This kind of motor does not need a complex intermediate transmission device, it is used in some direct-drive applications for continuous rotation or limited angle motion. However, there is no systematic summary and generalization of the ALMs so far.Therefore, this paper systematically overviews the recent advances in ALMs for direct-drive systems. First, the evolution process and basic structure of the ALM are introduced. And then, various ALMs are reviewed with particular reference to motor topologies, working principle, motor performance,optimization design and control techniques. To heel, a comprehensive comparison of several typical ALMs is carried out. Finally, the application areas, main challenges and development trends of the ALMs are highlighted.展开更多

文摘Knowing the precise relationship between fuel loading and reactivity is essential for guiding reactor criticality extrapolation and online refueling in molten salt reactors(MSRs).This study aims to explore and explain the linear relationship between reactivity and the reciprocal of uranium concentration in thermal-spectrum MSRs.By applying neutron balance theory,we analyzed the neutron absorption cross sections of various nuclides in single-lattice models with varying fuel concentrations.Our findings reveal a simple linear correlation between reactivity and the reciprocal of uranium concentration,which can be explained from the perspective of nuclear reaction cross sections that adhere to the 1/v law in the thermal neutron spectrum.Furthermore,we identified that the neutron absorption single-group cross sections of structural materials and carrier salts exhibit an approximately linear relationship with the fission single-group cross section of ^(235) U;similarly,the reciprocal of ^(235)U’s fission cross section exhibits an approximately linear relationship with uranium concentration.This linear relationship deviates as the volume fraction of molten salt increases,due to a greater proportion of neutrons being captured in the resonance energy spectrum.However,it remains valid for molten salt volume fractions up to 25%and demonstrates broad applicability in the physical design and operation of thermal molten salt reactors.

文摘The operational demands of a wide range significantly exacerbate combustion instability issues within ramjet combustor.To suppress combustion oscillations,an open-loop control system utilizing Linear Genetic Programming(LGP)has been developed for a full-scale annular ramjet combustor.The LGP is used to generate control laws that include multi-frequency forcing.These laws are then transformed into square waves to actuate the solenoid valve,which modulates the kerosene supply for open-loop control.The results show that the duty cycle has little effect on instability amplitude,whereas an increase in frequency leads to a remarked reduction in combustion amplitude.After five generations evolvements,the pressure amplitude is reduced by 40.6% under the optimal control law generated by LGP.Furthermore,the machine learning process is depicted using a proximity map of control law similarity,with the search pathway visualized by the steepest descent.All individuals go forward to the upper left corner of the map with the evolution process,terminating at the optimal individual of the fifth generation.

文摘NaNbO_(3)-based lead-free dielectric ceramics possess significant application prospects in the field of dielectric capacitors.However,their development is hindered by low recoverable energy storage density(W_(rec))and energy storage efficiency(η).Herein,novel NaNbO_(3)-based ceramics,(1-x)[0.7Na_(0.97)Sm_(0.01)NbO_(3)–0.3(Sr_(0.7)Bi_(0.2))(Ti_(0.8)Zr_(0.2))O_(3)]–xCaTiO_(3),were created by adding CaTiO_(3) linear dielectric,aiming to improve their energy storage performance(ESP).The phase structure,microstructure,dielectric properties,energy storage and charge–discharge performances of the ceramics were methodically analyzed.All components of the ceramics exhibit a perovskite structure consisting of two phases:antiferroelectric P-phase(AFE P)and antiferroelectric R-phase(AFE R),with the AFE R phase increasing as x rises.All ceramic surfaces exhibit clear grain morphology.The resultant ceramics have an appropriate dielectric constant and a small dielectric loss,which are beneficial for improving breakdown field strength(E_(b)).Finally,at an E_(b) of 470 kV/cm,0.85[0.7Na_(0.97)Sm_(0.01)NbO_(3)–0.3(Sr_(0.7)Bi_(0.2))(Ti_(0.8)Zr_(0.2))O_(3)]–0.15CaTiO_(3) ceramic achieves optimal ESP:W_(rec)=3.9 J/cm^(3),η=72.49%.In addition,it has remarkable stability with temperature and frequency in energy storage and displays ultrafast speed in the charge–discharge process(t_(0.9)=27 ns).

