In this paper, a versatile drum setup for measuring rolling resistance of small wheels is presented. The purpose is to provide a flexible setup for testing of models for rolling resistance under controlled circumstances. To demonstrate this, measurements of rolling resistance with a series of sandpapers of different grit sizes representing surface textures were carried out. The measurements show a clear increase in the rolling-resistance coefficient with increasing surface roughness, rolling speed and load. Numerical calculations in the time domain for a visco-elastic contact model run on equivalent surfaces agree with the trends found experimentally. We conclude that this approach to simplifying the experiment in order to obtain a high degree of control, accuracy and repeatability is useful for validating and testing models for calculating the rolling resistance for a given surface texture.

The Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST) is one of China’s major pieces of national infrastructure. A variable cable-net structure is used as the main supporting structure of the active reflector. The displacement of the cable net works through actuators. The realization of linkage control is a multi-degree-of-freedom and complex coupling control system. Due to factors such as the temperature difference between day and night, as well as actuator failure, the reflector control accuracy and even structural safety are affected during the position-control process of the cable net, so realizing evaluation of control accuracy and fault warning of the reflector is a significant problem. This paper proposes a pre-evaluation and health monitoring system based on advanced mechanical simulation technology. Through this system, on-site staff can expeditiously analyze the model to determine whether the cable net is currently in a safe state, predict the fatigue degree of the components, and maintain the structure when appropriate. The pre-evaluation and health monitoring system adequately ensure the stable functioning of the FAST cable net, improve the efficiency of on-site maintenance work, and markedly reduce the safety risk of the structure.

Induction heating systems are characterized by model uncertainty, nonlinearity, and external disturbances, and the control accuracy of the system directly affects the performance of the heated workpiece. In order to improve the temperature control accuracy and anti-interference performance of induction heating systems, this paper proposes a composite control strategy combining fractional-order PID (FOPID) and active disturbance rejection control (ADRC). Meanwhile, for the problem of too many controller tuning parameters, an improved quantum behavior particle swarm optimization (QPSO) algorithm is used to transform the nine parameters to be tuned in fractional-order PID active disturbance rejection control (FOPID-ADRC) into a minimization value optimization problem for solving. The simulation results show that the FOPID-ADRC controller improves the anti-interference capability and control accuracy of the temperature control system, and the improved QPSO algorithm has better global search capability and local optimal adaptation value.

In order to improve data security, ensure user privacy, and solve the problems of low data access control accuracy, long time consumption, and high energy consumption in traditional methods, a cloud computing storage data access control method based on dynamic re-encryption is proposed. The principal component analysis method is used to reduce the dimension of the cloud computing storage data, and the random forest algorithm is further used to classify and process the cloud computing storage data according to the processing results. On the basis of data preprocessing, an access control tree is established to obtain the correlation of data nodes. Finally, the dynamic re-encryption method is used for data security state transformation, and the data access control of cloud computing storage is realized through key generation, encryption, re-encryption key generation, and decryption. The experimental results show that the data access control accuracy of the method in this paper is high, time consumption is small, and energy consumption is small, and it is more suitable for cloud computing systems with huge data and information.

Urinary incontinence (UI) is a common problem affecting older adult women globally, but studies regarding combined treatments for all types of UI are still lacking. Here we evaluate the efficacy of a comprehensive rehabilitation program for women with UI. A comprehensive rehabilitation program was introduced that combines pelvic floor muscle (PFM) exercises, functional electrical stimulation, and timely biofeedback during the training process. Data of patients with stress (SUI), urgency (UUI), or mixed (MUI) urinary incontinence who participated in this program between 2016 and 2019 were reviewed retrospectively. Seventy-three subjects (mean age 59.2 ± 12.7 years) were enrolled. After 12 weeks of rehabilitation, vaginal pressure and control accuracy increased in all groups. PFM maximum recruitment increased significantly at week 12 in SUI and UUI, but not in MUI. At week 6, only the SUI group had achieved significant improvements in vaginal pressure, PFM maximum recruitment and control accuracy. The Short-form Urogenital Distress Inventory (UDI-6) and Incontinence Impact Questionnaire-7 (IIQ-7) scores declined dramatically after the program started, and significant improvements were maintained to week 48. The comprehensive rehabilitation program is effective and decreases urinary leakage episodes and improves quality of life in women with UI, especially SUI.

In order to solve the problems of repetitive and non-repetitive interference in the workflow of Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV), Iterative Learning Control (ILC) combined with linear extended state observer (LESO) is utilized to improve the control accuracy of AGV drive motor. Considering the working conditions of AGV, the load characteristics of the drive motor are analyzed with which the mathematical model of motor system is established. Then the third-order extended state space equations of the system approximate model is obtained, in which LESO is designed to estimate the system states and the total disturbance. For the repeatability of AGV workflow, ILC is designed to improve the control accuracy. As the goods mass transported each time is not same, the LESO is utilized to estimate the non-repetitive load disturbance in real time and compensate the disturbance of the system to improve the position precision. The convergence of the combined algorithm is also verified. Simulation and experimental results show that the proposed iterative learning control strategy based on LESO can reduce the positioning error in AGV workflow and improve the system performance.

This paper investigates the control problem of the buoyancy regulation system for autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV). There are some problems to be considered in the oil-water conversion-based buoyancy regulation system, including the external seawater pressure, the pressure fluctuations, and the slow switching speed of the ball valve. The control accuracy of the buoyancy regulation under the traditional PID controller cannot meet the requirements of the project. In this paper, a fuzzy sliding mode control scheme is developed for the buoyancy regulation system to solve the abovementioned problems. At first, a mathematical model of the buoyancy regulation system is established, and the stability of the system is analyzed. Then, the sliding mode control algorithm is combined with the fuzzy system to improve the control accuracy. Finally, the pool-experiment results on a prototype show that the developed control scheme can meet the requirements of the control accuracy for the buoyancy regulation system.
