The real-time estimation for these two parameters is crucial to realize a safe and reliable battery application. However, this is a great problem for LiFePO4 batteries due to the large constant potential plateau in the charge/discharge process. Here we propose a combined SOC and SOH co-estimation method based on the experimental test under the simulating electric vehicle working condition. A first-order resistance-capacitance equivalent circuit is used to model the battery cell, and three parameter values, ohmic resistance （Rs）, parallel resistance （Rp） and parallel capacity （Cp）, are identified from a real-time experimental test. Finally we find that Rp and Cp could be utilized to make a judgement on the SOIl. More importantly, the linear relationship between Cp and the SOC is established to make the estimation of the SOC for the first time.展开更多

However, problems such as failure to converge, prone to failure during contingencies,and biased estimates while system is under stressed condition occur so that state estimation results may not be reliable.The unreliable results further impact downstream network and market applications, such as contingency analysis,voltage stability analysis, transient stability analysis, system alarming, and unit commitment. Thus, operators may lose the awareness of system condition in EMS.

With guaranteed and accurate state estimation solution and advanced real-time data analytic and monitoring functionalities, the system is capable of assisting operators to assess and diagnose current system conditions for proactive and necessary corrective actions. The architecture, building components, and implementation of the proposed system are explored in detail. Two case studies with simulated data from the subsystems of Electric Reliability Council of Texas(ERCOT) and Los Angeles Department of Water and Power(LADWP) are presented. The test results show the effectiveness and reliability of the system, and its value for realtime power system operations.展开更多

In this work,an algorithm based on kernel-k nearest neighbor(KNN) matching of road traffic spatial characteristics is presented to estimate road traffic states. Firstly, the representative road traffic state data were extracted to establish the reference sequences of road traffic running characteristics(RSRTRC). Secondly, the spatial road traffic state data sequence was selected and the kernel function was constructed, with which the spatial road traffic data sequence could be mapped into a high dimensional feature space. Thirdly, the referenced and current spatial road traffic data sequences were extracted and the Euclidean distances in the feature space between them were obtained. Finally, the road traffic states were estimated from weighted averages of the selected k road traffic states, which corresponded to the nearest Euclidean distances. Several typical links in Beijing were adopted for case studies. The final results of the experiments show that the accuracy of this algorithm for estimating speed and volume is 95.27% and 91.32% respectively, which prove that this road traffic states estimation approach based on kernel-KNN matching of road traffic spatial characteristics is feasible and can achieve a high accuracy.展开更多

These municipalities are recognized nationally for having an elevated number of recorded landslides on slopes and embankments. In addition, these municipalities contain multiple areas that are at risk for landslides. Various soil landslides occurred in these municipalities in January 2013, when real-time climactic and geotechnical variables were monitored by automatic rain gauges, humidity sensors and soil temperature and suction devices. The resulting data were used to understand the functions of each variable in the occurrence of land- slides. Analyses of rainfall, humidity and soil temperature were used with field investigations to formulate a hypothesis regarding the predominant rupture mechanism and the role of each monitored variable in the deflagration of the soil landslides that occurred in the three studied municipalities. The geotechnical variable data revealed that both temperature and soil moisture contents played fundamental roles in the deflagration of shallow planar landslides in urban areas. The hourly rain intensity and/or rainfall accumulation for 24 and/or 72 h were responsible for the deflagration of the landslides that occurred in the studied areas, along with the existing anthropic constraints in the risk areas. Significant variations did not occur in the soil suction data during the landslides, principally due to the unsatisfactory sensor precision when reading field suction between –10 and?–100 kPA (±25%).展开更多

To facilitate the implementation of NMPC in batch processes, we propose a real-time updated model predictive control method based on state estimation. The method includes two strategies: a multiple model building strategy and a real-time model updated strategy. The multiple model building strategy is to produce a series of sim-plified models to reduce the on-line computational complexity of NMPC. The real-time model updated strategy is to update the simplified models to keep the accuracy of the models describing dynamic process behavior. The me-thod is validated with a typical batch reactor. Simulation studies show that the new method is efficient and robust with respect to model mismatch and changes in process parameters.展开更多

