文摘Conformal truss-like lattice structures face significant manufacturability challenges in additive manufac-turing due to overhang angle limitations.To address this problem,we propose a novel angle-constrained optimization method grounded in the global adjustment of nodal coordinates.First,a build direction is selected to minimize the number of violating struts.Then,an angular-constraint matrix is assembled from strut direction vectors,and analytical sensitivities with respect to nodal coordinates are derived to enable efficient constrained optimization under nonlinear angular inequality constraints.Numerical studies on two complex curved-surface lattices demonstrate that all overhang violations are eliminated while only minor changes are induced in global stiffness and strength.In particular,the maximum displacement of an ergonomic insole varies by only 2.87%after optimization.The results confirm the method’s versatility and engineering robustness,providing a practical approach for additive manufacturing-oriented lattice structure design.
文摘In active noise control,the optimal deployment of secondary sources is a critical factor influencing the noise reduction performance due to the spatial inhomogeneity of the sound field.Traditional methods,which rely on finite element analysis to model the sound field,are accurate but computationally intensive,leading to high costs in solving the deployment optimization problem.To address this issue,this paper proposes an expensive optimization method for secondary source deployment based on Interior Point Method-assisted Differential Evolution with Weibull distribution(IPMDEW).During the optimization process,a Kriging model is employed to construct a response surface,i.e.,a surrogate model,of the objective function.The surrogate model is used for the initial evaluation of the population,while the finite element model is utilized to verify promising individuals.A surrogate model update algorithm based on k-means clustering is designed to iteratively refine the model and enhance its accuracy.The IPMDEW algorithm utilizes the Weibull distribution-based weighted differential evolution for global exploration and switches to the gradient-based interior point method for refined local optimization when the population approaches convergence.The results demonstrate Kriging surrogate-assisted optimization method for secondary source deployment reduces the optimization time by 85.79%,i.e.,by 347.64 h,significantly improving optimization efficiency.Furthermore,the accuracy of the Kriging model continuously improves during the optimization process.The proposed method achieves a noise reduction of 58.32 dB,ensuring high optimization accuracy while substantially increasing efficiency.

文摘Lattice-type ultra-tall wind turbine towers are popular in China for their modular benefits in fabrication,transportation,and installation.Nonetheless,their conceptual design remains predominantly dependent on engineering experience,and a generally applicable approach is still absent.This study proposes a self-similar modular topology optimization framework for lattice-type wind turbine support structures and develops software for its application.A minimum weighted compliance formulation with a prescribed volume fraction is developed utilizing the variable density approach,wherein modular constraints and their corresponding sensitivity expressions are explicitly included.The method is applied to a reference wind turbine model to generate modular lattice configurations.The novel structural models are evaluated under three representative design load cases outlined in IEC 61400 by finite element analysis.Compared with the reference structure,the 12-layer self-similar modular design reduces the maximum deformation and von Mises stress by 39.5%and 51.1%,respectively,demonstrating a substantial stiffness improvement while preserving modularity.The suggested approach provides an efficient and practical tool for the conceptual design of modular lattice-type wind turbine towers.
文摘Droplet-based microfluidics is a transformative technology with applications across diverse scientific and industrial domains.However,predicting the droplet size generated by individual microchannels before experiments or simulations remains a significant challenge.In this study,we focus on a double T-junction microfluidic geometry and employ a hybrid modeling approach that combines machine learning with metaheuristic optimization to address this issue.Specifically,particle swarm optimization(PSO)is used to optimize the hyperparameters of a decision tree(DT)model,and its performance is compared with that of a DT optimized through grid search(GS).The hybrid models are developed to estimate the droplet diameter based on four parameters:the main width,side width,thickness,and flow rate ratio.The dataset of more than 300 cases,generated by a three-dimensional numerical model of the double T-junction,is used for training and testing.Multiple evaluation metrics confirm the predictive accuracy of the models.The results demonstrate that the proposed DT-PSO model achieves higher accuracy,with a coefficient of determination of 0.902 on the test data,while simultaneously reducing prediction time.This methodology holds the potential to minimize design iterations and accelerate the integration of microfluidic technology into the biological sciences.

文摘In this paper,a linear optimization method(LOM)for the design of terahertz circuits is presented,aimed at enhancing the simulation efficacy and reducing the time of the circuit design workflow.This method enables the rapid determination of optimal embedding impedance for diodes across a specific bandwidth to achieve maximum efficiency through harmonic balance simulations.By optimizing the linear matching circuit with the optimal embedding impedance,the method effectively segregates the simulation of the linear segments from the nonlinear segments in the frequency multiplier circuit,substantially improving the speed of simulations.The design of on-chip linear matching circuits adopts a modular circuit design strategy,incorporating fixed load resistors to simplify the matching challenge.Utilizing this approach,a 340 GHz frequency doubler was developed and measured.The results demonstrate that,across a bandwidth of 330 GHz to 342 GHz,the efficiency of the doubler remains above 10%,with an input power ranging from 98 mW to 141mW and an output power exceeding 13 mW.Notably,at an input power of 141 mW,a peak output power of 21.8 mW was achieved at 334 GHz,corresponding to an efficiency of 15.8%.

