Abstract This study proposes a novel method for predicting the microcrack propagation in composites based on coupling the local and non-local micromechanics. The special feature of this method is that it can take full advantages of both the continuum micromechanics as a local model and peridynamic micromechanics as a non-local model to achieve composite fracture simulation with a higher level of accuracy and efficiency. Based on the energy equivalence, we first establish the equivalent continuum micromechanics model with equivalent stiffness operators through peridynamic micromechanics model. These two models are then coupled into a closed equation system, More >

Abstract In this paper, we consider the numerical implementation of the 2D wave equation in isotropic-heterogeneous media. The stability analysis of the scheme using the von Neumann stability method has been studied. We conducted a study on modeling the propagation of acoustic waves in a heterogeneous medium and performed numerical simulations in various heterogeneous media at different time steps. Developed parallel code using Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) technology and tested on domains of various sizes. Performance analysis showed that our parallel approach showed significant speedup compared to sequential code on the Central Processing Unit (CPU). More >

Abstract With the development of vehicles towards intelligence and connectivity, vehicular data is diversifying and growing dramatically. A task allocation model and algorithm for heterogeneous Intelligent Connected Vehicle (ICV) applications are proposed for the dispersed computing network composed of heterogeneous task vehicles and Network Computing Points (NCPs). Considering the amount of task data and the idle resources of NCPs, a computing resource scheduling model for NCPs is established. Taking the heterogeneous task execution delay threshold as a constraint, the optimization problem is described as the problem of maximizing the utilization of computing resources by NCPs.

Abstract Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation for computing Interatomic Potential (IAP) is a very important High-Performance Computing (HPC) application. MD simulation on particles of experimental relevance takes huge computation time, despite using an expensive high-end server. Heterogeneous computing, a combination of the Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) and a computer, is proposed as a solution to compute MD simulation efficiently. In such heterogeneous computation, communication between FPGA and Computer is necessary. One such MD simulation, explained in the paper, is the (Artificial Neural Network) ANN-based IAP computation of gold (Au₁₄₇ & Au₃₀₉) nanoparticles. MD simulation calculates the forces… More >

Abstract The collective Unmanned Weapon System-of-Systems (UWSOS) network represents a fundamental element in modern warfare, characterized by a diverse array of unmanned combat platforms interconnected through heterogeneous network architectures. Despite its strategic importance, the UWSOS network is highly susceptible to hostile infiltrations, which significantly impede its battlefield recovery capabilities. Existing methods to enhance network resilience predominantly focus on basic graph relationships, neglecting the crucial higher-order dependencies among nodes necessary for capturing multi-hop meta-paths within the UWSOS. To address these limitations, we propose the Enhanced-Resilience Multi-Layer Attention Graph Convolutional Network (E-MAGCN), designed to augment the adaptability of More >

Abstract A significant obstacle in intelligent transportation systems (ITS) is the capacity to predict traffic flow. Recent advancements in deep neural networks have enabled the development of models to represent traffic flow accurately. However, accurately predicting traffic flow at the individual road level is extremely difficult due to the complex interplay of spatial and temporal factors. This paper proposes a technique for predicting short-term traffic flow data using an architecture that utilizes convolutional bidirectional long short-term memory (Conv-BiLSTM) with attention mechanisms. Prior studies neglected to include data pertaining to factors such as holidays, weather conditions, and More >

Abstract The multiscale method provides an effective approach for the numerical analysis of heterogeneous viscoelastic materials by reducing the degree of freedoms (DOFs). A basic framework of the Multiscale Scaled Boundary Finite Element Method (MsSBFEM) was presented in our previous works, but those works only addressed two-dimensional problems. In order to solve more realistic problems, a three-dimensional MsSBFEM is further developed in this article. In the proposed method, the octree SBFEM is used to deal with the three-dimensional calculation for numerical base functions to bridge small and large scales, the three-dimensional image-based analysis can be conveniently… More >

Abstract The increased adoption of Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) technologies has resulted in the widespread use of Body Area Networks (BANs) in medical and non-medical domains. However, the performance of IEEE 802.15.4-based BANs is impacted by challenges related to heterogeneous data traffic requirements among nodes, including contention during finite backoff periods, association delays, and traffic channel access through clear channel assessment (CCA) algorithms. These challenges lead to increased packet collisions, queuing delays, retransmissions, and the neglect of critical traffic, thereby hindering performance indicators such as throughput, packet delivery ratio, packet drop rate, and packet delay.… More >

Abstract The surrounding rock of roadways exhibits intricate characteristics of discontinuity and heterogeneity. To address these complexities, this study employs non-local Peridynamics (PD) theory and reconstructs the kernel function to represent accurately the spatial decline of long-range force. Additionally, modifications to the traditional bond-based PD model are made. By considering the micro-structure of coal-rock materials within a uniform discrete model, heterogeneity characterized by bond random pre-breaking is introduced. This approach facilitates the proposal of a novel model capable of handling the random distribution characteristics of material heterogeneity, rendering the PD model suitable for analyzing the deformation… More >

Abstract The structural optimization of wireless sensor networks is a critical issue because it impacts energy consumption and hence the network’s lifetime. Many studies have been conducted for homogeneous networks, but few have been performed for heterogeneous wireless sensor networks. This paper utilizes Rao algorithms to optimize the structure of heterogeneous wireless sensor networks according to node locations and their initial energies. The proposed algorithms lack algorithm-specific parameters and metaphorical connotations. The proposed algorithms examine the search space based on the relations of the population with the best, worst, and randomly assigned solutions. The proposed algorithms… More >
