Study on the friction resistance calculation method of a flexible shaft of wire rope based on genetic algorithm

Dynamic and static reactive power resources have become an important means of maintaining the stability and reliability of power system networks. For example, if reactive power is not appropriately compensated for in transmission and distribution systems, the receiving end voltage may fall dramatically, or the load voltage may increase to a level that trips protection devices. However, none of the previous optimal power-flow studies for reactive power generation (RPG) units have optimized the location and capacity of RPG units by the bus impedance matrix power-flow calculation method. Thus, this study proposes a genetic algorithm that optimizes the location and capacity of RPG units, which is implemented by MATLAB. In addition, this study enhances the algorithm by incorporating bus impedance power-flow calculation method into the algorithm. The proposed hybrid algorithm is shown to be valid when applied to well-known IEEE test systems.

Nonuniform microcrack identification is of great significance in mechanical, aerospace, and civil engineering. In this study, the nonuniform crack is simplified as a semielliptical crack, and simplified calculation methods are proposed for damage severity and damage identification of semielliptical cracks. The proposed methods are based on the calculation method for uniform cracks. The wavelet transform and the intelligent algorithm (IA) are used to identify the damage location and the damage severity of the structure, respectively. The singularity of the wavelet coefficient can be used to identify the signal singularity quickly and accurately, and IA efficiently and accurately calculates the structural damage severity. The particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm and the genetic algorithm (GA), widely used, are applied to identify the damage severity of the beam. Numerical simulations and experimental analyses of beams with transfixion and semielliptical cracks are carried out to evaluate the accuracy of the semielliptical crack calculation method and the method of wavelet analysis combined with PSO and GA for nonuniform crack identification. The results show that the wavelet-particle swarm optimization (WPSO) and the wavelet-genetic algorithm (WGA) can accurately and efficiently identify the structural semielliptical damage location and severity and that these methods are not easily influenced by noise. The damage severity calculation method for semielliptical cracks can accurately calculate the semielliptical size and can be used to identify damage in beams with semielliptical cracks.

The prediction accuracy of the fractional FAGM(1,1) model mainly depends on the calculation of the background value. To improve the prediction accuracy of the FAGM(1,1) model, a new background value calculation method is proposed. By analyzing the cause of the background value error, considering the regularity of the fractional-order accumulation sequence with non-homogeneous exponential growth, the non-homogeneous exponential curve is used to fit the fractional-order accumulation sequence, combined with the integral theory, to accumulate the actual sequence on the interval. The result of the integration is used as a new background value. The example shows that using the new background value calculation method combined with the Genetic Algorithm to find the optimal order, the fitting and prediction accuracy of the fractional FAGM(1,1) model is obviously improved, and the background value has the characteristics of simple calculation and strong practicability.

The mechanical characteristics of the end plates of Lebus drum were investigated by an experimental approach. Strain-electricity method was used to test the stress of the end plates of the drum. Experimental results show that the equivalent stress exerted on the end plate is 3 time higher than the stress obtained by the conventional calculation method. The stress exerted on the end plate of one side of Lebus drum grows one time as the wire rope adds two layers according to the winding process and the increment of the stress becomes larger and larger with the wire rope layer number increasing. When the wire rope rise from the 10th layer to 11th layer, the increment of the stress in radial direction on the end plate of the entry side reaches up to 54.9 [Mpa].
