This recognition involves understanding short-term and long-term spatial collaborative relationships among support agents and positions from long spatial–temporal trajectories. While the existing methods excel at recognizing collaborative behaviors from short trajectories, they often struggle with long spatial–temporal trajectories. To address this challenge, this paper introduces a dynamic graph method to enhance flight deck operation recognition. First, spatial–temporal collaborative relationships are modeled as a dynamic graph. Second, a discretized and compressed method is proposed to assign values to the states of this dynamic graph. To extract features that represent diverse collaborative relationships among agents and account for the duration of these relationships, a biased random walk is then conducted. Subsequently, the Swin Transformer is employed to comprehend spatial–temporal collaborative relationships, and a fully connected layer is applied to deck operation recognition. Finally, to address the scarcity of real datasets, a simulation pipeline is introduced to generate deck operations in virtual flight deck scenarios. Experimental results on the simulation dataset demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed method.展开更多

However, since Rydberg atomic receivers are nonlinear systems, mismatches between the parameters of the received amplitude modulation(AM) signals and the system's linear workspace and demodulation operating points can cause severe distortion in the demodulated signals. To address this, the article proposes a method for determining the operational parameters based on the mean square error(MSE) and total harmonic distortion(THD) assessments and presents strategies for optimizing the system's operational parameters focusing on linear response characteristics(LRC) and linear dynamic range(LDR). Specifically, we employ a method that minimizes the MSE to define the system's linear workspace, thereby ensuring the system has a good LRC while maximizing the LDR. To ensure that the signal always operates within the linear workspace, an appropriate carrier amplitude is set as the demodulation operating point. By calculating the THD at different operating points, the LRC performance within different regions of the linear workspace is evaluated, and corresponding optimization strategies based on the range of signal strengths are proposed. Moreover, to more accurately restore the baseband signal, we establish a mapping relationship between the carrier Rabi frequency and the transmitted power of the probe light, and optimize the slope of the linear demodulation function to reduce the MSE to less than 0.8×10^(-4). Finally, based on these methods for determining the operational parameters, we explore the effects of different laser Rabi frequencies on the system performance, and provide optimization recommendations. This research provides robust support for the design of high-performance Rydberg atom-based AM receivers.展开更多

文摘Electric tractors(ETs)with mounted implements form operating units.There are significant differences in parameters such as shape,firmness,and moisture content of the soil in contact with the tractor and implements when working in complex terrains such as field stubble,waterlogged silt,and loose/firm terrain.These differentiated dynamics prevent cooperation between ETs and operating implements under independent control,resulting in poor quality operations and low energy efficiency.We propose a control mechanism for ETs and implements to achieve full life cycle management of collaborative control tasks,instantaneous intertask interaction,and a multitask synchronization mechanism.To address the internal redundant communication problems caused by traditional distributed microcontrol units,we break through the underlying technology of unit data processing and interaction and develop an integrated high-performance controller structure with high processing capacity and high-and low-speed communication interfaces.On the basis of hierarchical stepwise control theory,a hierarchical real-time operating system is designed.This system realizes a preemptive kernel response of computational tasks and competitive-collaborative synchronization among tasks;overcomes the low-latency response of collaborative control tasks,instantaneous information interaction,and multitask synchronization problems;and provides system-level support for deep collaborative operation control of units.To demonstrate and validate the proposed collaborative control mechanism,a plowing collaborative operation management strategy is designed and deployed.The experimental results show that the communication delay of collaborative tasks is as low as 83μs,the solution time of complex collaborative equations is as low as 46 ms,the mechanical efficiency of the ET is increased by 9.07%,the efficiency of the drive motor is increased by 9.72%,the stability of the operation speed is increased by 106.25%,and the stability of the plowing depth reaches 94.98%.Our work meets the hardware and software requirements for realizing complex collaborative control of ET units and improves the operational quality and operational energy efficiency in real vehicle demonstrations.

