First, we derive the statistical formula on the basis of estimations. Next, we design a scheme for evaluating the transfer alignment on a moving base, for which the attitude error cannot be directly measured. Then, we build a mathematic estimation model and discuss Fixed Point Smoothing(FPS), Returns to Scale(RTS), Inverted Sequence Recursive Estimation(ISRE), and Kalman filter estimation methods, which can be used when evaluating alignment accuracy. Our theoretical calculations and simulated analyses show that the DOA reflects not only the alignment time and accuracy but also differences in the maneuver schemes, and is suitable for use as an integrated evaluation index. Furthermore, all four of these algorithms can be used to identify the transfer alignment and evaluate its accuracy. We recommend RTS in particular for engineering applications. Generalized DOAs should be calculated according to the tactical requirements.展开更多

They need to have a very large field of view(FOV)( > 120°) and relatively low accuracy while being used in the aircrafts around orbit. A triple-FOV infrared earth sensor is proposed in this paper. It uses three pieces of standard infrared detectors with a wavelength range of 14;16μm,to sense the horizontal circle by detecting the infrared light emitted from the earth. From which,the geocentric vector can be obtained. A mathematic model is established and a validation model is set up to provide input parameters for the mathematic model. The simulation results of the two models show that the output of the mathematic model coincides with the known parameters. Based on the above analysis,a prototype has been built and tested. The test results show that the angle measurement error is about 0. 002° and hence such a triple-FOV earth sensor is capable to provide high-precision position information for autonomous navigation.展开更多

Accuracy analysis is the basis of accuracy design. However, a rapid and effective accuracy analysis method for parallel manipulator is still needed. In order to enhance solution efficiency, an interval analysis method(lA method) is introduced to solve the terminal error bound of the Stewart platform with detailed solution path. Taking a terminal pose of the Stewart platform in FAST as an example, the terminal error is solved by the Monte Carlo method(MC method) by 4 980 s, the stochastic mathematical method(SM method) by 0.078 s, and the IA method by 2.203 s. Compared with MC method, the terminal error by SM method leads a 20% underestimate while the IA method can envelop the real error bound of the Stewart platform. This indicates that the IA method outperforms the other two methods by providing quick calculations and enveloping the real error bound of the Stewart platform. According to the given structural error of the dimension parameters of the Stewart platform, the IA method gives a maximum position error of 19.91 mm and maximum orientation error of 0.534°, which suggests that the IA method can be used for accuracy design of the Stewart platfbnn in FAST. The 1A method presented is a rapid and effective accuracy analysis method for Stewart platform.展开更多

Thus, to propose a concise and intuitive type synthesis method for engineering application is a very challenging issue, which should be further studied in the field. Grassmann line geometry, which can investigate the dimensions of spatial line-clusters in a concise way, is taken as the mathematic foundation. Atlas method is introduced to visually describe the degrees of freedom(DOFs) and constraints of a mechanism, and the dual rule is brought in to realize the mutual conversion of the freedom-space and constraint-space. Consequently, a systematic method based on Grassmann line geometry and Atlas method is generated and the entire type synthesis process is presented. Three type 4-DOF PKMs, i.e., 1T3R, 2T2R and 3T1R(T: translational DOF; R: rotational DOF), are classified according to the different combinations of the translational DOFs and rotational DOFs. The type synthesis of 4-DOF PKMs is carried out and the possible configurations are thoroughly investigated. Some new PKMs with useful functions are generated during this procedure. The type synthesis method based on Grassmann line geometry and Atlas method is intuitive and concise, and can reduce the complexity of the PKMs' type synthesis. Moreover, this method can provide theoretical guidance for other PKMs' type synthesis and engineering application. A novel type synthesis method is proposed, which solves the existing methods' problems in terms of complicated, not intuitive and unsuitable for practical application.展开更多

