Fault-Tolerant Control of Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Actuators Based on Takagi and Sugeno Fuzzy and Pseudo-Inverse Quadratic Programming under Constraints.

Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) play a significant role in ocean-related research fields as tools for human exploration and the development of marine resources. However, the uncertainty of the underwater environment and the complexity of underwater motion pose significant challenges to the fault-tolerant control of AUV actuators. This paper presents a fault-tolerant control strategy for AUV actuators based onTakagi and Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy logic and pseudo-inverse quadratic programming under control constraints, aimed at addressing potential actuator faults. Firstly, considering the steady-state performance and dynamic performance of the control system, a T-S fuzzy controller is designed. Next, based on the redundant configuration of the actuators, the propulsion system is normalized, and the fault-tolerant control of AUV actuators is achieved using the pseudo-inverse method under thrust allocation. When control is constrained, a quadratic programming approach is used to compensate for the input control quantity. Finally, the effectiveness of the fuzzy control and fault-tolerant control allocation methods studied in this paper is validated through mathematical simulation. The experimental results indicate that in various fault scenarios, the pseudo-inverse combined with a nonlinear quadratic programming algorithm can compensate for the missing control inputs due to control constraints, ensuring the normal thrust of AUV actuators and achieving the expected fault-tolerant effect.

Static and dynamic response of pyramidal lattice sandwich plate with composite face sheets reinforced by graphene platelets

For the pursuit of lightweight structures with excellent mechanical performance, sandwich structures with lightweight cores and strengthened face sheets have become popular in the advanced engineering fields in recent years. In this paper, the nonlinear static and dynamic responses of the sandwich plate constructed with the aluminum pyramidal lattice core and functionally graded graphene platelets reinforced composite (FG-GPLRC) face layers are analyzed. The partial differential equations of the pyramidal lattice sandwich plate considering the geometric nonlinearity are achieved based on the Reddy’s third order shear deformation theory (TSDT), which are solved by the combination of finite element model, Raphson’s method and Newmark numerical integration method. Four different types of the impact loads including the step loading, triangular loading, half-sine loading and exponential loading with the same peak value and duration time are investigated. The influences of the thickness-to-truss radium ratio and the angle of the truss core, as well as the weight fraction and distribution patterns of graphene platelets (GPLs) over the face sheets under different impact loads and different boundary conditions are analyzed. According to the numerical results, it is concluded that the sandwich plate with higher weight fraction of GPLs, lower thickness-to-truss radium ratio, and higher angle of the truss core can exhibit better performance in both static and dynamic loading conditions. The FG-X distribution of GPLs presents the best dynamic performance as compared to the other GPL distributions. The combination of lightweight truss core with the advanced GPLRC face sheets is instructive for potential applications and further research.

Discrete-Time Adaptive Control for Three-Phase PWM Rectifier.

This paper proposes a dual-loop discrete-time adaptive control (DDAC) method for three-phase PWM rectifiers, which considers inductance-parameter-mismatched and DC load disturbances. A discrete-time model of the three-phase PWM rectifier is established using the forward Euler discretization method, and a dual-loop discrete-time feedback linearization control (DDFLC) is given. Based on the DDFLC, the DDAC is designed. Firstly, an adaptive inductance disturbance observer (AIDO) based on the gradient descent method is proposed in the current control loop. The AIDO is used to estimate lump disturbances caused by mismatched inductance parameters and then compensate for these disturbances in the current controller, ensuring its strong robustness to inductance parameters. Secondly, a load parameter adaptive law (LPAL) based on the discrete-time Lyapunov theory is proposed for the voltage control loop. The LPAL estimates the DC load parameter in real time and subsequently adjusts it in the voltage controller, achieving DC load adaptability. Finally, simulation and experimental results show that the DDAC exhibits better steady and dynamic performances, less current harmonic content than the DDFLC and the dual-loop discrete-time PI control (DDPIC), and a stronger robustness to inductance parameters and DC load disturbances.

