The newly proposed rock mass parameterback-analysis method is validated in a mechanized twin tunnel project, and its accuracy and effectivenessare demonstrated. Compared with traditional single-stage back-analysis methods, the proposedmodel decreases the average absolute percentage error from 12.73% to 4.34%, significantly improving theaccuracy of the back-analysis. Moreover, although the accuracy of back analysis significantly increaseswith the number of construction stages considered, the back analysis time is acceptable.

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.

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

To overcome this shortcoming, robust design is proposed to find out the optimal profile of an airfoil to maintain its performance in an uncertain environment. The robust airfoil optimization is aimed to minimize mean values and variances of drag coefficients while satisfying the lift and thickness constraints over a range of Mach numbers. A multi-objective estimation of distribution algorithm is applied to the robust airfoil optimization on the base of the RAE2822 benchmark airfoil. The shape of the airfoil is obtained through superposing ten Hick-Henne shape functions upon the benchmark airfoil. A set of design points is selected according to a uniform design table for aerodynamic evaluation. A Kriging model of drag coefficient is constructed with those points to reduce computing costs. Over the Mach range from 0.7 to 0.8, the airfoil generated by the robust optimization has a configuration characterized by supercritical airfoil with low drag coefficients. The small fluctuation in its drag coefficients means that the performance of the robust airfoil is insensitive to variation of Mach number.展开更多

文摘In tunnel construction,tunnel boring machine(TBM)tunnelling typically relies on manual experience with sub-optimal control parameters,which can easily lead to inefficiency and high costs.This study proposed an intelligent decision-making method for TBM tunnelling control parameters based on multiobjective optimization(MOO).First,the effective TBM operation dataset is obtained through data preprocessing of the Songhua River(YS)tunnel project in China.Next,the proposed method begins with developing machine learning models for predicting TBM tunnelling performance parameters(i.e.total thrust and cutterhead torque),rock mass classification,and hazard risks(i.e.tunnel collapse and shield jamming).Then,considering three optimal objectives,(i.e.,penetration rate,rock-breaking energy consumption,and cutterhead hob wear),the MOO framework and corresponding mathematical expression are established.The Pareto optimal front is solved using DE-NSGA-II algorithm.Finally,the optimal control parameters(i.e.,advance rate and cutterhead rotation speed)are obtained by the satisfactory solution determination criterion,which can balance construction safety and efficiency with satisfaction.Furthermore,the proposed method is validated through 50 cases of TBM tunnelling,showing promising potential of application.

文摘To address issues such as poor initial population diversity, low stability and local convergence accuracy, and easy local optima in the traditional Multi-Objective Artificial Hummingbird Algorithm (MOAHA), an Improved MOAHA (IMOAHA) was proposed. 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.

文摘To get the satisfying performance of a PID controller, this paper presents a novel Pareto-based multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA), which can be used to find the appropriate setting of the PID controller by analyzing the pareto optimal surfaces. Rated settings of the controller by two criteria, the error between output and reference signals and control moves, are listed on the pareto surface. Appropriate setting can be chosen under a balance between two criteria for different control purposes. A controller tuning problem for a plant with high order and time delay is chosen as an example. Simulation results show that the method of MOGA is more efficient compared with traditional tuning methods.

文摘Shenvi et al.have proposed a quantum algorithm based on quantum walking called Shenvi-Kempe-Whaley(SKW)algorithm,but this search algorithm can only search one target state and use a specific search target state vector.Therefore,when there are more than two target nodes in the search space,the algorithm has certain limitations.Even though a multiobjective SKW search algorithm was proposed later,when the number of target nodes is more than two,the SKW search algorithm cannot be mapped to the same quotient graph.In addition,the calculation of the optimal target state depends on the number of target states m.In previous studies,quantum computing and testing algorithms were used to solve this problem.But these solutions require more Oracle calls and cannot get a high accuracy rate.Therefore,to solve the above problems,we improve the multi-target quantum walk search algorithm,and construct a controllable quantum walk search algorithm under the condition of unknown number of target states.By dividing the Hilbert space into multiple subspaces,the accuracy of the search algorithm is improved from p_(c)=(1/2)-O(1/n)to p_(c)=1-O(1/n).And by adding detection gate phase,the algorithm can stop when the amplitude of the target state becomes the maximum for the first time,and the algorithm can always maintain the optimal number of iterations,so as to reduce the number of unnecessary iterations in the algorithm process and make the number of iterations reach t_(f)=(π/2)(?).

