This paper presents a combined non-singular fast terminal sliding mode control method, aimed at resolving the frame control problem of roll-pitch seeker tracking high maneu-vering target. The sliding mode surface is structured around the principle of segmentation, which enables the control system’s rapid attainment of the zero point and ensure global fast conver-gence. The system’s state is more swiftly converged to the slid-ing mode surface through an improved adaptive fast dual power reaching law. Utilizing an extended state observer, the overall disturbance is both identified and compensated. The validation of the system’s stability and its convergence within a finite-time is grounded in Lyapunov’s stability criteria. The performance of the introduced control method is confirmed through roll-pitch seeker tracking control simulation. Data analysis reveals that newly proposed control technique significantly outperforms existing sliding mode control methods by rapidly converging the frame to the target angle, reduce the tracking error of the detec-tor for the target, and bolster tracking precision of the roll-pitch seeker huring disturbed conditions.展开更多

文摘Persistent flows are defined as network flows that persist over multiple time intervals and continue to exhibit activity over extended periods,which are critical for identifying long-term behaviors and subtle security threats.Programmable switches provide line-rate packet processing to meet the requirements of high-speed network environments,yet they are fundamentally limited in computational and memory resources.Accurate and memoryefficient persistent flow detection on programmable switches is therefore essential.However,existing approaches often rely on fixed-window sketches or multiple sketches instances,which either suffer from insufficient temporal precision or incur substantial memory overhead,making them ineffective on programmable switches.To address these challenges,we propose SP-Sketch,an innovative sliding-window-based sketch that leverages a probabilistic update mechanism to emulate slot expiration without maintaining multiple sketch instances.This innovative design significantly reduces memory consumption while preserving high detection accuracy across multiple time intervals.We provide rigorous theoretical analyses of the estimation errors,deriving precise error bounds for the proposed method,and validate our approach through comprehensive implementations on both P4 hardware switches(with Intel Tofino ASIC)and software switches(i.e.,BMv2).Experimental evaluations using real-world traffic traces demonstrate that SP-Sketch outperforms traditional methods,improving accuracy by up to 20%over baseline sliding window approaches and enhancing recall by 5%compared to non-sliding alternatives.Furthermore,SP-Sketch achieves a significant reduction in memory utilization,reducing memory consumption by up to 65%compared to traditional methods,while maintaining a robust capability to accurately track persistent flow behavior over extended time periods.

文摘With the rapid advancement of Voice over Internet Protocol(VoIP)technology,speech steganography techniques such as Quantization Index Modulation(QIM)and Pitch Modulation Steganography(PMS)have emerged as significant challenges to information security.These techniques embed hidden information into speech streams,making detection increasingly difficult,particularly under conditions of low embedding rates and short speech durations.Existing steganalysis methods often struggle to balance detection accuracy and computational efficiency due to their limited ability to effectively capture both temporal and spatial features of speech signals.To address these challenges,this paper proposes an Efficient Sliding Window Analysis Network(E-SWAN),a novel deep learning model specifically designed for real-time speech steganalysis.E-SWAN integrates two core modules:the LSTM Temporal Feature Miner(LTFM)and the Convolutional Key Feature Miner(CKFM).LTFM captures long-range temporal dependencies using Long Short-Term Memory networks,while CKFM identifies local spatial variations caused by steganographic embedding through convolutional operations.These modules operate within a sliding window framework,enabling efficient extraction of temporal and spatial features.Experimental results on the Chinese CNV and PMS datasets demonstrate the superior performance of E-SWAN.Under conditions of a ten-second sample duration and an embedding rate of 10%,E-SWAN achieves a detection accuracy of 62.09%on the PMS dataset,surpassing existing methods by 4.57%,and an accuracy of 82.28%on the CNV dataset,outperforming state-of-the-art methods by 7.29%.These findings validate the robustness and efficiency of E-SWAN under low embedding rates and short durations,offering a promising solution for real-time VoIP steganalysis.This work provides significant contributions to enhancing information security in digital communications.
文摘The study aims to analyze the synergistic effect of hybrid fiber reinforcements on wear resistance of epoxy based natural fiber reinforced polymer composites(NFPCs).The study employed jute and sisal fibers as reinforcements.Two distinct reinforcements were incorporated in equal percentages to each type of composite sample.Five distinct composite specimens were identified as follows:NFPC⁃8(containing 4%sisal and jute fibers each),NFPC⁃16(containing 8%sisal and jute fibers each),NFPC⁃24(containing 12%sisal and jute fibers each),NFPC⁃32(containing 16%sisal and jute fibers each),and epoxy(EP)(containing 0%reinforcements).The hand layup technique was used for developing hybrid natural composites.In accordance with ASTM G99,pin⁃on⁃disc wear test rig was used for the dry sliding wear tests.The effect of applied load and sliding velocities on wear volume loss and specific wear rate was studied.The obtained results indicated that wear volume and specific wear rate are significantly affected by applied load and sliding velocity.NFPC⁃32 composite exhibited minimum wear loss and specific wear rate compared to other specimens.Besides,wear loss and specific wear rate were found to increase with the increase in applied load owing to the high contact stress at counterface during sliding.Further,wear volume and specific wear rate have increased with the increase in sliding velocity.It may be due to the fact that,high shearing force has resulted in sheared transfer layer at higher velocity.Worn surface analysis using scanning electron microscopy images showed the evidence of fragmented fibers and their pullout.

