Given an ordinary differential equation, a trial solution containing unknowns is selected. The method then converts the problem to an equivalent minimization problem by averaging the squared residual of the differential equation for the selected trial solution. Clearly, the method fails if the integral which defines the average is undefined or infinite for the selected trial. This is precisely the case for such non-periodic solutions as heteroclinic (front or kink) and some homoclinic (dark-solitons) solutions. Based on the fact that these types of solutions have vanishing velocity at infinity, we propose to remedy to this shortcoming of the method by averaging the product of the residual and the derivative of the trial solution. In this way, the method can apply for the approximation of all relevant type of solutions of nonlinear evolution equations. The approach is simple, straightforward and accurate as its original formulation. Its effectiveness is demonstrated using a Helmholtz-Duffing oscillator.展开更多

An accurate error assessment is crucial for precise energy metering. However, tracking real-time quantitative changes in capacitive voltage transformer errors, particularly minor variations in multi-channel setups, remains challenging. This paper proposes a method for online error tracking of multi-channel capacitive voltage transformers using a Co-Prediction Matrix. The approach leverages the strong correlation between in-phase channels, particularly the invariance of the signal proportions among them. By establishing a co-prediction matrix based on these proportional relationships, The influence of voltage changes on the primary measurements is mitigated. Analyzing the relationships between the co-prediction matrices over time allows for inferring true measurement errors. Experimental validation with real-world data confirms the effectiveness of the method, demonstrating its capability to continuously track capacitive voltage transformer measurement errors online with precision over extended durations.展开更多

We modeled the Zeta converter under continuous conduction mode operation. We derived a switching control law that brings the output voltage to the desired level. Due to infinite switching occurring at the desired level, we enhanced the switching control law by allowing a sizeable output voltage ripple. We derived mathematical models that allow one to choose the desired switching frequency. In practice, the existence of the non-ideal properties of the Zeta converter results in steady-state output voltage error. By analyzing the power loss in the zeta converter, we proposed an improved switching control law that eliminates the steady-state output voltage error. The effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated with simulation results.展开更多

文摘In this paper,we develop a multi-scalar auxiliary variables(MSAV)scheme for the Cahn-Hilliard Magnetohydrodynamics system by introducing two scalar auxiliary variables(SAV).This scheme is linear,fully decoupled and unconditionally stable in energy.Subsequently,we provide a detailed implementation procedure for full decoupling.Thus,at each time step,only a series of linear differential equations with constant coefficients need to be solved.To validate the effectiveness of our approach,we conduct an error analysis for this first-order scheme.Finally,some numerical experiments are provided to verify the energy dissipation of the system and the convergence of the proposed approach.
文摘Capacitive voltage transformers (CVTs) are essential in high-voltage systems. An accurate error assessment is crucial for precise energy metering. However, tracking real-time quantitative changes in capacitive voltage transformer errors, particularly minor variations in multi-channel setups, remains challenging. This paper proposes a method for online error tracking of multi-channel capacitive voltage transformers using a Co-Prediction Matrix. The approach leverages the strong correlation between in-phase channels, particularly the invariance of the signal proportions among them. By establishing a co-prediction matrix based on these proportional relationships, The influence of voltage changes on the primary measurements is mitigated. Analyzing the relationships between the co-prediction matrices over time allows for inferring true measurement errors. Experimental validation with real-world data confirms the effectiveness of the method, demonstrating its capability to continuously track capacitive voltage transformer measurement errors online with precision over extended durations.