The structural features of parallel manipulators are dynamic, a characteristic that is particularly significant when these manipulators are used in high-speed machine tools. However, normal kinematic control method cannot satisfy the requirements of the control system. Many researchers use model-based dynamic control methods, such as the dynamic feedforward control method. However, these methods are rarely used in hybrid machine tools because of the complex dynamic model of the parallel manipulator. In order to study the dynamic control method of parallel manipulators, the dynamic feedforward control method is used in the dynamic control system of a 3-PSP (prismatic-spherical-prismatic) 3-DOF spatial parallel manipulator used as a spindle head in a high-speed hybrid machine tool. Using kinematic analysis as basis and the Newton-Euler method, we derive the dynamic model of the parallel manipulator. Furthermore, a model-based dynamic feedforward control system consisting of both kinematic control and dynamic control subsystems is established. The dynamic control subsystem consists of two modules. One is used to eliminate the influence of the dynamic characteristics of high-speed movement, and the other is used to eliminate the dynamic disturbances in the milling process. Finally, the simulation model of the dynamic feedforward control system of the 3-PSP parallel manipulator is constructed in Matlab/Simulink. The simulations of the control system eliminating the influence of the dynamic characteristics and dynamic disturbances are conducted. A comparative study between the simulations and the normal kinematic control method is also presented.The simulations prove that the dynamic feedforward control method effectively eliminates the influence of the dynamic disturbances and dynamic characteristics of the parallel manipulator on high-speed machine tools, and significantly improves the trajectory accuracy. This is the first attempt to introduce the dynamic feedfordward control method into the 3-PSP spatial parallel manipulator whose dynamic model is complex and provides a study basis for the real-time dynamic control of the high-speed hybrid machine tools.展开更多

A maximum capacitance of 311 F/g is obtained for an electrode prepared with the precipitation process. In order to enhance energy density, an asymmetric type pseudo-capacitor/electric double layer capacitor is considered and its electrochemical properties are investigated. Values for the specific energy and maximum specific power of 25.8 W·h/kg and 2.8 kW/kg, respectively, are demonstrated for a cell voltage between 0 and 1.6 V. By using the modified cathode of a Ni(OH)2/carbon nanotube composite electrode, the asymmetric supercapacitor exhibits high energy density and stable power characteristics.展开更多

Femtosecond laser ablation has the capability to fabricate three-dimensional micro/nanostructures in hard materials. However, the low efficiency, low precision and high surface roughness are the main stumbling blocks for femtosecond laser processing of hard materials. So far, etching- assisted femtosecond laser modification has demonstrated to be the efficient strategy to solve the above problems when processing hard materials, including wet etching and dry etching. In this review, femtosecond laser modification that would influence the etching selectivity is introduced. The fundamental and recent applications of the two kinds of etching assisted femtosecond laser modification technologies are summarized. In addition, the challenges and application prospects of these technologies are discussed.展开更多

文摘Two^(87)Sr optical lattice clocks(OLCs)are being developed and operated at the National Institute of Metrology(NIM),located on different campuses that are 40km apart.In order to compare the optical frequencies of these two Sr OLCs,a 58-km noise canceled fiber link is built to transfer both a 1542-nm transfer laser and a microwave reference from Changping campus to Hepingli campus.Two commercial optical frequency combs(OFCs)with adapted single-branch 698/1542nm outputs coherently unite the two 698-nm clock lasers and the 1542-nm transfer laser.The fractional instability of the comparison yields 3.1×10^(−17)at 10000 s averaging time.The measured fractional frequency difference between these two Sr OLCs was evaluated to be 1.9(3.2)×10^(−17),which is within their claimed uncertainties.This result demonstrates the consistency of their frequencies when they serve as optical frequency standards.Our remote comparison demonstrates the feasibility of optical clock comparison through a long-distance fiber link and contributes to the progress of redefinition of the SI second.

