The geometrical parameters of the sealing members are optimized by means of heat transfer analysis and complex method. The analysis results indicate that the shallow spiral grooves can generate hydrodynamic pressure while the rotating ring rotates and the bearing force of the fluid film in spiral groove end faces is much larger than that in the flat end faces. The deformation increases the bearing force of the fluid film in flat end faces, but it decreases the hydrodynamic pressure of the fluid film in spiral groove end faces. The gap dimensions which determine the characteristics of the fluid film is obtained by coupling analysis of the frictional heat and the thermal deformation in consideration of the equilibrium condition of the bearing force and the closing force. For different gap dimensions, the relation- ship between the closing force and the leakage rate is also investigated, based on which the leakage rate can be controlled by adjusting the closing force.展开更多

When the system reliability cannot be expressed as a function of element reliability, we have to apply some heuristic methods for optimization based on connectivity of the network. The calculation structure of connectivity of complex network is analyzed in the paper. The coefficient matrixes of Taylor second order expansion of the system connectivity is generated based on the calculation structure of connectivity of complex network. An optimal schedule is achieved based on genetic algorithms （GA）. Fitness of seeds is calculated using the Taylor expansion function of system connectivity. Precise connectivity of the optimal schedule and the Taylor expansion function of system connectivity can be achieved by the approved Minty method or the recursive decomposition algorithm. When error between approximate connectivity and the precise value exceeds the assigned value, the optimization process is continued using GA, and the Taylor function of system connectivity needs to be renewed. The optimization process is called iterative GA. Iterative GA can be used in the large network for optimal reliability attribution. One temporary optimal result will be generated every time in the iteration process. These temporary optimal results approach the real optimal results. They can be regarded as a group of approximate optimal results useful in the real project.展开更多

Due to finding solution which is closer to realistic characteristics, load forecasting, market price errors and the uncertainties related to the variable output power of wind based DG units are put in consideration. This work employs NSGA-II accompanied by the fuzzy set theory to solve the aforementioned multi-objective problem. The proposed scheme finally leads to a solution with a minimum voltage deviation, a maximum voltage stability, lower amount of pollutant and lower cost. The cost includes the installation costs of new equipment, reconfiguration costs, power loss cost, reliability cost, cost of energy purchased from power market, upgrade costs of lines and operation and maintenance costs of DGs. Therefore, the proposed methodology improves power quality, reliability and security in lower costs besides its preserve, with the operational indices of power distribution networks in acceptable level. To validate the proposed methodology's usefulness, it was applied on the IEEE 33-bus distribution system then the outcomes were compared with initial configuration.展开更多

文摘In this paper, the option pricing problem is formulated as a distributionally robust optimization problem, which seeks to minimize the worst case replication error for a given distributional uncertainty set(DUS) of the random underlying asset returns. The DUS is defined as a Wasserstein ball centred the empirical distribution of the underlying asset returns. It is proved that the proposed model can be reformulated as a computational tractable linear programming problem. Finally, the results of the empirical tests are presented to show the significance of the proposed approach.

文摘A distributionally robust model predictive control(DRMPC)scheme is proposed based on neural network(NN)modeling to achieve the trajectory tracking control of robot manipulators with state and control torque constraints.First,an NN is used to fit the motion data of robot manipulators for data-driven dynamic modeling,converting it into a linear prediction model through gradients.Then,by statistically analyzing the stochastic characteristics of the NN modeling errors,a distributionally robust model predictive controller is designed based on the chance constraints,and the optimization problem is transformed into a tractable quadratic programming(QP)problem under the distributionally robust optimization(DRO)framework.The recursive feasibility and convergence of the proposed algorithm are proven.Finally,the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified through numerical simulation.
文摘This research develops a comprehensive method to solve a combinatorial problem consisting of distribution system reconfiguration, capacitor allocation, and renewable energy resources sizing and siting simultaneously and to improve power system's accountability and system performance parameters. Due to finding solution which is closer to realistic characteristics, load forecasting, market price errors and the uncertainties related to the variable output power of wind based DG units are put in consideration. This work employs NSGA-II accompanied by the fuzzy set theory to solve the aforementioned multi-objective problem. The proposed scheme finally leads to a solution with a minimum voltage deviation, a maximum voltage stability, lower amount of pollutant and lower cost. The cost includes the installation costs of new equipment, reconfiguration costs, power loss cost, reliability cost, cost of energy purchased from power market, upgrade costs of lines and operation and maintenance costs of DGs. Therefore, the proposed methodology improves power quality, reliability and security in lower costs besides its preserve, with the operational indices of power distribution networks in acceptable level. To validate the proposed methodology's usefulness, it was applied on the IEEE 33-bus distribution system then the outcomes were compared with initial configuration.
文摘The nonisothermal effectiveness fcator for reaction with kinetics r=kc^m/(l+Kc)~a can be improved bycatalysts with nonuniform activity distribution.The optimal distribution function in one-dimensional modelwith which the effectiveness factor can be maximized is a δ-function which means that the activity of thecatalyst should be concentrated on a layer with negligible thickness in a precise locationfrom the centerof pellets.The general equations for predicting the value ofand maximum effectiveness factor as a functionof thermodynamic,kinetic and transport parameters are derived and they can be given explicitly in the case ofa=O,m=a or isothermal reaction.An active layer with definite thickness and a deviation from the optimal locationboth decrease thevalue of the effectiveness factor.It has been shown numerically that the effectiveness factor decreases slightlywith an active layer at the inner side of x but seriously at outer side.

文摘To meet the requirements of modern air combat,an integrated fire/flight control(IFFC)system is designed to achieve automatic precision tracking and aiming for armed helicopters and release the pilot from heavy target burden.Considering the complex dynamic characteristics and the couplings of armed helicopters,an improved automatic attack system is con-structed to integrate the fire control system with the flight con-trol system into a unit.To obtain the optimal command signals,the algorithm is investigated to solve nonconvex optimization problems by the contracting Broyden Fletcher Goldfarb Shanno(C-BFGS)algorithm combined with the trust region method.To address the uncertainties in the automatic attack system,the memory nominal distribution and Wasserstein distance are introduced to accurately characterize the uncertainties,and the dual solvable problem is analyzed by using the duality the-ory,conjugate function,and dual norm.Simulation results verify the practicality and validity of the proposed method in solving the IFFC problem on the premise of satisfactory aiming accu-racy.
