Dimension-down iterative algorithm for the mixed transportation network design problem

An optimal dimension-down iterative algorithm （DDIA） is proposed for solving a mixed （continuous/ discrete） transportation network design problem （MNDP）, which is generally expressed as a mathematical programming with equilibrium constraints （MPEC）. The upper level of the MNDP aims to optimize the network performance via both the expansion of existing links and the addition of new candidate links, whereas the lower level is a traditional Wardrop user equilibrium （UE） model. The idea of the proposed DDIA is to reduce the dimensions of the problem. A group of variables （discrete/continuous） are fixed to altemately optimize another group of variables （continuous/discrete）. Some continuous network design problems （CNDPs） and discrete network design problems （DNDPs） are solved repeatedly until the optimal solution is obtained. A numerical example is given to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed algorithm.

Discounted Iterative Adaptive Critic Designs With Novel Stability Analysis for Tracking Control

The core task of tracking control is to make the controlled plant track a desired trajectory.The traditional performance index used in previous studies cannot eliminate completely the tracking error as the number of time steps increases.In this paper,a new cost function is introduced to develop the value-iteration-based adaptive critic framework to solve the tracking control problem.Unlike the regulator problem,the iterative value function of tracking control problem cannot be regarded as a Lyapunov function.A novel stability analysis method is developed to guarantee that the tracking error converges to zero.The discounted iterative scheme under the new cost function for the special case of linear systems is elaborated.Finally,the tracking performance of the present scheme is demonstrated by numerical results and compared with those of the traditional approaches.

AN ITERATIVE ALGORITHM FOR OPTIMAL DESIGN OF NON-FREQUENCY-SELECTIVE FIR DIGITAL FILTERS

This paper proposes a novel iterative algorithm for optimal design of non-frequency-selective Finite Impulse Response(FIR) digital filters based on the windowing method.Different from the traditional optimization concept of adjusting the window or the filter order in the windowing design of an FIR digital filter,the key idea of the algorithm is minimizing the approximation error by succes-sively modifying the design result through an iterative procedure under the condition of a fixed window length.In the iterative procedure,the known deviation of the designed frequency response in each iteration from the ideal frequency response is used as a reference for the next iteration.Because the approximation error can be specified variably,the algorithm is applicable for the design of FIR digital filters with different technical requirements in the frequency domain.A design example is employed to illustrate the efficiency of the algorithm.

Iterative Learning Controller Design for CNC Machine Tools

The repetitive processing and large quantity of single product represented by 3C products are urgently needed.However,for current processing operations,previous processing data have not been used in the optimization of control input.In order to utilize previous processing data to facilitate the next process and avoid adverse effects caused by repetitive disturbance and noise,the idea of iterative learning was introduced to improve the accuracy of machining.On the control level,since it is difficult to obtain high accuracy by traditional feedback control when faced with complex trajectories,an open⁃loop iterative learning controller and a position loop feedback controller were introduced,which worked fast with good convergence effects.Aiming at reducing the influence of accidental error,step type iterative learning was put forward.The iteration mechanism was stopped when the accuracy converged to the allowable range so as to reduce computational complexity,store the current iterative part of the control input,and make constant value compensation.However,in simulation and experiment,it was found that after superposition of the iterative learning controller,the phenomenon of partial divergence of the system tracking error occurred.Therefore,the speed and acceleration characteristics of input trajectories in time domain and frequency domain were analyzed.High⁃frequency noise was introduced in frequency domain,which was found to be the cause of the abovementioned phenomenon,and high⁃frequency components were filtered to solve the problem.To further improve the accuracy of convergence and avoid filtering effective high⁃frequency information in some area,a switchable filter based on the analysis of the frequency characteristics of input trajectory was proposed.Through SIMULINK simulation and dSPACE experimental verification,it was proved that the iterative learning controller of modifying controlled quantity and filter based iterative learning control method are effective.

Remanufacturing closed-loop supply chain network design based on genetic particle swarm optimization algorithm

As the huge computation and easily trapped local optimum in remanufacturing closed-loop supply chain network (RCSCN) design considered, a genetic particle swarm optimization algorithm was proposed. The total cost of closed-loop supply chain was selected as fitness function, and a unique and tidy coding mode was adopted in the proposed algorithm. Then, some mutation and crossover operators were introduced to achieve discrete optimization of RCSCN structure. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can gain global optimal solution with good convergent performance and rapidity. The computing speed is only 22.16 s, which is shorter than those of the other optimization algorithms.

