Rotary-wing UAV is characterized by its flexible start-stop mode, high safety profile and night navigation. In this paper, according to the DY-115 rotary-wing UAV, an aeromagnetic measuring system with 115KG large load capacity was designed and integrated, and a magnetic compensation flight and test flight were successively carried out. The data satisfi ed the requirements of the technical specifi cations. By comparing and analyzing the test aeromagnetic anomaly data with the field magnetic data, the overall trend of the contour was observed to be basically the same as the shape. Accordingly, the aeromagnetic anomaly was found to be smoother and more continuous, which aligned with the interpretation and inversion of the anomaly, further verifying the stability, reliability and practicability of the large load rotary-wing UAV aeromagnetic measurement system.展开更多

文摘Articular cartilage maintains joint homeostasis by adapting to mechanical loading,but both insufficient and excessive loading can impair cartilage integrity.Whether mechanical activity should be restricted in early osteoarthritis(OA),particularly among exercise enthusiasts,remains controversial.Here,we established in vitro and in vivo models of prolonged moderate mechanical loading(7.5%strain,1 Hz)and analyzed human cartilage from weight-bearing and non-weight-bearing regions using RNA sequencing.Prolonged exposure(≥12 h)significantly increased chondrocyte apoptosis(2.3-fold),reduced expression of the chondrogenic transcription factor SOX9 and the matrix markers COL2A1,and elevated nerve growth factor(NGF)expression(1.8-fold),accompanied by enrichment of neural sensitization and inflammatory pathways.Immunofluorescence staining revealed NGF accumulation in mechanically stressed cartilage.Unlike high-intensity stress,which led to immediate apoptosis,moderate loading induced a delayed pro-apoptotic response after 12 h.These findings indicate that prolonged moderate mechanical loading may promote chondrocyte apoptosis through an NGFmediated inflammatory microenvironment and provide mechanistic evidence suggesting that patients with early OA may benefit from limiting high-impact or prolonged moderate-intensity exercise sessions to prevent cartilage damage and guide rehabilitation.

文摘This paper presents an ultralow-frequency cyclic loading creep test system for rock salt.The system comprises five subsystems:a cyclic load generation system,a triaxial pressure chamber,a pressure and deformation monitoring system,a signal acquisition and load control integrated system,and an automatic oil replenishment and discharge system.This test system overcomes the limitations of traditional electrohydraulic servo creep testing machines and gravity loading creep testing machines when conducting low-frequency cyclic load creep tests.This allows for long-term(1-2 years)creep tests under extremely-low-frequency cyclic loading conditions,which simulate the actual operating conditions of salt cavern gas storage.The cyclic load generation system converted constant-weight loads into a continuously variable hydraulic oil pressure and amplified the oil pressure using a pressure intensifier,which provided a stable load source for the test system.Using this test system,creep tests were performed under low-frequency cyclic loading with periods of 1 d and 7 d.The results showed that the test system performed well,as evidenced by the validation of the loading capacity,loading stability,and temperature control stability.Comparing the creep deformation of rock salt samples with the cyclic periods of 1 d and 7 d,it was observed that,within this cyclic period range,the creep deformation of the sample increased with higher loading frequencies,provided that the cyclic loading waveform and stress remained constant.

文摘Cranes used at sea have some shortcomings in terms of flexibility,efficiency,and safety.Therefore,a floating multi-robot coordinated towing system is planned to fulfill the offshore towing requirements.It is difficult to study the stability of a floating multi-robot coordinated towing system by ancient strategies.First,the minimum tension of the rope and the minimum singular value of the stiffness matrix were separately used to analyze the load stability.The advantages and disadvantages of the two methods were discussed.Then,the two stability analysis methods were normalized and weighted to obtain the method based on minimum tension and minimum singular to comprehensively analyze the stability of the load.Finally,the effect of different weighting coefficients on the load stability was analyzed,which led to a reasonable weighting coefficient to evaluate the load stability by comparing with a single analysis method.The research results provide a basis for the motion planning and coordinated control of the towing system.

