Continuities of Progressive and Mixing Algorithm for Surface Modeling and Editing

The progressive and mixing algorithm(PAMA) is a method for surface modeling and editing,which is developed for effective and flexible applications in many environments,such as computer-aided design(CAD) and computer-aided geometric design(CAGD).In this paper,the construction scheme and continuities of PAMA are discussed,which provide a mathematics analysis of PAMA.The analysis and results show that the PAMA provides a new method of surface modeling and editing with four more degrees of freedom for designers to manipulate a 3D object.

Disaster Monitoring of Satellite Image Processing Using Progressive Image Classification

The analysis of remote sensing image areas is needed for climate detec-tion and management,especially for monitoringflood disasters in critical environ-ments and applications.Satellites are mostly used to detect disasters on Earth,and they have advantages in capturing Earth images.Using the control technique,Earth images can be used to obtain detailed terrain information.Since the acquisi-tion of satellite and aerial imagery,this system has been able to detectfloods,and with increasing convenience,flood detection has become more desirable in the last few years.In this paper,a Big Data Set-based Progressive Image Classification Algorithm(PICA)system is introduced to implement an image processing tech-nique,detect disasters,and determine results with the help of the PICA,which allows disaster analysis to be extracted more effectively.The PICA is essential to overcoming strong shadows,for proper access to disaster characteristics to false positives by operators,and to false predictions that affect the impact of the disas-ter.The PICA creates tailoring and adjustments obtained from satellite images before training and post-disaster aerial image data patches.Two types of proposed PICA systems detect disasters faster and more accurately(95.6%).

Short-term Transmission Maintenance Scheduling Considering Network Topology Optimization

With the increasing penetration of renewable energy sources,transmission maintenance scheduling(TMS)will have a larger impact on the accommodation of wind power.Meanwhile,the more flexible transmission network topology owing to the network topology optimization(NTO)technique can ensure the secure and economic operation of power systems.This paper proposes a TMS model considering NTO to decrease the wind curtailment without adding control devices.The problem is formulated as a two-stage stochastic mixed-integer programming model.The first stage arranges the maintenance periods of transmission lines.The second stage optimizes the transmission network topology to minimize the maintenance cost and system operation in different wind speed scenarios.The proposed model cannot be solved efficiently with off-theshelf solvers due to the binary variables in both stages.Therefore,the progressive hedging algorithm is applied.The results on the modified IEEE RTS-79 system show that the proposed method can reduce the negative impact of transmission maintenance on wind accommodation by 65.49%,which proves its effectiveness.
