However, a clear classification,fair comparison, and performance rationalization of these methods are lacking, due to the scattered existing studies. To address these issues, we develop 20 capacity estimation methods from three perspectives:charging sequence construction, input forms, and ML models. 22,582 charging curves are generated from 44 cells with different battery chemistry and operating conditions to validate the performance. Through comprehensive and unbiased comparison, the long short-term memory(LSTM) based neural network exhibits the best accuracy and robustness. Across all 6503 tested samples, the mean absolute percentage error(MAPE) for capacity estimation using LSTM is 0.61%, with a maximum error of only 3.94%. Even with the addition of 3 m V voltage noise or the extension of sampling intervals to 60 s, the average MAPE remains below 2%. Furthermore, the charging sequences are provided with physical explanations related to battery degradation to enhance confidence in their application. Recommendations for using other competitive methods are also presented. This work provides valuable insights and guidance for estimating battery capacity based on partial charging curves.展开更多

It estimates the maximum number of k-hop sessions in a network based on the k-hop adjacency matrix of the network.The second algorithm MFCA-2 is used to estimate network capacity in a situation where different links may have different delays.It calculates the maximum number of sessions in a network with an end-to-end delay constraint based on the adjacency matrix and the link-delay matrix of the network.Numerical and simulation results show that both MFCA-1 and MFCA-2 can calculate network capacity much faster than the well-known Brute-Force Search Algorithm (BFSA) but with the same accuracy.展开更多

The objective is to provide railway undertakings with access to the railway network on equal terms. The main problem is determining the infrastructure capacity. A variety of methodologies are used across Europe for the capacity estimation of railway infrastructure. This diversity has forced railway infrastructure managers to seek a new, common methodology. The UIC methodology is an easy way to calculate the capacity consumption. However, there the possibility to expound this methodology in different ways, which can result in different capacity consumptions. There isan advantage to improve this methodology and to set a clear and unified method of occupation time estimation. The fundamental improvement to UIC methodology is the definition of the occupation time by the trains. This paper gives a description of Slovak and UIC methodologies as a basis for a newly developed approach. The new way of estimation of the capacity consumption (occupation time) is based on a graphic approach. The new methodology concerns the estimation of the infrastructure occupation time and is a conceptual framework developed by the authors for an easier evaluation of occupation time in train traffic diagrams. The new methodology makes the UIC methodology more usable and enables more exact results to be obtained from infrastructure capacity examination.展开更多

This highlights that the pollution control strategies should be taken according to different pollutant species and sources in different watersheds rather than one-size-fits-all .展开更多

Unfortunately, there is no consensus on the best approach for estimating capacity from ITS data. The motivation of this paper is to compare and contrast four of the most popular capacity estimation techniques in terms of (1) data requirements, (2) modeling effort required, (3) esti- mated parameter values, (4) theoretical background, and (5) statistical differences across time and over geographically dispersed locations. Specifically, the first method is the maximum observed value, the second is a standard funda- mental diagram curve fitting approach using the popular Van Aerde model, the third method uses the breakdown identifi- cation approach, and the fourth method is the survival prob- ability based on product limit method. These four approaches were tested on two test beds: one is located in San Diego, California, U.S., and has data from 112 work days; the other is located in Shanghai, China, and consists of 81 work days. It was found that, irrespective of the estimation methodology and the definition of capacity, the estimated capacity can vary considerably over time. The second finding was that, as ex- pected, the different approaches yielded different capacity results. These estimated capacities varied by as much as 26 % at the San Diego test site and by 34 % at the Shanghai test site. It was also found that each of the methodologies has advantages and disadvantages, and the best method will be the function of the available data, the application, and the goals of the modeler. Consequently, it is critical for users of automatic capacity estimation techniques, which utilize ITS data, to understand the underlying assumptions of each of the different approaches.展开更多

