In order to define the relationship among the experiment data, the nonlinear regressive curve of cutting tool temperature must be constructed based on the data. This paper proposes the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm for estimating the parameters such a curve. The PSO algorithm is an evolutional method based on a very simple concept. Comparison of PSO results with those of GA and LS methods showed that the PSO algorithm is more effective for estimating the parameters of the above curve.展开更多

The results show that the model was able to capture the essential features of these path variations. We used one simulation of the model as the reference state and investigated the effects of errors in model parameters on the prediction of the transition to the Kuroshio large meander (KLM) state using the conditional nonlinear optimal parameter perturbation (CNOP-P) method. Because of their relatively large uncertainties, three model parameters were considered: the interracial friction coefficient, the wind-stress amplitude, and the lateral friction coefficient. We determined the CNOP-Ps optimized for each of these three parameters independently, and we optimized all three parameters simultaneously using the Spectral Projected Gradient 2 (SPG2) algorithm. Similarly, the impacts caused by errors in initial conditions were examined using the conditional nonlinear optimal initial perturbation (CNOP-I) method. Both the CNOP-I and CNOP-Ps can result in significant prediction errors of the KLM over a lead time of 240 days. But the prediction error caused by CNOP-I is greater than that caused by CNOP-P. The results of this study indicate not only that initial condition errors have greater effects on the prediction of the KLM than errors in model parameters but also that the latter cannot be ignored. Hence, to enhance the forecast skill of the KLM in this model, the initial conditions should first be improved, the model parameters should use the best possible estimates.展开更多

In our approach, the linear quadratic optimal control model, which is adding the adjusted parameters into the model used, is employed. The aim of applying this model is to take into account the differences between the real plant and the model used during the calculation procedure. In doing so, an expanded optimal control problem is introduced such that system optimization and parameter estimation are mutually interactive. Accordingly, the optimality conditions are derived after the Hamiltonian function is defined. Specifically, the modified model-based optimal control problem is resulted. Here, the conjugate gradient approach is used to solve the modified model-based optimal control problem, where the optimal solution of the model used is calculated repeatedly, in turn, to update the adjusted parameters on each iteration step. When the convergence is achieved, the iterative solution approaches to the correct solution of the original optimal control problem, in spite of model-reality differences. For illustration, an economic growth problem is solved by using the algorithm proposed. The results obtained demonstrate the efficiency of the algorithm proposed. In conclusion, the applicability of the algorithm proposed is highly recommended.展开更多

文摘2017年5月7日,在弱天气尺度强迫下,广州发生了暖区特大暴雨,局地发展迅速,降水强度极端,多家业务模式出现了漏报情况。为了探究此次降水过程模式预报的不确定性,采用条件非线性最优参数扰动(Conditional Nonlinear Optimal Perturbation related to Parameters,CNOP-P)方法筛选出最能体现中小尺度系统非线性误差增长特征的关键物理参数,以此构造CNOP-P-RP模式扰动方案,并基于CMA-Meso模式进行对流尺度集合预报试验,最后探究了CNOP-P关键参数影响局地对流发生、发展不同阶段的物理机理。结果显示,不同降水阶段的CNOP-P敏感参数主要与垂直扩散、云雨自动转换或其他水成物向雨滴的转换有关。与业务上常用的随机物理倾向扰动(Stochastically Perturbed Parameterization Tendencies,SPPT)方案相比,在本次降水过程中,基于CNOP-P-RP方案构造的集合预报试验具有更高的降水和地面要素的概率预报技巧,集合预报系统可靠性也占优。进一步分析发现,垂直扩散不确定性导致的山前温度梯度和地面冷池的变化在对流触发和暴雨发展中起重要作用。7日00—04时(北京时,下同),花都强降水中心附近垂直扩散的增强使热量、动量和水汽的垂直输送加强,由此造成的雪、霰粒子融化增多是降水量增大的主要原因,说明该阶段雨滴的形成虽以云水的凝结碰并为主,但冰相粒子的作用不容忽视;7日04—08时,随着水汽输送和上升运动增强,更活跃的暖雨过程主导了增城强降水中心降水量的增大。该研究初步证明CNOP-P-RP方案在刻画对流尺度模式不确定性方面的可行性,可为华南暖区暴雨预报的改进提供一定参考。
