During the control process with the difference control algorithm (DCA), a lower triangular matrix is derived from Cholesky decomposition of a reference spectrum matrix. The diagonal elements of the lower triangular matrix (DELTM) may become negative. These negative values have no meaning in physical significance and can cause divergence of auto-power spectrum control. A proportional root mean square control algorithm (PRMSCA) provides another method to avoid the divergence caused by negative values of DELTM, but PRMSCA cannot control the cross-power spectrum. A new control algorithm named matrix power control algorithm (MPCA) is proposed in the paper. MPCA can guarantee that DELTM is always positive in the auto-power spectrum control. MPCA can also control the cross-power spectrum. After these three control algorithms are analyzed, three-input three-output random vibration control tests are implemented on a three-axis vibration shaker. The results show the validity of the proposed MPCA.展开更多

The aim of the proposed control method is to replicate the specified references composed of auto spectral densities, cross spectral densities and kurtoses on the test article in the laboratory. It is found that the cross spectral densities will bring intractable coupling problems and induce difficulty for the control of the multioutput kurtoses. Hence, a sequential phase modification method is put forward to solve the coupling problems in multi-input multi-output non-Gaussian random vibration test. To achieve the specified responses, an improved zero memory nonlinear transformation is utilized first to modify the Fourier phases of the signals with sequential phase modification method to obtain one frame reference response signals which satisfy the reference spectra and reference kurtoses. Then, an inverse system method is used in frequency domain to obtain the continuous stationary drive signals. At the same time, the matrix power control algorithm is utilized to control the spectra and kurtoses of the response signals further. At the end of the paper, a simulation example with a cantilever beam and a vibration shaker test are implemented and the results support the proposed method very well.展开更多

A total of 340 inpatients, aged 40-79 years, with exacerbating CHF from 10 hospitals were enrolled and randomly allocated within 24 h of admission. The trial included three intervention periods. During hospitalization, the control group received western medication for CHF and the treatment group received Danhong injection with Shenfu injection or Shenmai injection. After discharge,all patients were treated with Qiliqiangxin capsules and Buyiqiangxin tablets or a placebo for 6 months. After the 6-month intervention, both groups received only continuous western medication. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality.The efficacy assessments were as follows: B-type natriuretic peptide(BNP), Lee's HF score, the 6-minute walking test(6 MWT), left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF), and the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire(MLHFQ). The safety assessments were as follows: blood and urine routine examination, hepatic and renal function, electrolytes in blood and adverse events.RESULTS: Compared with the control group, the treatment group showed a 30.99% reduction in all-cause mortality and an improved survival rate.The treatment group showed greater improvement in 6 MWT(P = 0.02) than the control group on discharge, after 12-month follow-up, there was a time-group interaction for MLHFQ(P = 0.03). Incidence rate of adverse events and other relevant safety indexes were not statistically significant between the two groups.CONCLUSION: Western medication plus TCM treatment can increase 6-minute walking distance(improve exercise tolerance) and quality of life with heart failure patients.展开更多

Both groups were given basic treat- ment with prednisone. The treatment group was given FGs, and the control group was given Jinshui- bao capsules (JCs). Treatment lasted for 6 months. The Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale (MRCDS), the Saint George's Hospital Respiratory Questionnaire (SGHRQ), pulmonary function, the Traditional Chinese Medicine Syndrome Score (TC- MSS), 6-min walking test (6MWT) and blood gas analyses were recorded before the study as well as 3 months and 6 months after treatment.RESULTS: FGs showed greater efficacy than the control in certain parameters between before the study and 6 months, and between 3 months and 6 months, in the MRCDS, some indicators in the SGHRQ, and the TCMSS. There were no significant differences between the treatment group and con- trol group in the remainder of the indices evaluat- ed. In the treatment group, there were significant differences in before and after treatment in the MRCDS, SGHRQ, TCMSS and 6MWT.展开更多

文摘为了验证汽车控制器在车辆上抵抗振动的能力,随机振动试验必不可少。合理的工装设计能保证随机振动输入载荷准确地被传递到控制器上。传统的工装设计只考虑其第1阶模态频率大于功率谱密度(Power Spectral Density,PSD)载荷的最大频率,以防止在振动过程中出现共振,而忽略了振动传递特性的影响,从而导致控制器在进行随机振动试验时出现过试验的情况。针对这一问题,对某款汽车控制器的工装振动特性进行了有限元仿真和试验。仿真和试验结果表明:不仅工装的模态要满足要求,同时要保证工装安装控制器螺栓孔处的主轴均方根(Root Mean Square,RMS)加速度偏差在±20%以内,此时工装可以比较准确地将振动台载荷传递给控制器,从而满足设计要求。
