MSS concept was proposed for giving success criterion of a mission and judging the success by conventional mission effectiveness with regards to the aircraft capabilities. This space is created by the Mission Success Function(MSF) and the original Effectiveness Index Space(EIS) where empirical equations are usually assumed to be MSFs. Based on this MSS concept, this paper firstly defines the MSS-based evaluation, then further summarizes the evaluation process of the Contribution to System-of-Systems(CSS). More importantly, based on the thought of Inverse Design(ID), a new design method of MSF is presented comprehensively analyzing aircraft's CSS in a combat mission without using any empirical MSF. The definition of MSS based ID is given and the design procedure is sequentially introduced. Two different confrontation cases are depicted with many details as the simulation validation: Air-to-ground and Penetration. There are two design variables considered for designing MSS in the latter case while only one for the former. However, in both cases, the best design is given by evaluating the Gaussian fitting performance of CSS.展开更多

文摘To capture the nonlinear dynamics and gain evolution in chirped pulse amplification(CPA)systems,the split-step Fourier method and the fourth-order Runge–Kutta method are integrated to iteratively address the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation and the rate equations.However,this approach is burdened by substantial computational demands,resulting in significant time expenditures.In the context of intelligent laser optimization and inverse design,the necessity for numerous simulations further exacerbates this issue,highlighting the need for fast and accurate simulation methodologies.Here,we introduce an end-to-end model augmented with active learning(E2E-AL)with decent generalization through different dedicated embedding methods over various parameters.On an identical computational platform,the artificial intelligence–driven model is 2000 times faster than the conventional simulation method.Benefiting from the active learning strategy,the E2E-AL model achieves decent precision with only two-thirds of the training samples compared with the case without such a strategy.Furthermore,we demonstrate a multi-objective inverse design of the CPA systems enabled by the E2E-AL model.The E2E-AL framework manifests the potential of becoming a standard approach for the rapid and accurate modeling of ultrafast lasers and is readily extended to simulate other complex systems.

文摘Polymer flooding is a widely used technique in enhanced oil recovery (EOR),but its effectiveness is often hindered by the poor viscosity retention of conventional polymers like hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM) under high-salinity conditions.Although recent advances in molecular engineering have concentrated on modifying polymer architecture and functional groups to address this issue,the complex interplay among polymer topology,charge distribution and hydrophilic-hydrophobic balance renders rational molecular design challenging.In this work,we present an AI-driven inverse design framework that directly maps target viscosity performance back to optimal molecular structures.Guided by practical molecular design strategies,the topological features (grafting density,side-chain length) and functional group-related features(copolymerization ratio,hydrophilic-hydrophobic balance) are encoded into a multidimensional design space.By integrating dissipative particle dynamics simulations with particle swarm algorithm,the framework efficiently explores the design space and identifies non-intuitive,high-performing polymer structure.The optimized polymer achieves a 12%enhancement in viscosity,attributed to the synergistic effect of electrostatic chain extension and hydrophobic aggregation.This study demonstrates the promise of AI-guided inverse design for developing next-generation EOR polymers and provides a generalizable approach for the discovery of functional soft materials.

文摘The integrated waveguide polarizer is essential for photonic integrated circuits,and various designs of waveguide polarizers have been developed.As the demand for dense photonic integration increases rapidly,new strategies to minimize the device size are needed.In this paper,we have inversely designed an integrated transverse electric pass(TE-pass)polarizer with a footprint of 2.88μm×2.88μm,which is the smallest footprint ever achieved.A direct binary search algorithm is used to inversely design the device for maximizing the transverse electric(TE)transmission while minimizing transverse magnetic(TM)transmission.Finally,the inverse-designed device provides an average insertion loss of 0.99 dB and an average extinction ratio of 33 dB over a wavelength range of 100 nm.

文摘A power splitter with a wideband arbitrary splitting ratio,which provides flexibility and adaptability in forming photonic devices such as microring resonators and Mach–Zehnder interferometers,proves to be essential in photonic integrated circuits(PICs).We designed and fabricated a directional coupler-based power splitter with a wideband arbitrary splitting ratio and a microring resonator with a wideband uniform extinction ratio(ER)based on artificial gauge field(AGF)optimization.The neural network-aided inverse design method is applied to complete the target.Less than 0.9 dB power splitting variation and 1.6 dB ER variation have been achieved experimentally over a 100-nm bandwidth.Wideband performance,design efficiency,and device compactness are obtained by utilizing this optimization,which indicates great potential and universality in PIC applications.

