Fuzzy optimal control of multilayer coverage based on radon exhalation dynamics in uranium tailings by Meirong Zhang, Jianyong Dai

“…In an attempt to address the issue, a dynamic model of radon exhalation with multilayer coverage is constructed using radon percolation-diffusion migration equation, and triangular membership functions inscribe the model parameters; the objective functions of the left and right equations of the model are constructed, and their extreme value intervals are obtained using immunogenetic algorithm. Then, subject to the total cost and thickness of multilayer covering materials, the fuzzy objective and constraint models of radon exhalation are constructed, and the fuzzy aggregation function is reconstructed according to the importance of the fuzzy objective and constraint models, where ultimately, the optimal radon control decision by swarm intelligence algorithm under different possibility levels and importance conditions can be obtained. …”
