A navigation grade Strapdown Inertial Navigation System (SINS) combined with a Doppler Velocity Log (DVL) is widely used for autonomous navigation of underwater vehicles. Whether the DVL is able to provide continuous velocity measurements is of crucial importance to the integrated navigation precision. Considering that the DVL may fail during the missions, a novel neural network-based SINS/DVL integrated navigation approach is proposed. The nonlinear autoregressive exogenous (NARX) neural network, which is able to provide reliable predictions, is employed. While the DVL is available, the neural network is trained by the body frame velocity and its increment from the SINS and the DVL measurements. Once the DVL fails, the well trained network is able to forecast the velocity which can be used for the subsequent navigation. From the experimental results, it is clearly shown that the neural network is able to provide reliable velocity predictions for about 200 s–300 s during DVL malfunction and hence maintain the short-term accuracy of the integrated navigation.

The modelling of tendon behaviour during failure stages is nonlinear and heavily random. However, the understanding of its behavior during such stages, and development of models that can give an accurate prediction of its behavior during failure can provide a means for developing effective tendon therapies. This study is aimed at demonstrating the capability of an artificial neural network in the modelling of failure phases in tendons. A nonlinear autoregressive with exogenous inputs network is applied to three different tensile test data of the human supraspinatus tendons. Owing to data scarcity, the network was trained using two different test data which were randomly sampled and divided into 50%, 25% and 25% proportions for training, validation and preliminary testing. The third test data were used for the final testing phase. The procedure was cyclically performed for each of the results that have been presented in this study. The neural network predictions are presented as curves fitted over actual test results with corresponding error plots. The results indicate that the network is able to accurately predict the failure behaviour of these tendons with correlations of above 99 % for all tests. This is an excellent and very promising result in the light of the difficulties that most deterministic mechanistic models encounter in the modelling of soft tissue failure behaviour. With further development of this technique, sports and exercise physicians would enhance knowledge in mechanisms of tendon failure and be able to devise more injury preventive strategies.

Very-short-term photovoltaic power forecast, namely nowcasting, is gaining increasing attention to face grid stability issues and to optimize microgrid energy management systems in the presence of large penetration of renewable energy sources. In order to identify local phenomena as sharp ramps in photovoltaic production, whole sky images can be used effectively. The first step in the implementation of new and effective nowcasting algorithms is the identification of Sun positions. In this paper, three different techniques (solar angle-based, image processing-based, and neural network-based techniques) are proposed, described, and compared. These techniques are tested on real images obtained with a camera installed at SolarTechLab at Politecnico di Milano, Milan, Italy. Finally, the three techniques are compared by introducing some performance parameters aiming to evaluate of their reliability, accuracy, and computational effort. The neural network-based technique obtains the best performance: in fact, this method is able to identify accurately the Sun position and to estimate it when the Sun is covered by clouds.

The drainage system is used to guide the flow of water in the earth dams. Construction of drainage in the dam body to collect and direct the drainage formed in the dam body to keep the slope dry and prevent the increase of pore water pressure in the body. One of the main goals of the designers is to find the minimum factor of safety and, consequently, reduce the cost of construction. In this study, the Marvak dam is modeled with the actual characteristics of the materials in the Geostudio software, and with the change in the dimensions of the drain, the material and the slope of the dam body, the minimum Factor of safety of the dam is obtained. In order to predict the minimum Factor of safety, a two-layer neural network has been used. With the training of the neural network based on the data obtained from heterogeneous dams, a minimum Factor of safety has been extracted for optimization of drainage. Finally, it was determined that the internal friction angle of the body material and the slope of the dam have the greatest effect on the dam factor of safety.

Abstract. A new method using the Micro Rain Radar (MRR) to determine the melting layer height is presented. The MRR is a small vertically pointing frequency modulated continuous wave radar which measures Doppler spectra of precipitation. From these Doppler spectra, various variables such as Doppler velocity or spectral width can be derived. The melting layer is visible through a higher reflectivity and an acceleration of the falling particles, among others. These characteristics are fed to a neural network to determine the melting layer height. For the training of the neural network, the melting layer height is determined manually. The neural network is trained and tested using data from two sites covering all seasons. For most cases, it is well able to detect the correct melting layer height. Sensitivity studies show that the neural network is able to handle different settings of the MRR. Comparisons to radiosonde data and cloud radar data show a good agreement in melting layer heights.

The subject of the research is the methods of constructing and training neural networks as a nonlinear modeling apparatus for solving the problem of predicting the energy consumption of metallurgical enterprises. The purpose of this work is to develop a model for forecasting the consumption of the power system of a metallurgical enterprise and its experimental testing on the data available for research of PJSC "Dneprospetsstal". The following tasks have been solved: analysis of the time series of power consumption; building a model with the help of which data on electricity consumption for a historical period is processed; building the most accurate forecast of the actual amount of electricity for the day ahead; assessment of the forecast quality. Methods used: time series analysis, neural network modeling, short-term forecasting of energy consumption in the metallurgical industry. The results obtained: to develop a model for predicting the energy consumption of a metallurgical enterprise based on artificial neural networks, the MATLAB complex with the Neural Network Toolbox was chosen. When conducting experiments, based on the available statistical data of a metallurgical enterprise, a selection of architectures and algorithms for learning neural networks was carried out. The best results were shown by the feedforward and backpropagation network, architecture with nonlinear autoregressive and learning algorithms: Levenberg-Marquard nonlinear optimization, Bayesian Regularization method and conjugate gradient method. Another approach, deep learning, is also considered, namely the neural network with long short-term memory LSTM and the adam learning algorithm. Such a deep neural network allows you to process large amounts of input information in a short time and build dependencies with uninformative input information. The LSTM network turned out to be the most effective among the considered neural networks, for which the indicator of the maximum prediction error had the minimum value. Conclusions: analysis of forecasting results using the developed models showed that the chosen approach with experimentally selected architectures and learning algorithms meets the necessary requirements for forecast accuracy when developing a forecasting model based on artificial neural networks. The use of models will allow automating high-precision operational hourly forecasting of energy consumption in market conditions.

In order to solve the problem of road roughness identification, a study on the nonlinear autoregressive with exogenous inputs (NARX) neural network identification method was carried out in the paper. Firstly, a 7-DOF plane model of vehicle vibration system was established to obtain the vertical acceleration and elevation acceleration of the body, which were set as ideal input samples for the neural network. Then, based on the plane model, with common speed, the road roughness was solved as the ideal output sample of the NARX neural network, and the road roughness of B-level and C-level was identified. The results show that the proposed method has ideal identification accuracy and strong antinoise ability. The relative error of C-level road roughness is larger than that of B-level road roughness. The identified road roughness can provide a theoretical basis for analyzing the dynamic response of expressway roads.
