This paper presents a three-dimensional thermal network(3DTN) model for epoxy resin encapsulated nano HFTs, which aims to precisely predict the temperature distribution inside the transformer in combination with the finite element method(FEM). A magnetothermal bidirectional coupling 3DTN model is established by analyzing the thermal conduction between the core, windings, and epoxy resin, while also considering the convection and radiation heat transfer mechanisms on the surface of the epoxy resin. The model considers the impact of loss distribution in the core and windings on the temperature field and adopts a simplified 1/2 thermal network model to reduce computational complexity. Furthermore, the results of FEM are compared with experimental results to verify the accuracy of the 3DTN model in predicting the temperature rise of nano HFT. The results show that the 3DTN model reduces errors by an average of 5.25% over the traditional two-dimensional thermal network(2DTN) model, particularly for temperature distributions in the windings and core. This paper provides a temperature rise prediction method for the thermal design and offers a theoretical basis and engineering guidance for the optimization of their thermal management systems.展开更多

First, 3D orthonormal wavelet bases are constructed, and the corresponding decomposition algorithm is developed. Then the Navier-Stokes equations are transformed into the wavelet space and the architecture for multi-scale analysis is established. From this architecture, the coarse field images in different scales are obtained and some local statistical quantities are calculated. The results show that, with the development of a mixing layer, the energy spectrum densities for different wavenumbers increase and the energy is transferred from the average flow to vortex structures in different scales. Due to the non-linear interactions between different scales, cascade processes of energy are very complex. Because vortices always roll and pair at special areas, for a definite scale, the energy is obtained from other scales at some areas while it is transferred to other scales at other areas. In addition, energy dissipation and transfer always occur where an intense interaction between vortices exists.展开更多

文摘Image watermarking is a powerful tool for media protection and can provide promising results when combined with other defense mechanisms.Image watermarking can be used to protect the copyright of digital media by embedding a unique identifier that identifies the owner of the content.Image watermarking can also be used to verify the authenticity of digital media,such as images or videos,by ascertaining the watermark information.In this paper,a mathematical chaos-based image watermarking technique is proposed using discrete wavelet transform(DWT),chaotic map,and Laplacian operator.The DWT can be used to decompose the image into its frequency components,chaos is used to provide extra security defense by encrypting the watermark signal,and the Laplacian operator with optimization is applied to the mid-frequency bands to find the sharp areas in the image.These mid-frequency bands are used to embed the watermarks by modifying the coefficients in these bands.The mid-sub-band maintains the invisible property of the watermark,and chaos combined with the second-order derivative Laplacian is vulnerable to attacks.Comprehensive experiments demonstrate that this approach is effective for common signal processing attacks,i.e.,compression,noise addition,and filtering.Moreover,this approach also maintains image quality through peak signal-to-noise ratio(PSNR)and structural similarity index metrics(SSIM).The highest achieved PSNR and SSIM values are 55.4 dB and 1.In the same way,normalized correlation(NC)values are almost 10%–20%higher than comparative research.These results support assistance in copyright protection in multimedia content.

文摘Imaging sonar devices generate sonar images by receiving echoes from objects,which are often accompanied by severe speckle noise,resulting in image distortion and information loss.Common optical denoising methods do not work well in removing speckle noise from sonar images and may even reduce their visual quality.To address this issue,a sonar image denoising method based on fuzzy clustering and the undecimated dual-tree complex wavelet transform is proposed.This method provides a perfect translation invariance and an improved directional selectivity during image decomposition,leading to richer representation of noise and edges in high frequency coefficients.Fuzzy clustering can separate noise from useful information according to the amplitude characteristics of speckle noise,preserving the latter and achieving the goal of noise removal.Additionally,the low frequency coefficients are smoothed using bilateral filtering to improve the visual quality of the image.To verify the effectiveness of the algorithm,multiple groups of ablation experiments were conducted,and speckle sonar images with different variances were evaluated and compared with existing speckle removal methods in the transform domain.The experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively improve image quality,especially in cases of severe noise,where it still achieves a good denoising performance.

文摘Stratigraphic correlations are essential for the fine-scale characterization of reservoirs.However,conventional data-driven methods that rely solely on log data struggle to construct isochronous stratigraphic frameworks for complex sedimentary environments and multi-source geological settings.In response,this study proposed an intelligent,automatic,log-seismic integrated stratigraphic correlation method that incorporates wavelet frequency-division transform(WFT)and dynamic time warping(DTW)(also referred to as the WFT-DTW method).This approach integrates seismic data as constraints into stratigraphic correlations,enabling accurate tracking of the seismic marker horizons through WFT.Under the constraints of framework construction,a DTW algorithm was introduced to correlate sublayer boundaries automatically.The effectiveness of the proposed method was verified through a stratigraphic correlation experiment on the SA0 Formation of the Xingshugang block in the Lasaxing oilfield,the Songliao Basin,China.In this block,the target layer exhibits sublayer thicknesses ranging from 5 m to 8 m,an average sandstone thickness of 2.1 m,and pronounced heterogeneity.The verification using 1760 layers in 160 post-test wells indicates that the WFT-DTW method intelligently compared sublayers in zones with underdeveloped faults and distinct marker horizons.As a result,the posterior correlation of 1682 layers was performed,with a coincidence rate of up to 95.6%.The proposed method can complement manual correlation efforts while also providing valuable technical support for the lithologic and sand body characterization of reservoirs.

