Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency and percentage water balance error were used as performance measures. The particle swarm optimization (PSO) method was used to calibrate the rainfall-runoff models. Different lengths of data series ranging from one year to ten years, randomly sampled, were used to study the impact of calibration data series length. Fifty-five relatively unimpaired catchments located all over Australia with daily precipitation, potential evapotranspiration, and streamflow data were tested to obtain more general conclusions. The results show that longer calibration data series do not necessarily result in better model performance. In general, eight years of data are sufficient to obtain steady estimates of model performance and parameters for the SIMHYD model. It is also shown that most humid catchments require fewer calibration data to obtain a good performance and stable parameter values. The model performs better in humid and semi-humid catchments than in arid catchments. Our results may have useful and interesting implications for the efficiency of using limited observation data for hydrological model calibration in different climates.展开更多

Little work has been conducted tostudy the impacts of realistic versus global ranges as well as model complexities on the calibrationand uncertainty estimates. The primary purpose of this paper is to investigate these impacts byemploying Bayesian Stochastic Inversion (BSI) to the Chameleon Surface Model (CHASM). The CHASM wasdesigned to explore the general aspects of land-surface energy balance representation within acommon modeling framework that can be run from a simple energy balance formulation to a complexmosaic type structure. The BSI is an uncertainty estimation technique based on Bayes theorem,importance sampling, and very fast simulated annealing. The model forcing data and surface flux datawere collected at seven sites representing a wide range of climate and vegetation conditions. Foreach site, four experiments were performed with simple and complex CHASM formulations as well asrealistic and global parameter ranges. Twenty eight experiments were conducted and 50 000 parametersets were used for each run. The results show that the use of global and realistic ranges givessimilar simulations for both modes for most sites, but the global ranges tend to produce someunreasonable optimal parameter values. Comparison of simple and complex modes shows that the simplemode has more parameters with unreasonable optimal values. Use of parameter ranges and modelcomplexities have significant impacts on frequency distribution of parameters, marginal posteriorprobability density functions, and estimates of uncertainty of simulated sensible and latent heatfluxes. Comparison between model complexity and parameter ranges shows that the former has moresignificant impacts on parameter and uncertainty estimations.展开更多

Commonly used parameter estimation techniques based on least-squares minimization of the model-observation discrepancies assume that the discrepancies are quantified with the L<sup>2</sup>-norm applied to a discrepancy function. While techniques based on such an assumption work well for many applications, other applications are better suited for least-squared minimization approaches that are based on other norm or inner-product induced topologies. Motivated by an application in the material sciences, the new alternative least-squares approach is defined and an insightful analytical comparison with a baseline least-squares approach is provided.展开更多

Determination of the electron beam parameters for MC simulation is often estimated using trial and error methods. However, this can be tedious and time-consuming. This paper aims to validate MC simulated data using 1D gamma analysis for 6MV photon beam to obtain the optimal parameters. BEAMnrc codes were used to generate phase space files for conventional field sizes 10 × 10 cm^2, 6 × 6 cm^2, 4 × 4 cm^2 and small field sizes 2 ×2 cm^2, 1 ×1 cm^2, 0.5 ×0.5 cm^2. For conventional field sizes, simulations were benchmarked against Golden Beam Data (GBD). Simulations for small fields were benchmarked against measurements obtained using EDGE Detector and PTW Diode SRS detector in a Sun Nuclear 3D scanner. Dose profiles in water were calculated using DOSXYZnrc codes. Initial reference parameters were approximated using average percentage dose differences of different mean electron energy and electron beam radial distribution (Full Width at Half Maximum, FWHM). Subsequently, the optimal parameters were validated by 1D gamma analysis using varying gamma criteria from γ3%%/0.3mm to γ2.0%/2.0mm for depth dose and lateral dose profiles. Comparisons were performed along the central region at depth dose 1.6 cm . Optimal parameters were found to be unique for small field sizes. As field size decreases, smaller FWHM were required to match measured data. By using 95% passing rate, a generic set of optimal electron beam parameters in a MC model for all field sizes could be accurately determined. Our findings provide MC users a set of optimal parameters with sufficient accuracy for MC simulation work.展开更多

