Ultra-high performance concrete has excellent mechanical properties such as ultra-high strength and high durability, and has a broad application prospect in the field of bridge engineering. To make full use of the superior mechanical properties of UHPC and reduce the cost of the bridge, the particle swarm optimization algorithm is used to optimize the structural design of the UHPC beam bridge; Aiming at the problem that the traditional particle swarm optimization algorithm is easy to fall into local optimum, the nonlinear adaptive weight update method is used to improve the particle swarm optimization algorithm. Based on the above-mentioned improved particle swarm optimization algorithm, the optimal design method of ordinary reinforced UHPC beams and prestressed UHPC beams with commonly used highway spans is studied. The reliability of the optimized structural limit state is analyzed by Monte Carlo (MC) importance sampling method. The results show that compared with the traditional particle swarm optimization algorithm, the improved particle swarm optimization algorithm has higher convergence speed and convergence accuracy. The optimal height-span ratio of ordinary reinforced UHPC beams decreases with the increase of the span, and the construction cost gradually increases; The optimal height-span ratio of the prestressed beam decreases first and then increases with the increase of the span, and the construction cost gradually increases. The calculation results of load capacity reliability indexes of optimization results are all higher than the target reliability indexes of similar components stipulated in China’s “Uniform Standard for Structural Reliability Design of Highway Engineering”.

In the area of cloud computing load balancing, the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm is neoteric and now praised highly, but recently a more neoteric algorithm which deploys the classifier into load balancing is presented. Besides, an algorithm called red-black tree which is aiming at improving the efficiency of resource dispatching is also praised. But the 3 algorithms all have different disadvantages which cannot be ignored. For example, the dispatch efficiency of PSO algorithm is not satisfying; although classifier and red-black tree algorithm improve the efficiency of dispatching tasks, the performance in load balancing is not that good, as a result the improved PSO algorithm is presented. Some researches are designed to get the advantages of new algorithm. First of all, the time complexity and performance for each algorithm in theory are computed; and then actual data which are generated in experiments are given to demonstrate the performance. And from the experiment result, it can be found that for the speed of algorithm itself PSO is the lowest, and the improved PSO solve this problem in some degree; improved PSO algorithm has the best performance in task solving and PSO is the second one, the red-black and Naive Bayes algorithm are much slower; PSO and improved PSO algorithm perform well in load balancing, while the other two algorithms do not do well.

The partial shading of a photovoltaic array repeatedly occurs in the natural environment, which can cause a failure of a conventional maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm. In this paper, the convergence conditions of the standard particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm are deduced by the functional analysis, and then the influence of the random variables and inertia factor of the algorithm on the trajectory in the particle swarm optimization is analyzed. Based on the analysis results, an improved particle swarm optimization (IPSO) algorithm, which adopts both global and local modes to locate the maximum power point, is proposed. Compared to the standard PSO algorithm, in the improved PSO algorithm, many random and interfered variables are removed, and the structure is optimized significantly. The proposed algorithm is first simulated in MATLAB to ensure its capability. The feasibility of the approach is validated through physical implementation and experimentation. Results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm has the capability to track the global maximum power point within 3.3 s with an accuracy of 99%. Compared with five recently developed Global MPPT algorithms, the proposed IPSO algorithm achieved better performance in the maximum power tracking in the partial shading conditions.

The sensor nodes of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are deployed to an open and unsupervised region, and they are vulnerable to various types of attacks. Intrusion detection system can detect network attacks that nodes suffer from. This paper combines improved particle swarm optimisation (IPSO) algorithm and back-propagation neural network (BPNN), named IPSO-BPNN. We propose an intrusion detection model of WSNs based on a hierarchical structure. First, we use IPSO algorithm to optimise the initial parameters of BPNN to avoid falling into the local optimum. Then, we apply IPSO-BPNN to the intrusion detection of WSNs. Finally, we use benchmark NSL-KDD and UNSW-NB15 datasets to verify the performance of the IPSO-BPNN. The simulation results show that IPSO-BPNN has faster convergence speed, higher detection accuracy rate and lower false positive rate compared with BPNN and BPNN optimised by PSO algorithm, which can meet the WSNs intrusion detection requirements.

Flatness error is an important factor for effective evaluation of surface quality. The existing flatness error evaluation methods mainly evaluate the flatness error of a small number of data points on the micro scale surface measured by CMM, which cannot complete the flatness error evaluation of three-dimensional point cloud data on the micro/nano surface. To meet the needs of nano scale micro/nano surface flatness error evaluation, a minimum zone method on the basis of improved particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is proposed. This method combines the principle of minimum zone method and hierarchical clustering method, improves the standard PSO algorithm, and can evaluate the flatness error of nano scale micro/nano surface image data point cloud scanned by atomic force microscope. The influence of the area size of micro/nano surface topography data on the flatness error evaluation results is analyzed. The flatness evaluation results and measurement uncertainty of minimum region method, standard least squares method, and standard PSO algorithm on the basis of the improved PSO algorithm are compared. Experiments show that the algorithm can stably evaluate the flatness error of micro/nano surface topography point cloud data, and the evaluation result of flatness error is more reliable and accurate than standard least squares method and standard PSO algorithm.

An improved particle swarm optimization (IPSO) was proposed in this paper to solve the problem that the linearly decreasing inertia weight (LDIW) of particle swarm optimization algorithm cannot adapt to the complex and nonlinear optimization process. The strategy of nonlinear decreasing inertia weight based on the concave function was used in this algorithm. The aggregation degree factor of the swarm was introduced in this new algorithm. And in each iteration process, the weight is changed dynamically based on the current aggregation degree factor and the iteration times, which provides the algorithm with dynamic adaptability. The experiments on the three classical functions show that the convergence speed of IPSO is significantly superior to LDIWPSO, and the convergence accuracy is increased.