文摘Centrifugal Pumps(CPs)are critical machine components in many industries,and their efficient operation and reliable Fault Diagnosis(FD)are essential for minimizing downtime and maintenance costs.This paper introduces a novel FD method to improve both the accuracy and reliability of detecting potential faults in such pumps.Theproposed method combinesWaveletCoherent Analysis(WCA)and Stockwell Transform(S-transform)scalograms with Sobel and non-local means filters,effectively capturing complex fault signatures from vibration signals.Using Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)for feature extraction,the method transforms these scalograms into image inputs,enabling the recognition of patterns that span both time and frequency domains.The CNN extracts essential discriminative features,which are then merged and passed into a Kolmogorov-Arnold Network(KAN)classifier,ensuring precise fault identification.The proposed approach was experimentally validated on diverse datasets collected under varying conditions,demonstrating its robustness and generalizability.Achieving classification accuracy of 100%,99.86%,and 99.92%across the datasets,this method significantly outperforms traditional fault detection approaches.These results underscore the potential to enhance CP FD,providing an effective solution for predictive maintenance and improving overall system reliability.
文摘Drive-by techniques for bridge health monitoring have drawn increasing attention from researchers and practitioners,in the attempt to make bridge condition-based monitoring more cost-efficient.In this work,the authors propose a drive-by approach that takes advantage from bogie vertical accelerations to assess bridge health status.To do so,continuous wavelet transform is combined with multiple sparse autoencoders that allow for damage detection and localization across bridge span.According to authors’best knowledge,this is the first case in which an unsupervised technique,which relies on the use of sparse autoencoders,is used to localize damages.The bridge considered in this work is a Warren steel truss bridge,whose finite element model is referred to an actual structure,belonging to the Italian railway line.To investigate damage detection and localization performances,different operational variables are accounted for:train weight,forward speed and track irregularity evolution in time.Two configurations for the virtual measuring channels were investigated:as a result,better performances were obtained by exploiting the vertical accelerations of both the bogies of the leading coach instead of using only one single acceleration signal.
文摘Future 6G communications will open up opportunities for innovative applications,including Cyber-Physical Systems,edge computing,supporting Industry 5.0,and digital agriculture.While automation is creating efficiencies,it can also create new cyber threats,such as vulnerabilities in trust and malicious node injection.Denialof-Service(DoS)attacks can stop many forms of operations by overwhelming networks and systems with data noise.Current anomaly detection methods require extensive software changes and only detect static threats.Data collection is important for being accurate,but it is often a slow,tedious,and sometimes inefficient process.This paper proposes a new wavelet transformassisted Bayesian deep learning based probabilistic(WT-BDLP)approach tomitigate malicious data injection attacks in 6G edge networks.The proposed approach combines outlier detection based on a Bayesian learning conditional variational autoencoder(Bay-LCVariAE)and traffic pattern analysis based on continuous wavelet transform(CWT).The Bay-LCVariAE framework allows for probabilistic modelling of generative features to facilitate capturing how features of interest change over time,spatially,and for recognition of anomalies.Similarly,CWT allows emphasizing the multi-resolution spectral analysis and permits temporally relevant frequency pattern recognition.Experimental testing showed that the flexibility of the Bayesian probabilistic framework offers a vast improvement in anomaly detection accuracy over existing methods,with a maximum accuracy of 98.21%recognizing anomalies.
文摘Cardiovascular diseases are the world’s leading cause of death;therefore cardiac health of the human heart has been a fascinating topic for decades.The electrocardiogram(ECG)signal is a comprehensive non-invasive method for determining cardiac health.Various health practitioners use the ECG signal to ascertain critical information about the human heart.In this article,swarm intelligence approaches are used in the biomedical signal processing sector to enhance adaptive hybrid filters and empirical wavelet transforms(EWTs).At first,the white Gaussian noise is added to the input ECG signal and then applied to the EWT.The ECG signals are denoised by the proposed adaptive hybrid filter.The honey badge optimization(HBO)algorithm is utilized to optimize the EWT window function and adaptive hybrid filter weight parameters.The proposed approach is simulated by MATLAB 2018a using the MIT-BIH dataset with white Gaussian,electromyogram and electrode motion artifact noises.A comparison of the HBO approach with recursive least square-based adaptive filter,multichannel least means square,and discrete wavelet transform methods has been done in order to show the efficiency of the proposed adaptive hybrid filter.The experimental results show that the HBO approach supported by EWT and adaptive hybrid filter can be employed efficiently for cardiovascular signal denoising.

文摘Nonlinear response is an important factor affecting the accuracy of three-dimensional image measurement based on the fringe structured light method.A phase compensation algorithm combined with a Hilbert transform is proposed to reduce the phase error caused by the nonlinear response of a digital projector in the three-dimensional measurement system of fringe structured light.According to the analysis of the influence of Gamma distortion on the phase calculation,the algorithm establishes the relationship model between phase error and harmonic coefficient,introduces phase shift to the signal,and keeps the signal amplitude constant while filtering out the DC component.The phase error is converted to the transform domain,and compared with the numeric value in the space domain.The algorithm is combined with a spiral phase function to optimize the Hilbert transform,so as to eliminate external noise,enhance the image quality,and get an accurate phase value.Experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively improve the accuracy and speed of phase measurement.By performing phase error compensation for free-form surface objects,the phase error is reduced by about 26%,and about 27%of the image reconstruction time is saved,which further demonstrates the feasibility and effectiveness of the method.