文摘Lithium-ion batteries(LIBs)have emerged as the preferred energy storage systems for various types of electric transports,including electric vehicles,electric boats,electric trains,and electric airplanes.The energy management of LIBs in electric transports for all-climate and long-life operation requires the accurate estimation of state of charge(SOC)and capacity in real-time.This study proposes a multistage model fusion algorithm to co-estimate SOC and capacity.Firstly,based on the assumption of a normal distribution,the mean and variance of the residual error from the model at different ageing levels are used to calculate the weight for the establishment of a fusion model with stable parameters.Secondly,a differential error gain with forward-looking ability is introduced into a proportional–integral observer(PIO)to accelerate convergence speed.Thirdly,a fusion algorithm is developed by combining a multistage model and proportional–integral–differential observer(PIDO)to co-estimate SOC and capacity under a complex application environment.Fourthly,the convergence and anti-noise performance of the fusion algorithm are discussed.Finally,the hardware-in-the-loop platform is set up to verify the performance of the fusion algorithm.The validation results of different aged LIBs over a wide range of temperature show that the presented fusion algorithm can realize a high-accuracy estimation of SOC and capacity with the relative errors within 2%and 3.3%,respectively.

文摘To ensure smooth and reliable operations of battery systems,reliable prognosis with accurate prediction of State of Health of lithium ion batteries is of utmost importance.However,battery degradation is a complex challenge involving many electrochemical reactions at anode,separator,cathode and electrolyte/electrode interfaces.Also,there is significant effect of the operating conditions on the battery degradation.Various machine learning tech-niques have been applied to estimate the capacity and State of Health of lithium ion batteries to ensure reliable operation and timely maintenance.In this paper,we study the Gaussian Process Regression(GPR)and Support Vector Machine(SVM)model-based approaches in estimating the capacity and State of Health of batteries.Bat-tery capacity and State of Health estimations are carried out using GPR and SVM models and the predictions comparatively studied for accuracy based on RMSE values.The prediction accuracy is further compared with re-spect to single sensor and multi sensor data.Further,a combined multi battery data set model is used to improve the prediction accuracy.Combining the data of multiple batteries with similar operating conditions for training a model resulted in higher prediction accuracy.
文摘The priority of the EU transport policy in railway sector is to open up the railway market. The objective is to provide railway undertakings with access to the railway network on equal terms. The main problem is determining the infrastructure capacity. A variety of methodologies are used across Europe for the capacity estimation of railway infrastructure. This diversity has forced railway infrastructure managers to seek a new, common methodology. The UIC methodology is an easy way to calculate the capacity consumption. However, there the possibility to expound this methodology in different ways, which can result in different capacity consumptions. There isan advantage to improve this methodology and to set a clear and unified method of occupation time estimation. The fundamental improvement to UIC methodology is the definition of the occupation time by the trains. This paper gives a description of Slovak and UIC methodologies as a basis for a newly developed approach. The new way of estimation of the capacity consumption (occupation time) is based on a graphic approach. The new methodology concerns the estimation of the infrastructure occupation time and is a conceptual framework developed by the authors for an easier evaluation of occupation time in train traffic diagrams. The new methodology makes the UIC methodology more usable and enables more exact results to be obtained from infrastructure capacity examination.

