文摘As vehicular networks grow increasingly complex due to high node mobility and dynamic traffic conditions,efficient clustering mechanisms are vital to ensure stable and scalable communication.Recent studies have emphasized the need for adaptive clustering strategies to improve performance in Intelligent Transportation Systems(ITS).This paper presents the Grasshopper Optimization Algorithm for Vehicular Network Clustering(GOAVNET)algorithm,an innovative approach to optimal vehicular clustering in Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks(VANETs),leveraging the Grasshopper Optimization Algorithm(GOA)to address the critical challenges of traffic congestion and communication inefficiencies in Intelligent Transportation Systems(ITS).The proposed GOA-VNET employs an iterative and interactive optimization mechanism to dynamically adjust node positions and cluster configurations,ensuring robust adaptability to varying vehicular densities and transmission ranges.Key features of GOA-VNET include the utilization of attraction zone,repulsion zone,and comfort zone parameters,which collectively enhance clustering efficiency and minimize congestion within Regions of Interest(ROI).By managing cluster configurations and node densities effectively,GOA-VNET ensures balanced load distribution and seamless data transmission,even in scenarios with high vehicular densities and varying transmission ranges.Comparative evaluations against the Whale Optimization Algorithm(WOA)and Grey Wolf Optimization(GWO)demonstrate that GOA-VNET consistently outperforms these methods by achieving superior clustering efficiency,reducing the number of clusters by up to 10%in high-density scenarios,and improving data transmission reliability.Simulation results reveal that under a 100-600 m transmission range,GOA-VNET achieves an average reduction of 8%-15%in the number of clusters and maintains a 5%-10%improvement in packet delivery ratio(PDR)compared to baseline algorithms.Additionally,the algorithm incorporates a heat transfer-inspired load-balancing mechanism,ensuring equitable distribution of nodes among cluster leaders(CLs)and maintaining a stable network environment.These results validate GOA-VNET as a reliable and scalable solution for VANETs,with significant potential to support next-generation ITS.Future research could further enhance the algorithm by integrating multi-objective optimization techniques and exploring broader applications in complex traffic scenarios.

文摘This work focuses on maximizing the minimum user’s security energy efficiency(SEE)in an unmanned aerial vehicle-mounted reconfigurable intelligent surface(UAV-RIS)enhanced short-packet communication(SPC)system.The base station(BS)provides short packet services to ground users using the non-orthogonal multiple access(NOMA)protocol through UAV-RIS,while preventing eavesdropper attacks.To optimize SEE,a joint optimization is performed concerning power allocation,UAV position,decoding order,and RIS phase shifts.An iterative algorithm based on block coordinate descent is proposed for mixed-integer non-convex SEE optimization problem.The original problem is decomposed into three sub-problems,solved alternately using successive convex approximation(SCA),quadratic transformation,penalty function,and semi-definite programming(SDP).Simulation results demonstrate the performance of the UAV-RIS-enhanced short-packet system under different parameters and verify the algorithm’s convergence.Compared to benchmark schemes such as orthogonal multiple access,long packet communication,and sum SEE,the proposed UAV-RIS-enhanced short-packet scheme achieves the higher minimum user’s SEE.
文摘Backscatter communication(BC)is con-sidered a key technology in self-sustainable commu-nications,and the unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)as a data collector can improve the efficiency of data col-lection.We consider a UAV-aided BC system,where the power beacons(PBs)are deployed as dedicated radio frequency(RF)sources to supply power for backscatter devices(BDs).After harvesting enough energy,the BDs transmit data to the UAV.We use stochastic geometry to model the large-scale BC sys-tem.Specifically,the PBs are modeled as a type II Mat´ern hard-core point process(MHCPP II)and the BDs are modeled as a homogeneous Poisson point process(HPPP).Firstly,the BDs’activation proba-bility and average coverage probability are derived.Then,to maximize the energy efficiency(EE),we opti-mize the RF power of the PBs under different PB den-sities.Furthermore,we compare the coverage proba-bility and EE performance of our system with a bench-mark scheme,in which the distribution of PBs is mod-eled as a HPPP.Simulation results show that the PBs modeled as MHCPP II has better performance,and we found that the higher the density of PBs,the smaller the RF power required,and the EE is also higher.

文摘In this study,high-performance D18:L8-BO bulk heterojunction organic solar cells(OSCs)were prepared by employing a hot-solution strategy to optimize the active layer morphology during the film solidification process.By heating the chloroform(CF)solution to 70℃(slightly above the boiling point of CF,~61.2℃),an optimal balance between solvent evaporation and molecular self-assembly was achieved,resulting in enhanced crystallinity,favorable π-π stacking,and ideal nanoscale phase separation.These improvements significantly boost the power conversion efficiency from 17.74%(for the device processed at a room temperature of 30℃)to 19.56%.Moreover,the in-situ grazing-incidence wide-angle X-ray scattering technology was utilized to monitor the crystallization and morphology evolution of the active layer,offering real-time insights into molecule self-assembly and phase separation dynamics during active layer solidification.This work not only provides a simple and scalable approach for fabricating high-efficiency OSCs but also offers fundamental insights into the influence of solution temperature on active layer morphology evolution dynamics,paving the way for large-scale industrial production of organic solar cells.

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.
