Research on Electromagnetic Acoustic Emission Signal Recognition Based on Local Mean Decomposition and Least Squares Support Vector Machine

Electromagnetic acoustic emission technology is one of nondestructive testing, which can be used for defect detection of metal specimens. In this study, round and cracked metal specimens, round metal specimens, and intact metal specimens were prepared. And the electromagnetic acoustic emission signals of the three specimens were collected. In addition, the local mean decomposition(LMD), Autoregressive model(AR model) and least squares support vector machine (LSSVM) algorithms were combined to identify the eletromagnetic acoustic emission signals of round and cracked, round, and intact specimens. According to the algorithm recognition results, the recognition accuracy of can reach above 97.5%, which has a higher recognition rate compared with SVM and BP neural network. The results of the study show that the algorithm is able to identify quickly and accurately crack defect in metal specimens.

Thermal-force control ability under variation of electromagnetic stick structure parameters in RPECT

Thermal-force driving of roll profile electromagnetic control technology(RPECT),which can be used to adjust the roll profile,can be affected by the sequential temperature rise between the electromagnetic stick(ES)and electromagnetic control roll.Due to the limited space of ES and induction coil,the cross-sectional area of induction coil can be inevitably affected by changing the size of the ES induction zone,which can further change the energy input under the same electromagnetic parameters,the temperature rising effect and the bulging ability.To investigate this phenomenon,the effects of the radius of the induction zone on the thermal-force contribution ratio,the heating ability of ES and the temperature distribution were analyzed through an electromagnetic-thermal-structural finite element model.To ensure that the results are applicable to RPECT,the thermal energy conversion ability and thermal-force roll crown control ability under different lengths of the induction zone were analyzed.It was found that whether the current density regulation mode or the current frequency regulation mode is adopted,the cases with 20 or 25 mm radius of the induction zone have the great thermal energy conversion ability and the good thermal-force roll crown control ability.The reasonable adjustment of the length of the induction zone can reduce the radius required for the maximum energy efficiency regulation.Combined with the results of the simulation analysis,the optimization of ES based on the control ability maximization requirement is achieved,which provides the base for the design and configuration of ES in RPECT.

Deployable Antenna with Compact Ortho-mode Transducer and Feeding Systems

The compact ortho-mode transducer (OMT) and compact conical corrugated horn(CCCH) are used as feeding system of the deployable dual polarizing antenna in this paper.A new stricture of double-septum in main wave guide OMT is proposed. The finite difference method in time domain (FDTD) in combination with genetic algorithms(GAs) is used to analysis and optimize this new OMT. The experiment results show that the voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) of this OMT and feeding system is less than 1.17 in bandwidth; the isolation between the ortho-mode ports is less than -40dB; the cross-polar level of the feed can reach -35dB and the length of the main waveguide can be reduced 50% at least.

Biological perspectives in geotechnics:Application and monitoring

This paper builds on exploring the applications of biomediated pathways to solve geotechnical challenges.First,the state of the art of biological remediation strategies including microbial remediation and phytoremediation have been introduced and critically reviewed in the context of decontaminating the soils.Next,biopolymerisation,biomineralisation and bioneutralisation processes have been depicted with a special emphasis on the applications including but not limited to soil stabilisation,soil erosion prevention,anti-desertification and pH neutralisation.Each of these methods have their own limitations and bottlenecks while scaling up,and these challenges have been summarised and some possible paths to overcome the challenges have also been discussed.The state of the art of electromagnetic(EM)monitoring methods to capture the effects of biomediation on spatio-temporal soil properties are then highlighted as a non-invasive and rapid pathway to track the progress of biomediated soil processes.Finally,each of the technologies discussed have been evaluated for their maturity level using the principles of technology readiness level(TRL).A majority of the technologies amounting to around 77%are still in the TRL 4e7,i.e.in the valley of death.It is thus evident that development of these technologies needs to be supported with appropriate funding for improving their maturity to a level of industrial deployment.

Roll profile electromagnetic control characteristics under roll heterogeneity

The electromagnetic control roll(ECR)and electromagnetic stick(ES)are the core elements and the main driving parts of roll profile electromagnetic control technology(RPECT).To prolong the service life,it is necessary to treat ECR and ES surfaces.According to the heterogeneous characteristics of surface treatments,the roll profile electromagnetic control characteristics were analyzed for different parameters.An electromagnetic-thermal-force coupled axisymmetric finite element model was built to explore the differences in performance as a result of several treatment strategies,and the model was verified by experimental results measured with a roll profile electromagnetic control experimental platform.This model was used to analyze the influence of the heterogeneity of ECR inner hole and ES on the roll crown,the roll profile,the average contact pressure,and the stress state during RPECT process.The results indicate that the heterogeneous layer at ECR inner hole has a restrictive effect on RPECT and that the heterogeneous layer of ES can enhance the profile control ability of RPECT.A reasonable configuration scheme between the heterogeneity of ECR inner hole and the ES can increase the life of ECR and maintain the control ability of RPECT.
