The difficulty of current multi-objective optimization community lies in the large number of objectives.Lacking enough selection pressure toward the Pareto front, classical algorithms are greatly restrained. In this paper, preference rank immune memory clone selection algorithm (PISA) is proposed to solve the problem of multi-objective optimization with a large number of objectives. The nondominated antibodies are proportionally cloned by their preference ranks, which are defined by their preference information. It is beneficial to increase selection pressure and speed up convergence to the true Pareto-optimal front. Solutions used to approximate the Pareto front can be reduced by preference information. Because only nondominated antibodies are selected to operate, the time complexity of the algorithm can be reduced. Besides, an immune memory population is kept to preserve the nondominated antibodies and ε dominance is employed to maintain the diversity of the immune memory population. Tested in several multi-objective problems with 2 objectives and DTLZ2 and DTLZ3 as high as 8 objectives, PISA is experimentally effective.
The accurate measurement of aircraft mass properties, such as the mass, centroid, and moment of inertia (MOI), plays a key role in the precise control of aircraft. In order to obtain high-precision information on the parameters of the mass, centroid, and MOI of an aircraft using a single instrument, an integrated mass property measurement system was developed in this study by analyzing and comparing the latest technologies, especially the function-switching device, which switches the measurement states between the center of mass and the MOI. The purpose of mass property measurement was achieved through single clamping. In addition, the system has strong versatility and expansion and can be used with different tooling or adapter rings to measure the mass properties of aircraft with different shapes. In this paper, the main mechanical structure of the measurement system, the measurement method of relevant mass parameters, and the solution method of the transformation matrix are introduced, and the standard parts and the aircraft were verified experimentally. The test results showed that the mass measurement accuracy was 0.03%, the centroid measurement error was within ±0.2 mm, and the measurement accuracy of the MOI was within 0.2%, all of which meet the high-precision measurement requirements for the mass properties.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
