Catch fish optimization algorithm: a new human behavior algorithm for solving clustering problems
(Springer, 2024) Jia, Heming; Wen, Qixian; Wang, Yuhao; Mirjalili, Seyedali
This paper is inspired by traditional rural fishing methods and proposes a new metaheuristic optimization algorithm based on human behavior: Catch Fish Optimization Algorithm (CFOA). This algorithm simulates the process of rural fishermen fishing in ponds, which is mainly divided into two phases: the exploration phase and the exploitation phase. In the exploration phase, there are two stages to search: first, the individual capture stage based on personal experience and intuition, and second, the group capture stage based on human proficiency in using tools and collaboration. Transition from independent search to group capture during the exploration phase. Exploitation phase: All fishermen will surround the shoal of fish and work together to salvage the remaining fish, a collective capture strategy. CFOA model is based on these two phases. This paper tested the optimization performance of CFOA using IEEE CEC 2014 and IEEE CEC 2020 test functions, and compared it with 11 other optimization algorithms. We employed the IEEE CEC2017 function to evaluate the overall performance of CFOA. The experimental results indicate that CFOA exhibits excellent and stable optimization capabilities overall. Additionally, we applied CFOA to data clustering problems, and the final results demonstrate that CFOA's overall error rate in processing clustering problems is less than 20%, resulting in a better clustering effect. The comprehensive experimental results show that CFOA exhibits excellent optimization effects when facing different optimization problems. CFOA code is open at https://github.com/Meky-1210/CFOA.git.
Numerical procedure for solving the nonlinear behaviour of a spherical absorber
(Budapesti Muszaki es Gazdasagtudomanyi Egyetem, 2024) Kawulok, Marek; Čermák, Martin; Pospíšil, Stanislav; Juračka, David
The aim of the paper is to perform numerical simulations for a system of nonlinear differential equations that describe the behaviour of a spherical absorber placed in a support bowl and to describe the applied techniques. The motion of the sphere is constrained to a plane problem. The derived system of equations is numerically solved using the continuation method and the modified secant method. The absorber's response to different harmonic excitation forces is simulated to demonstrate the applicability of these techniques in its analysis. The dependence of the response amplitude on the angular frequency of excitation is presented graphically. The results also include a response stability analysis using the Routh-Hurwitz criteria.
Accuracy of determination of corresponding points from available providers of spatial data - A case study from Slovakia
(MDPI, 2024) Labant, Slavomír; Peťovský, Patrik; Šustek, Pavel; Leicher, Lubomír
Mapping the terrain and the Earth's surface can be performed through non-contact methoYes, that is correct.ds such as laser scanning. This is one of the most dynamic and effective data collection methods. This case study aims to analyze the usability of spatial data from available sources and to choose the appropriate solutions and procedures for processing the point cloud of the area of interest obtained from available web applications. The processing of the point cloud obtained by airborne laser scanning results in digital terrain models created in selected software. The study also included modeling of different types of residential development, and the results were evaluated. Different data sources may have compatibility issues, which means that the position of the same object from different spatial data databases may not be identical. To address this, deviations of the corresponding points were determined from various data sources such as Real Estate Cadaster, ZBGIS Buildings, LiDAR point cloud, orthophoto mosaic, and geodetic measurements. These deviations were analyzed according to their size and orientation, with the average deviations ranging from 0.22 to 0.34 m and standard deviations from 0.11 to 0.20 m. The Real Estate Cadaster was used as the correct basis for comparison. The area of the building was also compared, with the slightest difference being present between the Real Estate Cadaster and geodetic measurement. The difference was zero after rounding the area to whole numbers. The maximum area difference was +5 m2 for ZBGIS Buildings.

Electric vehicle charging by use of renewable energy technologies: A comprehensive and updated review
(Elsevier, 2024) Nazari, Mohammad Alhuyi; Blažek, Vojtěch; Prokop, Lukáš; Mišák, Stanislav; Prabaharan, Natarajan
The majority of the vehicles in the world consuming fossil fuels that causes emissions of harmful greenhouse gases. In order to mitigate the emissions regarding the transport sector, Electric Vehicles (EVs) have attracted attentions. One of the main concerns in the development of EVs is supply of required power for the charging stations. Renewable energy systems would be clean and attractive options for supply of required power of charging stations. In recent years, several studies have investigated applications of renewable energy systems for charging stations of EV and analyzed different aspects of these technologies. This article reviews the research works on the design, optimization and performance investigation of charging stations coupled with renewable energy systems. Studies on EV charging systems powered by stand-alone or hybrid renewable energy systems are considered in the present article. According to the reviewed works, significant potential of renewable energy systems for supply of charging stations can be concluded. Different factors such as the applied technology and components, meteorological data of the installation site and operating condition influence the performance of these systems. Furthermore, it can be concluded that control design system can influence various aspects of EV charging technologies powered by renewable energy systems such as share of renewables in the grid -connected configurations and performance reliability. Challenges and opportunities associated with the development of these systems are provided in the current works and some recommendations are highlighted for the forthcoming studies and projects.