Fault-Tolerant Multiport Converter for Hybrid Distribution Systems: Configuration, Control Principles and Fault Analysis

Multiport converters (MCs) are widely adopted in many applications, from renewable energy sources and storage integration to automotive applications and distribution systems. They are used in order to interface different energy sources, storage devices and loads with one single, simple converter topology in contrast to the traditional approach, which can require different solutions made by two-port converters. MCs allow for a reduction in the number of components and cascaded conversion stages with respect to an equivalent system of two-port converters, resulting in reduced complexity, dimensions and costs, as well as in improved reliability and enhanced efficiency. Nevertheless, some aspects related to the design of MCs are still worth further discussion when MCs are applied to hybrid AC/DC distribution systems. First, most converters are developed for one specific application and are not modular in structure. Furthermore, many of the proposed solutions are not equally suitable for AC and DC applications and they can introduce significant issues in hybrid distribution systems, with earthing management being particularly critical. Even though most available solutions offer satisfying steady-state and dynamic performances, fault behavior is often not considered and the possibility of maintaining controllability during faults is overlooked. Building on these three aspects, in this paper, a new MC for hybrid distribution systems is presented. An innovative circuit topology integrating three-phase AC ports and three-wire DC ports and characterized by a unique connection between the AC neutral wire and the DC midpoint neutral wire is presented. Its control principles and properties during external faults are highlighted, and extensive numerical simulations support the presented discussion.

Corporate Governance Dynamics and Financial Performance: Analysis of Listed Commercial Banks in the Ghanaian Context"

This study aims to determine the effect of corporate governance on the financial performance of 14 listed commercial banks in Ghana. The research employs a panel data set from 2008 to 2020 to examine how board size, ownership structure, board independence, capital adequacy ratio, audit committee effectiveness, board gender diversity, and overall corporate governance score affect ROA and ROE for banks. These relationships are analyzed using Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression within the framework of panel data analysis. Results indicate that ROA is positively related to board size, board independence, audit committee, and Board gender diversity. Also, ROE is positively influenced by companies’ ownership structure, capital adequacy ratio, audit committee effectiveness, and overall corporate employment governance rating. However, there is a significant negative correlation between ROE and women’s representation or board gender diversity. Also, another key finding is that both Return on Assets (ROA) and Return on Equity (ROE) are significantly affected by debt and debt-to-equity ratios. This indicates that banks borrowing more have reduced profitability, underlining the need for a well-managed capital structure and no over-reliance on loans. This study contributes to the understanding of the relationship between corporate governance and performance in the banking sector of Ghana, emphasizing that high-quality governance systems can improve and enhance financial performance. The insight gained from this analysis shows that Banks should aim towards good corporate governance practices such as; maintaining proper board size, promoting greater board independence, ensuring efficient audit procedures, and encouraging more gender diversity to enhance profitability. The outcomes also emphasized a well-built base of capital and concentrated ownership, enabling better financial results.The outcomes of this research are useful to Ghanaian policymakers, regulators, and bank executives who view the need for strong corporate governance environments to buttress the stability and growth of the banking sector.

Experimental study and multi‐scale refinement model of high damping acrylic polymer matrix VEDs for civil structural seismic retrofit

AbstractThe viscoelastic dampers (VEDs), which can provide both stiffness and damping, have been recently introduced into the field of structural vibration control for seismic enhancement of civil engineering structures. In this study, a kind of high damping acrylic polymer matrix VEDs (HDPVED) is developed independently, and this innovative HDPVED can solve the significant problem of service performance under medium‐high temperature environments, as well as low‐frequency vibration control under earthquake actions for civil engineering structures. To systematically investigate the influencing rules of frequency, temperature, and displacement amplitude on the mechanical properties and damping dissipation performance of HDPVEDs, a series of dynamic mechanical performance tests of the developed HDPVEDs are carried out at different frequencies, temperatures, and displacement amplitudes. The research results show that HDPVED exhibits excellent damping dissipation capability and adaptability under medium‐high temperature environments and low‐frequency excitations. The mechanical properties and energy dissipation performance present a strong correlation with frequency, temperature and displacement amplitude, and there is an obvious coupling effect between the three influencing factors. Based on the macroscopic mechanical property research of HDPVED, the microscopic damping mechanism and microscopic mechanical properties of HDPVED are then investigated. High‐order fractional derivative fraction Voigt and Maxwell model in parallel (FVMP) models are preferred to characterize the combined hyper‐elasticity and viscoelasticity owned by networked molecular chains and free molecular chains. The breaking and reconstruction theory of microphysical bonds is used to assess the effect of packing particles, and the time‐temperature equivalence principle is introduced to assess the effect of temperature. The multi‐scale refinement model is proposed, and the validity and accuracy of this model are verified by testing data of HDPVED. The study results show that the proposed model can accurately describe the effects of frequency, temperature, displacement amplitude, and microstructure on the multi‐scale mechanical properties of HDPVED. It provides a theoretical basis for the multi‐scale design and development of high damping VEDs.

