ABSTRACT Software rejuvenation is a policy to counter the phenomenon of software ageing. However, how to implement software rejuvenation is still an important issue. In this paper, periodic impulse control is proposed as an effective tool to perform software rejuvenation and improve the availability of software system. First, we formulate the software rejuvenation system with periodic impulse by a group of coupled differential equations with impulsive action. Then the well-posedness of the system is demonstrated by using operator semigroup theory. At the end of the paper, numerical examples are shown to illustrate the dynamic behaviour of the system and the relationship between the system instantaneous availability and the impulsive indexes, including impulse interval and impulse strength, which yields that the system availability can be improved by adjusting the impulsive indexes.

ABSTRACT The paper aims to evaluate the performance of the Lagrange-based finite element method and the non-uniform rational B-splines isogeometric analysis of time-harmonic acoustic exterior scattering problems using high-order local absorbing boundary conditions, in particular based on the Karp’s and Wilcox’s far-field expansions. The analysis of accuracy and convergence of both methods is achieved by observing the effect of the order of the approximating polynomial, the number of degrees of freedom, the wave number, and the absorbing boundary conditions tuning parameters. It is concluded that, regardless of the polynomial order, IGA provides a higher accuracy per degree of freedom compared to the traditional Lagrange-based finite element method.

ABSTRACT Modelling the human cardiorespiratory system using computer simulation tools can serve to help physicians to comprehend the causes and development of cardiorespiratory diseases. The objective of this paper is to develop an integrated model of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, along with their intrinsic control mechanisms, by combining analogous hydraulic-electric and diffusion-electric circuits, respectively. This modelling task is performed in object-oriented language in SIMSCAPE using the physical interconnected components to define the underlying dynamic equations. Simulation steady state results under rest and under variable physical exercise conditions, as well as under limiting conditions show a high qualitative agreement with clinical observations reported in literature. This object-oriented modelling approach, based on the combined use of electrical analogies, proves to be avaluable tool as a test bench for different strategies aimed to qualitative prediction of the effects of cardiorespiratory interactions during exercise, thus avoiding the formulation of complex mathematical models.

ABSTRACT In order to understand and to predict cable effects on structures, three-dimensional numerical models for a stranded cable and a beam–cable system consisting of a cantilever beam and two connected cables are presented. The multibond graph formalism is used to model the coupled cable–beam system, with the cable and beam substructures using 3D rigid lumped segments. The stranded cables are modelled considering the bending stiffness, tension and sag due to self-weight. The generally applicable cable-structure modelling approach in this paper is applied to vibration-based non-destructive evaluation of electrical utility poles, where simulated modal testing of the pole-conductor system is required. Experimental parametrization of a stranded cable is carried out using specially designed apparatus to accurately measure the bending stiffness at different tensions, and to measure the axial stiffness and axial damping. A reduced-scale lab set-up and finite element models are developed for verification of the numerical models. Experimental free and forced vibration testing is performed on individual cantilever beam and stranded cable subsystems, and on the coupled cable–beam system to verify the numerical models in the frequency and time domains. It is concluded that the 3D bond graph models can be used to understand the interaction between cable and structure, allowing prediction of the in-plane and out-of-plane natural frequencies and time response of the connected pole. It is also concluded that by adding the cable to the pole structure, some modes emerge in the eigenvalue solution of the system which may be categorized as cable-dominated modes, pole-dominated or hybrid modes.

ABSTRACT In this article, we derive a mechanical distributed parameter model for the annular sector plate segments of the Extremely Large Telescope’s deformable mirror M4. Additionally, we modally analyse the derived model via analytical and numerical approaches. The deformable mirror M4 is used to reject wavefront disturbances and enhance the optical imaging quality. We present a control oriented annular sector Kirchhoff–Love plate model featuring an elastic boundary condition and its modal analysis for one of the six identical M4 segments. Subsequently, we show that the well-known method of separation of variables is incompatible with the modal analysis of the presented distributed parameter model in cylindrical coordinates. Moreover, we successfully modally analyse the model using a finite difference approximation and a realistic construction of an M4 segment via a finite element approximation to compare the results. The modal analyses provide consistent results and therefore, both models underlying the analyses are consistent.

