A new method for prediction of Gurney velocity of explosives is introduced in which energy output is correlated with the heat of detonation, the number of moles of gaseous products of detonation per gram of explosive and the average molecular weight of gaseous products. It is assumed that the CHNO explosive reacts to form products composed of N2 , CO, H2O, CO2, H2,O2 and C(s) as determined by the oxygen balance of the unreacted compound. Good agreement is obtained between measured and calculated values of Gurney velocity as compared to previous correlations which assumed the reaction products to consist of N2 , H2O, CO2 and either C(s) or O2. 相似文献
The present work aimed to evaluate and optimize the design of an artificial neural network (ANN) combined with an optimization algorithm of genetic algorithm (GA) for the calculation of slope stability safety factors (SF) in a pure cohesive slope. To make datasets of training and testing for the developed predictive models, 630 finite element limit equilibrium (FELE) analyses were performed. Similar to many artificial intelligence-based solutions, the database was involved in 189 testing datasets (e.g., 30% of the entire database) and 441 training datasets; for example, a range of 70% of the total database. Moreover, variables of multilayer perceptron (MLP) algorithm (for example, number of nodes in any hidden layer) and the algorithm of GA like population size was optimized by utilizing a series of trial and error process. The parameters in input, which were used in the analysis, consist of slope angle (β), setback distance ratio (b/B), applied stresses on the slope (Fy) and undrained shear strength of the cohesive soil (Cu) where the output was taken SF. The obtained network outputs for both datasets from MLP and GA-MLP models are evaluated according to many statistical indices. A total of 72 MLP trial and error (e.g., parameter study) the optimal architecture of 4 × 8 × 1 were determined for the MLP structure. Both proposed techniques result in a proper performance; however, according to the statistical indices, the GA–MLP model can somewhat accomplish the least mean square error (MSE) when compared to MLP. In an optimized GA–MLP network, coefficient of determination (R2) and root mean square error (RMSE) values of (0.975, and 0.097) and (0.969, and 0.107) were found, respectively, to both of the normalized training and testing datasets.

This paper presents a proposal for multiobjective Invasive Weed Optimization (IWO) based on nondominated sorting of the solutions. IWO is an ecologically inspired stochastic optimization algorithm which has shown successful results for global optimization. In the present work, performance of the proposed nondominated sorting IWO (NSIWO) algorithm is evaluated through a number of well-known benchmarks for multiobjective optimization. The simulation results of the test problems show that this algorithm is comparable with other multiobjective evolutionary algorithms and is also capable of finding better spread of solutions in some cases. Next, the proposed algorithm is employed to study the Pareto improvement model in two complex electricity markets. First, the Pareto improvement solution set is obtained for a three-player oligopolistic electricity market with a nonlinear demand function. Then, the IEEE 30-bus power system with transmission constraints is considered, and the Pareto improvement solutions are found for the model with deterministic cost functions. In addition, NSIWO algorithm is used to analyze this system with stochastic cost data in a risk management problem which maximizes the expected total profit but minimizes the profit risk in the market. 相似文献
