The batch processing machine can process a number of jobs simultaneously as long as the total size of these jobs being processed does not exceed the machine capacity. The processing time of a batch is given by the longest processing time of any job in the batch. Each job becomes available at its arrival time, which is unknown in advance, and its processing time becomes known upon its arrival. The paper deals with two variants: the case only with two distinct arrival times and the general case. For the first case, an on-line algorithm with competitive ratio 119/44 is given. For the latter one, a simple algorithm with competitive ratio 3 is given. For both variants the better ratios can be obtained if the problem satisfies proportional assumption.展开更多

To enhance DE, it is necessary to handle discrete design variables. In this paper, a discrete differential evolution (DDE) algorithm is proposed to handle discrete design variables The proposed DDE is based on the DE/l/rand/bin method. In the proposed DDE, the mutation ratio is regarded as the exchange probability, and thus, no modifications of DE/l/rand/bin are required. In addition, in order to maintain diversity through the search process, we initialize all search points. By introducing the initialization of all search points, global or quasi-optimum solution can be found. We validate the proposed DDE by applying it to several benchmark problems.展开更多

The function representing the mean-square deviation of the prescribed and synthesized power DPs and containing the additional term with squared norm of the current or field in the antenna aperture is considered as the criterion of optimization. Freedom to choose the phase DP is used to improve the proximity of the prescribed and synthesized DPs. In such formulation, the classes of non-linear problems, for which the non-uniqueness of solutions, their branching and bifurcation are characteristic, arise. The properties of solutions depend on the electric size of radiating system and prescribed power DP. From a practical point of view, the existence of different solutions creating the same or similar DPs, gives the opportunity to choose the solution that has a simpler implementation. The synthesis problems for plane radiating systems and plane arrays are considered.展开更多

As it was shown that this hypothesis excludes non-linear terms in the expression for forces which are responsible for energy exchange between different degrees of freedom of a many-body system. An oscillator passing a potential barrier is considered as an example which demonstrated this fact. It was found that the oscillator can pass the barrier even if kinetic energy of its mass center is below the potential barrier’s height due to non-linear terms. This effect is lost because of holonomic constraints hypothesis. We also explained how one can derive a system’s motion equation without the use of holonomic constraints hypothesis. This equation can be used to describe non-linear irreversible processes within the frames of Newton’s laws.展开更多

文摘Cubic-shaped magnetic particles subjected to a dimensionless uniaxial anisotropy(Q=0.1)aligned with one of the crystallographic axes provide an ideal system for investigating magnetic equilibrium states.In this system,three fundamental magnetization configurations are identified:(i)the flower state,(ii)the twisted flower state,and(iii)the vortex state.This problem corresponds to standard problem No.3 proposed by the NIST Micromagnetics Modeling Group,widely adopted as a benchmark for validating computational micromagnetics methods.In this work,we approach the problem using a computational method based on direct dipolar interactions,in contrast to conventional techniques that typically compute the demagnetizing field via finite difference-based fast Fourier transform(FFT)methods,tensor grid approaches,or finite element formulations.Our results are compared with established literature data,focusing on the dimensionless parameterλ=L/l_(ex),where L is the cube edge length and l_(ex)is the exchange length of the material.To analyze equilibrium state transitions,we systematically varied the size L as a function of the simulation cell number N and intercellular spacing a,determining the criticalλvalue associated with configuration changes.Our simulations reveal that the transition between the twisted flower and vortex states occurs atλ≈8.45,consistent with values reported in the literature,validating our code(Grupo de Física da Matéeria Condensada-UFJF),and shows that this standard problem can be resolved using only interaction dipolar of a direct way without the need for sophisticated additional calculations.
文摘The proliferation of carrier aircraft and the integration of unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs)on aircraft carriers present new challenges to the automation of launch and recovery operations.This paper investigates a collaborative scheduling problem inherent to the operational processes of carrier aircraft,where launch and recovery tasks are conducted concurrently on the flight deck.The objective is to minimize the cumulative weighted waiting time in the air for recovering aircraft and the cumulative weighted delay time for launching aircraft.To tackle this challenge,a multiple population self-adaptive differential evolution(MPSADE)algorithm is proposed.This method features a self-adaptive parameter updating mechanism that is contingent upon population diversity,an asynchronous updating scheme,an individual migration operator,and a global crossover mechanism.Additionally,comprehensive experiments are conducted to validate the effectiveness of the proposed model and algorithm.Ultimately,a comparative analysis with existing operation modes confirms the enhanced efficiency of the collaborative operation mode.

文摘In this paper,we study the nonlinear Riemann boundary value problem with square roots that is represented by a Cauchy-type integral with kernel density in variable exponent Lebesgue spaces.We discuss the odd-order zero-points distribution of the solutions and separate the single valued analytic branch of the solutions with square roots,then convert the problem to a Riemann boundary value problem in variable exponent Lebesgue spaces and discuss the singularity of solutions at individual zeros belonging to curve.We consider two types of cases those where the coefficient is Hölder and those where it is piecewise Hölder.Then we solve the Hilbert boundary value problem with square roots in variable exponent Lebesgue spaces.By discussing the distribution of the odd-order zero-points for solutions and the method of symmetric extension,we convert the Hilbert problem to a Riemann boundary value problem.The equivalence of the transformation is discussed.Finally,we get the solvable conditions and the direct expressions of the solutions in variable exponent Lebesgue spaces.

文摘The airplane refueling problem can be stated as follows.We are given n airplanes which can refuel one another during the flight.Each airplane has a reservoir volume wj(liters)and a consumption rate pj(liters per kilometer).As soon as one airplane runs out of fuel,it is dropping out of the flight.The problem asks for finding a refueling scheme such that the last plane in the air reach a maximal distance.An equivalent version is the n-vehicle exploration problem.The computational complexity of this non-linear combinatorial optimization problem is open so far.This paper employs the neighborhood exchange method of single-machine scheduling to study the precedence relations of jobs,so as to improve the necessary and sufficiency conditions of optimal solutions,and establish an efficient heuristic algorithm which is a generalization of several existing special algorithms.

文摘Convex feasibility problems are widely used in image reconstruction, sparse signal recovery, and other areas. This paper is devoted to considering a class of convex feasibility problem arising from sparse signal recovery. We first derive the projection formulas for a vector onto the feasible sets. The centralized circumcentered-reflection method is designed to solve the convex feasibility problem. Some numerical experiments demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, showing superior performance compared to conventional alternating projection methods.
