Aerial Refueling Scheduling Plan Generation Method For Multi-Position Task Management *, Jiachen Hu, Huanyu Li
Journal of System Simulation
Abstract: An aerial refueling scheduling plan generation method based on hierarchical hybrid strategy is proposed to address the high complexity of aerial refueling scheduling for multi-position tasks and the difficulty for traditional manual operations or single-position-oriented solutions to manage tasks effectively. A multi-level strategic framework based on fixed-rule heuristics, rolling horizon optimization, and steady-state cyclic scheduling is developed and integrated into a hierarchical hybrid strategy to balance scheduling efficiency, optimization capability, and emergency response capability. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method effectively generates feasible refueling scheduling plans, producing viable plans under both undisturbed rotational operations and disturbed dynamic support …

Flight Test Mission Planning Method Based On Adaptive Large Neighborhood Search, Luofu Wu, Xinyang Wu, Lunhao Ju, Guopeng Song, Rui Wang, Jiang Jiang
Journal of System Simulation
Abstract: Flight test mission planning is critical to aircraft performance evaluation, but traditional manual methods often struggle with extensive solution spaces and complex constraints. This paper constructs an overall flight test mission planning model and introduces a flight test planning algorithm (FTPA) based on adaptive large neighborhood search. FTPA utilizes Kahn topological sorting to generate an initial test-item priority sequence, which is then decoded into an initial solution, and jointly schedules flight test items and test aircraft within the adaptive large neighborhood search framework. A comparison with the CPLEX solver shows that the FTPA algorithm yields solutions with a gap …

Journal of System Simulation
Abstract: An improved NSGA-II solution framework based on multi-tree encoding is proposed to address the problems of high modeling complexity under large-scale scenarios and the tendency of traditional algorithms to fall into local optima. Based on multi-tree modeling, the complex mixed-integer programming problem is transformed into a multi-tree configuration optimization problem, thus reducing the constraint handling difficulty and improving the search efficiency of the solution space. Multi-tree crossover and mutation operators as well as the calculation method for objective functions are designed. A large neighborhood search (LNS) strategy is introduced, and the global exploration and local exploitation capabilities of the …

High-Fidelity Dynamic Digital Twin Modeling Method For Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor, He Lai, Jinquan Yang, Cong Peng, Bei Li
Journal of System Simulation
Abstract: Conventional mechanism models often suffer from model mismatch due to the absence of nonlinear mechanical damping representation and the dynamic drift of electromagnetic parameters. To address this issue, a high-fidelity dynamic digital twin modeling method for permanent magnet synchronous motors is proposed. In the static mechanism modeling dimension, a friction energy decoupling strategy is proposed, which fundamentally overcomes the inherent conflict between steady-state accuracy and transient response from a physical logic perspective. For dynamic model updating, a distributed cascaded sensing architecture based on the multi-innovation recursive least squares and extended Kalman filter (MIRLS-MIEKF) algorithms is proposed. This architecture enables …

A Performance-Based Indicator Framework For Assessing Innovative Materials In Modular Emergency Shelters, Riham Nady Faragallah, M. S. Refaey, Naglaa M. Yussuf, Riham S. Hassan
HBRC Journal
In recent years, the increasing intensity of disasters, conflicts and mass displacement has amplified the need for emergency shelters that are rapidly deployable, structurally safe, and thermally comfortable, particularly when delivered through prefabricated modular systems. The recent development of innovative materials—including smart, recycled, bio-based, and 3D-printed composites—has demonstrated considerable potential for improving emergency shelter performance. However, existing studies primarily evaluate these materials individually, with limited efforts to integrate them into a comprehensive performance-based decision framework for modular emergency shelters. This research aims to develop a performance-based indicator framework for evaluating and selecting innovative materials to enhance the safety, comfort, durability, …

