Optimization the PID Controller of Fin Stabilizer Based on Genetic Algorithm [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
人类文明的进步与海洋运输密切相关。船舶在海上航行时,由于受到海浪、海风以及海流等海洋环境扰动的作用,不可避免的要产生摇荡运动。减摇鳍是一种应用最广泛的主动式减摇装置。随着计算机技术的发展,智能控制不断完善,为了提高减摇鳍系统的性能,使减摇鳍在各种海况下都能起到很好的减摇效果,进行了减摇鳍控制系统的研究工作。 本文讨论了二维不规则长峰波和三维不规则短峰波的模型建立和仿真,在MATLAB基础上得到了较为理想的海浪模拟结果,利用OpenGL完成了三维波浪的显示。针对标准遗传算法的缺陷 ...

Relational structure of illegal wildlife hunting in China: A nationwide hunter–prey network analysis

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Illegal wildlife hunting continues to pose a major biodiversity threat in China, yet there remains no systemic relational understanding of the way in which perpetrators are linked to key taxa. To address this, here we provide a novel framework for understanding and addressing the systemic roots of wildlife crime.

The Age and Origin of Block Deposits in the Victorian Alps, Australia

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Large periglacial block deposits are found in the mountains of southeastern Australia. Despite their widespread distribution, their mode of formation and age are poorly understood. These landforms hold considerable potential to shed light on the nature of cooling during glacial periods. In this paper we present a new study of block deposits in

Open‐land‐derived agroforestry and effects of abandonment of management of the main crop on ecosystem services and woody plant diversity

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Tropical forests are rapidly declining. One promising strategy to reverse the loss of tropical forest is the establishment of agroforestry on open land. We combined interviews with biodiversity surveys to learn general lessons from success and nonsuccess stories of the establishment of open‐land‐derived coffee agroforests in one of the world's ...
