It is known to be an NP-hard problem. Most of the algorithms used in solving FJSP problem are categorized as metaheuristic methods. Some of these methods normally consume more CPU time and some other methods are more complicated which make them di cult to code and not easy to reproduce. This paper proposes a modified iterated greedy(IG) algorithm to deal with FJSP problem in order to provide a simpler metaheuristic, which is easier to code and to reproduce than some other much more complex methods. This is done by separating the classical IG into two phases. Each phase is used to solve a sub-problem of the FJSP: sequencing and routing sub-problems. A set of dispatching rules are employed in the proposed algorithm for the sequencing and machine selection in the construction phase of the solution. To evaluate the performance of proposed algorithm, some experiments including some famous FJSP benchmarks have been conducted. By compared with other algorithms, the experimental results show that the presented algorithm is competitive and able to find global optimum for most instances. The simplicity of the proposed IG provides an e ective method that is also easy to apply and consumes less CPU time in solving the FJSP problem.展开更多

However, only a few studies have considered them simultaneously. This paper solves the integrated production and transportation scheduling problem(IPTSP) in hybrid flow shops, which is an extension of the hybrid flow shop scheduling problem(HFSP). In addition to the production scheduling on machines, the transportation scheduling process on automated guided vehicles(AGVs)is considered as another optimization process. In this problem, the transfer tasks of jobs are performed by a certain number of AGVs. To solve it, we make some preparation(including the establishment of task pool, the new solution representation and the new solution evaluation), which can ensure that satisfactory solutions can be found efficiently while appropriately reducing the scale of search space. Then, an effective genetic tabu search algorithm is used to minimize the makespan. Finally, two groups of instances are designed and three types of experiments are conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed method. The results show that the proposed method is effective to solve the integrated production and transportation scheduling problem.展开更多

However, the present results indicate that during late summer(from mid-August to the beginning of September), the anomalous anticyclone leads to more rainfall over central southern China(CSC), a region quite different from preceding periods. The uniqueness of late summer is found to be related to the dramatic change in climatological monsoon flows: southerlies over southern China during early and middle summer but easterlies during late summer. Therefore, the anomalous anticyclone, which shows a southerly anomaly over southern China, enhances monsoonal southerlies and induces more rainfall along the rain band during early and middle summer. During late summer,however, the anomalous anticyclone reflects a complicated change in monsoon flows: it changes the path, rather than the intensity, of monsoon flows. Specifically, during late summers of suppressed convection in the tropical WNP, southerlies dominate from the South China Sea to southern China, and during late summers of enhanced convection, northeasterlies dominate from the East China Sea to southern China, causing more and less rainfall in CSC, respectively.展开更多

文摘Based on the previous findings that the presence of hydroxyl groups on the outer surface is crucial for maintaining skeletal stability,we propose a strategy modified Cu/SAPO-34 using Pr ions in this study.Therefore,we conducted several measurements to investigate the effect of Pr ions on the lowtemperature hydrothermal stability of Cu/SAPO-34.We find that Pr exists only on the surface of Cu/SAPO-34 as ions and oxides,with Pr^(3+)ions playing a protective role in occupying surface acidic sites.The addition of small amounts of Pr leads to the re-dispersion of Cu,resulting in improved lowtemperature selective catalytic reduction(SCR)activity in the as-synthesized samples.Furthermore,it enhances the resistance to decomposition of the Si-(OH)-Al framework during low-temperature hydrothermal aging,thereby preserving the framework structure and allowing detached active Cu species to return to exchangeable positions,ultimately restoring SCR activity.However,as the Pr content increases,the enhanced acidity causes some structural damage,gradually weakening the protective effect.Our work demonstrates that Pr modification is a simple and effective solution to the issue of poor lowtemperature hydrothermal stability in Cu/SAPO-34,providing a promising way for the application of light rare earth elements.

文摘The urban spatial structure reflects a city’s development history,cultural heritage,and socio-economic conditions.A rational urban spatial structure is crucial for urban development.This study focuses on the main urban area of Nanjing,analyzing POI and nighttime light data from 2016 to 2020.Utilizing kernel density estimation and coupling coordination models,it explores the temporal and spatial evolution characteristics of Nanjing’s urban spatial structure.Geographic detectors are employed to assess the impact of various factors on this structure.The findings indicate that:(1)Nanjing’s urban spatial structure displays a pattern of central aggregation and peripheral expansion,with high brightness concentrated in the urban center and a significant increase in peripheral brightness,signaling initial success in establishing urban subcenters;(2)The coupling relationship between nighttime light brightness and POI density has strengthened,suggesting improved coordination of the urban spatial structure;(3)The evolution of Nanjing’s urban spatial structure results from the combined effects of multiple factors,including economic level,population distribution,transportation conditions,and policy planning.

