Water Supply Scheduling for Cross-basin Reservoir Groups Based on Improved Scheduling Diagram by ZHAO Siqi, XU Wei, CHEN Si, WANG Sufan, YANG Yi

“…To exploit the scheduling potential of cross-basin reservoir groups by employing runoff information,this paper proposes an improved reservoir scheduling diagram to retain simplicity and intuitiveness.Taking the Xiajiankou,Fengyan,and Nanpeng reservoirs in Banan District of Chongqing as an example,it adopts the POA algorithm to build a joint scheduling model of water diversion and water supply for the cross-basin reservoir groups by a simulation-optimization approach.Meanwhile,three scenarios of the current situation scheduling,optimized scheduling with conventional scheduling diagrams,and optimized scheduling with improved scheduling diagrams are set up to evaluate the water diversion and supply performance of reservoirs and analyze the influence of uncertainty runoff information on the scheduling performance.The results are as follows:① The improved scheduling diagram performs best in the long series scheduling,and it can increase the annual average water supply of the reservoir group by 6.87% and reduce the abandoned water by 87.58% compared with the current situation scheduling;② In a dry year,the method can reduce 486.3×10⁴ m³ of water shortage and increase 477.6×10⁴ m³ of water for power generation based on the current situation scheduling;③ When considering the runoff information uncertainty,the water supply of the improved scheduling diagram is 3.37% lower than the ideal case but is still 5.96% more than the conventional optimization.The results are conducive to making scientific decisions and improving the water supply effect.…”

Optimization mechanism of attack and defense strategy in honeypot game with evidence for deception by Lihua SONG, Yangyang JIANG, Changyou XING, Guomin ZHANG

“…Using game theory to optimize honeypot behavior is an important method in improving defender’s trapping ability.Existing work tends to use over simplified action spaces and consider isolated game stages.A game model named HoneyED with expanded action spaces and covering comprehensively the whole interaction process between a honeypot and its adversary was proposed.The model was focused on the change in the attacker’s beliefs about its opponent’s real identity.A pure-strategy-equilibrium involving belief was established for the model by theoretical analysis.Then, based on the idea of deep counterfactual regret minimization (Deep-CFR), an optimization algorithm was designed to find an approximate hybrid-strategy-equilibrium.Agents for both sides following hybrid strategies from the approximate equilibrium were obtained.Theoretical and experimental results show that the attacker should quit the game when its belief reaches a certain threshold for maximizing its payoff.But the defender’s strategy is able to maximize the honeypot’s profit by reducing the attacker’s belief to extend its stay as long as possible and by selecting the most suitable response to attackers with different deception recognition abilities.…”

RESEARCH ON THE OPTIMAL DESIGN METHOD OF U-SHAPED SECTION CONTAINMENT RING

“…U-shaped containment ring is usually used as protection device for turbine starters.Under the condition that the turbine rotor is contained,structural optimization of the U-shaped section containment ring was carried out to obtain a light and inclusive structure,which improved aircraft safety and thrust-to-weight ratio.An optimal design method for U-shaped cross section containment ring was proposed.The method adopted the optimal Latin hypercube design,numerical simulation,response surface modeling,and multi-island genetic algorithm to achieve the optimal design of multiple parameters of containment rings cross section.By combining simulation and experiment,the influence weights of different structural parameters on the residual kinetic energy of debris and the volume of containment rings were analyzed.The influence of different structural parameters of Ushaped containment ring on the containment results was studied.Containment test was carried out to verify the optimized containment ring.The results show that the thickness of the containment ring has the greatest influence on the residual kinetic energy of the debris,and the weight ratio is 38%.The main structural parameters affect the inclusion effect are thickness and groove depth.The error of inclusion ring deformation is less than 2%in the comparison between simulation and test results,which indicates that the optimization design method proposed is reasonable and reliable.The research results can provide prior knowledge and optimization methods for the quality reduction of U-shaped containment ring structures.…”
