Abstract
Back analysis for seepage parameters is a classic issue in hydraulic engineering seepage calculations. Considering the characteristics of inversion problems, including high dimensionality, numerous local optimal values, poor convergence performance, and excessive calculation time, a biological immune mechanism-based quantum particle swarm optimization (IQPSO) algorithm was proposed to solve the inversion problem. By introducing a concentration regulation strategy to improve the population diversity and a vaccination strategy to accelerate the convergence rate, the modified algorithm overcame the shortcomings of traditional PSO which can easily fall into a local optimum. Furthermore, a simple multicore parallel computation strategy was applied to reduce computation time. The effectiveness and practicability of IQPSO were evaluated by numerical experiments. In this paper, taking one concrete face rock-fill dam (CFRD) as a case, a back analysis for seepage parameters was accomplished by utilizing the proposed optimization algorithm and the steady seepage field of the dam was analysed by the finite element method (FEM). Compared with immune PSO and quantum PSO, the proposed algorithm had better global search ability, convergence performance, and calculation rate. The optimized back analysis could obtain the permeability coefficient of CFRD with high accuracy.
