Large volume metrology is a key enabler of autonomous precision manufacturing. For component positioning, the optical-based metrology technique of photogrammetry could be used more widely if its accuracy was improved. These positional measurements are subject to uncertainties which can be greater than manufacturing tolerances. One source of uncertainty is due to thermal gradients, which cause the refraction of the light rays in large-scale industrial environments. This paper uses light-based sensor data to reconstruct a heterogeneous spatial map of the refractive index in air. We use this reconstructed refractive index map to discount the refractive effects and thereby reduce the uncertainty of this positioning problem. This new inverse problem employs Voronoi tessellations to spatially parameterize the refractive index map, the Fast Marching Method to solve the forward problem of calculating the light rays through this medium, and a Bayesian approach in the inversion. Using simulated data, this methodology leads to positioning improvements of up to 37 .

Tall structures, during their service lifetime, face many scenarios and are often prone to damages. Generally, static or dynamic measurements from the entire structure are used while formulating the Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) techniques for damage diagnosis. In this paper, an output-only damage diagnostic technique using the decentralized concept (subdomain-based) for high-rise buildings, employing the Vector form of the Autoregressive with exogenous input (VARX) model is developed. Vector version of the ARX model is preferred, as the vector models are more effective in detecting/localising the damage, when compared to the scalar models, due to their capability to predict the signals from a group of sensors per trial. In this work, the dynamic equation of motion associated with a building model is recast into the form of the VARX model, aiding to the decentralised damage diagnostic algorithm. New damage indices have been proposed to handle the inevitable confounding factors like environmental and operational variabilities (EoV), apart from measurement noise, to avoid false-positive alarms. The effectiveness of the proposed subdomain based damage diagnostic technique and its robustness to environmental/operational variabilities and measurement noise, are illustrated using the synthetic time-history responses of a 25-storey framed structure and the responses from a ten-storey experimental steel framed structure.

In structural health monitoring, the localization of impact is one of the most basic and challenging problems. However, existing technologies are only suitable for obtaining the impact position of plate structures, which hinder their engineering applications. Here, we propose a new method to study the impact position of complex box structures. The proposed method is based on modal parameters and k-means clustering. The modal parameters under different excitation are extracted by applying repeated impact to different positions of the structure, and then the modal constants are clustered to form the cluster centrrs. When the impact occurs at a certain location, the extracted modal constants can be compared with the clustering centres to determine the impact location. The effectiveness of this method is verified by the impact experiment of the gearbox.

The aim of this paper is to retrieve the temperature-dependent refractive index distribution in parallel-plane semi-transparent media with combined conduction-radiation heat transfer, by the measurement of exit intensities over the boundaries. The finite volume method in combination with the discrete ordinates method is used to solve the energy equation. The results of the direct solution for both linear-spatially and linear-temperature-dependent refractive index distributions are compared and the effects of the main parameters are examined. The results confirm a remarkable difference between the results for spatially and temperature-dependent refractive index profiles. Finally, the refractive index profile is estimated using the conjugate gradient method in an inverse manner. The coefficients of the linear profile are estimated for three cases with different levels of measurement errors; 1%, 3% and 5%. The results show that the temperature-dependent refractive index distribution can be retrieved in a good range of errors for noisy data.

The nonlinear model has been developed and implemented to describe gas emission from coal slack placed in a sealed container (‘canister test’). The model accounts for initial gas content S, coefficients of diffusion D, mass transfer β and desorption kinetics γ, as well as for fractional composition of the sample. Using the developed analytical method of the initial boundary value problem solution, it is found that the pressure of gas in the container tends to a constant value with time. The inverse problem of determining the kinetic parameters S, D, β and γ of gas by the pressure readouts in the experiments has been formulated and subjected to solvability tests. The introduced objective function (discrepancy between and the calculated pressure) is almost independent of β. Based on the modification of the conjugate gradient method, the inverse problem algorithm is proposed. Using the data of in situ measurements of pressure in three containers, the authors perform quantification of gas content, as well as diffusion and desorption kinetics coefficients in terms of a coal bed in Berezovskaya Mine (Kuznetsk Coal Basin). The range of the mass transfer coefficient is estimated by the results of the grain-size analysis of the test samples.

Lightning location is a significant issue in the protection of transmission lines, renewable energy sources, and electrical equipment. In this article, a new technique for the determination of lightning striking points is been proposed. This method is depending on measured values of lightning-induced voltage obtained from distribution power lines in the vicinity of the lightning channel. The proposed method considers lightning location as well as lightning current wave shape at the channel base. It was validated using a number of measured return stroke currents, and the outcomes are debated accordingly. All electromagnetic field components were taken into consideration in the proposed method, and lightning current wave shape was determined in contrast with the other, widely used methods. Evaluated lightning current wave shapes, based on local measured data, can be used to examine and improve existing protection schemes in renewable energy generation farms, transmission lines, and other power sites. Moreover, lightning maps and ground flash density can be obtained from the evaluated lighting location data to be used in lightning risk assessment studies.

In this work, we prove the possibility of actively controlling the acoustic field in an ocean consisting of two homogeneous layers of constant depth using a surface source embedded in one of the layers. For a class of prescribed fields on some bounded control regions in either layer, we show the existence of a boundary input on the source, either acoustic pressure or normal velocity so that the propagated field approximates the prescribed fields. Also, we provide a constructive scheme to find the required boundary input using a Morozov discrepancy principle-based Tikhonov regularization scheme. Several numerical simulations are also provided to support our analyses.

The change of electrodes’ conductivity is a crucial parameter during battery aging process, non-contact detection of battery electrodes’ defects through conductivity reconstruction is an innovative technology. In this paper, the magnetic induction tomography (MIT) was applied to reconstruct the conductivity of electrodes, the simplified battery models with complete and broken electrodes were chosen as target A and target Brespectively, and an eight-channel MIT system was designed to measure the change of mutual induced voltage. A method of computing the forward problem called ‘A·E’ was adopted to compute the coefficient matrix for the forward problem and the frequency 12.665kHz was chosen as the excitation frequency. Based on the conductivity reconstruction images, relative errors of reconstructed conductivity and objective function, ‘A·E’ method exhibited advantages in terms of computation time and accuracy compared to coefficient sensitivity method with the simulation data. In order to test the accuracy of ‘A·E’ method, data measured by MIT system was applied in the inverse problem with four regularization parameter selection methods. L-curve criterion and generalized cross-validation criterion identified defects successfully as they were more sensitive to the change of conductivity.

Study of vehicle dynamics aggregates possibilities to enhance performance, safety and reliability, such as the integration of control systems, usually requiring knowledge on vehicle's states and parameters. However, some critical values are difficult to measure or are not disclosed. For this reason, dynamics and stability analysis of six-wheeled vehicles are compromised, and available information on this matter is limited. In this context, this paper proposes the estimation of the cornering stiffness of a 6x6 vehicle by an inverse problem approach applying the Levenberg–Marquardt (LM) method. The algorithm required data from field experiments and from simulations of a vehicle model during a double-lane change manoeuvre developed using . Experimental and theoretical values for the vehicle yaw rate were combined through LM method for cornering stiffness estimation. The excellent agreement between measured and simulated yaw rate indicates that the proposed model and the estimated parameters properly represent the vehicle dynamics response.
