The lifetimes of these clusters are calculated according to their Lindemann index δ (t) using the criteria of δ≥0.07. For both the filled and empty clusters, we find the dynamics of bulk water determines the lifetimes of cage-like water clusters, and that the lifetime of 512 62 cage-like cluster is the same as that of 512 cage-like cluster. Although the methane molecule indeed makes the filled cage-like cluster more stable than the empty one, the empty cage-like cluster still has chance to be long-lived compared with the filled clusters. These observations support the labile cluster hypothesis on the formation mechanisms of gas hydrates.展开更多

However, due to the temper-ature sensitivity of optical devices, the influence of environmen-tal temperature causes errors in FOG, thereby greatly limiting their output accuracy. This work researches on machine-learn-ing based temperature error compensation techniques for FOG. Specifically, it focuses on compensating for the bias errors gen-erated in the fiber ring due to the Shupe effect. This work pro-poses a composite model based on k-means clustering, sup-port vector regression, and particle swarm optimization algo-rithms. And it significantly reduced redundancy within the sam-ples by adopting the interval sequence sample. Moreover, met-rics such as root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), bias stability, and Allan variance, are selected to evaluate the model’s performance and compensation effective-ness. This work effectively enhances the consistency between data and models across different temperature ranges and tem-perature gradients, improving the bias stability of the FOG from 0.022 °/h to 0.006 °/h. Compared to the existing methods utiliz-ing a single machine learning model, the proposed method increases the bias stability of the compensated FOG from 57.11% to 71.98%, and enhances the suppression of rate ramp noise coefficient from 2.29% to 14.83%. This work improves the accuracy of FOG after compensation, providing theoretical guid-ance and technical references for sensors error compensation work in other fields.展开更多

文摘Molecular dynamics simulations are performed to observe the evolutions of 512 and 51262 cage-like water clusters filled with or without a methane molecule immersed in bulk liquid water at 250 K and 230 K. The lifetimes of these clusters are calculated according to their Lindemann index δ (t) using the criteria of δ≥0.07. For both the filled and empty clusters, we find the dynamics of bulk water determines the lifetimes of cage-like water clusters, and that the lifetime of 512 62 cage-like cluster is the same as that of 512 cage-like cluster. Although the methane molecule indeed makes the filled cage-like cluster more stable than the empty one, the empty cage-like cluster still has chance to be long-lived compared with the filled clusters. These observations support the labile cluster hypothesis on the formation mechanisms of gas hydrates.

文摘Privacy is becoming one of the most notable challenges threatening wireless sensor networks(WSNs).Adversaries may use RF(radio frequency) localization techniques to perform hop-by-hop trace back to the source sensor's location.A multiple k-hop clusters based routing strategy(MHCR) is proposed to preserve source-location privacy as well as enhance energy efficiency for WSNs.Owing to the inherent characteristics of intra-cluster data aggregation,each sensor of the interference clusters is able to act as a fake source to confuse the adversary.Moreover,dummy traffic could be filtered efficiently by the cluster heads during the data aggregation,ensuring no energy consumption be burdened in the hotspot of the network.Through careful analysis and calculation on the distribution and the number of interference clusters,energy efficiency is significantly enhanced without reducing the network lifetime.Finally,the security and delay performance of MHCR scheme are theoretically analyzed.Extensive analysis and simulation results demonstrate that MHCR scheme can improve both the location privacy security and energy efficiency markedly,especially in large-scale WSNs.

文摘Offboard active decoys(OADs)can effectively jam monopulse radars.However,for missiles approaching from a particular direction and distance,the OAD should be placed at a specific location,posing high requirements for timing and deployment.To improve the response speed and jamming effect,a cluster of OADs based on an unmanned surface vehicle(USV)is proposed.The formation of the cluster determines the effectiveness of jamming.First,based on the mechanism of OAD jamming,critical conditions are identified,and a method for assessing the jamming effect is proposed.Then,for the optimization of the cluster formation,a mathematical model is built,and a multi-tribe adaptive particle swarm optimization algorithm based on mutation strategy and Metropolis criterion(3M-APSO)is designed.Finally,the formation optimization problem is solved and analyzed using the 3M-APSO algorithm under specific scenarios.The results show that the improved algorithm has a faster convergence rate and superior performance as compared to the standard Adaptive-PSO algorithm.Compared with a single OAD,the optimal formation of USV-OAD cluster effectively fills the blind area and maximizes the use of jamming resources.