文摘Although phase-change random-access memory(PCRAM)is a promising next-generation nonvolatile memory technology,challenges remain in terms of reducing energy consumption.This is primarily be-cause the high thermal conductivities of phase-change materials(PCMs)promote Joule heating dissi-pation.Repeated phase transitions also induce long-range atomic diffusion,limiting the durability.To address these challenges,phase-change heterostructure(PCH)devices that incorporate confinement sub-layers based on transition-metal dichalcogenide materials have been developed.In this study,we engi-neered a PCH device by integrating HfTe_(2),which has low thermal conductivity and excellent stability,into the PCM to realize PCRAM with enhanced thermal efficiency and structural stability.HEAT sim-ulations were conducted to validate the superior heat confinement in the programming region of the HfTe_(2)-based PCH device.Moreover,electrical measurements of the device demonstrated its outstanding performance,which was characterized by a low RESET current(∼1.6 mA),stable two-order ON/OFF ratio,and exceptional cycling endurance(∼2×10^(7)).The structural integrity of the HfTe_(2)confinement sub-layer was confirmed using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy.The material properties,including electrical conductivity,cohesive energy,and electronegativity,substantiated these findings.Collectively,these results revealed that the HfTe_(2)-based PCH device can achieve significant improvements in performance and reliability compared with conventional PCRAM devices.

文摘Deep-sea mining has emerged as a critical solution to address global resource shortages;however,the mechanical interaction between tracked mining vehicles(TMVs)and soft seabed sediments presents fundamental engineering challenges.This study establishes a multiscale modelling framework coupling the discrete element method(DEM)with multi-body dynamics(MBD)to investigate track-seabed dynamic interactions across three operational modes:flat terrain,slope climbing,and ditch surmounting.The simulation framework,validated against laboratory experiments,systematically evaluates the influence of grouser geometry(involute,triangular,and pin-type)and traveling speed(0.2–1.0 m/s)on traction performance,slip rate,and ground pressure distribution.Results reveal rate-dependent traction mechanisms governed by soil microstructural responses:higher speeds enhance peak traction but exacerbate slip instability on complex terrain.Critical operational thresholds are established—0.7 m/s for flat terrain,≤0.5 m/s for slopes and ditches—with distinct grouser optimization strategies:involute grousers achieve 35%–40%slip reduction on slopes through progressive soil engagement,while triangular grousers provide optimal impact resistance during ditch crossing with 30%–35%performance improvement.These findings provide quantitative design criteria and operational guidelines for optimizing TMV structural parameters and control strategies,offering a robust theoretical foundation for enhancing the performance,safety,and reliability of deep-sea mining equipment in complex submarine environments.

文摘The integration of renewable energy sources into modern power systems necessitates efficient and robust control strategies to address challenges such as power quality,stability,and dynamic environmental variations.This paper presents a novel sparrow search algorithm(SSA)-tuned proportional-integral(PI)controller for grid-connected photovoltaic(PV)systems,designed to optimize dynamic perfor-mance,energy extraction,and power quality.Key contributions include the development of a systematic SSA-based optimization frame-work for real-time PI parameter tuning,ensuring precise voltage and current regulation,improved maximum power point tracking(MPPT)efficiency,and minimized total harmonic distortion(THD).The proposed approach is evaluated against conventional PSO-based and P&O controllers through comprehensive simulations,demonstrating its superior performance across key metrics:a 39.47%faster response time compared to PSO,a 12.06%increase in peak active power relative to P&O,and a 52.38%reduction in THD,ensuring compliance with IEEE grid standards.Moreover,the SSA-tuned PI controller exhibits enhanced adaptability to dynamic irradiancefluc-tuations,rapid response time,and robust grid integration under varying conditions,making it highly suitable for real-time smart grid applications.This work establishes the SSA-tuned PI controller as a reliable and efficient solution for improving PV system performance in grid-connected scenarios,while also setting the foundation for future research into multi-objective optimization,experimental valida-tion,and hybrid renewable energy systems.
文摘Three-phase grid-connected inverters(GCIs)are essential components in distributed generation systems,where the accuracy of current measurement circuits is fundamental for reliable closed-loop operation.Nevertheless,the presence of a DC offset in the measured current can disrupt the regulation of grid currents and significantly degrade system performance.In this work,a fault-tolerant control approach is introduced to counteract the impact of such offset faults through a dedicated current compensation mechanism.The proposed solution is built around two main stages:(i)detecting and isolating DC offset faults that may appear in one or multiple phases of the measured grid currents,and(ii)estimating the fault magnitude and reconstructing the corrected current signal.The offset magnitude is obtained analytically by examining the grid current projected onto the synchronous d-axis at the grid angular frequency,eliminating the need for any additional sensing hardware.Simulation and experimental investigations conducted under several fault scenarios confirm the robustness of the proposed strategy and highlight significant improvements in detection speed and diagnostic accuracy.