Using National Meteorological Center (NMC) Reanalysis 6-hourly surface flux data and National Center for Environmental Prediction/Department of Energy (NCEP/DOE) Atmospheric Model Intercomparison Project II (AMIP-II) 6-hourly Reanalysis Gaussian Grid data, two experiments (I and II) were designed to investigate the impact of the percentages of sand and clay in the shallow soil in CoLM on its ability to simulate shallow soil moisture. A third experiment (III) was designed to study the shallow soil moisture and latent heat flux simultaneously. In all the three experiments, after the optimization stage, the percentages of sand and clay of the shallow soil were used to predict the shallow soil moisture in the following month. The results show that the optimal parameters can enable CoLM to better simulate shallow soil moisture, with the simulation results of CoLM after the double-parameter optimal ex- periment being better than the single-parameter optimal experiment in the optimization slot. Purthermore, the optimal parameters were able to significantly improve the prediction results of CoLM at the prediction stage. In addition, whether or not the atmospheric forcing and observational data are accurate can seriously affect the results of optimization, and the more accurate the data are, the more significant the results of optimization may be.展开更多

An optimal design model of structural parameters for shield cutterhead is formulated,based on the complex engineering technical requirements. In the model, as the objective function of the model is a composite function of the strength and stiffness, the response surface method is applied to formulate the approximate function of objective function in order to reduce the solution scale of optimal problem. A multi-objective genetic algorithm is used to solve the cutterhead structure design problem and the change rule of the stress-strain with various structural parameters as well as their optimal values were researched under specific geological conditions. The results show that compared with original cutterhead structure scheme, the obtained optimal scheme of the cutterhead structure can greatly improve the strength and stiffness of the cutterhead, which can be seen from the reduction of its maximum equivalent stress by 21.2%, that of its maximum deformation by 0.75%, and that of its mass by 1.04%.展开更多

To address this problem, the capture of CNOP, when the "on-off" switches are included in models, is treated as non-smooth optimization in this study, and the genetic algorithm (GA) is introduced. After detailed algorithm procedures are formulated using an idealized model with parameterization "on-off" switches in the forcing term, the impacts of "on-off" switches on the capture of CNOP are analyzed, and three numerical experiments are conducted to check the effectiveness of GA in capturing CNOP and to analyze the impacts of different initial populations on the optimization result. The result shows that GA is competent for the capture of CNOP in the context of the idealized model with parameterization ‘on-off’ switches in this study. Finally, the advantages and disadvantages of GA in capturing CNOP are analyzed in detail.展开更多

文摘Purpose-The indoor vibration compaction test(IVCT)was a key step in controlling the compaction quality for high-speed railway graded aggregate(HRGA),which currently had a research gap on the assessment indicators and compaction parameters.Design/methodology/approach-To address these issues,a novel multi-indicator IVCT method was proposed,including physical indicator dry density(ρd)and mechanical indicators dynamic stiffness(Krb)and bearing capacity coefficient(K20).Then,a series of IVCTs on HRGA under different compaction parameters were conducted with an improved vibration compactor,which could monitor the physical-mechanical indicators in real-time.Finally,the optimal vibration compaction parameters,including the moisture content(ω),the diameter-to-maximum particle size ratio(Rd),the thickness-to-maximum particle size ratio(Rh),the vibration frequency(f),the vibration mass(Mc)and the eccentric distance(re),were determined based on the evolution characteristics for the physical-mechanical indicators during compaction.Findings-All results indicated that theρd gradually increased and then stabilized,and the Krb initially increased and then decreased.Moreover,the inflection time of the Krb was present as the optimal compaction time(Tlp)during compaction.Additionally,optimal compaction was achieved whenωwas the water-holding content after mud pumping,Rd was 3.4,Rh was 3.5,f was the resonance frequency,and the ratio between the excitation force and the Mc was 1.8.Originality/value-The findings of this paper were significant for the quality control of HRGA compaction.

