The designed position and orientation(P&O) adjusting platform, based on an SP for force/torquedriven(F/T-driven) alignment, can dynamically measure interactive forces. This paper presents an analytical algorithm of measuring six-dimensional F/T based on the screw theory for accurate determination of external forces during alignment. Dynamic gravity deviations were taken into consideration and a compensation model was developed. The P&O number was optimized as well.Given the specific appearance of repeated six-dimensional F/T measurements, an approximate cone shape was used for spatial precision analysis. The magnitudes and directions of measured F/Ts can be evaluated by a set of standards, in terms of accuracy and repeatability. Experiments were also performed using a known applied load, and the proposed analytical algorithm was able to accurately predict the F/T. A comparison between precision analysis experiments with or without assembly fixtures was performed. Experimental results show that the measurement accuracy varies under different P&O sets and higher loads lead to poorer accuracy of dynamic gravity compensation. In addition, the preferable operation range has been discussed for high-precision assemblies with smaller deviations.展开更多

According to the coupling of input saturation and denial of service(DoS) attacks, impulsive control for MASs becomes extremely challenging. Considering general DoS attacks,this paper provides the sufficient conditions for the almost sure consensus of the MASs with input saturation, where the error system can achieve almost sure local exponential stability.Through linear matrix inequalities(LMIs), the relation between the trajectory boundary and DoS attacks is characterized, and the trajectory boundary is estimated. Furthermore, an optimization method of the domain of attraction is proposed to maximize the size. And a non-conservative and practical boundary is proposed to characterize the effect of DoS attacks on MASs. Finally, considering a multi-agent system with typical Chua's circuit dynamic model, an example is provided to illustrate the theorems' correctness.展开更多

文摘Soil greenhouse gas(GHG)emissions contribute profoundly to global warming;however,how plant detritus input alters GHG emissions is poorly understood.Here,we used detritus input and removal treatments(i.e.,DIRT:control,CK;double litter,DL;no roots with double litter,NRDL;no litter,NL;no roots,NR;no roots and no litter,NRNL)to assess the effects of litter and root inputs on soil CO_(2),CH_(4),and N_(2)O fluxes in soils in a coniferous(Pinus yunnanensis)and a broad-leaf forest(Quercus pannosa)in a subalpine region in southwestern China.Litter addition increased CO_(2) emissions on average 22.22%,but did not significantly alter CH_(4) uptake and N_(2)O emission compared to the CK.Litter removal(NL and NRNL)significantly reduced CO_(2) emissions on average 30.22%and N_(2)O emissions on average 31.16%from both forest soils,but did not significantly affect soil CH_(4) uptake.Root removal(NR and NRNL)generally decreased these three soil GHG fluxes.Changes inβ-1,4-glucosidase(BG)involved in C and phospholipid fatty acid(PLFAs)biomass were projected to influence CO_(2) emissions,while soil microclimates(temperature and moisture)combined with BG activity mainly regulated CH_(4) uptake.Alterations in dissolved organic nitrogen,microbial biomass nitrogen and BG were mainly responsible for changes in N_(2)O emissions.Interestingly,coniferous forest soil seemed to promote CH_(4) uptake more than the broad-leaf forest soil,but CO_(2) and N_(2)O fluxes were not significantly affected by the forest types.As expected,litter addition significantly increased the warming potential,while litter removal relatively lowered it.These findings revealed the divergent roles of plant detritus input and forest type in shaping soil GHG fluxes,thereby providing insights into forest management and predicting contributions of subalpine forests to global warming.

文摘Single-phase,non-isolated microinverters used in photovoltaic(PV)systems commonly encounter two persistent challenges:High-frequency leakage current and fluctuating power delivery.This paper presents a novel single-phase,non-isolated,multi-input microinverter topology with a common-ground structure that effectively eliminates ground leakage current without requiring additional active components.The proposed microinverter architecture integrates a dual-boost configuration and uses only four active switches.This is especially advantageous in terms of the component count,which is beneficial to enhance reliability,reduce cost,and simplify the overall system design.With one,two,or four PV inputs,it can operate without interruption under unbalanced voltage or partial shading and even if some inputs drop to zero.A tailored modulation scheme minimizes conduction losses while maintaining a stable direct-current(DC)-link voltage,and a decoupling capacitor efficiently absorbs the single-phase pulsating power,thus overcoming one major limitation in existing microinverter designs.By validating with a 1-kW GaN-based prototype,both the simulated and experimental results demonstrate its high efficiency,robustness,and practical suitability for cost-effective PV applications,with a peak efficiency value of 94.8%.
文摘This study investigates the impact of welding heat input on weldments of modified 9Cr-1Mo(P91)steel,a high-strength material that requires high-energy welding processes like submerged arc welding.In the as-welded condition,P91 steel welds primarily consist of untempered martensite,which transforms into tempered martensite during post-weld heat treatment(PWHT).Electron spectro-scopy analysis reveals the presence of M_(23)C_(6) and MX carbonitride precipitates at grain boundaries.Increasing the heat input leads to greater quantities of precipitates in the prior austenite grain boundaries,which can affect material properties.Weldment hardness profiles exhibit modest improvements,while ultimate tensile strength and toughness decrease with higher welding heat input,poten-tially due to the formation of a ferritic phase.Residual stress distributions are noticeably influenced by the welding heat input level.