文摘With the growing adoption of automated guided vehicles(AGVs)in various industries,the integrated production and transportation scheduling problem(IPTSP)has emerged as a critical research focus.The IPTSP is classified as a strongly NP-hard problem due to the simultaneous scheduling of two resources:machines and transportation equipment.Meta-heuristic algorithms are one of the most popular and effective approaches to solving this problem.However,their effectiveness heavily depends on the choice of solution representation,which influences both the algorithm’s search space and convergence speed.This paper reviews the existing encoding and decoding methods and proposes a novel active decoding approach.Based on different combinations of encoding and decoding methods,six solution representations are identified,among which the newly proposed representation offers a trade-off between the search space and the algorithm’s efficiency.Specifically,four scenarios of IPTSP under different assumptions are first analyzed.Next,the variations in the six solution representations across unused scenarios and different layouts,as well as their respective encoding spaces and qualities,are summarized.Subsequently,the search efficiency of the six solution representations is evaluated using a genetic algorithm to analyze their performance under different scenarios,layouts,time ratios,and number of AGVs.Finally,the advantages,disadvantages and applicable scenes for each solution representation are summarized based on the experimental results and analysis.These findings provide valuable insights for designing more efficient algorithms to address the IPTSP.

文摘The architecture and geodynamics of intracontinental orogens remain a fundamental geological challenge.The Xing’an-Mongolia intracontinental orogenic belt(XMIOB),superimposed on the eastern Central Asian Orogenic Belt(CAOB),provides key insights into intracontinental orogenic belt dynamics.However,its architecture,deformation patterns,and geodynamic processes are poorly understood.This study integrates geological mapping,structural analysis,EBSD quartz c-axis fabrics,seismic reflection interpretation,and zircon U-Pb geochronology to unravel the XMIOB’s tectonic evolution and compare it with global intracontinental orogenic belts.Our findings reveal that the XMIOB is shaped by alternating fold-thrust belts and metamorphic zones,dominantly controlled by the inversion of pre-existing extensional structures.EBSD analysis indicates mid-temperature(400℃–500℃)ductile deformation in the deep crust,while seismic profiles highlight structural decoupling driven by a décollement zone.Integrated crustal thickness reconstructions from zircon Eu/Eu*ratios delineate three tectonic stages:Late Carboniferous-Permian asthenospheric upwelling induced crustal thinning from∼50 km to∼35 km,forming lithospheric weak zones with Buchan-type metamorphism and bimodal magmatism;Late Permian-Middle Triassic mantle subduction triggered compressional thickening(∼55 km),fold-thrust belt formation,and tectonic inversion of early extensional faults,exposing metamorphic zones;from the Middle Triassic continued mantle subduction and deep-crustal decoupling drove large-scale lateral extrusion and dextral shear,reshaping the XMIOB architecture.Comparisons with global intracontinental orogenic belts highlight two key traits of intracontinental orogenic belt evolution:pre-orogenic lithospheric thinning generates inherited weak zones that localize subsequent deformation;inherited extensional features dictate the final architecture,producing the systematic alternation of metamorphic zones and fold–thrust belts.

文摘As one of the most classical scheduling problems,flexible job shop scheduling problems(FJSP)find widespread applications in modern intelligent manufacturing systems.However,the majority of meta-heuristic methods for solving FJSP in the literature are population-based evolutionary algorithms,which are complex and time-consuming.In this paper,we propose a fast effective singlesolution based local search algorithm with an innovative adaptive weighting-based local search(AWLS)technique for solving FJSP.The adaptive weighting technique assigns weights to each operation and adaptively updates them during the exploration.AWLS integrates a Tabu Search strategy and the adaptive weighting technique to smooth the landscape of the search space and enhance the exploration diversity.Computational experiments on 313 well-known benchmark instances demonstrate that AWLS is highly competitive with state-of-the-art algorithms in terms of both solution quality and computational efficiency,despite of its simplicity.Specifically,AWLS improves the previous best-known results in the literature on 33 instances and match the best-known results on the remaining ones except for only one under the same time limit of up to 300 s.As a strongly non-deterministic polynomia(NP)-hard problem which has been extensively studied for nearly half a century,breaking the records on these classic instances is an arduous task.Nevertheless,AWLS establishes new records on 8 challenging instances whose previous best records were established by a state-of-the-art meta-heuristic algorithm and a famous industrial solver.

