AbstractThe prime focus of this work is to estimate stability and control derivatives of an airship in a completely nonlinear environment. A complete six degrees of freedom airship model has its aerodynamic model as nonlinear functions of angle of attack. Estimating the parameters of aerodynamic model in a nonlinear environment is challenging as it demands an exhaustive dataset that could cover the entire regime of operation of airship. In this work, data generation is achieved by simulating the mathematical model of airship for different trim conditions obtained from continuation analysis. The mathematical model is simulated using predicted parameter values obtained using DATCOM methodology. A modular neural network is then trained using back-propagation and Adam optimisation algorithm for each of the aerodynamic coefficients separately. The estimated nonlinear airship parameters are found to be consistent with the DATCOM parameter values which were used for open-loop simulation. This validates the proposed methodology and could be extended to estimate airship parameters from real flight data.

Precision improvement in sheet metal stamping has been the concern that the stamping researchers have engaged in. In order to improve the forming precision of sheet metal in stamping, this paper devoted to establish the generalized holo-factors mathematical model of dimension-error and shape-error for sheet metal in stamping based on BP neural network. Factors influencing the forming precision of stamping sheet metal were divided, altogether ten factors, and the generalized holo-factors mathematical model of dimension-error and shape-error for sheet metal in stamping was established using the back-propagation algorithm of error based on BP neural network. The undetermined coefficients of the model previously established were soluble according to the simulation data of sheet punching combined with the specific shape based on the BP neural network. With this mathematical model, the forecast data compared with the validate data could be obtained, so as to verify the fine practicability that the previously established mathematical model had, and then, it was shown that the generalized holo-factors mathematical model of size error and shape-error had fine practicality and versatility. Based on the generalized holo-factors mathematical model of error exemplified by the cylindrical parts, a group of process parameters could be selected, in which forming thickness was between 0.713 mm and 1.335 mm, major strain was between 0.085 and 0.519, and minor strain was between −0.596 and 0.319 from the generalized holo-factors mathematical model prediction, at the same time, the forming thickness, the major strain, and the minor strain were in good condition.

Accurate estimation of sideslip angle is essential for vehicle stability control. For commercial vehicles, the estimation of sideslip angle is challenging due to severe load transfer and tire nonlinearity. This paper presents a robust sideslip angle observer of commercial vehicles based on identification of tire cornering stiffness. Since tire cornering stiffness of commercial vehicles is greatly affected by tire force and road adhesion coefficient, it cannot be treated as a constant. To estimate the cornering stiffness in real time, the neural network model constructed by Levenberg-Marquardt backpropagation (LMBP) algorithm is employed. LMBP is a fast convergent supervised learning algorithm, which combines the steepest descent method and gauss-newton method, and is widely used in system parameter estimation. LMBP does not rely on the mathematical model of the actual system when building the neural network. Therefore, when the mathematical model is difficult to establish, LMBP can play a very good role. Considering the complexity of tire modeling, this study adopted LMBP algorithm to estimate tire cornering stiffness, which have simplified the tire model and improved the estimation accuracy. Combined with neural network, A time-varying Kalman filter (TVKF) is designed to observe the sideslip angle of commercial vehicles. To validate the feasibility of the proposed estimation algorithm, multiple driving maneuvers under different road surface friction have been carried out. The test results show that the proposed method has better accuracy than the existing algorithm, and it’s robust over a wide range of driving conditions.

Abstract The dynamic model and motion simulation for a Triangular-Shaped Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (TAUV) with independently controlled rudders are described in this paper. The TAUV is designed for biofouling cleaning in aquaculture cage fishnet. It is buoyant underwater and moves by controlling two thrusters. Hence, in this research work, the authors designed a TAUV that is propelled by two thrusters and maneuvered by using an independently controllable rudder. This paper discussed the development of a mathematical model for the TAUV and its dynamic characteristics. The mathematical model was simulated by using Matlab and Simulink to analyze the TAUV’s motion based on open-loop control of different rudder angles. The position, linear and angular velocities, angle of attack, and underwater vehicle speed are all demonstrated in the findings.

We focused on vibration characteristics of reciprocating compressors and constructed the mathematical model to calculate the natural frequencies and modes for crank angles and proposed a method to estimate the degree and the suspicious portion of failure by difference of temporal parameter values obtained using measuring data in operation and the mathematical model. In this paper, according to the proposed method, a case study is carried out using the field data, where the data were acquired before and after the failures occurred in the connecting parts of connecting rod, to prospect the difference between each parameter value for two operating states. Inspecting resonant characteristics each in the frequency response data relating to the natural frequencies for bending modes of the piston rod, we determined two resonant frequencies, which could correspond to the 1st and 2nd mode about bending of the piston rod. To equate the calculated each natural frequency from eigen value analysis based on the proposed model with each resonant frequency, we define the error function for the identified problem, namely optimum problem. In the identified results, it is found that some parameter values have much difference and the corresponding failure could occur around the connecting rod. We could show the possibility to detect both the change of the parameter values and the deterioration parts for two different kinds of the operating states by our proposed method.

In many mechanical systems, the mathematical model can be characterized by m nonlinear equations in n unknowns. The m equations could be either equality constraints or active inequality constraints in a constrained optimization framework. In either case, the mathematical model consists of (n-m) degrees of freedom, and (n-m) unknowns must be specified before the system can be analyzed. In the past, designers have often fixed the set of (n-m) specification variables and computed the remaining n variables using the n equations. This paper presents constraint management algorithms that give the designer complete freedom in the choice of design specifications. An occurrence matrix is used to store relationships among design parameters and constraints, to identify dependencies among the variables, and to help prevent redundant specification. The interactive design of a torsion bar spring is used to illustrate constraint management concepts.

The subject of the research presented in the article is neural network modules (NNMs), which are used to solve problems in the practice of diagnosing diseases in urology. This work aims to develop a mathematical model for generating a multitude of uroflowmetric parameters, in particular, graphs of uroflowrograms of the required volume, used as input data for NNM training. Objective: to develop a mathematical model for the formation of uroflowmetric parameters using a probabilistic approach based on a uniform "white noise". To develop an effective algorithm for the procedure for generating new parameter values and tools for its implementation. Methods used: NNM training methods, mathematical modeling methods, digital signal processing methods, tools for generating and processing random numerical sequences, digital data filtering methods. The following results were obtained: when creating and implementing a mathematical model for generating a large amount of training data, the requirements of randomness are taken into account when obtaining new values of uroflowmetric parameters. And at the same time, the obtained noise values are filtered to values of a given range, which are percentage-wise comparable to the amplitude value of the uroflowmetric parameter. Conclusions. The scientific novelty of the results is as follows: the NNM training method for recognizing diseases in urology has been improved by developing a mathematical model to generate uroflowmetric parameters for NNM training. The presented model allows you to create the necessary amount of data for training neural network modules in the course of experimental research on the recognition of diseases. The generation of uroflowmetric parameters is based on adding noise to the parameter values. This allows you to change the input data of the NNM training in a given range. This ensures the creation of the required input volume of the NNM training procedure. In the future, this contributes to the testing process of trained neural network modules with reliable information on the diagnosis of diseases in urology.