文摘Around the world,there has been a notable shift toward the use of renewable energy technology due to the growing demand for energy and the ongoing depletion of conventional resources,such as fossil fuels.Following this worldwide trend,Brunei’s government has initiated several strategic programs aimed at encouraging the establishment of energy from renewable sources in the nation’s energy mix.These initiatives are designed not only to support environmental sustainability but also to make energy from renewable sources increasingly competitive in comparison to more conventional energy sources like gas and oil,which have historically dominated Brunei’s energy market.The optimization of a hybrid energy system that combines diesel generators,solar photovoltaic(PV)panels,and the national power grid is the focus of this study.The objective is to identify the most cost-effective and environmentally sustainable configuration that can reliably meet local energy demands.During optimization,several configuration was tried and tested,including only grid,PV and Grid and PV-generator.HOMER(Hybrid Optimization of Multiple Energy Resources)software,a popular simulation tool that makes it possible to simulate and analyze hybrid energy systems,is utilized in the optimization process.Inside the HOMER Pro optimization,various system configuration is taken into account for the optimization.While simulating,it takes into account different combinations of components such as solar panels,wind turbines and batteries.Later on,it is being ranked by different factors such as net present cost(NPC),Cost of Energy(COE),etc.A comprehensive techno-economic research is carried out to evaluate various system configurations,considering key performance indicators such as total energy generation cost,operational expenditure,and greenhouse gas emissions.The results provide valuable insights into how renewable-based hybrid systems can reduce environmental impact while maintaining economic viability,supporting Brunei’s broader goals of energy diversification and sustainability.The study also emphasizes how such hybrid systems could be scaled for off-grid and rural populations in Brunei,where a dependable electricity supply is still a problem.Furthermore,sensitivity analyses were performed to evaluate the effects of variations in solar irradiation,load demand,and fuel prices on the overall system performance.Policymakers and energy planners can use these insights to help them make data-driven decisions about future investments in infrastructure for renewable energy.

文摘From the perspective of facilitating the design of fluidized hydrogen reduction reactors for iron ore powder and maintaining stable operation,the operational conditions and bubble behavior in stable state fluidization of multi-particle size systems were investigated through cold-state experiments.To facilitate the identification of bubble behavior,a two-dimensional bubbling bed cold-state experiment was carried out using iron ore powder with a narrow particle size distribution and glass beads.Initially,the multi-stage fluidization characteristics of iron ore powder were examined.Then,using Geldart B-type glass beads to simulate a multi-particle size composition system,the particle size range and superficial gas velocity range for stable operation of the multi-particle composition system were explored.When the mass percentage of 150-μm glass beads was 15%,the stable fluidization operational gas velocity range was found to be(1.05-1.21)umf,where umf is the minimum fluidization velocity;when the content was 20%,the stable fluidized superficial gas velocity range was(1.09-1.26)umf.Under stable fluidization operating conditions,the dynamic behavior of bubbles(average equivalent diameter,rising velocity,and lateral migration velocity)was studied,and the quantitative relationship between the average equivalent diameter of bubbles and bed height in multi-particle size systems under stable fluidization conditions was also corrected.Additionally,the correlation between bubble rising velocity and bubble average equivalent diameter was established.

