The algorithm and the numerical implementation are applied to aerodynamic designs. Evolutionary algorithms （EAs） and the Pareto front concept are used to solve practical design problems in industry for its robustness in capturing convex, concave, discrete or discontinuous Pareto fronts of multi-objective optimization problems. However, the process is time-consuming. Therefore, deterministic optimization methods are introduced to capture the Pareto front, and the types of the captured Pareto front are explained. Numerical experiments show that the deterministic optimization method is a good alternative to EAs for capturing any convex and some concave Pareto fronts in multi-criterion aerodynamic optimization problems due to its efficiency.展开更多

Therefore, the beam pattern needs to be optimized. The existing Dolph-Chebyshev weighting method can get the lowest side lobe level under given main lobe width, but for the other non-uniform circular array and nonlinear array, the low side lobe pattern needs to be designed specially. The second order cone programming optimization （SOCP） algorithm proposed in the paper transforms the optimization of the beam pattern into a standard convex optimization problem. Thus there is a paradigm to follow for any array formation, which not only achieves the purpose of Dolph-Chebyshev weighting, but also solves the problem of the increased side lobe when the signal is at end fire direction The simulation proves that the SOCP algorithm can detect the weak target better than the conventional beam forming.展开更多

This is ...In order to take into account the uncertainties linked to the variables in the evaluation of the statistical properties of structural response, a reliability approach with probabilistic aspect was considered. This is called the Probabilistic Transformation Method (PTM). This method is readily applicable when the function between the input and the output of the system is explicit. However, the situation is much more involved when it is necessary to perform the evaluation of implicit function between the input and the output of the system through numerical models. In this work, we propose a technique that combines Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and Probabilistic Transformation Method (PTM) to evaluate the Probability Density Function (PDF) of response where the function between the input and the output of the system is implicit. This technique is based on the numerical simulations of the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and the Probabilistic Transformation Method (PTM) using an interface between Finite Element software and Matlab. Some problems of structures are treated in order to prove the applicability of the proposed technique. Moreover, the obtained results are compared to those obtained by the reference method of Monte Carlo. A second aim of this work is to develop an algorithm of global optimization using the local method SQP, because of its effectiveness and its rapidity of convergence. For this reason, we have combined the method SQP with the Multi start method. This developed algorithm is tested on test functions comparing with other methods such as the method of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). In order to test the applicability of the proposed approach, a structure is optimized under reliability constraints.展开更多

It is known that all statistical distributions can be obtained as distribution by choosing corresponding moment functions. However, Generalized Entropy Optimization Distributions (GEOD) in the form of distributions which are obtained on basis of Shannon measure and supplementary optimization with respect to characterizing moment functions, more exactly represent the given statistical data. For this reason, survival data analysis by GEOD acquires a new significance. In this research, the data of the life table for engine failure data (1980) is examined. The performances of GEOD are established by Chi-Square criteria, Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) criteria and Shannon entropy measure, Kullback-Leibler measure. Comparison of GEOD with each other in the different senses shows that along of these distributions (MinMaxEnt)4 is better in the senses of Shannon measure and of Kullback-Leibler measure. It is showed that, (MinMaxEnt)3 ((MaxMaxEnt)4) is more suitable for statistical data among (MinMaxEnt)m,m=1,2,3,4(MaxMaxEnt)m,m=1,2,3,4. Moreover, (MinMaxEnt)3 is better for statistical data than (MaxMaxEnt)4 in the sense of RMSE criteria. According to obtained distribution (MinMaxEnt)3 (MaxMaxEnt)4 estimator of Probability Density Function?f^?(t), Cumulative Distribution Functio?F^ (t) , Survival Function Ŝ(t) and Hazard Rate ĥ(t) are evaluated and graphically illustrated. The results are acquired by using statistical software MATLAB.展开更多

文摘When signal-to-interference ratio is low, the energy of strong interference leaked from the side lobe of beam pattern will infect the detection of weak target. Therefore, the beam pattern needs to be optimized. The existing Dolph-Chebyshev weighting method can get the lowest side lobe level under given main lobe width, but for the other non-uniform circular array and nonlinear array, the low side lobe pattern needs to be designed specially. The second order cone programming optimization （SOCP） algorithm proposed in the paper transforms the optimization of the beam pattern into a standard convex optimization problem. Thus there is a paradigm to follow for any array formation, which not only achieves the purpose of Dolph-Chebyshev weighting, but also solves the problem of the increased side lobe when the signal is at end fire direction The simulation proves that the SOCP algorithm can detect the weak target better than the conventional beam forming.

