These overhead power lines (L-213, L-214) connect the 220/110/35 kV “Songino” substation with the “Mandal” substation and form system networks. This paper presents the challenges encountered when implementing single-phase automatic reclosing (SPAR) devices and compares the changes in power system parameters before and after SPAR deployment for a long 220 kV line. Simulations and analyses were carried out using DIgSILENT PowerFactory software, focusing on rotor angle stability, and the overall impact on the power system during short-circuit faults. The evaluation also utilized measurement data from the Wide Area Monitoring System (WAMS) to compare system behavior pre- and post-implementation of SPAR. The findings reveal that SPAR significantly enhances system reliability and stability, effectively mitigating the risk of oscillations and stability loss triggered by short circuits. This improvement contributes to a more resilient power system, reducing the potential for disturbances caused by faults.展开更多

文摘Radio Frequency Fingerprint Identification(RFFI)technology provides a means of identifying spurious signals.This technology has been widely used in solving Automatic Dependent Surveillance–Broadcast(ADS-B)signal spoofing problems.However,the effects of circuit changes over time often lead to a decline in identification accuracy within open-time set.This paper proposes an ADS-B transmitter identification method to solve the degradation of identification accuracy.First,a real-time data processing system is established to receive and store ADS-B signals to meet the conditions for open-time set.The system possesses the following functionalities:data collection,data parsing,feature extraction,and identity recognition.Subsequently,a two-dimensional TimeFrequency Feature Diagram(TFFD)is proposed as a signal pre-processing method.The TFFD is constructed from the received ADS-B signal and the reconstructed signal for input to the recognition model.Finally,incorporating a frequency offset layer into the Swin Transformer architecture,a novel recognition network framework is proposed.This integration can enhance the network recognition accuracy and robustness by tailoring to the specific characteristics of ADSB signals.Experimental results indicate that the proposed recognition architecture achieves recognition accuracy of 95.86%in closed-time set and 84.33%in open-time set,surpassing other algorithms.
文摘Fluctuating voltage levels in power grids necessitate automatic voltage regulators(AVRs)to ensure stability.This study examined the modeling and control of AVR in hydroelectric power plants using model predictive control(MPC),which utilizes an extensive mathe-matical model of the voltage regulation system to optimize the control actions over a defined prediction horizon.This predictive feature enables MPC to minimize voltage deviations while accounting for operational constraints,thereby improving stability and performance under dynamic conditions.Thefindings were compared with those derived from an optimal proportional integral derivative(PID)con-troller designed using the artificial bee colony(ABC)algorithm.Although the ABC-PID method adjusts the PID parameters based on historical data,it may be difficult to adapt to real-time changes in system dynamics under constraints.Comprehensive simulations assessed both frameworks,emphasizing performance metrics such as disturbance rejection,response to load changes,and resilience to uncertainties.The results show that both MPC and ABC-PID methods effectively achieved accurate voltage regulation;however,MPC excelled in controlling overshoot and settling time—recording 0.0%and 0.25 s,respectively.This demonstrates greater robustness compared to conventional control methods that optimize PID parameters based on performance criteria derived from actual system behavior,which exhibited settling times and overshoots exceeding 0.41 s and 5.0%,respectively.The controllers were implemented using MATLAB/Simulink software,indicating a significant advancement for power plant engineers pursuing state-of-the-art automatic voltage regulations.

