We examine the asymptotic stability of solution to a pair of coupled linear partial differential equations which describe the temperature distribution and displacement within a one-dimensional thermoelastic with a natural boundary condition. Finally,we set forth a kind of idea and method to Hansen's conjection (sce[1]).     

Finite element modeling for analysis of cracked cylindrical pipes

The characteristic properties of shell element with similar shapes are used to generate a so-called super element for the analysis of the crack problems for cylindrical pressure vessels. The formulation is processed by matrix condensation without the involvement of special treatment. This method can deal with various singularity problems and it also presents excellent results to crack problems for cylindrical shell. Especially,the knowledge of the kind of singular order is not necessary in super element generation; it is very economical in terms of computer memory and programming. This method also exhibits versatility to solve the problem of kinked crack at cylindrical shell.

A kind of Godunov’s scheme, which satisfies the boundary entropy condition, was given. By use of the scheme, numerical simulation for the weak entropy solution to the initial-boundary value problem of scalar conservation laws is conducted.     

Helping Students to Internalize the Grammar Rules Through Communicative Activities

English grammar tends to be treated as a kind of knowledge explained and transmitted at tertiary level in China.Students engage in memorizing grammar rules,but they are unable to use them correctly and appropriately when speaking and writing.This article attempts to help students to make use of the rules through meaningful practice in grammar class.It is based on communicative approach and of a kind of eclecticism.The activities mentioned provide students with some opportunities to interact in classroom and use knowledge of English grammar in social contexts in which communication takes place and through which the rules will be internalized accordingly.     

The Understanding of Metaphoric Utterance

Metaphor utterance is different from any other kind of general utterances,the meaning of which is more complicated and mild. Metaphoric utterance is also precise and vivid,which can create a deep impression on the listeners. According to compare with the traditional approaches the thesis points out; the context-dependence method is well applied to the understanding of all metaphorical utterances. Only when you grasp the whole meaning of the context,can you know the specific meaning of each sentence.     

Implications of Memetics on Foreign Language Pragmatic Instruction

The main purpose of foreign language teaching(FLT) is not only to transmit knowledge of FL,but also to cultivate the pragmatic ability of learners on the base of practical communicative background.However,in what way that pragmatic instruction can be carried out effectively and reasonably remains a problem in FLT.Memetics as a kind of new theory which explains cultural evolution tends to place some implications on FL pragmatic instruction.This article focuses on the creative approaches of pragmatic instruction with the combination to the transmittable features of meme-copying-fidelity,fecundity and longevity.     

On Joseph-Kindness to his Brothers

In this paper,Joseph,kind to his brothers whom had once nearly killed him before will be discussed.Years of terrible suffering when Joseph has been sold to Egypt as a slave,from the bottom towards the top,he finally became the prime minister to help the Egyptian pharaohs with seven years of abundant and famine.When his brothers came to Egypt to buy coin to get alive,as a prime minister,Joseph did not use his power to punish them but forgive all after identifying their repentance.Forgiving all and asking his brothers to reunite the whole family and relatives,Joseph also settles his father and brothers in the best of the land,dwell in the land of Goshen admitted by Egyp tian pharaohs.Conclusion:Every one of us shall be as kind as Joseph,forget the evil things treated to us before,and forgive the persons,who betrayed or framed before:a disposition to be lenient in pardoning others.

Fused empirical mode decomposition and wavelets for locating combined damage in a truss-type structure through vibration analysis

Structural health monitoring （SHM） is a relevant topic for civil systems and involves the monitoring, data processing and interpretation to evaluate the condition of a structure, in order to detect damage. In real structures, two or more sites or types of damage can be present at the same time. It has been shown that one kind of damaged condition can interfere with the detection of another kind of damage, leading to an incorrect assessment about the structure condition. Identifying combined damage on struc- tures still represents a challenge for condition monitoring, because the reliable identification of a combined damaged condition is a difficult task. Thus, this work presents a fusion of methodologies, where a single wavelet-packet and the empirical mode decom- position （EMD） method are combined with artificial neural networks （ANNs） for the automated and online identification-location of single or multiple-combined damage in a scaled model of a five-bay truss-type structure. Results showed that the proposed methodology is very efficient and reliable for identifying and locating the three kinds of damage, as well as their combinations. Therefore, this methodology could be applied to detection-location of damage in real truss-type structures, which would help to improve the characteristics and life span of real structures.
