The authenticity and reasonability of the medium hydraulic excavator simulation model parameters was the foundation to ensure the effectiveness of the simulation model. Based on the bond graph theory, a dynamic simulation model of a medium excavator was established. By the comparison of experimental data and simulation data, the response surface of unknown parameters and the error function of the system model were built. Subsequently, the genetic algorithm was employed to optimize the response surface and obtained optimal value. And then the calibration of the unknown parameters was automatically completed. It was proved that the model simulation curve and with experimental curve fitted better when response surface-genetic algorithm method was used for automatic optimization and calibration of unknown parameters. Furthermore, this method could also function to reduce effectively the number of trials of parameter calibration.

<p>This paper explains an adaptive method for estimation of unknown parameters of transfer function model of any system for finding the parameters. The transfer function of the model with unknown model parameters is considered as the adaptive model whose values are adapted with the experimental data. The minimization of error between the experimental data and the output of the adaptive model have been realised by choosing objective function based on different error criterions. Nelder-Mead optimisation Method is used for adaption algorithm. To prove the method robustness and for students learning, the simple system of separately excited dc motor is considered in this paper. The experimental data of speed response and corresponding current response are taken and transfer function parameters of  dc motors are adapted based on Nelder-Mead optimisation to match with the experimental data. The effectiveness of estimated parameters with different objective functions are compared and validated with machine specification parameters.</p>

Model-based control of building energy offers an attractive way to minimize energy consumption in buildings. Model-based controllers require mathematical models that can accurately predict the behavior of the system. For buildings, specifically, these models are difficult to obtain due to highly time varying, and nonlinear nature of building dynamics. Also, model-based controllers often need information of all states, while not all the states of a building model are measurable. In addition, it is challenging to accurately estimate building model parameters (e.g. convective heat transfer coefficient of varying outside air). In this paper, we propose a modeling framework for “on-line estimation” of states and unknown parameters of buildings, leading to the Parameter-Adaptive Building (PAB) model. Extended Kalman filter (EKF) and unscented Kalman filter (UKF) techniques are used to design the PAB model which simultaneously tunes the parameters of the model and provides an estimate for all states of the model. The proposed PAB model is tested against experimental data collected from Lakeshore Center building at Michigan Tech University. Our results indicate that the new framework can accurately predict states and parameters of the building thermal model.

Abstract. We present a Monte Carlo genetic algorithm (MCGA) for efficient, automated, and unbiased global optimization of model input parameters by simultaneous fitting to multiple experimental data sets. The algorithm was developed to address the inverse modelling problems associated with fitting large sets of model input parameters encountered in state-of-the-art kinetic models for heterogeneous and multiphase atmospheric chemistry. The MCGA approach utilizes a sequence of optimization methods to find and characterize the solution of an optimization problem. It addresses an issue inherent to complex models whose extensive input parameter sets may not be uniquely determined from limited input data. Such ambiguity in the derived parameter values can be reliably detected using this new set of tools, allowing users to design experiments that should be particularly useful for constraining model parameters. We show that the MCGA has been used successfully to constrain parameters such as chemical reaction rate coefficients, diffusion coefficients, and Henry's law solubility coefficients in kinetic models of gas uptake and chemical transformation of aerosol particles as well as multiphase chemistry at the atmosphere–biosphere interface. While this study focuses on the processes outlined above, the MCGA approach should be portable to any numerical process model with similar computational expense and extent of the fitting parameter space.

Modeling large nonlinear elastic deformation of elastomers is an important issue for developing new materials. Particularly, this is very promising for design and performance analysis of dielectric elastomers (DEs). These “smart materials” are capable of responding to an external electric field by displaying significant change in shape and size. In this paper, finite element method (FEM) was used to simulate the mechanical behavior of soft elastomers on uniaxial tension. Experimental data from uniaxial tensile tests were used in order to calibrate hyperelastic constitutive models of the material behavior. The constitutive model parameters were evaluated in ABAQUS/CAE. The 3D-model simulation results of a dumbbell shaped specimen at uniaxial tension shows very good correspondence with experimental data.

Abstract Blood oxygenators, also known as artificial lungs, are widely used in cardiopulmonary bypass surgery to maintain physiologic oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in blood, and also serve as respiratory assist devices to support patients with lung failure. The time- and cost-consuming method of trial and error is initially used to optimize the oxygenator design, and this method is followed by the introduction of the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) that is employed to reduce the number of prototypes that must be built as the design is optimized. The CFD modeling method, while having progress in recent years, still requires complex three-dimensional (3D) modeling and experimental data to identify the model parameters and validate the model. In this study, we sought to develop an easily implemented mathematical models to predict and optimize the performance (oxygen partial pressure/saturation, oxygen/carbon dioxide transfer rates, and pressure loss) of hollow fiber membrane-based oxygenators and this model can be then used in conjunction with CFD to reduce the number of 3D CFD iteration for further oxygenator design and optimization. The model parameters are first identified by fitting the model predictions to the experimental data obtained from a mock flow loop experimental test on a mini fiber bundle. The models are then validated through comparing the theoretical results with the experimental data of seven full-size oxygenators. The comparative analysis show that the model predictions and experimental results are in good agreement. Based on the verified models, the design curves showing the effects of parameters on the performance of oxygenators and the guidelines detailing the optimization process are established to determine the optimal design parameters (fiber bundle dimensions and its porosity) under specific system design requirements (blood pressure drop, oxygen pressure/saturation, oxygen/carbon dioxide transfer rates, and priming volume). The results show that the model-based optimization method is promising to derive the optimal parameters in an efficient way and to serve as an intermediate modeling approach prior to complex CFD modeling.