文摘Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast(ADS-B)technology,with its open signal sharing,faces substantial security risks from false signals and spoofing attacks when broadcasting Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV)information.This paper proposes a security position verification technique based on Multilateration(MLAT)to detect false signals,ensuring UAV safety and reliable airspace operations.First,the proposed method estimates the current position of the UAV by calculating the Time Difference of Arrival(TDOA),Time Sum of Arrival(TSOA),and Angle of Arrival(AOA)information.Then,this estimated position is compared with the ADS-B message to eliminate false UAV signals.Furthermore,a localization model based on TDOA/TSOA/AOA is established by utilizing reliable reference sources for base station time synchronization.Additionally,an improved Chan-Taylor algorithm is developed,incorporating the Constrained Weighted Least Squares(CWLS)method to initialize UAV position calculations.Finally,a false signal detection method is proposed to distinguish between true and false positioning targets.Numerical simulation results indicate that,at a positioning error threshold of 150 m,the improved Chan-Taylor algorithm based on TDOA/TSOA/AOA achieves 100%accuracy coverage,significantly enhancing localization precision.And the proposed false signal detection method achieves a detection accuracy rate of at least 90%within a 50-meter error range.
文摘In order to increase the stability of the Mongolia power system, a single-phase automatic reclosing device (SPAR) was introduced on double-circuit power lines built with a size of 330 kV, operating on a voltage of 220 kV and a length of 250 km. These overhead power lines (L-213, L-214) connect the 220/110/35 kV “Songino” substation with the “Mandal” substation and form system networks. This paper presents the challenges encountered when implementing single-phase automatic reclosing (SPAR) devices and compares the changes in power system parameters before and after SPAR deployment for a long 220 kV line. Simulations and analyses were carried out using DIgSILENT PowerFactory software, focusing on rotor angle stability, and the overall impact on the power system during short-circuit faults. The evaluation also utilized measurement data from the Wide Area Monitoring System (WAMS) to compare system behavior pre- and post-implementation of SPAR. The findings reveal that SPAR significantly enhances system reliability and stability, effectively mitigating the risk of oscillations and stability loss triggered by short circuits. This improvement contributes to a more resilient power system, reducing the potential for disturbances caused by faults.
文摘The increasing prevalence of violent incidents in public spaces has created an urgent need for intelligent surveillance systems capable of detecting dangerous objects in real time.While traditional video surveillance relies on human monitoring,this approach suffers from limitations such as fatigue and delayed response times.This study addresses these challenges by developing an automated detection system using advanced deep learning techniques to enhance public safety.Our approach leverages state-of-the-art convolutional neural networks(CNNs),specifically You Only Look Once version 4(YOLOv4)and EfficientDet,for real-time object detection.The system was trained on a comprehensive dataset of over 50,000 images,enhanced through data augmentation techniques to improve robustness across varying lighting conditions and viewing angles.Cloud-based deployment on Amazon Web Services(AWS)ensured scalability and efficient processing.Experimental evaluations demonstrated high performance,with YOLOv4 achieving 92%accuracy and processing images in 0.45 s,while EfficientDet reached 93%accuracy with a slightly longer processing time of 0.55 s per image.Field tests in high-traffic environments such as train stations and shopping malls confirmed the system’s reliability,with a false alarm rate of only 4.5%.The integration of automatic alerts enabled rapid security responses to potential threats.The proposed CNN-based system provides an effective solution for real-time detection of dangerous objects in video surveillance,significantly improving response times and public safety.While YOLOv4 proved more suitable for speed-critical applications,EfficientDet offered marginally better accuracy.Future work will focus on optimizing the system for low-light conditions and further reducing false positives.This research contributes to the advancement of AI-driven surveillance technologies,offering a scalable framework adaptable to various security scenarios.
文摘In this paper,the author follows the trail of C.Malabou,Q.Meillassoux,and G.Deleuze and tries to test three philosophical concepts that seem to be particularly threatened in the era of automatic digital reproduction.These three concepts are plasticity(defended for many years by C.Malabou),contingency(reconstructed by Q.Meillassoux),and virtuality(developed by G.Deleuze).The main task of the text will be to reflect on which of these three concepts better protects our thinking against automation and stays faithful to the ideal of creativity.In what sense are plasticity,contingency,and the possibility of virtualization the a priori condition of any transformation,physical or intellectual,affective or conceptual metamorphosis?In what sense are these three concepts the only conditions for the survival of every living being?Would a being without contingency,plasticity,and disposition to virtualization simply be a dead being?
文摘BACKGROUND Depression is a leading global health concern with high suicide rates and recurrence.Cognitive models suggest that mental pain and automatic thoughts are central to depression's impact.The hypothesis is that self-compassion will be negatively associated with mental pain,mediated by automatic thoughts.AIM To determine the mediating role of automatic thoughts in the relationship between self-compassion and mental pain in individuals with depression.METHODS This cross-sectional study included 389 inpatients with depression from Tianjin Anding Hospital.Participants completed the Self-Compassion Scale-Chinese Version(SCS-C),Automatic Thought Questionnaire(ATQ),and Orbach&Mikulincer Mental Pain Scale-Chinese Version(OMMP).Data were analyzed using Pearson correlations,multiple linear regressions,and mediation analysis.RESULTS The SCS-C total score was 68.95±14.89,ATQ was 87.02±28.91,and OMMP was 129.01±36.74.Correlation analysis showed mental pain was positively associated with automatic thoughts(r=0.802,P<0.001)and negatively with selfcompassion(r=-0.636,P<0.001).Regression analysis indicated automatic thoughts(β=0.623,P<0.001)and self-compassion(β=-0.301,P<0.001)significantly predicted mental pain.Mediation analysis confirmed automatic thoughts partially mediated the relationship between self-compassion and mental pain(ab=-0.269,95%CI:-0.363 to-0.212).CONCLUSION Self-compassion is inversely related to mental pain in depression,with automatic thoughts playing a mediating role.These findings suggest potential therapeutic targets for alleviating mental pain in depressed patients.