文摘Contour error is the deviation between the actual displacement and reference trajectory,which is directly related to the machining accuracy.Contour error compensation poses substantial challenges because of the time-varying,nonlinear,and strongly coupled characteristics of parallel machining modules.In addition,the time delay in the system reduces the timeliness of the feedback data,thereby making online contour error calculations and compensation particularly difficult.To solve this problem,the generation mechanism of the time delay of the feedback data and contour error is revealed,and a systematic method for the identification of the time-delay parameter based on Beckhoff’s tracking error calculation mechanism is proposed.The temporal alignment between the position commands and feedback data enables the online calculation of the contour error.On this basis,the tracking error of the drive axes(an important factor resulting in end-effector contour errors)is used for the contour error calculation.Considering the ambiguous parameter-setting logic of the servo drive,the servo parameter is calculated in reverse using the steady-state error to obtain the tracking error model of the drive axes.Furthermore,combined with the system time-delay model,an online correction method for the tracking error estimation model is established.To achieve an accurate mapping of the drive-axis tracking error and end-effector contour error,a bounded iterative search method for the nearest contour point and online calculation model for the contour error are respectively established.Finally,an online compensation controller for contour error is designed.Its effectiveness is verified by a machining experiment on a frame workpiece.The machining results show that the contour error reduces from 68μm to 45μm,and the finish machining accuracy increases by 34%.This study provides a feasible method for online compensation of contour error in a system with time delay.
文摘In this paper, we proposed an output voltage stabilization of a DC-DC Zeta converter using hybrid control. We modeled the Zeta converter under continuous conduction mode operation. We derived a switching control law that brings the output voltage to the desired level. Due to infinite switching occurring at the desired level, we enhanced the switching control law by allowing a sizeable output voltage ripple. We derived mathematical models that allow one to choose the desired switching frequency. In practice, the existence of the non-ideal properties of the Zeta converter results in steady-state output voltage error. By analyzing the power loss in the zeta converter, we proposed an improved switching control law that eliminates the steady-state output voltage error. The effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated with simulation results.
文摘Thermal errors in CNC machine tools,particularly those involving the spindle,significantly affect machining accuracy and performance.These errors,caused by temperature fluctuations in the spindle and surrounding components,result in dimensional deviations that can lead to poor part quality and reduced precision in high-speed manufacturing processes.This paper explores thermal error modeling and compensation methods for the spindle of five-axis CNC machine tools.A detailed analysis of the heat generation,transfer mechanisms,and finite element analysis(FEA)is presented to develop accurate thermal error models.Compensation techniques,such as model-based methods,sensor-based methods,real-time compensation algorithms,and hybrid approaches,are critically reviewed.This study also discusses the challenges in real-time compensation and the integration of thermal error compensation with machine tool control systems.The objective is to provide a comprehensive understanding of thermal error phenomena and their compensation strategies,ultimately contributing to the enhancement of machining accuracy in advanced manufacturing applications.

文摘The challenge of enhancing the generalization capacity of reinforcement learning(RL)agents remains a formidable obstacle.Existing RL methods,despite achieving superhuman performance on certain benchmarks,often struggle with this aspect.A potential reason is that the benchmarks used for training and evaluation may not adequately offer a diverse set of transferable tasks.Although recent studies have developed bench-marking environments to address this shortcoming,they typically fall short in providing tasks that both ensure a solid foundation for generalization and exhibit significant variability.To overcome these limitations,this work introduces the concept that‘objects are composed of more fundamental components’in environment design,as implemented in the proposed environment called summon the magic(StM).This environment generates tasks where objects are derived from extensible and shareable basic components,facilitating strategy reuse and enhancing generalization.Furthermore,two new metrics,adaptation sensitivity range(ASR)and parameter correlation coefficient(PCC),are proposed to better capture and evaluate the generalization process of RL agents.Experimental results show that increasing the number of basic components of the object reduces the proximal policy optimization(PPO)agent’s training-testing gap by 60.9%(in episode reward),significantly alleviating overfitting.Additionally,linear variations in other environmental factors,such as the training monster set proportion and the total number of basic components,uniformly decrease the gap by at least 32.1%.These results highlight StM’s effectiveness in benchmarking and probing the generalization capabilities of RL algorithms.

文摘Most of the existing direction of arrival(DOA)estimation algorithms are applied under the assumption that the array manifold is ideal.In practical engineering applications,the existence of non-ideal conditions such as mutual coupling between array elements,array amplitude and phase errors,and array element position errors leads to defects in the array manifold,which makes the performance of the algorithm decline rapidly or even fail.In order to solve the problem of DOA estimation in the presence of amplitude and phase errors and array element position errors,this paper introduces the first-order Taylor expansion equivalent model of the received signal under the uniform linear array from the Bayesian point of view.In the solution,the amplitude and phase error parameters and the array element position error parameters are regarded as random variables obeying the Gaussian distribution.At the same time,the expectation-maximization algorithm is used to update the probability distribution parameters,and then the two error parameters are solved alternately to obtain more accurate DOA estimation results.Finally,the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified by simulation and experiment.

文摘The fragility and stochastic behavior of quantum sources make it crucial to witness the topology of quantum networks.Most previous theoretical methods are based on perfect assumptions of quantum measurements.In this work,we propose a method to witness network topology under imperfect assumptions of quantum measurements.We show that the discrimination between star and triangle networks depends on the specific error tolerances of local measurements.This extends recent results for witnessing the triangle network[Phys.Rev.Lett.132240801(2024)].