文摘The Internet of Things(IoT)technology provides data acquisition,transmission,and analysis to control rehabilitation robots,encompassing sensor data from the robots as well as lidar signals for trajectory planning(desired trajectory).In IoT rehabilitation robot systems,managing nonvanishing uncertainties and input quantization is crucial for precise and reliable control performance.These challenges can cause instability and reduced effectiveness,particularly in adaptive networked control.This paper investigates networked control with guaranteed performance for IoT rehabilitation robots under nonvanishing uncertainties and input quantization.First,input quantization is managed via a quantization-aware control design,ensur stability and minimizing tracking errors,even with discrete control inputs,to avoid chattering.Second,the method handles nonvanishing uncertainties by adjusting control parameters via real-time neural network adaptation,maintaining consistent performance despite persistent disturbances.Third,the control scheme guarantees the desired tracking performance within a specified time,with all signals in the closed-loop system remaining uniformly bounded,offering a robust,reliable solution for IoT rehabilitation robot control.The simulation verifies the benefits and efficacy of the proposed control strategy.

文摘In this paper,Desulfovibrio vulgaris corrosion of X80 steel welded joint with different heat inputs was carefully investigated.The results confirmed that in the sterile medium,general corrosion rate and lo-calized corrosion susceptibility of heat affected zone(HAZ)were higher than those of weld zone(WZ)and base metal(BM).In the inoculated medium,the general corrosion rate of HAZ was still higher than that of WZ and BM.However,the number and depth of corrosion pits on WZ and BM surfaces,as well as the localized corrosion susceptibility,were much higher than those in HAZ,which was opposite to that in sterile environment,suggesting that the Desulfovibrio vulgaris corrosion of the welded joint was selective.With heat input increasing from 0.57 kJ/mm to 1.29 kJ/mm,general corrosion rate and localized corrosion susceptibility of HAZ and WZ simultaneously decreased in sterile or inoculated medium.In in-oculated medium,localized corrosion of HAZ decreased more sharply than weld zone.Within the range of heat inputs tested,the study discerned a positive correlation:higher heat inputs correlated with an enhanced corrosion resistance of welded joint,irrespective of environmental conditions being sterile or inoculated.The findings provide a solid basis for the welding parameter determination to steel pipelines in oil and gas transportation.

文摘To analyze the correlation between the input energy parameters(V_(E))and typical intensity measures(IMs)of offshore ground motions,based on 273 earthquake events recorded by the K-NET in Japan,892 offshore ground motion records with moment magnitudes from 4.0 to 7.0 were used in this study.Residuals obtained through a ground motion model were calculated and analyzed for the correlation between V_(E) and amplitude,duration,frequency content and cumulative IMs.The results indicate that PGV and PGD have strong correlation with the V_(E)(T>0.2 s and T>0.4 s),the duration IMs have weakly negative correlation with the V_(E),Sd_(1) has a strong correlation with the V_(E) in the periods of T>0.4 s,T_(g) has a weak correlation with V_(E) and the cumulative IMs have strong correlation with the V_(E).The parametric predictive equations between typical IMs and V_(E) was proposed,and the differences between the prediction equations from the onshore ground motion records were compared.The differences in parametric predicted equations between offshore and onshore ground motions were confirmed in this study.Proposed correlation equations can be applied to offshore probabilistic seismic hazard analysis and the selection of ground motion records by generalized conditional intensity measures.

文摘This paper proposes a novel multivalued recurrent neural network model driven by external inputs,along with two innovative learning algorithms.By incorporating a multivalued activation function,the proposed model can achieve multivalued many-to-one associative memory,and the newly developed algorithms enable effective storage of many-to-one patterns in the coefficient matrix while maintaining the indispensability of inputs in many-to-one associative memory.The proposed learning algorithm addresses a critical limitation of existing models which fail to ensure completely erroneous outputs when facing partial input missing in many-to-one associative memory tasks.The methodology is rigorously derived through theoretical analysis,incorporating comprehensive verification of both the existence and global exponential stability of equilibrium points.Demonstrative examples are provided in the paper to show the effectiveness of the proposed theory.