文摘This work proposes an optimization method for gas storage operation parameters under multi-factor coupled constraints to improve the peak-shaving capacity of gas storage reservoirs while ensuring operational safety.Previous research primarily focused on integrating reservoir,wellbore,and surface facility constraints,often resulting in broad constraint ranges and slow model convergence.To solve this problem,the present study introduces additional constraints on maximum withdrawal rates by combining binomial deliverability equations with material balance equations for closed gas reservoirs,while considering extreme peak-shaving demands.This approach effectively narrows the constraint range.Subsequently,a collaborative optimization model with maximum gas production as the objective function is established,and the model employs a joint solution strategy combining genetic algorithms and numerical simulation techniques.Finally,this methodology was applied to optimize operational parameters for Gas Storage T.The results demonstrate:(1)The convergence of the model was achieved after 6 iterations,which significantly improved the convergence speed of the model;(2)The maximum working gas volume reached 11.605×10^(8) m^(3),which increased by 13.78%compared with the traditional optimization method;(3)This method greatly improves the operation safety and the ultimate peak load balancing capability.The research provides important technical support for the intelligent decision of injection and production parameters of gas storage and improving peak load balancing ability.

文摘The method for optimizing the hydraulic fracturing parameters of the cube development infill well pad was proposed,aiming at the well pattern characteristic of“multi-layer and multi-period”of the infill wells in Sichuan Basin.The fracture propagation and inter-well interference model were established based on the evolution of 4D in-situ stress,and the evolution characteristics of stress and the mechanism of interference between wells were analyzed.The research shows that the increase in horizontal stress difference and the existence of natural fractures/faults are the main reasons for inter-well interference.Inter-well interference is likely to occur near the fracture zones and between the infill wells and parent wells that have been in production for a long time.When communication channels are formed between the infill wells and parent wells,it can increase the productivity of parent wells in the short term.However,it will have a delayed negative impact on the long-term sustained production of both infill wells and parent wells.The change trend of in-situ stress caused by parent well production is basically consistent with the decline trend of pore pressure.The lateral disturbance range of in-situ stress is initially the same as the fracture length and reaches 1.5 to 1.6 times that length after 2.5 years.The key to avoiding inter-well interference is to optimize the fracturing parameters.By adopting the M-shaped well pattern,the optimal well spacing for the infill wells is 300 m,the cluster spacing is 10 m,and the liquid volume per stage is 1800 m^(3).

文摘To investigate the influence of different longitudinal constraint systems on the longitudinal displacement at the girder ends of a three-tower suspension bridge,this study takes the Cangrong Xunjiang Bridge as an engineering case for finite element analysis.This bridge employs an unprecedented tower-girder constraintmethod,with all vertical supports placed at the transition piers at both ends.This paper aims to study the characteristics of longitudinal displacement control at the girder ends under this novel structure,relying on finite element(FE)analysis.Initially,based on the Weigh In Motion(WIM)data,a random vehicle load model is generated and applied to the finite elementmodel.Several longitudinal constraint systems are proposed,and their effects on the structural response of the bridge are compared.The most reasonable system,balancing girder-end displacement and transitional pier stress,is selected.Subsequently,the study examines the impact of different viscous damper parameters on key structural response indicators,including cumulative longitudinal displacement at the girder ends,maximum longitudinal displacement at the girder ends,cumulative longitudinal displacement at the pier tops,maximum longitudinal displacement at the pier tops,longitudinal acceleration at the pier tops,and maximum bending moment at the pier bottoms.Finally,the coefficient of variation(CV)-TOPSIS method is used to optimize the viscous damper parameters for multiple objectives.The results show that adding viscous dampers at the side towers,in addition to the existing longitudinal limit bearings at the central tower,can most effectively reduce the response of structural indicators.The changes in these indicators are not entirely consistent with variations in damping coefficient and velocity exponent.The damper parameters significantly influence cumulative longitudinal displacement at the girder ends,cumulative longitudinal displacement at the pier tops,and maximum bending moments at the pier bottoms.The optimal damper parameters are found to be a damping coefficient of 5000 kN/(m/s)0.2 and a velocity exponent of 0.2.

