The inherent unmatched and non-vanishing uncertainties make the prescribed-time control problem become much more nontrivial. The solution to address the challenges mentioned above involves incorporating a prescribed-time filter, as opposed to a finite-time filter, and formulating a prescribed-time Lyapunov stability lemma(Lemma 5). The prescribed-time Lyapunov stability lemma is based on time axis shifting time-varying yet bounded gain, which establishes a novel link between the fixed-time and prescribed-time control method. This allows the restriction condition that the time-varying gain function must satisfy as imposed in most exist prescribed-time control works to be removed. Under the proposed control method, the desire trajectory is ensured to closely track the output of the system in prescribed time. The effectiveness of the theoretical results are verified through numerical simulation.展开更多

The study was performed in a 16-slice Computed Tomography (CT) system of LightSpeed RT16 Xtra CT scanner. Quality control was done using a vendor-provided QA Phantom, and the six aspects of image quality were measured. For CT dosimetry, Computed Tomography Dose index volume (CTDIvol) was performed using Computed Tomography Dose Index (CTDI) Phantom. CTDI Phantom consists of three parts: Pediatric Head, Adult Head, and Adult Body Phantom. A 10 cm long pencil ion chamber DCT-10 was used to measure the dose at different positions inside the CTDI Phantom. Data were collected using MagicMax Universal software. For dose estimation of the CTDIvol Report of AAPM Task Group, 96 and 111 formalisms were used. For Pediatric Head, Adult Head, and Adult Body Phantom the measured CIDIvol was 61.04 mGy, 48.11 mGy, and 18.08 mGy respectively. The study has shown deviations of 7%, 15%, and 19% between estimated and console-displayed doses for Pediatric Head, Adult Head, and Adult Body scan techniques respectively. The six aspects of image quality measured by QA Phantom were found to be compatible with the specifications of the machine and CTDIvol measured by CTDI Phantom were found within a tolerance limit of ±20%. Hence, the QC and dosimetry of the mentioned machine are within the limit.展开更多

There is great potential for FWMAVs to be used as aerial tools to assist with gathering data and surveying environments. Thanks to modern manufacturing and technology, along with an increased comprehension behind the aerodynamics of wing flaps, these vehicles are now a reality, though not without limitations. Given their diminutive size, FWMAVs are susceptible to real-world disturbances, such as wind gusts, and are sensitive to particular variations in their build quality. While external forces such as wind gusts can be reasonably bounded, the unknown variations in the state may be difficult to characterize or bound without affecting performance. To address these problems, an ADSMC is developed. First, the FWMAV model is converted from continuous-time to discrete-time. Second, an ADSMC for the newly discretized FWMAV model is developed. Using this controller, the trajectory tracking performance of the FWMAV is assessed against a traditional discrete sliding mode controller, and is found to have a decreased chattering frequency and decreased control effort for the same task. Therefore, the ADSMC is assessed as the superior controller, despite being completely unaware of the model parameters or wind gust.展开更多

Using this controller, the trajectory tracking performance of the FWMAV is assessed against a traditional discrete sliding mode controller, and is found to have a decreased chattering frequency and decreased control effort for the same task. Therefore, the ADSMC is assessed as the superior controller, despite being completely unaware of the model parameters or wind gust.

文摘This paper addresses the Singular Optimal Control Problem(SOCP)for a surface-to-air missile with limited control,fully considering aerodynamic effects with a parabolic drag polar.This problem is an extension of the typical Goddard problem.First,the classical Legendre-Clebsch condition is applied to derive optimal conditions for the singular angle of attack,revealing that the missile turns by gravity along the singular arc.Second,the higher-order differentiation of the switching function provides the necessary conditions to determine the optimal thrust,expressed as linear functions of the costate variables.The vanishing coefficient determinant is then employed to decouple the control and costate variables,yielding the singular thrust solely dependent on state variables and identifying the singular surface.Moreover,the analytical singular control can be regarded as path constraints subject to the typical Optimal Control Problem(OCP),enabling the GPOPS-Ⅱ,a direct method framework that does not involve the singular condition,to solve the SOCP.Finally,three cases with different structures are presented to evaluate the performance of the proposed method.The results show that it takes a few steps to obtain the numerical optimal solution,which is consistent with the analytical solution derived from the calculus of variations,highlighting its great computational accuracy and effectiveness.

文摘This article investigates the approaching control for fixed-wing Unmanned Aerial Vehi-cle(UAV)aerial recovery in the presence of pre-specified performance requirements,complex air-flows,maneuvering flight of transport aircraft,and different initial deviations.First,a novelcontrol-oriented Six-Degree-Of-Freedom(6-DOF)UAV model considering airflow disturbancesis established for better consistency with the actual UAV system.Then,to achieve satisfactory per-formance in the approaching process,a Flexible Appointed-time Prescribed Performance Control(FAPPC)algorithm,with the features of user-specified time convergence,no overshoot,indepen-dence from the initial value,and singularity-free,is proposed.Specifically,to solve the singularityissue encountered by the existing PPC methods in dealing with sudden disturbances,an adaptiveadjustment signal is introduced in FAPPC to perceive the threat of increasing error and relax thepreset boundaries appropriately.Moreover,minimum learning parameter-based neural networkestimators are developed to approximate unknown lumped disturbances at a low computationalcost.Finally,the stability of the closed system is analyzed via Lyapunov synthesis,and the effective-ness and advantages of the proposed control scheme are demonstrated via simulation andHardware-In-the-Loop(HIL)experimental validation.

