A multi-objective model was presented for the material distribution routing problem in mixed manufacturing systems, and it was solved by a hybrid multi-objective evolutionary algorithm (HMOEA). The characteristics of the HMOEA are as follows: 1) A route pool is employed to preserve the best routes for the population initiation; 2) A specialized best?worst route crossover (BWRC) mode is designed to perform the crossover operators for selecting the best route from Chromosomes 1 to exchange with the worst one in Chromosomes 2, so that the better genes are inherited to the offspring; 3) A route swap mode is used to perform the mutation for improving the convergence speed and preserving the better gene; 4) Local heuristics search methods are applied in this algorithm. Computational study of a practical case shows that the proposed algorithm can decrease the total travel distance by 51.66%, enhance the average vehicle load rate by 37.85%, cut down 15 routes and reduce a deliver vehicle. The convergence speed of HMOEA is faster than that of famous NSGA-II.展开更多

This paper proposes a general working pattern for a GEO optical satellite, as well as a target observation mission planning model. After analyzing the requirements of users and satellite control agencies, two objectives are simultaneously considered: maximization of total profit and minimization of satellite attitude maneuver angle. An NSGA-II based multi-objective optimization algorithm is proposed, which contains some heuristic principles in the initialization phase and mutation operator, and is embedded with a traveling salesman problem (TSP) optimization. The validity and performance of the proposed method are verified by extensive numerical simulations that include several types of point target distributions.展开更多

The current study discusses a way for locating and setting of thyristor controlled series capacitor(TCSC) and static var compensator(SVC) using the multi-objective optimization approach named strength pareto multi-objective evolutionary algorithm(SPMOEA). Maximization of the static voltage stability margin(SVSM) and minimizations of real power losses(RPL) and load voltage deviation(LVD) are taken as the goals or three objective functions, when optimally locating multi-type FACTS devices. The performance and effectiveness of the proposed approach has been validated by the simulation results of the IEEE 30-bus and IEEE 118-bus test systems. The proposed approach is compared with non-dominated sorting particle swarm optimization(NSPSO) algorithm. This comparison confirms the usefulness of the multi-objective proposed technique that makes it promising for determination of combinatorial problems of FACTS devices location and setting in large scale power systems.展开更多

文摘Through employing zeolitic imidazolate framework-67(ZIF-67)templates,the straightforward hydrother-mal and electrodeposition methods were applied to synthesize FeOOH@CoMoO_(4)heterostructure attached to the sur-face of nickel foam(NF).The specific structure of the as-prepared FeOOH@CoMoO_(4)/NF-400s provided pronounced porosity and extensive surface area,enhancing rapid electron transport and exposing abundant active sites to improve catalytic reactions.Furthermore,the introduction of FeOOH,which induces electron transfer from FeOOH to CoMoO_(4),confirms their strong electronic interaction,thereby leading to an accelerated surface catalytic reaction.Consequently,the constructed FeOOH@CoMoO_(4)/NF-400s heterostructure demonstrated exceptional oxygen evolu-tion reaction(OER)activity,requiring an overpotential of 199 mV to deliver the current density of 10 mA·cm^(-2),cou-pled with the superior Tafel slope value of 49.56 mV·dec^(-1)and outstanding stability over 20 h under the current densities of both 10 and 100 mA·cm^(-2).
文摘In the last decade,space solar power satellites(SSPSs)have been conceived to support net-zero carbon emissions and have attracted considerable attention.Electric energy is transmitted to the ground via a microwave power beam,a technology known as microwave power transmission(MPT).Due to the vast transmission distance of tens of thousands of kilometers,the power transmitting antenna array must span up to 1 kilometer in diameter.At the same time,the size of the rectifying array on the ground should extend over a few kilometers.This makes the MPT system of SSPSs significantly larger than the existing aerospace engineering system.To design and operate a rational MPT system,comprehensive optimization is required.Taking the space MPT system engineering into consideration,a novel multi-objective optimization function is proposed and further analyzed.The multi-objective optimization problem is modeled mathematically.Beam collection efficiency(BCE)is the primary factor,followed by the thermal management capability.Some tapers,designed to solve the conflict between BCE and the thermal problem,are reviewed.In addition to these two factors,rectenna design complexity is included as a functional factor in the optimization objective.Weight coefficients are assigned to these factors to prioritize them.Radiating planar arrays with different aperture illumination fields are studied,and their performances are compared using the multi-objective optimization function.Transmitting array size,rectifying array size,transmission distance,and transmitted power remaine constant in various cases,ensuring fair comparisons.The analysis results show that the proposed optimization function is effective in optimizing and selecting the MPT system architecture.It is also noted that the multi-objective optimization function can be expanded to include other factors in the future.

