The machine learning algorithm is developed for frequency predication of patterns that are formed on the Chladni plate and focused on the application of machine learning algorithms in image processing. In the Chladni plate, nodes and antinodes are demonstrated at various excited frequencies. Sand on the plate creates specific patterns when it is excited by vibrations from a mechanical oscillator. In the experimental setup, a rectangular aluminum plate of 16 cm x 16 cm and 0.61 mm thickness was placed over the mechanical oscillator, which was driven by a sine wave signal generator. 14 Chladni patterns are obtained on a Chladni plate and validation is done with modal analysis in Ansys. For machine learning, a large number of data sets are required, as captured around 200 photos of each modal frequency and around 3000 photos with a camera of all 14 Chladni patterns for supervised learning. The current model is written in Python language and model has one convolution layer. The main modules used in this are Tensor Flow Keras, NumPy, CV2 and Maxpooling. The fed reference data is taken for 14 frequencies between 330 Hz to 3910 Hz. In the model, all the images are converted to grayscale and canny edge detected. All patterns of frequencies have an almost 80% - 99% correlation with test sample experimental data. This approach is to form a directory of Chladni patterns for future reference purpose in real-life application. A machine learning algorithm can predict the resonant frequency based on the patterns formed on the Chladni plate.展开更多

Time-dependent state space representations of LTV systems are first introduced, and the corresponding modal analysis theories are subsequently presented via a stabilitypreserving state transformation. The time-varying modes of LTV systems are extended in terms of uniqueness, and are further interpreted to determine the system's stability. An extended modal identification is proposed to estimate the time-varying modes, consisting of the estimation of the state transition matrix via a subspace-based method and the extraction of the time-varying modes by the QR decomposition. The proposed approach is numerically validated by three numerical cases, and is experimentally validated by a coupled moving-mass simply supported beam exper- imental case. The proposed approach is capable of accurately estimating the time-varying modes, and provides anew way to determine the dynamic stability of LTV systems by using the estimated time-varying modes.展开更多

An analogy was established with substructural analysis in structural mechanics, in which H_∞ decentralized control theory corresponds to substructural modal synthesis theory so that the optimal H_∞ norm of the whole system corresponds to the fundamental vibration frequency of the whole structure. Hence, modal synthesis methodology and the extended Wittrick_Williams algorithm were transplanted from structural mechanics to compute the optimal H_∞ norm of the control system. The orthogonality and the expansion theorem of eigenfunctions of the subsystems H_∞ control are presented in part (Ⅰ) of the paper. The modal synthesis method for computation of the optimal H_∞ norm of decentralized control systems and numerical examples are presented in part (Ⅱ).展开更多

