ABSTRACT Dancing Viennese Waltz in one of the great historic ballrooms is an important and indispensable part of Austrian culture. This dance, while being tradition, is quite difficult to perform, especially if the dance-floor is crowded. There, it is additionally challenging to avoid collisions with other dancers, as they pace through the ballroom at a high velocity. Dependent on the dancer’s skill level, spinning speed can be adjusted to succeed. This paper presents an agent-based waltz model which makes it possible to investigate the influence of heterogeneously skilled dancers on the movement smoothness of the dancing crowd. Herein, each agent represents one dancing couple in reality and it moves on the dance-floor by a rotatory motion with periodically switching rotation axes. Interaction between agents occurs via inelastic collisions. By performing a couple of case studies, we analyse and quantify the widespread rumour that the presence of only a few unskilled dancers disturbs the flow of the dancing crowd.

ABSTRACT A prognostic approach based on a MISO (multiple inputs and single output) fuzzy logic model was introduced to estimate the pressure difference across a gas turbine (GT) filter house in a heavy-duty power generation system. For modelling and simulation of clogging of the GT filter house, nine real-time process variables (ambient temperature, humidity, ambient pressure, GT produced load, inlet guide vane position, airflow rate, wind speed, wind direction and PM10 dust concentration) were fuzzified using a graphical user interface within the framework of an artificial intelligence-based methodology. The results revealed that the proposed fuzzy logic model produced very small deviations and showed a superior predictive performance than the conventional multiple regression methodology, with a very high determination coefficient of 0.974. A complicated dynamic process, such as clogging phenomenonin heavy-duty GT system, was successfully modelled due to high capability of the fuzzy logic-based prognostic approach in capturing the nonlinear interactions.

ABSTRACT A new adaptive kernel principal component analysis (KPCA) for non-linear discrete system control is proposed. The proposed approach can be treated as a new proposition for data pre-processing techniques. Indeed, the input vector of neural network controller is pre-processed by the KPCA method. Then, the obtained reduced neural network controller is applied in the indirect adaptive control. The influence of the input data pre-processing on the accuracy of neural network controller results is discussed by using numerical examples of the cases of time-varying parameters of single-input single-output non-linear discrete system and multi-input multi-output system. It is concluded that, using the KPCA method, a significant reduction in the control error and the identification error is obtained. The lowest mean squared error and mean absolute error are shown that the KPCA neural network with the sigmoid kernel function is the best.

ABSTRACT The scope of output-only/blind identification is restricted to stochastic/statistical processes, but for the first time in this study, the detectability conditions for general output-only subspace identification are investigated. This aids the range of input sources to be extended in a much realistic manner, beyond the only stochastic inputs. For this purpose, the subspace framework is assigned to make a connection between the output signal contents and the LTI system order. A few substantial hypotheses and algebraic statements are propounded affirming the sufficiency of the genuine output sequences for the identification purpose. This can be perceived as the cornerstone of state-space model reconstruction. In order to consolidate the notions according to reality, several examples are studied and examined for different input classes with stochastic disturbance.

ABSTRACT This paper introduces the Selective Generalized Traveling Salesman Problem (SGTSP). In SGTSP, the goal is to determine the maximum profitable tour within the given threshold of the tour’s duration, which consists of a subset of clusters and a subset of nodes in each cluster visited on the tour. This problem is a combination of cluster and node selection and determining the shortest path between the selected nodes. We propose eight mixed integer programming (MIP) formulations for SGTSP. All of the given MIP formulations are completely new, which is one of the major novelties of the study. The performance of the proposed formulations is evaluated on a set of test instances by conducting 4608 experimental runs. Overall, 4138 out of 4608 (~90%) test instances were solved optimally by using all formulations.

ABSTRACT Mathematical modelling and computer simulations are important tools in the field of cardiac electrophysiology. High computational costs of complex models make them difficult to apply in large-scale simulations like tissue. Therefore, model reduction are of particular importance in heart studies. In this paper, we introduce a technique for simplification of ventricular cell(VC) complex models. By using this technique, starting with a complex model of human VC including 17state variables, we reduce the number of state variables to two. Our simplified model is compared with the original one via several electrophysiological features and computational efficiency. Results show that the reduced model has acceptable behaviours in single cell and one-dimensional simulation, moreover, is 55 times faster than the original one. As the presented method does not depend on the reference model, it may be applied to every cardiac cell models or each complex excitable dynamical systems with the same dynamics as VC.

ABSTRACT A coupled dynamic modelling of the flexible guiding hoisting system is established, which includes the transverse-longitudinal-coupled vibration and the rotational vibration. Substituting vibrational energy of the system into Hamilton principle and applying the dynamic constraint, a distributed parameter mathematical model of the multi-rope system is derived. It is governed by coupled partial differential equations and ordinary differential equations (PDEs-ODEs), where the dynamic constraint in the form of an unknown moving force is the only connection between the hoisting conveyance and the guiding ropes. Based on Galerkin method, the dynamic response of the system is validated by numerical calculation and ADAMS simulation. Besides, an absorber with artificial intelligence optimization is proposed to reduce system vibration. The simulation result has demonstrated that a hoisting conveyance resonance can be observed when the external disturbance frequency is close to the system natural frequencies. Moreover, a vibration absorber can effectively diminish the resonant peaks of the first three orders of the guiding rope.

ABSTRACT We consider the design and control problem of concentric tubes used in stereotactic neurosurgery. The goal is to optimally reach a configuration of the cannula linking an entry point on the skullcap to a pre-specified region inside the brain. Key issues related to this task are the mechanical behaviour of the cannula and the topography of the brain. We formulate an optimal control problem in order to determine a feasible path while minimizing brain damage caused by missing follow-the-leader behaviour. Numerical results show the potential of the proposed approach.

ABSTRACT This paper presents two inventory models for ameliorating items under crisp and interval environments. In these models, three-parameter Weibull distribution is considered to represent both the amelioration and deterioration rates. In crisp, an inventory model is formulated for ameliorating item with fixed values of different inventory parameters. Due to uncertainty, these parameters may not be fixed. In this context, another inventory model with interval valued parameters is developed. Also, demand is dependent on the selling price and advertisement frequency of the product. The corresponding profit maximization problem has been developed. For solving the problem, different variants of quantum behaved particle swarm optimization technique (QPSO) are applied. To validate the proposed models, two numerical examples are considered and solved. The results are compared for different variants of QPSO techniques. Finally, graphical sensitivity analyses are presented to study the impact of several system parameters on cycle length, initial stock level along with average profit for both the models.

ABSTRACT This paper considers the problem of dynamic decision-making for an inventory model for deteriorating items under price inflation and permissible delay in payment. In this paper, we adopt an iso-elastic and selling price dependent demand function to model the finite time horizon inventory for deteriorating items. The stocks deteriorate physically at a constant fraction of the on-hand inventory. The objective of this paper is to determine the optimal retail price, number of replenishments, and the cycle time under two different credit periods so that the net profit is maximized. We discuss the optimization properties and develop an algorithm for solving the problem based on dynamic programming techniques. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the validity of the optimal control policy, and sensitivity analysis on major parameters is performed to provide more managerial insights into deteriorating items.
