In the method, the sublaminate elements are generated automatically when the delamination damage occurs or extends. Thus, the complex process and state of delamination damage can be simulated practically with high efficiency for both analysis and modeling. Based on the self-adapting delamination method, linear dynamic finite element damage analysis is performed to simulate the low-velocity impact damage process of three types of mixed woven composite laminates. Taking the frictional force among sublaminations during delaminating and the transverse normal stress into account, the analytical results are consistent with those of the experimental data.展开更多

However, it is not an easy task to properly set control parameters in DE for different optiinization problems. According to the relative position of two different individual vectors selected to generate a difference vector in the searching place, a self-adapting strategy for the scale factor F of the difference vector is proposed. In terms of the convergence status of the target vector in the current population, a self-adapting crossover probability constant CR strategy is proposed. Therefore, good target vectors have a lower CFI while worse target vectors have a large CFI. At the same time, the mutation operator is modified to improve the convergence speed. The performance of these proposed approaches are studied with the use of some benchmark problems and applied to the trajectory planning of a three-joint redundant manipulator. Finally, the experiment results show that the proposed approaches can greatly improve robustness and convergence speed.展开更多

New coding regulations or rules are designed. The sinusoidal function is adopted as the self-adapting factor, thus making cross probability and variable probability automatically change with group adaptability in such a way as to overcome the shortcoming in the heuristic algorithm and common GA, so that the operation efficiency is improved. The results from real example simulation and comparison with other algorithms indicate that the mixed self-adapting GA algorithm can well solve the job-shop optimal scheduling problem under the constraints of various kinds of production resources such as machine-tools and cutting tools.展开更多

Large cavities in carbonate formations pose serious threat to drilling operations. Logging-whiledrilling （LWD） is currently used to accurately identify and evaluate cavities in reservoirs during drilling. In this study, we use the self-adaptive hp-FEM algorithm simulate and calculate the LWD resistivity responses of fracture-cavity reservoir cavities. Compared with the traditional h-FEM method, the self-adaptive hp-FEM algorithm has the characteristics of the self-adaptive mesh refinement and the calculations exponentially converge to highly accurate solutions. Using numerical simulations, we investigated the effect of the cavity size, distance between cavity and borehole, and transmitted frequency on the LWD resistivity response. Based on the results, a method for recognizing cavities is proposed. This research can provide the theoretical basis for the accurate identification and quantitative evaluation of various carbonate reservoirs with cavities encountered in practice.展开更多

Bio-inspired manufacturing system can well satisfy these requirements.

Finally, an example based on pheromone communication mechanism indicates that the robustness of the whole manufacturing system is improved by bio-inspired technologies.展开更多

The fuzzy logic controller is able to perform effectively even in situations where the information about the plant is inaccurate and the operating conditions are uncertain. Based on the proportional navigation, the fuzzy logic and the genetic algorithm are combined to develop an evolutionary fuzzy navigation law with self-adapt region for the air-to-air missile guidance. The line of sight (LOS) rate and the closing speed between the missile and the target are inputs of the fuzzy controller. The output of the fuzzy controller is the commanded acceleration. Then a nonlinear function based on the conventional fuzzy logic control is imported to change the region. This nonlinear function can be changed with the input variables. So the dynamic change of the fuzzy variable region is achieved. The guidance law is optimized by the genetic algorithm. Simulation results of air-to-air missile attack using MATLAB show that the method needs less acceleration and shorter flying time, and its realization is simple.[KH*3/4D]展开更多

This mechanism is based on the perception of moving speed and a predesigned selection metric to choose the optimal routing protocol. The routing evaluation and selection metric is derived by OPNET simulations. AODV and OLSR are used as the example to show the process of this mechanism with the moving speed varying. The routing protocol can be configured without central configuration and human management. Besides, the overhead of the mechanism is reasonable and doesnot affect the quality of service （QoS） of the traffic in the network. Results show that the optimal routing protocol can be configured adaptively according to the speed so that better performance than end-to-end delay and packet delivery ratio. a specific protocol can be obtained in terms of

文摘With an aim at the job-shop scheduling problem of multiple resource constraints, this paper presents mixed self-adapting Genetic Algorithm （ GA ） , and establishes a job-shop optimal scheduling model of multiple resource constraints based on the effect of priority scheduling rules in the heuristic algorithm upon the scheduling target. New coding regulations or rules are designed. The sinusoidal function is adopted as the self-adapting factor, thus making cross probability and variable probability automatically change with group adaptability in such a way as to overcome the shortcoming in the heuristic algorithm and common GA, so that the operation efficiency is improved. The results from real example simulation and comparison with other algorithms indicate that the mixed self-adapting GA algorithm can well solve the job-shop optimal scheduling problem under the constraints of various kinds of production resources such as machine-tools and cutting tools.

