In motion optimization, the stiffness characteristics of the whole machining system, including machine tool and cutter, are not considered. The paper presents a new method to establish a general stiffness model of multi-axis machining system. An analytical stiffness model is established by Jacobi and point transformation matrix method. Based on the stiffness model, feed-direction stiffness index is calculated by the intersection of force ellipsoid and the cutting feed direction at the cutter tip. The stiffness index can help analyze the stiffness performance of the whole machining system in the available workspace. Based on the analysis of the stiffness performance, multi-axis motion optimization along tool paths is accomplished by mixed programming using Matlab and Visual C＋＋. The effectiveness of the motion optimization method is verified by the experimental research about the machining performance of a 7-axis 5-linkage machine tool. The proposed research showed that machining stability and production efficiency can be improved by multi-axis motion optimization based on the anisotropic force ellipsoid of the whole machining system.展开更多

This paper clarifies the interdependent relationships among these domains during the machine design process. It reviews key enabling strategies, including machine design based on advanced electromagnetic theory, innovative thermal management techniques, cutting-edge material advancements, and state-of-the-art manufacturing technologies, that collectively enhance the performance and feasibility of high power density machines(HPDMs).

文摘Fabric dyeing is a critical production process in the clothing industry and heavily relies on batch processing machines(BPM).In this study,the parallel BPM scheduling problem with machine eligibility in fabric dyeing is considered,and an adaptive cooperated shuffled frog-leaping algorithm(ACSFLA)is proposed to minimize makespan and total tardiness simultaneously.ACSFLA determines the search times for each memeplex based on its quality,with more searches in high-quality memeplexes.An adaptive cooperated and diversified search mechanism is applied,dynamically adjusting search strategies for each memeplex based on their dominance relationships and quality.During the cooperated search,ACSFLA uses a segmented and dynamic targeted search approach,while in non-cooperated scenarios,the search focuses on local search around superior solutions to improve efficiency.Furthermore,ACSFLA employs adaptive population division and partial population shuffling strategies.Through these strategies,memeplexes with low evolutionary potential are selected for reconstruction in the next generation,while thosewithhighevolutionarypotential are retained to continue their evolution.Toevaluate the performance of ACSFLA,comparative experiments were conducted using ACSFLA,SFLA,ASFLA,MOABC,and NSGA-CC in 90 instances.The computational results reveal that ACSFLA outperforms the other algorithms in 78 of the 90 test cases,highlighting its advantages in solving the parallel BPM scheduling problem with machine eligibility.

文摘Accurate and robust detection of wax appearance(a medium-to high-molecular-weight component of crude oil)is crucial for the efficient operation of hydrocarbon transportation.The wax appearance temperature(WAT)is the lowest temperature at which the wax begins to form.When crude oil cools to its WAT,wax crystals precipitate,forming deposits on pipelines as the solubility limit is reached.Therefore,WAT is a crucial quality assurance parameter,especially when dealing with modern fuel oil blends.In this study,we use machine learning via MATLAB’s Bioinformatics Toolbox to predict the WAT of marine fuel samples by correlating near-infrared spectral data with laboratory-measured values.The dataset provided by Intertek PLC-a total quality assurance provider of inspection,testing,and certification services-includes industrial data that is imbalanced,with a higher proportion of high-WAT samples compared to low-WAT samples.The objective is to predict marine fuel oil blends with unusually high WAT values(>35℃)without relying on time-consuming and irregular laboratory-based measurements.The results demonstrate that the developed model,based on the one-class support vector machine(OCSVM)algorithm,achieved a Recall of 96,accurately predicting 96%of fuel samples with WAT>35℃.For standard binary classification,the Recall was 85.7.The trained OCSVM model is expected to facilitate rapid and well-informed decision-making for logistics and storage when choosing fuel oils.

