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.

文摘Deployable Composite Thin-Walled Structures(DCTWS)are widely used in space applications due to their ability to compactly fold and self-deploy in orbit,enabled by cutouts.Cutout design is crucial for balancing structural rigidity and flexibility,ensuring material integrity during large deformations,and providing adequate load-bearing capacity and stability once deployed.Most research has focused on optimizing cutout size and shape,while topology optimization offers a broader design space.However,the anisotropic properties of woven composite laminates,complex failure criteria,and multi-performance optimization needs have limited the exploration of topology optimization in this field.This work derives the sensitivities of bending stiffness,critical buckling load,and the failure index of woven composite materials with respect to element density,and formulates both single-objective and multi-objective topology optimization models using a linear weighted aggregation approach.The developed method was integrated with the commercial finite element software ABAQUS via a Python script,allowing efficient application to cutout design in various DCTWS configurations to maximize bending stiffness and critical buckling load under material failure constraints.Optimization of a classical tubular hinge resulted in improvements of 107.7%in bending stiffness and 420.5%in critical buckling load compared to level-set topology optimization results reported in the literature,validating the effectiveness of the approach.To facilitate future research and encourage the broader adoption of topology optimization techniques in DCTWS design,the source code for this work is made publicly available via a Git Hub link:https://github.com/jinhao-ok1/Topo-for-DCTWS.git.

文摘The performance of hematite(α-Fe_(2)O_(3))photoanodes for photoelectrochemical(PEC)water splitting has been limited to around 2-5 mA cm^(-2)under standard conditions due to their short hole diffusion length and sluggish oxygen evolution reaction kinetics.This work overcomes those challenges through a synergistic strategy that co-designs the hematite architecture and the surface reaction pathway.We introduce a textured and hierarchically porous Ti-doped Fe_(2)O_(3)(tp-Fe_(2)O_(3))photoanode,synthesized via multi-cycle growth and flame annealing method.This unique architecture features a high texture(110),enlarged surface area,and hierarchically porous structure,which enable significantly enhanced bulk charge transport and interfacial charge transfer compared to typical nanorod Ti-doped Fe_(2)O_(3)(nr-Fe_(2)O_(3)).As a result,the tp-Fe_(2)O_(3)photoanode achieves a photocurrent density of 3.1 mA cm^(-2)at 1.23 V vs.RHE with exceptional stability over 105 h,notably without any co-catalyst.By replacing the OER with the hydrazine oxidation reaction,the photocurrent further reaches a record-high level of 7.1 mA cm^(-2)at 1.23 V_(RHE).Finally,when we integrate the tp-Fe_(2)O_(3)with a commercial Si solar cell,it achieves a solar-to-hydrogen efficiency of 8.7%-the highest reported value for any Fe_(2)O_(3)-based PVtandem system.This work provides critical insights into rational Fe_(2)O_(3)photoanode design and highlights the potential of hydrazine as an efficient alternative anodic reaction,enabling waste valorization.
文摘Optimization algorithms are crucial for solving NP-hard problems in engineering and computational sciences.Metaheuristic algorithms,in particular,have proven highly effective in complex optimization scenarios characterized by high dimensionality and intricate variable relationships.The Mountain Gazelle Optimizer(MGO)is notably effective but struggles to balance local search refinement and global space exploration,often leading to premature convergence and entrapment in local optima.This paper presents the Improved MGO(IMGO),which integrates three synergistic enhancements:dynamic chaos mapping using piecewise chaotic sequences to boost explo-ration diversity;Opposition-Based Learning(OBL)with adaptive,diversity-driven activation to speed up convergence;and structural refinements to the position update mechanisms to enhance exploitation.The IMGO underwent a comprehensive evaluation using 52 standardised benchmark functions and seven engineering optimization problems.Benchmark evaluations showed that IMGO achieved the highest rank in best solution quality for 31 functions,the highest rank in mean performance for 18 functions,and the highest rank in worst-case performance for 14 functions among 11 competing algorithms.Statistical validation using Wilcoxon signed-rank tests confirmed that IMGO outperformed individual competitors across 16 to 50 functions,depending on the algorithm.At the same time,Friedman ranking analysis placed IMGO with an average rank of 4.15,compared to the baseline MGO’s 4.38,establishing the best overall performance.The evaluation of engineering problems revealed consistent improvements,including an optimal cost of 1.6896 for the welded beam design vs.MGO’s 1.7249,a minimum cost of 5885.33 for the pressure vessel design vs.MGO’s 6300,and a minimum weight of 2964.52 kg for the speed reducer design vs.MGO’s 2990.00 kg.Ablation studies identified OBL as the strongest individual contributor,whereas complete integration achieved superior performance through synergistic interactions among components.Computational complexity analysis established an O(T×N×5×f(P))time complexity,representing a 1.25×increase in fitness evaluation relative to the baseline MGO,validating the favorable accuracy-efficiency trade-offs for practical optimization applications.
文摘Metaheuristic optimization algorithms continue to be essential for solving complex real-world problems,yet existingmethods often struggle with balancing exploration and exploitation across diverse problem landscapes.This paper proposes a novel nature-inspired metaheuristic optimization algorithm named the Painted Wolf Optimization(PWO)algorithm.The main inspiration for the PWO algorithm is the group behavior and hunting strategy of painted wolves,also known as African wild dogs in the wild,particularly their unique consensus-based voting rally mechanism,a behavior fundamentally distinct fromthe social dynamics of grey wolves.In this innovative process,pack members explore different areas to find prey;then,they hold a pre-hunting voting rally based on the alpha member to determine who will begin the hunt and attack the prey.The efficiency of the proposed PWO algorithm is evaluated by a comparison study with other well-known optimization algorithms on 33 test functions,including the Congress on Evolutionary Computation(CEC)2017 suite and different real-world engineering design cases.Furthermore,the algorithm’s performance is further tested across a spectrum of optimization problems with extensive unknown search spaces.This includes its application within the field of cybersecurity,specifically in the context of training a machine learning-based intrusion detection system(ML-IDS),achieving an accuracy of 0.90 and an F-measure of 0.9290.Statistical analyses using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test(all p<0.05)indicate that the PWO algorithm outperforms existing state-of-the-art algorithms,providing superior solutions in diverse and unpredictable optimization landscapes.This demonstrates its potential as a robust method for tackling complex optimization problems in various fields.The source code for thePWOalgorithmis publicly available at https://github.com/saeidsheikhi/Painted-Wolf-Optimization.