文摘Most genome-wide association studies(GWAS)of Venous Thromboembolism(VTE)have used data from individuals of European descent,however,genetic factors for VTE have not been fully identified in Chinese populations,which causes the limited use of existing polygenic risk scores(PRS)to identify subpopulations at high risk of VTE for prevention.We,therefore,aimed to curate all the potential VTE-related single-nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs)for the construction of a new improved PRS model based on the self-adapting method,and then evaluate its utility and effectiveness in the stratification of VTE risk in Chinese populations.We comprehensively analyzed the mutation spectrum of VTE-associated SNPs in the Chinese cohort,and ranked their individual risk effects independently using risk ratio,logistic regression coefficient,and penalty regression coefficient as evaluation criteria.By integrating various algorithms and evaluating their performance,we trained the optimal prediction model of VTE risk in the Chinese population with the least SNP features,established an adaptive PRS model with progressive SNP overlay,and tested it on an independent Chinese population cohort.Self-adaptive polygenic risk score model based on all 318 SNPs or on the 44 most strongly associated SNPs performed similarly(areas under receiver-operating characteristic curves(AUCs)of 0.739 and 0.709,respectively)on the testing dataset of the Chinese VTE cohort,and that achieve the overall best level of the AUC from a conventional PRS model based on known genetic risk factors(0.620–0.718).In addition,we observed the self-adaptive PRS model was an independent effective risk stratification indicator beyond other clinical characteristics including age and smoking status.Our data revealed that only 44 SNPs-derived PRS model can be effectively used in discriminating subpopulations at high risk of VTE.To become clinically useful,our model could benefit from a practically feasible VTE screening program for precision prevention in Chinese populations.

文摘Octopuses,due to their flexible arms,marvelous adaptability,and powerful suckers,are able to effortlessly grasp and disengage various objects in the marine surrounding without causing devastation.However,manipulating delicate objects such as soft and fragile foods underwater require gentle contact and stable adhesion,which poses a serious challenge to now available soft grippers.Inspired by the sucker infundibulum structure and flexible tentacles of octopus,herein we developed a hydraulically actuated hydrogel soft gripper with adaptive maneuverability by coupling multiple hydrogen bond-mediated supramolecular hydrogels and vat polymerization three-dimensional printing,in which hydrogel bionic sucker is composed of a tunable curvature membrane,a negative pressure cavity,and a pneumatic chamber.The design of the sucker structure with the alterable curvature membrane is conducive to realize the reliable and gentle switchable adhesion of the hydrogel soft gripper.As a proof-of-concept,the adaptive hydrogel soft gripper is capable of implement diversified underwater tasks,including gingerly grasping fragile foods like egg yolks and tofu,as well as underwater robots and vehicles that station-keeping and crawling based on switchable adhesion.This study therefore provides a transformative strategy for the design of novel soft grippers that will render promising utilities for underwater exploration soft robotics.

文摘The intrinsic volume changes(about 300%)of Si anode during the lithiation/delithiation leads to the serious degradation of battery performance despite of theoretical capacity of 3579 mAh g^(-1) of Si.Herein,a three-dimensional(3D)conductive polymer binder with adjustable crosslinking density has been designed by employing citric acid(CA)as a crosslinker between the carboxymethyl cellulose(CMC)and the poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)poly-(styrene-4-sulfonate)(PEDOT:PSS)to stabilize Si anode.By adjusting the crosslinking density,the binder can achieve a balance between rigidity and flexibility to adapt the volume expansion upon lithiation and reversible volume recovery after delithiation of Si.Therefore,Si/CMC-CA-PEDOT:PSS(Si/CCP)electrode demonstrates an excellent performance with high capacities of 2792.3 mAh g^(-1) at 0.5 A g^(-1) and a high area capacity above 2.6 mAh cm^(-2) under Si loading of 1.38 mg cm^(-2).The full cell Si/CCP paired with Li(Ni_(0.8)Co_(0.1)Mn_(0.1))O_(2) cathode discharges a capacity of 199.0 mAh g^(-1) with 84.3%ICE at 0.1 C and the capacity retention of 95.6%after 100 cycles.This work validates the effectiveness of 3D polymer binder and provides new insights to boost the performance of Si anode.

