DIC measurement method based on binocular stereo vision for image 3D displacement detection
The deformation detection of large machinery is usually achieved using three-dimensional displacement measurement. Binocular stereo vision measurement technology, as a commonly used digital image correlation method, has received widespread attention in the academic community. Binocular stereo vision achieves the goal of three-dimensional displacement measurement by simulating the working mode of the human eyes, but the measurement is easily affected by light refraction. Based on this, the study introduces particle swarm optimization algorithm for target displacement measurement on Canon imaging dataset, and introduces backpropagation neural network for mutation processing of particles in particle swarm algorithm to generate fusion algorithm. It combines the four coordinate systems of world, pixel, physics, and camera to establish connections. Taking into account environmental factors and lens errors, the camera parameters and deformation coefficients were revised by shooting a black and white checkerboard. Finally, the study first conducted error analysis on binocular stereo vision technology in three dimensions, and the relative error remained stable at 1 % within about 60 seconds. At the same time, three algorithms, including the spotted hyena algorithm, were introduced to conduct performance comparison experiments using particle swarm optimization and backpropagation network algorithms. The experiment shows that the three-dimensional error of the fusion algorithm gradually stabilizes within the range of [–0.5 %, 0.5 %] over time, while the two-dimensional error generally hovers around 0 value. Its performance is significantly superior to other algorithms, so the binocular stereo vision of this fusion algorithm can achieve good measurement results
Vehicle state and parameter estimation based on improved extend Kalman filter
In order to reduce the influence of historical measurement data errors in the process of vehicle state estimation and improve the accuracy of the vehicle state estimation, a limited memory random weighted extended Kalman filter (LMRWEKF) algorithm is proposed. Firstly, a 3-DOF nonlinear vehicle dynamics model is established. Secondly, the limited memory extended Kalman filter is formed by fusing the limited memory filter and the extended Kalman filter. Then, according to the random weighting theory, the weighting coefficients that obey Dirichlet distribution are introduced to further improve the filtering estimation accuracy. Finally, a virtual test based on the ADAMS/CAR is used for the experimental verification. The results show that the error in the longitudinal velocity and the yaw rate is small, especially in the mean value of estimation error of side slip angle which is different in just 0.015 degrees between the virtual test and the simulation result. And also, the results compared with traditional methods indicate that the proposed LMRWEKF algorithm can solve the problem of vehicle state estimation with the performance of noise fluctuation suppression and higher estimation accuracy. The mean absolute error (MAE) and root mean square error (RMSE) are considered to verify the estimation accuracy of the proposed algorithm. And the comparison results indicate that the estimation accuracy of the LMRWEKF algorithm is significantly higher than those of the EKF and DEKF methods

Aiming to gain an accurate prediction model of the vibro-acoustic problem for the vibrating structure systems, the uncertainty vibration analysis for the cylindrical shell structure considering construction factors is investigated. The generalized polynomial chaos (GPC) method is used to gain the analytical solution of the free vibration for the cylindrical shell structure, in which the construction uncertainty factors, comprising the material uncertainty parameter and construction geometric uncertainty parameter, are considered. By combining the collocation method and generalized polynomial chaos method, the influence of the uncertainty construction factor on the free vibration properties for the cylindrical shell structure is verified by a numerical analysis. The results provide technical support for the design and construction of the vibrating structure for vibration and noise reducing

On the effect of vibrational capture of rotation of an unbalanced rotor
The dynamics of an unbalanced rotor with a vibrating suspension axis and driven by an asynchronous electric motor of limited power is considered. Stationary (near stationary) modes of rotation of the rotor with a frequency equal to the vibration frequency of the axis are investigated. An explanation of the phenomenon of vibrational capture of rotation of an unbalanced rotor is given. The proposed mechanical interpretation of the effect allows deeper understanding of the classical results and conclusions. The obtained condition for the existence of a stationary mode allows us to estimate the frequency capture interval of the rotor. The case when the mode of vibration capture of rotation is not set is considered. For such a case, an expression for the vibrational moment is obtained, as well as an equation for slow motions. Attention is drawn to the possibility of occurrence in the considered modes of motion of slow (relative to the rotation frequency) rotor oscillations with sufficiently large amplitudes. It is demonstrated that the vibrational capture mode has the property of self-regulation; allows to stabilize the rotation frequency of an unbalanced rotor during load oscillations. Attention is drawn to the fact that in this mode of motion, there is certainly a transfer of energy either from the source of vibration to the rotor, or vice versa. The Sommerfeld effect in an oscillatory system with an inertial vibration exciter is represented by vibration capture of rotation of the vibration exciter by resonant oscillations of the carrier body. The theoretical results are confirmed by numerical modelling

In the study presented in this article, low-cost solutions for reducing throttling losses in hydraulic systems have been examined. In this context, two units using fixed displacement pumps were designed. The energy consumption of these hydraulic units during the working process has been measured and examined. In line with the measured values, both systems were compared in terms of energy efficiency. According to the results obtained, it has been observed that with the simple design changes that can be made in the hydraulic systems, there are 44.5 % throttling losses and 24.4 % energy efficiency in the total cycle time
Designing and controlling a self-balancing platform mechanism based on 3-RCC spherical parallel manipulator
Motion control platforms have various applications in the manufacturing and automation industries. Different literature provides multiple issues related to the kinematics and dynamics of self-guided robots for transportation regarding platform balancing. Self-balancing platforms are utilized in many deliveries, stabilization, and transportation systems, and they are especially well suited for outdoor activities when the ground surface is not flat or structured. This paper describes developing a control technique for a self-balancing platform using the 3-RCC spherical parallel manipulator. This mechanism was designed to support an AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) for transporting and lifting heavy weights for industrial applications. The AGV carries a robotic arm on top for different tasks. When the AGV encounters a steep slope or a rough surface, the AGV tilts, and the robotic arm’s performance is significantly affected. So, this study gives a solution to avoid these circumstances with a novel approach for the platform’s self-balancing mechanism consisting of a 3-RCC spherical parallel manipulator. Real-time stabilization and kinematics analysis methods are used to achieve the self-balancing system of the platform. When both methods are observed through different tilting angles for automation stability, Kinematic analysis performs more efficiently with less time duration when compared with the real-time stabilization method
Target detection algorithm based on super- resolution color remote sensing image reconstruction
An improved generative adversarial network model is adopted to improve the resolution of remote sensing images and the target detection algorithm for color remote sensing images. The main objective is to solve the problem of training super-resolution reconstruction algorithms and missing details in reconstructed images, aiming to achieve high-precision detection of medium and low-resolution color remote sensing targets. First, a lightweight image super-resolution reconstruction algorithm based on an improved generative adversarial network (GAN) is proposed. This algorithm combines the pixel attention mechanism and up-sampling method to restore image details. It further integrates edge-oriented convolution modules into traditional convolution to reduce model parameters and achieve better feature collection. Then, to further enhance the feature collection ability of the model, the YOLOv4 object detection algorithm is also improved. This is achieved by introducing the Focus structure into the backbone feature extraction network and integrating multi-layer separable convolutions to improve the feature extraction ability. The experimental results show that the improved target detection algorithm based on super resolution has a good detection effect on remote sensing image targets. It can effectively improve the detection accuracy of remote sensing images, and have a certain reference significance for the realization of small target detection in remote sensing images
