However, traditional high-fidelity-based lightweight methods are time-consuming due to the complex structures of the hood, and the lightweight results heavily rely on engineering experiences. To this end, an improved adaptive marine predator algorithm (AMPA) is proposed to solve this problem. Compared to the original marine predator algorithm (MPA), the proposed AMPA adapts to optimization problems through three enhancements, including chaotic theory-based initialization, a mixed search strategy, and dynamic partitioning of iteration phases. Experimental comparisons of AMPA, MPA, and eight state-of-the-art algorithms are conducted on IEEE CEC2017 benchmark functions. AMPA outperforms the others in both 30- and 50-dimensional experiments. Friedman and Wilcoxon’s sign-rank tests further confirm AMPA’s superiority and statistical significance. An implicit parametric model of the hood is generated, and the critical design variables are determined through global sensitivity analysis to realize hood lightweight. The stacking method is employed to construct a surrogate meta-model of the hood to accelerate the optimization efficiency of the vehicle hood. Utilizing the meta-model and the proposed AMPA, the hood mass is reduced by 7.43% while all six static and dynamic stiffness metrics are enhanced. The effectiveness of the proposed optimization method is validated through finite element analysis.","PeriodicalId":48611,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Computational Design and Engineering","volume":"6 1","pages":"1219-1249"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2023-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87167189","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The modeling of such highly nonlinear systems is a challenge for traditional time/space-separation-based methods since they employ linear methods for the model reduction and spatiotemporal reconstruction, which may lead to an inefficient application of the nonlinear spatial structure features represented by the spatial basis functions. To overcome this problem, a novel spatiotemporal modeling framework composed of nonlinear temporal domain transformation and nonlinear spatiotemporal domain reconstruction is proposed in this paper. Firstly, local nonlinear dimension reduction based on the locally linear embedding technique is utilized to perform nonlinear temporal domain transformation of the spatiotemporal output of nonlinear DPSs. In this step, the original spatiotemporal data can be directly transformed into low-order time coefficients. Then, the extreme learning machine (ELM) method is utilized to establish a temporal model. Finally, through the spatiotemporal domain reconstruction based on the kernel-based ELM method, the prediction of the temporal dynamics obtained from the temporal model can be reconstructed back to the spatiotemporal output. The effectiveness and performance of the proposed method are demonstrated in experiments on the thermal processes of a snap curing oven and a lithium-ion battery.","PeriodicalId":48611,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Computational Design and Engineering","volume":"31 1","pages":"1267-1279"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2023-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85521105","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This approach enables the determination of a minimum distance initial reference route and the creation of a 2D navigational graph for efficient route optimization. We effectively store and process complex terrain information by transforming the GEBCO uniform grid into a quadtree structure. By utilizing a nearest neighbour search algorithm, edges are connected between adjacent ocean nodes, facilitating the generation of a quadtree graph. Applying Dijkstra’s algorithm to the quadtree graph, we derive the shortest initial route and construct a visibility graph based on the waypoints. This results in a simplified reference route with reduced search distance, allowing for more efficient navigation. For each waypoint along the reference route, a boundary is defined angled at 90 degrees to the left and right, based on the waypoint’s reference bearing. A line segment formed by the waypoint and both boundaries is defined as a navigational stage. A navigational graph is defined by connecting adjacent stages. Employing a 3DDP method on the navigational graph, and incorporating weather forecasting data, including wind, wave, and currents, we search for a route that minimizes fuel oil consumption with estimated time of arrival restrictions. Our approach is tested on several shipping routes, demonstrating a fuel consumption reduction compared to other voyage optimization routes. This integrated algorithm offers a potential solution for tackling complex voyage optimization problems in marine environments while considering various weather factors.","PeriodicalId":48611,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Computational Design and Engineering","volume":"39 1","pages":"1185-1203"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2023-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87866451","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purely data-driven appearance-based gaze estimation methods may suffer from a lack of interpretability, which prevents their applicability to pervasive scenarios. In this study, a feature fusion method with multi-level information elements is proposed to improve the comprehensive performance of the appearance-based gaze estimation model. The multi-level feature extraction and expression are carried out from the originally captured images, and a multi-level information element matrix is established. A gaze conduction principle is formulated for reasonably fusing information elements from the established matrix. According to the gaze conduction principle along with the matrix, a multi-level information element fusion (MIEF) model for gaze estimation is proposed. Then, several input modes and network structures of the MIEF model are designed, and a series of grouping experiments are carried out on a small-scale sub-dataset. Furthermore, the optimized input modes and network structures of the MIEF model are selected for training and testing on the whole dataset to verify and compare model performance. Experimental results show that optimizing the feature combination in the input control module and fine-tuning the computational architecture