文摘The ChatGPT,a lite and conversational variant of Generative Pretrained Transformer 4(GPT-4)developed by OpenAI,is one of the milestone Large Language Models(LLMs)with billions of parameters.LLMs have stirred up much interest among researchers and practitioners in their impressive skills in natural language processing tasks,which profoundly impact various fields.This paper mainly discusses the future applications of LLMs in dentistry.We introduce two primary LLM deployment methods in dentistry,including automated dental diagnosis and cross-modal dental diagnosis,and examine their potential applications.Especially,equipped with a cross-modal encoder,a single LLM can manage multi-source data and conduct advanced natural language reasoning to perform complex clinical operations.We also present cases to demonstrate the potential of a fully automatic Multi-Modal LLM AI system for dentistry clinical application.While LLMs offer significant potential benefits,the challenges,such as data privacy,data quality,and model bias,need further study.Overall,LLMs have the potential to revolutionize dental diagnosis and treatment,which indicates a promising avenue for clinical application and research in dentistry.
文摘Let S be a propositional modal system and S~* be the quantification of S, then we can prove the algebraic semantic completeness theorem of the kind of Rasiowa-Sikorski for S~* by showing that S has the property (E)given in [1]. But except for a few cases, it is very difficult to show thara system S has the property (E). So for most quantified modal systems,
文摘In [1] and [2], the late modal logician E. J. Lemmon investigated the connexion between the algebraic and Kripke’s semantics for two series of modal propositional systems;he also pronounced in [1] that a third paper would be prepared to discuss the same connexion for quantifications of all the modal systems considered therein. Unfortunately, owing to his untimely death, this Paper did not come out. In this note we discuss the
文摘When using H_∞ techniques to design decentralized controllers for large systems, the whole system is divided into subsystems, which are analysed using H_∞ control theory before being recombined. An analogy was established with substructural analysis in structural mechanics, in which H_∞ decentralized control theory corresponds to substructural modal synthesis theory so that the optimal H_∞ norm of the whole system corresponds to the fundamental vibration frequency of the whole structure. Hence, modal synthesis methodology and the extended Wittrick_Williams algorithm were transplanted from structural mechanics to compute the optimal H_∞ norm of the control system. The orthogonality and the expansion theorem of eigenfunctions of the subsystems H_∞ control are presented in part (Ⅰ) of the paper. The modal synthesis method for computation of the optimal H_∞ norm of decentralized control systems and numerical examples are presented in part (Ⅱ).
文摘This paper discusses the modal features of weakly-viscoelastic material structures both for single-modulus and multi-modulus materials. It is the eigenvalues of these structures that are the roots of a series of rational fraction polynomial equations. A theorem about the roots of these equations is proved in the paper. Based on it, some important conclusions about the modal features of the weakly viscoelastic material structures are given according to their dynamic behaviors.
文摘Modal and damage identification based on ambient excitation can greatly improve the efficiency of high-speed railway bridge vibration detection.This paper first describes the basic principles of stochastic subspace identification,peak-picking,and frequency domain decomposition method in modal analysis based on ambient excitation,and the effectiveness of these three methods is verified through finite element calculation and numerical simulation,Then the damage element is added to the finite element model to simulate the crack,and the curvature mode difference and the curvature mode area difference square ratio are calculated by using the stochastic subspace identification results to verify their ability of damage identification and location.Finally,the above modal and damage identification techniques are integrated to develop a bridge modal and damage identification software platform.The final results show that all three modal identification methods can accurately identify the vibration frequency and mode shape,both damage identification methods can accurately identify and locate the damage,and the developed software platform is simple and efficient.
文摘The tenth BRICS Summit was held in Johannesburg,South Africa in 2018,which attracted attention from the whole world.Especially,it is of great importance to the BRICS nations,for it is the first ten years of BRICS,which marks its growth.Meanwhile,this year the Trump administration imposed more strict policies on protectionism.Particularly,the trade war between China and the United States is so intensive.China,as the core member of BRICS has great clout on BRICS,so the trade war between China and US also arouse a heat discussion among the BRICS nations.During the Summit,CGTN invited experts from the five BRICS nations to discuss related topics.Systemic Functional Linguistics,as one of the most influential branches of Linguistics,was firstly established by M.A.K.Halliday,and it has been greatly developed over the past decades.Interpersonal meaning is one of the three meta-functions,which focuses on how addressers use language to communicate,establish and maintain relationships with addressees,and express their opinions.Mood and modality are two basic resources to the realization of interpersonal meaning.Mood is used to represent the interaction of the language users,while modality reflects the utterers’attitudes and judgments.The paper discusses the three aspects of modality:modal operators,modal adjuncts and metaphors of modality.The paper applies the modality system to the analysis of the transcript of BRICS TALK.The author selects the experts’speeches on the trade war between China and US as the data.The research questions are as followed:(1)the characteristics of the modality resources appeared in their talks;(2)the BRICS nations attitudes and stance on trade war and America’s protectionism.
文摘In telerobotic system for remote welding, human-machine interface is one of the most important factor for enhancing capability and efficiency. This paper presents an architecture design of human-machine interface for welding telerobotic system: welding multi-modal human-machine interface. The human-machine interface integrated several control modes, which are namely shared control, teleteaching, supervisory control and local autonomous control. Space mouse, panoramic vision camera and graphics simulation system are also integrated into the human-machine interface for welding teleoperation. Finally, weld seam tracing and welding experiments of U-shape seam are performed by these control modes respectively. The results show that the system has better performance of human-machine interaction and complexity environment welding.