文摘It is known that centers, widths, and weights are three mainly considered factors in constructing a radial basis function（RBF） network.This paper aims at constructing a compact RBF network with two main steps.In the first step, the coarse clusters computed from triangle inequalities are refined to obtain the locations of centers by the defined maximum degree spanning tree（MDST）.Meanwhile the coarse widths are obtained.In the second step, a learning algorithm referred to as anisotropic gradient descent method is presented to further refine the above coarse widths.Experiments of the proposed algorithm show its great performance in times series prediction and classification.

文摘Electrocatalytic water splitting provides an efficient method for the production of hydrogen.In electrocatalytic water splitting,the oxygen evolution reaction(OER)involves a kinetically sluggish four-electron transfer process,which limits the efficiency of electrocatalytic water splitting.Therefore,it is urgent to develop highly active OER catalysts to accelerate reaction kinetics.Coupling single atoms and clusters in one system is an innovative approach for developing efficient catalysts that can synergistically optimize the adsorption and configuration of intermediates and improve catalytic activity.However,research in this area is still scarce.Herein,we constructed a heterogeneous single-atom cluster system by anchoring Ir single atoms and Co clusters on the surface of Ni(OH)_(2)nanosheets.Ir single atoms and Co clusters synergistically improved the catalytic activity toward the OER.Specifically,Co_(n)Ir_(1)/Ni(OH)_(2)required an overpotential of 255 mV at a current density of 10 mA·cm^(−2),which was 60 mV and 67 mV lower than those of Co_(n)/Ni(OH)_(2)and Ir1/Ni(OH)_(2),respectively.The turnover frequency of Co_(n)Ir_(1)/Ni(OH)_(2)was 0.49 s^(−1),which was 4.9 times greater than that of Co_(n)/Ni(OH)_(2)at an overpotential of 300 mV.

文摘In the paper,we report a highly robust and porous bimetallic Ti-MOF(designated Mg_(2)Ti-ABTC)by utiliz-ing a trinuclear[Mg_(2)TiO(COO)_(6)]cluster and a tetradentate H_(4)ABTC(3,3′,5,5′-azobenzene tetracarboxylic acid)ligand.Mg_(2)Ti-ABTC exhibited permanent porosity for N_(2),CO_(2),CH_(4),C_(2)H_(2),C_(2)H_(4),and C_(2)H_(6)gas adsorption.Further-more,Mg_(2)Ti-ABTC exhibited outstanding photocatalytic activity in the oxidation of aromatic sulfides to the corre-sponding sulfoxides under ambient air conditions.Mechanism studies reveal that photoinduced holes(h^(+)),the super-oxide radical(·O_(2)^(-)),and singlet oxygen(^(1)O_(2))are pivotal species involved in the photocatalytic oxidation reaction.

