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.

In order to solve the problem that how to evaluate the complex system support concept, an evaluation method based on Radial Basis Function (RBF) neural network model was presented. Through researching the support system overall design characteristics and elements of support, on this basis, evaluation parameters of support concept were abstracted. Support concept evaluation model based on RBF was established and a mature and stable RBF neural network was trained to calculate the comprehensive evaluation value for support concept. Finally, the further demonstration and verification of the method are given through specific case application and compared with the result for evaluation results of data envelopment analysis (DEA) model.

Aluminizing is a common protective coating for aeroengine turbine blades, but there is no method to accurately measure the aluminized thickness. X-ray fluorescence nondestructive testing technology is a method which can basically realize the measurement of all coatings on the metal substrate. However, the aluminized coating structure is completely different from the conventional coating structure, which causes great difficulties in measuring the aluminized thickness by conventional calculation models. Therefore, to realize the measurement of aluminized thickness, a new modeling method based on radial basis function (RBF) neural network by X-ray fluorescence (XRF) is proposed. By comparing two calculation models of RBF and principal component analysis (PCA)-RBF, the results show that both models can realize the measurement of aluminized thickness, but the accuracy of PCA-RBF is better than that of RBF, and the average relative error of the predicted results is 3.99%; the predicted results of the PCA-RBF model fit the training values better, and its predictability is better.

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.

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.
