Topology optimization based on level set for a flexible multibody system modeled via ANCF

A topology optimization methodology is proposed for the flexible multibody system undergoing both large overall motion and large deformation. The system of concern is modeled via the absolute nodal coordinate formulation. The equivalent static load method is employed to transform the topology optimization of the nonlinear dynamic response of the system into a static one, and evaluated to adapt to the absolute nodal coordinate formulation by splitting the elastic deformations of the flexible components from the overall motions of those components. During the static topology optimization, the material interface is implicitly described as the zero level set of a higher-dimensional scalar function. Then, the semi-implicit level set method with the additive operator splitting algorithm is employed to solve the corresponding Hamilton-Jacobi partial differential equation. In addition, the expert evaluation method of weights based on the grey theory is utilized to define the objective function, and a modified augmented Lagrange multiplier method is proposed to treat the inequality volume constraint so as to avoid the oscillation and drift of the volume. Finally, two numerical examples are provided to validate the proposed methodology.     

Reanalysis-based space mapping method,an alternative optimization way for expensive simulation-based problems

The computational cost of evaluation in the design procedure is an essential bottleneck for simulation-based applications. To handle this problem, space mapping(SM) algorithm and reanalysis method are integrated to improve the efficiency of optimization without loss of accuracy. In the suggested method, the SM algorithm is used to construct the projection between coarse and fine spaces. In the coarse space, the reanalysis method is used to analyze finite element (FE) models. Compared with surrogate assisted evaluation, the accuracy of reanalysis method is significantly improved due to introduction of equilibrium equations. Generally, compared with other SM algorithms, coarse and fine spaces are based on solvers instead of models. Due to the high accurate reanalysis method, the reanalysis-based SM algorithm is easier to converge. Moreover, to integrate geometry and finite element models easily, a B-rep based reanalysis method is also introduced. To verify the performance of the suggested method, two examples have been carried out by using reanalysis based space mapping method. According to the results, the efficiency of optimization procedure is improved significantly.     

Variable stiffness composite material design by using support vector regression assisted efficient global optimization method

In this work, a surrogate assisted optimization method is utilized to optimize buckling loads of variable stiffness composites made by fiber steering. To improve the efficiency of optimization procedure, an expected improvement criterion is employed. Moreover, considering uncertainties of the fiber placement, a robust surrogate, least square support vector regression (LSSVR) considering empirical and structural risks is integrated with the expected improvement (EI) criterion and applied to two applications. The first case is the fiber path design of a variable stiffness plate under the compression load. The second one is the fiber path design of a variable stiffness cylinder under the bending load. According to results of the optimization, the buckling load of the variable stiffness plate has 52.63% improvement than the constant stiffness plate and 24.3% improvement than the quasi-isotropic plate. The buckling load of the variable stiffness cylinder has 40.22% improvement than the constant stiffness cylinder and 31.25% improvement than the quasi-isotropic cylinder. Furthermore, to verify the robustness of optimal design variables for the variable stiffness cylinder, the perturbed optimum design is presented and demonstrates that the results are reliable.

Coordinated control with multiple dynamic leaders for uncertain Lagrangian systems via self‐tuning adaptive distributed observer

This paper studies coordinated control of multiple Lagrangian systems with parametric uncertainties subject to external disturbances by proposing a fully distributed continuous control law based on the improved self‐tuning adaptive observer inspired by non‐identifier‐based high‐gain adaptive control technique. Under this distributed continuous control law, a group of Lagrangian systems are driven to the convex hull spanned by multiple heterogenous dynamic leaders, which can be any combination of step signals of arbitrary unknown magnitudes, ramp signals of arbitrary unknown slopes, and sinusoidal signals of arbitrary unknown amplitudes, initial phases, and any unknown frequencies. It is also worth to mention that this control law we propose, depending neither on any information of leader systems for uninformed followers, nor on external disturbances, even independent of neighbors' velocity, can achieve asymptotic tracking of multiple leaders without any additional condition instead of ensuring the ultimate boundedness of the containment error as in the literature.

结合循环平稳特征和自适应双门限检测的频谱感知算法

针对单门限能量检测算法存在虚警率高、循环平稳特征检测算法计算复杂等问题,为了降低无线信道平均捕获时间和信号检测算法复杂度,提出一种联合循环平稳特征的自适应双门限能量检测算法.该算法根据无线信道占用状态自适应调整双门限值搜索频谱信息,将无线麦克风信号接收后直接送入第1个积分电路,在双门限区域之外采用无线信号能量检测;当第1个比较器中能量累积输出低于检测下门限时,表明未检测到无线信号;当积分电路输出超过检测下门限时则启动第2个积分电路,当第2个比较器中能量累积超过检测上门限时启动第3个比较器,超过同步门限判断虚警状态;在双门限区域之间采用循环平稳特征检测快速、准确地捕获无线麦克风信号,并合理设置保护频带,让非授权用户充分利用保护频带之外的频谱资源.仿真结果表明,文中算法有效地提高了无线认知网络的无线信号检测概率和频谱感知精度.

Efficient parallel implementation of Ewald summation in molecular dynamics simulations on multi-core platforms

We present a multi-step computation method to implement the Ewald summation for long-range electrostatic interactions in molecular dynamic simulations on a multi-core machine. Our methodology is based on the OpenMP programming model. It partitions computations of real-space summation among threads so that the global force of a single particle cannot be modified by more than one thread simultaneously. It requires neither a private copy of the force array for each thread nor an inspector at runtime. Compared with some other methods that can parallelise reduction operations on a force-array, our method achieves relatively higher speedups and lower L2 cache miss and bus utilisation ratios.
