Due to the novel hull form design, at present no standard series or full-scale data is publicly available to predict Tri- SWACH resistance during the preliminary ship design process. This work investigates the viability of using an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to quickly predict total resistance for preliminary Tri-SWACH design. An ANN was trained using total resistance experimental data obtained from model tests, which varied side hull arrangements. The results highlight strong correlation for model resistance prediction. A Tri-SWACH case study was then developed which had side hull geometric properties different to any previously used to train the ANN. The results, validated against CFD predictions, mimicked the resistance pattern generated by other model experimental data, providing confidence in the ANN’s ability to function as a resistance prediction tool. This work demonstrates the viability of ANN to assess Tri-SWACH resistance as part of a preliminary design process. These results suggest that ANNs can be effective tools for assessing performance given relevant training data.

The concentration of carbonyl is one of the most important properties contributing to the detection of the thermal aging of polymer ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM). In this publication, an artificial neural network (ANN) model was developed to predict concentration of carbenyl during the thermal aging of EPDM using a database consisting of seven input variables. The best fitting training data was obtained with the architecture of (7 inputs neurons, 10 hidden neurons and 1 output neuron). A Levenberg Marquardt learning (LM) algorithm, hyperbolic tangent transfer function were used at the hidden and output layer respectively. The optimal ANN was obtained with a high correlation coefficient R= 0.995 and a very low root mean square error RMSE = 0.0148 mol/l during the generalization phase. The comparison between the experimental and calculated results show that the ANN model is able of predicted the concentration of carbonyl during the thermal aging of ethylene propylene diene monomer

The reported study was undertaken in a small agricultural watershed, namely, Kapgari in Eastern India having a drainage area of 973 ha. The watershed was subdivided into three sub-watersheds on the basis of drainage network and land topography. An attempt was made to relate the continuously monitored runoff data from the sub-watersheds and the whole-watershed with the rainfall and temperature data using the artificial neural network (ANN) technique. The reported study also evaluated the bias in the prediction of daily runoff with shorter length of training data set using different resampling techniques with the ANN modeling. A 10-fold cross-validation (CV) technique was used to find the optimum number of hidden neurons in the hidden layer and to avoid neural network over-fitting during the training process for shorter length of data. The results illustrated that the ANN models developed with shorter length of training data set avoid neural network over-fitting during the training process, using a 10-fold CV method. Moreover, the biasness was investigated using the bootstrap resampling technique based ANN (BANN) for short length of training data set. In comparison with the 10-fold CV technique, the BANN is more efficient in solving the problems of the over-fitting and under-fitting during training of models for shorter length of data set.

Electric power is one of the main needs of society today, ranging from household consumers to industry. The demand for electricity increases every year. So as to achieve adjustments between power generation and power demand, the electricity provider (PLN) must know the load needs or electricity demand for some time to come. There are many studies on the prediction of electricity loads in electricity, but they are not specific to each consumer sector. One of the predictions of this electrical load can be done using the Radial Basis Function Artificial Neural Network (ANN) method. This method uses training data learning from 2010 - 2017 as a reference data. Calculations with this method are based on empirical experience of electricity provider planning which is relatively difficult to do, especially in terms of corrections that need to be made to changes in load. This study specifically predicts the electricity load in the Semarang Rayon network service area in 2019-2024. The results of this Artificial Neural Network produce projected electricity demand needs in 2019-2024 with an average annual increase of 1.01% and peak load in 2019-2024. The highest peak load in 2024 and the dominating average is the household sector with an increase of 1% per year. The accuracy results of the Radial Basis Function model reached 95%.

ABSTRACT In this paper, we consider an optimization of the hull shape in order to minimize the total resistance of a ship. The total resistance is assumed to be the sum of the wave resistance computed on the basis of the thin-ship theory and the frictional resistance. Smoothness of hull lines is proved with mathematical procedure, in which differentials of the hull lines functions are analyzed. The wave-making resistance optimization, involving a genetic algorithm, uses Michell integral to calculate wave resistance. A certain hull form is generated by the method using cross section information of a modified DTMB model ship 5415 and a comparative experiment is carried out. Experimental and calculation result show that the method is of good adaptability for designing certain types of ships with excellent resistance performance.

AbstractMachine learning (ML) methods are nowadays widely used to automate geophysical study. Some of ML algorithms are used to solve lithological classification problems during uranium mining process. One of the key aspects of using classical ML methods is causing data features and estimating their influence on the classification. This paper presents a quantitative assessment of the impact of expert opinions on the classification process. In other words, we have prepared the data, identified the experts and performed a series of experiments with and without taking into account the fact that the expert identifier is supplied to the input of the automatic classifier during training and testing. Feedforward artificial neural network (ANN) has been used as a classifier. The results of the experiments show that the “knowledge” of the ANN of which expert interpreted the data improves the quality of the automatic classification in terms of accuracy (by 5 %) and recall (by 20 %). However, due to the fact that the input parameters of the model may depend on each other, the SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) method has been used to further assess the impact of expert identifier. SHAP has allowed assessing the degree of parameter influence. It has revealed that the expert ID is at least two times more influential than any of the other input parameters of the neural network. This circumstance imposes significant restrictions on the application of ANNs to solve the task of lithological classification at the uranium deposits.

Abstract Investigation of applying physics informed neural networks on the test case involving flow past Converging-Diverging (CD) Nozzle has been investigated. Both Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Physics Informed Neural Network (PINN) are used to do the training and prediction. Results show that Artificial Neural Network (ANN) by itself is already able to give relatively good prediction. With the addition of PINN, the error reduces even more, although by only a relatively small amount. This is perhaps due to the already good prediction. The effects of batch size, training iteration and number of epochs on the prediction accuracy have already been tested. It is found that increasing batch size improves the prediction. On the other hand, increasing the training iteration may give poorer prediction due to overfitting. Lastly, in general, increasing epochs reduces the error. More investigations should be done in the future to further reduce the error while at the same time using less training data. More complicated cases with time varying results should also be included. Extrapolation of the results using PINN can also be tested.

In this work, an extensive experimental data of Nansulate coating from NanoTechInc were applied to develop an artificial neural network (ANN) model. The Levenberg–Marquart algorithm has been used in network training to predict and calculate the energy gain and energy saving of Nansulate coating. By comparing the obtained results from ANN model with experimental data, it was observed that there is more qualitative and quantitative agreement between ANN model values and experimental data results. Furthermore, the developed ANN model shows more accurate prediction over a wide range of operating conditions. Also, maximum relative error of 3% was observed by comparison of experimental and ANN simulation results.