Two-Stage Stochastic Programming For Resource Allocation In Mobile Underwater Acoustic Networks, Sadaf Vahabli, Iftekhar Ahmad, Quoc Viet Phung, Daryoush Habibi
Research outputs 2022 to 2026
Underwater Acoustic Networks (UANs) enable long-range communication for a range of applications. However, UANs are severely limited by scarce acoustic spectrum, which is shared with marine animals and can lead to disruptive interference, contributing to anthropogenic ocean noise. In addition, the underwater environment is highly dynamic, where: marine-animal presence is uncertain, channel conditions fluctuate, and Doppler effects degrade communication reliability. Prior UAN studies have addressed these challenges separately, despite their combined effect on resource allocation. Accordingly, this paper proposes a two-stage Scenario-based Stochastic Programming (SSP) framework with a hybrid risk approach that jointly treats these challenges within a single resource …

Research outputs 2022 to 2026
The rapid development of photovoltaic (PV) systems has made them an important component of the global clean energy strategy. However, the intermittency and non-linear characteristics of photovoltaic (PV) output remain major challenges for stable renewable energy utilization. This study proposes an adaptive improved particle swarm optimization (IPSO)-based maximum power point tracking (MPPT) strategy integrated with hybrid energy storage coordination for photovoltaic systems. The IPSO introduces adaptive inertia adjustment, velocity clamping, and stagnation reinitialization, which improve the convergence robustness under dynamic irradiance and temperature conditions. The algorithm was benchmarked against Perturb & Observe (P&O), Incremental Conductance (INC), and standard PSO using …

Electrocatalytic Oxidation Of Ethylene Glycol To Glycolic Acid: From Mechanism And Catalyst Design To Emerging Neutral Electrolyte Systems, Man Zhang, Xue Li, Xin-Yu Peng, Lin Wang, Wen-Wen Chen, Yao-Yue Yang
Journal of Electrochemistry
Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) waste represents both an environmental burden and a loss of carbon resources. Alkaline depolymerization of PET yields terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol (EG). Electrocatalytic oxidation of EG to glycolic acid (GA), the monomer of biodegradable polyglycolic acid (PGA), offers a sustainable route driven by renewable electricity. However, the ethylene glycol oxidation reaction (EGOR) involves competing pathways toward C2 products (GA and oxalic acid) and C1 products (formic acid and CO2), making selective GA production a central challenge. This review provides a comprehensive overview of recent progress in selective EG-to-GA electrooxidation from catalyst design, mechanistic understanding, …

Regularization-Based Crystallite Size Distribution Analysis Of Pt/C Catalysts From X-Ray Diffraction, Cheng-Long Ma, Wei-Yu Shi, Zhong-Jun Hou
Journal of Electrochemistry
Accurate determination of the platinum crystallite size distribution in carbon-supported platinum (Pt/C) catalysts is critical for evaluating both the initial performance and long-term durability of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). Conventional characterization approaches—including transmission electron microscopy (TEM), small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), and the Scherrer equation—are limited by restricted statistical sampling, sensitivity to support interference, or the inability to resolve the full breadth of the size distribution. In this work, we present a regularization-based inversion framework that extracts the volume-weighted crystallite size distribution directly from X-ray diffraction (XRD) line profiles, without requiring any a priori assumption regarding the functional form …

Explosive volcanic eruptions can inject large amounts of ash into the atmosphere. These suspended particles pose hazards to aircraft, so a better understanding of the ash residence time and transport distance is needed. Fine particles combine to form larger aggregates, altering their settling behavior. Ash aggregation is influenced by liquid bonding, electrostatic forces, and preferential concentration driven by turbulence. We examine particle aggregation through controlled, low-humidity experiments at similar particle-fluid scaling to conditions near a volcanic vent. Particle-laden jets used compressed air containing three types of particles at controlled mass loadings: hollow glass spheres (∼10 μm diameter), solid nickel spheres …

Beyond Probability: An Analytical Exploration Of Fuzzy And Neutrosophic Paradigms In Binomial Acceptance Sampling, Uma G, Vela Muruga Anurahini P
Neutrosophic Systems with Applications
Acceptance sampling plans are widely used in Statistical Quality Control to determine the acceptance or rejection of production lots based on sample inspection. Classical sampling plans under the binomial distribution assume precise parameter values, which may not adequately represent uncertainty, vagueness, and indeterminacy encountered in practical inspection environments. This review summarizes acceptance probability formulations for single and double sampling plans developed using fuzzy and neutrosophic logic under the binomial distribution. The focus is on studies that model the fraction defective and related parameters as fuzzy or neutrosophic numbers, allowing imprecise and indeterminate quality information to be incorporated into sampling decisions. …

