文摘The cross-domain capabilities of aerial-aquatic vehicles(AAVs)hold significant potential for future airsea integrated combat operations.However,the failure rate of AAVs is higher than that of unmanned systems operating in a single medium.To ensure the reliable and stable completion of tasks by AAVs,this paper proposes a tiltable quadcopter AAV to mitigate the potential issue of rotor failure,which can lead to high-speed spinning or damage during cross-media transitions.Experimental validation demonstrates that this tiltable quadcopter AAV can transform into a dual-rotor or triple-rotor configuration after losing one or two rotors,allowing it to perform cross-domain movements with enhanced stability and maintain task completion.This enhancement significantly improves its fault tolerance and task reliability.
文摘The global adoption of Electric Vehicles(EVs)is on the rise due to their advanced features,with projections indicating they will soon dominate the private vehicle market.However,improper management of EV charging can lead to significant issues.This paper reviews the development of high-power,reliable charging solutions by examining the converter topologies used in rectifiers and converters that transfer electricity from the grid to EV batteries.It covers technical details,ongoing developments,and challenges related to these topologies and control strategies.The integration of rapid charging stations has introduced various Power Quality(PQ)issues,such as voltage fluctuations,harmonic distortion,and supra-harmonics,which are discussed in detail.The paper also highlights the benefits of controlled EV charging and discharging,including voltage and frequency regulation,reactive power compensation,and improved power quality.Efficient energy management and control strategies are crucial for optimizing EV battery charging within microgrids to meet increasing demand.Charging stations must adhere to specific converter topologies,control strategies,and industry standards to function correctly.The paper explores microgrid architectures and control strategies that integrate EVs,energy storage units(ESUs),and Renewable Energy Sources(RES)to enhance performance at charging points.It emphasizes the importance of various RES-connected architectures and the latest power converter topologies.Additionally,the paper provides a comparative analysis of microgrid-based charging station architectures,focusing on energy management,control strategies,and charging converter controls.The goal is to offer insights into future research directions in EV charging systems,including architectural considerations,control factors,and their respective advantages and disadvantages.

文摘In this paper,a novel guidance law is proposed which can achieve the desired impact speed and angle simultaneously for unpowered gliding vehicles.A guidance law with only impact angle constraint is used to produce the guidance profile,and its convergence in the varying speed scenario is proved.A relationship between flight states,guidance input and impact speed is established.By applying the fixed-time convergence control theory of error dynamics,an impact speed corrector is built with the above guidance profile,which can implement impact speed correction without affecting the impact angle constraint.Numerical simulations with various impact speed and angle constraints are conducted to demonstrate the performance of the proposed guidance law,and the robustness is also verified by Monte Carlo tests.

文摘The rapid proliferation of electric vehicle(EV)charging infrastructure introduces critical cybersecurity vulnerabilities to power grids system.This study presents an innovative anomaly detection framework for EV charging stations,addressing the unique challenges posed by third-party aggregation platforms.Our approach integrates node equations-based on the parameter identification with a novel deep learning model,xDeepCIN,to detect abnormal data reporting indicative of aggregation attacks.We employ a graph-theoretic approach to model EV charging networks and utilize Markov Chain Monte Carlo techniques for accurate parameter estimation.The xDeepCIN model,incorporating a Compressed Interaction Network,has the ability to capture complex feature interactions in sparse,high-dimensional charging data.Experimental results on both proprietary and public datasets demonstrate significant improvements in anomaly detection performance,with F1-scores increasing by up to 32.3%for specific anomaly types compared to traditional methods,such as wide&deep and DeepFM(Factorization-Machine).Our framework exhibits robust scalability,effectively handling networks ranging from 8 to 85 charging points.Furthermore,we achieve real-time monitoring capabilities,with parameter identification completing within seconds for networks up to 1000 nodes.This research contributes to enhancing the security and reliability of renewable energy systems against evolving cyber threats,offering a comprehensive solution for safeguarding the rapidly expanding EV charging infrastructure.

