Firstly, the batch-axis information and time-axis information are combined into one quadratic performance index. It implies the integration of ILC and MPC algorithm idea, which leads to superior tracking performance and better robustness against disturbance and uncertainty. To address the problem of the unknown optimal trajectory, both time-varying prediction horizon and end product quality control are employed. Moreover, an integrated 2 D just-in-time learning(JITL) model is used to improve the predictive accuracy. Furthermore, rigorous description and proof are presented to prove the convergence and tracking performance of the proposed MPC-ILC strategy. The simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.展开更多

Significance of air quality assessment and emission control strategy design is increasing. Most studies in China focus on particulate matter(PM), especially PM2.5, while few account for photochemical secondary air pollutions represented by ozone(O3). In this paper, a procedure for air quality simulation with comprehensive air quality model with extensions(CAMx) is demonstrated for studying the photochemical process and ozone generation in the troposphere. As a case study, the CAMx photochemical grid model is used to model ozone over southern part of Beijing city in winter, 2011. The input parameters to CAMx include emission sources, meteorology field data, terrain definition, photolysis status, initial and boundary conditions. The simulation results are verified by theoretical analysis of the ozone generation tendency. The simulated variation tendency of domain-wide average value of hourly ozone concentration coincides reasonably well with the theoretical analysis on the atmospheric photochemical process, demonstrating the effectiveness of the procedure. An integrated model system that cooperates with CAMx will be established in our future work.展开更多

In this paper, external DEMs are used for InSAR DEM generation to reduce the errors in data processing. The DEMs generated from repeat-pass InSAR are compared. For steep slopes and severe changes in topography, phase unwrapping quality can be improved by subtracting the phase calculated from an external DEM. It is affirmative that the absolute height accuracy of the InSAR DEM is improved by using external DEM. The data processing was undertaken without the use of ground control points and other manual operation.展开更多

First, we propose the interfer- ence constraint which ensures that the Quality of Service (QoS) standards for primary users is considered and a non-cooperative game power control model. Based on the proposed model, we developed a logical utility function based on the Signal-to-Interference-Noise Ratio (S/NR) and a novel algorithm network power control. that is suitable for CR Then, the existence and uniqueness of the Nash Equilibrium (NE) in our utility function are proved by the principle of game theory and the corresponding optimi- zations. Compared to traditional algorithms, the proposed one could converge to an NE in 3-5 iterative operations by setting an appropriate pricing factor. Finally, simulation results ver- ified the stability and superiority of the novel algorithm in flat-fading channel environments.展开更多

The uncertainty of the interwell reservoir interpolation based only on well data can be decreased by comprehensive utilization of geological, logging and seismic data, especially by using highly relative seismic properties from 3D seismic data adjusted by well point data to restrict interpolation of geological properties. A 3D-geological model which takes the sand body as the direct modeling object was built through stacking the structure, reservoir and water/oil/gas properties together in 3D space.展开更多

The model is four-independent-suspension and four-wheel-track with 8DOF, and has proved more appropriate compared with some conventional vehicle models. Based on the derived 8DOF model, a controller for this model is designed by the use of H∞ control theory, Furthermore the appropriate control scheme is selected by testing various performance indexes. The study shows that satisfying results can be obtained by using an appropriate vehicle model, even if a low order controller and a general control strategy are adopted.展开更多

Based on the real-time analysis of the compaction index, a multiple regression model of the dam compactness was established and a realime estimation method of compaction quality for the entire work area of roller compacted concrete dam was proposed finally. The adaptive adjustment of the roiling process parameters was achieved, with the speed, the exciting force, the roller pass and the compaction thickness meeting the standards during the whole construction process. As a result, the compaction quality and construction efficiency can be improved. The research provides a new way for the construction quality control of roller compacted concrete dam.展开更多

Traditionally this control is being realized through a series of electrical measurements including capacity, tension, and tgct. In most cases, these measurements are not suitable for detecting defects that appear as a result of failures of certain elements of the assembly lines. These so called self-recovering failures very often remain unnoticed, because they do not cause a suspension of the assembly process and if not taken into consideration, they can seriously menace the final product quality. In this paper, the authors use PFMEA to identify and evaluate the risk of the self-recovering failures. They also propose a simple Simulink model, which could be useful when trying to estimate the effect of installing new control devices at an existing assembly line upon its overall reliability and productivity.展开更多

However, it is also of common concern that the subjectivity of rating process and the potential unfairness for test takers who encounter different writing prompts and speaking tasks would constitute threats to reliability and validity of test scores, especially in those large-scale and high-stakes tests. Therefore, appropriate means for quality control of subjective scoring should be held essential in test administration and validation. Based upon raw scores from one administration of speaking test in PETS Band3 held in Hangzhou, the present study investigates and models possible sources of score variability within the framework of Many-Facet Rasch Model (MFRM). MFRM conceptualizes the possibility of a examinee being awarded a certain score as a function of several facets — examinee ability, rater severity, domain difficulty and step difficulty between the adjacent score categories and provides estimates of the extent to which the examinee's test score is influenced by those facets. Model construction and data analysis was carried out in FACETS Version 3.58, computer program for conducting MFRM analysis. The results demonstrate statistically significant differences within each facet. Despite the generally acceptable rater consistency across examinees and rating domains, fit statistics indicate some unexpected rating patterns in certain raters such as inconsistency and central tendency, to be avoided through future rater training. Fair scores for each examinee are also provided, minimizing the variability due to facets other than examinees' ability. MFRM manifests itself as effective in detecting whether each test method facet functions as intended in performance assessment and providing useful feedback for quality control of subjective scoring.展开更多
