文摘In-situ enlargement of super-large-span tunnels can intensify excavation-induced unloading in the surrounding rock,increasing deformation demand and failure risk during construction.This study combines laboratory model tests with FLAC3D simulations to evaluate the stabilizing role of prestressed anchor cables and to establish an energy-balance framework for support optimization.Comparative model tests of existing and enlarged tunnel sections,with and without anchors,show that reinforcement increases load-carrying capacity,reduces displacement,and confines damage to more localized zones.The numerical simulations reproduce displacement fields,shear-strain localization,and plastic-zone evolution with good agreement against the experimental observations.The energy framework is implemented in the in-situ simulations by quantifying unloading-related energy release in the rock mass and reinforcement work contributed by the anchors,and by introducing an energy release–reinforcement ratio as a stability indicator.Parametric analyses indicate that anchor length,spacing,and prestress influence stability in a nonlinear manner,with diminishing returns once reinforcement extends beyond the mechanically dominant deformation zone.An efficient parameter window is identified that improves deformation and yielding control while avoiding unnecessary reinforcement.The results provide an energy-consistent and design-oriented basis for prestressed anchorage selection in large-span tunnel expansion.

文摘Intervention strategies to control non-point source nitrogen(N)and phosphorus(P)pollution in agriculture are expensive and there is a trade-off between engineering cost and treatment effectiveness.Implementing strategies often result in unsatisfactory outcomes and massive engineering costs when managing diffusive pollution in agricultural catchments.To address this issue,this paper proposes a robust,handy,catchment N&P decision support system(CNPDSS),an Android-based smartphone system integrated with a web-based geographic information system(GIS).The CNPDSS aims to provide artificial intelligence-driven decisions that minimize N&P loadings and engineering costs for mitigating pollution in agricultural catchments.It consists of four components:a general user interface(GUI),GIS,N&P pollution modeling(NPPM),and a DSS.The CNPDSS simplifies the GUI and integrates GIS modules to create a user-friendly interface,enabling non-professional users to operate the system easily through intuitive actions.The NPPM uses straightforward empirical models to predict N&P loadings,enhancing efficiency by avoiding excessive parameters.Taking into account the N&P movement pathway in the catchment,the DSS incorporates three control measures:source reduction in farmland(before migration stage),process retention by ecological ditch(midway transport stage),and down-end purification by constructed wetland(waterbody discharge stage),to formulate a comprehensive ternary controlling strategy.To optimize the cost-effectiveness of any proposed N&P control strategies for sub-catchments,a differential evolution algorithm(DEA)is employed in CNPDSS to carry out a dual-objective decision-making optimization computation.In this study,the CNPDSS is applied to a case study in an agricultural catchment in Central China to develop the most cost-effective ternary N&P control strategies that ensure the catchment water quality within Criterion Ⅲ of the Chinese Surface Water Quality Standard GB3838-2002 is met(total N concentration≤1.0 mg L^(-1)and total P concentration≤0.2 mg L^(-1)).Our results demonstrate that the CNPDSS is feasible and also possesses an adaptive design and flexible architecture to enable its generalization and extension to support strong hands-on applications in other catchments.