In this study, we introduce a monitoring method capable of non-contact original-state online real-time monitoring for strongly coated, high-salinity, and multi-component liquids. The principle of the method is to establish the relationship among the concentration of the target substance in the liquid （C）, the color space coor- dinates of the target substance at different concentrations （L＊, a＊, b＊）, and the maximum absorption wave- length （λmax）; subsequently, the optimum wavelength λT of the liquid is determined by a high-precision scanning-type monitoring system that is used to detect the instantaneous concentration of the target substance in the flowing liquid. Unlike traditional monitoring methods and existing online monitoring methods, the proposed method does not require any pretreatment of the samples （i.e., filtration, dilution, oxidation/reduction, addition of chromogenic agent, constant volume, etc.）, and it is capable of original- state online real-time monitoring. This method is employed at a large electrolytic manganese plant to monitor the Fe3. concentration in the colloidal process of the plant＇s aging liquid （where the concentra- tions of Fe3＋, Mn2＋, and （NH4）2SO4 are 0.5-18 mg.L 1, 35-39 g.L 1, and 90-110 g.L 1, respectively）. The relative error of this monitoring method compared with an off-line laboratory monitoring is less than 2%.展开更多

Finally, the road traffic states were estimated from weighted averages of the selected k road traffic states, which corresponded to the nearest Euclidean distances. Several typical links in Beijing were adopted for case studies. The final results of the experiments show that the accuracy of this algorithm for estimating speed and volume is 95.27% and 91.32% respectively, which prove that this road traffic states estimation approach based on kernel-KNN matching of road traffic spatial characteristics is feasible and can achieve a high accuracy.

Analyses of rainfall, humidity and soil temperature were used with field investigations to formulate a hypothesis regarding the predominant rupture mechanism and the role of each monitored variable in the deflagration of the soil landslides that occurred in the three studied municipalities. The geotechnical variable data revealed that both temperature and soil moisture contents played fundamental roles in the deflagration of shallow planar landslides in urban areas. The hourly rain intensity and/or rainfall accumulation for 24 and/or 72 h were responsible for the deflagration of the landslides that occurred in the studied areas, along with the existing anthropic constraints in the risk areas. Significant variations did not occur in the soil suction data during the landslides, principally due to the unsatisfactory sensor precision when reading field suction between –10 and?–100 kPA (±25%).

文摘Nonlinear model predictive control(NMPC) is an appealing control technique for improving the performance of batch processes, but its implementation in industry is not always possible due to its heavy on-line computation. To facilitate the implementation of NMPC in batch processes, we propose a real-time updated model predictive control method based on state estimation. The method includes two strategies: a multiple model building strategy and a real-time model updated strategy. The multiple model building strategy is to produce a series of sim-plified models to reduce the on-line computational complexity of NMPC. The real-time model updated strategy is to update the simplified models to keep the accuracy of the models describing dynamic process behavior. The me-thod is validated with a typical batch reactor. Simulation studies show that the new method is efficient and robust with respect to model mismatch and changes in process parameters.
文摘Real-time semantic segmentation tasks place stringent demands on network inference speed,often requiring a reduction in network depth to decrease computational load.However,shallow networks tend to exhibit degradation in feature extraction completeness and inference accuracy.Therefore,balancing high performance with real-time requirements has become a critical issue in the study of real-time semantic segmentation.To address these challenges,this paper proposes a lightweight bilateral dual-residual network.By introducing a novel residual structure combined with feature extraction and fusion modules,the proposed network significantly enhances representational capacity while reducing computational costs.Specifically,an improved compound residual structure is designed to optimize the efficiency of information propagation and feature extraction.Furthermore,the proposed feature extraction and fusion module enables the network to better capture multi-scale information in images,improving the ability to detect both detailed and global semantic features.Experimental results on the publicly available Cityscapes dataset demonstrate that the proposed lightweight dual-branch network achieves outstanding performance while maintaining low computational complexity.In particular,the network achieved a mean Intersection over Union(mIoU)of 78.4%on the Cityscapes validation set,surpassing many existing semantic segmentation models.Additionally,in terms of inference speed,the network reached 74.5 frames per second when tested on an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 GPU,significantly improving real-time performance.
文摘Failures are very common during the online real-time monitoring of large quantities of complex liquids in industrial processes, and can result in excessive resource consumption and pollution. In this study, we introduce a monitoring method capable of non-contact original-state online real-time monitoring for strongly coated, high-salinity, and multi-component liquids. The principle of the method is to establish the relationship among the concentration of the target substance in the liquid （C）, the color space coor- dinates of the target substance at different concentrations （L＊, a＊, b＊）, and the maximum absorption wave- length （λmax）; subsequently, the optimum wavelength λT of the liquid is determined by a high-precision scanning-type monitoring system that is used to detect the instantaneous concentration of the target substance in the flowing liquid. Unlike traditional monitoring methods and existing online monitoring methods, the proposed method does not require any pretreatment of the samples （i.e., filtration, dilution, oxidation/reduction, addition of chromogenic agent, constant volume, etc.）, and it is capable of original- state online real-time monitoring. This method is employed at a large electrolytic manganese plant to monitor the Fe3. concentration in the colloidal process of the plant＇s aging liquid （where the concentra- tions of Fe3＋, Mn2＋, and （NH4）2SO4 are 0.5-18 mg.L 1, 35-39 g.L 1, and 90-110 g.L 1, respectively）. The relative error of this monitoring method compared with an off-line laboratory monitoring is less than 2%.

