Abstrakt

As nonlinear optimization techniques are computationally expensive, their usage in the real-time era is constrained. So this is the main challenge for researchers to develop a fast algorithm that is used in real-time computations. This work proposes a fast nonlinear model predictive control approach based on particle swarm optimization for nonlinear optimization with constraints. The suggested algorithm divide and conquer technique improves computing speed and disturbance rejection capability, demonstrating its suitability for real-time applications. The performance of this approach under constraints is validated using a highly nonlinear fast and dynamic real-time inverted pendulum system. The solution presented through work is computationally feasible for smaller sampling times and it gives promising results compared to the state of art PSO algorithm

3 Optimization of the process of restoring the continuity of the WDS based on the matrix and genetic algorithm approach

Słowa kluczowe: WNTR aggregation of failures water distribution system EPANET Solver graph searching algorithm genetic algorithm, optimization post-disaster events

Pobierz PDF Pobierz RIS Pobierz Bibtex

Abstrakt

The article discusses an example of the use of graph search algorithms with trace of water analysis and aggregation of failures in the occurrence of a large number of failures in the Water Supply System (WSS). In the event of a catastrophic situation, based on the Water Distribution System (WDS) network model, information about detected failures, the condition and location of valves, the number of repair teams, criticality analysis, the coefficient of prioritization of individual network elements, and selected objective function, the algorithm proposes the order of repairing the failures should be analyzed. The approach proposed by the authors of the article assumes the selection of the following objective function: minimizing the time of lack of access to drinking water (with or without prioritization) and minimizing failure repair time (with or without failure aggregation). The algorithm was tested on three different water networks (small, medium, and large numbers of nodes) and three different scenarios (different numbers of failures and valves in the water network) for each selected water network. The results were compared to a valve designation approach for closure using an adjacency matrix and a Strategic Valve Management Model (SVMM).

Słowa kluczowe: warp knitting machine parallel machine scheduling iterative greedy algorithm tabu search

Pobierz PDF Pobierz RIS Pobierz Bibtex

Abstrakt

This issue is a typical NP-hard problem for an unrelated parallel machine scheduling problem with makespan minimization as the goal and no sequence-related preparation time. Based on the idea of tabu search (TS), this paper improves the iterative greedy algorithm (IG) and proposes an IG-TS algorithm with deconstruction, reconstruction, and neighborhood search operations as the main optimization process. This algorithm has the characteristics of the strong capability of global search and fast speed of convergence. The warp knitting workshop scheduling problem in the textile industry, which has the complex characteristics of a large scale, nonlinearity, uncertainty, and strong coupling, is a typical unrelated parallel machine scheduling problem. The IG-TS algorithm is applied to solve it, and three commonly used scheduling algorithms are set as a comparison, namely the GA-TS algorithm, ABC-TS algorithm, and PSO-TS algorithm. The outcome shows that the scheduling results of the IG-TS algorithm have the shortest manufacturing time and good robustness. In addition, the production comparison between the IG-TS algorithm scheduling scheme and the artificial experience scheduling scheme for the small-scale example problem shows that the IG-TS algorithm scheduling is slightly superior to the artificial experience scheduling in both planning and actual production. Experiments show that the IG-TS algorithm is feasible in warp knitting workshop scheduling problems, effectively realizing the reduction of energy and the increase in efficiency of a digital workshop in the textile industry.

5 Modeling and energy recovery from a system with two pseudo-levitating magnets

Andrzej Mitura , Krzysztof Kecik

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences Technical Sciences | 2022 | 70 | 4 | e141721 | DOI: 10.24425/bpasts.2022.141721

Słowa kluczowe: energy recovery pseudo-levitating magnets nonlinear dynamics experimental research

Pobierz PDF Pobierz RIS Pobierz Bibtex

Abstrakt

In this paper, a model of an electromagnetic system with two levitating magnets is presented. Modeling was performed using the results of experiments. The data obtained make it possible to fit the magnetic forces between two magnets using a 5th order polynomial. The time series show that dry friction constitutes an important part of damping forces. The differential equations of motion consider strong nonlinearities of magnetic and damping forces. These terms cause the nonlinear hardening effect. The energy recovered by magnetic induction is dissipated in the resistors. Numerical simulations show that resistance has an impact on magnet dynamics and energy recovery. From the resonance characteristics obtained, optimal resistance is determined when energy recovery is the highest.