文摘This paper mainly studies the problem of using UAVs to provide accurate remote target indication for hypersonic projectiles.Based on the optimal trajectory trends and feedback guidance methods,a new cooperative control algorithm is proposed to optimize trajectories of multi-UAVs for target tracking in approaching stage.Based on UAV kinematics and sensor performance models,optimal trajectory trends of UAVs are analyzed theoretically.Then,feedback guidance methods are proposed under the optimal observation trends of UAVs in the approaching target stage,producing trajectories with far less computational complexity and performance very close to the best-known trajectories.Next,the sufficient condition for the UAV to form the optimal observation configuration by the feedback guidance method is presented,which guarantees that the proposed method can optimize the observation trajectory of the UAV in approaching stage.Finally,the feedback guidance method is numerically simulated.Simulation results demonstrate that the estimation performance of the feedback guidance method is superior to the Lyapunov guidance vector field(LGVF)method and verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.Additionally,compared with the receding horizon optimization(RHO)method,the proposed method has the same optimization ability as the RHO method and better real-time performance.

文摘This paper proposes a novel optimization framework in passive control techniques to reduce noise pollution.The geometries of the structures are represented by Catmull-Clark subdivision surfaces,which are able to build gap-free Computer-Aided Design models and meanwhile tackle the extraordinary points that are commonly encountered in geometricmodelling.The acoustic fields are simulated using the isogeometric boundary elementmethod,and a density-based topology optimization is conducted to optimize distribution of sound-absorbing materials adhered to structural surfaces.The approach enables one to perform acoustic optimization from Computer-Aided Design models directly without needingmeshing and volume parameterization,thereby avoiding the geometric errors and time-consuming preprocessing steps in conventional simulation and optimization methods.The effectiveness of the present method is demonstrated by three dimensional numerical examples.
文摘In order to take into account the uncertainties linked to the variables in the evaluation of the statistical properties of structural response, a reliability approach with probabilistic aspect was considered. This is called the Probabilistic Transformation Method (PTM). This method is readily applicable when the function between the input and the output of the system is explicit. However, the situation is much more involved when it is necessary to perform the evaluation of implicit function between the input and the output of the system through numerical models. In this work, we propose a technique that combines Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and Probabilistic Transformation Method (PTM) to evaluate the Probability Density Function (PDF) of response where the function between the input and the output of the system is implicit. This technique is based on the numerical simulations of the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and the Probabilistic Transformation Method (PTM) using an interface between Finite Element software and Matlab. Some problems of structures are treated in order to prove the applicability of the proposed technique. Moreover, the obtained results are compared to those obtained by the reference method of Monte Carlo. A second aim of this work is to develop an algorithm of global optimization using the local method SQP, because of its effectiveness and its rapidity of convergence. For this reason, we have combined the method SQP with the Multi start method. This developed algorithm is tested on test functions comparing with other methods such as the method of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). In order to test the applicability of the proposed approach, a structure is optimized under reliability constraints.
文摘A class of trust region methods for solving linear inequality constrained problems is proposed in this paper. It is shown that the algorithm is of global convergence.The algorithm uses a version of the two-sided projection and the strategy of the unconstrained trust region methods. It keeps the good convergence properties of the unconstrained case and has the merits of the projection method. In some sense, our algorithm can be regarded as an extension and improvement of the projected type algorithm.

文摘In this paper, we establish a second-order sufficient condition for constrained optimization problems of a class of so called t-stable functions in terms of the first-order and the second-order Dini type directional derivatives. The result extends the corresponding result of [D. Bednarik and K. Pastor, Math. Program. Ser. A, 113（2008）, 283-298] to constrained optimization problems.
文摘In this paper, survival data analysis is realized by applying Generalized Entropy Optimization Methods (GEOM). It is known that all statistical distributions can be obtained as distribution by choosing corresponding moment functions. However, Generalized Entropy Optimization Distributions (GEOD) in the form of distributions which are obtained on basis of Shannon measure and supplementary optimization with respect to characterizing moment functions, more exactly represent the given statistical data. For this reason, survival data analysis by GEOD acquires a new significance. In this research, the data of the life table for engine failure data (1980) is examined. The performances of GEOD are established by Chi-Square criteria, Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) criteria and Shannon entropy measure, Kullback-Leibler measure. Comparison of GEOD with each other in the different senses shows that along of these distributions (MinMaxEnt)4 is better in the senses of Shannon measure and of Kullback-Leibler measure. It is showed that, (MinMaxEnt)3 ((MaxMaxEnt)4) is more suitable for statistical data among (MinMaxEnt)m,m=1,2,3,4(MaxMaxEnt)m,m=1,2,3,4. Moreover, (MinMaxEnt)3 is better for statistical data than (MaxMaxEnt)4 in the sense of RMSE criteria. According to obtained distribution (MinMaxEnt)3 (MaxMaxEnt)4 estimator of Probability Density Function?f^?(t), Cumulative Distribution Functio?F^ (t) , Survival Function Ŝ(t) and Hazard Rate ĥ(t) are evaluated and graphically illustrated. The results are acquired by using statistical software MATLAB.
