文摘Short rotation plantation forestry(SRF)is being widely adopted to increase wood production,in order to meet global demand for wood products.However,to ensure maximum gains from SRF,optimised management regimes need to be established by integrating robust predictions and an understanding of mechanisms underlying tree growth.Hybrid ecophysiological models,such as potentially useable light sum equation(PULSE)models,are useful tools requiring minimal input data that meet the requirements of SRF.PULSE models have been tested and calibrated for different evergreen conifers and broadleaves at both juvenile and mature stages of tree growth with coarse soil and climate data.Therefore,it is prudent to question:can adding detailed soil and climatic data reduce errors in this type of model?In addition,PULSE techniques have not been used to model deciduous species,which are a challenge for ecophysiological models due to their phenology.This study developed a PULSE model for a clonal Populus tomentosa plantation in northern China using detailed edaphic and climatic data.The results showed high precision and low bias in height(m)and basal area(m^(2)·ha^(-1))predictions.While detailed edaphoclimatic data produce highly precise predictions and a good mechanistic understanding,the study suggested that local climatic data could also be employed.The study showed that PULSE modelling in combination with coarse level of edaphic and local climate data resulted in reasonably precise tree growth prediction and minimal bias.

文摘Numerical models are crucial for quantifying the ocean-atmosphere interactions associated with the El Niño-Southern Oscillation(ENSO)phenomenon in the tropical Pacific.Current coupled models often exhibit significant biases and inter-model differences in simulating ENSO,underscoring the need for alternative modeling approaches.The Regional Ocean Modeling System(ROMS)is a sophisticated ocean model widely used for regional studies and has been coupled with various atmospheric models.However,its application in simulating ENSO processes on a basin scale in the tropical Pacific has not been explored.For the first time,this study presents the development of a basin-scale hybrid coupled model(HCM)for the tropical Pacific,integrating ROMS with a statistical atmospheric model that captures the interannual relationships between sea surface temperature(SST)and wind stress anomalies.The HCM is evaluated for its capability to simulate the annual mean,seasonal,and interannual variations of the oceanic state in the tropical Pacific.Results demonstrate that the model effectively reproduces the ENSO cycle,with a dominant oscillation period of approximately two years.The ROMS-based HCM developed here offers an efficient and robust tool for investigating climate variability in the tropical Pacific.

文摘In this paper,we introduce an innovative method for computer-aided design(CAD)segmentation by concatenating meshes and CAD models.Many previous CAD segmentation methods have achieved impressive performance using single representations,such as meshes,CAD,and point clouds.However,existing methods cannot effectively combine different three-dimensional model types for the direct conversion,alignment,and integrity maintenance of geometric and topological information.Hence,we propose an integration approach that combines the geometric accuracy of CAD data with the flexibility of mesh representations,as well as introduce a unique hybrid representation that combines CAD and mesh models to enhance segmentation accuracy.To combine these two model types,our hybrid system utilizes advanced-neural-network techniques to convert CAD models into mesh models.For complex CAD models,model segmentation is crucial for model retrieval and reuse.In partial retrieval,it aims to segment a complex CAD model into several simple components.The first component of our hybrid system involves advanced mesh-labeling algorithms that harness the digitization of CAD properties to mesh models.The second component integrates labelled face features for CAD segmentation by leveraging the abundant multisemantic information embedded in CAD models.This combination of mesh and CAD not only refines the accuracy of boundary delineation but also provides a comprehensive understanding of the underlying object semantics.This study uses the Fusion 360 Gallery dataset.Experimental results indicate that our hybrid method can segment these models with higher accuracy than other methods that use single representations.