文摘UAV geophysical surveys can adapt to complex ground exploration environments and greatly reduce the safety risk of operators, which may be applied in geophysical surveys, geological investigations, resource exploration and other fields. Rotary-wing UAV is characterized by its flexible start-stop mode, high safety profile and night navigation. In this paper, according to the DY-115 rotary-wing UAV, an aeromagnetic measuring system with 115KG large load capacity was designed and integrated, and a magnetic compensation flight and test flight were successively carried out. The data satisfi ed the requirements of the technical specifi cations. By comparing and analyzing the test aeromagnetic anomaly data with the field magnetic data, the overall trend of the contour was observed to be basically the same as the shape. Accordingly, the aeromagnetic anomaly was found to be smoother and more continuous, which aligned with the interpretation and inversion of the anomaly, further verifying the stability, reliability and practicability of the large load rotary-wing UAV aeromagnetic measurement system.
文摘This study develops a GWO-optimized cascaded fuzzy-PID controller with triangular membership functions for load frequency control in interconnected power systems.The controller’s effectiveness is demonstrated on thermal–thermal and hybrid thermal–hydro–gas power systems.The controller parameters were tuned using the Integral Time Absolute Error(ITAE)objective function,which was also evaluated alongside other objective functions(IAE,ISE,and ITSE)to ensure high precision in frequency stabilization.To validate the effectiveness of the triangular membership function,comparisons were made with fuzzy-PID controllers employing trapezoidal and Gaussian membership functions.Performance metrics,including ITAE,settling time,overshoot,and undershoot of frequency deviation,as well as tie-line power deviation,were evaluated.Robustness was established through a comprehensive sensitivity analysis with T_(G),T_(T),andT_(R) parameter variations(±50%),a non-linearity analysis incorporating Generation Rate Constraint(GRC)and Governor Deadband(GDB),a random Step Load Perturbation(SLP)over 0–100 s,and also Stability analysis of the proposed scheme is conducted using multiple approaches,including frequency-domain analysis,Lyapunov stability theory,and eigenvalue analysis.Additionally,the system incorporating thermal,hydro,and gas turbines,along with advanced components like CES and HVDC links,was analysed.Comparisons were conducted against controllers optimized using Modified Grasshopper Optimization Algorithm(MGOA),Honey Badger Algorithm(HBA),Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO),Artificial Bee Colony(ABC),and Spider Monkey Optimization(SMO)algorithms.Results demonstrate that the GWO-based fuzzy-PID controller outperforms the alternatives,exhibiting superior performance across all evaluated metrics.This highlights the potential of the proposed approach as a robust solution for load frequency control in complex and dynamic power systems.

文摘Background Interconnection of different power systems has a major effect on system stability.This study aims to design an optimal load frequency control(LFC)system based on a proportional-integral(PI)controller for a two-area power system.Methods Two areas were connected through an AC tie line in parallel with a DC link to stabilize the frequency of oscillations in both areas.The PI parameters were tuned using the cuckoo search algorithm(CSA)to minimize the integral absolute error(IAE).A state matrix was provided,and the stability of the system was verified by calculating the eigenvalues.The frequency response was investigated for load variation,changes in the generator rate constraint,the turbine time constant,and the governor time constant.Results The CSA was compared with particle swarm optimization algorithm(PSO)under identical conditions.The system was modeled based on a state-space mathematical representation and simulated using MATLAB.The results demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed controller based on both algorithms and,it is clear that CSA is superior to PSO.Conclusion The CSA algorithm smoothens the system response,reduces ripples,decreases overshooting and settling time,and improves the overall system performance under different disturbances.

