However, typhoon surge is a complex nonlinear process that is difficult to forecast accurately. We applied a principal component back-propagation neural network (PCBPNN) to predict the deviation in typhoon storm surge, in which data of the typhoon, upstream flood, and historical case studies were involved. With principal component analysis, 15 input factors were reduced to five principal components, and the application of the model was improved. Observation data from Huangpu Park in Shanghai, China were used to test the feasibility of the model. The results indicate that the model is capable of predicting a 12-hour warning before a typhoon surge.展开更多

The positi...The semi-round rigid feet would cause position-posture deviation problem because the actual foothold position is hardly known due to the rolling effect of the semi-round rigid feet during the robot walking. The position-posture deviation problem may harm to the stability and the harmony of the robot, or even makes the robot tip over and fail to walk forward. Focused on the position-posture deviation problem of multi-legged walking robots with semi-round rigid feet, a new method of position-posture closed-loop control is proposed to solve the position-posture deviation problem caused by semi-round rigid feet, based on the inverse velocity kinematics of the multi-legged walking robots. The position-posture closed-loop control is divided into two parts: the position closed-loop control and the posture closed-loop control. Thus, the position-posture control for the robot which is a tight coupling and nonlinear system is decoupled. Co-simulations of position-posture open-loop control and position-posture closed-loop control by MATLAB and ADAMS are implemented, respectively. The co-simulation results verify that the position-posture closed-loop control performs well in solving the position-posture deviation problem caused by semi-round rigid feet.展开更多

Based on large deflection theory, a discretely stiffened plate model has been used. The tangential stresses of stiffeners and in-plane displacement are neglected. Appling the Hamilton's principle, the motion equations of stiffened plates are obtained. The deflection of the plate is taken as Fourier series, and using Galerkin method the discrete equations can be deduced, which can be solved easily by Runge-Kutta method. The dynamic buckling loads of the stiffened plates are obtained form Budiansky-Roth criterion.展开更多

A simple and effective model transformation method was proposed for the system's mathematical model in the COI (center of inertia) coordinate system. The system was transformed to an uncertain linear one where deviation of generator terminal voltage became one of the new state variables. Then a wide-area nonlinear robust voltage controller was designed utilizing a LMI (linear matrix inequality) based robust control theory. The proposed controller does not rely on any preselected system operating point, adapts to variations of network parameters and system operation conditions, and assures regulation accuracy of generator terminal voltages. Neither rotor angle nor any variable's differentiation needs to be measured for the proposed controller, and only terminal voltages, rotor speeds, active and reactive power outputs of generators are required. In addition, the proposed controller not only takes into account time delays of remote signals, but also eliminates the effect of wide-area information's incompleteness when not all generators are equipped with PMU (phase measurement unit). Detailed tests were conducted by PSCAD/EMTDC for a three-machine and four-machine power systems respectively, and simulation results illustrate high performance of the proposed controller.展开更多