文摘The constitutive models of shape memory alloys(SMAs)play an important role in facilitating the widespread application of such types of alloys in various engineering fields.However,to accurately describe the deformation behaviors of SMAs,the concepts in classical plasticity are employed in the existing constitutive models,and a series of complex mathematical equations are involved.Such complexity brings inconvenience for the construction,implementation,and application of the constitutive models.To overcome these shortcomings,a data-driven constitutive model of SMAs is developed in this work based on the artificial neural network(ANN).In the proposed model,the components of the strain tensor in principal space,ambient temperature,and the maximum equivalent strain in the deformation history from the initial state to the current loading state are chosen as the input features,and the components of the stress tensor in principal space are set as the output.The proposed ANN-based constitutive model is implemented into the finite element program ABAQUS by deriving its consistent tangent modulus and writing a user-defined material subroutine.The stress-strain responses of SMA material under various loading paths and at different ambient temperatures are used to train the ANN model,which is generated from the existing constitutive model(numerical experiments).To validate the capability of the proposed model,the predicted stress-strain responses of SMA material,and the global and local responses of two typical SMA structures are compared with the corresponding numerical experiments.This work demonstrates a good potential to obtain the constitutive model of SMAs by pure data and avoid the need for vast stores of knowledge for the construction of constitutive models.

文摘With the rapid advancement of machine learning technology and its growing adoption in research and engineering applications,an increasing number of studies have embraced data-driven approaches for modeling wind turbine wakes.These models leverage the ability to capture complex,high-dimensional characteristics of wind turbine wakes while offering significantly greater efficiency in the prediction process than physics-driven models.As a result,data-driven wind turbine wake models are regarded as powerful and effective tools for predicting wake behavior and turbine power output.This paper aims to provide a concise yet comprehensive review of existing studies on wind turbine wake modeling that employ data-driven approaches.It begins by defining and classifying machine learning methods to facilitate a clearer understanding of the reviewed literature.Subsequently,the related studies are categorized into four key areas:wind turbine power prediction,data-driven analytic wake models,wake field reconstruction,and the incorporation of explicit physical constraints.The accuracy of data-driven models is influenced by two primary factors:the quality of the training data and the performance of the model itself.Accordingly,both data accuracy and model structure are discussed in detail within the review.

文摘This paper focuses on the numerical solution of a tumor growth model under a data-driven approach.Based on the inherent laws of the data and reasonable assumptions,an ordinary differential equation model for tumor growth is established.Nonlinear fitting is employed to obtain the optimal parameter estimation of the mathematical model,and the numerical solution is carried out using the Matlab software.By comparing the clinical data with the simulation results,a good agreement is achieved,which verifies the rationality and feasibility of the model.
文摘In recent years,there has been a concerted effort to improve anomaly detection tech-niques,particularly in the context of high-dimensional,distributed clinical data.Analysing patient data within clinical settings reveals a pronounced focus on refining diagnostic accuracy,personalising treatment plans,and optimising resource allocation to enhance clinical outcomes.Nonetheless,this domain faces unique challenges,such as irregular data collection,inconsistent data quality,and patient-specific structural variations.This paper proposed a novel hybrid approach that integrates heuristic and stochastic methods for anomaly detection in patient clinical data to address these challenges.The strategy combines HPO-based optimal Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise for clustering patient exercise data,facilitating efficient anomaly identification.Subsequently,a stochastic method based on the Interquartile Range filters unreliable data points,ensuring that medical tools and professionals receive only the most pertinent and accurate information.The primary objective of this study is to equip healthcare pro-fessionals and researchers with a robust tool for managing extensive,high-dimensional clinical datasets,enabling effective isolation and removal of aberrant data points.Furthermore,a sophisticated regression model has been developed using Automated Machine Learning(AutoML)to assess the impact of the ensemble abnormal pattern detection approach.Various statistical error estimation techniques validate the efficacy of the hybrid approach alongside AutoML.Experimental results show that implementing this innovative hybrid model on patient rehabilitation data leads to a notable enhance-ment in AutoML performance,with an average improvement of 0.041 in the R2 score,surpassing the effectiveness of traditional regression models.
文摘The world’s increasing population requires the process industry to produce food,fuels,chemicals,and consumer products in a more efficient and sustainable way.Functional process materials lie at the heart of this challenge.Traditionally,new advanced materials are found empirically or through trial-and-error approaches.As theoretical methods and associated tools are being continuously improved and computer power has reached a high level,it is now efficient and popular to use computational methods to guide material selection and design.Due to the strong interaction between material selection and the operation of the process in which the material is used,it is essential to perform material and process design simultaneously.Despite this significant connection,the solution of the integrated material and process design problem is not easy because multiple models at different scales are usually required.Hybrid modeling provides a promising option to tackle such complex design problems.In hybrid modeling,the material properties,which are computationally expensive to obtain,are described by data-driven models,while the well-known process-related principles are represented by mechanistic models.This article highlights the significance of hybrid modeling in multiscale material and process design.The generic design methodology is first introduced.Six important application areas are then selected:four from the chemical engineering field and two from the energy systems engineering domain.For each selected area,state-ofthe-art work using hybrid modeling for multiscale material and process design is discussed.Concluding remarks are provided at the end,and current limitations and future opportunities are pointed out.

