    LSDA-APF: A Local Obstacle Avoidance Algorithm for Unmanned Surface Vehicles Based on 5G Communication Environment

    Xiaoli Li, Tongtong Jiao#, Jinfeng Ma, Dongxing Duan, Shengbin Liang#,*

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.138, No.1, pp. 595-617, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2023.029367

    Abstract In view of the complex marine environment of navigation, especially in the case of multiple static and dynamic obstacles, the traditional obstacle avoidance algorithms applied to unmanned surface vehicles (USV) are prone to fall into the trap of local optimization. Therefore, this paper proposes an improved artificial potential field (APF) algorithm, which uses 5G communication technology to communicate between the USV and the control center. The algorithm introduces the USV discrimination mechanism to avoid the USV falling into local optimization when the USV encounter different obstacles in different scenarios. Considering the various scenarios between the USV and other dynamic obstacles… More > Graphic Abstract

    IRS Assisted UAV Communications against Proactive Eavesdropping in Mobile Edge Computing Networks

    Ying Zhang1,*, Weiming Niu2, Leibing Yan1

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.138, No.1, pp. 885-902, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2023.029234

    Abstract In this paper, we consider mobile edge computing (MEC) networks against proactive eavesdropping. To maximize the transmission rate, IRS assisted UAV communications are applied. We take the joint design of the trajectory of UAV, the transmitting beamforming of users, and the phase shift matrix of IRS. The original problem is strong non-convex and difficult to solve. We first propose two basic modes of the proactive eavesdropper, and obtain the closed-form solution for the boundary conditions of the two modes. Then we transform the original problem into an equivalent one and propose an alternating optimization (AO) based method to obtain a… More >

    Resource Allocation for IRS Assisted mmWave Wireless Powered Sensor Networks with User Cooperation

    Yonghui Lin1, Zhengyu Zhu2,*

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.138, No.1, pp. 663-677, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2023.028584

    Abstract In this paper, we investigate IRS-aided user cooperation (UC) scheme in millimeter wave (mmWave) wireless-powered sensor networks (WPSN), where two single-antenna users are wireless powered in the wireless energy transfer (WET) phase first and then cooperatively transmit information to a hybrid access point (AP) in the wireless information transmission (WIT) phase, following which the IRS is deployed to enhance the system performance of the WET and WIT. We maximized the weighted sum-rate problem by jointly optimizing the transmit time slots, power allocations, and the phase shifts of the IRS. Due to the non-convexity of the original problem, a semidefinite programming… More >

    Numerical Simulation of Multiphase Flow in Subsurface Reservoirs: Existing Challenges and New Treatments

    Shuyu Sun1,*

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.27, No.2, pp. 1-2, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.09671

    Abstract Two or multiple phases commonly occur as fluid mixture in petroleum industry, where oil, gas and water are often produced and transported together. As a result, petroleum reservoir engineers spent great efforts in the development and production of oil and gas reservoirs by conducting and interpolating the simulation of multiphase flows in porous geological formation. Meanwhile, environmental scientists use subsurface flow and transport models to investigate and compare for example various schemes to inject and store CO2 in subsurface geological formations, such as depleted reservoirs and deep saline aquifers. In this work, we first present an introduction of numerical simulation… More >

    Self-Driving Behavior and Pinning Effect of Droplets on GrapheneCovered Functional Textured Surfaces

    Fujian Zhang1, Xiang Gao1, Zhongqiang Zhang1,2,*

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.26, No.4, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.09169

    Abstract Biological features such as the bumps on the back of desert beetles and the spikes of cacti enable the directional transport of water droplets, creating conditions for their survival in nature. Inspired by the interesting natural phenomenon, a novel design of nanopillared surface with a gradient density of structural pillar matrix covered by a monolayer graphene is proposed to realize ultrafast self-driving of water droplets. The droplet can move spontaneously at ultrahigh speed of 75.7 m/s (272.52 km/h) from sparsest to densest regions of pillars while a wettability gradient is created by the gradient distribution density of pillar matrix relying… More >

    Gas Transport Through Nanochannels: Surface Effect and Molecular Geometry Effect

    JianHao Qian1, HengAn Wu1, FengChao Wang1,*

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.26, No.4, pp. 1-2, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.09144

    Abstract Gas transport through nanochannels is ubiquitous in nature and also plays an important role in industry. The gas flow in this regime can be described by the Knudsen theory, which assumes that molecules diffusely reflect on the confining walls [1]. However, with the emergence of low dimensional carbon-based materials such as graphene and carbon nanotubes, it has been evidenced that this assumption might not hold for some atomically smooth surfaces, resulting in an anomalous enhancement of gas flux [2]. Moreover, in Knudsen theory, gas molecules are usually treated as mass points and distinguished solely by molecular weight, which cannot interpret… More >

    Frequency-Multiplexed Acoustic Metasurfaces Based on Multiobjective Topology Optimization

    Haoyi Cheng1, Jingwen Guo1, Wenjing Ye1.*, Xin Zhang1

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.26, No.2, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.09237

    Abstract With their thin thicknesses and unprecedent wave manipulation capabilities, acoustic metasurfaces have a great potential to be applied in a wide range of applications. Most existing metasurfaces are passive devices. Although passive devices are easy to implement and consume no energy, one major shortcoming of passive devices is their fixed and limited functionality, which greatly limits their application scope. To increase the functionalities of a metasurface and yet still maintain its passivity, we propose to use the wave frequency as a tuning freedom to realize multiple functionalities in one single passive device. Specifically, the passive metasurface will be designed to… More >

    TPMS-Based Topology Optimization Design with Multiple Materials via MMC Method

    Sinuo Zhang1, Daicong Da2, Yingjun Wang1,3,*

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.26, No.2, pp. 1-2, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.09085

    Abstract Topology optimization (TO) designs involving multiple materials suffer either difficult interface modeling or finding physically meaningful transition domains with an accurate structural representation. Simple interpolation approaches are usually used in multi-material designs to represent the overlapped regions of different materials, which cannot solve either of these problems. In this paper, a moving morphable component (MMC)-based TO is developed to overcome this issue by leveraging the triply periodic minimal surfaces (TPMS). The TMPS-based architecture will serve as the infilling microstructure to accurately represent the overlapped domains of different materials. A TPMS function interpolation scheme is used to generate new microstructures for… More >

    An Automatic Post-Processing Procedure for Isogeometric Topology Optimization Results

    Yuhao Yang1, Yingjun Wang1,*

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.26, No.2, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.09068

    Abstract In the intelligent structural optimization, designers can obtain a high-performance design scheme automatically with the help of topology optimization (TO). Since computer aided design (CAD) and computer aided engineering (CAE) models have different geometric representations in TO, the optimized results must be reconstructed to generate CAD models, which is complicated and time-consuming. To address this issue, the isogeometric analysis (IGA) is employed in TO to replace the finite element method (FEM), and such TO is termed as isogeometric TO (ITO). ITO is an advanced TO method with high efficiency and accuracy. It uses the same non-uniform rational B-spline (NURBS) basis… More >