文摘Under external disturbances,the shear mechanical responses and debonding failure mechanisms at anisotropic interfaces of anchoring system composed of multiphase media are inherently difficult to characterize due to the concealment nature of interfacial interactions.This study establishes an equivalent shear model for a bolt-resin-rock anchoring system and conducts direct shear tests under dynamic normal load(DNL)boundary from both laboratory experiments and discrete element method(DEM)simulations.The research investigates the influence of normal dynamic load amplitude(An)and rock type on shear strength parameters,elucidating the evolutionary characteristics and underlying mechanisms of shear load and normal displacement fluctuations induced by cyclic normal loading,with maximum shear load decreasing by 36.81%to 46.94%as An increases from 10%to 70%when rock type varies from coal to limestone.Through analysis of strain field evolution,the critical impact of rock type on localization of shear failure surface is revealed,with systematic summarization of differentiated wear characteristics,failure modes,and key controlling factors associated with shear failure surface.Mesoscopic investigations enabled by DEM simulations uncover the nonuniform distribution of contact force chains within the material matrix and across the anisotropic interfaces under various DNL boundaries,clarify rock type dependent crack propagation pathways,and quantitatively assess the damage extent of shear failure surface,with the anisotropic interface damage factor increasing from 34.9%to 56.6%as An rises from 10%to 70%,and decreasing from 49.6%to 23.4%as rock type varies from coal to limestone.
文摘In deep drilling applications,such as those for geothermal energy,there are many challenges,such as those related to efficient operation of the drilling fluid(mud)pumping system.Legacy drilling rigs often use paired,parallel-connected independent-excitation direct-current(DC)motors for mud pumps,that are supplied by a single power converter.This configuration results in electrical power imbalance,thus reducing its efficiency.This paper investigates this power imbalance issue in such legacy DC mud pump drive systems and offers an innovative solution in the form of a closed-loop control system for electrical load balancing.The paper first analyzes the drilling fluid circulation and electrical drive layout to develop an analytical model that can be used for electrical load balancing and related energy efficiency improvements.Based on this analysis,a feedback control system(so-called“current mirror”control system)is designed to balance the electrical load(i.e.,armature currents)of parallel-connected DC machines by adjusting the excitation current of one of the DC machines,thus mitigating the power imbalance of the electrical drive.Theproposed control systemeffectiveness has been validated,first through simulations,followed by experimental testing on a deep drilling rig during commissioning and field tests.The results demonstrate the practical viability of the proposed“current mirror”control system that can effectively and rather quickly equalize the armature currents of both DC machines in a parallel-connected electrical drive,and thus balance both the electrical and mechanical load of individual DC machines under realistic operating conditions of the mud pump electrical drive.

文摘Load frequency control(LFC)is a critical function to balance the power consumption and generation.Thegrid frequency is a crucial indicator for maintaining balance.However,the widely used information and communication infrastructure for LFC increases the risk of being attacked by malicious actors.The dynamic load altering attack(DLAA)is a typical attack that can destabilize the power system,causing the grid frequency to deviate fromits nominal value.Therefore,in this paper,we mathematically analyze the impact of DLAA on the stability of the grid frequency and propose the network parameter regulation(NPR)to mitigate the impact.To begin with,the dynamic LFC model is constructed by highlighting the importance of the network parameter.Then,we model the DLAA and analyze its impact on LFC using the theory of second-order dynamic systems.Finally,we model the NPR and prove its effect in mitigating the DLAA.Besides,we construct a least-effort NPR considering its infrastructure cost and aim to reduce the operation cost.Finally,we carry out extensive simulations to demonstrate the impact of the DLAA and evaluate the mitigation performance of NPR.The proposed cost-benefit NPR approach can not only mitigate the impact of DLAA with 100%and also save 41.18$/MWh in terms of the operation cost.
文摘This paper studies the structural response of high-speed train wipers under the combined action of complex flow fields and scraping actions.The stress concentration areas are determined through simulation analysis,and the stress and aerodynamic load measurement points are reasonably arranged accordingly.The actual measurement is carried out in combination with the operating conditions of the existing lines.The stress variations and spectral characteristics of the train under different speed levels(80,160,180,200 km/h),tunnel entry and exit,and scraper action conditions were compared and analyzed.The stress amplification factors under tunnel intersection and scraper action were obtained,providing boundary conditions for the design of wipers for highspeed s.The research results show that the maximum stress of the wiper structure obtained through simulation calculation is concentrated at the connection of the wiper arm.Structural stress increases with the rise of speed grade.The stress increases by 1.11 times when the tunnel meets.When the scraper operates,the stress on the scraper arm increases by 4.1–7.6 times.Due to the broadband excitation effect of the aerodynamic load,the spectral energy of the structure is relatively high at the natural frequency,which excites the natural mode of the wiper.

