Establishing a prediction model, with linearity and few dof (degree of freedom), is a key step for the design of a control algorithm based on the modern control theory. In this paper, such a model is needed for active suppression of vehicle longitudinal low-frequency vibration. However, many dynamic processes in the vehicle have different effects on the vibration. Therefore, a detailed coupling model is firstly established, considering the dynamics of the torsional vibrations of the driveline and the tire, the tire force nonlinearity, and the vehicle vertical and pitch vibrations. Based on this model, sensitivity analysis is conducted and the results show that the tire slip, the torsional stiffness of the half-shaft, and the tire have great influences on the longitudinal vibration. Then a three-dof model is obtained by linearizing the tire slip into damping. A parameter estimation method is designed to obtain the model parameters. Finally, the model is validated. The time domain response, error analysis, and frequency response results demonstrate that the 3-dof model has a good consistency with the detailed coupling model. It is suitable as a control-oriented model.

A new method to control single-link lightweight flexible manipulators in the presence of changes in the load is proposed in this paper. The overall control scheme consists of three nested control loops. Once the friction and other nonlinear effects have been compensated, the inner loop is designed to give a fast motor response. The middle loop decouples the dynamics of the system, and reduces its transfer function to a double integrator. A fractional-derivative controller is used to shape the outer loop into the form of a fractional-order integrator. The result is a constant-phase system with, in the time domain, step responses exhibiting constant overshoot, independently of variations in the load. Continuous and discrete approximate implementations of the fractional controller are simulated. Comparison of the responses to a step command of the manipulator controlled with the proposed approximations and with the ideal fractional controller showed that the latter could be accurately approximated by standard continuous and discrete controllers of high order preserving the robustness. An interesting feature of this control scheme is that the overshoot is independent of the tip mass. This allows a constant safety zone to be delimited for any given placement task of the arm, independently of the load being carried, thereby making it easier to plan collision avoidance. Simulations also include comparison with standard PD controller, and verification of the assumption of dominant low-frequency vibration mode.

Based on the rigid-flexible coupling model, this article utilized ADAMS to establish a dynamics model of a motorcycle, in which the engine excitation and road excitation were determined. According to the ISO5349 and ISO2631 standards, the vibration of the motorcycle at 60 km/h was analyzed. The results showed that the high-frequency vibration of the engine accounted for the most vibration at the handle when driving on the B-class road at 60 km/h, and the vibration level was uncomfortable. In contrast, the low-frequency vibration of the road roughness was the main excitation of the cushion vibration, and the vibration level was relatively uncomfortable. These results were in accordance with the subjective impression on human observers, indicating that the vibration comfort analysis method based on the rigid-flexible coupling model was correct and effective to provide theoretical basis for the subsequent improvement and modification early in the design stage.

The following changes should be made to the paper, “Computer simulation of low‐frequency electromagnetic data acquisition” by W. A. San Filipo and G. W. Hohmann (Geophysics, September 1983, p. 1219–1232). The equation for the vertical magnetic induction in gammas over a conductive half‐space for a vertical time‐harmonic dipole (p. 1221) should be: [Formula: see text] The computed signals used in the examples are correct, as can be verified by the initial value (on‐time primary field) of the time‐domain response shown in Figure 15.

To improve seat performance of low-frequency vibration isolation, this paper investigates a new type of seat suspension with a hollow composite rubber spring. To better describe the real system, a nonlinear suspension model was built. Then, the model parameters were identified and validated, the results show that the model is workable and the identified parameters are acceptable. The acceleration transmissibility of the new suspension was also analyzed by test and simulation. The resonant frequencies measured are close to the simulated under different excitation amplitudes, and all the relative deviations of the resonant frequency are less than 2.0%. Finally, in order to make clear how much the new suspension is better than the traditional suspension with the coil spring, the comparison of ride comfort was conducted under different working conditions. The results show that the new suspension can more effectively attenuate the low frequency from the uneven ground, meanwhile, it can provide a more stable support so that the driver can control the vehicle effectively. The model proposed can be used to predict the performance of the new seat suspension. The new suspension and the model provide a valuable reference for broadening the type of the seat suspension and exploring the optimal performance.

The lateral line organs of the sea eel consist of canal and pit organs which are different in function. The former is a low frequency vibration detector whereas the latter functions as an ion receptor as well as a mechano receptor.The fine structure of the sensory epithelia of both organs were studied by means of ordinary transmission electron microscope, high voltage electron microscope and of surface scanning electron microscope.The sensory cells of the canal organ are polarized in front-caudal direction and those of the pit organ are polarized in dorso-ventral direction. The sensory epithelia of both organs have thinner surface coats compared to the surrounding ordinary epithelial cells, which have very thick fuzzy coatings on the apical surface.

The various parts of the traditional financial supervision and management system can no longer meet the current needs, and further improvement is urgently needed. In this paper, the low-frequency data is regarded as the missing of the high-frequency data, and the mixed frequency VAR model is adopted. In order to overcome the problems caused by too many parameters of the VAR model, this paper adopts the Bayesian estimation method based on the Minnesota prior to obtain the posterior distribution of each parameter of the VAR model. Moreover, this paper uses methods based on Kalman filtering and Kalman smoothing to obtain the posterior distribution of latent state variables. Then, according to the posterior distribution of the VAR model parameters and the posterior distribution of the latent state variables, this paper uses the Gibbs sampling method to obtain the mixed Bayes vector autoregressive model and the estimation of the state variables. Finally, this article studies the influence of Internet finance on monetary policy with examples. The research results show that the method proposed in this article has a certain effect.

Stack emissions from the industrial sector are a subject of concern for air quality. However, the characterization of the stack emission plume properties from in situ observations remains a challenging task. This paper focuses on the characterization of the aerosol properties of a steel plant stack plume through the use of hyperspectral (HS) airborne remote sensing imagery. We propose a new method, based on the combination of HS airborne acquisition and surface reflectance imagery derived from the Sentinel-2 Multi-Spectral Instrument (MSI). The proposed method detects the plume footprint and estimates the surface reflectance under the plume, the aerosol optical thickness (AOT), and the modal radius of the plume. Hyperspectral surface reflectances are estimated using the coupled non-negative matrix factorization (CNMF) method combining HS and MSI data. The CNMF reduces the error associated with estimating the surface reflectance below the plume, particularly for heterogeneous classes. The AOT and modal radius are retrieved using an optimal estimation method (OEM), based on the forward model and allowing for uncertainties in the observations and in the model parameters. The a priori state vector is provided by a sequential method using the root mean square error (RMSE) metric, which outperforms the previously used cluster tuned matched filter (CTMF). The OEM degrees of freedom are then analysed, in order to refine the mask plume and to enhance the quality of the retrieval. The retrieved mean radii of aerosol particles in the plume is 0.125 μμm, with an uncertainty of 0.05 μμm. These results are close to the ultra-fine mode (modal radius around 0.1 μμm) observed from in situ measurements within metallurgical plant plumes from previous studies. The retrieved AOT values vary between 0.07 (near the source point) and 0.01, with uncertainties of 0.005 for the darkest surfaces and above 0.010 for the brightest surfaces.