文摘Alcohol oxidation is a widely used green chemical reaction.The reaction process produces flammable and explosive hydrogen,so the design of the reactor must meet stringent safety requirements.Based on the limited experimental data,utilizing the traditional numerical method of computational fluid dynamics(CFD)to simulate the gas-liquid two-phase flow reactor can mitigate the risk of danger under varying working conditions.However,the calculation process is highly time-consuming.Therefore,by integrating process simulation,computational fluid dynamics,and deep learning technologies,an intelligent hybrid chemical model based on machine learning was proposed to expedite CFD calculations,enhance the prediction of flow fields,conversion rates,and concentrations inside the reactor,and offer insights for designing and optimizing the reactor for the alcohol oxidation system.The results show that the hybrid model based on the long and short-term memory neural network achieves 99.8%accuracy in conversion rate prediction and 99.9%accuracy in product concentration prediction.Through validation,the hybrid model is accelerated by about 360 times compared with instrumental analysis in conversion rate prediction and about 45 times compared with CFD calculation in concentration distribution prediction.This hybrid model can quickly predict the conversion rate and product concentration distribution in the gas-liquid two-phase flow reactor and provide a model reference for fast prediction and accurate control in the actual chemical production process.
文摘Accurate prediction of wind energy plays a vital role in maintaining grid stability and supporting the broader shift toward renewable energy systems.Nevertheless,the inherently variable nature of wind and the intricacy of high-dimensional datasets pose major obstacles to reliable forecasting.To address these difficulties,this study presents an innovative hybrid method for short-term wind power prediction by combining a Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM)network with a Single Candidate Optimizer(SCO)algorithm.In contrast to conventional techniques that rely on random parameter initialization,the proposed LSTM-SCO framework leverages the distinctive capability of SCO to work with a single candidate solution,thereby substantially reducing the computational overhead compared to traditional population-based metaheuristics.The performance of the model was benchmarked against various classical and deep learning models across datasets from three geographically diverse sites,using multiple evaluation metrics.Experimental findings demonstrate that the SCO-optimized model enhances prediction accuracy by up to 12.5%over standard LSTM implementations.

文摘The distillation process is an important chemical process,and the application of data-driven modelling approach has the potential to reduce model complexity compared to mechanistic modelling,thus improving the efficiency of process optimization or monitoring studies.However,the distillation process is highly nonlinear and has multiple uncertainty perturbation intervals,which brings challenges to accurate data-driven modelling of distillation processes.This paper proposes a systematic data-driven modelling framework to solve these problems.Firstly,data segment variance was introduced into the K-means algorithm to form K-means data interval(KMDI)clustering in order to cluster the data into perturbed and steady state intervals for steady-state data extraction.Secondly,maximal information coefficient(MIC)was employed to calculate the nonlinear correlation between variables for removing redundant features.Finally,extreme gradient boosting(XGBoost)was integrated as the basic learner into adaptive boosting(AdaBoost)with the error threshold(ET)set to improve weights update strategy to construct the new integrated learning algorithm,XGBoost-AdaBoost-ET.The superiority of the proposed framework is verified by applying this data-driven modelling framework to a real industrial process of propylene distillation.

