Description
Summary:Immersed tube tunnel serves as a preferred method of construction in large underwater tunnel engineering. In this work, modified quantum particle swarm optimization for translation control of immersed tunnel element with pontoons is studied aiming at its specific configuration. The translation control model is built based on the resistances of immersed tunnel element and two floating pontoons. To expand the search space, particles are coded according to Bloch coordinates. To make full use of three positions in each particle, they are selected with certain probabilities in accordance with the corresponding fitness values. Main dimension change and phase shift are implemented to improve the efficiency of velocity update for particles. Simulation results of Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge project delivers performance improvement of the proposed method.