文摘Solid lubricating coatings play a crucial role in preventing friction and wear failure of the hot-end sliding components in aviation engines.In this study,VAlN/Ag multi-layer coatings with excellent interfacial matching were fabricated using a hybrid magnetron sputtering technique.The type and energy of discharge plasmas were analyzed to comprehend their effects on depositing coatings.The coatings exhibit self-adaptive lubrication properties during the designed consecutive friction with stepwise heating from 25℃to 650℃.The microstructure evolution during early friction facilitates sufficient tribo-chemical reaction at 650℃,leading to the formation of a distinctive"ball-on-rail"structure that significantly reduces friction coefficient.Based on the first-principles calculations,it was found that the bond energy of Ag-O is lower than that of V-O in both AgVO_(3)and Ag_(3)VO_(4),which promotes slipping along the(110)crystal plane and contributes to exceptional tribological properties.The fatigue wear failure mechanism of hard coatings under the thermal-force coupling effects has been elucidated,alongside an exploration of consecutive tribology mechanism at atomic scales over a wide temperature range.

文摘Gecko-inspired van der Waals force-based adhesion technology demonstrates significant potential for robotic operations.While superior adhesion is achieved under parallel contact during testing,engineering operations often involve non-parallel contact,weakening adhesion,and compromising task stability and efficiency.Stable attachment under such non-parallel contacts remains challenging.Inspired by the soft muscle and rigid bone in the gecko’s sole,this study proposes a self-adaptive core-shell dry adhesive by embedding a thin,rigid piece into a soft,thick elastomer comprising a top adhesion tip with a mushroom-like geometry for interfacial adhesion based on the van der Waals force and a bottom core-shell configuration for interface stress regulation.Unlike traditional core-shell structures with a fixed“dead core,”the proposed“live core”rotates within the soft shell,mimicking skeletal joints.This enables stress equalization at the interface and facilitates adaptive contact to macroscopic interfacial angle errors.This innovative core-shell configuration demonstrates an adhesion strength 100 times higher than conventional homogeneous structures under non-parallel contact and offers anti-overturning ability by mitigating torsional effects.The proposed strategy can advance the development of gecko-inspired adhesion-based devices and systems.

文摘Most of the carbonate formation are highly heterogeneous with cavities of different sizes, which makes the prediction of cavity-filled reservoir in carbonate rocks difficult. Large cavities in carbonate formations pose serious threat to drilling operations. Logging-whiledrilling （LWD） is currently used to accurately identify and evaluate cavities in reservoirs during drilling. In this study, we use the self-adaptive hp-FEM algorithm simulate and calculate the LWD resistivity responses of fracture-cavity reservoir cavities. Compared with the traditional h-FEM method, the self-adaptive hp-FEM algorithm has the characteristics of the self-adaptive mesh refinement and the calculations exponentially converge to highly accurate solutions. Using numerical simulations, we investigated the effect of the cavity size, distance between cavity and borehole, and transmitted frequency on the LWD resistivity response. Based on the results, a method for recognizing cavities is proposed. This research can provide the theoretical basis for the accurate identification and quantitative evaluation of various carbonate reservoirs with cavities encountered in practice.

文摘Future manufacturing systems need to cope with frequent changes and disturbances, therefore their control architectures require constant adaptability, agility, stability, self-organization, intelligence, and robustness. Bio-inspired manufacturing system can well satisfy these requirements. For this purpose, by referencing the biological organization structure and the mechanism, a bio-inspired manufacturing cell is presented from a novel view, and then a bio-inspired self-adaptive manufacturing model is established based on the ultra-short feedback mechanism of the neuro-endocrine system. A hio-inspired self-adaptive manufacturing system coordinated model is also established based on the neuro-endocrine-immunity system （NEIS）. Finally, an example based on pheromone communication mechanism indicates that the robustness of the whole manufacturing system is improved by bio-inspired technologies.
文摘Effective guidance is one of the most important tasks to the performance of air-to-air missile. The fuzzy logic controller is able to perform effectively even in situations where the information about the plant is inaccurate and the operating conditions are uncertain. Based on the proportional navigation, the fuzzy logic and the genetic algorithm are combined to develop an evolutionary fuzzy navigation law with self-adapt region for the air-to-air missile guidance. The line of sight (LOS) rate and the closing speed between the missile and the target are inputs of the fuzzy controller. The output of the fuzzy controller is the commanded acceleration. Then a nonlinear function based on the conventional fuzzy logic control is imported to change the region. This nonlinear function can be changed with the input variables. So the dynamic change of the fuzzy variable region is achieved. The guidance law is optimized by the genetic algorithm. Simulation results of air-to-air missile attack using MATLAB show that the method needs less acceleration and shorter flying time, and its realization is simple.[KH*3/4D]
