CFNA iswidely used in mechanical dynamics for periodic solution of second-order original differentialequations (SODE) with periodic time-variant coefficients. The principle of the algorithm is todiscretize the motion period into many short time intervals, so the coefficient matrices of theequation set are regarded as constant in a time interval. Defects are found in the originalalgorithm in treating the modal coordinates at the two end-nodes and important modifications to thedefects is made for the algorithm. The modified algorithm is finally used to solve the dynamicproblem of a three-ring planetary gear transmission.展开更多

Due to its memory ability and simple structure, BSA has powerful capability to find global optimal solutions. However, the algorithm is still insufficient in balancing the exploration and the exploitation. Therefore, an improved adaptive backtracking search optimization algorithm combined with modified Hooke-Jeeves pattern search is proposed for numerical global optimization. It has two main parts： the BSA is used for the exploration phase and the modified pattern search method completes the exploitation phase. In particular, a simple but effective strategy of adapting one of BSA＇s important control parameters is introduced. The proposed algorithm is compared with standard BSA, three state-of-the-art evolutionary algorithms and three superior algorithms in IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation 2014（IEEE CEC2014） over six widely-used benchmarks and 22 real-parameter single objective numerical optimization benchmarks in IEEE CEC2014. The results of experiment and statistical analysis demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed algorithm.展开更多

Combining the vortex search algorithm and the artificial bee colony algorithm（ABC） which has good performance in exploration, we present a HVS（hybrid vortex search） algorithm to solve the numerical optimization problems. We first use the employed bees and onlooker bees of ABC algorithm to find a solution, and then adopt the VS algorithm to find the best solution. In the meantime, we cannot treat the best solution so far as the center of the algorithm all the time. The algorithm is tested by 50 benchmark functions. The numerical results show the HVS algorithm has superior performance over the ABC and the VS algorithms.展开更多

However, the universality and robustness of these algorithms are still unsatisfactory. This paper proposes an enhanced self-adaptiveevolutionary algorithm （ESEA） to overcome the demerits above. In the ESEA, four evolutionary operators are designed to enhance the evolutionary structure. Besides, the ESEA employs four effective search strategies under the framework of the self-adaptive learning. Four groups of the experiments are done to find out the most suitable parameter values for the ESEA. In order to verify the performance of the proposed algorithm, 26 state-of-the-art test functions are solved by the ESEA and its competitors. The experimental results demonstrate that the universality and robustness of the ESEA out-perform its competitors.展开更多

These equations are types of integro-differential equation of the second kind and were originally obtained from an aeroelasticity problem. One of the main contributions of this study is to propose numerical algorithms that do not involve transforming the original equation into the corresponding Volterra equation, but still enable the numerical solution of the original equation to be determined. The feasibility of the proposed numerical algorithm is demonstrated by applying examples in measuring the maximum errors with exact solutions at every computed nodes and calculating the corresponding numerical rates of convergence thereafter.展开更多

As certain subsistent numerical schemes may fail due to producing negative values for financial variables which require non-negativity preserving. These algorithms which we are analyzing preserve not only the non-negativity, but also the character of boundaries (natural, reflecting, absorbing, etc.). The derivatives of the CIR process and the Heston model are being extensively studied. Beyond plain vanilla European options, we creatively apply our splitting-step methods to a path-dependent option valuation. We compare our algorithms to a class of numerical schemes based on Euler discretization which are prevalent currently. The comparisons are given with respect to both accuracy and computational time for the European call option under the CIR model whereas with respect to convergence rate for the path-dependent option under the CIR model and the European call option under the Heston model.展开更多

This paper introduces a systematic and unified formal development method of algebraic and numerical algorithms. The method implements the complete refinement process from abstract specifications to a concrete executable program. It uses the core idea of partition and recursion for formal derivation and combines the mathematical induction based on strict mathematical logic with Hoare axiom for correctness verification. This development method converts creative work into non-creative work as much as possible while ensuring the correctness of the algorithm, which can not only verify the correctness of the existing algebraic and numerical algorithms but also guide the development of efficient unknown algorithms for such problems. This paper takes the non-recursive implementation of the Extended Euclidean Algorithm and Horner's method as examples. Therefore, the effectiveness and feasibility of this method are further verified.展开更多

In the present study we consider its solution in the regime of solitary waves, or solitons that is first used to convert the PDE into an ODE. It is then shown that using the sniffer technique assisted GA procedure, numerical solution has successfully been generated quite efficiently for the one-dimensional ODE version of the KdV equation in space variable (x). The technique is quite promising for its applications to systems involving ODE equations where analytical solutions are not directly available.展开更多