文摘As a complicated optimization problem,parallel batch processing machines scheduling problem(PBPMSP)exists in many real-life manufacturing industries such as textiles and semiconductors.Machine eligibility means that at least one machine is not eligible for at least one job.PBPMSP and scheduling problems with machine eligibility are frequently considered;however,PBPMSP with machine eligibility is seldom explored.This study investigates PBPMSP with machine eligibility in fabric dyeing and presents a novel shuffled frog-leaping algorithm with competition(CSFLA)to minimize makespan.In CSFLA,the initial population is produced in a heuristic and random way,and the competitive search of memeplexes comprises two phases.Competition between any two memeplexes is done in the first phase,then iteration times are adjusted based on competition,and search strategies are adjusted adaptively based on the evolution quality of memeplexes in the second phase.An adaptive population shuffling is given.Computational experiments are conducted on 100 instances.The computational results showed that the new strategies of CSFLA are effective and that CSFLA has promising advantages in solving the considered PBPMSP.
文摘A theoretical analysis regarding active vibration control of rotating machines with current-controlled electrodynamic actuators between machine feet and steel frame foundation and with velocity feedback of the machine feet vibrations is presented.First,a generalized mathematical formulation is derived based on a state-space description which can be used for different kinds of models(1D,2D,and 3D models).It is shown that under special boundary conditions,the control parameters can be directly implemented into the stiffness and damping matrices of the system.Based on the generalized mathematical formulation,an example of a rotating machine—described by a 2D model—with journal bearings,flexible rotor,current-controlled electrodynamic actuators,steel frame foundation,and velocity feedback of the machine feet vibrations is presented where the effectiveness of the described active vibration control system is demonstrated.

文摘The accurate selection of operational parameters is critical for ensuring the safety,efficiency,and automation of Tunnel Boring Machine(TBM)operations.This study proposes a similarity-based framework integrating model-based boring indexes(derived from rock fragmentation mechanisms)and Euclidean distance analysis to achieve real-time recommendations of TBM operational parameters.Key performance indicators-thrust(F),torque(T),and penetration(p)-were used to calculate three model-based boring indexes(a,b,k),which quantify dynamic rock fragmentation behavior.A dataset of 359 candidate samples,reflecting diverse geological conditions from the Yin-Chao water conveyance project in Inner Mongolia,China,was utilized to validate the framework.The system dynamically recommends parameters by matching real-time data with historical cases through standardized Euclidean distance,achieving high accuracy.Specifically,the mean absolute error(MAE)for rotation speed(n)was 0.10 r/min,corresponding to a mean absolute percentage error(MAPE)of 1.09%.For advance rate(v),the MAE was 3.4 mm/min,with a MAPE of 4.50%.The predicted thrust(F)and torque(T)values exhibited strong agreement with field measurements,with MAEs of 270 kN and 178 kN∙m,respectively.Field applications demonstrated a 30%reduction in parameter adjustment time compared to empirical methods.This work provides a robust solution for real-time TBM control,advancing intelligent tunneling in complex geological environments.

文摘The switch machine is a vital component in the railway system,playing a significant role in ensuring the safe operation of trains.To address the shortcomings of existing fault diagnosis methods for the switch machine and leveraging the strong anti-interference and high sensitivity characteristics of vibration signals,we proposed a VMD-SDP-CNN(Variational mode decomposition-Symmetric dot pattern-Convolutional neural network)fault diagnosis method based on switch machine vibration signals.Firstly,the vibration signal of the switch machine was decomposed by VMD to obtain several intrinsic mode function(IMF)components.Secondly,the SDP method was employed to transform the decomposed IMF components into two-dimensional images,and the issue of one-dimensional signal recognition was transformed into the issue of two-dimensional image recognition.Finally,a CNN was used to realize the fault diagnosis of the switch machine.The experimental results showed that the recognition accuracy of the five actual working conditions of the switch machine using this method was superior to that of typical deep learning and machine learning methods,verifying its practicability and effectiveness.

文摘Cyclohexene is an important raw material in the production of nylon.Selective hydrogenation of benzene is a key method for preparing cyclohexene.However,the Ru catalysts used in current industrial processes still face challenges,including high metal usage,high process costs,and low cyclohexene yield.This study utilizes existing literature data combined with machine learning methods to analyze the factors influencing benzene conversion,cyclohexene selectivity,and yield in the benzene hydrogenation to cyclohexene reaction.It constructs predictive models based on XGBoost and Random Forest algorithms.After analysis,it was found that reaction time,Ru content,and space velocity are key factors influencing cyclohexene yield,selectivity,and benzene conversion.Shapley Additive Explanations(SHAP)analysis and feature importance analysis further revealed the contribution of each variable to the reaction outcomes.Additionally,we randomly generated one million variable combinations using the Dirichlet distribution to attempt to predict high-yield catalyst formulations.This paper provides new insights into the application of machine learning in heterogeneous catalysis and offers some reference for further research.