文摘Vascular endothelial growth factor and its mimic peptide KLTWQELYQLKYKGI(QK)are widely used as the most potent angiogenic factors for the treatment of multiple ischemic diseases.However,conventional topical drug delivery often results in a burst release of the drug,leading to transient retention(inefficacy)and undesirable diffusion(toxicity)in vivo.Therefore,a drug delivery system that responds to changes in the microenvironment of tissue regeneration and controls vascular endothelial growth factor release is crucial to improve the treatment of ischemic stroke.Matrix metalloproteinase-2(MMP-2)is gradually upregulated after cerebral ischemia.Herein,vascular endothelial growth factor mimic peptide QK was self-assembled with MMP-2-cleaved peptide PLGLAG(TIMP)and customizable peptide amphiphilic(PA)molecules to construct nanofiber hydrogel PA-TIMP-QK.PA-TIMP-QK was found to control the delivery of QK by MMP-2 upregulation after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion and had a similar biological activity with vascular endothelial growth factor in vitro.The results indicated that PA-TIMP-QK promoted neuronal survival,restored local blood circulation,reduced blood-brain barrier permeability,and restored motor function.These findings suggest that the self-assembling nanofiber hydrogel PA-TIMP-QK may provide an intelligent drug delivery system that responds to the microenvironment and promotes regeneration and repair after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury.

文摘With the development of cyber-physical systems,system security faces more risks from cyber-attacks.In this work,we study the problem that an external attacker implements covert sensor and actuator attacks with resource constraints(the total resource consumption of the attacks is not greater than a given initial resource of the attacker)to mislead a discrete event system under supervisory control to reach unsafe states.We consider that the attacker can implement two types of attacks:One by modifying the sensor readings observed by a supervisor and the other by enabling the actuator commands disabled by the supervisor.Each attack has its corresponding resource consumption and remains covert.To solve this problem,we first introduce a notion of combined-attackability to determine whether a closedloop system may reach an unsafe state after receiving attacks with resource constraints.We develop an algorithm to construct a corrupted supervisor under attacks,provide a verification method for combined-attackability in polynomial time based on a plant,a corrupted supervisor,and an attacker's initial resource,and propose a corresponding attack synthesis algorithm.The effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated by an example.

文摘Recently,unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)-aided free-space optical(FSO)communication has attracted widespread attentions.However,most of the existing research focuses on communication performance only.The authors investigate the integrated scheduling of communication,sensing,and control for UAV-aided FSO communication systems.Initially,a sensing-control model is established via the control theory.Moreover,an FSO communication channel model is established by considering the effects of atmospheric loss,atmospheric turbulence,geometrical loss,and angle-of-arrival fluctuation.Then,the relationship between the motion control of the UAV and radial displacement is obtained to link the control aspect and communication aspect.Assuming that the base station has instantaneous channel state information(CSI)or statistical CSI,the thresholds of the sensing-control pattern activation are designed,respectively.Finally,an integrated scheduling scheme for performing communication,sensing,and control is proposed.Numerical results indicate that,compared with conventional time-triggered scheme,the proposed integrated scheduling scheme obtains comparable communication and control performance,but reduces the sensing consumed power by 52.46%.

文摘The development of chassis active safety control technology has improved vehicle stability under extreme conditions.However,its cross-system and multi-functional characteristics make the controller difficult to achieve cooperative goals.In addition,the chassis system,which has high complexity,numerous subsystems,and strong coupling,will also lead to low computing efficiency and poor control effect of the controller.Therefore,this paper proposes a scenario-driven hybrid distributed model predictive control algorithm with variable control topology.This algorithm divides multiple stability regions based on the vehicle’s β−γ phase plane,forming a mapping relationship between the control structure and the vehicle’s state.A control input fusion mechanism within the transition domain is designed to mitigate the problems of system state oscillation and control input jitter caused by switching control structures.Then,a distributed state-space equation with state coupling and input coupling characteristics is constructed,and a weighted local agent cost function in quadratic programming is derived.Through cost coupling,local agents can coordinate global performance goals.Finally,through Simulink/CarSim joint simulation and hardware-in-the-loop(HIL)test,the proposed algorithm is validated to improve vehicle stability while ensuring trajectory tracking accuracy and has good applicability for multi-objective coordinated control.This paper combines the advantages of distributed MPC and decentralized MPC,achieving a balance between approximating the global optimal results and the solution’s efficiency.

文摘Premature senescence in Bacillus thuringiensis(Bt)cotton has emerged as a significant challenge to the formation and realization of fiber yield and quality since its commercialization in 1997.Initially,premature senescence was thought to be an inherent trait associated with the Bt gene.However,subsequent research and practice have demonstrated that it is not directly linked to the Bt gene but rather results from a physiological imbalance between the sink and source,as well as between the root and shoot in Bt cotton.This short review provides an overview of the causes,mechanisms,and control measures for premature senescence in Bt cotton.It offers valuable insights for future research and the sustainable application of transgenic crops.

文摘This paper investigates modified fixed-time synchronization(FxTS)of complex networks(CNs)with time-varying delays based on continuous and discontinuous controllers.First,for the sake of making the settling time(ST)of FxTS is independent of the initial values and parameters of the CNs,a modified fixed-time(FxT)stability theorem is proposed,where the ST is determined by an arbitrary positive number given in advance.Then,continuous controller and discontinuous controller are designed to realize the modified FxTS target of CNs.In addition,based on the designed controllers,CNs can achieve synchronization at any given time,or even earlier.And control strategies effectively solve the problem of ST related to the parameters of CNs.Finally,an appropriate simulation example is conducted to examine the effectiveness of the designed control strategies.