6 Dynamic characteristics of underframe semi-active inerter-based suspended device for high-speed train based on LQR control

Yong Wang , Hao-Xuan Li , Hao-Dong Meng , Yang Wang

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences Technical Sciences | 2022 | 70 | 4 | e141722 | DOI: 10.24425/bpasts.2022.141722

Słowa kluczowe: dynamic characteristics high-speed train inerter-based suspended device LQR control Sperling index

Pobierz PDF Pobierz RIS Pobierz Bibtex

Abstrakt

The underframe passive inerter-based suspended device, based on the inerter-spring-damper vibration attenuation structure, could improve the dynamic performance of the train body, but its parameters are fixed and cannot meet the dynamic performance requirements under different operating conditions. Therefore, a semi-active inerter-based suspended device based on the linear quadratic regulator (LQR) control strategy is proposed to further enhance the dynamic performance. The rigid-flexible coupling vertical dynamic model of the train body and an underframe semi-active inerter-based suspended device are established. The structural parameters of the semi-active inerter-based suspended device are adjusted using LQR control strategy. Dynamic response of the system is obtained using the virtual excitation method. The dynamic characteristic of the system is evaluated using the Sperling index and compared with those of the passive and semi-active traditional suspended devices as well as the passive inerter-based suspended devices. The vertical vibration acceleration of the train body and Sperling index using the semi-active inerter-based suspended device is the smallest among the four suspended devices, which denotes the advantages of using the inerter and LQR control strategy. The semi-active inerter-based suspended device could decrease the vertical vibration acceleration of the train body and further suppress its elastic vibration in the lower frequency band, more effectively than the other three suspended devices. Overall, the semi-active inerter-based suspended device could significantly reduce elastic vibration of the train body and improve its dynamical performance.

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences Technical Sciences | 2022 | 70 | 4 | e141984 | DOI: 10.24425/bpasts.2022.141984

Słowa kluczowe: heat transfer enhancement airfoil-based tube dimple comprehensive performance

Pobierz PDF Pobierz RIS Pobierz Bibtex

Abstrakt

The performance of a novel airfoil-based tube with dimples is numerically studied in the present work. The effect of Reynolds number Re, dimples number N, relative depth H/D, and cross-distribution angle α on flow and heat transfer characteristics are discussed for Re in the range between 7,753 and 21,736. The velocity contour, temperature contour, and local streamlines are also presented to get an insight into the heat transfer enhancement mechanisms. The results show that both the velocity magnitude and flow direction change, and fluid dynamic vortexes are generated around the dimples, which intensify the flow mixing and interrupt the boundary layer, resulting in a better heat transfer performance accompanied by a certain pressure loss compared with the plain tube. The Nusselt number Nu of the airfoil-based tube increases with the increase of dimples number, relative depth, and Reynolds numbers, but the effect of cross-distribution angle can be ignored. Under geometric parameters considered, the airfoil-based tube with N = 6, H/D = 0.1, α = 0° and Re = 7,753 can obtain the largest average PEC value 1.23. Further, the empirical formulas for Nusselt number Nu and friction factor f are fitted in terms of dimple number N, relative depth H/D, and Reynolds number Re, respectively, with the errors within ± 5%. It is found that the airfoil-based tube with dimples has a good comprehensive performance.

8 The design of structured LDPC codes with algorithmic graph construction

Słowa kluczowe: channel coding ow density parity check codes LDPC nonbinary codes quasi-cyclic codes

Pobierz PDF Pobierz RIS Pobierz Bibtex

Abstrakt

Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) codes are among the most effective modern error-correcting codes due to their excellent correction performance and highly parallel decoding scheme. Moreover, the nonbinary extension of such codes further increases performance in the short-block regime. In this paper, we review the key elements for the construction of implementation-oriented binary and nonbinary codes. These Quasi-Cyclic LDPC (QC-LDPC) codes additionally feature efficient encoder and decoder implementation frameworks. We then present a versatile algorithm for the construction of both binary and nonbinary QC-LDPC codes that have low encoding complexity and an optimized corresponding graph structure. Our algorithm uses a progressive edge growth algorithm, modified for QC-LDPC graph construction, and then performs an iterative global search for optimized cyclic shift values within the QC-LDPC circulants. Strong error correction performance is achieved by minimizing the number of short cycles, and cycles with low external connectivity, within the code graph. We validate this approach via error rate simulations of a transmission system model featuring an LDPC coder-decoder, digital modulation, and additive white Gaussian noise channels. The obtained numerical results validate the effectiveness of the proposed construction algorithm, with a number of constructed codes exhibiting either similar or superior performance to industry standard binary codes and selected nonbinary codes from the literature.

