In order to reduce the vibration of smart structures, this paper gets the optimal location of piezoelectric patch by the D-optimal design principle, and then uses a fuzzy logic controller which was designed base on optimal fuzzy rules to control it. The D-optimal design principle is an optimization method which chosen by the maximum determinant of Fisher Information Matrix Criteria. Study on the mode shapes and dynamic characteristics of structure, and the mode shapes of selected structural are converted into unitary mode. In order to approach higher level of vibration control, piezoelectric patches are placed on the maximum mode strain locations of the structure.

Tracking speed and stability of adaptive gradient filtering algorithms represented by least mean square (LMS) are restricted for non-stationary circumstance. A joint processor which consist of the gradient lattice filter and transversal LMS linear combiner was designed, the performance of processor were investigated when the input signals were interfered by white noise, Volvo noise and pink noise respectively. The noise canceling computer simulation testified that the joint processor could get stabilization only after 20 iterative operations, and provide stronger ability to boost SNR of weak signal compared with transversal LMS filter. All the performance indices including tracking ability and convergence stability are superior to the transversal LMS algorithm in the same circumstance, and it needs less hardware resource.

Bridge condition assessment is usually conducted by bridge inspectors on the basis of visual inspections. This inevitably involves human being’s subjective judgments and uncertainties. This paper presents a novel approach for developing a performance evaluation system for existing bridges. The system evaluates the performance of bridges under deterioration on the basis of domain knowledge. Characteristic features of this study are the determination of weight based on domain knowledge. A hypothetical case shows that the proposed evaluation approach offers a flexible and effective way of rating bridge conditions.

An adaptive neural network control strategy for a class of nonlinear system is proposed, which combines the technique in generalized predictive control theory and the gradient descent rule to accelerate learning and improve convergence with neural network’s capability of approximating to nonlinear function, Taking the neural network as a model of the system, control signals are directly obtained by minimizing the cumulative differences between a setpoint and output of the model. The effectiveness of the proposed control scheme is illustrated through simulations.

In view of domestic traffic, the traffic flow is increasing rapidly recent years, whereas the traffic control is deficient. This paper presents a design of intelligent traffic control system based on DSP and Nios II. Using Dual-CPU, Intelligent Traffic Control System combined with logic control in FPGA implements kinds of functions, which include cross-phase adjustment, exchanging and establishing related information, live human-computer interaction and remote control etc. The system works mostly at the mode of timing and multiple phases according to the user demands dynamically, thus it breaks through the bottleneck of traditional traffic signal controller, and can accomplish the control in complicated and diversified traffic. This paper gives the realization of hardware system as well as the software system. The experiment results show that the Intelligent Traffic Control System can completely meet the requirements of modern traffic control.

In this paper, an ultrasonic-based localization using ultrasonic reflection method is proposed. Experiment environment includes a mobile robot and four poles forming a square around the measuring site. Ultrasonic sensors built on the poles serve as receivers and the mobile robot serves as a transmitter, and all ultrasonic sensors are integrated with their Zig-Bee modules. By the sequential ultrasonic signal transmission between the robot and the poles, the ultrasonic sensors on the poles can then measure the time-of-flight (TOF) without interference to calculate the distance between the receiver and transmitter ends. According to an established two-dimensional coordinate model, position of the robot can be obtained based on the distance measurements. Thanks to Zig-Bee modules, position information of the robot can be instantly conveyed to a remote PC for monitoring the robot and path planning. Extensive experiments conducted have shown a satisfactory accuracy of the coordinates of the mobile robot can be obtained via the proposed localization scheme.
