First, the elastic deformation of flexible solar arrays was described approximately by the assumed mode method, and a dynamic model was established by the second Lagrangian equation. Then, the nonholonomic motion planning problem is transformed into a nonlinear programming problem by using GPM. By giving fewer LG points, initial values of the state variables and control variables were obtained. A serial optimization framework was adopted to obtain the approximate optimal solution from a feasible solution. Finally, the control variables were discretized at LG points, and the precise optimal control inputs were obtained by DSM. The optimal trajectory of the system can be obtained through numerical integration. Through numerical simulation, the stretching process of solar arrays is stable with no detours, and the control inputs match the various constraints of actual conditions.The results indicate that the method is effective with good robustness.展开更多

Then, to improve the accuracy of samples' utilization, an unbalanced extension is used to reconstruct the training samples consisting of power time series. After that, DOP is applied to quantify the output weights based on the optimal overall performance. Meanwhile, a balance coefficient is studied for the enhanced reliability of PIs. Finally, the proposed method is validated through multistep PIs based on the numerical comparison of real PV generation data.展开更多

This paper presents a novel triple-redundant voice coil motor (TRVCM) used for redundant DDVs. The TRVCM features electrical/mechanical hybrid triple-redundancy by securing three stators along with three moving coils in the same frame. A permanent magnet (PM) Halbach array is employed in each redundant VCM to simplify the system structure. A back-to-back design between neighborly redundancies is adopted to decouple the magnetic flux linkage. The particle swarm optimization (PSO) method is implemented to optimize design parameters based on the analytical magnetic circuit model. The optimization objective function is defined as the acceleration capacity of the motor to achieve high dynamic performance. The optimal geometric parameters are verified with 3D magnetic field finite element analysis (FEA). A research prototype has been developed for experimental purpose. The experimental results of magnetic field density and force output show that the proposed TRVCM has great potential of applications in DDA systems.展开更多

In particular, this problem becomes more difficult when several objectives with preemptive priorities are expected for different purposes. In this paper, a fuzzy satisfactory goal programming method is proposed to solve the multi-objective reentry trajectory optimization problem. Firstly, direct collocation approach is used to discretize the reentry trajectory optimal-control problem with nonlinear constraints into nonlinear multiobjective programming problem with preemptive priorities, where attack angles and bank angles at nodes and collocation nodes are selected as control variables. Secondly, the preemptive priorities are transformed into the relaxed order of satisfactory degrees according to the principle that the objective with higher priority has higher satisfactory degree. Then the fuzzy satisfactory goal programming model is proposed. The balance between optimization and priorities is realized by regulating parameter λ, such that the satisfactory reentry trajectory can be acquired. The simulation demonstrates that the proposed method is effective for the multi-objective reentry trajectory optimization of hypersonic vehicles.展开更多