文摘Power systems are pivotal in providing sustainable energy across various sectors.However,optimizing their performance to meet modern demands remains a significant challenge.This paper introduces an innovative strategy to improve the opti-mization of PID controllers within nonlinear oscillatory Automatic Generation Control(AGC)systems,essential for the stability of power systems.Our approach aims to reduce the integrated time squared error,the integrated time absolute error,and the rate of change in deviation,facilitating faster convergence,diminished overshoot,and decreased oscillations.By incorporating the spiral model from the Whale Optimization Algorithm(WOA)into the Multi-Objective Marine Predator Algorithm(MOMPA),our method effectively broadens the diversity of solution sets and finely tunes the balance between exploration and exploitation strategies.Furthermore,the QQSMOMPA framework integrates quasi-oppositional learning and Q-learning to overcome local optima,thereby generating optimal Pareto solutions.When applied to nonlinear AGC systems featuring governor dead zones,the PID controllers optimized by QQSMOMPA not only achieve 14%reduction in the frequency settling time but also exhibit robustness against uncertainties in load disturbance inputs.

文摘Software Defined Network(SDN)has been developed rapidly in technology and popularized in application due to its efficiency and flexibility in network management.In multi-controller SDN architecture,the Controller Placement Problem(CPP)must be solved carefully as it directly affects the whole network performance.This paper proposes a Multi-objective Greedy Optimized K-means Algorithm(MGOKA)to solve this problem to optimize worst-case and average delay between switches and controllers as well as synchronization delay and load balance among controllers for Wide Area Networks(WAN).MGOKA combines the process of network partition based on the K-means algorithm with cluster fusion based on the greedy algorithm and designs a normalization strategy to convert a multi-objective into a single-objective optimization problem.The simulation results depict that in different network scales with different numbers of controllers,the relative optimization rate of our proposed algorithm compared with K-means,K-means++,and GOKA can reach up to 101.5%,109.9%,and 79.8%,respectively.Moreover,the error rate between MGOKA and the global optimal solution is always less than 4%.

文摘For dealing with the multi-objective optimization problems of parametric design for aircraft, a novel hybrid parallel multi-objective tabu search （HPMOTS） algorithm is used. First, a new multi-objective tabu search （MOTS） algorithm is proposed. Comparing with the traditional MOTS algorithm, this proposed algorithm adds some new methods such as the combination of MOTS algorithm and ＂Pareto solution＂, the strategy of ＂searching from many directions＂ and the reservation of good solutions. Second, this article also proposes the improved parallel multi-objective tabu search （PMOTS） algorithm. Finally, a new hybrid algorithm--HPMOTS algorithm which combines the PMOTS algorithm with the non-dominated sorting-based multi-objective genetic algorithm （NSGA） is presented. The computing results of these algorithms are compared with each other and it is shown that the optimal result can be obtained by the HPMOTS algorithm and the computing result of the PMOTS algorithm is better than that of MOTS algorithm.

文摘A transonic airfoil designed by means of classical point-optimization may result in its dramatically inferior performance under off-design conditions. To overcome this shortcoming, robust design is proposed to find out the optimal profile of an airfoil to maintain its performance in an uncertain environment. The robust airfoil optimization is aimed to minimize mean values and variances of drag coefficients while satisfying the lift and thickness constraints over a range of Mach numbers. A multi-objective estimation of distribution algorithm is applied to the robust airfoil optimization on the base of the RAE2822 benchmark airfoil. The shape of the airfoil is obtained through superposing ten Hick-Henne shape functions upon the benchmark airfoil. A set of design points is selected according to a uniform design table for aerodynamic evaluation. A Kriging model of drag coefficient is constructed with those points to reduce computing costs. Over the Mach range from 0.7 to 0.8, the airfoil generated by the robust optimization has a configuration characterized by supercritical airfoil with low drag coefficients. The small fluctuation in its drag coefficients means that the performance of the robust airfoil is insensitive to variation of Mach number.

文摘The intelligent optimization of a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm is combined with a gradient algorithm. The hybrid multi-objective gradient algorithm is framed by the real number. Test functions are used to analyze the efficiency of the algorithm. In the simulation case of the water phantom, the algorithm is applied to an inverse planning process of intensity modulated radiation treatment （IMRT）. The objective functions of planning target volume （PTV） and normal tissue （NT） are based on the average dose distribution. The obtained intensity profile shows that the hybrid multi-objective gradient algorithm saves the computational time and has good accuracy, thus meeting the requirements of practical applications.
文摘In the flexible job-shop scheduling problem （FJSP）, each operation has to be assigned to a machine from a set of capable machines before alocating the assigned operations on all machines. To solve the multi-objective FJSP, the Grantt graph oriented string representation （GOSR） and the basic manipulation of the genetic algorithm operator are presented. An integrated operator genetic algorithm （IOGA） and its process are described. Comparison between computational results and the latest research shows that the proposed algorithm is effective in reducing the total workload of all machines, the makespan and the critical machine workload.