文摘Parameterized level-set method(PLSM)has been proposed and developed for many years,and is renowned for its efficacy in ad-dressing topology optimization challenges associated with intricate boundaries and nucleation of new holes.However,most pertinent investigations in the field rely predominantly on fixed background mesh,which is never remeshed.Consequently,the mesh element partitioned by material interface during the optimization process necessitates approximation by using artificial interpolation models to obtain its element stiffness or other properties.This paper introduces a novel approach to topology op-timization by integrating the PLSM with body-fitted adaptive mesh and Helmholtz-type filter.Primarily,combining the PLSM with body-fitted adaptive mesh enables the regeneration of mesh based on the zero level-set interface.This not only precludes the direct traversal of the material interface through the mesh element during the topology optimization process,but also improves the accuracy of calculation.Additionally,the incorporation of a Helmholtz-type partial differential equation filter,relying solely on mesh information essential for finite element discretization,serves to regulate the topological complexity and the minimum feature size of the optimized structure.Leveraging these advantages,the topology optimization program demonstrates its versa-tility by successfully addressing various design problems,encompassing the minimum mean compliance problem and minimum energy dissipation problem.Ultimately,the result of numerical example indicates that the optimized structure exhibits a dis-tinct and smooth boundary,affirming the effective control over both topological complexity and the minimum feature size of the optimized structure.

文摘The flow ripple caused by an axial piston pump may lead to pipe vibrations and lower hydraulic component reliability,which are of particular concern in hydraulic systems.The valve plate of the pump is considered the part most related to flow ripple,and its structural design is an important topic.In this study,an analytical model for the axial piston pump flow ripple was established and verified using a numerical analysis with computational fluid dynamics(CFD)calculations.Moreover,a parametric analysis of the valve plate was performed to investigate the critical parameters and their ranges.A fast optimization method,the rotation vector optimization method(RVOM),was proposed for the valve plate design and compared with the currently used optimization methods to prove its efficiency.As a constant-pressure pump works in different states of swashplate angle,outlet pressure,and pump speed,an optimization principle for the entire working status was proposed to achieve the overall reduction performance.A test rig for an aircraft hydraulic pump was established,and validation experiments were conducted.It was determined that the optimized pump could achieve reduction at multiple working statuses,and the largest pressure pulsation reduction ratios for the typical speed and speed sweep tests reached 64.7%and 71.7%,respectively.The model and method proposed in this study are proven to be effective and accurate.

文摘A time-varying optimization strategy for battery cluster power allocation is proposed to minimize energy loss in battery energy storage systems(BESS).First,the time-dependent loss characteristics of both storage and non-storage components in BESS are ana-lyzed.Based on this analysis,steady-state and transient methods for evaluating battery loss are proposed.Second,considering the distinct time-varying characteristics of various BESS components,the load-rate vs.equivalent-efficiency curve and the current-loss power component gradient field are introduced as analytical tools.These tools facilitate the derivation of optimization path for both time-varying and time-invariant energy compo-nents of BESS.Building on this foundation,a time-varying optimization strategy for battery cluster power allocation is developed,aiming to minimize energy loss while fully accounting for the dynamic characteristics of BESS.Compared to real-time optimization,this strategy prioritizes global optimality in the time domain,mitigates the risk of dimensionality curse,and enhances BESS efficiency.Finally,a Simulink/Simscape model is established based on real-world data to simulate internal component losses within BESS.The effectiveness of the proposed strategy is validated under a peak shaving scenario.Results indicate that,after optimization,the annual operational loss of BESS is reduced by 2.40%,while the energy round-trip efficiency is improved by 0.59%.

文摘Red-green-blue(RGB)beam combiners are widely used in scenarios such as augmented reality/virtual reality(AR/VR),laser projection,biochemical detection,and other fields.Optical waveguide combiners have attracted extensive attention due to their advantages of small size,high multiplexing efficiency,convenient mass production,and low cost.An RGB beam combiner based on directional couplers is designed,with a core-cladding relative refractive index difference of 0.75%.The RGB beam combiner is optimized from the perspective of parameter optimization.Using the beam propagation method(BPM),the relationship between the performance of the RGB beam combiner and individual parameters is studied,achieving preliminary optimization of the device’s performance.The key parameters of the RGB beam combiner are optimized using the entropy weight-technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution TOPSIS method,establishing the optimal parameter scheme and further improving the device’s performance indicators.The results show that after optimization,the multiplexing efficiencies for red,green,and blue lights,as well as the average multiplexing efficiency,reached 99.17%,99.76%,96.63%and 98.52%,respectively.The size of the RGB beam combiner is 4.768 mm×0.062 mm.

文摘The umbilical,a key component in offshore energy extraction,plays a vital role in ensuring the stable operation of the entire production system.The extensive variety of cross-sectional components creates highly complex layout combinations.Furthermore,due to constraints in component quantity and geometry within the cross-sectional layout,filler bodies must be incorporated to maintain cross-section performance.Conventional design approaches based on manual experience suffer from inefficiency,high variability,and difficulties in quantification.This paper presents a multi-level automatic filling optimization design method for umbilical cross-sectional layouts to address these limitations.Initially,the research establishes a multi-objective optimization model that considers compactness,balance,and wear resistance of the cross-section,employing an enhanced genetic algorithm to achieve a near-optimal layout.Subsequently,the study implements an image processing-based vacancy detection technique to accurately identify cross-sectional gaps.To manage the variability and diversity of these vacant regions,the research introduces a multi-level filling method that strategically selects and places filler bodies of varying dimensions,overcoming the constraints of uniform-size fillers.Additionally,the method incorporates a hierarchical strategy that subdivides the complex cross-section into multiple layers,enabling layer-by-layer optimization and filling.This approach reduces manufac-turing equipment requirements while ensuring practical production process feasibility.The methodology is validated through a specific umbilical case study.The results demonstrate improvements in compactness,balance,and wear resistance compared with the initial cross-section,offering novel insights and valuable references for filler design in umbilical cross-sections.
