Therefore, an ITCG with field-of-view (FOV) constraints based on biased proportional navigation guidance (PNG) is developed in this paper. The remaining flight time (time-to-go) estimation method is derived considering aerodynamic force and gravity. The number of differential equations is reduced and the integration step is increased by changing the integral variable, which makes it possible to obtain time-to-go through integration. An impact time controller with FOV constraints is proposed by analyzing the influence of the biased term on time-to-go and FOV constraint. Then, numerical simulations are performed to verify the correctness and superiority of the method.展开更多

文摘This paper examines a model that combines vortex generators and leading-edge tubercles for controlling the laminar separation bubble(LSB)over an airfoil at low Reynolds numbers(Re).This new concept of passive flow control technique utilizing a tubercle and vortex generator(VG)close to the leading edge was analyzed numerically for a NACA0015 airfoil.In this study,the Shear Stress Transport(SST)turbulence model was employed in the numerical modelling.Numerical modelling was completed using the ANSYS-Fluent 18.2 solver.Analyses were conducted to investigate the flow pattern and understand the underlying LSB control phenomena that enabled the new passive flow control method to provide this significant performance benefit.The findings indicated that the new concept of passive flow control technique suppressed the formation of an LSB at the suction surface of the NACA0015 airfoil,resulting in a higher lift coefficient and improved aerodynamic performance.Improvements in LSB dynamics and aerodynamic performance through the passive flow control method lead to increased energy output and enhanced stability.

文摘Feedforward control is one of the most effective control techniques to increase the robot’s tracking accuracy.However,most of the dynamic models used in the feedforward controllers are linearly simplified such that the nonlinear and time-varying characteristics of dynamics in the workspace are ignored.In this paper,an iterative tuning method for feedforward control of parallel manipulators by taking nonlinear dynamics into account is proposed.Based on the robot rigid-body dynamic model,a feedforward controller considering the dynamic nonlinearity is presented.An iterative tuning method is given to iteratively update the feedforward controller by minimizing the root mean square(RMS)of the joint errors at each cycle.The effectiveness and extrapolation capability of the proposed method are validated through the experiments on a 2-DOF parallel manipulator.This research proposes an iterative tuning method for feedforward control of parallel manipulators considering nonlinear dynamics,which has better extrapolation capability in the whole workspace of manipulators.

文摘Vehicle collision avoidance(CA)has been widely studied to improve road traffic safety.However,most evasion assistance control methods face challenges in effectively coordinating collision avoidance safety and human-machine interaction conflict.This paper introduces a novel multi-mode evasion assistance control(MEAC)method for intelligent distributed-drive electric vehicles.A reference safety area is established considering the vehicle safety and stability requirements,which serves as a guiding principle for evading obstacles.The proposed method includes two control modes:Shared-EAC(S-EAC)and Emergency-EAC(E-EAC).In S-EAC,an integrated human-machine authority allocation mechanism is designed to mitigate conflicts between human drivers and the control system during collision avoidance.The E-EAC mode is tailored for situations where the driver has no collision avoidance behavior and utilizes model predictive control to generate additional yaw moments for collision avoidance.Simulation and experimental results indicate that the proposed method reduces human-machine conflict and assists the driver in safe collision avoidance in the S-EAC mode under various driver conditions.In addition,it enhances the vehicle responsiveness and reduces the extent of emergency steering in the E-EAC mode while improving the safety and stability during the collision avoidance process.

文摘In the aerospace industry,double-sided friction stir welding has gradually become a crucial solid-state welding technology for rocket manufacturing.During the welding process,the welding equipment on both sides may encounter complex conditions involving unsynchronized collaborative movements.The resulting bending stress and destructive vibration affect workpiece processing quality.Therefore,this study proposes an adaptive admittance-based dual-robot collaborative forging force control method for double-sided friction stir welding.Specifically,the following steps are required:First,we analyzed the mechanism model of the hybrid robot and indirectly estimated the forging force value of friction stir welding using the Jacobian matrix of the hybrid robot.Second,an adaptive variable admittance controller was designed based on the reference admittance model with ideal stiffness.Subsequently,an adaptive variable admittance controller was applied to the dual-machine hybrid robot.By adjusting the welding trajectory and correcting the position error,the forging force was corrected,allowing adaptive tracking control of the forging force in complex environments.Finally,we conducted double-sided friction stir welding experiments to compare and verify the effectiveness of the adaptive tracking control algorithm for the forging force.

