    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.138, No.1, pp. 793-812, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2023.028175

    Abstract In this paper, a stable and adaptive sliding mode control (SMC) method for induction motors is introduced. Determining the parameters of this system has been one of the existing challenges. To solve this challenge, a new self-tuning type-2 fuzzy neural network calculates and updates the control system parameters with a fast mechanism. According to the dynamic changes of the system, in addition to the parameters of the SMC, the parameters of the type-2 fuzzy neural network are also updated online. The conditions for guaranteeing the convergence and stability of the control system are provided. In the simulation part, in order… More >

    Feng Yang1, Zhong Wu2,*, Xiaoyan Teng1

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.138, No.1, pp. 719-738, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2023.028699

    Abstract The low efficiency and high cost of fresh agricultural product terminal distribution directly restrict the operation of the entire supply network. To reduce costs and optimize the distribution network, we construct a mixed integer programming model that comprehensively considers to minimize fixed, transportation, fresh-keeping, time, carbon emissions, and performance incentive costs. We analyzed the performance of traditional rider distribution and robot distribution modes in detail. In addition, the uncertainty of the actual market demand poses a huge threat to the stability of the terminal distribution network. In order to resist uncertain interference, we further extend the model to a robust… More > Graphic Abstract

    A Data-Fusion Method for Uncertainty Quantification of Mechanical Property of Bi-Modulus Materials: An Example of Graphite

    Liang Zhang1,*, Zigang He1

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.27, No.2, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.09713

    Abstract The different elastic properties of tension and compression are obvious in many engineering materials, especially new materials. Materials with this characteristic, such as graphite, ceramics, and composite materials, are called bi-modulus materials. Their mechanical properties such as Young’s modulus have randomness in tension and compression due to different porosity, microstructure, etc. To calibrate the mechanical properties of bi-modulus materials by bridging FEM simulation results and scarce experimental data, the paper presents a data-fusion computational method. The FEM simulation is implemented based on Parametric Variational Principle (PVP), while the experimental result is obtained by Digital Image Correlation (DIC) technology. To deal… More >

    Ming Li1,*, Cairen Furifu1, Chengyang Ge2, Yunping Zheng1, Shunfu Lin2, Ronghui Liu2

    Energy Engineering, Vol.120, No.8, pp. 1775-1801, 2023, DOI:10.32604/ee.2023.027215

    Abstract As an effective carrier of integrated clean energy, the microgrid has attracted wide attention. The randomness of renewable energies such as wind and solar power output brings a significant cost and impact on the economics and reliability of microgrids. This paper proposes an optimization scheme based on the distributionally robust optimization (DRO) model for a microgrid considering solar-wind correlation. Firstly, scenarios of wind and solar power output scenarios are generated based on non-parametric kernel density estimation and the Frank-Copula function; then the generated scenario results are reduced by K-means clustering; finally, the probability confidence interval of scenario distribution is constrained… More >

    A Three-Dimensional Model for the Formation Pressure in Wellbores under Uncertainty

    Jiawei Zhang*, Qing Wang, Hongchun Huang, Haige Wang, Guodong Ji, Meng Cui, Hongyuan Zhang

    FDMP-Fluid Dynamics & Materials Processing, Vol.19, No.9, pp. 2305-2314, 2023, DOI:10.32604/fdmp.2023.026304

    Abstract Formation pressure is the key parameter for the analysis of wellbore safety. With increasing drilling depth, however, the behavior of this variable becomes increasingly complex. In this work, a 3D model of the formation pressure under uncertainty is presented. Moreover a relevant algorithm is elaborated. First, the logging data of regional key drilling wells are collected and a one-dimensional formation pressure profile along the well depth is determined. Then, a 3D model of regional formation pressure of the hierarchical group layer is defined by using the Kriging interpolation algorithm relying on a support vector machine (SVM) and the formation pressure… More >

    Karim Gasmi1,*, Lassaad Ben Ammar2,, Hmoud Elshammari4, Fadwa Yahya2

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.75, No.2, pp. 2557-2573, 2023, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2023.033270

    Abstract Convolution neural networks (CNNs) have proven to be effective clinical imaging methods. This study highlighted some of the key issues within these systems. It is difficult to train these systems in a limited clinical image databases, and many publications present strategies including such learning algorithm. Furthermore, these patterns are known for making a highly reliable prognosis. In addition, normalization of volume and losses of dice have been used effectively to accelerate and stabilize the training. Furthermore, these systems are improperly regulated, resulting in more confident ratings for correct and incorrect classification, which are inaccurate and difficult to understand.

    Reliability-Based Topology Optimization of Fail-Safe Structures Using Moving Morphable Bars

    Xuan Wang1,2, Yuankun Shi2, Van-Nam Hoang3, Zeng Meng2,*, Kai Long4,*, Yuesheng Wang1

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.136, No.3, pp. 3173-3195, 2023, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2023.025501

    Abstract This paper proposes an effective reliability design optimization method for fail-safe topology optimization (FSTO) considering uncertainty based on the moving morphable bars method to establish the ideal balance between cost and robustness, reliability and structural safety. To this end, a performance measure approach (PMA)-based double-loop optimization algorithm is developed to minimize the relative volume percentage while achieving the reliability criterion. To ensure the compliance value of the worst failure case can better approximate the quantified design requirement, a p-norm constraint approach with correction parameter is introduced. Finally, the significance of accounting for uncertainty in the fail-safe design is illustrated by… More > Graphic Abstract

    Structural Interval Reliability Algorithm Based on Bernstein Polynomials and Evidence Theory

    Xu Zhang1, Jianchao Ni2, Juxi Hu3,*, Weisi Chen4

    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.46, No.2, pp. 1947-1960, 2023, DOI:10.32604/csse.2023.035118

    Abstract Structural reliability is an important method to measure the safety performance of structures under the influence of uncertain factors. Traditional structural reliability analysis methods often convert the limit state function to the polynomial form to measure whether the structure is invalid. The uncertain parameters mainly exist in the form of intervals. This method requires a lot of calculation and is often difficult to achieve efficiently. In order to solve this problem, this paper proposes an interval variable multivariate polynomial algorithm based on Bernstein polynomials and evidence theory to solve the structural reliability problem with cognitive uncertainty. Based on the non-probabilistic… More >
