The corrosion behaviour of-SiC in V2O5 melt has been investigated at elevated temperatures. The corrosion products on the surface of the specimen are removed using HF. The morphologies are also examined. From the observations of bubble formation in the scale and the temperature dependence of the corrosion rate, a kinetic mechanism is proposed. Based on the consistency of the plotted data with the proposed equation and high values of surface reaction rate constant, a diffusion controlling process has been developed. 相似文献

Surrogate model-assisted multi-objective genetic algorithms (MOGA) show great potential in solving engineering design problems since they can save computational cost by reducing the calls of expensive simulations. In this paper, a two-stage adaptive multi-fidelity surrogate (MFS) model-assisted MOGA (AMFS-MOGA) is developed to further relieve their computational burden. In the warm-up stage, a preliminary Pareto frontier is obtained relying only on the data from the low-fidelity (LF) model. In the second stage, an initial MFS model is constructed based on the data from both LF and high-fidelity (HF) models at the samples, which are selected from the preliminary Pareto set according to the crowding distance in the objective space. Then the fitness values of individuals are evaluated using the MFS model, which is adaptively updated according to two developed strategies, an individual-based updating strategy and a generation-based updating strategy. The former considers the prediction uncertainty from the MFS model, while the latter takes the discrete degree of the population into consideration. The effectiveness and merits of the proposed AMFS-MOGA approach are illustrated using three benchmark tests and the design optimization of a stiffened cylindrical shell. The comparisons between the proposed AMFS-MOGA approach and some existing approaches considering the quality of the obtained Pareto frontiers and computational efficiency are made. The results show that the proposed AMFS-MOGA method can obtain Pareto frontiers comparable to that obtained by the MOGA with HF model, while significantly reducing the number of evaluations of the expensive HF model.
When wireless sensor networks (WSN) are deployed in the vegetable greenhouse with dynamic connectivity and interference environment, it is necessary to increase the node transmit power to ensure the communication quality, which leads to serious network interference. To offset the negative impact, the transmit power of other nodes must also be increased. The result is that the network becomes worse and worse, and node energy is wasted a lot. Taking into account the irregular connection range in the cucumber greenhouse WSN, we measured the transmission characteristics of wireless signals under the 2.4 Ghz operating frequency. For improving network layout in the greenhouse, a semi-empirical prediction model of signal loss is then studied based on the measured data. Compared with other models, the average relative error of this semi-empirical signal loss model is only 2.3%. Finally, by combining the improved network topology algorithm and tabu search, this paper studies a greenhouse WSN layout that can reduce path loss, save energy, and ensure communication quality. Given the limitation of node-degree constraint in traditional network layout algorithms, the improved algorithm applies the forwarding constraint to balance network energy consumption and constructs asymmetric network communication links. Experimental results show that this research can realize the energy consumption optimization of WSN layout in the greenhouse. 相似文献
This research develops a typology of atmospherics that contains user-identified modules and modular options for personalizing 3D virtual fashion stores. A content analysis of 46 focus group discussions (n = 170) was conducted to understand the user’s perspective for personalizing 3D virtual fashion store atmospherics. Based on three atmospheric categories (pathfinding assistant, environment, and the manner of product presentation), 17 modules and 207 modular options were identified for personalizing 3D virtual stores. This research pioneers the development of an atmospherics typology for personalizing 3D virtual shopping environments as a persuasive selling tool in the emerging field of 3D virtual reality (VR) retailing. 相似文献
