To solve the decision problem of train stopping schemes, this paper introduces the static game into the optimal configuration of stopping time to realize the rational decision of train operation. First, a train energy consumption model is constructed with the lowest energy consumption of train operation as the optimization objective. In addition, a Mustang optimization algorithm based on cubic chaos mapping, the population hierarchy mechanism, the golden sine strategy, and the Levy flight strategy was designed for solving the problem of it being easy for the traditional population intelligence algorithm to fall into a local optimum when solving complex problems. Lastly, simulation experiments were conducted to compare the designed algorithm with PSO, GA, WOA, GWO, and other cutting-edge optimization algorithms in cross-sectional simulations, and the results show that the algorithm had excellent global optimization finding and convergence capabilities. The simulation results show that the research in this paper can provide effective decisions for the dwell time of trains at multiple stations, and promote the intelligent operation of the train system.

Upper limb exoskeleton is gradually used in industrial production because of its flexibility, safety, and ease of wear. To improve the load reduction effect of the upper limb exoskeleton in power grid operation, this paper first establishes an efficiency optimization model considering the number of gears, transmission ratio, and pressure angle of upper limb exoskeleton transmission joint gears. Further, an exoskeleton load reduction model based on the joint optimization of multiple parameters of the upper limb exoskeleton is constructed by combining the muscle force application fatigue evaluation. For the above model, a hybrid simulated annealing-flash connection process algorithm based on Cubic mapping and golden sine is designed for the solution. To address the shortcomings of the standard LAPO, Cubic mapping, simulated annealing algorithm, and golden sine operator are introduced for improvement, producing high-quality initial solutions through the traversal of Cubic chaotic sequences, hybrid simulated annealing algorithm to enhance the global search capability of the algorithm, and further incorporating golden sine operator to strengthen the local search capability of the algorithm. In the simulation section, the designed Improved Lightning Connection Process Algorithm (ILAPO) is compared horizontally with cutting-edge swarm intelligence algorithms such as LAPO, PSO, and HBA to verify the feasibility of the model in this paper in the exoskeleton domain and the efficiency of the designed algorithm.

As industrial technology continues to advance through integration, society's demand for electricity is rapidly increasing. To meet the requirements of refined grid management and address the elevated challenges arising from the increased electrical load, this paper delves into the investigation of distribution vehicle scheduling for the practical scenario of batch rotation of smart meters. Initially, based on the practical distribution task requirements of a provincial metrology verification center, a multi-level optimization model is constructed for the batch rotation and distribution vehicle scheduling of smart meters. The primary objective is to maximize the enhancement of smart meter distribution efficiency while minimizing the overall distribution cost. Moreover, this paper introduces a refined Grey Wolf Optimization algorithm (OLC-GWO) based on Opposition-based Learning, Levy flight strategy, and Cauchy mutation to solve the model. By generating an opposite population to improve the quality of initial feasible solutions and further harnessing the global search capabilities of Levy flight and Cauchy mutation operators, the algorithm's effectiveness is enhanced. The algorithm is subjected to testing using multiple benchmark functions and its performance is compared with variants of GWO, as well as several cutting-edge intelligent optimization algorithms including Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Harris Hawks Optimization (HHO), and Honey Bee Algorithm (HBA). The results indicate that OLC-GWO exhibits excellent performance in terms of convergence speed and optimization capability. Finally, the improved algorithm is subjected to simulation experiments by incorporating order data from the practical distribution operations of a provincial metrology verification center. The outcomes verify the efficiency of the proposed algorithm, reinforcing the practical significance of the established model in addressing the real-world challenge of batch rotation and distribution vehicle scheduling for smart meters.