Hunting stability control of high-speed bogie based on active yaw damper

Hunting stability is an inherent property of railway vehicles that determines the operational speed. This paper establishes a half-vehicle model with nonlinear wheel/rail equivalent conicity and interactive forces. Additionally, the dynamic performances of vehicle under various levels of wheel wear with passive suspension are compared and analyzed. Importantly, the investigation delves into the hunting stability of the vehicle system, employing both linear and nonlinear control approaches. The results demonstrate a notable reduction in critical speed during the end-worn period with a passive suspension. However, this reduction can be substantially countered through the application of active control, resulting in a significant speed increase. The implementation of stiffness control raises the frequency of limit cycles, whereas damping control serves to diminish it. Notably, an appropriate linear cubic stiffness control effectively mitigates the amplitudes of limit cycles during instances of instability. Moreover, the control strategy derived from the simplified model is extended to enhance the stability of the entire vehicle system. The research findings hold the potential to offer a promising strategy for the active control of high-speed vehicles, particularly during periods of wheel wear.

Shaking Table Tests and Numerical Analysis Conducted on an Aluminum Alloy Single-Layer Spherical Reticulated Shell with Fully Welded Connections

Aluminum alloy offers the advantages of being lightweight, high in strength, corrosion-resistant, and easy to process. It has a promising application prospect in large-span space structures, with its primary application form being single-layer reticulated shells. In this study, shaking table tests were conducted on a 1/25 scale aluminum alloy single-layer spherical reticulated shell structure. A finite element (FE) model of the reticulated shell structure was established in Ansys. Compared with the experimental results, the deviation in natural frequency, acceleration amplitude, and displacement amplitude was less than 20%, confirming the validity of the model. An extensive analysis of the various rise–span ratios and connection constraints of a single-layer spherical reticulated shell structure was carried out using the proposed FE model. The experimental and simulation results showed that as the rise–span ratio of the aluminum alloy reticulated shell increases, the natural frequency of the reticulated shell structure also increases while the dynamic performance decreases. The connection of the circumferential members changes from a rigid connection to a hinged connection. The natural frequency of the reticulated shell structure is reduced by about 40% while the acceleration and displacement response values are decreased by approximately 15%.

Macroscale Superlubricity with High Pressure Enabled by Partially Oxidized Violet Phosphorus for Engineering Steel

AbstractAs a novel cross‐structured 2D material, violet phosphorus (VP) promises to further develop the dynamic performance, energy efficiency, and service lifetime of mechanical components owing to its high strength and toughness, large carrier mobility, wide bandgap, and good friction‐reducing properties. In this work, the partially oxidized violet phosphorus nanosheets (oVP) are synthesized and employed as the lubricating additives in the poly alpha olefin (PAO) oil environment with less oleic acid (OA) improver, which can trigger the macroscale superlubricity on the diamond‐like carbon (DLC) film deposited steel surface at high loading pressures (>800 MPa) and sliding speeds (>0.1 m s−1). The friction coefficient (COF) of the steel‐DLC tribopair lubricated by the oVP‐PAO oil can reduce down to 0.0064 with little wear. At the high‐pressure sliding interface, the force‐thermal coupling action during the running‐in process promotes the cleavage and recombination of oVP nanosheets and OA molecules to form a reliable chemical adsorption tribofilm mainly composed of phosphorus oxides and amorphous carbon, which prevents the original asperities from direct contact and provides an ultralow shear strength. These findings suggest a new method to achieve macroscale oil‐based high‐pressure superlubricity for engineering steel through the lubrication and catalyzation effects of oVP.