文摘Polymeric perylene diimide(PDI)has been evidenced as a good candidate for photocatalytic water oxidation,yet the origin of the photocatalytic oxygen evolution activity remains unclear and needs further exploration.Herein,with crystal and atomic structures of the self-assembled PDI revealed from the X-ray diffraction pattern,the electronic structure is theoretically illustrated by the first-principles density functional theory calculations,suggesting the suitable band structure and the direct electronic transition for efficient photocatalytic oxygen evolution over PDI.It is confirmed that the carbonyl O atoms on the conjugation structure serve as the active sites for oxygen evolution reaction by the crystal orbital Hamiltonian group analysis.The calculations of reaction free energy changes indicate that the oxygen evolution reaction should follow the reaction pathway of H_(2)O→^(*)OH→^(*)O→^(*)OOH→^(*)O_(2)with an overpotential of 0.81 V.Through an in-depth theoretical computational analysis in the atomic and electronic structures,the origin of photocatalytic oxygen evolution activity for PDI is well illustrated,which would help the rational design and modification of polymeric photocatalysts for efficient oxygen evolution.

文摘The utilization of nickel-based catalysts as alternatives to expensive platinum-based(Pt-based)materials for the hydrogen evolution reaction in acidic electrolytes has attracted considerable attention due to their potential for enabling cost-effective industrial applications.However,the unsatisfied cyclic stability and electrochemical activity limit their further application.In this work,nickel-molybdenum(Ni-Mo)alloy catalysts were successfully synthesized through a comprehensive process including electrodeposition,thermal annealing,and electrochemical activation.Owing to the synergistic interaction of molybdenum trinickelide(Ni_(3)Mo)and molybdenum dioxide(MoO_(2))in Ni-Mo alloy,the catalyst display superior overall electrochemical properties.A low overpotential of 86 mV at 10 mA/cm^(2)and a Tafel slope of 74.0 mV/dec in 0.5 mol/L H_(2)SO_(4)solution can be achieved.Notably,remarkable stability with negligible performance degradation even after 100 h could be maintained.This work presents a novel and effective strategy for the design and fabrication of high-performance,non-precious metal electrocatalysts for acidic water electrolysis.

文摘Elemental doping is an effective strategy for tuning the band structure of graphite carbon nitride(CN)to enhance its photocatalytic performance.In this study,sodium(Na)and oxygen(O)co-doped carbon nitride(Na/O-CN_(x),x=1.0,2.0,3.0,4.0)was synthesized via solid-phase reaction of sodium citrate(NaCA)and pure CN powder in the Teflon-sealed autoclave under air conditions at 180℃.Surface area of Na/O-CN_(3.0) is measured to be 18.8 m^(2)/g,increasing by 60.7%compared to that of pure CN(11.7 m^(2)/g).Bandgap energy of Na/O-CN_(3.0) is determined to be 2.68 eV,marginally lower than that of pure CN(2.70 eV),thereby enhancing its capacity for sunlight absorption.Meanwhile,the incorporation of Na and O atoms into Na/O-CN_(x) is found to effectively reduce recombination rates of photogenerated electron-hole pairs.As a result,Na/O-CN_(x) samples exhibit markedly enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen evolution activity under visible light irradiation.Notably,the optimal Na/O-CN_(3.0) sample achieves a photocatalytic hydrogen production rate of 103.2μmol·g^(–1)·h^(–1),which is 8.2 times greater than that of pure CN(11.2μmol·g^(–1)·h^(–1)).Furthermore,a series of Na/O-CN_(x)-yO_(2)(y=0,20%,40%,60%,80%,100%)samples were prepared by modulating the oxygen content within reaction atmosphere.The catalytic performance evaluations reveal that the incorporation of both Na and O atoms in Na/O-CN_(3.0) enhances photocatalytic activity.This study also introduces novel methodologies for synthesis of metal atom-doped CN materials at lower temperature,highlighting the synergistic effect of Na and O atoms in photocatalytic hydrogen production of Na/O-CN_(x) samples.

