Improved Quantum Artificial Fish Algorithm Application to Distributed Network Considering Distributed Generation
An improved quantum artificial fish swarm algorithm (IQAFSA) for solving distributed network programming considering distributed generation is proposed in this work. The IQAFSA based on quantum computing which has exponential acceleration for heuristic algorithm uses quantum bits to code artificial fish and quantum revolving gate, preying behavior, and following behavior and variation of quantum artificial fish to update the artificial fish for searching for optimal value. Then, we apply the proposed new algorithm, the quantum artificial fish swarm algorithm (QAFSA), the basic artificial fish swarm algorithm (BAFSA), and the global edition artificial fish swarm algorithm (GAFSA) to the simulation experiments for some typical test functions, respectively. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can escape from the local extremum effectively and has higher convergence speed and better accuracy. Finally, applying IQAFSA to distributed network problems and the simulation results for 33-bus radial distribution network system show that IQAFSA can get the minimum power loss after comparing with BAFSA, GAFSA, and QAFSA

Research on Aerodynamic Design of an End Wall Based on a Quasi-3D Optimization Method
To investigate the effects of different passage structures on the aerodynamic performance of the transonic fans, this paper develops a reliable and practical quasi-3D optimization method for the hub based on the experimental data of Stage 67. In the method, the hub profile of Stage 67 can be optimized without changing the geometrical data of the blades. The optimization results show that stream tube diffusion characteristics depend on the hub profile’s curvature in the boundary layer near the hub. In the front part of the hub, the end wall with a concave construction can enhance the expansion of the stream tubes near the root of the rotor blade, which helps control the diffusion flow of viscous fluid effectively to decrease the low-energy fluid’s energy degradation and radial secondary flow in the boundary layer. In the latter part of the hub, the end wall with a convex construction facilitates the shrinkage of stream tubes to decrease the secondary flow loss and separated flow loss by controlling the separation of the boundary layer efficiently. This construction of the hub profile is beneficial to promote the aerodynamic performance of a transonic fan

Anticoagulants is a risk factor for spontaneous rupture and hemorrhage of gallbladder: a case report and literature review
Abstract Background The spontaneous rupture of the gallbladder is extremely rare, majority of ruptures occur secondary to traumatic injuries. Here, we report a case of spontaneous rupture of the gallbladder with probably cause of oral anticoagulants. Case presentation A 51-year-old woman presented to the emergency room with sudden-onset severe abdominal pain, as well as hypotension and low level of hemoglobin. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan showed a 2.5 cm filling defect and discontinuity in the wall of the gallbladder body, and a massive hematocele in the abdominal cavity. Past medical history was significant for hypertension and had been taking daily aspirin for the past three years because of interventional surgery for cerebral aneurysms, but no history of recent abdominal trauma or past episodes of biliary colic. The patient underwent an urgent laparoscopic abdominal exploration and the gallbladder was removed. The pathology just showed chronic cholecystitis and the patient recovered well. Conclusion Long-term use of anticoagulants may increase the risk of gallbladder rupture and hemorrhage, which is a lethal condition. Rapid diagnosis and timely surgical intervention are the most important measures to treat the patient
Refractive Index and Alcohol-Concentration Sensor Based on Fano Phenomenon
A novel nano-refractive index sensor based on the Fano resonance phenomenon is proposed in this paper. The sensor consists of the metal-insulator-metal (MIM) waveguide and a V-ring cavity with a groove (VRCG). We analyzed the performance of the nanoscale sensor using the finite element method. The simulation results show that the asymmetry of the geometric structure itself is the main factor leading to Fano resonance splitting. In Fano splitting mode, the Fano bandwidth of the system can be significantly reduced when the sensor sensitivity is slightly reduced, so that the figure of merit (FOM) of the sensor can be substantially improved. Based on the above advantages, the sensor’s sensitivity in this paper is as high as 2765 nm/RIU, FOM = 50.28. In addition, we further applied the sensor to alcohol concentration detection. The effect is good, and the sensitivity achieves about 150. This type of sensor has a bright future in the precision measurement of solution concentrations
High-Property Refractive Index and Bio-Sensing Dual-Purpose Sensor Based on SPPs
A high-property plasma resonance-sensor structure consisting of two metal-insulator-metal (MIM) waveguides coupled with a transverse ladder-shaped nano-cavity (TLSNC) is designed based on surface plasmon polaritons. Its transmission characteristics are analyzed using multimode interference coupling mode theory (MICMT), and are simulated using finite element analysis (FEA). Meanwhile, the influence of different structural arguments on the performance of the structure is investigated. This study shows that the system presents four high-quality formants in the transmission spectrum. The highest sensitivity is 3000 nm/RIU with a high FOM* of 9.7 × 105. In addition, the proposed structure could act as a biosensor to detect the concentrations of sodium ions (Na+), potassium ions (K+), and the glucose solution with maximum sensitivities of 0.45, 0.625 and 5.5 nm/mgdL−1, respectively. Compared with other structures, the designed system has the advantages of a simple construction, a wide working band range, high reliability and easy nano-scale integration, providing a high-performance cavity choice for refractive index sensing and biosensing devices based on surface plasmons
A Nano Refractive Index Sensing Structure for Monitoring Hemoglobin Concentration in Human Body
This paper proposes a nanosensor structure consisting of a metal–insulator–metal (MIM) waveguide with a rectangular root and a double-ring (SRRDR) with a rectangular cavity. In this paper, the cause and internal mechanism of Fano resonance are investigated by the finite element method (FEM), and the transport characteristics are optimized by changing various parameters of the structure. The results show that the structure can achieve double Fano resonance. Due to the destructive disturbance between the wideband mode of the inverted rectangle on the bus waveguide and the narrowband mode of the SRRDR, the output spectrum of the system shows an obvious asymmetric Fano diagram, and the structural parameters of the sensor have a great influence on the Fano resonance. By changing the sensitive parameters, the optimal sensitivity of the refractive index nanosensor is 2280 nm/RIU, and the coefficient of excellence (FOM) is 76.7. In addition, the proposed high-sensitivity nanosensor will be used to detect hemoglobin concentration in blood, which has positive applications for biosensors and has great potential for future nanosensing and optical integration systems