文摘Inverse design has long been an efficient and powerful design tool in the aircraft industry.In this paper,a novel inverse design method for supercritical airfoils is proposed based on generative models in deep learning.A Conditional Variational Auto Encoder(CVAE)and an integrated generative network CVAE-GAN that combines the CVAE with the Wasserstein Generative Adversarial Networks(WGAN),are conducted as generative models.They are used to generate target wall Mach distributions for the inverse design that matches specified features,such as locations of suction peak,shock and aft loading.Qualitative and quantitative results show that both adopted generative models can generate diverse and realistic wall Mach number distributions satisfying the given features.The CVAE-GAN model outperforms the CVAE model and achieves better reconstruction accuracies for all the samples in the dataset.Furthermore,a deep neural network for nonlinear mapping is adopted to obtain the airfoil shape corresponding to the target wall Mach number distribution.The performances of the designed deep neural network are fully demonstrated and a smoothness measurement is proposed to quantify small oscillations in the airfoil surface,proving the authenticity and accuracy of the generated airfoil shapes.

文摘The basic indexes of all-optical integrated photonic circuits include high-density integration,ultrafast response and ultralow energy consumption.Traditional methods mainly adopt conventional micro/nano-structures.The overall size of the circuit is large,usually reaches hundreds of microns.Besides,it is difficult to balance the ultrafast response and ultra-low energy consumption problem,and the crosstalk between two traditional devices is difficult to overcome.Here,we propose and experimentally demonstrate an approach based on inverse design method to realize a high-density,ultrafast and ultra-low energy consumption integrated photonic circuit with two all-optical switches controlling the input states of an all-optical XOR logic gate.The feature size of the whole circuit is only 2.5μm×7μm,and that of a single device is 2μm×2μm.The distance between two adjacent devices is as small as 1.5μm,within wavelength magnitude scale.Theoretical response time of the circuit is 150 fs,and the threshold energy is within 10 fJ/bit.We have also considered the crosstalk problem.The circuit also realizes a function of identifying two-digit logic signal results.Our work provides a new idea for the design of ultrafast,ultra-low energy consumption all-optical devices and the implementation of high-density photonic integrated circuits.
文摘This paper presents a novel design method of the Mission Success Space(MSS) for the evaluation on aircraft contribution effectiveness. MSS concept was proposed for giving success criterion of a mission and judging the success by conventional mission effectiveness with regards to the aircraft capabilities. This space is created by the Mission Success Function(MSF) and the original Effectiveness Index Space(EIS) where empirical equations are usually assumed to be MSFs. Based on this MSS concept, this paper firstly defines the MSS-based evaluation, then further summarizes the evaluation process of the Contribution to System-of-Systems(CSS). More importantly, based on the thought of Inverse Design(ID), a new design method of MSF is presented comprehensively analyzing aircraft's CSS in a combat mission without using any empirical MSF. The definition of MSS based ID is given and the design procedure is sequentially introduced. Two different confrontation cases are depicted with many details as the simulation validation: Air-to-ground and Penetration. There are two design variables considered for designing MSS in the latter case while only one for the former. However, in both cases, the best design is given by evaluating the Gaussian fitting performance of CSS.
文摘This paper presents a practical and efficient design method for aircraft Mission Success Space(MSS)based on the entropy measurement(EM).First,fundamentals regarding MSS,Inverse Design(ID)and entropy are discussed.Then,two EM schemes of entropy-based ID and the whole MSS ID procedure are given to demonstrate alternative ways of entropy quantification and MSS design.After that,Genetic Algorithm(GA)is utilized as a search algorithm to find the optimal MSS design with the minimum objective,entropy,in each EM scheme.A simulation case of aircraft penetration mission is given for the method validation where the best aircraft MSS design is obtained by GA according to the minimum entropy.Results from two schemes are compared at the end.
文摘Current design method for circular sliding slopes is not so reasonable that it often results in slope (sliding.) As a result, artificial neural network (ANN) is used to establish an artificial neural network based inverse design method for circular sliding slopes. A sample set containing 21 successful circular sliding slopes excavated in the past is used to train the network. A test sample of 3 successful circular sliding slopes excavated in the past is used to test the trained network. The test results show that the ANN based inverse design method is valid and can be applied to the design of circular sliding slopes.