文摘LEO satellite communication systems have the characteristics of high-speed and periodic movement.The handover of user link occurs frequently,which has a serious impact on user terminal application and system capacity.To address this issue,we propose a handover strategy of LEO satellite user terminal based on multi-attribute and multi-point(MAMP)cooperation.Firstly,the satellite-user-time matrix is established by using the satellite constellation coverage and handover model.Then,combined with the visual time and signal quality,the user access matrix and satellite load matrix are extracted to determine the weight equation of the handover strategy with the channel reservation.According to the system modeling simulation,the algorithm improves the handover success rate by 2.5%,the lasted call access success rate by 3.2%,the load balancing degree by 20%,and the robustness by two orders of magnitude.

文摘The variation laws of runoff and sediment load under different climate,vegetation,and human activity scenarios are significantly different.Exploring the impacts of climate change and human activities on runoff and sediment load dynamics can provide a profound understanding of the mechanism of runoff and sediment load variability in basins,which is crucial for the sustainable development of regional ecosystems.This study investigates the Tao River Basin(TRB)on the Tibetan Plateau,as well as the Zuli River Basin(ZRB)and Jing River Basin(JRB)on the Loess Plateau,to differentiate the impacts of climate change and human activities on runoff and sediment load dynamics.The runoff and sediment load of the three watersheds have shown a decreasing trend over the past 40 years,and combined with the DMC(Dual mass curve)method,it was found that the slope of the runoff sediment gradually tends to flatten out.After the time period was divided,the CA(Cumulative anomaly)method was used for verification,which revealed good correspondence between the two before 2000 and then gradual deviations.The power function best represents the relationship between runoff and sediment load.During the initial period,climate had a significant impact on runoff variation in the TRB and JRB,with contribution rates of-54.93%and-63.02%,respectively.In the later period,human activities became the dominant influence,contributing more than-60%of the runoff variation.In the ZRB,human activities consistently dominated runoff variation,with contribution rates of-72.72%and-55.66%during both periods.In the early stages of research,the impact of climate change on sediment load was more severe in the TRB and JRB,and human activities played a significant role in the later stages.However,in the ZRB,human activities have always been the main contributor.Based on the actual local situation,runoff and sediment load in the TRB are influenced primarily by engineering measures,and vegetation and check dams exert greater impacts on the ZRB and JRB.This study explores the attribution of water and sediment load changes in different ecological geographic regions from a comparative perspective,providing a valuable theoretical basis and reference for understanding global runoff and sediment transport changes in similar areas.

文摘Studies of wave-current interactions are vital for the safe design of structures.Regular waves in the presence of uniform,linear shear,and quadratic shear currents are explored by the High-Level Green-Naghdi model in this paper.The five-point central difference method is used for spatial discretization,and the fourth-order Adams predictor-corrector scheme is employed for marching in time.The domain-decomposition method is applied for the wave-current generation and absorption.The effects of currents on the wave profile and velocity field are examined under two conditions:the same velocity of currents at the still-water level and the constant flow volume of currents.Wave profiles and velocity fields demonstrate substantial differences in three types of currents owing to the diverse vertical distribution of current velocity and vorticity.Then,loads on small-scale vertical cylinders subjected to regular waves and three types of background currents with the same flow volume are investigated.The maximum load intensity and load fluctuation amplitude in uniform,linear shear,and quadratic shear currents increase sequentially.The stretched superposition method overestimates the maximum load intensity and load fluctuation amplitude in opposing currents and underestimates these values in following currents.The stretched superposition method obtains a poor approximation for strong nonlinear waves,particularly in the case of the opposing quadratic shear current.
