Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: This paper researches on a continuous berth and quay crane allocation problem for low carbon container terminal. Considering the constraints of stochastic arrival time and limited truck transportation ability, a multi-objective nonlinear mixed integer programming model is established to minimize carbon emissions and average delay time. An efficient non-dominate sorting genetic algorithm II (ENSGA-II) is designed to deal with this problem. According to the characteristics of the problem, encoding rule and decoding rule based on rolling-horizon simulation, PPX crossover operator with elite selection, multi constraints mutation operator and repair operator are adopted. The results of several simulation experiments …


Modeling And Simulation Of The Crosstalk On Aircraft Arinc429 Data Bus, Xudong Shi, Ruowen Wang, Jialin Wang, Hongxu Zhao Jan 2019

Modeling And Simulation Of The Crosstalk On Aircraft Arinc429 Data Bus, Xudong Shi, Ruowen Wang, Jialin Wang, Hongxu Zhao

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: Based on the theory of multi-conductor transmission line, the crosstalk between a single cable and a UTP (unshielded twisted pairs) cable was studied. The MATLAB and CST were employed to do the theoretical calculation and modeling respectively, and the comparison result proved the validity and accuracy of the proposed model. Based on the UTP model, the shielding layer was used to build the STP(shielded twisted-wire pairs) model according to the ARINC429 specification, and the crosstalk which caused by a large voltage transient happening on the adjacent power line on the aircraft was further analyzed. The distance and length of …


Design And Implementation Of A Stand-Alone Tool For Metabolic Simulations, Milad Ghiasi Rad Dec 2017

Design And Implementation Of A Stand-Alone Tool For Metabolic Simulations, Milad Ghiasi Rad

School of Computing: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

In this thesis, we present the design and implementation of a stand-alone tool for metabolic simulations. This system is able to integrate custom-built SBML models along with external user’s input information and produces the estimation of any reactants participating in the chain of the reactions in the provided model, e.g., ATP, Glucose, Insulin, for the given duration using numerical analysis and simulations. This tool offers the food intake arguments in the calculations to consider the personalized metabolic characteristics in the simulations. The tool has also been generalized to take into consideration of temporal genomic information and be flexible for simulation …


Electrodynamical Modeling For Light Transport Simulation, Michael G. Saunders May 2017

Electrodynamical Modeling For Light Transport Simulation, Michael G. Saunders

Undergraduate Honors Theses

Modernity in the computer graphics community is characterized by a burgeoning interest in physically based rendering techniques. That is to say that mathematical reasoning from first principles is widely preferred to ad hoc, approximate reasoning in blind pursuit of photorealism. Thereby, the purpose of our research is to investigate the efficacy of explicit electrodynamical modeling by means of the generalized Jones vector given by Azzam [1] and the generalized Jones matrix given by Ortega-Quijano & Arce-Diego [2] in the context of stochastic light transport simulation for computer graphics. To augment the status quo path tracing framework with such a modeling …


Exploring Population Change Detection By Monitoring Effective Number Of Breeders, Brian Trethewey Jan 2017

Exploring Population Change Detection By Monitoring Effective Number Of Breeders, Brian Trethewey

Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers

Detecting if a population is in decline is an important objective for biologists and conservationists who are monitoring threatened populations. As genetic methods improve effective population size (Ne) and effective number of breeders (Nb) continue to gain popularity as a way to monitor species. Using simulated populations and linkage disequilibrium, we explored detecting population decline through Nb in age structured populations. Through comparisons of sensitivity (1 – false negatives) and specificity (1- false positives) over 1000 replicates, we explored how factors such as starting Nb, number of SNPs, number of individuals …

Application Of Computer Modeling And Simulation Techniques For Optimization Of Factory Floor Operations In Small To Medium- Sized Businesses, Brian P. Romano Jun 2016

Application Of Computer Modeling And Simulation Techniques For Optimization Of Factory Floor Operations In Small To Medium- Sized Businesses, Brian P. Romano

Theses and Dissertations

The rationale and motive for this thesis was to prove that no matter the size of a company and its particular value stream, the application of applied computer science principles with a reliance on computer modeling and simulation onto the factory floor process improves efficiencies and throughput through the reduction of downtime and/or process waiting. This thesis research specifically emphasized small businesses of between $2 and $20 million and was purposely limited to factory floor production processes and utilized standardized applied computer science techniques including simulation and modeling, microprocessor based factory floor intelligence devices. The results of this applied technology …

Physics Faculty Publications

Future machines such as the Electron Ion Collider (MEIC), linac-ring machines (eRHIC) or LHeC are particularly sensitive to beam-beam effects. This is the limiting factor for long-term stability and high luminosity reach. The complexity of the non-linear dynamics makes it challenging to perform such simulations typically requiring millions of turns. Until recently, most of the methods have involved using linear approximations and/or tracking for a limited number of turns. We have developed a framework which exploits a massively parallel Graphical Processing Units (GPU) architecture to allow for tracking millions of turns in a sympletic way up to an arbitrary order. …


Oyster Sustainability Modeling As A Public Resource, Nathan A. Cooper Aug 2013

Oyster Sustainability Modeling As A Public Resource, Nathan A. Cooper

LSU New Orleans Theses and Dissertations

A simulation algorithm based on biological references points proposed by Powell and Klink (2007) is implemented for predicting the total allowable catch of eastern oysters (Crassostrea virginica) from Louisiana’s coast. The model accepts initial per-square-meter shell mass and oyster size distributions as input. Fishing effort is provided as fractions removed of each resource for each month of the season. The model outputs the expected remaining shell mass and harvests of sack and seed oysters after discrete fishing months. Oyster mortality credits the shell budget, while fishing fractions debit oyster and shell resources. Surviving oysters grow larger along a …