文摘A rotary sealing device that automatically compensates for wear is designed to address the issues of easy wear and the short service life of the rotary sealing device with automatic wear compensation in mining machinery.After the end face of the guide sleeve wears out,it still tightly adheres to the sealing valve seat under the pressure difference,achieving automatic wear compensation.Based on fluid-solid coupling technology,the structural strength of the rotary sealing device was checked.The influence of factors on the sealing performance of rotary sealing devices was studied using the control variable method.The results show that as the pressure of water increases,the leakage rate of the sealing device decreases,and after 30 MPa,the leakage rate is almost 0 mL/h.The temperature of the rotating sealing device increases with the increase of rotation speed or pressure,and the temperature is more affected by the rotation speed factor.The frictional torque increases with increasing pressure and is independent of rotational speed.Comprehensive analysis shows that the wear resistance and reliability level of the sealing guide sleeve material is PVDF>PEEK>PE>PA.This study designs a high-pressure automatic compensation wear rotary sealing device and selects the optimal sealing material,providing technical support for the application of high-pressure water jet in mining machinery.

文摘Brain tumors are neoplastic diseases caused by the proliferation of abnormal cells in brain tissues,and their appearance may lead to a series of complex symptoms.However,current methods struggle to capture deeper brain tumor image feature information due to the variations in brain tumor morphology,size,and complex background,resulting in low detection accuracy,high rate of misdiagnosis and underdiagnosis,and challenges in meeting clinical needs.Therefore,this paper proposes the CMS-YOLO network model for multi-category brain tumor detection,which is based on the You Only Look Once version 10(YOLOv10s)algorithm.This model innovatively integrates the Convolutional Medical UNet extended block(CMUNeXt Block)to design a brand-new CSP Bottleneck with 2 convolutions(C2f)structure,which significantly enhances the ability to extract features of the lesion area.Meanwhile,to address the challenge of complex backgrounds in brain tumor detection,a Multi-Scale Attention Aggregation(MSAA)module is introduced.The module integrates features of lesions at different scales,enabling the model to effectively capture multi-scale contextual information and enhance detection accuracy in complex scenarios.Finally,during the model training process,the Shape-IoU loss function is employed to replace the Complete-IoU(CIoU)loss function for optimizing bounding box regression.This ensures that the predicted bounding boxes generated by the model closely match the actual tumor contours,thereby further enhancing the detection precision.The experimental results show that the improved method achieves 94.80%precision,93.60%recall,96.20%score,and 79.60%on the MRI for Brain Tumor with Bounding Boxes dataset.Compared to the YOLOv10s model,this represents improvements of 1.0%,1.1%,1.0%,and 1.1%,respectively.The method can achieve automatic detection and localization of three distinct categories of brain tumors—glioma,meningioma,and pituitary tumor,which can accurately detect and identify brain tumors,assist doctors in early diagnosis,and promote the development of early treatment.

文摘The inherent limitations of 2D object detection,such as inadequate spatial reasoning and susceptibility to environmental occlusions,pose significant risks to the safety and reliability of autonomous driving systems.To address these challenges,this paper proposes an enhanced 3D object detection framework(FastSECOND)based on an optimized SECOND architecture,designed to achieve rapid and accurate perception in autonomous driving scenarios.Key innovations include:(1)Replacing the Rectified Linear Unit(ReLU)activation functions with the Gaussian Error Linear Unit(GELU)during voxel feature encoding and region proposal network stages,leveraging partial convolution to balance computational efficiency and detection accuracy;(2)Integrating a Swin-Transformer V2 module into the voxel backbone network to enhance feature extraction capabilities in sparse data;and(3)Introducing an optimized position regression loss combined with a geometry-aware Focal-EIoU loss function,which incorporates bounding box geometric correlations to accelerate network convergence.While this study currently focuses exclusively on the detection of the Car category,with experiments conducted on the Car class of the KITTI dataset,future work will extend to other categories such as Pedestrian and Cyclist to more comprehensively evaluate the generalization capability of the proposed framework.Extensive experimental results demonstrate that our framework achieves a more effective trade-off between detection accuracy and speed.Compared to the baseline SECOND model,it achieves a 21.9%relative improvement in 3D bounding box detection accuracy on the hard subset,while reducing inference time by 14 ms.These advancements underscore the framework’s potential for enabling real-time,high-precision perception in autonomous driving applications.