文摘This work proposes the application of an iterative learning model predictive control(ILMPC)approach based on an adaptive fault observer(FOBILMPC)for fault-tolerant control and trajectory tracking in air-breathing hypersonic vehicles.In order to increase the control amount,this online control legislation makes use of model predictive control(MPC)that is based on the concept of iterative learning control(ILC).By using offline data to decrease the linearized model’s faults,the strategy may effectively increase the robustness of the control system and guarantee that disturbances can be suppressed.An adaptive fault observer is created based on the suggested ILMPC approach in order to enhance overall fault tolerance by estimating and compensating for actuator disturbance and fault degree.During the derivation process,a linearized model of longitudinal dynamics is established.The suggested ILMPC approach is likely to be used in the design of hypersonic vehicle control systems since numerical simulations have demonstrated that it can decrease tracking error and speed up convergence when compared to the offline controller.

文摘Exo-atmospheric vehicles are constrained by limited maneuverability,which leads to the contradiction between evasive maneuver and precision strike.To address the problem of Integrated Evasion and Impact(IEI)decision under multi-constraint conditions,a hierarchical intelligent decision-making method based on Deep Reinforcement Learning(DRL)was proposed.First,an intelligent decision-making framework of“DRL evasion decision”+“impact prediction guidance decision”was established:it takes the impact point deviation correction ability as the constraint and the maximum miss distance as the objective,and effectively solves the problem of poor decisionmaking effect caused by the large IEI decision space.Second,to solve the sparse reward problem faced by evasion decision-making,a hierarchical decision-making method consisting of maneuver timing decision and maneuver duration decision was proposed,and the corresponding Markov Decision Process(MDP)was designed.A detailed simulation experiment was designed to analyze the advantages and computational complexity of the proposed method.Simulation results show that the proposed model has good performance and low computational resource requirement.The minimum miss distance is 21.3 m under the condition of guaranteeing the impact point accuracy,and the single decision-making time is 4.086 ms on an STM32F407 single-chip microcomputer,which has engineering application value.

文摘Considering the uncertainty of grid connection of electric vehicle charging stations and the uncertainty of new energy and residential electricity load,a spatio-temporal decoupling strategy of dynamic reactive power optimization based on clustering-local relaxation-correction is proposed.Firstly,the k-medoids clustering algorithm is used to divide the reduced power scene into periods.Then,the discrete variables and continuous variables are optimized in the same period of time.Finally,the number of input groups of parallel capacitor banks(CB)in multiple periods is fixed,and then the secondary static reactive power optimization correction is carried out by using the continuous reactive power output device based on the static reactive power compensation device(SVC),the new energy grid-connected inverter,and the electric vehicle charging station.According to the characteristics of the model,a hybrid optimization algorithm with a cross-feedback mechanism is used to solve different types of variables,and an improved artificial hummingbird algorithm based on tent chaotic mapping and adaptive mutation is proposed to improve the solution efficiency.The simulation results show that the proposed decoupling strategy can obtain satisfactory optimization resultswhile strictly guaranteeing the dynamic constraints of discrete variables,and the hybrid algorithm can effectively solve the mixed integer nonlinear optimization problem.
文摘The finite volume method was applied to numerically simulate the bottom pressure field induced by regular waves,vehicles in calm water and vehicles in regular waves.The solution of Navier-Stokes(N-S)equations in the vicinity of numerical wave tank's boundary was forced towards the wave theoretical solution by incorporating momentum source terms,thereby reducing adverse effects such as wave reflection.Simulations utilizing laminar flow,turbulent flow,and ideal fluid models were all found capable of effectively capturing the waveform and bottom pressure of regular waves,agreeing well with experimental data.In predicting the bottom pressure field of the submerged vehicle,turbulent simulations considering fluid viscosity and boundary layer development provided more accurate predictions for the stern region than inviscid simulations.Due to sphere's diffractive effect,the sphere's bottom pressure field in waves is not a linear superposition of the wave's and the sphere's bottom pressure field.However,a slender submerged vehicle exhibits a weaker diffractive effect on waves,thus the submerged vehicle's bottom pressure field in waves can be approximated as a linear superposition of the wave's and the submerged vehicle's bottom pressure field,which simplifies computation and analysis.