ABSTRACT Utilizing exoskeleton devices to help elderly or empower workers is a growing field of research in robotics. The structure of an exoskeleton can vary depending on user’s physical dimensions, joints or muscles targeted for assistance, and maximum achievable actuator torque. In this research, a Human-Model-In-the-Loop (HMIL) constrained optimization technique is proposed to design the RoboWalk lower-limb exoskeleton. RoboWalk is an under-actuated non-anthropomorphic assistive robot, that besides applying the desired assistive force, exerts an undesirable disturbing force leading to the user’s fall. The HMIL method uses the augmented human-robot 2D model to take RoboWalk and human body’s joint torques into account during optimization. The superiority of HMIL method is proven by comparing the results with other strategies in the literature. Obtained results reveal elimination of the disturbing forces, 2 N.m. reduction in average human knee-joint torque, and significant decrease in the actuator required torque.

ABSTRACT This research presents the mathematical modelling of kinematic and complete dynamic analysis of a novel over-constrained parallel mechanism, which consists of two universal-prismatic-revolute joint limbs and one revolute-revolute-universal joint limb. The kinematic model is constructed based on the closed-loop vector method and the velocity Jacobian matrix is deduced, velocity-mapping relationships between all moving components and moving platform are also performed. Afterwards, inertia and applied forces are analysed, the complete dynamic equations with the classical Stribeck friction model of the proposed structure is established based on the principle of virtual work. A theoretical numerical example is given to solve kinematics and dynamics solutions, and theoretical forces from developed dynamic formulation are verified by the physic model simulation in Simscape and the rigid-flexible coupling model simulation in Adams. A good agreement between the theoretical results and multi-body software simulation is found.

ABSTRACT Data from two thermo-mechanical pulp mills are collected to simulate the refining process using deep learning. A multilayer perceptron neural network is utilized for pattern recognition of the refining variables. Results show the impressive capability of artificial intelligence methods in refining energy simulation so that the correlation coefficient of 98% is accessible. A comprehensive parametric study has been made to investigate the effect of refining disturbance variables, plate gap and dilution water on refining energy simulation. The generated model reveals the non-linear hidden pattern between refining variables, which can be used for optimal refining control strategy. Considering the disturbance variables’ effect in refining energy simulation, model accuracy could increase by 15%. Removing the plate gape from predictive variables reduces the simulation determination coefficient by up to 25% in both mills, while the mentioned value for removing dilution water is 9–17% in mill 1 and about 35% in mill 2.

ABSTRACT Neural network models for complex dynamical systems typically do not explicitly account for structural engineering insight and mutual interrelations of various subprocesses that are related to the multi-physics nature of such systems. For that reason, they are commonly interpreted as a kind of data-driven, black box modelling option that is in opposition to a physically inspired equation-based system representation for which suitable parameters are subsequently identified in a grey box sense. To bridge the gap between data-driven and equation-based modelling paradigms, this paper proposes a novel approach for a physics-inspired structuring of neural networks. The derivation of this kind of structuring, an optimal choice of network inputs and numbers of neurons in a hidden layer as well as the achievable modelling accuracy are demonstrated for the thermal and electrochemical behaviour of high-temperature fuel cells. Finally, different network structures are compared against experimental data.

ABSTRACT Due to limited weight and stiffness, large-scale robots are susceptible to structural oscillations during operation. In this publication, a model for the vertical dynamics of an aerial rescue ladder as an application example for large scale flexible robots is derived based on the Lagrange formalism. The model consists of five flexible segments, each using an arbitrary number of flexible modes. Kinematic loops occurring due to the type of interconnection between the telescopic elements are implicitly solved by the chosen assumed modes. Linearized system matrices are extracted from the model directly and very efficiently. In the resulting modelling process, the manipulator is solely described by its position and orientation kinematics and thus an adaption to different kinds of manipulators is straightforward. A validation against real world measurement data confirms the high accuracy of the derived model.