文摘Here,a novel real-time monitoring sensor that integrates the oxidation of peroxymonosulfate(PMS)and the in situ monitoring of the pollutant degradation process is proposed.Briefly,FeCo@carbon fiber(FeCo@CF)was utilized as the anode electrode,while graphite rods served as the cathode electrode in assembling the galvanic cell.The FeCo@CF electrode exhibited rapid reactivity with PMS,generating reactive oxygen species that efficiently degrade organic pollutants.The degradation experiments indicate that complete bisphenol A(BPA)degradation was achieved within 10 min under optimal conditions.The real-time electrochemical signal was measured in time during the catalytic reaction,and a linear relationship between BPA concentration and the real-time charge(Q)was confirmed by the equation ln(C0/C)=4.393Q(correlation coefficients,R^(2)=0.998).Furthermore,experiments conducted with aureomycin and tetracycline further validated the effectiveness of the monitoring sensor.First-principles investigation confirmed the superior adsorption energy and improved electron transfer in FeCo@CF.The integration of pollutant degradation with in situ monitoring of catalytic reactions offers promising prospects for expanding the scope of the monitoring of catalytic processes and making significant contributions to environmental purification.

文摘The exponential expansion of the Internet of Things(IoT),Industrial Internet of Things(IIoT),and Transportation Management of Things(TMoT)produces vast amounts of real-time streaming data.Ensuring system dependability,operational efficiency,and security depends on the identification of anomalies in these dynamic and resource-constrained systems.Due to their high computational requirements and inability to efficiently process continuous data streams,traditional anomaly detection techniques often fail in IoT systems.This work presents a resource-efficient adaptive anomaly detection model for real-time streaming data in IoT systems.Extensive experiments were carried out on multiple real-world datasets,achieving an average accuracy score of 96.06%with an execution time close to 7.5 milliseconds for each individual streaming data point,demonstrating its potential for real-time,resourceconstrained applications.The model uses Principal Component Analysis(PCA)for dimensionality reduction and a Z-score technique for anomaly detection.It maintains a low computational footprint with a sliding window mechanism,enabling incremental data processing and identification of both transient and sustained anomalies without storing historical data.The system uses a Multivariate Linear Regression(MLR)based imputation technique that estimates missing or corrupted sensor values,preserving data integrity prior to anomaly detection.The suggested solution is appropriate for many uses in smart cities,industrial automation,environmental monitoring,IoT security,and intelligent transportation systems,and is particularly well-suited for resource-constrained edge devices.
