Structural optimization of Au–Pd bimetallic nanoparticles with improved particle swarm optimization method

Due to the dependence of the chemical and physical properties of the bimetallic nanoparticles(NPs) on their structures,a fundamental understanding of their structural characteristics is crucial for their syntheses and wide applications. In this article, a systematical atomic-level investigation of Au–Pd bimetallic NPs is conducted by using the improved particle swarm optimization(IPSO) with quantum correction Sutton–Chen potentials(Q-SC) at different Au/Pd ratios and different sizes. In the IPSO, the simulated annealing is introduced into the classical particle swarm optimization(PSO) to improve the effectiveness and reliability. In addition, the influences of initial structure, particle size and composition on structural stability and structural features are also studied. The simulation results reveal that the initial structures have little effects on the stable structures, but influence the converging rate greatly, and the convergence rate of the mixing initial structure is clearly faster than those of the core-shell and phase structures. We find that the Au–Pd NPs prefer the structures with Au-rich in the outer layers while Pd-rich in the inner ones. Especially, when the Au/Pd ratio is 6:4, the structure of the nanoparticle(NP) presents a standardized Pd_(core) Au_(shell) structure.

Asymmetric delay feedback stochastic resonance detection method based on prior knowledge particle swarm optimization

For the adjustable parameters stochastic resonance system, the selection of the structural parameters plays a decisive role in the performance of the detection method. The vibration signal of rotating machinery is non-linear and unstable, and its weak fault characteristics are easily concealed by noise. Under strong background noise interference, the detection of fault features is particularly challenging. Therefore, a type of weak fault feature extraction method, named knowledge-based particle swarm optimization algorithm for asymptotic delayed feedback stochastic resonance (abbreviated as KPSO-ADFSR) is proposed. Through deduction under adiabatic approximation, we observe that both the asymmetric parameters, the length of delay and the feedback strength, impact the potential function. After adjusting the asymmetric parameters of the system, the output signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is used as the fitness function, and the setting of the relationship between the noise intensity and barrier height is used as the prior knowledge of the particle swarm algorithm. Through this algorithm, the delay length and the feedback strength are optimized. This method achieves global optimization of system parameters in a short time; it overcomes the shortcomings of the traditional stochastic resonance method, which has a long convergence time and tends to easily fall into local optimization. It can effectively improve the detection of weak fault features. In the bearing rolling body pitting corrosion failure experiment and steel field engineering experiment, the proposed method could extract the characteristics of a weak fault more effectively than the traditional stochastic resonance method based on the standard particle swarm algorithm.     

Inverse acoustical characterization of natural jute sound absorbing material by the particle swarm optimization method

For modeling of jute as acoustic material, knowledge of its non-acoustical parameters like porosity, tortuosity, air flow resistivity, thermal and viscous characteristic lengths is a prime requisite. Measurement of these non-acoustical parameters is not straightforward and involves a dedicated measurement setup. So in order to overcome this issue, the inverse acoustical characterization can be used. In this paper, the particle swarm optimization method (PSO) is used as an optimization method. This method estimates the non-acoustical parameters of jute material in felt form by minimizing the error between experimental and theoretical sound absorption data. In this work, the impedance prediction models for fibrous materials like Johnson–Champoux–Allard model with rigid and limp frame and Garai–Pompoli model is used for sound absorption coefficient calculation by the transfer matrix method along with the PSO. The inverse estimated non-acoustical parameters for jute material are then compared with estimated and experimentally measured parameters for jute felts. Using these inversely predicted parameters, sound absorption of multilayer sound absorbers is also studied.

High-pressure structures of InBi predicted by particle swarm optimization algorithm

We extensively explore the high-pressure structures of InBi by using a newly developed particle swarm optimization algorithm. An orthorhombic Imma structure is discovered to be stable from 43.7 GPa to 107.9 GPa, ruling out the previously speculated cubic structure. Further increasing the pressure, we find a tetragonal P4/nmm structure which is energetically more favourable from 107.9 GPa to 200 GPa. Especially, the tetragonal P4/nmm structure is known to occur at high pressure in the structures of ZnO and MgTe. We also predict this structure to be a high-pressure structure of ZnTe. Thus the tetragonal P4/nmm structure may be a universal high-pressure structure of the Ⅱ-Ⅵ and the Ⅲ-Ⅴ compounds.
