The improvements involve Tent mapping based on random variables to initialize the population, a logarithmic decrease strategy for inertia weight to balance search capability, and the improved search operators in the territory foraging phase to enhance the ability to escape from local optima and increase convergence accuracy. The effectiveness of IMOAHA was verified through Matlab/Simulink. The results demonstrate that IMOAHA exhibits superior convergence, diversity, uniformity, and coverage of solutions across 6 test functions, outperforming 4 comparative algorithms. A Wilcoxon rank-sum test further confirmed its exceptional performance. To assess IMOAHA’s ability to solve engineering problems, an optimization model for a multi-track, multi-train urban rail traction power supply system with Supercapacitor Energy Storage Systems (SCESSs) was established, and IMOAHA was successfully applied to solving the capacity allocation problem of SCESSs, demonstrating that it is an effective tool for solving complex Multi-Objective Optimization Problems (MOOPs) in engineering domains.展开更多

In order to cope with high passenger flow service pressure, a mixed integer nonlinear programming(MINLP) model is proposed to optimize the line plan, timetable and rolling stock circulation simultaneously, to reduce the number of rolling stocks and increase the number of full-length services. A two-step algorithm strategy is proposed. In the first stage, the train timetable is optimized under the assumption that all the train services are the full-length services. In the second stage, the rolling stock plan is optimized based on the timetable optimized in the first stage. To ensure a feasible rolling stock circulation, certain full-length services are shortened to the short-length services due to the limited number of rolling stocks. Numerical experiments are performed based on the real-life data of Shanghai Metro Line 8. Results show that the proposed method can efficiently optimize the timetable and rolling stock circulation of the whole operation day. The optimized results are beneficial for both the service and the operational costs.展开更多

However, the SOS has performance advantages, in that the total trip time can be reduced depending on the number of skipped stations, crowds of passengers can be rapidly evacuated at congested stations in peak periods, and the cost to transit companies is reduced. There is a contradiction between reducing the trip time under the SOS and increasing the passengers＇ waiting times under an all-stop scheme. Given this situation, the three objectives of our study were to minimize the waiting and trip times of all passengers and the travel times of trains. A comprehensive estimation model is presented for the SOS. The mechanism through which the trip time for all passengers is affected by the SOS is analyzed in detail. A 0-I integer programming formulation is established for the three objectives, and is solved using a tabu search algorithm. Finally, an example is presented to demonstrate that the estimation method for the SOS is capable of optimizing the timetable and operation schemes for a Chinese urban rail transit network.展开更多

Based on the analysis of passen- ger＇s general travel expenses and operator＇s benefits, the constraints and objective functions are defined and the multiobjective optimization model for the train plan of urban rail transit is presented. Factors considered in the multi- objective optimization model include transport capacity, the requirements of traffic organization, corporation benefits, passenger demands, and passenger choice behavior under multi-train-routing mode. According to the characteristics of this model and practical planning experience, a three-phase solution was designed to gradually optimize the train formarion, train counts as well as operation periods. The instance of Changsha Metro Line 2 validates the feasibility and efficiency of this approach.展开更多

文摘A Ka-band wideband microstrip-to-microstrip(MS-to-MS)vialess vertical transition on slotline multimode resonator(MMR)is presented.The proposed transition mainly consists of a slotline MMR on the common ground plane,and two microstrip(MS)lines facing each other at the top and third layers in the four-layered liquid crystal polymer(LCP)substrate.In order to improve the bandwidth of the proposed transition,a U-shaped branch is added to the top-and third-layer MS lines,separately.The slotline MMR can be properly excited by setting the position of the U-shaped branch line.As such,a three-pole wideband vertical transition is obtained,which shows a good transmission performance over a wide frequency range of 29.27-39.95 GHz.The three-pole wideband vertical transition based on multilayer LCP substrate is designed,fabricated,and measured.Test results indicate that a wide frequency range of 26.8436.26 GHz can be obtained with return loss better than-10dB and insertion loss less than-3dB.
文摘During the electromagnetic railgun launch process,high temperature and high current conditions can lead to armature wear,affecting armature/rail contact and degrading launch performance.This paper starts with the analysis of the metal liquid film formation at the armature/rail contact interface.1D and 3D models are developed based on the characteristic relational equation obtained from the melt liquid film model.These models incorporate thermodynamic equilibrium phase diagram,transient heat and mass transfer model,copper-aluminum alloy reaction model,nonlinear electrical conductivity relational equation and nonlinear thermal conductivity relational equation to analyze the temperature distribution and copper-aluminum intermetallic compounds(Cu-Al IMCs)formation in the melt liquid film.The wear mechanism and influence law of armature are explained in detail from different perspectives to un-derstand and predict the transition and gouging phenomena at the contact interface.The model's validity is confirmed by the results of electromagnetic launch experiments,providing insights for future structure design and material selection of the armature and rail.

文摘The skip-stop operation strategy （SOS） is rarely applied to Chinese urban rail transit networks because it is a simple scheme and a less universally popular transportation service. However, the SOS has performance advantages, in that the total trip time can be reduced depending on the number of skipped stations, crowds of passengers can be rapidly evacuated at congested stations in peak periods, and the cost to transit companies is reduced. There is a contradiction between reducing the trip time under the SOS and increasing the passengers＇ waiting times under an all-stop scheme. Given this situation, the three objectives of our study were to minimize the waiting and trip times of all passengers and the travel times of trains. A comprehensive estimation model is presented for the SOS. The mechanism through which the trip time for all passengers is affected by the SOS is analyzed in detail. A 0-I integer programming formulation is established for the three objectives, and is solved using a tabu search algorithm. Finally, an example is presented to demonstrate that the estimation method for the SOS is capable of optimizing the timetable and operation schemes for a Chinese urban rail transit network.

文摘The train plan of urban rail transit under multi-routing mode can be divided into three parts： train formation, train operation periods and corresponding train counts of each routing in each period. Based on the analysis of passen- ger＇s general travel expenses and operator＇s benefits, the constraints and objective functions are defined and the multiobjective optimization model for the train plan of urban rail transit is presented. Factors considered in the multi- objective optimization model include transport capacity, the requirements of traffic organization, corporation benefits, passenger demands, and passenger choice behavior under multi-train-routing mode. According to the characteristics of this model and practical planning experience, a three-phase solution was designed to gradually optimize the train formarion, train counts as well as operation periods. The instance of Changsha Metro Line 2 validates the feasibility and efficiency of this approach.
