Synthesizing Sum and Difference Patterns with Low Complexity Feeding Network by Sharing Element Excitations by Jafar Ramadhan Mohammed

“…At the same time, the feed networks of such antennas must be as simple as possible for efficient implementation. To achieve these two goals, an iterative fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm is used to synthesize sum and difference patterns with the main focus on obtaining a maximum allowable sharing percentage in the element excitations. …”

A Feature Weighted Fuzzy Clustering Algorithm Based on Multistrategy Grey Wolf Optimization by Yongli Liu, Zhonghui Wang, Hao Chao

“…This algorithm cannot only improve clustering accuracy by considering the different importance of features and assigning each feature different weight but also can easily obtain the global optimal solution and avoid the impact of the initialization process by implementing multistrategy grey wolf optimization. This multistrategy optimization includes three components, a population diversity initialization strategy, a nonlinear adjustment strategy of the convergence factor, and a generalized opposition-based learning strategy. …”

Simulation on Water Diversion Regulation Effect in the Central Ditch of Hengqin New District,Zhuhai by LONG Xiaofei, WU Yaju, FAN Qunfang, ZHU Song, WANG Hua, ZHU Jinhe

“…The tidal river network area of the Pearl River Delta uses the ebb-and-flow differences between tidal level of the outer river and water level of the inland river to divert clear water for regulation.This is an effective way to improve the water environment of the tidal river network.The central ditch of Hengqin New District is in the tidal river network area of the Pearl River Delta.To improve the water environment of the central ditch in Hengqin New District,this study builds a one-dimensional hydrodynamic mathematical model of water quality and investigates the hydrodynamic regulation scheme for improving the regional water environment.Then,the water exchange effects of the original regulation scheme and the optimized regulation scheme are calculated and analyzed.The simulation results show that the optimized regulation scheme increases the regional flow rate by 0.20 m/s,shortens the half-exchange period by 101.5 h,and increases the water exchange rate by a factor of 1.1,which demonstrates a great improvement effect on the regional water environment.The results can be used as a reference for the implementation of the water diversion regulation scheme in the tidal river network area.…”
