Based on analysis of the seepage characteristics of an earth rock dam, a novel seepage safety monitoring model was constructed in this study. The nonlinear influence processes of the antecedent reservoir water level and rainfall were assumed to follow normal distributions. The particle swarm optimization （PSO） algorithm was used to optimize the model parameters so as to raise the fitting accuracy. In addition, a mutation factor was introduced to simulate the sudden increase in the piezometric level induced by short-duration heavy rainfall and the possible historical extreme reservoir water level during a typhoon. In order to verify the efficacy of this model, the earth rock dam of the Siminghu Reservoir was used as an example. The piezometric level at the SW1-2 measuring point during Typhoon Fitow in 2013 was fitted with the present model, and a corresponding theoretical expression was established. Comparison of fitting results of the piezometric level obtained from the present statistical model and traditional statistical model with monitored values during the typhoon shows that the present model has a higher fitting accuracy and can simulate the uprush feature of the seepage pressure during the typhoon perfectly.展开更多

In this method, a genetic algorithm （GA） and fuzzy discrete particle swarm optimization （FDPSO） are applied to optimize the direction of arrival and power parameters of the mode simultaneously.

By adopting MATLAB7.1, the extended particle swarm optimization algorithm was demonstrated in the resource leveling of power project scheduling. EPSO was compared with genetic algorithm (GA) and common PSO, the result indicates that the variance of the objective function of resource leveling is decreased by 7.9%, 18.2%, respectively, certifying the effectiveness and stronger global convergence ability of the EPSO.

文摘In recent years,numerical weather forecasting has been increasingly emphasized.Variational data assimilation furnishes precise initial values for numerical forecasting models,constituting an inherently nonlinear optimization challenge.The enormity of the dataset under consideration gives rise to substantial computational burdens,complex modeling,and high hardware requirements.This paper employs the Dual-Population Particle Swarm Optimization(DPSO)algorithm in variational data assimilation to enhance assimilation accuracy.By harnessing parallel computing principles,the paper introduces the Parallel Dual-Population Particle Swarm Optimization(PDPSO)Algorithm to reduce the algorithm processing time.Simulations were carried out using partial differential equations,and comparisons in terms of time and accuracy were made against DPSO,the Dynamic Weight Particle Swarm Algorithm(PSOCIWAC),and the TimeVarying Double Compression Factor Particle Swarm Algorithm(PSOTVCF).Experimental results indicate that the proposed PDPSO outperforms PSOCIWAC and PSOTVCF in convergence accuracy and is comparable to DPSO.Regarding processing time,PDPSO is 40%faster than PSOCIWAC and PSOTVCF and 70%faster than DPSO.
文摘Aiming to reduce the computational costs and converge to global optimum, a novel method is proposed to solve the optimization of a cost function in the estimation of direction of arrival （DOA）. In this method, a genetic algorithm （GA） and fuzzy discrete particle swarm optimization （FDPSO） are applied to optimize the direction of arrival and power parameters of the mode simultaneously. Firstly, the GA algorithm is applied to make the solution fall into the global searching. Secondly, the FDPSO method is utilized to narrow down the search field. In FDPSO, a chaotic factor and a crossover method are added to speed up the convergence. This approach has been demonstrated through some computational simulations. It is shown that the proposed algorithm can estimate both the DOA and the powers accurately. It is more efficient than some present methods, such as the Newton-like algorithm, Akaike information critical （AIC）, particle swarm optimization （PSO）, and genetic algorithm with particle swarm optimization （GA-PSO）.

文摘An improved wavelet neural network algorithm which combines with particle swarm optimization was proposed to avoid encountering the curse of dimensionality and overcome the shortage in the responding speed and learning ability brought about by the traditional models. Based on the operational data provided by a regional power grid in the south of China, the method was used in the actual short term load forecasting. The results show that the average time cost of the proposed method in the experiment process is reduced by 12.2 s, and the precision of the proposed method is increased by 3.43% compared to the traditional wavelet network. Consequently, the improved wavelet neural network forecasting model is better than the traditional wavelet neural network forecasting model in both forecasting effect and network function.

文摘Accurately forecasting peak particle velocity(PPV)during blasting operations plays a crucial role in mitigating vibration-related hazards and preventing economic losses.This research introduces an approach to PPV prediction by combining conventional empirical equations with physics-informed neural networks(PINN)and optimizing the model parameters via the Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO)algorithm.The proposed PSO-PINN framework was rigorously benchmarked against seven established machine learning approaches:Multilayer Perceptron(MLP),Extreme Gradient Boosting(XGBoost),Random Forest(RF),Support Vector Regression(SVR),Gradient Boosting Decision Tree(GBDT),Adaptive Boosting(Adaboost),and Gene Expression Programming(GEP).Comparative analysis showed that PSO-PINN outperformed these models,achieving RMSE reductions of 17.82-37.63%,MSE reductions of 32.47-61.10%,AR improvements of 2.97-21.19%,and R^(2)enhancements of 7.43-29.21%,demonstrating superior accuracy and generalization.Furthermore,the study determines the impact of incorporating empirical formulas as physical constraints in neural networks and examines the effects of different empirical equations,particle swarm size,iteration count in PSO,regularization coefficient,and learning rate in PINN on model performance.Lastly,a predictive system for blast vibration PPV is designed and implemented.The research outcomes offer theoretical references and practical recommendations for blast vibration forecasting in similar engineering applications.

文摘Based on the improved particle swarm optimization(PSO) algorithm,an optimization approach for the cargo oil tank design(COTD) is presented in this paper.The purpose is to design an optimal overall dimension of the cargo oil tank(COT) under various kinds of constraints in the preliminary design stage.A non-linear programming model is built to simulate the optimization design,in which the requirements and rules for COTD are used as the constraints.Considering the distance between the inner shell and hull,a fuzzy constraint is used to express the feasibility degree of the double-hull configuration.In terms of the characteristic of COTD,the PSO algorithm is improved to solve this problem.A bivariate extremum strategy is presented to deal with the fuzzy constraint,by which the maximum and minimum cargo capacities are obtained simultaneously.Finally,the simulation demonstrates the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed approach.