文摘The flexible job shop scheduling problem(FJSP) is considered as an important problem in the modern manufacturing system. It is known to be an NP-hard problem. Most of the algorithms used in solving FJSP problem are categorized as metaheuristic methods. Some of these methods normally consume more CPU time and some other methods are more complicated which make them di cult to code and not easy to reproduce. This paper proposes a modified iterated greedy(IG) algorithm to deal with FJSP problem in order to provide a simpler metaheuristic, which is easier to code and to reproduce than some other much more complex methods. This is done by separating the classical IG into two phases. Each phase is used to solve a sub-problem of the FJSP: sequencing and routing sub-problems. A set of dispatching rules are employed in the proposed algorithm for the sequencing and machine selection in the construction phase of the solution. To evaluate the performance of proposed algorithm, some experiments including some famous FJSP benchmarks have been conducted. By compared with other algorithms, the experimental results show that the presented algorithm is competitive and able to find global optimum for most instances. The simplicity of the proposed IG provides an e ective method that is also easy to apply and consumes less CPU time in solving the FJSP problem.

文摘The connection between production scheduling and transportation scheduling is getting closer in smart manufacturing system, and both of those problems are summarized as NP-hard problems. However, only a few studies have considered them simultaneously. This paper solves the integrated production and transportation scheduling problem(IPTSP) in hybrid flow shops, which is an extension of the hybrid flow shop scheduling problem(HFSP). In addition to the production scheduling on machines, the transportation scheduling process on automated guided vehicles(AGVs)is considered as another optimization process. In this problem, the transfer tasks of jobs are performed by a certain number of AGVs. To solve it, we make some preparation(including the establishment of task pool, the new solution representation and the new solution evaluation), which can ensure that satisfactory solutions can be found efficiently while appropriately reducing the scale of search space. Then, an effective genetic tabu search algorithm is used to minimize the makespan. Finally, two groups of instances are designed and three types of experiments are conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed method. The results show that the proposed method is effective to solve the integrated production and transportation scheduling problem.

文摘Intelligent process planning(PP)is one of the most important components in an intelligent manufacturing system and acts as a bridge between product designing and practical manufacturing.PP is a nondeterministic polynomial-time(NP)-hard problem and,as existing mathematical models are not formulated in linear forms,they cannot be solved well to achieve exact solutions for PP problems.This paper proposes a novel mixed-integer linear programming(MILP)mathematical model by considering the network topology structure and the OR nodes that represent a type of OR logic inside the network.Precedence relationships between operations are discussed by raising three types of precedence relationship matrices.Furthermore,the proposed model can be programmed in commonly-used mathematical programming solvers,such as CPLEX,Gurobi,and so forth,to search for optimal solutions for most open problems.To verify the effectiveness and generality of the proposed model,five groups of numerical experiments are conducted on well-known benchmarks.The results show that the proposed model can solve PP problems effectively and can obtain better solutions than those obtained by the state-ofthe-art algorithms.

文摘Perovs kite-type Li_(0.33)La_(0.56)TiO_(3)(LLTO)shows greate r advantages than organic liquid electrolytes to be used in all-so lid-state lithium-ion batteries with high energy densities.Ionic liquid[BMIM][BF4]was used to improve the properties of Li_(0.33)La_(0.56)TiO_(3)by attrition milling in this study.The microstructure,crystallinity and lithium-ion conductivity of the samples were measured by scanning electron microscopy(SEM),X-ray diffraction(XRD),and impedance spectroscopy(IS).The total ionic conductivities of the samples LLTO+x wt%[BMIM][BF4]increase upon adding[BMIM][BF4]and the maximum conductivity reaches4.71×10^(-4)S/cm when x=12.5 wt%.The enhancement of the total conductivity is ascribed to the bridging role of the ionic liquid among grains,as evidenced by the low activation energy of 0.17-0.25 eV and the SEM observation.The Li+transference numbers of the hybrid samples are all lower than that of the pure LLTO,indicating the existence of electronic conductions.The hybrid mate rial with a mixed conductivity and good stability in the atmosphere can find uses in all-solid-state lithium-ion batteries to improve the interface contact between electrolytes and electrodes.

文摘This study investigates the circulation and precipitation anomalies associated with different configurations of the western North Pacific subtropical high(WNPSH)and the East Asian westerly jet(EAJ)in summer on interannual timescales.The in-phase configuration of the WNPSH and EAJ is characterized by the westward(eastward)extension of the WNPSH and the southward(northward)shift of the EAJ,which is consistent with the general correspondence between their variations.The out-of-phase configuration includes the residual cases.We find that the in-phase configuration manifests itself as a typical meridional teleconnection.For instance,there is an anticyclonic(cyclonic)anomaly over the tropical western North Pacific and a cyclonic(anticyclonic)anomaly over the mid-latitudes of East Asia in the lower troposphere.These circulation anomalies are more conducive to rainfall anomalies over the Yangtze River basin and south Japan than are the individual WNPSH or EAJ.By contrast,for the out-of-phase configuration,the mid-latitude cyclonic(anticyclonic)anomaly is absent,and the lower-tropospheric circulation anomalies feature an anticyclonic(cyclonic)anomaly with a large meridional extension.Correspondingly,significant rainfall anomalies move northward to North China and the northern Korean Peninsula.Further results indicate that the out-of-phase configuration is associated with the developing phase of ENSO,with strong and significant sea surface temperature(SST)anomalies in the tropical central and eastern Pacific which occur simultaneously during summer and persist into the following winter.This is sharply different from the in-phase configuration,for which the tropical SSTs are not a necessity.