文摘The uplift resistance of the soil overlying shield tunnels significantly impacts their anti-floating stability.However,research on uplift resistance concerning special-shaped shield tunnels is limited.This study combines numerical simulation with machine learning techniques to explore this issue.It presents a summary of special-shaped tunnel geometries and introduces a shape coefficient.Through the finite element software,Plaxis3D,the study simulates six key parameters—shape coefficient,burial depth ratio,tunnel’s longest horizontal length,internal friction angle,cohesion,and soil submerged bulk density—that impact uplift resistance across different conditions.Employing XGBoost and ANN methods,the feature importance of each parameter was analyzed based on the numerical simulation results.The findings demonstrate that a tunnel shape more closely resembling a circle leads to reduced uplift resistance in the overlying soil,whereas other parameters exhibit the contrary effects.Furthermore,the study reveals a diminishing trend in the feature importance of buried depth ratio,internal friction angle,tunnel longest horizontal length,cohesion,soil submerged bulk density,and shape coefficient in influencing uplift resistance.

文摘With the continued advancement of deep electrification across various industries, the demand for higher power density in electric machines is steadily increasing. However, realizing high power density remains a significant technical challenge and has become a major bottleneck in machine development. The design of such machines is inherently constrained by the strong coupling among electromagnetic(EM), thermal, and mechanical domains, while systematic analyses of these challenges remain insufficient. This paper clarifies the interdependent relationships among these domains during the machine design process. It reviews key enabling strategies, including machine design based on advanced electromagnetic theory, innovative thermal management techniques, cutting-edge material advancements, and state-of-the-art manufacturing technologies, that collectively enhance the performance and feasibility of high power density machines(HPDMs). The insights provided aim to support the development of nextgeneration machine systems with higher power density, compact size, and robust, sustainable performance across a wide range of industrial and technological applications.

文摘The advantages of genome selection(GS) in animal and plant breeding are self-evident.Traditional parametric models have disadvantage in better fit the increasingly large sequencing data and capture complex effects accurately.Machine learning models have demonstrated remarkable potential in addressing these challenges.In this study,we introduced the concept of mixed kernel functions to explore the performance of support vector machine regression(SVR) in GS.Six single kernel functions(SVR_L,SVR_C,SVR_G,SVR_P,SVR_S,SVR_L) and four mixed kernel functions(SVR_GS,SVR_GP,SVR_LS,SVR_LP) were used to predict genome breeding values.The prediction accuracy,mean squared error(MSE) and mean absolute error(MAE) were used as evaluation indicators to compare with two traditional parametric models(GBLUP,BayesB) and two popular machine learning models(RF,KcRR).The results indicate that in most cases,the performance of the mixed kernel function model significantly outperforms that of GBLUP,BayesB and single kernel function.For instance,for T1 in the pig dataset,the predictive accuracy of SVR_GS is improved by 10% compared to GBLUP,and by approximately 4.4 and 18.6% compared to SVR_G and SVR_S respectively.For E1 in the wheat dataset,SVR_GS achieves 13.3% higher prediction accuracy than GBLUP.Among single kernel functions,the Laplacian and Gaussian kernel functions yield similar results,with the Gaussian kernel function performing better.The mixed kernel function notably reduces the MSE and MAE when compared to all single kernel functions.Furthermore,regarding runtime,SVR_GS and SVR_GP mixed kernel functions run approximately three times faster than GBLUP in the pig dataset,with only a slight increase in runtime compared to the single kernel function model.In summary,the mixed kernel function model of SVR demonstrates speed and accuracy competitiveness,and the model such as SVR_GS has important application potential for GS.