文摘An innovative approach based on water environmental capacity for non-point source NPS pollution removal rate estimation was discussed by using both univariate and multivariate data analysis.Taking Shenzhen city as the study case a 67% to 74% NPS pollutant load removal rate can lead to meeting the chemical oxygen demand COD pollution control target for most watersheds.In contrast it is hardly to achieve the ammonia nitrogen NH4-N total phosphorus TP and biological oxygen demand BOD5 pollution control target by simply removing NPS pollutants. This highlights that the pollution control strategies should be taken according to different pollutant species and sources in different watersheds rather than one-size-fits-all .
文摘With the recent advent of Intelligent Transporta- tion Systems (ITS), and their associated data collection and archiving capabilities, there is now a rich data source for transportation professionals to develop capacity values for their own jurisdictions. Unfortunately, there is no consensus on the best approach for estimating capacity from ITS data. The motivation of this paper is to compare and contrast four of the most popular capacity estimation techniques in terms of (1) data requirements, (2) modeling effort required, (3) esti- mated parameter values, (4) theoretical background, and (5) statistical differences across time and over geographically dispersed locations. Specifically, the first method is the maximum observed value, the second is a standard funda- mental diagram curve fitting approach using the popular Van Aerde model, the third method uses the breakdown identifi- cation approach, and the fourth method is the survival prob- ability based on product limit method. These four approaches were tested on two test beds: one is located in San Diego, California, U.S., and has data from 112 work days; the other is located in Shanghai, China, and consists of 81 work days. It was found that, irrespective of the estimation methodology and the definition of capacity, the estimated capacity can vary considerably over time. The second finding was that, as ex- pected, the different approaches yielded different capacity results. These estimated capacities varied by as much as 26 % at the San Diego test site and by 34 % at the Shanghai test site. It was also found that each of the methodologies has advantages and disadvantages, and the best method will be the function of the available data, the application, and the goals of the modeler. Consequently, it is critical for users of automatic capacity estimation techniques, which utilize ITS data, to understand the underlying assumptions of each of the different approaches.
文摘In this paper,the concept of environmental capacity is developed to identify a convenient maximum traffic volume which will not reduce the life quality of residents.The presented method investigates the idea of traffic capacity under environmental constraints by calculating the maximum number of vehicles allowed on roads based on acceptable levels of air and noise pollutants.In this study,the permissible noise pollution level and permissible levels of CO and NOxpollution are considered for determining environmental capacity.Results show the significant difference between environmental capacity and functional traffic capacity,introduced by the highway capacity manual(HCM)as a conventional method for estimating functional capacity.Thus,maximum allowed pollution is considered a constraint on a vehicle flow rate,which shows the proper traffic flow for selected streets in Tehran,Iran’s capital.The paper concludes that traffic capacity under noise and air pollution constraints is much less(approximately one-fourth and one-eighth for noise and air pollution respectively)than the current highway capacity estimated using HCM guidelines.Therefore,to save the cities like Tehran from noise and air pollution,traffic flows should be limited to the level of environmental capacity by implementing some travel demand management(TDM)policies like road pricing.

文摘Efficient assessment of battery degradation is important to effectively utilize and maintain battery management systems.This study introduces an innovative residual convolutional network(RCN)-gated recurrent unit(GRU)model to accurately assess health of lithium-ion batteries on multiple time scales.The model employs a soft parameter-sharing mechanism to identify both short-d dT and long-term degradation patterns.The continuously looped(V),T(V),dQ/dV and dT/dV are extracted to form a four-channel image,dV dV from which the RCN can automatically extract the features and the GRU can capture the temporal features.By designing a soft parameter-sharing mechanism,the model can seamlessly predict the capacity and remaining useful life(RUL)on a dual time scale.The proposed method is validated on a large MIT-Stanford dataset comprising 124 cells,showing a high accuracy in terms of mean absolute errors of 0.00477 for capacity and 83 for RUL.Furthermore,studying the partial voltage fragment reveals the promising performance of the proposed method across various voltage ranges.Specifically,in the partial voltage segment of 2.8-3.2 V,root mean square errors of 0.0107 for capacity and 140 for RUL are achieved.
文摘This paper outlines a theory of estimation,where optimality is defined for all sizes of data—not only asymptotically.Also one principle is needed to cover estimation of both real-valued parameters and their number.To achieve this we have to abandon the traditional assumption that the observed data have been generated by a“true”distribution,and that the objective of estimation is to recover this from the data.Instead,the objective in this theory is to fit‘models’as distributions to the data in order to find the regular statistical features.The performance of the fitted models is measured by the probability they assign to the data:a large probability means a good fit and a small probability a bad fit.Equivalently,the negative logarithm of the probability should be minimized,which has the interpretation of code length.There are three equivalent characterizations of optimal estimators,the first defined by estimation capacity,the second to satisfy necessary conditions for optimality for all data,and the third by the complete Minimum Description Length(MDL)principle.

文摘The issue of optimal blocking for fractional factorial split-plot (FFSP) designs is considered under the two criteria of minimum aberration and maximum estimation capacity. The criteria of minimum secondary aberration (MSA) and maximum secondary estimation capacity (MSEC) are developed for discriminating among rival nonisomorphic blcoked FFSP designs. A general rule for identifying MSA or MSEC blocked FFSP designs through their blocked consulting designs is established.
