The algorithm and the numerical implementation are applied to aerodynamic designs. Evolutionary algorithms （EAs） and the Pareto front concept are used to solve practical design problems in industry for its robustness in capturing convex, concave, discrete or discontinuous Pareto fronts of multi-objective optimization problems. However, the process is time-consuming. Therefore, deterministic optimization methods are introduced to capture the Pareto front, and the types of the captured Pareto front are explained. Numerical experiments show that the deterministic optimization method is a good alternative to EAs for capturing any convex and some concave Pareto fronts in multi-criterion aerodynamic optimization problems due to its efficiency.展开更多

The combination of the two methods will make it possible to overcome their weaknesses. Based on the simulated annealing genetic algorithm （SAGA） and the simplex algorithm, an efficient and robust 2-D nonlinear method for seismic travel-time inversion is presented in this paper. First we do a global search over a large range by SAGA and then do a rapid local search using the simplex method. A multi-scale tomography method is adopted in order to reduce non-uniqueness. The velocity field is divided into different spatial scales and velocities at the grid nodes are taken as unknown parameters. The model is parameterized by a bi-cubic spline function. The finite-difference method is used to solve the forward problem while the hybrid method combining multi-scale SAGA and simplex algorithms is applied to the inverse problem. The algorithm has been applied to a numerical test and a travel-time perturbation test using an anomalous low-velocity body. For a practical example, it is used in the study of upper crustal velocity structure of the A＇nyemaqen suture zone at the north-east edge of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The model test and practical application both prove that the method is effective and robust.展开更多

文摘The structured low-rank model for parallel magnetic resonance(MR)imaging can efficiently reconstruct MR images with limited auto-calibration signals.To improve the reconstruction quality of MR images,we integrate the joint sparsity and sparsifying transform learning(JTL)into the simultaneous auto-calibrating and k-space estimation(SAKE)structured low-rank model,named JTLSAKE.The alternate direction method of multipliers is exploited to solve the resulting optimization problem,and the optimized gradient method is used to improve the convergence speed.In addition,a graphics processing unit is used to accelerate the proposed algorithm.The experimental results on four in vivo human datasets demonstrate that the reconstruction quality of the proposed algorithm is comparable to that of JTL-based low-rank modeling of local k-space neighborhoods with parallel imaging(JTL-PLORAKS),and the proposed algorithm is 46 times faster than the JTL-PLORAKS,requiring only 4 s to reconstruct a 200×200 pixels MR image with 8 channels.

文摘In this paper, a new derivative free trust region method is developed based on the conic interpolation model for the unconstrained optimization. The conic interpolation model is built by means of the quadratic model function, the collinear scaling formula, quadratic approximation and interpolation. All the parameters in this model are determined by objective function interpolation condition. A new derivative free method is developed based upon this model and the global convergence of this new method is proved without any information on gradient.

文摘Chemical batch processes have become significant in chemical manufacturing. In these processes, large numbers of chemical products are produced to satisfy human demands in daily life. Recently, economy globalization has resulted, in growing worldwide competitions in tradi.tional chemical .process industry. In order to keep competitive in the global marketplace, each company must optimize its production management and set up a reactive system for market fluctuation. Scheduling is the core of production management in chemical processes. The goal of this paper is to review the recent developments in this challenging area. Classifications of batch scheduling problems and optimization methods are introduced. A comparison of six typical models is shown in a general benchmark example from the literature. Finally, challenges and applications in future research are discussed.

文摘Attempts for higher output power and thermal efficiency of gas turbines make the inlet temperature of turbine to be far beyond the material melting temperature.Therefore,to protect the airfoil in gas turbine from hot gas and eventually prolong the lifetime of the blade,internal and film cooling structures with better thermal performance and cooling effectiveness are urgently needed.However,the traditional way of proceeding involves numerous simulations,additional experiments,and separate trials.Optimization of turbine cooling structures is an effective way to achieve better structures with higher overall performances while considering the multiple objectives,disciplines or subsystems.In this context,this paper reviews optimization research works on film cooling structures and internal cooling structures in gas turbines by means of various optimization methods.This review covers the following aspects:(A)optimization of film cooling conducted on flat plates and on turbine blades or vanes;(B)optimization of jet impingement cooling structures;(C)optimization of rib shapes,dimple shapes,pin–fin arrays in the cooling channels;(D)optimization of U-bend shaped cooling channels,and internal cooling systems of turbine blades or vanes.The review shows that through a reliable and accurate optimization procedure combined with conjugate heat transfer analysis,higher overall thermal performance can be acquired for single-objective or multi-objectives balanced by other constrained conditions.Future ways forward are pointed out in this review.