文摘It is well known that suppressed convection in the tropical western North Pacific(WNP) induces an anticyclonic anomaly,and this anticyclonic anomaly results in more rainfall along the East Asian rain band through more water vapor transport during summer, as well as early and middle summer. However, the present results indicate that during late summer(from mid-August to the beginning of September), the anomalous anticyclone leads to more rainfall over central southern China(CSC), a region quite different from preceding periods. The uniqueness of late summer is found to be related to the dramatic change in climatological monsoon flows: southerlies over southern China during early and middle summer but easterlies during late summer. Therefore, the anomalous anticyclone, which shows a southerly anomaly over southern China, enhances monsoonal southerlies and induces more rainfall along the rain band during early and middle summer. During late summer,however, the anomalous anticyclone reflects a complicated change in monsoon flows: it changes the path, rather than the intensity, of monsoon flows. Specifically, during late summers of suppressed convection in the tropical WNP, southerlies dominate from the South China Sea to southern China, and during late summers of enhanced convection, northeasterlies dominate from the East China Sea to southern China, causing more and less rainfall in CSC, respectively.

文摘Capillary electrochromatography(CEC)plays a significant role in chiral separation via the double separation principle,partition coefficient difference between the two phases,and electroosmotic flow-driven separation.Given the distinct properties of the inner wall stationary phase(SP),the separation ability of each SP differs from one another.Particularly,it provides large room for promising applications of open tubular capillary electrochromatography(OT-CEC).We divided the OT-CEC SPs developed over the past four years into six types:ionic liquids,nanoparticle materials,microporous materials,biomaterials,non-nanopolymers,and others,to mainly introduce their characteristics in chiral drug separation.There also added a few classic SPs that occurred within ten years as supplements to enrich the features of each SP.Additionally,we discuss their applications in metabolomics,food,cosmetics,environment,and biology as analytes in addition to chiral drugs.OT-CEC plays an increasingly significant role in chiral separation and may promote the development of capillary electrophoresis(CE)combined with other instruments in recent years,such as CE with mass spectrometry(CE/MS)and CE with ultraviolet light detector(CE/UV).

文摘Recent researches show that there are some anomalies,which are not satisfied with common sense,appearing in some special permutation flow shop scheduling problems(PFSPs).These anomalies can be divided into three different types,such as changing the processing time of some operations,changing the number of total jobs and changing the number of total machines.This paper summarizes these three types of anomalies showing in the special PFSPs and gives some examples to make them better understood.The extended critical path is proposed and the reason why these anomalies happen in special PFSPs is given:anomalies will occur in these special PFSPs when the time of the operations on the reverse critical path changes.After that,the further reason for these anomalies is presented that when any one of these three types of anomalies happens,the original constraint in the special PFSPs is destroyed,which makes the anomalies appear.Finally,the application of these anomalies in production practice is given through examples and also with the possible research directions.The main contribution of this research is analyzing the intial reason why the anomalies appear in special PFSPs and pointing out the application and the possible research directions of all these three types of anomalies.

文摘The meta-heuristic algorithm with local search is an excellent choice for the job-shop scheduling problem(JSP).However,due to the unique nature of the JSP,local search may generate infeasible neighbourhood solutions.In the existing literature,although some domain knowledge of the JSP can be used to avoid infeasible solutions,the constraint conditions in this domain knowledge are sufficient but not necessary.It may lose many feasible solutions and make the local search inadequate.By analysing the causes of infeasible neighbourhood solutions,this paper further explores the domain knowledge contained in the JSP and proposes the sufficient and necessary constraint conditions to find all feasible neighbourhood solutions,allowing the local search to be carried out thoroughly.With the proposed conditions,a new neighbourhood structure is designed in this paper.Then,a fast calculation method for all feasible neighbourhood solutions is provided,significantly reducing the calculation time compared with ordinary methods.A set of standard benchmark instances is used to evaluate the performance of the proposed neighbourhood structure and calculation method.The experimental results show that the calculation method is effective,and the new neighbourhood structure has more reliability and superiority than the other famous and influential neighbourhood structures,where 90%of the results are the best compared with three other well-known neighbourhood structures.Finally,the result from a tabu search algorithm with the new neighbourhood structure is compared with the current best results,demonstrating the superiority of the proposed neighbourhood structure.