The article proposes a model in which Diffusion Approximation is used to analyse the TCP/AQM transmission mechanism in a multinode computer network. In order to prevent traffic congestion, routers implement AQM (Active Queue Management) algorithms. We investigate the influence of using RED-based AQM mechanisms and the fractional controller PI^γon the transport layer. Additionally, we examine the cases in which the TCP and the UDP flows occur and analyse their mutual influence. Both transport protocols used are independent and work simultaneously. We compare our solution with the Fluid Flow approximation, demonstrating the advantages of Diffusion Approximation.

10 Influence of strain rate and temperature on the mechanical behaviour of additively manufactured AlSi10Mg alloy – experiment and the phenomenological constitutive modelling

Słowa kluczowe: AlSi10Mg aluminium alloy additive manufacturing DMLS method compression SHPB experiment constitutive model

Pobierz PDF Pobierz RIS Pobierz Bibtex

Abstrakt

The paper is related to the material behaviour of additively manufactured samples obtained by the direct metal laser sintering (DMLS) method from the AlSi10Mg powder. The specimens are subjected to a quasi-static and dynamic compressive loading in a wide range of strain rates and temperatures to investigate the influence of the manufacturing process conditions on the material mechanical properties. For completeness, an analysis of their deformed microstructure is also performed. The obtained results prove the complexity of the material behaviour; therefore, a phenomenological model based on the modified Johnson–Cook approach is proposed. The developed model describes the material behaviour with much better accuracy than the classical constitutive function. The resulted experimental testing and its modelling present the potential of the discussed material and the manufacturing technology.

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences Technical Sciences | 2022 | 70 | No. 4 | e141725 | DOI: 10.24425/bpasts.2022.141725

Słowa kluczowe: hydrostatic extrusion anisotropy mechanical properties CuCrZr alloy

Pobierz PDF Pobierz RIS Pobierz Bibtex

Abstrakt

The methods of severe plastic deformation (SPD) of metals and metal alloys are very attractive due to the possibility of refinement of the grains to nanometric sizes, which facilitates obtaining high mechanical properties. This study investigated the influence of SPD in the process of hydrostatic extrusion (HE) on the anisotropy of the mechanical properties of the CuCrZr copper alloy. The method of HE leads to the formation of a characteristic microstructure in deformed materials, which can determine their potential applications. On the longitudinal sections of the extruded bars, a strong morphological texture is observed, manifested by elongated grains in the direction of extrusion. In the transverse direction, these grains are visible as equiaxed. The anisotropy of properties was mainly determined based on the analysis of the static mini-sample static tensile test and the dynamic impact test. The obtained results were correlated with microstructural observations. In the study, three different degrees of deformation were applied at the level necessary to refine the grain size to the ultrafine-grained level. Regardless of the applied degree of deformation, the effect of the formation of a strong morphological texture was demonstrated, as a result of which there is a clear difference between the mechanical properties depending on the test direction, both by the static and dynamic method. The obtained results allow for the identification of the characteristic structure formed during the HE process and the more effective use of the CuCrZr copper alloy in applications.

Słowa kluczowe: Bayesian optimization high-frequency design machine learning

Pobierz PDF Pobierz RIS Pobierz Bibtex

Abstrakt

In this paper, the performance of the Bayesian Optimization (BO) technique applied to various problems of microwave engineering is studied. Bayesian optimization is a novel, non-deterministic, global optimization scheme that uses machine learning to solve complex optimization problems. However, each new optimization scheme needs to be evaluated to find its best application niche, as there is no universal technique that suits all problems. Here, BO was applied to different types of microwave and antenna engineering problems, including matching circuit design, multiband antenna and antenna array design, or microwave filter design. Since each of the presented problems has a different nature and characteristics such as different scales (i.e. number of design variables), we try to address the question about the generality of BO and identify the problem areas for which the technique is or is not recommended.