A PD-Type State-Dependent Riccati Equation With Iterative Learning Augmentation for Mechanical Systems

This work proposes a novel proportional-derivative(PD)-type state-dependent Riccati equation(SDRE)approach with iterative learning control(ILC)augmentation.On the one hand,the PD-type control gains could adopt many useful available criteria and tools of conventional PD controllers.On the other hand,the SDRE adds nonlinear and optimality characteristics to the controller,i.e.,increasing the stability margins.These advantages with the ILC correction part deliver a precise control law with the capability of error reduction by learning.The SDRE provides a symmetric-positive-definite distributed nonlinear suboptimal gain K(x)for the control input law u=–R–1(x)BT(x)K(x)x.The sub-blocks of the overall gain R–1(x)BT(x)K(x),are not necessarily symmetric positive definite.A new design is proposed to transform the optimal gain into two symmetric-positive-definite gains like PD-type controllers as u=–KSP(x)e–KSD(x)?.The new form allows us to analytically prove the stability of the proposed learning-based controller for mechanical systems;and presents guaranteed uniform boundedness in finite-time between learning loops.The symmetric PD-type controller is also developed for the state-dependent differential Riccati equation(SDDRE)to manipulate the final time.The SDDRE expresses a differential equation with a final boundary condition,which imposes a constraint on time that could be used for finitetime control.So,the availability of PD-type finite-time control is an asset for enhancing the conventional classical linear controllers with this tool.The learning rules benefit from the gradient descent method for both regulation and tracking cases.One of the advantages of this approach is a guaranteed-stability even from the first loop of learning.A mechanical manipulator,as an illustrative example,was simulated for both regulation and tracking problems.Successful experimental validation was done to show the capability of the system in practice by the implementation of the proposed method on a variable-pitch rotor benchmark.

Novel Mapping Design Criterion for BICM-ID with Square QAM Constellations

Mapping design criteria of bit-interleaved coded modulation with iterative decoding (BICM-ID) with square 16QAM are analyzed. Three of the existing criteria are analyzed and compared with each other. Through the comparison, two main characters of the mapping design criteria are found. They are the harmonic mean of the minimum squared Euclidean distance and the average of Hamming distances with the nearest Euclidean distance. Based on these two characters, a novel mapping design criterion is proposed and a label mapping named mixed mapping is searched according to it. Simulation results show that mixed mapping performs better than the other mappings in BICM-ID system.

An iterated local coordinate-exchange algorithm for constructing experimental designs for multi-dimensional constrained spaces

Iterated local search(ILS)is used to construct the optimal experimental designs for multi-dimensional constrained spaces,in which the inner loop is based on the stochastic coordinate-exchange(SCE)algorithm.Every time a local optimal solution is found by the SCE algorithm,the perturbation operator is applied to it,and then a new solution is explored in the areas where the exchange of coordinates may produce improvement,so as to retain the features and attributes of the current optimal solution and avoid the defects of random restart.We implement the iterated local coordinate-exchange algorithm for experimental designs in the multi-dimensional constrained spaces.In addition,sensitivity analysis was conducted to analyze the impacts of the parameters on the performance of the proposed algorithm.Also we compared the performance of the proposed algorithm to the SCE algorithm using the random restart strategy.The analysis shows that the proposed algorithm is better than the SCE algorithm in terms of efficiency and quality,especially in the experimental designs for high-dimensional constrained space.

Literature Review on Network Design Problems in Closed Loop and Reverse Supply Chains

The productivity of an organization is very much affected by non-value adding activity like logistics, which moves the resources from suppliers to factory, raw materials/semi-finished items within the factory and finished goods from factory to customers via a designated distribution channel called as forward logistics. In some cases, parts of the products such as automobiles, computers, cameras, mobile phones, washing machines, refrigerators, garments, footwear and empty glass bottles of beverages, etc. will be brought back to the factories as a product recovery strategy through reverse logistics network which is integrated in a sustainable closed loop supply chain network. So, it is highly essential to optimize the movement of the items in the reverse logistics network. This paper gives a comprehensive review of literature of the design of networks for the reverse logistics as well as for the reverse logistics coupled with forward logistics. The contributions of the researchers are classified into nine categories based on the methods used to design the logistics network.

Primary Design and Analysis of Feeder for ITER Poloidal Field

An electromagnetic （EM） analytic model for the PF feeder, applied to ITER and needed to convey the cryogenic supply and electrical power to the PF magnets, was built up. The magnetic flux density and the EM force under the worst conditions with the maximum working current in each coil were then calculated. Based on the EM analysis and theoretical calculation, the relationship between the busbar stress and the distance of neighbouring busbar supports was obtained, which provides an approach to optimize the design of the busbar supports. In order to check the feasibility of the PF feeder structure, a finite element model was built up and the ANSYS code was applied to analyze the stress and displacement. The numerical results show that the stress of the PF feeder is within the allowable limits and the structure is feasible.

Policy Iteration for Optimal Control of Discrete-Time Time-Varying Nonlinear Systems

Aimed at infinite horizon optimal control problems of discrete time-varying nonlinear systems,in this paper,a new iterative adaptive dynamic programming algorithm,which is the discrete-time time-varying policy iteration(DTTV)algorithm,is developed.The iterative control law is designed to update the iterative value function which approximates the index function of optimal performance.The admissibility of the iterative control law is analyzed.The results show that the iterative value function is non-increasingly convergent to the Bellman-equation optimal solution.To implement the algorithm,neural networks are employed and a new implementation structure is established,which avoids solving the generalized Bellman equation in each iteration.Finally,the optimal control laws for torsional pendulum and inverted pendulum systems are obtained by using the DTTV policy iteration algorithm,where the mass and pendulum bar length are permitted to be time-varying parameters.The effectiveness of the developed method is illustrated by numerical results and comparisons.
