LAND USE OPTIMIZATION USING SELF-ORGANIZING ALGORITHMS

ABSTRACT. In many spatial systems the interaction between various regions decreases dramatically with distance. This suggests that local trade-offs may be more important than global ones in land use planning and that a decentralized, parallel optimization of the individual regions may be an attractive supplement to more centralized optimization approaches. In this paper, we solve a forest planning problem using a series of decentralized approaches. The approaches can be characterized as self-organizing algorithms and are modeled in the framework of a cellular automaton. We compare our results with those obtained by more centralized approaches, viz. a large sample approach, simulated annealing, and a genetic algorithm. We find that the self-organizing algorithms generally converge much faster to solutions which are at least as good as those obtained by simulated annealing and the genetic algorithm.

On the spatial blow-up and decay for some nonlinear parabolic equations with nonlinear boundary conditions

In this note we investigate the spatial behavior of several nonlinear parabolic equations with nonlinear boundary conditions. Under suitable conditions on the nonlinear terms we prove that the solutions either cease to exist for a finite value of the spatial variable or else they decay algebraically. The main tool used is the weighted energy method. Our results can be applied to several situations concerning heat conduction. Received: April 4, 2004; revised: September 20, 2004     

Performance Evaluation and Effectiveness of the Reverberation Room

This research presents a thorough evaluation of the reverberation room at Acoustics Laboratory in National Institute of Standards (NIS) according to the related international standards. The evaluation aims at examining the room performance and exploring its effectiveness in the frequency range from 125 Hz to 10000 Hz according to the international standard requirements. The room, which was designed and built several years ago, is an irregular rectangular shape free from diffusers. Its volume is about 158.84 m³, which meets the requirement of the ISO 354 standard L_max < 1.9V^1/3. Cut-off frequencies of one and one-third octave are 63 Hz and 100 Hz respectively; however Schroder frequency is 400 Hz. Calculations of cut-off frequency and modal density showed adequate modes that give acceptable uniformity starting comfortably from frequency of 125 Hz. The room has a reverberation time that is suitable for its size over the frequency range of interest. The room sound absorption surface area and its sound absorption coefficient satisfy the criteria given in ISO 3741 and ISO 354. There is an accepted diffuse sound field inside the room due to the standard deviation of measured sound level, which is less than 1.5 dB over all the frequency range. The only exception was 125 Hz which may be due to a lack of diffusivity of the sound field at this frequency. The evaluation proves that the NIS reverberation room is in full agreement with the international standards, which in turns qualifies the room to host measurements inside without concerns.

Molecular dynamics simulation study of association in trifluoroethanol/water mixtures

Mixtures of Trifluoroethanol (TFE) and water with different proportions are studied using molecular dynamics simulations. The radial and spatial distribution functions, as well as the size distribution of TFE clusters are obtained from the trajectories. The variation of radial and spatial distribution functions with composition show that the addition of TFE enhances the water structure, but the hydrogen bonds between TFE molecules are broken as TFE is diluted with water. The TFE‐rich solutions have stronger TFE–water hydrogen bonds. The clustering of TFE molecules in low concentration region is attributed to the hydrophobic interactions between CF₃ groups. The distribution of cluster sizes in solution supports these conclusions. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Comput Chem, 2010

Polarization-dependence of optical spatial solitons in photoisomerization material

Experimental observation of spatial solitons in azobenzene-doped organic polymer is demonstrated in dye-doped polymer bulk material. Solitons cannot only be formed in this material with linearly polarized light, but also with circularly polarized light. An interesting phenomenon is revealed that the soliton is polarization-dependent. The solitons with the same intensity but with different polarizations have different widths. The experimental results are further theoretically explained with the dynamics model based on a photochemical process, namely photoisomerization.