文摘Efficient exciton transport over long distances is crucial for organic optoelectronics.Despite efforts to improve the transport properties of organic semiconductors,the limited exciton diffusion remains a significant obstacle for light-harvesting applications.In this study,we observe phenomena where exciton transport is significantly enhanced by light irradiation in the organic molecular crystal of 2,2'-(2,5-bis(2,2-diphenylvinyl)-1,4-phenylene)dinaphthalene(BDVPN).The exciton transport in this material is improved,as evidenced by the increased diffusion coefficient from 10^(−3) cm^(2)·s^(−1) to over 1 cm^(2)·s^(−1) and a prolonged diffusion length from less than 50 nm to nearly 700 nm characterized by time-resolved photoluminescence microscopy(TPLM).Additionally,we confirmed the enhancement of charge transport capability under irradiation as additional evidence of improved transport properties of the material.These intriguing phenomena may be associated with the material’s twisted molecular conformation and rotatable single bonds,which facilitate light-induced structural alterations conducive to efficient transport properties.Our work provides a novel insight into developing organic semiconductors with efficient exciton transport.

文摘A Stewart platform is introduced in thc 500 m aperture spherical radio telescope(FAST) as an accuracy adjustable mechanism for teed receivers. Accuracy analysis is the basis of accuracy design. However, a rapid and effective accuracy analysis method for parallel manipulator is still needed. In order to enhance solution efficiency, an interval analysis method(lA method) is introduced to solve the terminal error bound of the Stewart platform with detailed solution path. Taking a terminal pose of the Stewart platform in FAST as an example, the terminal error is solved by the Monte Carlo method(MC method) by 4 980 s, the stochastic mathematical method(SM method) by 0.078 s, and the IA method by 2.203 s. Compared with MC method, the terminal error by SM method leads a 20% underestimate while the IA method can envelop the real error bound of the Stewart platform. This indicates that the IA method outperforms the other two methods by providing quick calculations and enveloping the real error bound of the Stewart platform. According to the given structural error of the dimension parameters of the Stewart platform, the IA method gives a maximum position error of 19.91 mm and maximum orientation error of 0.534°, which suggests that the IA method can be used for accuracy design of the Stewart platfbnn in FAST. The 1A method presented is a rapid and effective accuracy analysis method for Stewart platform.

文摘Many methods are proposed to deal with the type synthesis of parallel kinematic mechanisms(PKMs), but most of them are less intuitive to some extent. Thus, to propose a concise and intuitive type synthesis method for engineering application is a very challenging issue, which should be further studied in the field. Grassmann line geometry, which can investigate the dimensions of spatial line-clusters in a concise way, is taken as the mathematic foundation. Atlas method is introduced to visually describe the degrees of freedom(DOFs) and constraints of a mechanism, and the dual rule is brought in to realize the mutual conversion of the freedom-space and constraint-space. Consequently, a systematic method based on Grassmann line geometry and Atlas method is generated and the entire type synthesis process is presented. Three type 4-DOF PKMs, i.e., 1T3R, 2T2R and 3T1R(T: translational DOF; R: rotational DOF), are classified according to the different combinations of the translational DOFs and rotational DOFs. The type synthesis of 4-DOF PKMs is carried out and the possible configurations are thoroughly investigated. Some new PKMs with useful functions are generated during this procedure. The type synthesis method based on Grassmann line geometry and Atlas method is intuitive and concise, and can reduce the complexity of the PKMs' type synthesis. Moreover, this method can provide theoretical guidance for other PKMs' type synthesis and engineering application. A novel type synthesis method is proposed, which solves the existing methods' problems in terms of complicated, not intuitive and unsuitable for practical application.

文摘A multiple-legged robot is traditionally controlled by using its dynamic model.But the dynamic-model-based approach fails to acquire satisfactory performances when the robot faces rough terrains and unknown environments.Referring animals' neural control mechanisms,a control model is built for a quadruped robot walking adaptively.The basic rhythmic motion of the robot is controlled by a well-designed rhythmic motion controller(RMC) comprising a central pattern generator(CPG) for hip joints and a rhythmic coupler(RC) for knee joints.CPG and RC have relationships of motion-mapping and rhythmic couple.Multiple sensory-motor models,abstracted from the neural reflexes of a cat,are employed.These reflex models are organized and thus interact with the CPG in three layers,to meet different requirements of complexity and response time to the tasks.On the basis of the RMC and layered biological reflexes,a quadruped robot is constructed,which can clear obstacles and walk uphill and downhill autonomously,and make a turn voluntarily in uncertain environments,interacting with the environment in a way similar to that of an animal.The paper provides a biologically inspired architecture,with which a robot can walk adaptively in uncertain environments in a simple and effective way,and achieve better performances.

