Coordinated intelligent control strategy and power management for marine gas turbine under pulsed load using optimized neural network

Faced with the challenges of potentially irreversible damage due to instantaneous large pulsed power loads onboard, considering all-electric ship's small power grid capacity and complex gas turbine system, this study proposes a coordinated intelligent control strategy. It utilizes multi-objective optimization neural network to control a validated 20MW ship three-shaft gas turbine, ensuring global optimization tailored to pulsed load variations. Research findings reveal that the gas turbine efficiency at the design point is 32.3%, with a steady-state error within 2.8% and a maximum steady time error of 3.4 seconds, demonstrating acceptable accuracy. Under slope-type pulsed load of 20MW change in 5s, the proposed control strategy effectively manages speed while utilizing the energy storage system to smooth load inputs. It is worth noting that, increasing the fuel flow rate to 1.28 kg/s and inlet guide vane to 5.8 degrees reduces overshoot by 0.7% and rotor steady time by 15.4 seconds. Under transient-type pulsed load of 10MW back and forth change in 5s, the coordinated inlet guide vane control strategy mitigates surge margin and exhaust temperature issues. Adjusting the fuel flow to 1.17 kg/s and inlet guide vane to 9.96 degrees enables the gas turbine to operate within safety boundaries, reducing rotor speed overshoot by 0.4% and steady time by 6.1 seconds. Importantly, the optimized control strategy without energy storage system provides faster and safer dynamic regulation and power transmission for ship acceleration processes under radar load. However, considering only the coordinated strategy of the fuel sub-control loop, it is advisable to avoid compressor surge and over-temperature protection for electromagnetic ejection load scenarios. The research results will lay a valuable technical foundation for the intelligent control and smooth power transfer of the all-electric ship gas turbine power system with pulse loads in the extreme missions of ships in the future.

Dyna-PINN: Physics-informed deep dyna-q reinforcement learning for intelligent control of building heating system in low-diversity training data regimes

This paper introduces Dyna-PINN, a novel physics-informed Deep Dyna-Q (DDQ) reinforcement learning (RL) approach, designed to address the data-intensive training requirements and model-agnostic nature of the conventional model-free RL methods. The DDQ approach blends model-based and model-free elements to enhance both learning and decision-making processes. By utilizing a physics-informed neural network (PINN) based model, our method enriches the learning process with physical information, enhancing the agent's planning capabilities and leading to faster learning compared to conventional model-free RL methods like Deep Q-Network (DQN) in scenarios with low-diversity training data availability. Our results demonstrate that Dyna-PINN has 50% greater sample efficiency than DQN and outperforms rule-based control in terms of thermal discomfort. Due to physics incorporation, the Dyna-PINN implements a more logical and interpretable control policy. It shows consistently good performance compared to all control variants across low-diversity data scenarios, i.e., 6 weeks of building data, and in higher-diversity data regimes, i.e., 6 months of building energy data, demonstrating the value of physics incorporation into the RL training. Additionally, we present two other DDQ-based techniques, RC-DDQ and NN-DDQ, exploring the synergy between neural networks and physical data in intelligent control designs for building energy systems. Rigorous controller testing is performed using the Building Optimization and Testing Framework (BOPTEST), a high-fidelity simulator that closely represents a real building's operation. Through comprehensive comparisons and realistic simulations, our study underscores the effectiveness of incorporating physics-informed approaches into RL-based control strategies, paving the way for more efficient and robust building energy management systems.

Solid–liquid separation state control system for shale shaker based on computer vision

Shale shakers are crucial in drilling operations, separating solid–liquid mixtures, protecting equipment, improving efficiency, and supporting environmental protection and resource recovery. Typically, the solid–liquid separation status on shaker screens is assessed through manual inspection and experiential judgment, with the screen tilt angle adjusted manually. This method has inherent delays, failing to promptly detect and address screen surface abnormalities. To overcome this, a computer vision-driven intelligent control system has been proposed, enhancing drilling sieving operations’ efficiency. The system uses computer vision and servo motors to monitor and adjust the sieving state. Twin industrial cameras capture images, which undergo preprocessing like perspective correction, grayscale conversion, noise reduction, and illumination equalization. Local threshold segmentation and morphological analysis distinguish between liquid and solid states. The segmented images’ contours and area analysis precisely determine the separation state. Results are transmitted to motors via an industrial computer to adjust the sieve net angle. Servo motors on both sides manipulate the sliding block lifting mechanism for precise tilt adjustment. Experiments demonstrate that the method achieves an average accuracy of 93.635% in identifying mud edges. The system’s high efficiency and reliability ensure accurate identification and adjustment of the solid–liquid separation state, thereby optimizing drilling sieving workflows.

