In this algorithm of tension control, the rotation speeds and waving angle of motors are measured and fed back to the controller, and the NLMS（ normalized least mean squares） algorithm is used to calculate the adaptive correction value and control the wire tension accurately. The computer simulation results in Matlab software validate the high accuracy for controlling the system of the wire tension with the NLMS algorithm in the multi-wire saw machining process.展开更多

The CEE is a multi-purpose spectrometer that will be used for various studies on heavy-ion collisions. A multi-wire drift chamber(MWDC) array is the forward tracking detector of the CEE. In this work, GEANT4 simulations were performed for the MWDC forward tracking array with a focus on the track reconstruction algorithm. Combined with the time of flight information,particle identification is achieved. The residue is about 30 μm, while the tracking efficiency is higher than 90%with the current redundancy. In addition, a prototype of the forward tracking system using three MWDCs was assembled and tested using a high-energy proton beam. The firing efficiency of the detector and the reconstruction accuracy of the prototype were derived. The track residue for the protons at about 400 MeV/c is better than 300 μm, meeting the requirements of the CEE. Suggestions for improving the performance of the forward tracking system are given.展开更多
