Generating uniform design tables (UDTs) is the first step to experimenting efficiently and effectively, and is also one of the most critical steps. Thus, the construction of uniform design tables has received much attention over the past decades. This paper presents a new algorithm for constructing uniform design tables: restart discrete dynamical evolutionary algorithm (RDDE). This algorithm is based on a well-designed dynamical evolutionary algorithm and utilizes discrete rounding technology to convert continuous variables into discrete variables. Considering the optimization of UDT is a multi-objective optimization problem, RDDE uses Friedman rank to select the optimal solution with better comprehensive comparison ranking. RDDE also utilizes a simulated annealing-based restart technology to select control parameters, thereby increasing the algorithm's ability to jump out of local optima. Comparisons with state-of-the-art UDTs and two practical engineering examples are presented to verify the uniformity of the design table constructed by RDDE. Numerical results indicate that RDDE can indeed construct UDTs with excellent uniformity at different levels, factors, and runs. Especially, RDDE can flexibly construct UDTs with unequal intervals of factors that cannot be directly processed by other designs of experiment.

An algorithm based on the Paterson-Stockmeyer (PS) scheme and filtering technology is developed to compute the large matrix functions in dynamic problems accurately and efficiently. With the assistance of analysis on truncation error and error caused by filtering, the error growth law during the computation is studied, based on which an adaptive filtering threshold is proposed to help the proposed algorithm more efficiently achieve similar accuracy as the original PS scheme. Numerical examples, including 30 random matrices with different bandwidths, 10 adjacency matrices in the complex network dynamic problems, and a trampoline vibration problem, are given to verify the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed algorithm. Numerical results suggest that the proposed algorithm can achieve good accuracy and efficiency in computing the matrix function in the considered dynamic problems.



Low-discrepancy Sampling in the Expanded Dimensional Space: An Acceleration Technique for Particle Swarm Optimization

March 2023

Compared with random sampling, low-discrepancy sampling is more effective in covering the search space. However, the existing research cannot definitely state whether the impact of a low-discrepancy sample on particle swarm optimization (PSO) is positive or negative. Using Niderreiter's theorem, this study completes an error analysis of PSO, which reveals that the error bound of PSO at each iteration depends on the dispersion of the sample set in an expanded dimensional space. Based on this error analysis, an acceleration technique for PSO-type algorithms is proposed with low-discrepancy sampling in the expanded dimensional space. The acceleration technique can generate a low-discrepancy sample set with a smaller dispersion, compared with a random sampling, in the expanded dimensional space; it also reduces the error at each iteration, and hence improves the convergence speed. The acceleration technique is combined with the standard PSO and the comprehensive learning particle swarm optimization, and the performance of the improved algorithm is compared with the original algorithm. The experimental results show that the two improved algorithms have significantly faster convergence speed under the same accuracy requirement.

... Therefore, it is of crucial importance to consider the uncertainties in engineering design (Ditlevsen O 1996;Huang et al. 2023Huang et al. , 2024. However, due to the limited storage capacity of sensors or the high cost of observations, it is difficult to obtain sufficient samples for many engineering problems, which leads to scarce samples (Fröderberg and Thelandersson 2015;Jung et al. 2024;Zhao et al. 2024). As a result, it is impossible to accurately evaluate their probability information through probability density functions by using conventional probabilistic methods (Acar et al. 2021;Dai et al. 2023;Karuna and Manohar 2016). ...

Constructing efficient and high-precision time integration algorithms to predict the process of structural displacement, velocity, and other responses changing over time has always been one of the core research directions in the field of computational mechanics [3,4]. In this direction, a variety of time integration algorithms have been developed, such as the Newmark method [5], the symplectic method [6,7], the precise integration method [8][9][10], and so on. However, these methods mainly aim to solving deterministic structural dynamical response problems. ...