文摘When performing tasks,unmanned clusters often face a variety of strategy choices.One of the key issues in unmanned cluster tasks is the method through which to design autonomous collaboration and cooperative evolution mechanisms that allow for unmanned clusters to maximize their overall task effective-ness under the condition of strategic diversity.This paper ana-lyzes these task requirements from three perspectives:the diver-sity of the decision space,information network construction,and the autonomous collaboration mechanism.Then,this paper pro-poses a method for solving the problem of strategy selection diversity under two network structures.Next,this paper presents a Moran-rule-based evolution dynamics model for unmanned cluster strategies and a vision-driven-mechanism-based evolu-tion dynamics model for unmanned cluster strategy in the con-text of strategy selection diversity according to various unmanned cluster application scenarios.Finally,this paper pro-vides a simulation analysis of the effects of relevant parameters such as the payoff factor and cluster size on cooperative evolu-tion in autonomous cluster collaboration for the two types of models.On this basis,this paper presents advice for effectively addressing diverse choices in unmanned cluster tasks,thereby providing decision support for practical applications of unmanned cluster tasks.
文摘As battlefield scale enlarges,cross-platform collaborative combat provides an appealing paradigm for modern warfare.Complicated constraints and vast solution space pose great challenge for reasonable and efficient mission planning,where path planning and target assignment are tightly coupled.In this paper,we focus on UAV mission planning under carrier delivery mode(e.g.,by aircraft carrier,ground vehicle,or transport aircraft) and design a three-layer hierarchical solution framework.In the first layer,we simultaneously determine delivery points and target set division by clustering.To address the safety concerns of radar risk and UAV endurance,an improved density peak clustering algorithm is developed by constraint fusio n.In the second layer,mission planning within each cluster is viewed as a coope rative multiple-task assignment problem.A hybrid heuristic algorithm that integrates a voting-based heuristic solution generation strategy(VHSG) and a stochastic variable neighborhood search(SVNS),called VHSG-SVNS,is proposed for rapid solution.Based on the results of the first two layers,the third layer transforms carrier path planning into a multiple-vehicle routing problem with time window.The cost between any two nodes is calculated by the A~* algorithm,and the genetic algorithm is then implemented to determine the global route.Finally,a practical mission scenario containing 200 targets is used to validate the effectiveness of the designed framework,where three layers cooperate well with each other to generate satisfactory combat scheduling.Comparisons are made in each layer to highlight optimum-seeking capability and efficiency of the proposed algorithms.Works done in this paper provide a simple but efficient solution framework for cross-platform cooperative mission planning problems,and can be potentially extended to other applications such as post-disaster search and rescue,forest surveillance and firefighting,logistics pick and delivery,etc.

文摘As the core component of inertial navigation systems, fiber optic gyroscope (FOG), with technical advantages such as low power consumption, long lifespan, fast startup speed, and flexible structural design, are widely used in aerospace, unmanned driving, and other fields. However, due to the temper-ature sensitivity of optical devices, the influence of environmen-tal temperature causes errors in FOG, thereby greatly limiting their output accuracy. This work researches on machine-learn-ing based temperature error compensation techniques for FOG. Specifically, it focuses on compensating for the bias errors gen-erated in the fiber ring due to the Shupe effect. This work pro-poses a composite model based on k-means clustering, sup-port vector regression, and particle swarm optimization algo-rithms. And it significantly reduced redundancy within the sam-ples by adopting the interval sequence sample. Moreover, met-rics such as root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), bias stability, and Allan variance, are selected to evaluate the model’s performance and compensation effective-ness. This work effectively enhances the consistency between data and models across different temperature ranges and tem-perature gradients, improving the bias stability of the FOG from 0.022 °/h to 0.006 °/h. Compared to the existing methods utiliz-ing a single machine learning model, the proposed method increases the bias stability of the compensated FOG from 57.11% to 71.98%, and enhances the suppression of rate ramp noise coefficient from 2.29% to 14.83%. This work improves the accuracy of FOG after compensation, providing theoretical guid-ance and technical references for sensors error compensation work in other fields.

文摘Unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs)have become one of the key technologies to achieve future data collection due to their high mobility,rapid deployment,low cost,and the ability to establish line-of-sight communication links.However,when UAV swarm perform tasks in narrow spaces,they often encounter various spatial obstacles,building shielding materials,and high-speed node movements,which result in intermittent network communication links and cannot support the smooth comple-tion of tasks.In this paper,a high mobility and dynamic topol-ogy of the UAV swarm is particularly considered and the high dynamic mobile topology-based clustering(HDMTC)algorithm is proposed.Simulation and real flight verification results verify that the proposed HDMTC algorithm achieves higher stability of net-work,longer link expiration time(LET),and longer node lifetime,all of which improve the communication performance for UAV swarm networks.