文摘In this study,the sliding friction contact problems associated with the indentation of an elastic half-plane by rigid cylindrical and flat punches were investigated within the context of the micropolar theory.The micropolar theory of elasticity introduces the characteristic material length and the dimensionless coupling number to describe the size effect.Coulomb’s friction law is satisfied by a punch when it is subjected to both normal and tangential forces.Using the Fourier integral transformation technique,these mixed-boundary value problems were reduced to singular integral equations of the second kind in which the unknown quantity is the contact stress on the contact surface.The collocation method was utilized to solve the integral equations numerically.An extensive parametric study was conducted to investigate the effects of the friction coefficient,the characteristic material length,and the dimensionless coupling number on the normal and in-plane stresses.The results show that the contact stress predicted by the micropolar theory differs significantly from those predicted by the couple stress theory and the classical elasticity theory.

文摘Hard scales in scaly fish species ensure the structural and functional integrity of the inner skin and body,even when subjected to various types of external forces.Mucus and oil secreted from the inner layer of the fish skin to the surface exhibit resistance to a wide range of liquids,maintaining the antifouling properties of the fish skin surface.Inspired by these biological structures,ultra-sturdy and durable scale-armored-sliding surfaces(SASSs)were fabricated in this study using femtosecond laser electrodeposition(FED).In the FED method,a scaly structure is grown from the substrate across a sliding layer to form an SASS.The unique scale-armored structure offers protection against impact and abrasion while maintaining the performance and integrity of the structure.The mechanical sturdiness of the SASS improved by four orders of magnitude compared to that of the conventional antifouling surface.In addition,the SASS exhibited remarkable chemical durability,excellent hydraulic pressure resistance,liquid repellency,and good corrosion resistance based on characterization using various methods.FED enables the preparation of SASS on several materials,including Cu and Al and more.SASS fabricated using FED has great potential for the application of antifouling surfaces in extremely harsh environments.
文摘This paper introduces a novel chattering-free terminal sliding mode control(SMC)strategy to address chaotic behavior in permanent magnet synchronous generators(PMSG)for offshore wind turbine systems.By integrating an adaptive exponential reaching law with a continuous barrier function,the proposed approach eliminates chattering and ensures robust performance under model uncertainties.The methodology combines adaptive SMC with dynamic switching to estimate and compensates for unknown uncertainties,providing smooth and stable control.Finally,the performance and effectiveness of the proposed approach are compared with those of a previous study.
文摘For air-to-air missiles, the terminal guidance’s preci-sion is directly contingent upon the tracking capabilities of the roll-pitch seeker. This paper presents a combined non-singular fast terminal sliding mode control method, aimed at resolving the frame control problem of roll-pitch seeker tracking high maneu-vering target. The sliding mode surface is structured around the principle of segmentation, which enables the control system’s rapid attainment of the zero point and ensure global fast conver-gence. The system’s state is more swiftly converged to the slid-ing mode surface through an improved adaptive fast dual power reaching law. Utilizing an extended state observer, the overall disturbance is both identified and compensated. The validation of the system’s stability and its convergence within a finite-time is grounded in Lyapunov’s stability criteria. The performance of the introduced control method is confirmed through roll-pitch seeker tracking control simulation. Data analysis reveals that newly proposed control technique significantly outperforms existing sliding mode control methods by rapidly converging the frame to the target angle, reduce the tracking error of the detec-tor for the target, and bolster tracking precision of the roll-pitch seeker huring disturbed conditions.

文摘Considering the challenges posed by external disturbances on carrier-based aircraft land-ing control,higher demands are required for the precision and convergence of the carrier landingcontrol system.First,this paper proposes an Adaptive Terminal Sliding Combined Super TwistingControl(ATS-STC)method to address the issues of low precision,slow convergence,and poor dis-turbance rejection capability resulting from external disturbances,such as carrier air-wake and deckmotion.By introducing a nonlinear term into the sliding surface and employing an integralapproach,the proposed ATS-STC method can ensure finite-time convergence and mitigate the chat-tering problem.An adaptive law is also utilized to estimate the external disturbances,therebyenhancing the anti-disturbance performance.Then,the stability and convergence time analysis ofthe designed controller are conducted.Based on the proposed method,an Automatic Carrier Land-ing System(ACLS)is developed to perform the carrier landing control task.Furthermore,a multi-dimensional validation is carried out.For the numerical simulation test,the Terminal Sliding ModeControl(TSMC)method and Proportion Integration Differentiation(PID)method are introducedas comparison,the quantitative assessment results show that the tracking error of TSMC and PIDcan reach 1.5 times and 2 times that of the proposed method.Finally,the Hardware-in-the-Loop(HIL)test and real flight test are conducted.All the experimental results demonstrate that the pro-posed control method is more effective and precise.

文摘Tracking control of tendon-driven manipulators has become a prevalent research area.However,the existence of flexible elastic tendons generates substantial residual vibrations,resulting in difficulties for trajectory tracking control of the manipulator.This paper proposes the radial basis function neural network adaptive hierarchical sliding mode control(RBFNNA-HSMC)method,which combines the dynamic model of the elastic tendon-driven manipulator(ETDM)with radial basis neural network adaptive control and hierarchical sliding mode control technology.The aim is to achieve trajectory tracking control of ETDM even under conditions of model inaccuracy and disturbance.The Lyapunov stability theory demonstrates the stability of the proposed RBFNNA-HSM controller.In order to assess the effectiveness and adaptability of the proposed control method,simulations and experiments were performed on a two-DOF ETDM.The RBFNNA-HSM method shows superior tracking accuracy compared to traditional modelbased HSM control.The experiment shows that the maximum tracking error for ETDM double-joint trajectory tracking is below 2.593×10-3rad and 1.624×10-3rad,respectively.