文摘The exact feedback linearization method implies an accurate knowledge of the model and its parameters.This assumption is an inherent limitation of the method,suffering from robustness issues.In general,the model structure is only partially known and its parameters present uncertainties.The current paper extends the classical exact feedback linearization to the robust feedback linearization by adding an appropriatelydesigned robust control layer.This is then able to ensure robust stability and robust performance for the given uncertain system in a desired region of attraction.We consider the case of full relative degree input-affine nonlinear systems,which are of great practical importance in the literature.The inner loop contains the feedback linearization input for the nominal system and the resulting residual nonlinearities can always be characterized as inverse additive uncertainties.The constructive proofs provide exact representations of the uncertainty models in three considered scenarios:unmatched,fully-matched,and partially-matched uncertainties.The uncertainty model will be a descriptor system,which also represents one of the novelties of the paper.Our approach leads to a simplified control structure and a less conservative coverage of the uncertainty set compared to current alternatives.The end-to-end procedure is emphasized on an illustrative example,in two different hypotheses.
文摘This paper,the first-part of a two part series of surveys on Incremental Nonlinear Dynamic Inversion(INDI),provides an overview of the evolution and developments in INDI.Written in a tutorial style,it presents different basic INDI variants and their specifics,such as modelbased INDI,sensor-based INDI,and hybrid INDI.Furthermore,it sets these different approaches in context with each other.Later developments of INDI explicitly consider actuator dynamics.Those concepts are summarized and discussed in detail.Subsequently,studies that relate INDI to other control methods are summarized.Finally,an overview of various applications of INDI is given,covering different types of control loops and various types of vehicles and plants.This paper seeks to set these developments into context with each other.The purpose of this paper is twofold.INDI is already well-known in the domain of flight control but less so in other fields.Therefore,the paper is written in a comprehensive tutorial style to provide easy access to readers unfamiliar with the topic.On the other hand,the paper can serve as a reference for readers familiar with the topic.

文摘Due to the heterogeneity of rock masses and the variability of in situ stress,the traditional linear inversion method is insufficiently accurate to achieve high accuracy of the in situ stress field.To address this challenge,nonlinear stress boundaries for a numerical model are determined through regression analysis of a series of nonlinear coefficient matrices,which are derived from the bubbling method.Considering the randomness and flexibility of the bubbling method,a parametric study is conducted to determine recommended ranges for these parameters,including the standard deviation(σb)of bubble radii,the non-uniform coefficient matrix number(λ)for nonlinear stress boundaries,and the number(m)and positions of in situ stress measurement points.A model case study provides a reference for the selection of these parameters.Additionally,when the nonlinear in situ stress inversion method is employed,stress distortion inevitably occurs near model boundaries,aligning with the Saint Venant's principle.Two strategies are proposed accordingly:employing a systematic reduction of nonlinear coefficients to achieve high inversion accuracy while minimizing significant stress distortion,and excluding regions with severe stress distortion near the model edges while utilizing the central part of the model for subsequent simulations.These two strategies have been successfully implemented in the nonlinear in situ stress inversion of the Xincheng Gold Mine and have achieved higher inversion accuracy than the linear method.Specifically,the linear and nonlinear inversion methods yield root mean square errors(RMSE)of 4.15 and 3.2,and inversion relative errors(δAve)of 22.08%and 17.55%,respectively.Therefore,the nonlinear inversion method outperforms the traditional multiple linear regression method,even in the presence of a systematic reduction in the nonlinear stress boundaries.
文摘Incremental Nonlinear Dynamic Inversion(INDI)is a control approach that has gained popularity in flight control over the past decade.Besides the INDI law,several common additional components complement an INDI-based controller.This paper,the second part of a two-part series of surveys on INDI,aims to summarize the modern trends in INDI and its related components.Besides a comprehensive components specification,it addresses their most common challenges,compares different variants,and discusses proposed advances.Further important aspects of INDI are gain design,stability,and robustness.This paper also provides an overview of research conducted concerning these aspects.This paper is written in a tutorial style to familiarize researchers with the essential specifics and pitfalls of INDI and its components.At the same time,it can also serve as a reference for readers already familiar with INDI.

文摘Dear Editor,In this letter,several novel controllability results for a class of linear switched and impulsive systems are established.Different from the developed controllability conditions in most existing literature,the important role of switched and impulsive time sequence is considered.Applying the relevant geometric theory of matrix,a necessary and sufficient criterion for the controllability is firstly developed to judge when the controllability of such systems is affected by switched and impulsive time sequence.Furthermore,we further obtain a sufficient controllability condition that can be used to verify the controllability of such systems regardless of the switched and impulsive time sequence.Finally,a numerical example is given to verify the obtained theoretical results.