Reliability-Calibrated Q-Rung Orthopair Neutrosophic Soft Ranking Under Partial Observability: An Auditable Industrial-Process Benchmark, Nagham Ahmed Abdelmegeed, Zeshan Aslam Khan
Neutrosophic Systems with Applications
Multi-criteria decision systems often interpret disagreement among criteria as evidence that some criteria are unreliable. This is problematic when the disagreement reflects a genuine operational trade-off. We develop a reliability-and-admissibility-calibrated q-rung orthopair neutrosophic soft ranking procedure (RAC-qRON) that distinguishes recorded evidence quality from the direction of criterion preferences. An explicitly bounded interval for each alternative–criterion observation is mapped to truth, indeterminacy and falsity memberships, with an admissibility proof for every integer rung q ≥ 1. Criterion weights are adjusted according to recorded information coverage rather than cross-criterion correlation, and a fixed-reference ideal-distance calculation produces an auditable rank. The method is …

Risk Prioritization Of ``Digital Drug'' And Consumer Neurostimulation Modalities: A Reproducible Interval-Valued Fermatean Fuzzy Entropy–Topsis Framework, Rawan Emad El-Saadany, Ahmed Samy, Mohamed M. Abdelhafeez, Mahmoud M. Ismail
Neutrosophic Systems with Applications
Consumer audio and multisensory stimulation technologies are increasingly accessible through streaming platforms, mobile applications, and immersive media. The expression digital drug is sometimes used for binaural-beat content intended to alter subjective states, but the term is a consumer/cultural label and does not imply pharmacological equivalence. Risk prioritization in this area is difficult because evidence is heterogeneous, several relevant criteria are qualitative, and judgments may be imprecise rather than point-valued. This paper develops a transparent interval-valued Fermatean fuzzy (IVFF) group decision framework that combines interval-preserving aggregation, Shannon entropy weighting, and TOPSIS for prioritizing digital drug risk scenarios under uncertainty. The method …

Risk-Based Cybersecurity Threat Prioritization In Digital Twin-Enabled Cyber-Physical Systems, Nada Mohamed, Alshaimaa A. Tantawy, Ahmed M. Abdelmouty
Neutrosophic Systems with Applications
Digital Twin (DT)-enabled cyber-physical systems (CPS) face cybersecurity risks due to their complex connections and high levels of interdependence. Traditional methods, for assessing risk often fail to rank these threats. This is especially true when expert opinions include ambiguity, uncertainty or unclear information. A Type 2 Neutrosophic Entropy– Measurement of Alternatives and Ranking according to COmpromise Solution (Entropy- MARCOS) framework for cybersecurity threat prioritization in DT-enabled CPS is proposed in this paper. The uncertainty and indeterminacy present in expert evaluations are represented by Type 2 Neutrosophic Numbers (T2NNs). While the MARCOS technique is used to assess and rank cybersecurity threats …

Context-Regulated Q-Neutrosophic Soft Model Selection Under Input Perturbation: Evidence From Three Classification Benchmarks, Poom Kumam, Supak Phiangsungnoen
Neutrosophic Systems with Applications
Selecting a classifier using a single average metric can conceal instability across validation splits, poor lower-tail behavior, and sensitivity to input perturbations. This study formulates a context-regulated Q-neutrosophic soft model-selection procedure with two fixed evaluation conditions. For each classifier and performance criterion, mean attainment (truth), across-split dispersion (indeterminacy), and the complement of a lower empirical quantile (falsity) form an auditable three-component descriptor. A bounded lower-context regulator aggregates their penalized utilities; monotonicity and perturbation bounds follow directly from its convex representation. Four fixed classifiers are compared using five benefit-oriented criteria, three repetitions of stratified five-fold cross-validation, and paired test-feature perturbations. Three …