文摘Aiming at the challenge of complex load balancing coordination for a three-phase four-leg(3P4L)based multi-ended low voltage flexible DC distribution system(M-LVDC)considering unbalanced power compensation,this paper proposes a phase-split power decoupling unbalanced compensation strategy based load balancing strategy for 3P4L based M-LVDC.Firstly,the topology and operation principle of the 3P4L-based M-LVDC system is introduced,and quasi-proportional resonant(QPR)based phase-split power current control for the 3P4L converter is proposed.Secondly,a load-balancing control strategy considering unbalanced compensation for 3P4L-based MLVDC is presented,in which the control diagrams for each 3P4L-based converter are detailed.The core idea of the proposed strategy is to comprehensively consider the imbalance compensation and load rate balancing between the two areas to calculate the split-phase power and current reference values of each 3P4L converter and achieve the static error-free tracking of the reference values through the QPR current inner-loop control.These reference values are then tracked with zero steady-state error using QPR current inner-loop control.Finally,the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy is verified through a 3P4L M-LVDC case study conducted on the PSCAD/EMTDC software.Theresults indicate that the proposed method not only can reduce the three-phase imbalance degrees from>20% to<0.5%,but also achieve excellent balanced load rates,with the load-rate difference smaller than 1.5%.

文摘The wireless intelligent water distributor is an emerging technology increasingly applied in oilfields to enhance oil recovery.Although the system has many advantages,the high energy consumption of its integrated control valve hinders its adoption in long-term applications.However,existing studies have not sufficiently captured the mechanical characteristics of forces acting on the spool,particularly under the influence of multiple coupled factors,such as fit clearance,deflection,and fluid-structure interaction,which limit the ability to accurately assess energy consumption.To address this gap,this study develops a comprehensive energy consumption model of the control valve,specifically addressing the design of fit clearance,a critical factor influencing energy efficiency.Utilizing a loosely coupled fluid-structure interaction algorithm,we established a mechanical model of the spool to investigate the fluid-solid interaction mechanisms within the fit clearance.For the first time,the effects of contact friction on energy consumption are incorporated.An optimization algorithm was then applied to determine the optimal fit clearance by balancing low friction and minimal leakage.The validity of our numerical model was confirmed through comparison with both theoretical and experimental results.Our results demonstrate that the fit clearance has a pronounced impact on the valve's energy usage:the total maximum energy consumption for one full stroke with a 0.05 mm clearance is 3.33%higher than with a 0.25 mm clearance.When the spool is independently driven,this value is 7.21%.The optimal fit clearance is determined to be 0.127 mm.These results can improve the overall performance and extend the service life of intelligent water distributors.The findings and models developed in this study provide essential theoretical support and practical strategies for optimizing control valve energy consumption.

文摘The integrated energy systems(IESs)offer a practical solution for achieving low-carbon targets in residential buildings.However,IES encounters several challenges related to increased energy consumption and costs due to fluctuations in renewable energy generation.Leveraging building flexibility to address these power fluctuations within IES is a promising strategy,which requires coordinated control between air-conditioning systems and other IES components.This study proposes a cross-time-scale control framework that contains optimal scheduling and on-the-fly flexible control to reduce the cost impacts of a residential IES system equipped with photovoltaic(PV)panels,batteries,a heat pump,and a domestic hot water tank.The method involves three key steps:solar irradiance prediction,day-ahead optimal scheduling of energy storage,and intra-day flexible control of the heat pump.The method is validated through a high-fidelity residential building model with actual weather and energy usage data in Frankfurt,Germany.Results reveal that the proposed method limits the cost increase to just 2.67% compared to the day-ahead schedule,whereas the cost could increase by 7.39% without the flexible control.Additionally,computational efficiency is enhanced by transforming the mixed-integer programming(MIP)into nonlinear programming(NLP)problem via introducing action-exclusive constraints.This approach offers valuable support for residential IES operations.