文摘Accurate recognition of flight deck operations for carrier-based aircraft, based on operation trajectories, is critical for optimizing carrier-based aircraft performance. This recognition involves understanding short-term and long-term spatial collaborative relationships among support agents and positions from long spatial–temporal trajectories. While the existing methods excel at recognizing collaborative behaviors from short trajectories, they often struggle with long spatial–temporal trajectories. To address this challenge, this paper introduces a dynamic graph method to enhance flight deck operation recognition. First, spatial–temporal collaborative relationships are modeled as a dynamic graph. Second, a discretized and compressed method is proposed to assign values to the states of this dynamic graph. To extract features that represent diverse collaborative relationships among agents and account for the duration of these relationships, a biased random walk is then conducted. Subsequently, the Swin Transformer is employed to comprehend spatial–temporal collaborative relationships, and a fully connected layer is applied to deck operation recognition. Finally, to address the scarcity of real datasets, a simulation pipeline is introduced to generate deck operations in virtual flight deck scenarios. Experimental results on the simulation dataset demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed method.

文摘Our concern is to investigate controlled remote implementation of partially unknown operations with multiple layers.We first propose a scheme to realize the remote implementation of singlequbit operations belonging to the restricted sets.Then,the proposed scheme is extended to the case of single-qudit operations.As long as the controller and the higher-layer senders consent,the receiver can restore the desired state remotely operated by the sender.It is worth mentioning that the recovery operation is deduced by general formulas which clearly reveal the relationship with the measurement outcomes.For the sake of clarity,two specific examples with two levels are given respectively.In addition,we discuss the influence of amplitude-damping noise and utilize weak measurement and measurement reversal to effectively resist noise.

文摘Effective forest regeneration is essential for sustainable forestry practices.In Sweden,mechanical site preparation and manual planting is the dominating method,but sourcing labour for the physically demanding work is difficult.An autonomous scarifying and planting system(Autoplant)could meet the requirements of the forest industry and,for this,a tool for regeneration planning and routing is needed.The tool,Pathfinder,plans the regeneration and routes based on the harvested production(hpr)files,soil moisture and parent material maps,no-go areas(for culture or nature conservation),digital elevation models(DEM),and machine data(e.g.,working width,critical slope,time taken for different turn angles).The overall planting solution is either a set of capacity constrained routes or a continuous route and could be used for any planting machine as well as for traditional scarifiers as disc trenchers or mounders pulled by forwarders.Pathfinder was tested on eleven regeneration areas throughout Sweden,both with continuous routes and routes based on a carrying capacity of 1500 seedlings.The net operation area,species and seedling density suggestions were deemed relevant by expert judgement in the field.The routes provided by Pathfinder were compared with solutions given by two experienced drivers and a third solution based on the actual soil scarification at the site.Total driving distance did not differ significantly between the suggestions,but Pathfinder included less side-slope driving on steep slopes(≥27%or 15°)and medium slopes(15–27%).The chosen threshold value for steep slopes(where side-slope driving should be avoided)affects the routing,and a lower threshold means more turning and longer driving distance.Pathfinder is not only a tool for routing of planting machines,but also helps in planning of traditional regeneration by providing a more correct net area and tree species suggestions based on the growth of the previous stand.It also diminishes the risk of severe soil disturbance by excluding the wettest area in the planning.

