A multi-agent cooperative coalition framework is developed to optimize the formation scheduling problem in a decentralized manner. The social class differentiation mech- anism and role-assuming mechanism are incorporated into the framework, which, in turn, ensures that the multi-agent system （MAS） evolves in the optimal direction. Moreover, a further differen- tiation pressure can be achieved to help MAS escape from local optima. A Bayesian coalition nego- tiation algorithm is constructed, within which the Harsanyi transformation is introduced to transform the coalition problem based on incomplete information to the Bayesian-equivalent coali- tion problem based on imperfect information. The simulation results suggest that the distribution of agents＇ expectations of other agents＇ unknown information approximates to the true distribution after a finite set of generations. The comparisons indicate that the MAS cooperative coalition algo- rithm produces a significantly better utility and possesses a more effective capability of escaping from local optima than the proposal-engaged marriage algorithm and the Simulated Annealing algorithm.展开更多

The newly designed cell assembly can be compressed by deformation-DIA apparatuses with the MA 6-6 system, which consists of six second-stage tungsten carbide anvils （with a truncated edge length of 5 mm） and the anvil guide. Deformation of samples was barely observed during the compression process, showing that the shear strain of the deformed samples can be measured by the rotation of a strain marker. Simple shear deformation experiments on anhydrous and hydrous oli- vine aggregates were conducted under upper mantle conditions （pressures of 5.2-7.6 GPa and temperatures of 1 473-1 573 K）, and sample deformation with a shear strain of 7=0.8-1.2 was successfully achieved at a shear strain rate of 4.0×10^-5-7.5×10^-5 s^-1. The present study extended the pressure range of simple shear deformation experiments in the deformation-DIA apparatus from 3 GPa in an early study to 7.6 GPa at high temperatures.展开更多