文摘As an important resource in data link,time slots should be strategically allocated to enhance transmission efficiency and resist eavesdropping,especially considering the tremendous increase in the number of nodes and diverse communication needs.It is crucial to design control sequences with robust randomness and conflict-freeness to properly address differentiated access control in data link.In this paper,we propose a hierarchical access control scheme based on control sequences to achieve high utilization of time slots and differentiated access control.A theoretical bound of the hierarchical control sequence set is derived to characterize the constraints on the parameters of the sequence set.Moreover,two classes of optimal hierarchical control sequence sets satisfying the theoretical bound are constructed,both of which enable the scheme to achieve maximum utilization of time slots.Compared with the fixed time slot allocation scheme,our scheme reduces the symbol error rate by up to 9%,which indicates a significant improvement in anti-interference and eavesdropping capabilities.

文摘Using platform-target matching deviation,anti-collision difficulty,trajectory complexity,and total drilling footage as objective functions,and comprehensively considering constraints such as platform layout area,drilling extension limits,underground target distribution and trajectory collision risks,a model of platform location-wellbore trajectory collaborative optimization for a complex-structure well factory is developed.A hybrid heuristic algorithm is proposed by combining an improved sparrow search algorithm(ISSA)for optimizing platform parameters in the outer layer and a directed artificial bee colony algorithm(DABC)for optimizing trajectory parameters in the inner layer.The alternating iteration of ISSA-DABC facilitates the resolution of the collaborative optimization problem.The ISSA-DABC provides an effective solution to the platform-trajectory collaborative optimization problem for complex-structure well factories and overcomes the tendency of the traditional platform-trajectory stepwise optimization workflow to become trapped in local optima and yield inconsistent designs.The ISSA-DABC has a strong global search capability,fast convergence and good robustness,and can simultaneously satisfy multiple engineering constraints on drilling footage,trajectory complexity and collision risk,and enables automated,workflow-wide generation of constraint-compliant,near-globally optimal platform-trajectory configurations.Field applications further demonstrate that ISSA-DABC significantly reduces the objective function value and collision risk,yielding more rational platform layouts and well factory design parameters.
文摘Optimizing convolutional neural networks(CNNs)for IoT attack detection remains a critical yet challenging task due to the need to balance multiple performance metrics beyond mere accuracy.This study proposes a unified and flexible optimization framework that leverages metaheuristic algorithms to automatically optimize CNN configurations for IoT attack detection.Unlike conventional single-objective approaches,the proposed method formulates a global multi-objective fitness function that integrates accuracy,precision,recall,and model size(speed/model complexity penalty)with adjustable weights.This design enables both single-objective and weightedsum multi-objective optimization,allowing adaptive selection of optimal CNN configurations for diverse deployment requirements.Two representativemetaheuristic algorithms,GeneticAlgorithm(GA)and Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO),are employed to optimize CNNhyperparameters and structure.At each generation/iteration,the best configuration is selected as themost balanced solution across optimization objectives,i.e.,the one achieving themaximum value of the global objective function.Experimental validation on two benchmark datasets,Edge-IIoT and CIC-IoT2023,demonstrates that the proposed GA-and PSO-based models significantly enhance detection accuracy(94.8%–98.3%)and generalization compared with manually tuned CNN configurations,while maintaining compact architectures.The results confirm that the multi-objective framework effectively balances predictive performance and computational efficiency.This work establishes a generalizable and adaptive optimization strategy for deep learning-based IoT attack detection and provides a foundation for future hybrid metaheuristic extensions in broader IoT security applications.
文摘To enhance the accuracy of path planning of unmanned surface vehicles(USVs),the particle swarm optimization algorithm(PSO)is improved based on species migration strategies observed in ecology.By incorporating the concept of particle sight distance,an improved algorithm,called SD-IPSO,is proposed for the real-time autonomous navigation of USVs in marine environments.The algorithm refines the individual behavior pattern of particles in the population,effectively improving both local and global search capabilities while avoiding premature convergence.The effectiveness of the algorithm is validated using standard test functions from CEC-2017 function library,assessing it from multiple dimensions.Sensitivity analysis is conducted on key parameters in the algorithm,including particle sight distance and population size.Results indicate that compared with PSO,SD-IPSO demonstrates significant advantages in optimization accuracy and convergence speed.The application of SD-IPSO in path planning is further investigated through a 14-point traveling salesman problem(TSP)example and navigation autonomous tests of USVs in marine environments.Findings demonstrate that the proposed algorithm exhibits superior optimization capabilities and can effectively address the path planning challenges of USVs.