文摘Accurate assessment of snowpack volumetric liquid water content and bulk density is essential for understanding snow hydrology,avalanche risk management,and monitoring cryosphere changes.This study presents a novel dual-parameter inversion framework that integrates synthetic electromagnetic modelling,dimensionality reduction,and machine learning algorithms to extract relative permittivity and log-resistivity from ground-penetrating radar(GPR)data.Traditional snowpack measurements are invasive,labor-intensive,and limited to point observations.To overcome these limitations,we developed a non-invasive,scalable,and data-driven framework that uses synthetic GPR datasets representing diverse snowpack conditions with variable moisture and density profiles.Synthetic 1D time series reflections(A-scans)are generated using finite-difference time-domain simulations in the state-of-the-art electromagnetic simulator gprMax.Principal component analysis(PCA)is applied to compress each A-scan while preserving key features,which significantly improved and enhanced the model training efficiency.Four machine learning models,including random forest,neural network,support vector machine,and eXtreme gradient boosting,are trained on PCA-reduced features.Among these,the neural network model achieved the best performance,with R^(2)>0.97 for permittivity and R 2>0.92 for resistivity.Gaussian noise(signal-to-noise ratio of 6 dB)is introduced to the synthetic data,and then targeted domain adaptation is employed to enhance generalization to field data.The framework is validated on two contrasting GPR transects in the Altay Mountains of the Chinese mainland,representing moist(T750)and wet(G125)snowpack conditions.The neural network model predictions are most consistent with the GPR derived estimates,Snowfork measurements,and snow pit data,achieving volumetric liquid water content deviation of≤1.5% and bulk density error within the range of 30-84 kg m^(-3).The results demonstrate that machine learning-based inversion,supported by realistic simulations and data augmentation enables scalable,non-invasive snowpack characterization with significant applications in hydrological forecasting,snow monitoring,and water resource management.

文摘In the pharmaceutical field,machine learning can play an important role in drug development,production and treatment.Co-crystallization techniques have shown promising potential to enhance the properties of active pharmaceutical ingredients(APIs)such as solubility,permeability,and bioavailability,all without altering their chemical structure.This approach opens new avenues for developing natural products into effective drugs,especially those previously challenging in formulation.Emodin,an anthraquinone-based natural product,is a notable example due to its diverse biological activities;however,its physicochemical limitations,such as poor solubility and easy sublimation,restricted its clinical application.While various methods have improved emodin's physicochemical properties,research on its bioavailability remains limited.In our study,we summarize cocrystals and salts produced through co-crystallization technology and identify piperazine as a favorable coformer.Conflicting conclusions from computational chemistry and molecular modeling method and machine learning method regarding the formation of an emodin-piperazine cocrystal or salt led us to experimentally validate these possibilities.Ultimately,we successfully obtained the emodin-piperazine cocrystal,which were characterized and evaluated by several in vitro methods and pharmacokinetic studies.In addition,experiments have shown that emodin has a certain therapeutic effect on sepsis,so we also evaluated emodin-piperazine biological activity in a sepsis model.The results demonstrate that co-crystallization significantly enhances emodin's solubility,permeability,and bioavailability.Pharmacodynamic studies indicate that the emodin-piperazine cocrystal improves sepsis symptoms and provides protective effects against liver and kidney damage associated with sepsis.This study offers renewed hope for natural products with broad biological activities yet hindered by physicochemical limitations by advancing co-crystallization as a viable development approach.

文摘Nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC)is a malignant tumor prevalent in southern China and Southeast Asia,where its early detection is crucial for improving patient prognosis and reducing mortality rates.However,existing screening methods suffer from limitations in accuracy and accessibility,hindering their application in large-scale population screening.In this work,a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy(SERS)-based method was established to explore the profiles of different stratified components in saliva from NPC and healthy subjects after fractionation processing.The study findings indicate that all fractionated samples exhibit diseaseassociated molecular signaling differences,where small-molecule(molecular weight cut-offvalue is 10 kDa)demonstrating superior classification capabilities with sensitivity of 90.5%and speci-ficity of 75.6%,area under receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve of 0:925±0:031.The primary objective of this study was to qualitatively explore patterns in saliva composition across groups.The proposed SERS detection strategy for fractionated saliva offers novel insights for enhancing the sensitivity and reliability of noninvasive NPC screening,laying the foundation for translational application in large-scale clinical settings.