文摘The 110-mining method,a rising and revolutionary non-pillar longwall mining method,can obviously expand coal extraction ratio and minimize roadway incidents.However,in case of composite hard roof,problems such as difficulty in commanding the entry steadiness and insufficient fragmentation and bulking of the goaf gangue are prevalent.In this study,a 110-mining method for roadway surrounding rock stability control technology based on a compensation mechanism was proposed.First,the composite hard roof cutting short cantilever beam(SCB)model was built and the compensation mechanism including stress and space dual compensation was studied.Subsequently,the controllable elements influencing the roadway steadiness were confirmed to consequently put forward a control technology based on stress compensation for entry support and space compensation for the fragmentation and bulking of goaf gangue.The control technology was finally verified through onsite engineering experiments in terms of composite hard roof.The adoption of the 110-mining method with compensation control technology indicated good support effect on the roadway.The initial and residual expansion coefficients of the goaf gangue increased by 0.6 and 0.6,respectively,and the maximum and average working resistances of the working face support decreased by 10.9%and 13.8%,respectively.Consequently,the deformations of reserved entry decreased,and entry steadiness was enhanced.The presented technique and effects got probably have practical values for non-pillar mining functions in comparable field.

文摘Innovating distillation technology to improve the efficiency of distillation equipment,reduce energy consumption,and increase product purity is an important challenge for the rapid development of the distillation industry.In this paper,steady-state simulations are developed for the separated isopropanol and water systems,and the sensitive temperature stage locations are determined using sensitivity and singular value decomposition(SVD).An open-loop steady-state gain analysis of the isopropanol/water system was performed,and a series of dynamic control schemes were designed and optimized to resist±10% feed flow disturbances and ±5% feed composition disturbances,comparing the performance of the control schemes one by one through IAE error analysis.The results show that the side-stream extractive distillation separation of isopropanol and water system using a single temperature fixed reflux ratio control loop suffers from a large product shift problem.One of the key control loops is to control the isopropanol purity by controlling the bottom of the column flow rate,and the scheme performs well under both single-temperature control and dual-temperature control,effectively resisting ±10% feed flow disturbances and ±5% feed composition disturbances.The improvement of product purity can be seen from the compone nt controllers play an important role,while the feed-fo rward effect under certain conditions can also enable the system to quickly restore stability and improve the system response speed.

文摘Voltage source converters(VSCs),equipped with Pf and Q-U droop characteristics,can support a power system from both frequency and voltage.Unfortunately,overcurrent and power angle instability are still challenging aspects of VSCs under fault conditions.Therefore,fault current limitation and power angle stability are essential conditions for the safe operation of a VSC.Thus,the transient characteristics of a VSC are analyzed to guide transient control.Then,a transient control method for a VSC,considering both fault current limitation and power angle stability,is proposed.With the proposed method,power angle stability is realized by optimizing the P-f controller.On the basis of power angle control,the Q-U controller and inner current controller are improved to effectively suppress the fault current.Finally,relevant tests are performed to verify the proposed method.

文摘A drag-free satellite is an important platform for space-borne gravitational wave(GW)observation.To achieve the high-precision control of a drag-free satellite in practical engineering,an accurate dynamic model is essential.This paper presents a nonlinear model of the electrostatic effect between a satellite and a test mass(TM),and designs a model predictive controller based on the drag-free satellite model with the nonlinear electrostatic effect.To determine the analytical form of the electrostatic effect,a comprehensive theoretical analysis is performed for gravitational reference sensors(GRSs).An electrostatic force and a torque are simulated with the displacement as a varying parameter through a commercial software.Then,the results are fitted to derive the nonlinear expressions of the electrostatic effect.The model predictive controllers based on the models with the nonlinear and linear electrostatic effects are designed in the capture mode.Finally,the control results are given to show the advantages of the nonlinear electrostatic effect.

文摘In the existing impact time control guidance (ITCG) laws for moving-targets, the effects of time-varying velocity caused by aerodynamics and gravity cannot be effectively con-sidered. Therefore, an ITCG with field-of-view (FOV) constraints based on biased proportional navigation guidance (PNG) is developed in this paper. The remaining flight time (time-to-go) estimation method is derived considering aerodynamic force and gravity. The number of differential equations is reduced and the integration step is increased by changing the integral variable, which makes it possible to obtain time-to-go through integration. An impact time controller with FOV constraints is proposed by analyzing the influence of the biased term on time-to-go and FOV constraint. Then, numerical simulations are performed to verify the correctness and superiority of the method.
