Three accurate dynamic model of air spring was set up through aerodynamics, fluid mechanics, structural mechanics,engineering thermodynamics, etc. According to the new established bellow-orifice-reservoir model, bellow-pipe-reservoir model and bellow-orifice-pipe-reservoir model, the dynamic characteristics of air spring were calculated under different excitation amplitudes and frequencies. By comparison with experimental results, it shows that the simulation results of the three models and experimental results coincide very well in dynamic characteristics; the bellow-orifice-pipe-reservoir connection type is recommended as the secondary suspension for low frequency excitations; and the bellow-orifice-reservoir connection type is considered effectively for high frequency excitations; the bellow-pipe-reservoir connection type is not recommended to be used as the secondary suspension because of its negative stiffness.

Abstract In this paper, a new advanced topology of stacked multicell inverter is proposed which is generally suitable for high number of steps associated with a low number of switches. Compared with traditional flying capacitor multicell and stacked multicell (SM) inverters, doubling the number of output voltage levels and the RMS value, ameliorating the output voltage frequency spectrum, decreasing the number and rating of components, stored energy and rating of flying capacitors are available with the proposed inverter. These improvements are achieved by adding only four low-frequency switches to the traditional SM inverter’s structure. The suggested topology is simulated using MATLAB/SIMULINK software, and simulation results are presented to indicate well-performance of the novel converter. In addition, the experimental results of proposed topology prototype have been presented to validate its practicability.

Frame structure is widely used in practical projects. For jitter of the frame structure excited by median and high frequency disturbances, firstly, the dynamic model of thin plate substructure is built by wave method, and then the dynamic model of frame structure is established by combining wave method and substructure technique. At last, the accurate dynamic response was obtained. The simulation of dynamic characteristic is made, and simulation results are compared with FEM results. On this basis, modal experiment and frequency response experiment is done to verify theoretical results. In comparison to FEM, the results by wave method are accurate in low frequency regions, and the results are more accurate in the median and high frequency regions. The experiment proves wave method is correct and effective for jitter transmission analysis of frame structure in the median and high frequency regions.

Image fusion is to combine several different source images to form a new image by using a certain method. Recent studies show that among a variety of image fusion algorithms, the wavelet-based method is more effective. In the wavelet-based method, the key technique is the fusion scheme, which can decide the final fused result. This paper presents a novel fusion scheme that integrates the wavelet decomposed coefficients in a quite separate way when fusing images. The method is formed by considering the different physical meanings of the coefficients in both the low frequency and high frequency bands. The fused results were compared with several existing fusion methods and evaluated by three measures of performance. The experimental results can demonstrate that the proposed method can achieve better performance than conventional image fusion methods.

We present a novel direction-aware feature-level frequency decomposition network for single image deraining. Compared with existing solutions, the proposed network has three compelling characteristics. First, unlike previous algorithms, we propose to perform frequency decomposition at feature-level instead of image-level, allowing both low-frequency maps containing structures and high-frequency maps containing details to be continuously refined during the training procedure. Second, we further establish communication channels between low-frequency maps and high-frequency maps to interactively capture structures from high-frequency maps and add them back to low-frequency maps and, simultaneously, extract details from low-frequency maps and send them back to high-frequency maps, thereby removing rain streaks while preserving more delicate features in the input image. Third, different from existing algorithms using convolutional filters consistent in all directions, we propose a direction-aware filter to capture the direction of rain streaks in order to more effectively and thoroughly purge the input images of rain streaks. We extensively evaluate the proposed approach in three representative datasets and experimental results corroborate our approach consistently outperforms state-of-the-art deraining algorithms.

In order to get an image with every object in focus, an image fusion process is required to fuse the images under different focal settings. In this paper, a new multifocus image fusion algorithm is proposed. The algorithm is based on Laplacian pyramid and Gabor filters. The source images are decomposed by Laplacian pyramid, then the directional edges feature and detail information can be obtained by Gabor filters. Different fusion rules are applied to the low frequency and high frequency coefficients. The experimental results show that the algorithm is simple and effective.

To study the social consensus system under the spread of negative emotions, the nonlinear emergence model of frangibility of social consensus system is established based on Multiagent method, and effects of emotions spread frequency, opinion leaders, and shielding behavior of government on the frangibility of social consensus system are revealed. The simulation results show that the low-frequency negative emotions spread is better than the high-frequency one for reducing the frangibility of social consensus system. Low-frequency negative emotions spread will lead to the group polarization, while high frequency will lead to the collapse of system. The joining of opinion leaders who are with negative emotions can promote the frangibility of social consensus system, and collapse speed of social consensus system tends to increase with the influence of opinion leaders. Shielding behavior of government cannot effectively block the spread of negative emotions. On the contrary, it will enhance the frangibility of social consensus system.

The article examines some features of dynamics of engines with shut-off cylinders. This technology can promote reduction of fuel consumption and emission of toxic substances with exhaust fumes at partial speed and loading modes. However, the dynamics of such engines have hardly been considered in previous works. Using calculations (solid state modeling, simulation of motion using software for studying dynamics of mechanisms, as well as the finite element method), the indicators of uniformity of stroke and torque, vibration displacement and vibration velocity of various points of the structure at low- and high-frequency vibration are determined. It is shown that when deactivating a different number of cylinders, the uniformity of the engine torque worsens (to a varying degree) and the load on the crankshaft bearings increases. The average quadratic values of vibration velocity of the bearings at low-frequency vibration and the vibration velocity of the lateral walls of the housing parts at high-frequency vibration increases as well. While engines with deactivated cylinders definitely have advantages in efficiency and environmental performance, they do not improve vibrational and dynamic characteristics, which is particularly evident at low rotational speeds of the shaft and at small loads.

In order to eliminate calculation error, wavelet transform is used to remove noise when navigational data is used to calculate truth-value of three-component geomagnetic field. By introducing Euler attitude rotation matrix, the computing value of geomagnetic vector is decomposed by multi-scale wavelet transform in each frequency. The high-frequency noise is removed and the accurate value of geomagnetic field can be got by rebuilding low-frequency component. Simulation results indicate that the calculated value is identical with setting value and has high precision, which means the method has great applied importance and instructional significance for practical measurement of marine three-component geomagnetic field.