文摘Structural deformation monitoring of flight vehicles based on optical fiber sensing(OFS)technology has been a focus of research in the field of aerospace.After nearly 30 years of research and development,Chinese and international researchers have made significant advances in the areas of theory and methods,technology and systems,and ground experiments and flight tests.These advances have led to the development of OFS technology from the laboratory research stage to the engineering application stage.However,a few problems encountered in practical applications limit the wider application and further development of this technology,and thus urgently require solutions.This paper reviews the history of research on the deformation monitoring of flight vehicles.It examines various aspects of OFS-based deformation monitoring including the main varieties of OFS technology,technical advantages and disadvantages,suitability in aerospace applications,deformation reconstruction algorithms,and typical applications.This paper points out the key unresolved problems and the main evolution paradigms of engineering applications.It further discusses future development directions from the perspectives of an evolution paradigm,standardization,new materials,intelligentization,and collaboration.

文摘Needle insertion is a common surgical procedure used in diagnosis and treatment.The needle steering technologies make continuous developments in theoretical and practical aspects along with the in-depth research on needle insertion.It is necessary to summarize and analyze the existing results to promote the future development of theories and applications of needle insertion.Thus,a survey of the state of the art of research is presented on algorithms of needle steering techniques,the surgical robots and devices.Based on the analysis of the needle insertion procedure,the concept of needle steering is defined as a kinematics problem,which is to place the needle at the target and avoid the obstacles.The needle steering techniques,including the artificial potential field method and the nonholonomic model,are introduced to control the needles for improving the accuracy.Based on the quasi-static thinking,the virtual spring model and the cantilever-beam model are developed to calculate the amount of needle deflection and generate the needle path.The phantoms instead of the real tissue are used to verify the models mentioned in most of the experimentations.For the desired needle trajectories,the image-guided robotic devices and some novel needles are presented to achieve the needle steering.Finally,the challenges are provided involving the controllability of the long flexible needle and the properties of soft tissue.The results and investigations can be used for further study on the precision and accuracy of needle insertion.

