An Optimization Model for Shell Plate Seam Landing Using Minimum Manufacturing Cost and a Solution by Genetic Algorithm by Ho Rim Pae, Min Hyok Jon, Chol Jun Pak

“…In this paper, a new optimization model and its solution method for the landing of seams and butts (for convenience, seam and butt are simply called seam) on the ship hull surface are proposed in order to improve the shipbuilding efficiency. The minimum manufacturing cost of ship hull shell plates (SHSPs) is the objective function, the rules and requirements for the seam position and the size of a single shell plate are the constraints, and the position and shape of the seam are the design variables. …”

A method integrating a non-stationary random field for constrained inversion of CSAMT data by Qianwei DAI, Luyao GUO, Yun WU, Zhexian XIONG, Dan DUAN, Zhonglin BAO, Hongfei WU, Fengyun HAO

“…ObjectiveThe inversion of controlled-source audio-frequency magnetotelluric (CSAMT) data remains challenging due to two key issues: computational efficiency and resolution. To tackle these two issues, especially the over-smoothing effect caused by traditional regularization methods in estimating complex geological structures, this study proposed an improved regularization inversion method to reflect the spatial distribution characteristics of subsurface physical property parameters more accurately. …”

Numerical Simulation of Heat Transfer in Channel with a Longitudinal Pressure Gradient by Tsynaeva A.A.

“…The most significant results obtained in the work are as follows: it was revealed that the use of holes, their geometry and location have a significant effect on the heat transfer intensity in a channel with a longitudinal pressure gradient; the design of the original horseshoe-shaped dimples has been developed, the use of which allows to intensify heat transfer by 13 ... 47% depending on the Reynolds number when they are arranged in three rows in the corridor order compared to staggered hemispherical dimples; when comparing the efficiency of using the developed dimples with hemispherical holes installed in three rows in the corridor order, the heat transfer increased by 21 ... 51% when the Reynolds number changed from 3000 to 15000.…”