文摘Deep coal mining rock support structures using rock bolts face complex geological conditions such as high ground temperatures and groundwater.Rock mass deformation and failure caused by bolt failure frequently occur,making it crucial to enhance the anchoring performance of rock bolts.First,the stress state of the anchor rod under axial loading across five stages of any anchored segment is analyzed.The shear stress patterns at the anchoring interface during different stages are elucidated.A refined mechanical model of the anchoring interface incorporating surface rib parameters is established.A failure criterion for the anchoring interface under the influence of ground temperature or groundwater is derived and validated.Second,the influence of anchor rib parameters on anchoring force is abalyzed,and in-situ shear tests are conducted.Results indicate that increasing the rib angle and optimizing rib spacing can enhance anchoring force.To minimize the shear component of axial force at the anchor interface,the rib angle of the anchor bolt should not be less than 70°.When the anchor grout possesses high inherent strength,the spacing between ribs on the anchor bolt surface may be increased(to 24 mm or greater).Finally,methods for enhancing the anchoring performance of bolts in deep complex strata are proposed,providing technical references for the safe and efficient support of tunnel rock masses in similar geological conditions.
文摘This research systematically investigates urban three-dimensional greening layout optimization and smart ecocity construction using deep learning and remote sensing technology.An improved U-Net++ architecture combined with multi-source remote sensing data achieved high-precision recognition of urban three-dimensional greening with 92.8% overall accuracy.Analysis of spatiotemporal evolution patterns in Shanghai,Hangzhou,and Nanjing revealed that threedimensional greening shows a development trend from demonstration to popularization,with 16.5% annual growth rate.The study quantitatively assessed ecological benefits of various three-dimensional greening types.Results indicate that modular vertical greening and intensive roof gardens yield highest ecological benefits,while climbing-type vertical greening and extensive roof gardens offer optimal benefit-cost ratios.Integration of multiple forms generates 15-22% synergistic enhancement.Compared with traditional planning,the multi-objective optimization-based layout achieved 27.5% increase in carbon sequestration,32.6% improvement in temperature regulation,35.8% enhancement in stormwater management,and 42.3% rise in biodiversity index.Three pilot projects validated that actual ecological benefits reached 90.3-102.3% of predicted values.Multi-scenario simulations indicate optimized layouts can reduce urban heat island intensity by 15.2-18.7%,increase carbon neutrality contribution to 8.6-10.2%,and decrease stormwater runoff peaks by 25.3-32.6%.The findings provide technical methods for urban three-dimensional greening optimization and smart eco-city construction,promoting sustainable urban development.

文摘Web pillars enduring complex coupled loads are critical for stability in high-wall mining.This study develops a dynamic failure criterion for web pillars under non-uniform loading using catastrophe theory.Through the analysis of the web pillar-overburden system’s dynamic stress and deformation,a total potential energy function and dynamic failure criterion were established for web pillars.An optimizing method for web pillar parameters was developed in highwall mining.The dynamic criterion established was used to evaluate the dynamic failure and stability of web pillars under static and dynamic loading.Key findings reveal that vertical displacements exhibit exponential-trigonometric variation under static loads and multi-variable power-law behavior under dynamic blasting.Instability risks arise when the roof’s tensile strength-to-stress ratio drops below 1.Using catastrophe theory,the bifurcation setΔ<0 signals sudden instability.The criterion defines failure as when the unstable web pillar section length l1 exceeds the roof’s critical collapse distance l2.Case studies and simulations determine an optimal web pillar width of 4.6 m.This research enhances safety and resource recovery,providing a theoretical framework for advancing highwall mining technology.

文摘In this paper,an adaptive cubic regularisation algorithm based on affine scaling methods(ARCBASM)is proposed for solving nonlinear equality constrained programming with nonnegative constraints on variables.From the optimality conditions of the problem,we introduce appropriate affine matrix and construct an affine scaling ARC subproblem with linearized constraints.Composite step methods and reduced Hessian methods are applied to tackle the linearized constraints.As a result,a standard unconstrained ARC subproblem is deduced and its solution can supply sufficient decrease.The fraction to the boundary rule maintains the strict feasibility(for nonnegative constraints on variables)of every iteration point.Reflection techniques are employed to prevent the iterations from approaching zero too early.Under mild assumptions,global convergence of the algorithm is analysed.Preliminary numerical results are reported.

文摘To study the influence of support timing and support strength on the mechanical properties and deformation damage characteristics of a single-sided unloaded rock mass,a true triaxial perturbation unloaded rock testing system was used to conduct rock damage tests on sandstone with different support timing and strength paths.Based on the acoustic emission monitoring system,the spatial and temporal evolution characteristics of the whole process of rock body loaded instability under two stress paths were studied,and the mechanism of the reinforcing effect of stress support on the unloaded rock mass was analyzed.The results show that,within the scope of this study,both earlier applications of shoring and an increase in shoring strength can effectively improve the ultimate bearing capacity of the unloaded rock,which increases the ultimate bearing capacity of the unloaded rock mass by 60.31% and 54.96%,respectively;There is a phenomenon of rebound deformation of the rock mass during sudden changes in stress(single-sided unloading,stress support),which shows opposite expansion and compression platforms on the stress−strain curve;The crack evolution of unloaded rock under different stress support conditions shows the state law of"initial crack activation→middle steady state expansion→late main crack penetration",and the lagging support significantly accelerates the crack evolution from local activation to main penetration;The single-sided unloading and stress-supporting stages have less influence on the unloading deformationsσ_(1u),σ_(2u) and support deformationsσ_(1) t,σ_(2t) in theσ_(1) andσ_(2)directions,while they show significant response characteristics toσ_(3u),σ_(vu) and σ_(3) t,σ_(vt),and with the increase of the support strength,the stress-supporting stagesσ_(3) t,σ_(vt) gradually increase and exceed the deformations generated by the unloading stagesσ_(3u),σ_(vu);The increase of support strength can effectively compensate for the rock stress loss caused by unloading,which makes the maximum,minimum,and volumetric strain support coefficients during the loading and unloading of the rock body increase gradually while the effect on the intermediate principal strain support coefficient is small;During loading,the support strength of rock masses seeks a new bearing area by regulating stress equilibrium states.This process primarily manifests as a shift in the locations of the crushing zone and the main bearing area,accompanied by a corresponding transformation in failure patterns.Consequently,the rock mass transitions from asymmetric three-zone damage under no or weak support to approximate symmetric three-zone damage under strong support.Simultaneously,the main load-bearing area of the rock mass shifts from deep bearing in the unsupported to middle bearing under strong support as the support strength increases.