文摘Parallel manipulators with less than six degrees of freedom (DOF) have been increasingly used in high-speed hybrid machine tools. The structural features of parallel manipulators are dynamic, a characteristic that is particularly significant when these manipulators are used in high-speed machine tools. However, normal kinematic control method cannot satisfy the requirements of the control system. Many researchers use model-based dynamic control methods, such as the dynamic feedforward control method. However, these methods are rarely used in hybrid machine tools because of the complex dynamic model of the parallel manipulator. In order to study the dynamic control method of parallel manipulators, the dynamic feedforward control method is used in the dynamic control system of a 3-PSP (prismatic-spherical-prismatic) 3-DOF spatial parallel manipulator used as a spindle head in a high-speed hybrid machine tool. Using kinematic analysis as basis and the Newton-Euler method, we derive the dynamic model of the parallel manipulator. Furthermore, a model-based dynamic feedforward control system consisting of both kinematic control and dynamic control subsystems is established. The dynamic control subsystem consists of two modules. One is used to eliminate the influence of the dynamic characteristics of high-speed movement, and the other is used to eliminate the dynamic disturbances in the milling process. Finally, the simulation model of the dynamic feedforward control system of the 3-PSP parallel manipulator is constructed in Matlab/Simulink. The simulations of the control system eliminating the influence of the dynamic characteristics and dynamic disturbances are conducted. A comparative study between the simulations and the normal kinematic control method is also presented.The simulations prove that the dynamic feedforward control method effectively eliminates the influence of the dynamic disturbances and dynamic characteristics of the parallel manipulator on high-speed machine tools, and significantly improves the trajectory accuracy. This is the first attempt to introduce the dynamic feedfordward control method into the 3-PSP spatial parallel manipulator whose dynamic model is complex and provides a study basis for the real-time dynamic control of the high-speed hybrid machine tools.
文摘The composite electrodes consisting of carbon nanotubes and spherical Ni(OH)2 are developed by mixing nickel hydroxide, carbon nanotubes and carbonyl nickel powder together in 8:1:1 ratio. A maximum capacitance of 311 F/g is obtained for an electrode prepared with the precipitation process. In order to enhance energy density, an asymmetric type pseudo-capacitor/electric double layer capacitor is considered and its electrochemical properties are investigated. Values for the specific energy and maximum specific power of 25.8 W·h/kg and 2.8 kW/kg, respectively, are demonstrated for a cell voltage between 0 and 1.6 V. By using the modified cathode of a Ni(OH)2/carbon nanotube composite electrode, the asymmetric supercapacitor exhibits high energy density and stable power characteristics.
文摘The accuracy of the HB2 standard model attitude measurement has an important impact on the hypersonic wind tunnel data assessment.The limited size of the model and the existence of external vibrations make it challenging to obtain real-time reliable attitude measurement.To reduce the influence of attitude errors on test results,this paper proposes a Quaternion Nonlinear Complementary Filter(QNCF)attitude determination algorithm based on Microelectromechanical Inertial Measurement Unit(MEMS-IMU).Firstly,the threshold-based PI control strategy is adopted to eliminate noise effect according to the Acceleration Magnitude Detector(AMD).Then,the flexible quaternion method is updated to carry out attitude estimation which is operational and easy to be embedded in the Field Programmable Gate Array(FPGA).Finally,a high-precision three-axis turntable test and a hypersonic wind tunnel test are performed.The results show that the pitchroll attitude errors are within 0.05°and 0.08°in the high-precision three-axis turntable test in a calculation time of 100 s respectively,and the attitude error is within 0.3°after the elastic angle correction in the hypersonic wind tunnel test.The proposed method can provide accurate real-time attitude reference for the analysis of the actual movement of the model,exhibiting certain engineering application value with robustness and simplicity.

文摘With high hardness, high thermal and chemical stability and excellent optical performance, hard materials exhibit great potential applications in various fields, especially in harsh conditions. Femtosecond laser ablation has the capability to fabricate three-dimensional micro/nanostructures in hard materials. However, the low efficiency, low precision and high surface roughness are the main stumbling blocks for femtosecond laser processing of hard materials. So far, etching- assisted femtosecond laser modification has demonstrated to be the efficient strategy to solve the above problems when processing hard materials, including wet etching and dry etching. In this review, femtosecond laser modification that would influence the etching selectivity is introduced. The fundamental and recent applications of the two kinds of etching assisted femtosecond laser modification technologies are summarized. In addition, the challenges and application prospects of these technologies are discussed.

文摘There are two main trends in the development of unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)technologies:miniaturization and intellectualization,in which realizing object tracking capabilities for a nano-scale UAV is one of the most challenging problems.In this paper,we present a visual object tracking and servoing control system utilizing a tailor-made 38 g nano-scale quadrotor.A lightweight visual module is integrated to enable object tracking capabilities,and a micro positioning deck is mounted to provide accurate pose estimation.In order to be robust against object appearance variations,a novel object tracking algorithm,denoted by RMCTer,is proposed,which integrates a powerful short-term tracking module and an efficient long-term processing module.In particular,the long-term processing module can provide additional object information and modify the short-term tracking model in a timely manner.Furthermore,a positionbased visual servoing control method is proposed for the quadrotor,where an adaptive tracking controller is designed by leveraging backstepping and adaptive techniques.Stable and accurate object tracking is achieved even under disturbances.Experimental results are presented to demonstrate the high accuracy and stability of the whole tracking system.
