DNA is a nucleic acid molecule with double-helical structures that are special symmetrical structures attracting great attention of numerous researchers. The super-long elastic slender rod, an important structural model of DNA and other long-train molecules, is a useful tool in analysing the symmetrical properties and the stabilities of DNA. This paper studies the structural properties of a super-long elastic slender rod as a structural model of DNA by using Kirchhoff＇s analogue technique and presents the Noether symmetries of the model by using the method of infinitesimal transformation. Baaed on Kirchhoff＇s analogue it analyses the generalized Hamilton canonical equations. The infinitesimal transfornaationa with rcspect to the radial coordinnte, the gonarnlizod coordinates, and the Cluasi-momenta of 5he model are introduced. The Noether gymmetries and conserved qugntities of the model are obtained.
The Lie symmetries and conserved quantities of a two-dimensional nonlinear diffusion equation ot concentration are considered. Based on the invariance of the two-dimensional nonlinear diffusion equation of concentration under the infinitesimal transformation with respect to the generalized coordinates and time, the determining equations of Lie symmetries are presented. The Lie groups of transformation and infinitesimal generators of this equation are obtained. The conserved quantities associated with the nonlinear diffusion equation of concentration are derived by integrating the characteristic equations. Also, the solutions of the two-dimensional nonlinear diffusion equation of concentration can be obtained.
This paper focuses on studying Noether symmetries and conservation laws of the discrete mechanico-electricM systems with the nonconservative and the dissipative forces. Based on the invariance of discrete Hamilton action of the systems under the infinitesimal transformation with respect to the generalized coordinates, the generalized electrical quantities and time, it presents the discrete analogue of variational principle, the discrete analogue of Lagrange-Maxwell equations, the discrete analogue of Noether theorems for Lagrange Maxwell and Lagrange mechanico-electrical systems. Also, the discrete Noether operator identity and the discrete Noether-type conservation laws are obtained for these systems. An actual example is given to illustrate these results.

A field method for integrating the equations of motion for mechanico-electrical coupling dynamical systems is studied. Two examples in mechanico-electrical engineering are given to illustrate this method.
A discrete total variation calculus with variable time steps is presented for mechanico-electrical systems where there exist non-potential and dissipative forces. By using this discrete variation calculus, the symplectic-energy-first integrators for mechanico-electrical systems are derived. To do this, the time step adaptation is employed. The discrete variational principle and the Euler-Lagrange equation are derived for the systems. By using this discrete algorithm it is shown that mechanico-electrical systems are not symplectic and their energies are not conserved unless they are Lagrange mechanico-electrical systems. A practical example is presented to illustrate these results.

The operators of discrete transformation and discrete differentiation to the right and left are introduced for the systems. Based on the invariance of discrete Hamilton action on nonregular lattices of the systems with the nonconserved forces under the infinitesimal transformations with respect to the time and generalized coordinates, we give the discrete analog of generalized variational formula. From this formula we derive the discrete analog of generalized Noether-type identity, and then we present the generalized quasi-extremal equations and properties of these equations for the systems. We also obtain the discrete analog of Noether-type conserved laws and the discrete analog of generalized Noether theorems for the systems. We discuss an example to illustrate these results.

The theory of velocity-dependent symmetries(or Lie symmetry) and non-Noether conserved quantities are presented corresponding to both the continuous and discrete electromechanical systems.Firstly,based on the invariance of Lagrange-Maxwell equations under infinitesimal transformations with respect to generalized coordinates and generalized charge quantities,the definition and the determining equations of velocity-dependent symmetry are obtained for continuous electromechanical systems;the Lie's theorem and the non-Noether conserved quantity of this symmetry are produced associated with continuous electromechanical systems.Secondly,the operators of transformation and the operators of differentiation are introduced in the space of discrete variables;a series of commuting relations of discrete vector operators are defined.Thirdly,based on the invariance of discrete Lagrange-Maxwell equations under infinitesimal transformations with respect to generalized coordinates and generalized charge quantities,the definition and the determining equations of velocity-dependent symmetry are obtained associated with discrete electromechanical systems;the Lie's theorem and the non-Noether conserved quantity are proved for the discrete electromechanical systems.This paper has shown that the discrete analogue of conserved quantity can be directly demonstrated by the commuting relation of discrete vector operators.Finally,an example is discussed to illustrate the results.

We propose a new concept of the conformal invariance and the conserved quantities for holonomic systems with quasi-coordinates. A one-parameter infinitesimal transformation group and its infinitesimal transformation vector of generators for holonomic systems with quasi-coordinates are described in detail. The conformal factor in the determining equations of the Lie symmetry is found. The necessary and sufficient conditions of conformal invariance, which are simultaneously of Lie symmetry, are given. The conformal invariance may lead to corresponding Hojman conserved quantities when the conformal invariance satisfies some conditions. Finally, an illustration example is introduced to demonstrate the application of the result.

The one-parameter infinitesimal transformation group and infinitesimal transformation vector of generator are described in detail. The conformal factor in the determining equations under second-class Mei symmetry is found. The relationship between Appell system＇s conformal invariance and Mei symmetry are discussed. And Appell system＇s conformal invariance under second-class Mei symmetry may lead to corresponding Hojman conserved quantities when the conformal invariance satisfies some conditions. Lastly, an example is provided to illustrate the application of the result.