文摘Refractory metals,including tungsten(W),tantalum(Ta),molybdenum(Mo),and niobium(Nb),play a vital role in industries,such as nuclear energy and aerospace,owing to their exceptional melting temperatures,thermal durability,and corrosion resistance.These metals have body-centered cubic crystal structure,characterized by limited slip systems and impeded dislocation motion,resulting in significant low-temperature brittleness,which poses challenges for the conventional processing.Additive manufacturing technique provides an innovative approach,enabling the production of intricate parts without molds,which significantly improves the efficiency of material usage.This review provides a comprehensive overview of the advancements in additive manufacturing techniques for the production of refractory metals,such as W,Ta,Mo,and Nb,particularly the laser powder bed fusion.In this review,the influence mechanisms of key process parameters(laser power,scan strategy,and powder characteristics)on the evolution of material microstructure,the formation of metallurgical defects,and mechanical properties were discussed.Generally,optimizing powder characteristics,such as sphericity,implementing substrate preheating,and formulating alloying strategies can significantly improve the densification and crack resistance of manufactured parts.Meanwhile,strictly controlling the oxygen impurity content and optimizing the energy density input are also the key factors to achieve the simultaneous improvement in strength and ductility of refractory metals.Although additive manufacturing technique provides an innovative solution for processing refractory metals,critical issues,such as residual stress control,microstructure and performance anisotropy,and process stability,still need to be addressed.This review not only provides a theoretical basis for the additive manufacturing of high-performance refractory metals,but also proposes forward-looking directions for their industrial application.
文摘Aiming to solve the steering instability and hysteresis of agricultural robots in the process of movement,a fusion PID control method of particle swarm optimization(PSO)and genetic algorithm(GA)was proposed.The fusion algorithm took advantage of the fast optimization ability of PSO to optimize the population screening link of GA.The Simulink simulation results showed that the convergence of the fitness function of the fusion algorithm was accelerated,the system response adjustment time was reduced,and the overshoot was almost zero.Then the algorithm was applied to the steering test of agricultural robot in various scenes.After modeling the steering system of agricultural robot,the steering test results in the unloaded suspended state showed that the PID control based on fusion algorithm reduced the rise time,response adjustment time and overshoot of the system,and improved the response speed and stability of the system,compared with the artificial trial and error PID control and the PID control based on GA.The actual road steering test results showed that the PID control response rise time based on the fusion algorithm was the shortest,about 4.43 s.When the target pulse number was set to 100,the actual mean value in the steady-state regulation stage was about 102.9,which was the closest to the target value among the three control methods,and the overshoot was reduced at the same time.The steering test results under various scene states showed that the PID control based on the proposed fusion algorithm had good anti-interference ability,it can adapt to the changes of environment and load and improve the performance of the control system.It was effective in the steering control of agricultural robot.This method can provide a reference for the precise steering control of other robots.

