This paper addresses the upset prediction problem of friction welded joints. Based on finite element simulations of inertia friction welding (IFW), a radial basis function (RBF) neural network was developed initially to predict the final upset for a number of welding parameters. The predicted joint upset by the RBF neural network was compared to validated finite element simulations, producing an error of less than 8.16% which is reasonable. Furthermore, the effects of initial rotational speed and axial pressure on the upset were investigated in relation to energy conversion with the RBF neural network. The developed RBF neural network was also applied to linear friction welding (LFW) and continuous drive friction welding (CDFW). The correlation coefficients of RBF prediction for LFW and CDFW were 0.963 and 0.998, respectively, which further suggest that an RBF neural network is an effective method for upset prediction of friction welded joints.

Smart growth is widely adopted by urban planners as an innovative approach, which can guide a city to develop into an environmentally friendly modern city. Therefore, determining the degree of smart growth is quite significant. In this paper, sustainable degree (SD) is proposed to evaluate the level of urban smart growth, which is established by principal component regression (PCR) and the radial basis function (RBF) neural network. In the case study of Yumen and Otago, the SD values of Yumen and Otago are 0.04482 and 0.04591, respectively, and both plans are moderately successful. Yumen should give more attention to environmental development while Otago should concentrate on economic development. In order to make a reliable future plan, a self-organizing map (SOM) is conducted to classify all indicators and the RBF neural network-trained indicators are separate under different classifications to output new plans. Finally, the reliability of the plan is confirmed by cellular automata (CA). Through simulation of the trend of urban development, it is found that the development speed of Yumen and Otago would increase slowly in the long term. This paper provides a powerful reference for cities pursuing smart growth.

To improve the tracking stability control of unmanned surface vehicles (USVs), an intelligent control algorithm was proposed on the basis of an optimized radial basis function (RBF) neural network. The design process was as follows. First, the adaptation value and mutation probability were modified to improve the traditional optimization algorithm. Then, the improved genetic algorithms (GA) were used to optimize the network parameters online to improve their approximation performance. Additionally, the RBF neural network was used to approximate the function uncertainties of the USV motion system to eliminate the chattering caused by the uninterrupted switching of the sliding surface. Finally, an intelligent control law was introduced based on the sliding mode control with the Lyapunov stability theory. The simulation tests showed that the intelligent control algorithm can effectively guarantee the control accuracy of USVs. In addition, a comparative study with the sliding mode control algorithm based on an RBF network and fuzzy neural network showed that, under the same conditions, the stabilization time of the intelligent control system was 33.33% faster, the average overshoot was reduced by 20%, the control input was smoother, and less chattering occurred compared to the previous two attempts.

The performance assessment of hydraulic servo systems has attracted an increasing amount of attention in recent years. However, only a few studies have focused on practical approaches in this field. A performance assessment method based on radial basis function (RBF) neural network and Mahalanobis distance (MD) is proposed in this study; the method is quantized by the performance confidence value (CV). An observer model based on RBF neural network is designed to calculate the residual error between the actual and estimated outputs. The root mean square (RMS), peak value, and average absolute value are then extracted as the features of residual error, which serve as the coordinates of the feature points. Lastly, the MD between the most recent feature point and the constructed Mahalanobis space is calculated. The condition of the system is assessed by normalizing MD into a CV. The proposed method is proven to be effective by a simulation model in which leakage faults are injected. Experimental results show that the proposed method can assess the performance of hydraulic servo systems effectively.

Concerning the prediction problems’accuracy of the state-of-charge(SOC) of the battery,this paper proposes a prediction method based on an improved genetic algorithm-radial basis function neural network for power battery charged state. The prediction method, based on intensity of information interaction and neural activity, adjusts the size of the neural network online and solves the problem that radial basis function neural network structure adjustment influences the accuracy of charged state prediction. The simulation results show that,compared with the method of radial basis function neural network based on genetic algorithm , the accuracy of charged state prediction is more stable and more precise.

To achieve the tracing control of a three-links spatial robot, a adaptive fuzzy sliding mode controller based on radial basis function neural network is proposed in this paper. The exponential sliding mode controller is divided into two parts: equivalent part and exponential corrective part. To realize the control without the model information of the system, a radial basis function neural network is designed to estimate the equivalent part. To diminish the chattering, a fuzzy controller is designed to adjust the corrective part according to sliding surface. The simulation studies have been carried out to show the tracking performance of a three-links spatial robot. Simulation results show the validity of the control scheme.