Thermal performance and optimization of an integrated collector–storage solar air heater based on lap joint-type flat micro-heat pipe arrays

This study seeks to optimize the performance of an integrated collector–storage solar air heater (ICSSAH) based on lap joint-type (LJT) flat micro-heat pipe arrays (FMHPAs) and latent thermal storage through numerical simulation. A novel dynamic heat transfer model is developed by incorporating the heat transfer correlation describing the thermal characteristics of phase change material (PCM) in narrow and elongated confined spaces within plate fins and validated using experimental data to address the issue of deviation caused by the fixed thermal resistance of the PCM in conventional numerical simulation methods. The validated model is used to simulate and predict the dynamic performance of LJT-FMHPA-ICSSAH under different heat transfer structures. Several optimization parameters, including the air gap thickness, the optical properties of the collector and glass cover plates, and fins structure, are considered. Simulation results indicate that the heat lost to the external environment through the glass cover plate accounted for over 70 % of the total heat dissipation. The optimal combination included a 50 mm gas layer; copper-based blue titanium coating; ultra-white glass; and fin spacing, thickness, height, and length of 5, 0.2, 60, and 195 mm, respectively. Under autumn/winter operating conditions, the optimized thermal performance is 1.13–1.35 times higher than the performance prior to optimization.

Origami-inspire quasi-zero stiffness structure for flexible low-frequency vibration isolation

As an emerging technology, origami exhibits rich nonlinear static and dynamic properties. However, simulating creases remains a key challenge hindering practice application, especially for volumetric (deformable) origami. Inspired by the bistable behavior and axial-rotational coupling mechanism of triangulated cylindrical origami (TCO), this paper proposes a novel combined truss-spring structure with additional inertial mechanism (TCTS-RIM) for low-frequency vibration isolation. Unlike pure TCO, the TCTS-RIM uses elastic linkages to simulate all creases and modifies crease positions, enhancing physical realization in engineering applications and offering tunable stiffness and inertia on demand. Static analysis shows the modified truss-spring structure in TCTS-RIM has superior quasi-linear negative stiffness compared to pure TCO, which enables a very wide quasi-zero stiffness (QZS) range via linear spring compensation. The wide QZS range for different loads can be realized by setting appropriate structural parameters. From system dynamic equations, nonlinear inertia, nonlinear quadratic force, and nonlinear damping due to RIM are identified and discussed. The Alternating frequency–time harmonic balance method is used to obtain the displacement transmissibility, and its parametric influencing investigations verify that the proposed TCTS-RIM has excellent low-frequency vibration isolation performance and rich tunability. Comparative discussions show the wide QZS range significantly reduces the resonance frequency, broadens the isolation frequency band, and yields superior dynamic performance versus pure TCO isolators. Moreover, equivalent mass, anti-resonance and softening behavior induced by the rotational inertia mechanism further enhance low-frequency vibration isolation performance. An experimental prototype is built, and experimental results validate the correctness of the theoretical analyses. This work presents a simple mechanical implementation of volumetric origami, which may progress the engineering applications of origami and provide a viable approach to low-frequency vibration control.

Optimized virtual impedance solar restoration droop emulated SEPIC controller under low irradiation

This paper is focused on PV-based reduced order pade’s approximation SEPIC (single-ended primary inductor converter) virtual Impedance, restoration controller with parallel impedance emulation condition. However, the complexity of the higher-order SEPIC controller has been reduced and compared using Pade’s approximation with different reduction techniques. It covers the time response, oscillation, overshoot, dynamic performance, and controller stability. The computational time and need of the sensor are less, and better responses occur compared to the other reduction technique under the solar irradiance variation. However, in PV, the dynamic resistance is generalized by a nonlinear solar I–V (current–voltage) curve dependent on the operating point, such as irradiance, temperature, and its I–V curve. The nonlinearity effect affects the stability of the system. The SEPIC outer voltage and inner current controller with virtual impedance controller enhance the stability, and comparative response is demonstrated through the bode plot. A virtual impedance controller (VIC) cascaded with voltage restoration minimizes the voltage notching and oscillations under variation of inertia coefficients. The transient and dynamic performance of reduced order using a genetic algorithm controller has been used to demonstrate and discuss the PV-SEPIC system’s stability.