文摘Within the SILVARSTAR project,a user-friendly frequency-based hybrid prediction tool has been developed to assess the environmental impact of railway-induced vibration.This tool is integrated in existing noise mapping software.Following modern vibration standards and guidelines,the vibration velocity level in a building in each frequency band is expressed as the sum of a force density(source term),line source transfer mobility(propagation term)and building correction factor(receiver term).A hybrid approach is used that allows for a combination of experimental data and numerical predictions,providing increased flexibility and applicability.The train and track properties can be selected from a database or entered as numerical values.The user can select soil impedance and transfer functions from a database,pre-computed for a wide range of parameters with state-of-the-art models.An experimental database of force densities,transfer functions,free field vibration and input parameters is also provided.The building response is estimated by means of building correction factors.Assumptions within the modelling approach are made to reduce computation time but these can influence prediction accuracy;this is quantified for the case of a nominal intercity train running at different speeds on a ballasted track supported by homogeneous soil of varying stiffness.The paper focuses on the influence of these parameters on the compliance of the track–soil system and the free field response.We also demonstrate the use and discuss the validation of the vibration prediction tool for the case of a high-speed train running on a ballasted track in Lincent(Belgium).
文摘Permanent magnet synchronous motor(PMSM)is widely used in alternating current servo systems as it provides high eficiency,high power density,and a wide speed regulation range.The servo system is placing higher demands on its control performance.The model predictive control(MPC)algorithm is emerging as a potential high-performance motor control algorithm due to its capability of handling multiple-input and multipleoutput variables and imposed constraints.For the MPC used in the PMSM control process,there is a nonlinear disturbance caused by the change of electromagnetic parameters or load disturbance that may lead to a mismatch between the nominal model and the controlled object,which causes the prediction error and thus affects the dynamic stability of the control system.This paper proposes a data-driven MPC strategy in which the historical data in an appropriate range are utilized to eliminate the impact of parameter mismatch and further improve the control performance.The stability of the proposed algorithm is proved as the simulation demonstrates the feasibility.Compared with the classical MPC strategy,the superiority of the algorithm has also been verified.

文摘This study compared the predictive performance and processing speed of an artificial neural network(ANN)and a hybrid of a numerical reservoir simulation(NRS)and artificial neural network(NRS-ANN)models in estimating the oil production rate of the ZH86 reservoir block under waterflood recovery.The historical input variables:reservoir pressure,reservoir pore volume containing hydrocarbons,reservoir pore volume containing water and reservoir water injection rate used as inputs for ANN models.To create the NRS-ANN hybrid models,314 data sets extracted from the NRS model,which included reservoir pressure,reservoir pore volume containing hy-drocarbons,reservoir pore volume containing water and reservoir water injection rate were used.The output of the models was the historical oil production rate(HOPR in m^(3) per day)recorded from the ZH86 reservoir block.Models were developed using MATLAB R2021a and trained with 25 models in three replicate conditions(2,4 and 6),each at 1000 epochs.A comparative analysis indicated that,for all 25 models,the ANN outperformed the NRS-ANN in terms of processing speed and prediction performance.ANN models achieved an average of R^(2) and MAE of 0.8433 and 8.0964 m^(3)/day values,respectively,while NRS-ANN hybrid models achieved an average of R^(2) and MAE of 0.7828 and 8.2484 m^(3)/day values,respectively.In addition,ANN models achieved a processing speed of 49 epochs/sec,32 epochs/sec,and 24 epochs/sec after 2,4,and 6 replicates,respectively.Whereas the NRS-ANN hybrid models achieved lower average processing speeds of 45 epochs/sec,23 epochs/sec and 20 epochs/sec.In addition,the ANN optimal model outperforms the NRS-ANN model in terms of both processing speed and accuracy.The ANN optimal model achieved a speed of 336.44 epochs/sec,compared to the NRS-ANN hybrid optimal model,which achieved a speed of 52.16 epochs/sec.The ANN optimal model achieved lower RMSE and MAE values of 7.9291 m^(3)/day and 5.3855 m^(3)/day in the validation dataset compared with the hybrid ANS optimal model,which achieved 13.6821 m^(3)/day and 9.2047 m^(3)/day,respectively.The study also showed that the ANN optimal model consistently achieved higher R^(2) values:0.9472,0.9284 and 0.9316 in the training,test and validation data sets.Whereas the NRS-ANN hybrid optimal yielded lower R^(2) values of 0.8030,0.8622 and 0.7776 for the training,testing and validation datasets.The study showed that ANN models are a more effective and reliable tool,as they balance both processing speed and accuracy in estimating the oil production rate of the ZH86 reservoir block under the waterflooding recovery method.
