Learning-enhanced differential evolution for numerical optimization

Differential evolution (DE) is a simple and powerful population-based search algorithm, successfully used in various scientific and engineering fields. However, DE is not free from the problems of stagnation and premature convergence. Hence, designing more effective search strategies to enhance the performance of DE is one of the most salient and active topics. This paper proposes a new method, called learning-enhanced DE (LeDE) that promotes individuals to exchange information systematically. Distinct from the existing DE variants, LeDE adopts a novel learning strategy, namely clustering-based learning strategy (CLS). In CLS, there are two levels of learning strategies, intra-cluster learning strategy and inter-cluster learning strategy. They are adopted for exchanging information within the same cluster and between different clusters, respectively. Experimental studies over 23 benchmark functions show that LeDE significantly outperforms the conventional DE. Compared with other clustering-based DE algorithms, LeDE can obtain better solutions. In addition, LeDE is also shown to be significantly better than or at least comparable to several state-of-art DE variants as well as some other evolutionary algorithms.     

Surface characterization of 6H-SiC (0001) substrates in indentation and abrasive machining

Surface characterization of 6H-SiC (0001) substrates in indentation and abrasive machining was carried out to investigate microfracture, residual damage, and surface roughness associated with material removal and surface generation. Brittle versus plastic deformation was studied using Vickers indention and nano-indentation. To characterize the abrasive machining response, the 6H-SiC (0001) substrates were ground using diamond wheels with grit sizes of 25, 15 and 7 μm, and then polished with diamond suspensions of 3 and 0.05 μm. It is found that in indentation, there was a scale effect for brittle versus plastic deformation in 6H-SiC substrates. Also, in grinding, the scales of fracture and surface roughness of the substrates decreased with a decrease in diamond grit size. However, in polishing, a reduction in grit size of diamond suspensions gave no significant improvement in surface roughness. Furthermore, the results showed that fracture-free 6H-SiC (0001) surfaces were generated in polishing with the existence of the residual crystal defects, which were associated with the origin of defects in single crystal growth.

为了研究电缆接头在不同尺寸空气楔形间隙下的运行性能,本文采用有限元计算方法,设计35kV电缆接头精细化模型,计算电缆接头在发生单相短路故障时的电场和温度分布.结果表明,电缆接头内的空气间隙电场强度集中,绝缘层存在劣化隐患.随着空气间隙长度的增加,气隙内最大电场强度逐渐增大;随着空气间隙深度的增大,气隙内最大电场强度呈先减小后增大的变化规律;气隙内热量的积聚会进一步造成绝缘层的老化.最后,根据现场实际缺陷案例,提出风险预控和防治措施.

垂向多层发育的致密油藏常采用缝网压裂进行开采,从而改善储层渗透率,提高油井产量。为此建立直井多层缝网压裂不稳定渗流数学模型,压裂后各层划分为人工裂缝区、改造区和未改造区。绘制分析Blasingame产量递减典型曲线,曲线分为7个流动阶段,总裂缝长度一定时,裂缝半长短的储层流体渗流率先到达未改造区,流体渗流阻力大,Blasingame曲线靠下;总改造体积一定时,各层改造体积差异越大,Blasingame曲线越靠下。用所建立的模型,对实测生产资料进行解释,获得各层裂缝半长、改造区渗透率等相关地层参数,该模型对进行多层缝网压裂直井产量分析具有指导意义。

新型快挥发带电清洗剂对支柱复合绝缘子的溶胀效应及改进

直流硅橡胶绝缘子积污后对其绝缘性能和使用寿命有重要影响,一般通过带电清洗剂进行清洗,而在带电清洗剂下的溶胀效应带来的不利影响是有待解决的关键问题.对1、2号两种带电清洗剂挥发速率、硅橡胶在不同带电清洗剂清洗前后的溶胀性以及憎水性的变化进行了试验研究,并探讨了相应的机制.结果表明:1、2号带电清洗剂在25℃时的挥发速率分别为1095.78 g/(h·m2)和108.01 g/(h·m2);硅橡胶溶胀度随时间的增加而增大,溶胀10 h后达到饱和,饱和后的硅橡胶溶胀指数分别为55％和130％;1号带电清洗剂会削弱硅橡胶的憎水性,经过10 min浸泡,接触角下降了14％,2号带电清洗剂能增强硅橡胶的憎水性,经相同时间浸泡,接触角上升了6％,因而挥发性优良的带电清洗剂可以降低溶胀对硅橡胶绝缘子的不利影响.
