MOTION PATTERN OPTIMIZATION AND ENERGY ANALYSIS FOR UNDERWATER GLIDER BASED ON THE MULTI-OBJECTIVE ARTIFICIAL BEE COLONY METHOD

Motion Pattern Optimization and Energy Analysis for Underwater Glider Based on the Multi-Objective Artificial Bee Colony Method

Underwater gliders are prevailing in oceanic observation nowadays for their flexible deployment and low cost.However, the limited onboard energy constrains their application, hence the motion pattern optimization and energy analysis are the key to maximizing the range of the glider while maintaining the acceptable navigation preciseness of the glid

Effect of laser intensity profile on the microstructure and texture of Inconel 718 superalloy fabricated by direct energy deposition

Epitaxial growth of dendrites often results in a strong texture, which is a common phenomenon in a laser additive Breathe Easy manufacturing process.In this study, pulsed lasers with flat-top and Gaussian intensity profiles were used to modulate the molten pool morphology and the solidification texture with a unidirectional scanning strategy.The me