In this paper, we use a special numerical algorithm based on wavelets to study the L p continuity of non infinite smooth operators OpS m 0 , 0 ; in fact, we apply first special wavelets to symbol to get special basic operators, then we regroup all the special basic operators at given scale and prove that such scale operator’s continuity decreases very fast, we sum such scale operators and a symbol operator can be approached by very good compact operators. By correlation of basic operators, we get very exact pseudo-orthogonality and also L 2 → L 2 continuity for scale operators. By considering the influence region of scale operator, we get H 1 （= F 0 , 2 1 ） → L 1 continuity and L ∞→ BMO continuity. By interpolation theorem, we get also L p （= F 0 , 2 p ） → L p continuity for 1 〈 p 〈 ∞ . Our results are sharp for F 0 , 2 p → L p continuity when 1 ≤ p ≤ 2, that is to say, we find out the exact order of derivations for which the symbols can ensure the resulting operators to be bounded on these spaces.展开更多

Firstly,the numerical formulations of the 3-D ADI-FDTD method are modified with the artificial anisotropy,and the new numerical dispersion relation is derived. Secondly,the relative permittivity tensor of the artificial anisotropy can be obtained by the Adaptive Genetic Algorithm (AGA). In order to demon-strate the accuracy and efficiency of this new method,a monopole antenna is simulated as an exam-ple. And the numerical results and the computational requirements of the proposed method are com-pared with those of the conventional ADI-FDTD method and the measured data. In addition the re-duction of the numerical dispersion is investigated as the objective function of the AGA. It is found that this new method is accurate and efficient by choosing proper objective function.展开更多

文摘A new method to reduce the numerical dispersion of the three-dimensional Alternating Di-rection Implicit Finite-Difference Time-Domain (3-D ADI-FDTD) method is proposed. Firstly,the numerical formulations of the 3-D ADI-FDTD method are modified with the artificial anisotropy,and the new numerical dispersion relation is derived. Secondly,the relative permittivity tensor of the artificial anisotropy can be obtained by the Adaptive Genetic Algorithm (AGA). In order to demon-strate the accuracy and efficiency of this new method,a monopole antenna is simulated as an exam-ple. And the numerical results and the computational requirements of the proposed method are com-pared with those of the conventional ADI-FDTD method and the measured data. In addition the re-duction of the numerical dispersion is investigated as the objective function of the AGA. It is found that this new method is accurate and efficient by choosing proper objective function.

文摘Statistical distributions are used to model wind speed,and the twoparameters Weibull distribution has proven its effectiveness at characterizing wind speed.Accurate estimation of Weibull parameters,the scale(c)and shape(k),is crucial in describing the actual wind speed data and evaluating the wind energy potential.Therefore,this study compares the most common conventional numerical(CN)estimation methods and the recent intelligent optimization algorithms(IOA)to show how precise estimation of c and k affects the wind energy resource assessments.In addition,this study conducts technical and economic feasibility studies for five sites in the northern part of Saudi Arabia,namely Aljouf,Rafha,Tabuk,Turaif,and Yanbo.Results exhibit that IOAs have better performance in attaining optimal Weibull parameters and provided an adequate description of the observed wind speed data.Also,with six wind turbine technologies rating between 1 and 3MW,the technical and economic assessment results reveal that the CN methods tend to overestimate the energy output and underestimate the cost of energy($/kWh)compared to the assessments by IOAs.The energy cost analyses show that Turaif is the windiest site,with an electricity cost of$0.016906/kWh.The highest wind energy output is obtained with the wind turbine having a rated power of 2.5 MW at all considered sites with electricity costs not exceeding$0.02739/kWh.Finally,the outcomes of this study exhibit the potential of wind energy in Saudi Arabia,and its environmental goals can be acquired by harvesting wind energy.
文摘A mathematical model of resin flow and temperature variation in the filling stage of the resin transfer molding (RTM) is developed based on the control volume/finite element method (CV/FEM). The effects of the heat transfer and chemical reaction of the resin on the flow and temperature are considered. The numerical algorithm of the resin flow and temperature variation in the process of RTM are studied. Its accuracy and convergence are analyzed. The comparison of temperature variations between experimental results and model predictions is carried out for two RTM cases. Result shows that the model is efficient for evaluating the flow and temperature variation in the filling stage of RTM and there is a good coincidence between theory and experiment.
文摘Gas-solid two-phase turbulent flows,mass transfer,heat transfer and catalytic cracking reactions areknown to exert interrelated influences in commercial fluid catalytic cracking(FCC)riser reactors.In the presentpaper,a three-dimensional turbulent gas-solid two-phase flow-reaction model for FCC riser reactors was devel-oped.The model took into account the gas-solid two-phase turbulent flows,inter-phase heat transfer,masstransfer,catalytic cracking reactions and their interrelated influence.The k-V-k_P two-phase turbulence modelwas employed and modified for the two-phase turbulent flow patterns with relatively high particle concentration.Boundary conditions for the flow-reaction model were given.Related numerical algorithm was formed and a nu-merical code was drawn up.Numerical modeling for commercial FCC riser reactors could be carried out with thepresented model.