文摘We have designed,assembled,and tested a 4-MA,60-ns fast linear transformer driver(LTD),which is the first operating generator featuring multiple LTD modules connected in parallel.The LTD-based accelerator comprises six modules in parallel,each of which has ten-stage cavities stacked in series.The six LTD modules are connected to a water tank of diameter 6 m via a 3-m-long impedance-matched deionized waterinsulated coaxial transmission line.In the water tank,the electrical pulses are transmitted down by six horizontal tri-plate transmission lines.A 2.1-m-diameter two-level vacuum insulator stack is utilized to separate the deionized water region from the vacuum region.In the vacuum,the currents are further transported downstream by a two-level magnetically insulated transmission-line and then converged through four post-hole convolutes.Plasma radiation loads or bremsstrahlung electron beam diodes serve as loads that are expected to generate intense soft X rays or warm X rays.The machine is 3.2 m in height and 22 m in outer diameter,including support systems such as a high-voltage charge supply,magnetic core reset system,trigger system,and support platform for inner stalk installation and maintenance.A total of 1440 individual±100-kV multi-gap spark switches and 2880 individual 100-kV capacitors are employed in the accelerator.A total of 12 fiberoptic laser-controlled trigger generators combining photoconductive and traditional gas spark switch technologies are used to realize the synchronous discharge of the more than 1000 gas switches.At an LTD charge voltage of±85 kV,the accelerator stores an initial energy of about 300 kJ and is expected to deliver a current of 3–5 MA into various loads.To date,the LTD facility has shot into a thick-walled aluminum liner load and a reflex triode load.With a thick-walled aluminum liner of inductance 1.81 nH,a current with peak up to 4.1 MA and rise time(10%–90%)of about 60 ns has been achieved.The current transport efficiency from the insulator stack to the liner load approaches 100%during peak times.The LTD accelerator has been used to drive reflex triode loads generating warm X rays with high energy fluence and large radiation area.It has been demonstrated that this LTD is a promising and high-efficiency prime pulsed power source suitable for use in constructing the next generation of large-scale accelerators with currents of tens of megaamperes.

文摘We study the existence and stability of dark-gap solitons in linear lattice and nonlinear lattices.The results indicate that the combination of linear and nonlinear lattices gives dark-gap solitons unique properties.The linear lattice can stabilize dark-gap solitons,while the nonlinear lattice reduces the stability of dark-gap solitons.On the basis of numerical analysis,we investigate the effects of lattice depth,chemical potential,nonlinear lattice amplitude,and nonlinear lattice period on the soliton in mixed lattices with the same and different periods.The stability of dark-gap soliton is studied carefully by means of real-time evolution and linear stability analysis.Dark-gap solitons can exist stably in the band gap,but the solitons formed by the mixed lattices are slightly different when the period is the same or different.

文摘Piecewise linear systems are prevalent in engineering practice,and can be categorized into symmetric and asymmetric piecewise linear systems.Considering that symmetry is a special case of asymmetry,it is essential to investigate the broader model,namely the asymmetric piecewise linear system.The traditional averaging method is frequently used for studying nonlinear systems,particularly symmetric piecewise linear systems,with the harmonic response of the oscillator serving as a key prerequisite for calculating steady-state solutions.However,asymmetric systems inherently exhibit nonharmonic,asymmetric responses,rendering the traditional averaging method inapplicable.To overcome this limitation,this paper introduces an improved averaging method tailored for an oscillator characterized by asymmetric gaps and springs.Unlike the traditional method,which assumes a purely harmonic response,the improved averaging method redefines the system response as a superposition of a direct current(DC)term and a first harmonic component.Herein,the DC term can be regarded as the offset induced by model asymmetry.Furthermore,the DC term is treated as a slow variable function of time,with its time derivative assumed to be zero when calculating the steady-state solution,akin to the amplitude and phase in the traditional averaging method.Numerical validation demonstrates that the responses computed in both time and frequency domains with the improved averaging method exhibit greater accuracy compared with those derived from the traditional method.Leveraging these improved results,the study also examines the parameter effect,stability,and bifurcation phenomena within the amplitude-frequency responses.

文摘The arc-linear motor(ALM) is a new type of special motor derived from the linear motor, which has the merits of high torque, compact structure and fast dynamic response. This kind of motor does not need a complex intermediate transmission device, it is used in some direct-drive applications for continuous rotation or limited angle motion. However, there is no systematic summary and generalization of the ALMs so far.Therefore, this paper systematically overviews the recent advances in ALMs for direct-drive systems. First, the evolution process and basic structure of the ALM are introduced. And then, various ALMs are reviewed with particular reference to motor topologies, working principle, motor performance,optimization design and control techniques. To heel, a comprehensive comparison of several typical ALMs is carried out. Finally, the application areas, main challenges and development trends of the ALMs are highlighted.
