Abstract The present study deals with the assessment of different turbulence models for heated wall jet flow. The velocity field and thermal characteristics for isothermal and uniform heat flux surfaces in the presence of wall jet flow have been predicted using different turbulence models and the results are compared against the experimental data of Wygnanski et al. (1992), Schneider and Goldstein (1994), and AbdulNour et al. (2000). Thirteen different turbulence models are considered for validation, which include the Standard k-ε (SKE), Realizable k-ε (RKE), shear stress transport (SST), Sarkar & So (SSA), v ² -f, Reynolds stress Model (RSM), and Spalart… More >

Abstract The dynamic balance assessment during the assembly of the coordinator gyroscope significantly impacts the guidance accuracy of precision-guided equipment. In dynamic balance debugging, reliance on rudimentary counterweight empirical formulas persists, resulting in suboptimal debugging accuracy and an increased repetition rate. To mitigate this challenge, we present a multi-head residual graph attention network (ResGAT) model, designed to predict dynamic balance counterweights with high precision. In this research, we employ graph neural networks for interaction feature extraction from assembly graph data. An SDAE-GPC model is designed for the assembly condition classification to derive graph data inputs for the ResGAT regression model, which… More >

Abstract As the number of automated guided vehicles (AGVs) within automated container terminals (ACT) continues to rise, conflicts have become more frequent. Addressing point and edge conflicts of AGVs, a multi-AGV conflict-free path planning model has been formulated to minimize the total path length of AGVs between shore bridges and yards. For larger terminal maps and complex environments, the grid method is employed to model AGVs’ road networks. An improved bounded conflict-based search (IBCBS) algorithm tailored to ACT is proposed, leveraging the binary tree principle to resolve conflicts and employing focal search to expand the search range. Comparative experiments involving 60… More >

Abstract To solve the Laplacian problems, we adopt a meshless method with the multiquadric radial basis function (MQ-RBF) as a basis whose center is distributed inside a circle with a fictitious radius. A maximal projection technique is developed to identify the optimal shape factor and fictitious radius by minimizing a merit function. A sample function is interpolated by the MQ-RBF to provide a trial coefficient vector to compute the merit function. We can quickly determine the optimal values of the parameters within a preferred rage using the golden section search algorithm. The novel method provides the optimal values of parameters and,… More >

Abstract Accurately estimating blasting vibration during rock blasting is the foundation of blasting vibration management. In this study, Tuna Swarm Optimization (TSO), Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA), and Cuckoo Search (CS) were used to optimize two hyperparameters in support vector regression (SVR). Based on these methods, three hybrid models to predict peak particle velocity (PPV) for bench blasting were developed. Eighty-eight samples were collected to establish the PPV database, eight initial blasting parameters were chosen as input parameters for the prediction model, and the PPV was the output parameter. As predictive performance evaluation indicators, the coefficient of determination (R²), root mean square… More >

Abstract Highway safety researchers focus on crash injury severity, utilizing deep learning—specifically, deep neural networks (DNN), deep convolutional neural networks (D-CNN), and deep recurrent neural networks (D-RNN)—as the preferred method for modeling accident severity. Deep learning’s strength lies in handling intricate relationships within extensive datasets, making it popular for accident severity level (ASL) prediction and classification. Despite prior success, there is a need for an efficient system recognizing ASL in diverse road conditions. To address this, we present an innovative Accident Severity Level Prediction Deep Learning (ASLP-DL) framework, incorporating DNN, D-CNN, and D-RNN models fine-tuned through iterative hyperparameter selection with Stochastic… More >

Abstract Cross-Project Defect Prediction (CPDP) is a method that utilizes historical data from other source projects to train predictive models for defect prediction in the target project. However, existing CPDP methods only consider linear correlations between features (indicators) of the source and target projects. These models are not capable of evaluating non-linear correlations between features when they exist, for example, when there are differences in data distributions between the source and target projects. As a result, the performance of such CPDP models is compromised. In this paper, this paper proposes a novel CPDP method based on Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE)… More >

Abstract Considering the stealthiness and persistence of Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs), system audit logs are leveraged in recent studies to construct system entity interaction provenance graphs to unveil threats in a host. Rule-based provenance graph APT detection approaches require elaborate rules and cannot detect unknown attacks, and existing learning-based approaches are limited by the lack of available APT attack samples or generally only perform graph-level anomaly detection, which requires lots of manual efforts to locate attack entities. This paper proposes an APT-exploited process detection approach called ThreatSniffer, which constructs the benign provenance graph from attack-free audit logs, fits normal system entity… More >