文摘In this study,a novel synergistic swing energy-regenerative hybrid system(SSEHS)for excavators with a large inertia slewing platform is constructed.With the SSEHS,the pressure boosting and output energy synergy of multiple energy sources can be realized,while the swing braking energy can be recovered and used by means of hydraulic energy.Additionally,considering the system constraints and comprehensive optimization conditions of energy efficiency and dynamic characteristics,an improved multi-objective particle swarm optimization(IMOPSO)combined with an adaptive grid is proposed for parameter optimization of the SSEHS.Meanwhile,a parameter rule-based control strategy is designed,which can switch to a reasonable working mode according to the real-time state.Finally,a physical prototype of a 50-t excavator and its AMESim model is established.The semi-simulation and semi-experiment results demonstrate that compared with a conventional swing system,energy consumption under the 90°rotation condition could be reduced by about 51.4%in the SSEHS before parameter optimization,while the energy-saving efficiency is improved by another 13.2%after parameter optimization.This confirms the effectiveness of the SSEHS and the IMOPSO parameter optimization method proposed in this paper.The IMOPSO algorithm is universal and can be used for parameter matching and optimization of hybrid power systems.

文摘In this paper, we rewrote the equation of algebraic curve segmentswith the geometric informationonboth ends. The optimal or nearly optimal rationalparametric equation is determinedbythe principle that parametricspeedsat both endsareequal. Comparing withotherliteratures, the methodofthis paper has advantage in efficiency andiseasy to realize. The equation of optimal rational parameterization can be obtained directly by the information of both ends. Large numbers ofexperimental data show that our method hasbeen given withmore self-adaptability and accuracy than that ofotherliteratures, and if the parametricspeedat any end reaches its maximum or minimum value, the parameterization is optimal; otherwise itis close tooptimal rational parameterization.

文摘In order to improve the strength and stiffness of shield cutterhead, the method of fuzzy mathematics theory in combination with the finite element analysis is adopted. An optimal design model of structural parameters for shield cutterhead is formulated,based on the complex engineering technical requirements. In the model, as the objective function of the model is a composite function of the strength and stiffness, the response surface method is applied to formulate the approximate function of objective function in order to reduce the solution scale of optimal problem. A multi-objective genetic algorithm is used to solve the cutterhead structure design problem and the change rule of the stress-strain with various structural parameters as well as their optimal values were researched under specific geological conditions. The results show that compared with original cutterhead structure scheme, the obtained optimal scheme of the cutterhead structure can greatly improve the strength and stiffness of the cutterhead, which can be seen from the reduction of its maximum equivalent stress by 21.2%, that of its maximum deformation by 0.75%, and that of its mass by 1.04%.
基金Application investigation of conditional nonlinear optimal perturbation in typhoon adaptive observation (40830955)
文摘In the typhoon adaptive observation based on conditional nonlinear optimal perturbation (CNOP), the ‘on-off’ switch caused by moist physical parameterization in prediction models prevents the conventional adjoint method from providing correct gradient during the optimization process. To address this problem, the capture of CNOP, when the "on-off" switches are included in models, is treated as non-smooth optimization in this study, and the genetic algorithm (GA) is introduced. After detailed algorithm procedures are formulated using an idealized model with parameterization "on-off" switches in the forcing term, the impacts of "on-off" switches on the capture of CNOP are analyzed, and three numerical experiments are conducted to check the effectiveness of GA in capturing CNOP and to analyze the impacts of different initial populations on the optimization result. The result shows that GA is competent for the capture of CNOP in the context of the idealized model with parameterization ‘on-off’ switches in this study. Finally, the advantages and disadvantages of GA in capturing CNOP are analyzed in detail.
