This pa...In real-time hybrid simulation(RTHS), it is difficult if not impossible to completely erase the error in restoring force due to actuator response delay using existing displacement-based compensation methods. This paper proposes a new force correction method based on online discrete tangent stiffness estimation(online DTSE) to provide accurate online estimation of the instantaneous stiffness of the physical substructure. Following the discrete curve parameter recognition theory, the online DTSE method estimates the instantaneous stiffness mainly through adaptively building a fuzzy segment with the latest measurements, constructing several strict bounding lines of the segment and calculating the slope of the strict bounding lines, which significantly improves the calculation efficiency and accuracy for the instantaneous stiffness estimation. The results of both computational simulation and real-time hybrid simulation show that:(1) the online DTSE method has high calculation efficiency, of which the relatively short computation time will not interrupt RTHS; and(2) the online DTSE method provides better estimation for the instantaneous stiffness, compared with other existing estimation methods. Due to the quick and accurate estimation of instantaneous stiffness, the online DTSE method therefore provides a promising technique to correct restoring forces in RTHS.展开更多

Some experiments on the wave-current force on inclined cylinders are also described and the wave current force coefficients are estimated by the revised cross-spectrum estimation method. From the results, it is found that the wave and current directions have some regular effect on the coefficients. According to the results, some empirical formulas are obtained for converting the wave-current force coefficients on inclined cylinders into a unified coefficient. Comparisons show that the unified coefficients are in good agreement with other results.展开更多

Based on the two kinds of Gaussian estimation error models, the performance analysis is conducted under different power allocation strategies. Analysis and simulation show that if the covariance of channel estimation errors is independent of the received Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR), imperfect channel knowledge deteriorates the sum capacity and the Bit Error Rate (BER) performance severely. However, under the situation of orthogonal training and the Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) channel estimation, the sum ca- pacity and BER performance are consistent with those of the perfect Channel State Information (CSI) with only a performance degradation.展开更多

The study emphasizes on the application and control of PAM actuators which may be considered as the new generation of actuators comprising fluidic muscle that has high-tension force, high power to weight ratio and high strength in spite of its drawbacks in the form of high nonlinearity behaviour, high hysteresis and time varying parameters. Fuzzy Logic (FL) is used as a technique to estimate the best value of the inertia matrix of robot arm essential for the AFC mechanism that is complemented with a conventional Propor- tional-Integral-Derivative (PID) control at the outermost loop. A simulation study was first performed followed by an experi- mental investigation for validation. The experimental study was based on the independent joint tracking control and coordinated motion control of the arm in Cartesian or task space. In the former, the PAM actuated arm is commanded to track the prescribed trajectories due to harmonic excitations at the joints for a given frequency, whereas for the latter, two sets of trajectories with different loadings were considered. A practical rig utilizing a Hardware-In-The-Loop Simulation (HILS) configuration was developed and a number of experiments were carried out. The results of the experiment and the simulation works were in good agreement, which verified the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed AFCAFL scheme actuated by PAM.展开更多

文摘The interaction between an elastic structure and electrodynamic shakers commonly exists in Ground Flutter Simulation Tests(GFST)with multi-point excitations,causing a considerable discrepancy between the practical excitation forces and desired ones.To investigate the excitation force characteristics on a cantilever beam excited by a voltage-sourced electrodynamic shaker,the coupled shaker-beam system is modeled to derive the excitation force formula using Hamilton’s principle and Galerkin’s approach.Simulation results using the multi-mode beam model coupled with the shaker model are in good agreement with experimental results,verifying that the proposed multi-mode method can accurately predict the excitation force.Furthermore,parametric studies show that the influence of system parameters on the excitation force is related to the shaker’s operating mode.Unlike in current mode of shaker,when the beam resonant frequency approaches the suspension frequency of shaker armature,the variation of excitation force amplitude in voltage mode is no longer minimal.Meanwhile,if the exciting point in the GFST is located far away from the modal node,it is essential to compensate the force because the accuracy of tests can be reduced dramatically.The coupled shaker-beam model proposed in this paper can provide the basis for compensation measures.
文摘It is necessary to know the status of adhesion conditions between wheel and rail for efficient accelerating and decelerating of railroad vehicle.The proper estimation of adhesion conditions and their real-time implementation is considered a challenge for scholars.In this paper,the development of simulation model of extended Kalman filter(EKF)in MATLAB/Simulink is presented to estimate various railway wheelset parameters in different contact conditions of track.Due to concurrent in nature,the Xilinx®System-on-Chip Zynq Field Programmable Gate Array(FPGA)device is chosen to check the onboard estimation ofwheel-rail interaction parameters by using the National Instruments(NI)myRIO®development board.The NImyRIO®development board is flexible to deal with nonlinearities,uncertain changes,and fastchanging dynamics in real-time occurring in wheel-rail contact conditions during vehicle operation.The simulated dataset of the railway nonlinear wheelsetmodel is tested on FPGA-based EKF with different track conditions and with accelerating and decelerating operations of the vehicle.The proposed model-based estimation of railway wheelset parameters is synthesized on FPGA and its simulation is carried out for functional verification on FPGA.The obtained simulation results are aligned with the simulation results obtained through MATLAB.To the best of our knowledge,this is the first time study that presents the implementation of a model-based estimation of railway wheelset parameters on FPGA and its functional verification.The functional behavior of the FPGA-based estimator shows that these results are the addition of current knowledge in the field of the railway.
文摘We estimate the influenza force according to the virus type in the USA (United States of America) for the season 2010/11 to 2019/20. For these we use the data available from CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) related to Public Health Laboratory Virologic Age Surveillance and The Burden Estimates presented by CDC yearly.

文摘Swift perception of interaction forces is a crucial skill required for legged robots to ensure safe human-robot interaction and dynamic contact management.Proprioceptive-based interactive force is widely applied due to its outstanding cross-platform versatility.In this paper,we present a novel interactive force observer,which possesses superior dynamic tracking performance.We propose a dynamic cutoff frequency configuration method to replace the conventional fixed cutoff frequency setting in the traditional momentum-based observer(MBO).This method achieves a balance between rapid tracking and noise suppression.Moreover,to mitigate the phase lag introduced by the low-pass filtering,we cascaded a Newton Predictor(NP)after MBO,which features simple computation and adaptability.The precision analysis of this method has been presented.We conducted extensive experiments on the point-foot biped robot BRAVER to validate the performance of the proposed algorithm in both simulation and physical prototype.