文摘Cellular spheroids,closely resembling native tissue microenvironments,have emerged as pivotal constructs in biomedicine as they can facilitate complex cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions.However,current methods for constructing spheroid assembloids with spatial arrangement or heterogeneous structures are limited,which has become a barrier for studying tissue engineering and in vitro disease modeling.Here,we demonstrate an acoustofluidic pick-and-place operation system capable of spatially assembling of spheroids into desired patterns in both two dimensional(2D)and three dimensional(3D)spaces.The underlying physical mechanism of the device is systematically studied to explain the interrelationship between trapping cell spheroids,acoustic streaming,and the acoustic radiation force(ARF)induced by the acoustically activated microneedle.We exploit these mechanisms to successfully transfer cellular spheroids into hydrogel solutions,enabling them to be precisely patterned and fused into assembloids of predefined shapes.Besides,we demonstrate arranging MC3T3-E1 cellular spheroids into a ring shape to fabricate the osteogenic tissues.Besides,a co-culture model involving tumor cells(MCF-7)and normal human dermal fibroblasts(NHDFs)is constructed to validate our method’s ability to reconstruct heterogeneous tumor model,revealing that the fibroblast spheroids promote tumor spheroid invasion.Our method holds significant potential prospects in regenerative medicine,disease model construction and drug screening.
文摘The global public HPC(high-power charging)network for EVs(electric vehicles)is rapidly expanding.This growth is crucial for supporting the increasing adoption of EVs but highlights the industry’s early stage.Regional maturity varies,with China leading due to strong government support,followed by Europe and the United States.A significant challenge is the lack of industry standards,causing inconsistencies in charger types and payment systems.Efforts are underway,to ensure interoperability and reliability.Interoperability is crucial for the success of EV HPC infrastructure,ensuring seamless integration among charge points,management systems,and service providers.Despite the use of protocols like the OCPP(Open Charge Point Protocol),variations in implementation create complexities.Ensuring uniform standards across the ecosystem is essential for reliability and efficiency.Vendor-specific error codes,which are more detailed than standardized codes,are vital for diagnosing issues but lack standardization,adding complexity.Addressing these challenges is key to supporting widespread EV adoption and enhancing user experience.To provide a compelling driver value proposition,EV charging services must be reliable and seamless.The operations and maintenance of the HPC network must be cost-effective and leverage the intelligence of the integrated ecosystem.The technical complexity of managing high-power DC charging,combined with diverse authentication and payment systems,results in numerous potential issues.Moving from reactive to predictive maintenance is essential for undisrupted operations and a smooth driver experience.Shell’s Intelligent Operations Technology Strategy incorporates GenAI elements in its advanced analytics and operational performance management tools.By ingesting big data from multiple sources across the EV ecosystem,Shell engineers can perform detailed pattern recognition and targeted troubleshooting.Monitoring,configurable alerting,and remote fixing based on auto-healing and targeted auto-allocation enhance charger availability and reduce downtime.This automation has evolved Shell’s maintenance and operations strategy from reactive to predictive,improving overall charger performance and user satisfaction.Key achievements include transitioning to prescriptive and preventive asset management approaches,significantly improving uptime and charging experience,and increasing commercial value through cost reduction and enhanced revenue.Future challenges include evolving OCPP,integrating data from non-OCPP systems,and ensuring interoperability across diverse systems.Standardization and cross-collaboration within the industry are essential for smooth interoperability,higher uptime,and increased CSR(charging success rate).Technological innovations will further shape the industry,promoting stabilization and efficiency as it matures.

文摘The Rydberg atom-based receiver, as a novel type of antenna, demonstrates broad application prospects in the field of microwave communications. However, since Rydberg atomic receivers are nonlinear systems, mismatches between the parameters of the received amplitude modulation(AM) signals and the system's linear workspace and demodulation operating points can cause severe distortion in the demodulated signals. To address this, the article proposes a method for determining the operational parameters based on the mean square error(MSE) and total harmonic distortion(THD) assessments and presents strategies for optimizing the system's operational parameters focusing on linear response characteristics(LRC) and linear dynamic range(LDR). Specifically, we employ a method that minimizes the MSE to define the system's linear workspace, thereby ensuring the system has a good LRC while maximizing the LDR. To ensure that the signal always operates within the linear workspace, an appropriate carrier amplitude is set as the demodulation operating point. By calculating the THD at different operating points, the LRC performance within different regions of the linear workspace is evaluated, and corresponding optimization strategies based on the range of signal strengths are proposed. Moreover, to more accurately restore the baseband signal, we establish a mapping relationship between the carrier Rabi frequency and the transmitted power of the probe light, and optimize the slope of the linear demodulation function to reduce the MSE to less than 0.8×10^(-4). Finally, based on these methods for determining the operational parameters, we explore the effects of different laser Rabi frequencies on the system performance, and provide optimization recommendations. This research provides robust support for the design of high-performance Rydberg atom-based AM receivers.
