Sound quality (SQ) has become an important index to measure the competitiveness of motor products. To better evaluate and optimize SQ, a novelty SQ evaluation and prediction model of high-speed permanent magnet motor (HSPMM) with better accuracy is presented in this research. Six psychoacoustic parameters of A-weighted sound pressure level (ASPL), loudness, sharpness, roughness, fluctuation strength (FS), and perferred-frequency speech interference (PSIL) were adopted to objectively evaluate the SQ of HSPMM under multiple operating conditions and subjective evaluation was also conducted by the combination of semantic subdivision method and grade scoring method. The evaluation results show that the SQ is poor, which will have a certain impact on human psychology and physiology. The correlation between the objective evaluation parameters and the subjective scores is analyzed by coupling the subjective and objective evaluation results. The average error of multiple linear regression (MLR) model is 7.10%. It has good accuracy, but poor stability. In order to improve prediction accuracy, a new predicted model of radial basis function (RBF) artificial neural network was put forward based on genetic algorithm (GA) optimization. Compared with MLR, its average error rate is reduced by 3.16% and the standard deviation is reduced by 1.841. In addition, the weight of each objective parameter was analyzed. The new predicted model has a better accuracy. It can evaluate and optimize the SQ exactly. The research methods and conclusions of this paper can be extended to the evaluation, prediction, and optimization of SQ of other motors.

Cage Induction Motor

There is a necessity to design a three-phase squirrel cage induction motor (SCIM) for high-speed applications with a larger air gap length in order to limit the distortion of air gap flux density, the thermal expansion of stator and rotor teeth, centrifugal forces, and the magnetic pull. To that effect, a larger air gap length lowers the power factor, efficiency, and torque density of a three-phase SCIM. This should inform motor design engineers to take special care during the design process of a three-phase SCIM by selecting an air gap length that will provide optimal performance. This paper presents an approach that would assist with the selection of an optimal air gap length (OAL) and optimal capacitive auxiliary stator winding (OCASW) configuration for a high torque per ampere (TPA) three-phase SCIM. A genetic algorithm (GA) assisted by finite element analysis (FEA) is used in the design process to determine the OAL and OCASW required to obtain a high torque per ampere without compromising the merit of achieving an excellent power factor and high efficiency for a three-phase SCIM. The performance of the optimized three-phase SCIM is compared to unoptimized machines. The results obtained from FEA are validated through experimental measurements. Owing to the penalty functions related to the value of objective and constraint functions introduced in the genetic algorithm model, both the FEA and experimental results provide evidence that an enhanced torque per ampere three-phase SCIM can be realized for a large OAL and OCASW with high efficiency and an excellent power factor in different working conditions.

Based on the target detection of alignment template, the paper designs a lane alignment template by using correlation matching method, and combines with genetic algorithm for template stochastic matching and optimization to realize the lane detection. In order to solve the real-time problem of lane detection algorithm based on genetic algorithm, this paper uses the high performance multi-core DSP chip TMS320C6474 as the core, combines with high-speed data transmission technology of Rapid10, realizes the hardware parallel processing of the lane detection algorithm. By Rapid10 bus, the data transmission speed between the DSP and the DSP can reach 3.125Gbps, it basically realizes transmission without delay, and thereby solves the high speed transmission of the large data quantity between processor. The experimental results show that, no matter the calculated lane line, or the running time is better than the single DSP and PC at the parallel C6474 platform. In addition, the road detection is accurate and reliable, and it has good robustness.

Event Camera

We compare event-cameras with fast (global shutter) frame-cameras experimentally, asking: “What is the application domain, in which an event-camera surpasses a fast frame-camera?” Surprisingly, finding the answer has been difficult. Our methodology was to test event- and frame-cameras on generic computer vision tasks where event-camera advantages should manifest. We used two methods: (1) a controlled, cheap, and easily reproducible experiment (observing a marker on a rotating disk at varying speeds); (2) selecting one challenging practical ballistic experiment (observing a flying bullet having a ground truth provided by an ultra-high-speed expensive frame-camera). The experimental results include sampling/detection rates and position estimation errors as functions of illuminance and motion speed; and the minimum pixel latency of two commercial state-of-the-art event-cameras (ATIS, DVS240). Event-cameras respond more slowly to positive than to negative large and sudden contrast changes. They outperformed a frame-camera in bandwidth efficiency in all our experiments. Both camera types provide comparable position estimation accuracy. The better event-camera was limited by pixel latency when tracking small objects, resulting in motion blur effects. Sensor bandwidth limited the event-camera in object recognition. However, future generations of event-cameras might alleviate bandwidth limitations.

Track Irregularity

Track irregularity is the main excitation source of wheel-track interaction. Due to the difference of speed, axle load and suspension parameters between track inspection train and the operating trains, the data acquired from the inspection car cannot completely reflect the real status of track irregularity when the operating trains go through the rail. In this paper, an estimation method of track irregularity is proposed using genetic algorithm and Unscented Kalman Filtering. Firstly, a vehicle-track vertical coupling model is established, in which the high-speed vehicle is assumed as a rigid body with two layers of spring and damping system and the track is viewed as an elastic system with three layers. Then, the static track irregularity is estimated by genetic algorithm using the vibration data of vehicle and dynamic track irregularity which are acquired from the inspection car. And the dynamic responses of vehicle and track can be solved if the static track irregularity is known. So combining with vehicle track coupling model of different operating train, the potential dynamic track irregularity is solved by simulation, which the operating train could goes through. To get a better estimation result, Unscented Kalman Filtering (UKF) algorithm is employed to optimize the dynamic responses of rail using measurement data of vehicle vibration. The simulation results show that the estimated static track irregularity and the vibration responses of vehicle track system can go well with the true value. It can be realized to estimate the real rail status when different trains go through the rail by this method.
