Preliminary build and application of a data analysis platform for coiled tubing steel strips

To solve the problems in the quality control and improvement of coiled tubing steel strips production, such as scattered and inefficient production data, difficult performance fluctuation factor analysis, complex multivariate statistical analysis, and low accuracy and difficulty in mechanical property prediction, an industrial data analysis platform for coiled tubing steel strips production has been preliminarily developed.As the premise and foundation of analysis, industrial data collection, storage, and utilization are realized by using multiple big data technologies.With Django as the agile development framework, data visualization and comprehensive analyses are achieved.The platform has functions including overview survey, stability analysis, comprehensive analysis(such as exploratory data analysis, correlation analysis, and multivariate statistics),precise steel strength prediction, and skin-passing process recommendation.The platform is helpful for production overviewing and prompt responding, laying a foundation for an in-depth understanding of product characteristics and improving product performance stability.

Trajectory Tracking of a Planer Parallel Manipulator by Using Computed Force Control Method

Despite small workspace, parallel manipulators have some advantages over their serial counterparts in terms of higher speed, acceleration, rigidity, accuracy, manufacturing cost and payload. Accordingly, this type of manipulators can be used in many applications such as in high-speed machine tools, tuning machine for feeding, sensitive cutting, assembly and packaging. This paper presents a special type of planar parallel manipulator with three degrees of freedom. It is constructed as a variable geometry truss generally known planar Stewart platform. The reachable and orientation workspaces are obtained for this manipulator. The inverse kinematic analysis is solved for the trajectory tracking according to the redundancy and joint limit avoidance. Then, the dynamics model of the manipulator is established by using Virtual Work method. The simulations are performed to follow the given planar trajectories by using the dynamic equations of the variable geometry truss manipulator and computed force control method. In computed force control method, the feedback gain matrices for PD control are tuned with fixed matrices by trail end error and variable ones by means of optimization with genetic algorithm.

Multi-channel microfluidic chip-mass spectrometry platform for cell analysis

In this review, we highlight the latest development of multi-channel microfluidic chip-mass spectrometry（chip-MS） in cell analysis and metabolite detection. Following a brief introduction about history and development of multi-channel microchip and MS combination, we will elaborate the key issues of constructing chip-MS platform interface. Then exciting progresses made in this field should be reviewed with well exemplified works, including chip-MS technology for cell introduction, pretreatment of cell secretions and cell metabolite analysis. We will also describe the development of integrated total analysis systems proposed by our group. We hope this brief review will inspire interested readers and provide knowledge about chip-MS platform in the bioanalysis field, particularly in cell analysis and metabolite identifying applications.

MobSafe:Cloud Computing Based Forensic Analysis for Massive Mobile Applications Using Data Mining

With the explosive increase in mobile apps, more and more threats migrate from traditional PC client to mobile device. Compared with traditional Win＋Intel alliance in PC, Android＋ARM alliance dominates in Mobile Internet, the apps replace the PC client software as the major target of malicious usage. In this paper, to improve the security status of current mobile apps, we propose a methodology to evaluate mobile apps based on cloud computing platform and data mining. We also present a prototype system named MobSafe to identify the mobile app＇s virulence or benignancy. Compared with traditional method, such as permission pattern based method, MobSafe combines the dynamic and static analysis methods to comprehensively evaluate an Android app. In the implementation, we adopt Android Security Evaluation Framework （ASEF） and Static Android Analysis Framework （SAAF）, the two representative dynamic and static analysis methods, to evaluate the Android apps and estimate the total time needed to evaluate all the apps stored in one mobile app market. Based on the real trace from a commercial mobile app market called AppChina, we can collect the statistics of the number of active Android apps, the average number apps installed in one Android device, and the expanding ratio of mobile apps. As mobile app market serves as the main line of defence against mobile malwares, our evaluation results show that it is practical to use cloud computing platform and data mining to verify all stored apps routinely to filter out malware apps from mobile app markets. As the future work, MobSafe can extensively use machine learning to conduct automotive forensic analysis of mobile apps based on the generated multifaceted data in this stage.
