Analysis of non-stationary and nonlinear sound signals obtained from dynamical processes is one of the greatest challenges in signal processing. Turning machine operation is a highly dynamic process influenced by many events, such as dynamical responses, chip formations and the operational conditions of machining. Traditional and widely used fast Fourier transformation and spectrogram are not suitable for processing sound signals acquired from dynamical systems as their results have significant deficiencies because of stationary assumptions and having an a priori basis. A relatively new technique, discrete wavelet transform (DWT), which uses Wavelet decomposition (WD), and the recently developed technique, Hilbert–Huang Transform (HHT), which uses empirical mode decomposition (EMD), have notably better properties in the analysis of nonlinear and non-stationary sound signals. The EMD process helps the HHT to locate the signal’s instantaneous frequencies by forming symmetrical envelopes on the signal. The objective of this paper is to present a comparative study on the decomposition of multi-component sound signals using EMD and WD to highlight the suitability of HHT to analyze tool-emitted sound signals received from turning processes. The methodology used to achieve the objective is recording a tool-emitted sound signal by way of conducting an experiment on a turning machine and comparing the results of decomposing the signal by WD and EMD techniques. Apart from the short mathematical and theoretical foundations of the transformations, this paper demonstrates their decomposition strength using an experimental case study of tool flank wear monitoring in turning. It also concludes HHT is more suitable than DWT to analyze tool-emitted sound signals received from turning processes.

With the continuous progress and development of technology, the Internet of Everything (IoE) is gradually becoming a research hotspot. More companies and research institutes are focusing on the connectivity and transmission between multiple devices in asymmetric networks, such as V2X, Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), environmental monitoring, disaster management, agriculture, and so on. The number of devices and business volume of these applications have rapidly increased in recent years, which will lead to a large load of terminals and affect the transmission efficiency of IoE data transmission. To deal with this issue, it has been proposed to perform data transmission via multipath cooperative transmission with multihop transmission. This approach aims to improve transmission latency, energy consumption, reliability, and throughput. This paper designs a channel-sensing-based cooperative transmission mechanism (CSCTM) with hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) for user equipment (UE) aggregation mechanism in future asymmetric IoE scenarios, which ensures that IoE devices data can be transmitted quickly and reliably, and supports real-time data processing and analysis. The main contents of this proposed method include strategies of cooperative transmission and redundancy version (RV) determination, a joint combination of decoding process at the receiving side, and a design of transmission priority through ascending offset sort (AOS) algorithm based on channel sensing. In addition, multihop technology is designed for the multipath cooperative transmission strategy, which enables cooperative nodes (CN) to help UE to transmit data. As a result, it can be obtained that CSCTM provides significant advancements in latency and energy consumption for the whole system. It demonstrates improvements in enhanced coverage, improved reliability, and minimized latency.

In this current paper, we propose to study a three-dimensional Moran model (Xn(1),Xn(2),Xn(3)), where each random walk (Xn(i))∈{1,2,3} increases by one unit or is reset to zero at each unit of time. We analyze the joint law of its final altitude Xn=max(Xn(1),Xn(2),Xn(3)) via the moment generating tools. Furthermore, we show that the limit distribution of each random walk follows a shifted geometric distribution with parameter 1−qi, and we analyze the maximum of these three walks, also giving explicit expressions for the mean and variance.

As a complex nonlinear system, the inverted pendulum (IP) system has the characteristics of asymmetry and instability. In this paper, the IP system is controlled by a learned deep neural network (DNN) that directly maps the system states to control commands in an end-to-end style. On the basis of deep reinforcement learning (DRL), the detail reward function (DRF) is designed to guide the DNN learning control strategy, which greatly enhances the pertinence and flexibility of the control. Moreover, a two-phase learning protocol (offline learning phase and online learning phase) is proposed to solve the “real gap” problem of the IP system. Firstly, the DNN learns the offline control strategy based on a simplified IP dynamic model and DRF. Then, a security controller is designed and used on the IP platform to optimize the DNN online. The experimental results demonstrate that the DNN has good robustness to model errors after secondary learning on the platform. When the length of the pendulum is reduced by 25% or increased by 25%, the steady-state error of the pendulum angle is less than 0.05 rad. The error is within the allowable range. The DNN is robust to changes in the length of the pendulum. The DRF and the two-phase learning protocol improve the adaptability of the controller to the complex and variable characteristics of the real platform and provide reference for other learning-based robot control problems.

The solar atmosphere is a complex, coupled, highly dynamic plasma environment, which shows rich structuring due to the presence of gravitational and magnetic fields. Several features of the Sun’s atmosphere can serve as guiding media for magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves. At the same time, these waveguides may contain flows of various magnitudes, which can then destabilise the waveguides themselves. MHD waves were found to be ubiquitously present in the solar atmosphere, thanks to the continuous improvement in the spatial, temporal, and spectral resolution of both space-born and ground-based observatories. These detections, coupled with recent theoretical advancements, have been used to obtain diagnostic information about the solar plasma and the magnetic fields that permeate it, by applying the powerful concept of solar magneto-seismology (SMS). The inclusion of asymmetric shear flows in the MHD waveguide models used may considerably affect the seismological results obtained. Further, they also influence the threshold for the onset of the Kelvin–Helmholtz instability, which, at high enough relative flow speeds, can lead to energy dissipation and contribute to the heating of the solar atmosphere—one of the long-standing and most intensely studied questions in solar physics.

