TLE orbit determination using simplex method

Two-Line Element(TLE)datasets are the only orbital data source of Earth-orbiting space objects for many civil users for their research and applications.The datasets have uneven qualities that may affect the reliability of the propagated positions of space objects using a single TLE.The least squares approach to use multiple TLEs also suffers from the poor quality of some TLEs,and reliable error information cannot be available.This paper proposes a simplex algorithm to estimate an optimal TLE from multiple TLEs and obtain the uncertainty of each element.It is a derivative-free technique that can deal with various orbit types.Experiments have demonstrated that using the TLE estimated from the simplex method is more reliable,stable,and effective than those from the batch least squares method.As an application example,the optimal TLE and its uncertainty are used for predicting the fallen area,keeping the actual fallen site in the prediction areas.

Global convergent algorithm for the bilevel linear fractional-linear programming based on modified convex simplex method

A global convergent algorithm is proposed to solve bilevel linear fractional-linear programming,which is a special class of bilevel programming.In our algorithm,replacing the lower level problem by its dual gap equaling to zero,the bilevel linear fractional-linear programming is transformed into a traditional single level programming problem,which can be transformed into a series of linear fractional programming problem.Thus,the modified convex simplex method is used to solve the infinite linear fractional programming to obtain the global convergent solution of the original bilevel linear fractional-linear programming.Finally,an example demonstrates the feasibility of the proposed algorithm.

Numerical Optimization of Sand Casting Parameters Using the Dantzig’s Simplex Method

This study adopts the Dantzig’s Simplex method to investigate optimization of sand casting parameters for optimum service performance. Some process variables and mechanical properties were adapted into the Simplex method. Aluminium alloy samples were cast, machined and subjected to a series of mechanical tests. From the body of data collected, linear functions and constraint equations were formulated and employed in the Dantzig’s Simplex method for optimization of process parameters. The results showed that the Simplex method can be adapted for studying performance opti- mization of castings.

Using the Simplex Method for a Type of Allocation Problems

In this study we discuss the use of the simplex method to solve allocation problems whose flow matrices are doubly stochastic. Although these problems can be solved via a 0 - 1 integer programming method, H. W. Kuhn [1] suggested the use of linear programming in addition to the Hungarian method. Specifically, we use the existence theorem of the solution along with partially total unimodularity and nonnegativeness of the incidence matrix to prove that the simplex method facilitates solving these problems. We also provide insights as to how a partition including a particular unit may be obtained.

In this paper,we investigate the quadratic approximation methods.After studying the basic idea of simplex methods,we construct several new search directions by combining the local information progressively obtained during the iterates of the algorithm to form new subspaces.And the quadratic model is solved in the new subspaces.The motivation is to use the information disclosed by the former steps to construct more promising directions.For most tested problems,the number of function evaluations have been reduced obviously through our algorithms.

Estimation of mass transfer coefficient in ozone absorption by linear least square fitting and Simplex search methods

For physical ozone absorption without reaction,two parametric estimation methods,i.e.the common linear least square fitting and non-linear Simplex search methods,were applied,respectively,to determine the ozone mass transfer coefficient during absorption and both methods give almost the same mass transfer coefficient.While for chemical absorption with ozone decomposition reaction,the common linear least square fitting method is not applicable for the evaluation of ozone mass transfer coefficient due to the difficulty of model linearization for describing ozone concentration dissolved in water.The nonlinear Simplex method obtains the mass transfer coefficient by minimizing the sum of the differences between the simulated and experimental ozone concentration during the whole absorption process,without the limitation of linear relationship between the dissolved ozone concentration and absorption time during the initial stage of absorption.Comparison of the ozone concentration profiles between the simulation and experimental data demonstrates that Simplex method may determine ozone mass transfer coefficient during absorption in an accurate and high efficiency way with wide applicability.

PID Parameters for Tuning and Optimization of a Turbine EngineBased on the Simplex Search Method

A PID parameters tuning and optimization method for a turbine engine based on the simplex search method was proposed. Taking time delay of combustion and actuator into account, a simulation model of a PID control system for a turbine engine was developed. A performance index based on the integral of absolute error (IAE) was given as an objective function of optimization. In order to avoid the sensitivity that resulted from the initial values of the simplex search method, the traditional Ziegler-Nichols method was used to tune PID parameters to obtain the initial values at first, then the simplex search method was applied to optimize PID parameters for the turbine engine. Simulation results indicate that the simplex search method is a reasonable and effective method for PID controller parameters tuning and optimization.

Minimizing Complementary Pivots in a Simplex-Based Solution Method for a Quadratic Programming Problem

The paper presents an approach for avoiding and minimizing the complementary pivots in a simplex based solution method for a quadratic programming problem. The linearization of the problem is slightly changed so that the simplex or interior point methods can solve with full speed. This is a big advantage as a complementary pivot algorithm will take roughly eight times as longer time to solve a quadratic program than the full speed simplex-method solving a linear problem of the same size. The strategy of the approach is in the assumption that the solution of the quadratic programming problem is near the feasible point closest to the stationary point assuming no constraints.

Optimal pivot path of the simplex method for linear programming based on reinforcement learning

Based on the existing pivot rules,the simplex method for linear programming is not polynomial in the worst case.Therefore,the optimal pivot of the simplex method is crucial.In this paper,we propose the optimal rule to find all the shortest pivot paths of the simplex method for linear programming problems based on Monte Carlo tree search.Specifically,we first propose the SimplexPseudoTree to transfer the simplex method into tree search mode while avoiding repeated basis variables.Secondly,we propose four reinforcement learning models with two actions and two rewards to make the Monte Carlo tree search suitable for the simplex method.Thirdly,we set a new action selection criterion to ameliorate the inaccurate evaluation in the initial exploration.It is proved that when the number of vertices in the feasible region is C_(n)^(m),our method can generate all the shortest pivot paths,which is the polynomial of the number of variables.In addition,we experimentally validate that the proposed schedule can avoid unnecessary search and provide the optimal pivot path.Furthermore,this method can provide the best pivot labels for all kinds of supervised learning methods to solve linear programming problems.