Fiber from elicited butternut pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata D. cv. Ariel) modulates the human intestinal microbiota dysbiosis

Elicited pumpkin was evaluated as a potential daily consumption product able to modulate the gut microbiota. An in vitro dynamic colonic fermentation performance with microbiota from obese volunteers was used. Prebiotic effects were observed after the pumpkin treatment. Bifidobacterium abundance was maintained during the treatment period whereas Lactobacillus increased in the transversal and descending colon. Conversely, Enterobacteriaceae and Clostridium groups were more stable, although scarce decreasing trends were observed for same species. Increments of Lactobacillus acidophilus and Limosilactobacillus fermentum (old Lactobacillus fermentum) were observed in the whole colonic tract after the treatment period. However, modulatory effects were mainly observed in the transversal and descending colon. Diverse bacteria species were increased, such as Akkermansia muciniphila, Bacteroides dorei, Cloacibacillus porcorum, Clostridium lactatifermentans, Ruminococcus albus, Ruminococcus lactaris, Coprococcus catus, Alistipes shahii or Bacteroides vulgatus. The prebiotic effect of the elicited pumpkin was provided by the fiber of the pumpkin, suggesting a release of pectin molecules in the transversal and distal colonic tract through low cellulosic fiber degradation, explaining the increases in the total propionic and butyric acid in these colonic sections. Also, a possible modulatory role of carotenoids from the sample was suggested since carotenes were found in the descending colon. Hence, the results of this research highlighted pumpkin as a natural product able to modulate the microbiota towards a healthier profile.

Numerical prediction for vertical dynamic anti-sinking performance of underwater vehicle

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of an underwater vehicle (UV) during self-propulsion and dynamic anti-sinking maneuvers are presented. A generic submarine, Joubert BB2, was selected as the test model, which was modified by the Maritime Research Institute, Netherlands (MARIN). Different recovery maneuvers for improving the anti-sinking ability were performed when the UV bow cabin was broken. The overset mesh method was used to simulate the deflection of the rudder and stern planes, and a body-force propeller represented by an actuator disk incorporating predetermined propulsion properties provided the thrust and torque for self-propulsion. Extra vector forces of inflow water forces and recovery buoyancy forces were proposed to simulate the flooding of a bow cabin and recover buoyancy by emptying the ballast. Numerical simulations were performed for 20 different combinations of vertical anti-sinking maneuvers, including stern control surfaces, increasing ship speed, and emptying the ballast water. The pitch angle and depth characteristics of UV self-propelled motion were analyzed based on the pre-set anti-sinking criterions. The results indicated stern control surfaces combined with accelerating could effectively maintain the UV's depth and pitch angle, and discharge ballast water could always make it surface quickly. We hope that this study will provide ideas for further research on anti-sinking abilities.

Performance-Constraint Fault Tolerant Control to Aircraft in Presence of Actuator Deviation

Accuracy of electro-mechanical actuator in aircraft is susceptible to variable operation conditions such as electromagnetic interference, changeable temperature or loss of maintenance, leading in turn to flight performance degradation. This paper proposed an unified control paradigm that aims to keep aircraft’s velocity in a safe boundary and shorten the system stabilizing time in presence of actuator deviation. The controller is derived following a practical finite-time-convergence (FTC) with extended dynamics, and an integrated state-constraint structure so as to restrict air vehicle’s attitude rate or translation velocity. It is proved that the system state converges to a sphere near the origin in a finite time, the state trajectory is always remain within the prescribed range, and all signals of the closed-loop system are uniformly ultimately bounded. Compared simulation with the quadratic Lyapunov-based FTC method and an asymptotic convergence controller are conducted on an unmanned helicopter prototype. Results show that the proposed controller enhances the dynamic and fault-tolerant performance of resisting actuator fluctuation.