The skew distribution has the characteristic of appropriately modeling asymmetric unimodal data. However, in practice, there are several cases in which the data present more than one mode. In the literature, it is possible to find a large number of authors who have studied extensions based on the skew distribution to model this type of data. In this article, a new family is introduced, consisting of a multimodal modification to the family of skew distributions. Using the methodology of the weighted version of a function, we perform the product of the density function of a family of skew distributions with a polynomial of degree 4, thus obtaining a more flexible model that allows modeling data sets, whose distribution contains at most three modes. The density function, some properties, moments, skewness coefficients, and kurtosis of this new family are presented. This study focuses on the particular cases of skew-normal and Laplace distributions, although it can be applied to any other distribution. A simulation study was carried out, to study the behavior of the model parameter estimates. Illustrations with real data, referring to medicine and environmental data, show the practical performance of the proposed model in the two particular cases presented.

Techniques for producing fast Huygens–Fresnel–Kirchhoff digital holograms using kernel symmetry are studied. This study demonstrates non-linear behavior in computing time, as the sampled area changes with respect to the propagated diffracted area. Given the large amount of data involved in 3D object formation, symmetries are crucial in reducing the computational time. The evaluation of diffraction patterns is implemented to avoid redundant calculations while preserving the precision of the results. This algorithm decreases the required computing time depending on the symmetry of the axes, compared to direct calculation. Interestingly, the reduction in computing time relative to the number of symmetries is not linear. Computing time curves are presented. Some redundant computations are determined by the initial conditions of the object matrix, whether even or odd, along its x and y axes. Diagonal symmetries possess intrinsic redundancy along their axes. The rotation of the image must align with the rotation of the geometric coordinates in each section to ensure accurate calculations.
研究了利用核对称性快速制作惠更斯-菲涅尔-基尔霍夫数字全息图的技术。这项研究表明,随着采样区域相对于传播衍射区域的变化,计算时间也会发生非线性变化。鉴于三维物体形成涉及大量数据,对称性对于减少计算时间至关重要。对衍射图样进行评估是为了避免冗余计算,同时保持计算结果的精确性。与直接计算相比,该算法可根据轴对称性减少所需的计算时间。有趣的是,计算时间的减少与对称性的数量无关。计算时间曲线如下。一些冗余计算是由对象矩阵的初始条件决定的,无论是偶数还是奇数,都是沿其 x 轴和 y 轴进行的。对角对称矩阵沿其轴线具有内在冗余。图像的旋转必须与各部分几何坐标的旋转一致,以确保计算的准确性。

This paper presents a concomitant observer-based multi-level fault-tolerant control (FTC) for near-space vehicles (NSVs) with a new type dissimilar redundant actuation system (NT-DRAS). When NSV flight control system faults occur in NT-DRAS and attitude-corresponding sensors, the NSV hybrid output states, including the concomitant observer usable states and the real system states, are applied to solve the FTC gain by using the linear quadratic regulator (LQR) technique. Furthermore, since NT-DRAS is used in NSVs, a multi-level (actuation system level and flight control level) FTC strategy integrating NT-DRAS channel switching and flight control LQR is proposed for complex and worsening fault cases. The most important finding is that though the proposed strategy is applicable for worsening fault cases in NSVs, systematic and accurate criteria for the process being performed are necessary and can improve the FTC efficiency with minimal FTC resources. Additionally, such criteria can improve the NSV’s responsiveness to comprehensive faults, provided that the real-time performance of the fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) scheme can be further optimized. The concomitant observer convergence and the multi-level FTC strategy have been verified by numerical simulations based on the Matlab/Simulink platform.
本文提出了一种基于伴随观测器的多级容错控制(FTC),适用于带有新型异样冗余执行系统(NT-DRAS)的近空间飞行器(NSV)。当NSV飞行控制系统的NT-DRAS和姿态对应传感器发生故障时,NSV混合输出状态,包括伴随的观测器可用状态和真实系统状态,通过线性二次调节器(LQR)技术用于求解FTC增益。此外,由于在 NSV 中使用了 NT-DRAS,因此针对复杂和恶化的故障情况,提出了一种集成 NT-DRAS 信道切换和飞行控制 LQR 的多级(执行系统级和飞行控制级)FTC 策略。最重要的发现是,尽管所提出的策略适用于 NSV 中的恶化故障情况,但必须对正在执行的过程制定系统而准确的标准,这样才能以最少的 FTC 资源提高 FTC 效率。此外,只要能进一步优化故障检测和诊断(FDD)方案的实时性能,这些标准还能提高 NSV 对综合故障的响应能力。基于 Matlab/Simulink 平台的数值仿真验证了相应的观测器收敛性和多级 FTC 策略。

The experimental environment of the JUNO is a spherical container filled with a liquid scintillator (alkylbenzene) with a diameter of about 35 m. To observe neutrino interactions in alkylbenzene with photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) and to precisely measure the neutrino properties in this environment, it is necessary to design a high-precision localization system for the PMT device. In this paper, we report the design of an ultrasonic localization system with a symmetrical receiving array, based on the construction of an experimental setup that reproduces the configuration of JUNO’s environment. We show through positioning consistency and accuracy measurements that the ultrasonic localization system has a high localization accuracy and can perform effective localization in an alkylbenzene solution with 98% purity.