文摘The lack of systematic and scientific top-level arrangement in the field of civil aircraft flight test leads to the problems of long duration and high cost.Based on the flight test activity,mathematical models of flight test duration and cost are established to set up the framework of flight test process.The top-level arrangement for flight test is optimized by multi-objective algorithm to reduce the duration and cost of flight test.In order to verify the necessity and validity of the mathematical models and the optimization algorithm of top-level arrangement,real flight test data is used to make an example calculation.Results show that the multi-objective optimization results of the top-level flight arrangement are better than the initial arrangement data,which can shorten the duration,reduce the cost,and improve the efficiency of flight test.

文摘The development of highly active catalyst in pH-neutral media for oxygen evolution reaction(OER)is critical in the field of renewable energy storage and conversion.Nevertheless,the slow kinetics of proton-coupled electron transfer(PCET)hinders the overall OER efficiency.Herein,we report an ionic liquid(IL)modified CoSn(OH)_(6)nanocubes(denoted as CoS-n(OH)_(6)-IL),which could be prepared through a facile strategy.The modified IL would not change the structural character-istics of CoSn(OH)_(6),but could effectively regulate the local proton activity near the active sites.The CoSn(OH)_(6)-IL exhibited higher intrinsic OER performances than the pristine CoSn(OH)_(6)in neutral media.For example,the current density of CoS-n(OH)_(6)-IL at 1.8 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode(RHE)was about 4 times higher than that of CoSn(OH)_(6).According to the pH-dependent kinetic investigations,operando electrochemical impedance spectroscopic,chemical probe tests,and deuterium kinetic isotope effects,the interfacial layer of IL could be utilized as a proton transfer mediator to promote the proton transfer,which enhances the surface coverage of OER intermediates and reduces the activation barrier.Consequent-ly,the sluggish OER kinetics would be efficiently accelerated.This study provides a facile and effective strategy to facilitate the PCET processes and is beneficial to guide the rational design of OER electrocatalysts.

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The ultrafine copper wire with a diameter of 18μm is prepared via cold drawing process from the single crystal downcast billet(Φ8 mm),taking a drawing strain to 12.19.In this paper,in-depth investigation of the microstructure feature,texture evolution,mechanical properties,and electrical conductivity of ultrafine wires ranging fromΦ361μm toΦ18μm is performed.Specially,the microstructure feature and texture type covering the whole longitudinal section of ultrafine wires are elaborately characterized.The results show that the average lamella thickness decreases from 1.63μm to 102 nm during the drawing process.Whereas,inhomogeneous texture evolution across different wire sections was observed.The main texture types of copper wires are comprised of<111>,<001>and<112>orientations.Specifically,the peripheral region is primarily dominated by<111>and<112>,while the central region is dominated by<001>and<111>.As the drawing strain increases,the volume fraction of hard orientation<111>with low Schmid factor increases,where notably higher fraction of<111>is resulted from the consumption of<112>and<001>for the wire ofΦ18μm.For drawn copper wire of 18μm,superior properties are obtained with a tensile strength of 729.8 MPa and an electrical conductivity of 86.9%IACS.Furthermore,it is found that grain strengthening,dislocation strengthening,and texture strengthening are three primary strengthening mechanisms of drawn copper wire,while the dislocation density is the main factor on the reducing of conductivity.
