Uncertain Programming Criteria and Algorithms in Designing the Thermal Maintenance System of a Lunar Base
摘要
Abstract
Efforts to design the thermal maintenance system at a lunar base are complicated by the epistemic uncertainty of the parameters. This is addressed by adopting Liu uncertainty theory, in which analytical expressions are derived for monotonic functions and independent uncertain variables. These expressions are determinate counterparts of the target functions and constraints. Using these determinate counterparts, uncertain programming problems may be reduced to mathematical programming problems. That ensures computational efficiency.