文摘Optimization problems are prevalent in various fields of science and engineering,with several real-world applications characterized by high dimensionality and complex search landscapes.Starfish optimization algorithm(SFOA)is a recently optimizer inspired by swarm intelligence,which is effective for numerical optimization,but it may encounter premature and local convergence for complex optimization problems.To address these challenges,this paper proposes the multi-strategy enhanced crested porcupine-starfish optimization algorithm(MCPSFOA).The core innovation of MCPSFOA lies in employing a hybrid strategy to improve SFOA,which integrates the exploratory mechanisms of SFOA with the diverse search capacity of the Crested Porcupine Optimizer(CPO).This synergy enhances MCPSFOA’s ability to navigate complex and multimodal search spaces.To further prevent premature convergence,MCPSFOA incorporates Lévy flight,leveraging its characteristic long and short jump patterns to enable large-scale exploration and escape from local optima.Subsequently,Gaussian mutation is applied for precise solution tuning,introducing controlled perturbations that enhance accuracy and mitigate the risk of insufficient exploitation.Notably,the population diversity enhancement mechanism periodically identifies and resets stagnant individuals,thereby consistently revitalizing population variety throughout the optimization process.MCPSFOA is rigorously evaluated on 24 classical benchmark functions(including high-dimensional cases),the CEC2017 suite,and the CEC2022 suite.MCPSFOA achieves superior overall performance with Friedman mean ranks of 2.208,2.310 and 2.417 on these benchmark functions,outperforming 11 state-of-the-art algorithms.Furthermore,the practical applicability of MCPSFOA is confirmed through its successful application to five engineering optimization cases,where it also yields excellent results.In conclusion,MCPSFOA is not only a highly effective and reliable optimizer for benchmark functions,but also a practical tool for solving real-world optimization problems.
文摘Optimizing the rotor pole-shoe structure of large salient pole synchronous motors is critical for improving their performance and efficiency,allowing for enhanced responsiveness to grid demands and adjustments in operating conditions.This paper provides a comprehensive review of various pole-shoe structures for salient pole synchronous motor rotors and their associated optimization techniques.First,it outlines the role of the pole-shoe structure and examines the theoretical theories of key electromagnetic parameters,including the pole-arc coefficient,voltage waveform coefficient,and armature reaction coefficient.Regarding structural design,this paper explores several configurations,including the threesegment arc,five-segment arc,single eccentric pole-arc combined with two chordal surface sections,and asymmetric poles.The effects of these designs on the air-gap magnetic field distribution and voltage waveform are evaluated.In terms of methodology,this paper reviews the application of numerical solutions to electromagnetic field inverse problems and the use of optimization algorithms for electrical machine structural optimization.This study illustrates the application of improved simulated annealing algorithms,tabu search algorithms,and particle swarm optimization algorithms for single-objective optimization of five-segment arc pole-shoe structures.Additionally,this paper discusses the use of vector tabu search and multi-objective quantum evolutionary algorithms for the multi-objective optimization of five-segment arc pole-shoe structures.The study concludes that multi-objective optimization algorithms are underutilized for pole-shoe structure optimization and suggests that multi-objective particle swarm optimization could be more extensively employed for this purpose.Furthermore,the potential application of topology optimization methods for the design of salient-pole synchronous motor rotor magnetic poles is proposed.

文摘In the conceptual design phase of the satellite thermal management system,components layout optimization and structural topology optimization of satellite panel can meet global and local thermal management requirements,respectively.However,achieving non-interfering coupling between these two optimization processes remains a challenge.An integrated layout-structure design method based on thermal metamaterials is proposed,which comprises two design stages.In the first stage,components layout optimization is conducted to maximize temperature uniformity within the satellite module,yielding a globally optimized layout with balanced thermal characteristics.In the second stage,topology optimization guided by the design principle of thermal metamaterials is implemented in critical local panel regions to satisfy differentiated heat transfer requirements of components with diverse functional and thermal sensitivity properties.The key innovation lies in utilizing thermal metamaterials as a mediator to synergistically couple global components layout optimization with local structural topology optimization,which enables customized local heat flux manipulation without interfering with the globally optimized temperature field derived from the layout optimization.The method introduces neither additional mass nor special materials,offering advantages of low cost,high reliability,and strong versatility.It provides a new solution paradigm for the design of passive thermal management systems in satellites.