13 A computationally low burden MPTC of induction machine without prediction loop and weighting factor

Babak Kiani

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences Technical Sciences | 2022 | 70 | 4 | e142050 | DOI: 10.24425/bpasts.2022.142050

Słowa kluczowe: MPTC induction motor duty ratio voltage vector look-up table weighting factor

Pobierz PDF Pobierz RIS Pobierz Bibtex

Abstrakt

This paper presents a novel method to overcome problems of finite set-model-based predictive torque control (MPTC) which has received a lot of attention in the last two decades. Tuning the weighting factor, evaluating a large number of switching states in the loop of the predictive control, and determining the duty cycle are three major challenges of the regular techniques. Torque and flux responses of deadbeat control have been developed to overcome these problems. In our method, firstly, the prediction stage is performed just once. Then, both the weighted cost function and its evaluation are replaced with only simple relationships. The relationships reduce torque ripple and THD of stator current compromisingly. In the next step, the length of the virtual vector is used to determine the duty cycle of the optimum voltage vector without any additional computations. The duty ratio does not focus on any relation or criteria minimizing torque or flux ripple. As a result, torque and flux ripples are reduced equally. The proposed duty cycle is calculated by using a predicted virtual voltage vector. Hence, no new computation is needed to determine the proposed duty cycle. Simulation and experimental results confirm both the steady and dynamic performance of the proposed method in all speed ranges.

14 Fuzzy logic in knowledge dissemination due to citation trees. Contribution to discipline vector

Aleksandra Mreła , Veslava Osińska , Oleksandr Sokolov

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences Technical Sciences | 2022 | 70 | 4 | e141988 | DOI: 10.24425/bpasts.2022.141988

Słowa kluczowe: knowledge dissemination citation analysis fuzzy aggregation norm contribution to discipline

Pobierz PDF Pobierz RIS Pobierz Bibtex

Abstrakt

Large sets of articles are evaluated by predefined measures such as the article numbers and h-indexes. All of these indicators are scalars and refer rather to one discipline or the comprehensive science. Thus, according to disciplinary categories in scientific databases, the distribution has become too rigid for current science needs, dynamically growing towards inter- and trans-disciplinarity. We propose a new method of calculating the impact on knowledge of articles and their citations, creating citation networks, and using one of the optimistic fuzzy aggregation norms to estimate the contribution to the knowledge considering the citation inheritance of citing papers to cited papers (paper children to the paper-parents). Due to this method, we produced the contribution vectors for various disciplines/subdisciplines based on articles and their citations of publications belonging to the considered disciplines. We can prepare the scientific profiles of papers and disciplines based on the contribution vectors. Moreover, we can evaluate how much citations matter in the development of science. Applying this method, we can estimate the contribution to the considered research field caused by papers and their citations from different areas of science. The proposed method might be applicable in the assessment of developing concepts.

15 Seismic velocity of P-waves to evaluate strength of stabilized soil for Svenska Cellulosa Aktiebolaget Biorefinery Östrand AB, Timrå

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences Technical Sciences | 2022 | 70 | 4 | e141593 | DOI: 10.24425/bpasts.2022.141593

Słowa kluczowe: unconfined compressive strength P-wave velocity stabilized soil cement slag

Pobierz PDF Pobierz RIS Pobierz Bibtex

Abstrakt

Evaluating soil strength by geophysical methods using P-waves was undertaken in this study to assess the effects of changed binder ratios on stabilization and compression characteristics. The materials included dredged sediments collected in the seabed of Timrå region, north Sweden. The Portland cement (Basement CEM II/A-V, SS EN 197-1) and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) were used as stabilizers. The experiments were performed on behalf of the Svenska Cellulosa Aktiebolaget (SCA) Biorefinery Östrand AB pulp mill. Quantity of binder included 150, 120 and 100 kg. The properties of soil were evaluated after 28, 42, 43, 70, 71 and 85 days of curing using applied geophysical methods of measuring the travel time of primary wave propagation. The P-waves were determined to evaluate the strength of stabilized soils. The results demonstrated variation of P-waves velocity depending on stabilizing agent and curing time in various ratios: Low water/High binder (LW/HB), High water/Low binder (HW/LB) and percentage of agents (CEM II/A-V/GGBFS) as 30%/70%, 50%/50% and 70%/30%. The compression characteristics of soils were assessed using uniaxial compressive strength (UCS). The P-wave velocities were higher for samples stabilized with LW/HB compared to those with HW/LB. The primary wave propagation increased over curing time for all stabilized mixes along with the increased UCS, which proves a tight correlation with the increased strength of soil solidified by the agents. Increased water ratio gives a lower strength by maintained amount of binder and vice versa.
