[0241] Embodiment:
[0242] In the safety shoe manufacturing project of a certain mine, in view of the problem that the shoe sole is seriously worn in the complex scene of workers working on sandstone pavement, high humidity environment and gravel slope for a long time, the implementer decides to use the method of the present application to optimize the wear-resistant material layout of safety shoes.
[0243] In June 2024, a mine quarry safety shoe manufacturing project was launched. The first phase of the project tested the safety shoes currently used by workers and found that the wear and tear on different parts of the shoe soles was significantly different. For example, the shoe of worker A101, after 45 days of continuous use, the wear depth of the outer edge of the forefoot was 5.6 mm, while the heel area was only 1.2 mm. This difference in wear and tear led to early failure of the shoe sole, with an average service life of only 90 days and significant material waste.
[0244] To solve this problem, the implementer collected wear and tear data from the safety shoes of 20 consecutive workers. The test method included installing intelligent sensors on the shoe soles to record the force and wear of each step. The final data set included wear depth, wear area, and stress values. In the example, the average wear depth of the forefoot of shoe A101 was 5.4 mm, the heel was 1.0 mm, and the middle part was evenly worn with an average of 3.2 mm. Combined with the fractal algorithm, a fractal characteristic value distribution graph of different parts of the shoe sole was generated. The graph showed that the fractal characteristic values of the outer edge (number R4) and the inner edge (number R3) of the forefoot were 1.52 and 1.48, which were high priority areas, while the fractal characteristic values of the middle and heel areas were lower, averaging 1.20.
[0245] In the optimization phase, the implementer input the data into the ant colony optimization algorithm model, initialized the ant colony parameters (100 ants, 50 maximum iterations), and assigned the initial concentration of pheromone according to the priority of the fractal characteristic values. Each ant generated a material layout path in the simulated environment according to the path transition probability. In the example, the path selected by Ant-07 in the 3rd iteration covered the key areas of the forefoot and heel, but did not consider the middle area, with an adaptability value of 0.65. Ant-18, on the other hand, covered all high-priority areas in its path, with an adaptability value of 0.88.
[0246] By the 28th iteration, the model converged and generated the optimal path, outputting the distribution scheme of the wear-resistant material. Specifically, the outer edge (R4) and the inner edge (R3) of the forefoot used high-wear-resistant material with a thickness of 5 mm; the middle area (R2, R5) used medium-wear-resistant material with a thickness of 3 mm; and the heel area (R6) used ordinary material with a thickness of 2 mm. The entire optimization process took 3 hours, which was about 60% shorter than the traditional experience-based design method.
[0247] The implementer then manufactured 10 pairs of safety shoes according to the optimization scheme and conducted a 30-day mine field test, the average wear depth of the forefoot of shoe No. A102 was reduced to 1.8 mm at the end of the test, and the wear depths of the heel and the middle part were 0.5 mm and 1.2 mm respectively, the sole remained good functionality, compared with the safety shoes designed by the traditional method, the service life of the sole was significantly improved, and the material use cost was reduced.
[0248] By comparison with the traditional method, the specific data are as follows in Table 1:
[0249] Table 1 Comparison of key performances of the present application and the traditional method in the optimization process of wear-resistant material layout of safety shoes
[0250] Indicator Method of the invention Conventional method Average service life (days) 150 90 Material cost saving rate (%) 20 0 High priority area coverage 98% 70% Optimization time (hours) 3 7
[0251] In the whole embodiment, the implementer solves not only the problems of short service life and high cost caused by serious wear of the sole, but also improves the optimization efficiency, realizes scientific design and efficient production of wear-resistant material layout of safety shoes.
[0252] The present application introduces a spatial fractal algorithm to construct a fractal feature model of the surface of the safety shoes, accurately quantifies the complex wear characteristics into a fractal feature value, and uses the fractal feature value to guide the initial pheromone distribution and path search strategy of the ant colony optimization algorithm, compared with the traditional single optimization algorithm, the present application distributes more initial concentration of pheromone in the high wear complexity area and significantly improves the coverage rate of the high priority area through the reinforcement of the pheromone update mechanism, effectively avoids the limitation of the ant colony algorithm falling into local optimum due to the randomness of path search.
[0253] The present application establishes a multi-objective optimization model by comprehensively considering the wear performance, material cost, weight distribution and comfort according to the actual application requirements of the safety shoes, realizes effective balance of wear-resistant performance and cost control through weight adjustment of the path objective function and setting of dynamic constraint conditions, ensures reasonable distribution of high-quality materials through joint optimization of the fractal feature value and the fitness value in the high wear area, and reduces the material waste in the low wear area.
[0254] The present application introduces a dynamic reinforcement mechanism in the path pheromone update process to adaptively enhance the pheromone of the high priority area with high fractal feature value, ensures the global adaptability and flexibility of the path search, and through dynamic adjustment of the comprehensive optimization target value and application of the global convergence criterion, can adapt to the changes of the wear characteristics in different use scenarios in real time, and always maintains the global optimal performance of the optimized layout.
[0255] The above merely describes preferred specific embodiments of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto, and any person skilled in the art, according to the technical solution and inventive concept of the present application, makes equivalent replacement or change within the technical range disclosed by the present application, which should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