文摘Deployable Composite Thin-Walled Structures(DCTWS)are widely used in space applications due to their ability to compactly fold and self-deploy in orbit,enabled by cutouts.Cutout design is crucial for balancing structural rigidity and flexibility,ensuring material integrity during large deformations,and providing adequate load-bearing capacity and stability once deployed.Most research has focused on optimizing cutout size and shape,while topology optimization offers a broader design space.However,the anisotropic properties of woven composite laminates,complex failure criteria,and multi-performance optimization needs have limited the exploration of topology optimization in this field.This work derives the sensitivities of bending stiffness,critical buckling load,and the failure index of woven composite materials with respect to element density,and formulates both single-objective and multi-objective topology optimization models using a linear weighted aggregation approach.The developed method was integrated with the commercial finite element software ABAQUS via a Python script,allowing efficient application to cutout design in various DCTWS configurations to maximize bending stiffness and critical buckling load under material failure constraints.Optimization of a classical tubular hinge resulted in improvements of 107.7%in bending stiffness and 420.5%in critical buckling load compared to level-set topology optimization results reported in the literature,validating the effectiveness of the approach.To facilitate future research and encourage the broader adoption of topology optimization techniques in DCTWS design,the source code for this work is made publicly available via a Git Hub link:https://github.com/jinhao-ok1/Topo-for-DCTWS.git.
文摘Optimization algorithms are crucial for solving NP-hard problems in engineering and computational sciences.Metaheuristic algorithms,in particular,have proven highly effective in complex optimization scenarios characterized by high dimensionality and intricate variable relationships.The Mountain Gazelle Optimizer(MGO)is notably effective but struggles to balance local search refinement and global space exploration,often leading to premature convergence and entrapment in local optima.This paper presents the Improved MGO(IMGO),which integrates three synergistic enhancements:dynamic chaos mapping using piecewise chaotic sequences to boost explo-ration diversity;Opposition-Based Learning(OBL)with adaptive,diversity-driven activation to speed up convergence;and structural refinements to the position update mechanisms to enhance exploitation.The IMGO underwent a comprehensive evaluation using 52 standardised benchmark functions and seven engineering optimization problems.Benchmark evaluations showed that IMGO achieved the highest rank in best solution quality for 31 functions,the highest rank in mean performance for 18 functions,and the highest rank in worst-case performance for 14 functions among 11 competing algorithms.Statistical validation using Wilcoxon signed-rank tests confirmed that IMGO outperformed individual competitors across 16 to 50 functions,depending on the algorithm.At the same time,Friedman ranking analysis placed IMGO with an average rank of 4.15,compared to the baseline MGO’s 4.38,establishing the best overall performance.The evaluation of engineering problems revealed consistent improvements,including an optimal cost of 1.6896 for the welded beam design vs.MGO’s 1.7249,a minimum cost of 5885.33 for the pressure vessel design vs.MGO’s 6300,and a minimum weight of 2964.52 kg for the speed reducer design vs.MGO’s 2990.00 kg.Ablation studies identified OBL as the strongest individual contributor,whereas complete integration achieved superior performance through synergistic interactions among components.Computational complexity analysis established an O(T×N×5×f(P))time complexity,representing a 1.25×increase in fitness evaluation relative to the baseline MGO,validating the favorable accuracy-efficiency trade-offs for practical optimization applications.
文摘Metaheuristic optimization algorithms continue to be essential for solving complex real-world problems,yet existingmethods often struggle with balancing exploration and exploitation across diverse problem landscapes.This paper proposes a novel nature-inspired metaheuristic optimization algorithm named the Painted Wolf Optimization(PWO)algorithm.The main inspiration for the PWO algorithm is the group behavior and hunting strategy of painted wolves,also known as African wild dogs in the wild,particularly their unique consensus-based voting rally mechanism,a behavior fundamentally distinct fromthe social dynamics of grey wolves.In this innovative process,pack members explore different areas to find prey;then,they hold a pre-hunting voting rally based on the alpha member to determine who will begin the hunt and attack the prey.The efficiency of the proposed PWO algorithm is evaluated by a comparison study with other well-known optimization algorithms on 33 test functions,including the Congress on Evolutionary Computation(CEC)2017 suite and different real-world engineering design cases.Furthermore,the algorithm’s performance is further tested across a spectrum of optimization problems with extensive unknown search spaces.This includes its application within the field of cybersecurity,specifically in the context of training a machine learning-based intrusion detection system(ML-IDS),achieving an accuracy of 0.90 and an F-measure of 0.9290.Statistical analyses using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test(all p<0.05)indicate that the PWO algorithm outperforms existing state-of-the-art algorithms,providing superior solutions in diverse and unpredictable optimization landscapes.This demonstrates its potential as a robust method for tackling complex optimization problems in various fields.The source code for thePWOalgorithmis publicly available at https://github.com/saeidsheikhi/Painted-Wolf-Optimization.
