The linear model of an aero engine is effective in a small range of the neighborhood of equilibrium points. According to this problem, the identification method for the parameter uncertain linear model of the aero engine was proposed. The identification problem is solved by calculating nonlinear programming. Considering the parameter uncertainty of the model is the critical point of this research during the optimization process. A parameter uncertain model of an aero engine can be obtained, which has large use range. This method is used for DGEN380 aero engine. The two parameters, VDD and VE, are defined for describing error range. Compared with experimental data, the uncertain model of DGEN 380 can simulate the real state of DGEN380 within 1% error range when ΔPLA<22%. Compared with another conventional method of identification (recursive least squares), the parameter uncertain model, established by the method of this research, has a broad application area through parameter uncertainty of the model.

The task of locating an arcing-fault on overhead line using sampled measurements obtained at a single line terminal could be classified as a practical nonlinear system identification problem. The practical reasons impose the requirement that the solution should be with maximum possible precision. Dynamic behavior of an arc in open air is influenced by the environmental conditions that are changing randomly, and therefore the useful practically application of parametric modeling is out of question. The requirement to identify only one parameter is yet another specific of this problem. The parameter we need is the one that linearly correlates the voltage samples with the current derivative samples (inductance). The correlation between the voltage samples and the current samples depends on the unpredictable arc dynamic behavior. Therefore this correlation is reconstructed using nonparametric regression. A partially linear model combines both, parametric and nonparametric parts in one model. The fit of this model is noniterative, and provides an efficient way to identify (pull out) a single linear correlation from the nonlinear time series.

Abstract The division of fuzzy space is very important in the identification of premise parameters and the Gaussian membership function is applied to the premise fuzzy set. However, the two parameters of Gaussian membership function, center and width, are not easy to be determined. In this paper, a novel T-S fuzzy model optimal identification method of optimizing two parameters of Gaussian function based on Fuzzy c-means (FCM) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is presented. Firstly, we use FCM algorithm to determine the Gaussian center for rough adjustment. Then, under the condition that the center of Gaussian function is fixed, the PSO algorithm is used to optimize another adjustable parameter, the width of the Gaussian membership function, to achieve fine tuning, so as to complete the identification of prerequisite parameters of fuzzy model. In addition, the recursive least squares (RLS) algorithm is used to identify the conclusion parameters. Finally, the effectiveness of this method for T-S fuzzy model identification is verified by simulation examples, and the higher identification accuracy can be obtained by using the novel identification method described compared with other identification methods.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to describe a parameter identification method based on multiobjective (MO) deterministic and non-deterministic optimization algorithms to compute the temperature distribution on transformer tank covers. Design/methodology/approach – The strategy for implementing the parameter identification process consists of three main steps. The first step is to define the most appropriate objective function and the identification problem is solved for the chosen parameters using single-objective (SO) optimization algorithms. Then sensitivity to measurement error of the computational model is assessed and finally it is included as an additional objective function, making the identification problem a MO one. Findings – Computations with identified/optimal parameters yield accurate results for a wide range of current values and different conductor arrangements. From the numerical solution of the temperature field, decisions on dimensions and materials can be taken to avoid overheating on transformer covers. Research limitations/implications – The accuracy of the model depends on its parameters, such as heat exchange coefficients and material properties, which are difficult to determine from formulae or from the literature. Thus the goal of the presented technique is to achieve the best possible agreement between measured and numerically calculated temperature values. Originality/value – Differing from previous works found in the literature, sensitivity to measurement error is considered in the parameter identification technique as an additional objective function. Thus, solutions less sensitive to measurement errors at the expenses of a degradation in accuracy are identified by means of MO optimization algorithms.

Supercavity can increase speed of underwater vehicles greatly. However, external interferences always lead to instability of vehicles. This paper focuses on robustness of supercavitating vehicles. Based on a 4-dimensional dynamic model, the existence of multistability is verified in supercavitating system through simulation, and the robustness of vehicles varying with parameters is analyzed by basins of attraction. Results of the research disclose that the supercavitating system has three stable states in some regions of parameters space, namely, stable, periodic, and chaotic states, while in other regions it has various multistability, such as coexistence of two types of stable equilibrium points, coexistence of a limit cycle with a chaotic attractor, and coexistence of 1-periodic cycle with 2-periodic cycle. Provided that cavitation number varies within a small range, with increase of the feedback control gain of fin deflection angle, size of basin of attraction becomes smaller and robustness of the system becomes weaker. In practical application, robustness of supercavitating vehicles can be improved by setting parameters of system or adjusting initial launching conditions.

The overground speed is a key component of running analysis. Today, most speed estimation wearable systems are based on GNSS technology. However, these devices can suffer from sparse communication with the satellites and have a high-power consumption. In this study, we propose three different approaches to estimate the overground speed in running based on foot-worn inertial sensors and compare the results against a reference GNSS system. First, a method is proposed by direct strapdown integration of the foot acceleration. Second, a feature-based linear model and finally a personalized online-model based on the recursive least squares' method were devised. We also evaluated the performance differences between two sets of features; one automatically selected set (i.e., optimized) and a set of features based on the existing literature. The data set of this study was recorded in a real-world setting, with 33 healthy individuals running at low, preferred, and high speed. The direct estimation of the running speed achieved an inter-subject mean ± STD accuracy of 0.08 ± 0.1 m/s and a precision of 0.16 ± 0.04 m/s. In comparison, the best feature-based linear model achieved 0.00 ± 0.11 m/s accuracy and 0.11 ± 0.05 m/s precision, while the personalized model obtained a 0.00 ± 0.01 m/s accuracy and 0.09 ± 0.06 m/s precision. The results of this study suggest that (1) the direct estimation of the velocity of the foot are biased, and the error is affected by the overground velocity and the slope; (2) the main limitation of a general linear model is the relatively high inter-subject variance of the bias, which reflects the intrinsic differences in gait patterns among individuals; (3) this inter-subject variance can be nulled using a personalized model.

The generalized polynomial chaos (gPC) mathematical technique, when integrated with the extended Kalman filter (EKF) method, provides a parameter estimation and state tracking method. The truncation of the series expansions degrades the link between parameter convergence and parameter uncertainty which the filter uses to perform the estimations. An empirically derived correction for this problem is implemented, which maintains the original parameter distributions. A comparison is performed to illustrate the improvements of the proposed approach. The method is demonstrated for parameter estimation on a regression system, where it is compared to the recursive least squares (RLS) method.

This paper presents an identification method for robotic manipulators. It demonstrates how a dynamic model can be constructed with the help of the modified Newton–Euler formula. To model the friction of the joints, static friction modelling is used, in which the friction behaviour depends only on the actual velocity of the given joint. With these techniques, the model can be converted into a linear-in-parameters form, which can make the identification process easier. Two estimators are introduced to solve the identification problem, the least-squares and the weighted least-squares estimators, and the determination of the independently identifiable parameter vector to make the regression matrix maximal column rank is presented. The Frobenius norm is used as the condition of the regression matrix to optimise the excitation trajectories, and the form of the trajectories has been selected from the finite Fourier series. The method is tested in a simulated environment to achieve a three-degrees-of-freedom manipulator.
