For the safe and stable operation of the wind–thermal bundled power system, accurate data-driven analysis is necessary to maintain real-time balance between electricity supply and demand. By summarizing the development and characteristics of wind–thermal bundled power system in China and different countries, current research in this field can be clearly defined in two aspects: short-term wind power prediction for wind farms and performance evaluation of automatic generation control (AGC) for thermal power generation units. For short-term wind power prediction, it is recommended to focus on historical data preprocessing and artificial intelligence methods. The technical characteristics of different data-driven wind power prediction methods have been compared in detail. For performance evaluation of AGC units, a comprehensive analysis was conducted on current evaluation methods, including the “permitted-band” and “regulation mileage” methods, as well as the issue of evaluation failure in traditional evaluation methods in practical engineering. Finally, the relative optimal dynamic performance of AGC units was discussed and the future trend of data-driven research in wind–thermal bundled power system was summarized.展开更多

文摘Hydraulic fracturing technology has achieved remarkable results in improving the production of tight gas reservoirs,but its effectiveness is under the joint action of multiple factors of complexity.Traditional analysis methods have limitations in dealing with these complex and interrelated factors,and it is difficult to fully reveal the actual contribution of each factor to the production.Machine learning-based methods explore the complex mapping relationships between large amounts of data to provide datadriven insights into the key factors driving production.In this study,a data-driven PCA-RF-VIM(Principal Component Analysis-Random Forest-Variable Importance Measures)approach of analyzing the importance of features is proposed to identify the key factors driving post-fracturing production.Four types of parameters,including log parameters,geological and reservoir physical parameters,hydraulic fracturing design parameters,and reservoir stimulation parameters,were inputted into the PCA-RF-VIM model.The model was trained using 6-fold cross-validation and grid search,and the relative importance ranking of each factor was finally obtained.In order to verify the validity of the PCA-RF-VIM model,a consolidation model that uses three other independent data-driven methods(Pearson correlation coefficient,RF feature significance analysis method,and XGboost feature significance analysis method)are applied to compare with the PCA-RF-VIM model.A comparison the two models shows that they contain almost the same parameters in the top ten,with only minor differences in one parameter.In combination with the reservoir characteristics,the reasonableness of the PCA-RF-VIM model is verified,and the importance ranking of the parameters by this method is more consistent with the reservoir characteristics of the study area.Ultimately,the ten parameters are selected as the controlling factors that have the potential to influence post-fracturing gas production,as the combined importance of these top ten parameters is 91.95%on driving natural gas production.Analyzing and obtaining these ten controlling factors provides engineers with a new insight into the reservoir selection for fracturing stimulation and fracturing parameter optimization to improve fracturing efficiency and productivity.

文摘We propose an integrated method of data-driven and mechanism models for well logging formation evaluation,explicitly focusing on predicting reservoir parameters,such as porosity and water saturation.Accurately interpreting these parameters is crucial for effectively exploring and developing oil and gas.However,with the increasing complexity of geological conditions in this industry,there is a growing demand for improved accuracy in reservoir parameter prediction,leading to higher costs associated with manual interpretation.The conventional logging interpretation methods rely on empirical relationships between logging data and reservoir parameters,which suffer from low interpretation efficiency,intense subjectivity,and suitability for ideal conditions.The application of artificial intelligence in the interpretation of logging data provides a new solution to the problems existing in traditional methods.It is expected to improve the accuracy and efficiency of the interpretation.If large and high-quality datasets exist,data-driven models can reveal relationships of arbitrary complexity.Nevertheless,constructing sufficiently large logging datasets with reliable labels remains challenging,making it difficult to apply data-driven models effectively in logging data interpretation.Furthermore,data-driven models often act as“black boxes”without explaining their predictions or ensuring compliance with primary physical constraints.This paper proposes a machine learning method with strong physical constraints by integrating mechanism and data-driven models.Prior knowledge of logging data interpretation is embedded into machine learning regarding network structure,loss function,and optimization algorithm.We employ the Physically Informed Auto-Encoder(PIAE)to predict porosity and water saturation,which can be trained without labeled reservoir parameters using self-supervised learning techniques.This approach effectively achieves automated interpretation and facilitates generalization across diverse datasets.

文摘This study employs a data-driven methodology that embeds the principle of dimensional invariance into an artificial neural network to automatically identify dominant dimensionless quantities in the penetration of rod projectiles into semi-infinite metal targets from experimental measurements.The derived mathematical expressions of dimensionless quantities are simplified by the examination of the exponent matrix and coupling relationships between feature variables.As a physics-based dimension reduction methodology,this way reduces high-dimensional parameter spaces to descriptions involving only a few physically interpretable dimensionless quantities in penetrating cases.Then the relative importance of various dimensionless feature variables on the penetration efficiencies for four impacting conditions is evaluated through feature selection engineering.The results indicate that the selected critical dimensionless feature variables by this synergistic method,without referring to the complex theoretical equations and aiding in the detailed knowledge of penetration mechanics,are in accordance with those reported in the reference.Lastly,the determined dimensionless quantities can be efficiently applied to conduct semi-empirical analysis for the specific penetrating case,and the reliability of regression functions is validated.