Research on “Playing Football” Type Roof Control in Fully-Mechanized Mining Face with a Super-Large Mining Height under the Background of 5G+ Big Data

With the increase of mining height at the working face, the influence range of roof fractures in the goaf increases, the advanced supporting pressure on the coal wall increases, ground pressure becomes more intense, and roof support becomes more difficult. Based on the analysis of ground pressure behavior in the first mining and caving stage, the normal mining stage, and the final mining breakthrough stage of the fully-mechanized mining face near 12,404, the relationship between conveyor current and coal speed is studied and compared. Based on the intelligent control system of the fully-mechanized mining face with a super-high mining height of 12,404 and the structure of the football team, the “playing football” roof control mode of the fully-mechanized mining face with super-high mining height under the background of 5G+ big data is put forward. The conclusions are as follows: In 12,404, the ground pressure was first mined. During normal mining, when the roof with a buried depth of more than 200 m is broken, the speed of the coal machine is kept within 12 m/min, and the full guard defends and controls the roof, pulling the lead frame through the area with severe ground pressure. When the roof is good, it is necessary to speed up the coal cutting and get rid of the pressure. When it is less than 200 m, it will overcome the local weighting, and show an offensive trend to speed up and increase production. In the final mining breakthrough stage, the speed of the coal machine should be controlled within 8 m/min, with attention to defense, guarding against roof leakage, and reducing waste rock.

Intelligent Rapid Asexual Propagation Technology—A Novel Aeroponics Propagation Approach

Various rapid propagation strategies have been discovered, which has facilitated large-scale plant reproduction and cultivar development. These methods, in many plant species, are used to rapidly generate large quantities (900 mini-tubers/m2) of high-quality propagule (free from contamination) at a relatively low cost in a small space. They are also used for plant preservation. This review article aims to provide potential applications for regeneration and clonal propagation. Plant propagation using advanced agrotechnology, such as aeroponics, is becoming increasingly popular among academics and industrialists. The advancement of asexual aeroponic propagation has been achieved through advancements in monitoring and control systems using IoT and smart sensor technology. New sensor technology systems have gained substantial interest in agriculture in recent years. It is used in agriculture to precisely arrange various operations and objectives while harnessing limited resources with minimal human intervention. Modern intelligent technologies and control systems simplify sensor data collection, making it more efficient than manual data collection, which can be slow and prone to errors. Specific ambient variables like temperature, humidity, light intensity, stock solution concentrations (nutrient water), EC (electrical conductivity), pH values, CO2 content, and atomization parameters (frequency and interval) are collected more effectively through these systems. The use of intelligent technologies provides complete control over the system. When combined with IoT, it aids in boosting crop quality and yield while also lowering production costs and providing data directly to tablets and smartphones in aeroponic propagation systems. It can potentially increase the system’s productivity and usefulness compared to the older manual monitoring and operating methods.

Fish feeding behavior quantification and automatic acoustic event detection: algorithmic optimization with deep learning

In recent years, the integration of sensor processing technologies with intelligent feeding control systems has become crucial for enhancing recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS). Intelligent feeding control significantly improves profitability and animal welfare in aquaculture by accurately monitoring feed intake and reducing waste. Acoustic methods have proven effective in automating feed monitoring, particularly in assessing feeding intensity. Automatic Audio Event Detection (AED) holds promise for identifying sound events associated with feeding activities, enabling precise monitoring of feeding behavior and estimation of feed consumption through frequency-based feeding signatures. Advancements in sensor technologies and computational capabilities enable real-time collection, processing, and analysis of acoustic data. However, handling high volumes of data with minimal latency and high accuracy poses challenges. To address these challenges, we propose a systematic approach: (1) Data preprocessing using wavelet transforms enhances efficiency and reduces computational overhead. (2) Data pruning focuses on informative features and reduces input data dimensionality, improving classification accuracy. (3) We adopt a weakly-labeled semi-supervised learning model with Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) to detect feeding events, improving classification performance. (4) Ensemble learning combines multiple classifiers to mitigate overfitting and enhance model generalization. Our methodology shows promise in accurately quantifying fish feeding behavior using acoustic signals.

Research on the Performance and Control Strategy of Electro-Hydraulic Servo System for Selective Hole Digging Tree Planter

Compared to agricultural environments, afforestation sites are more complex, often presenting issues such as undulating and uneven terrain. These conditions lead to instability in hole digging depth and plant spacing during continuous movement, and the hole shape may not meet expectations. Additionally, the hydraulic system exhibits slow response speed and long steady-state time, affecting the quality of sapling planting. To address these issues, this paper designs an intelligent planting control system for intermittent hole digging under continuous dynamic movement, based on a large tree planter. The focus is on studying the dynamic accuracy of the hole digging cylinder to resolve the instability of plant spacing and planting depth in actual planting processes. Firstly, a motion trajectory model of the intermittent hole digging mechanism is established to obtain the relationship between the displacement trajectory of the rotating cutter and the displacements of the floating cylinder and the hole digging cylinder. Secondly, a mathematical model of the electro-hydraulic servo system is established to control the dynamic accuracy of the hole digging operation. Finally, a Simulink simulation model of the system is established to analyze the performance indicators of the hydraulic system during operation using step and sinusoidal excitation signals. The test results show that the displacement of the hydraulic piston rod can ensure a linear extension trend within the range of 0 to 0.4 m, and the extension distance of the hole digging cylinder in the planting system is 0 to 0.35 m, ensuring linear change within this stroke. When the system’s extension command is 1 V, the actual output is 0.6 m, with a relative error of less than 10% compared to the simulation value, indicating that the control strategy can effectively improve the dynamic performance of the system. When the hydraulic system is in a steady-state extension state at 50 to 58.6 s, the relative error with the simulation value is 7.3%, meeting the “double ten indicators” requirement. The research results clearly verify the superior performance of the proposed intelligent control system, and the proposed control strategy has great potential in practical applications, promising to improve afforestation quality by stabilizing planting spacing and planting depth.