Training for Recovery: Impact of Sprint Interval Training on Recovery Dynamics and Aerobic Performance in Kickboxing Athletes

Abstract Purpose Recovery within and between rounds is crucial to combat sports performance. We sought to determine whether sprint interval training (SIT) improves recovery dynamics and aerobic performance. Methods Eleven male kickboxing athletes (26 ± 5 years; body mass index 25 ± 3 kg/m2) were recruited. Participants were tested three times for VO2peak/time to exhaustion and critical power; baseline, 3 weeks control, 3 weeks of SIT (8 × 10 s lower body sprints followed by a maximum of 10 min recovery before completing 8 × 10 s upper body sprints). During SIT session 1 and 9 continuous gas analysis was performed. Results There was a significant reduction in recovery time between lower and upper body sprints with training (session 1: 441 ± 150 s; session 9: 268 ± 10 s; P < 0.01; d = 2.77) and change in oxygen off-kinetics amplitude (session1: 3.0 ± 0.7 L/min, session 9: 3.6 ± 1.0 L/min; P < 0.05; d = − 1.77), VO2 end (session 1: 0.59 ± 0.19 L/min, session 9: 0.81 ± 0.21 L/min; P < 0.05, d = − 0.90), time constant (session 1: 81 ± 21 s; session 9: 60 ± 11 s; P < 0.05; d = 1.03). Following training there was a significant improvement in critical power (P < 0.05; η2p = 0.72) time to exhaustion (P < 0.05; η2p = 0.30) but not VO2peak (P > 0.05). Conclusion SIT improves recovery time associated and aerobic performance associated with improved oxygen off-kinetics. Therefore, training needs to focus on improving oxygen off-kinetics to enhance combat performance.

Adaptive backstepping sliding mode compensation control for electro‐hydraulic load simulator with backlash links

AbstractWhen a mechanical backlash between the loading piston rod and the steering gear piston rod connection of the electro‐hydraulic load simulator (EHLS), it will lead to poor loading accuracy. To solve this problem, an adaptive backstepping sliding mode controller based on the backlash feedforward compensation and state observer is proposed. First, the mechanism of surplus force generation in the EHLS is analyzed, and a mathematical model containing position disturbance and backlash nonlinearity is established based on the analysis results. Second, a state observer is designed to estimate the system state and the parameter adaptive law is designed to estimate the system parameters. Third, the adaptive backstepping method is combined with the non‐singular terminal sliding mode control (NTSMC) strategy to deal with the position disturbance and parameter uncertainty and to enhance the system's dynamic performance. Finally, a backlash feed‐forward compensator is engineered to restrain the detrimental effects caused by the backlash nonlinearity, and the simulation experimental results show that the designed new method can realize the precise loading of the EHLS under different working conditions, and the surplus force is suppressed better at the same time.

A thrust vector control test system of large range solid rocket engine utilizing a four-point support piezoelectric dynamometer and a deflected flange structure

The accurate measurement of thrust vector is very important to improve the life and safety of aircraft engine. In order to meet the requirements of thrust vector test of a solid rocket engine and overcome the contradiction between large thrust (>50 kN) and high-frequency response (≫30 Hz)/high precision measurement (<3%), a thrust vector control test system utilizing a four-point support piezoelectric dynamometer (FSPD) and a deflected flange structure was proposed. The test system mainly consists of a four-point support piezoelectric dynamometer and some vector force simulation loading devices. The theoretical mechanical model and the thrust vector control test system was set up to study the performance of solid rocket engine. Firstly, the piezoelectric elements and four-point support piezoelectric dynamometer were calibrated by the three-direction force calibration loading device. Secondly, the rationality and feasibility of the thrust vector control test system were proved by the simulated loading experiment. The research results show that the static and dynamic performance of the test system meet the test requirements, and it has good linearity and repeatability, errors are less than 1.00 %, and interphase interference is less than 2.00 %. The measuring system proposed in this paper provides a new idea for the accurate measurement of vector force with large load and high-frequency response.