in the feature extraction module can improve the performance of the gaze estimation model, which would enable the reduction of the model by incorporating the critical features and thus improve the performance and accessibility of the method. Compared with the reference baseline, the optimized model based on the proposed feature fusion method of multi-level information elements can achieve efficient training and improve the test accuracy in the verification experiment. The average error is 1.63 cm on phones on the GazeCapture dataset, which achieves comparable accuracy with state-of-the-art methods.","PeriodicalId":48611,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Computational Design and Engineering","volume":"361 1","pages":"1080-1109"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2023-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74167412","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The approach involves locating stereoscopic 3D virtual objects into a real off-site panorama, supporting spatial remodel design decision-making through realistic comparisons. Previous studies have shown that in the design process, end-user engagement promotes the quality and satisfaction of design solutions. Immersive media such as virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) have increasingly been used as communication tools for user engagement in design, as they provide intuitive and realistic user experiences, particularly in comparing design plans. However, the dichotomous affordance of current VR and AR devices is limited in satisfying both the sense of realism and immersion that are essential for user engagement. To overcome this shortcoming, we propose an AVR-based design visualization approach that integrates the advantages of both media technologies to provide a high sense of realism and immersion off-site, responding to location and environmental stimuli, such as lighting, material, and other factors. To achieve this goal, we used 360-degree panorama data of the target space as a design visualization background, with content immersion experienced through VR hardware. Additionally, we developed software to demonstrate the actual use of the AVR-based approach, and various visualization-purposed file formats can be exported automatically using this software. The software supports the authoring of 360-degree spatial visualization videos for realistic design comparisons, which can be easily accessed by end-users using a head-mounted display or smartphone, even in real-time. We performed a demonstration of this approach using an actual remodel design project for the university library lobby, and this paper shows the usability and applicability of the AVR-based approach for user engagement.","PeriodicalId":48611,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Computational Design and Engineering","volume":"18 1","pages":"1047-1059"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2023-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73686431","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Each design method contributes to finding a desirable crease pattern, e.g., one with superior engineering properties, by manipulating parameters. On the other hand, to continuously deform other crease patterns, it is necessary to recreate it once with such a parametric method; however, this inverse problem is less studied. This paper is basic research to solve this problem and to allow parametric deformation of flat-foldable crease patterns. Given crease patterns are interpreted as networks consisting of twist-folding patterns that can be generated by an existing parametric method named Twist-based design method. Then, by manipulating the parameters, the crease pattern is deformed. Importantly, any flat-foldable crease pattern having no crease line connecting two points on the boundary can be targeted, and it is locally guaranteed that deformed crease patterns have non-intersecting crease lines and are flat-foldable. The proposed method contributes to increased origami variations by deformations of existing crease patterns.","PeriodicalId":48611,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Computational Design and Engineering","volume":"28 1","pages":"979-991"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2023-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81511670","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the growing demand for customized tubular parts has led to a significant increase in the cost of conventional tube bending processes, as they can only process tubes of a specific diameter. To this end, this paper proposes a variable diameter die (VDD) scheme which can bend tubes with a specific range of diameters. To investigate the formability of VDD-processed tubes for practical VDD applications, an accurate and reliable prediction method of cross-sectional distortion is imperative. Hence, we pioneer a novel intelligent model based on quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization (QPSO) optimized back-propagation neural network (BPNN) to predict a rational cross-sectional distortion characterization index: average distortion rate (ADR). The adaptive adjustment of coefficients and the Gaussian distributed random vector are introduced to QPSO, which balance the search and enhance the diversity of the population, respectively. For further improvement in optimization performance, the informed initialization strategy is applied to QPSO. The efficiency of the proposed reinforced QPSO (RQPSO) optimized BPNN model is evaluated by comparing the results with those of the BPNN, BPNN with Xavier initialization, several different PSO variants optimized BPNN models and variants of popular machine learning models. The results indicated the superiority of RQPSO over other methods in terms of the coefficient of determination (${R}^2$), variance account for (VAF), root mean square error (MSE), mean absolute error (MAE), and standard deviation of MSE (SDM). Thus, the proposed novel algorithm could be employed as a reliable and accurate technique to predict the cross-sectional distortion of VDD-processed tubes.","PeriodicalId":48611,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Computational Design and Engineering","volume":"155 1","pages":"1060-1079"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2023-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84783654","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