文摘Soil improvement is one of the most important issues in geotechnical engineering practice.The wide application of traditional improvement techniques(cement/chemical materials)are limited due to damage ecological en-vironment and intensify carbon emissions.However,the use of microbially induced calcium carbonate pre-cipitation(MICP)to obtain bio-cement is a novel technique with the potential to induce soil stability,providing a low-carbon,environment-friendly,and sustainable integrated solution for some geotechnical engineering pro-blems in the environment.This paper presents a comprehensive review of the latest progress in soil improvement based on the MICP strategy.It systematically summarizes and overviews the mineralization mechanism,influ-encing factors,improved methods,engineering characteristics,and current field application status of the MICP.Additionally,it also explores the limitations and correspondingly proposes prospective applications via the MICP approach for soil improvement.This review indicates that the utilization of different environmental calcium-based wastes in MICP and combination of materials and MICP are conducive to meeting engineering and market demand.Furthermore,we recommend and encourage global collaborative study and practice with a view to commercializing MICP technique in the future.The current review purports to provide insights for engineers and interdisciplinary researchers,and guidance for future engineering applications.
文摘The wind–thermal bundled power system achieves energy complementarity and optimized scheduling, which is an important way to build a new type of energy system. For the safe and stable operation of the wind–thermal bundled power system, accurate data-driven analysis is necessary to maintain real-time balance between electricity supply and demand. By summarizing the development and characteristics of wind–thermal bundled power system in China and different countries, current research in this field can be clearly defined in two aspects: short-term wind power prediction for wind farms and performance evaluation of automatic generation control (AGC) for thermal power generation units. For short-term wind power prediction, it is recommended to focus on historical data preprocessing and artificial intelligence methods. The technical characteristics of different data-driven wind power prediction methods have been compared in detail. For performance evaluation of AGC units, a comprehensive analysis was conducted on current evaluation methods, including the “permitted-band” and “regulation mileage” methods, as well as the issue of evaluation failure in traditional evaluation methods in practical engineering. Finally, the relative optimal dynamic performance of AGC units was discussed and the future trend of data-driven research in wind–thermal bundled power system was summarized.

文摘Ocean energy has progressively gained considerable interest due to its sufficient potential to meet the world’s energy demand,and the blade is the core component in electricity generation from the ocean current.However,the widened hydraulic excitation frequency may satisfy the blade resonance due to the time variation in the velocity and angle of attack of the ocean current,even resulting in blade fatigue and destructively interfering with grid stability.A key parameter that determines the resonance amplitude of the blade is the hydrodynamic damping ratio(HDR).However,HDR is difficult to obtain due to the complex fluid-structure interaction(FSI).Therefore,a literature review was conducted on the hydrodynamic damping characteristics of blade-like structures.The experimental and simulation methods used to identify and obtain the HDR quantitatively were described,placing emphasis on the experimental processes and simulation setups.Moreover,the accuracy and efficiency of different simulation methods were compared,and the modal work approach was recommended.The effects of key typical parameters,including flow velocity,angle of attack,gap,rotational speed,and cavitation,on the HDR were then summarized,and the suggestions on operating conditions were presented from the perspective of increasing the HDR.Subsequently,considering multiple flow parameters,several theoretical derivations and semi-empirical prediction formulas for HDR were introduced,and the accuracy and application were discussed.Based on the shortcomings of the existing research,the direction of future research was finally determined.The current work offers a clear understanding of the HDR of blade-like structures,which could improve the evaluation accuracy of flow-induced vibration in the design stage.

文摘For control systems with unknown model parameters,this paper proposes a data-driven iterative learning method for fault estimation.First,input and output data from the system under fault-free conditions are collected.By applying orthogonal triangular decomposition and singular value decomposition,a data-driven realization of the system's kernel representation is derived,based on this representation,a residual generator is constructed.Then,the actuator fault signal is estimated online by analyzing the system's dynamic residual,and an iterative learning algorithm is introduced to continuously optimize the residual-based performance function,thereby enhancing estimation accuracy.The proposed method achieves actuator fault estimation without requiring knowledge of model parameters,eliminating the time-consuming system modeling process,and allowing operators to focus on system optimization and decision-making.Compared with existing fault estimation methods,the proposed method demonstrates superior transient performance,steady-state performance,and real-time capability,reduces the need for manual intervention and lowers operational complexity.Finally,experimental results on a mobile robot verify the effectiveness and advantages of the method.

文摘The element-free Galerkin(EFG)method,which constructs shape functions via moving least squares(MLS)approximation,represents a fundamental and widely studied meshless method in numerical computation.Although it achieves high computational accuracy,the shape functions are more complex than those in the conventional finite element method(FEM),resulting in great computational requirements.Therefore,improving the computational efficiency of the EFG method represents an important research direction.This paper systematically reviews significant contributions fromdomestic and international scholars in advancing the EFGmethod.Including the improved element-free Galerkin(IEFG)method,various interpolating EFG methods,four distinct complex variable EFG methods,and a series of dimension splitting meshless methods.In the numerical examples,the effectiveness and efficiency of the three methods are validated by analyzing the solutions of the IEFG method for 3D steadystate anisotropic heat conduction,3D elastoplasticity,and large deformation problems,as well as the performance of two-dimensional splitting meshless methods in solving the 3D Helmholtz equation.