文摘Enhancing the stability and performance of practical control systems in the presence of nonlinearity,time delay,and uncertainty remains a significant challenge.Particularly,a class of strict-feedback nonlinear uncertain systems characterized by unknown control directions and time-varying input delay lacks comprehensive solutions.In this paper,we propose an observerbased adaptive tracking controller to address this gap.Neural networks are utilized to handle uncertainty,and a unique coordinate transformation is employed to untangle the coupling between input delay and unknown control directions.Subsequently,a new auxiliary signal counters the impact of time-varying input delay,while a Nussbaum function is introduced to solve the problem of unknown control directions.The leverage of an advanced dynamic surface control technique avoids the“complexity explosion”and reduces boundary layer errors.Synthesizing these techniques ensures that all the closed-loop signals are semi-globally uniformly ultimately bounded(SGUUB),and the tracking error converges to a small region around the origin by selecting suitable parameters.Simulation examples are provided to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed approach.

文摘This paper addresses the lane-keeping control problem for autonomous ground vehicles subject to input saturation and uncertain system parameters.An enhanced adaptive terminal sliding mode based prescribed performance control scheme is proposed,which enables the lateral position error of the vehicle to be kept within the prescribed performance boundaries all the time.This is achieved by firstly introducing an improved performance function into the controller design such that the stringent initial condition requirements can be relaxed,which further allows the global prescribed performance control result,and then,developing a multivariable adaptive terminal sliding mode based controller such that both input saturation and parameter uncertainties are handled effectively,which further ensures the robust lane-keeping control.Finally,the proposed control strategy is validated through numerical simulations,demonstrating its effectiveness.

文摘The effects of Ti/N ratio on the number densities of nano particles,the size of the prior austenite grain(PAG)and the toughness of the heat-affected zone(HAZ)of Mg-deoxidized steels were studied after high heat input welding of 400 kJ/cm.With increasing the Ti/N ratio from 2.7 to 5.7,the cuboid nano-sized particles are formed,and their number density increases.The area fractions of ductile intragranular acicular ferrites(IAFs)have the highest value and the area fractions of brittle microstructures of ferrite side plates and upper bainites have the lowest value in TN30 steel.With the Ti/N ratio of about 3.0,the HAZ of steel plate has the best low-temperature toughness.With increasing the Ti/N ratio from 2.7 to 5.7,the PAG sizes after the high-temperature laser scanning confocal microscopy observation decrease linearly with increasing the number densities of nano-sized particles.The PAG size of TN30 steel is between 100 and 150μm,which is conducive to the nucleation of IAFs.

文摘Unknown time-varying periodic disturbances and input delays can degrade control performance and even lead to system instability.This paper presents a novel direct adaptive output feedback controller based on the internal model principle(IMP)to compensate for the unknown time-varying periodic disturbance in input delay systems.To reduce the design difficulty of the controller,the input delay system is equivalent to an input delay-free system by constructing stable auxiliary systems.Next,all the stabilizing controllers of the input delay system are derived by using the Youla parameterization method.Based on the IMP,an interpolation condition to completely compensate for periodic disturbances is formulated.Then,to compensate for the unknown time-varying periodic disturbance,a parameter adaptive algorithm is designed to update the Q-parameters online.The convergence of adaptive algorithms is analyzed by the Lyapunov function theory.Simulation and experimental results validated the effectiveness of the proposed method.

文摘This paper investigates the secure impulsive consensus of Lipschitz-type nonlinear multi-agent systems(MASs) with input saturation. According to the coupling of input saturation and denial of service(DoS) attacks, impulsive control for MASs becomes extremely challenging. Considering general DoS attacks,this paper provides the sufficient conditions for the almost sure consensus of the MASs with input saturation, where the error system can achieve almost sure local exponential stability.Through linear matrix inequalities(LMIs), the relation between the trajectory boundary and DoS attacks is characterized, and the trajectory boundary is estimated. Furthermore, an optimization method of the domain of attraction is proposed to maximize the size. And a non-conservative and practical boundary is proposed to characterize the effect of DoS attacks on MASs. Finally, considering a multi-agent system with typical Chua's circuit dynamic model, an example is provided to illustrate the theorems' correctness.
