Similar to multi-link mechanical presses, a servo mechanical press tends to grow in size as the tonnage increases that calls for larger, heavy duty servo motors, which could be expensive and may not even be available. In this paper, a new concept of servo mechanical press with redundant actuation is proposed firstly using two servo motors driving one input shaft, i.e. one-point-two-motor mode that makes it possible to produce a larger press with available servomotors.

A bounded feasible solution space is constructed for dimensional synthesis based on non-dimensional link lengths and assembly conditions. The performance atlases are depicted over the bounded feasible solution space that lead to a visual solution of the punching mechanism with global optimization. Finally, case studies are given to illustrate the design method with visual global optimization, and a prototype with 200 t punching force is being developed in our laboratory to demonstrate efficacy of the new concept for servo mechanical press.

The former is excessively sensitive to parameters, which makes adjustment difficult; and the latter treats the motion planning as general task by ignoring the particularity, which has good universal property but reduces the solving speed for on-line real-time planning. In this paper, a novel stepwise solution based on self-motion manifold is proposed for motion planning of redundant manipulators, namely, the chief tasks and secondary tasks are implemented step by step. Firstly, the posture tracking of end-effector is achieved accurately by employing the non-redundant joint. Secondly, the end-effector is set to keep stationary. Finally, self-motion of manipulator is realized via additional work on the gradient of redundant joint displacement. To verify this solution, experiments of round obstacle avoiding are carried out via the planar 3 degree-of-~eedom manipulator. And the experimental results indicate that this motion planning algorithm can effectively achieve obstacle avoiding and posture tracking of the end-effector. Compared with traditional gradient projection method, this approach can accelerate the problem-solving process, and is more applicable to obstacle avoiding and other additional work in displacement level.展开更多

For the shortcomings and deficiencies of the frame-subtraction method, a redundant discrete wavelet transform (RDWT) based moving object recognition algorithm is put forward, which directly detects moving objects in the redundant discrete wavelet transform domain.

The n...The solution of tension distributions is infinite for cable-driven parallel manipulators(CDPMs) with redundant cables. A rapid optimization method for determining the optimal tension distribution is presented. The new optimization method is primarily based on the geometry properties of a polyhedron and convex analysis. The computational efficiency of the optimization method is improved by the designed projection algorithm, and a fast algorithm is proposed to determine which two of the lines are intersected at the optimal point. Moreover, a method for avoiding the operating point on the lower tension limit is developed. Simulation experiments are implemented on a six degree-of-freedom(6-DOF) CDPM with eight cables, and the results indicate that the new method is one order of magnitude faster than the standard simplex method. The optimal distribution of tension distribution is thus rapidly established on real-time by the proposed method.展开更多

First, the correlations between frequency channels are of prime importance for speaker recognition. Some of these correlations are lost when the frequency domain is divided into sub-bands. Consequently we propose a particularly redundant parallel architecture for which most of the correlations are kept. Second, generally a log transformation used to modify the power spectrum is done after the filter-bank in the classical spectrum calculation. We will see that performing this transformation before the filter bank is more interesting in our case. In the processing of recognition, the Gaussian mixture model (GMM) recognition arithmetic is adopted. Experiments on speech corrupted by noise show a better adaptability of this approach in noisy environments, comoared with a conventional device, esoeciallv when oruning of some recognizers is performed.展开更多

Firstly three fault-tolerant indexes, reduced condition number, sudden change of relative joint velocity and centrality are proposed, which can comprehensively evaluate the kinematical performance of a redundant robot during its entire fault-tolerant operations. Then, the influence of the initial postures of robot's end-effector on these fault-tolerant indexes is analyzed with a planar robot and a spatial robot. Simulation results show that for a given task the joint trajectory with the best comprehensive effect of fault tolerance can be determined by optimizing the initial posture of a robot.展开更多

According to the system analysis method, the general modeling data structure of spares support echelon and system indenture is established, and the mission success probability is taken as the optimization target to build the dynamic optimization model of carrying spares during the process of multi-phase. By introducing the Lagrange multiplier, the spares weight, volume and cost are transformed to the single target of the spares total scale, and the initial Lagrange factors and its dynamic adjustment policy is proposed. In a given example, the main influence factors of the carrying spares project are analyzed, and the study results are in accordance with the reality, which can provide a new approach to mission-oriented carrying spares optimization for the redundant system.

文摘The current motion planning approaches for redundant manipulators mainly includes two categories: improved gradient-projection method and some other efficiency numerical methods. The former is excessively sensitive to parameters, which makes adjustment difficult; and the latter treats the motion planning as general task by ignoring the particularity, which has good universal property but reduces the solving speed for on-line real-time planning. In this paper, a novel stepwise solution based on self-motion manifold is proposed for motion planning of redundant manipulators, namely, the chief tasks and secondary tasks are implemented step by step. Firstly, the posture tracking of end-effector is achieved accurately by employing the non-redundant joint. Secondly, the end-effector is set to keep stationary. Finally, self-motion of manipulator is realized via additional work on the gradient of redundant joint displacement. To verify this solution, experiments of round obstacle avoiding are carried out via the planar 3 degree-of-~eedom manipulator. And the experimental results indicate that this motion planning algorithm can effectively achieve obstacle avoiding and posture tracking of the end-effector. Compared with traditional gradient projection method, this approach can accelerate the problem-solving process, and is more applicable to obstacle avoiding and other additional work in displacement level.

文摘Redundant technology plays an important role in improving the reliability and fault-tolerance of the airborne avionics systems. A Markov state transition model is introduced to the reliability analysis of the redundant inertial navigation system (RINS) in airborne navigation systems. An information processing mechanism based on difference filtering is put forward to strengthen the consistency between the outputs of the equal-precision inertial navigation system (INS). On this basis, the homologous fault monitoring algorithm is designed to realize the homologous fault monitoring of RINS. The simulation is carried out based on the above algorithms, and the results verify the effectiveness of the proposed fault monitoring algorithm based on difference filtering. Research results have good reference value for the configuration and design of RINS in airborne integrated avionics systems.
文摘A method for moving object recognition and tracking in the intelligent traffic monitoring system is presented. For the shortcomings and deficiencies of the frame-subtraction method, a redundant discrete wavelet transform (RDWT) based moving object recognition algorithm is put forward, which directly detects moving objects in the redundant discrete wavelet transform domain. An improved adaptive mean-shift algorithm is used to track the moving object in the follow up frames. Experimental results show that the algorithm can effectively extract the moving object, even though the object is similar to the background, and the results are better than the traditional frame-subtraction method. The object tracking is accurate without the impact of changes in the size of the object. Therefore the algorithm has a certain practical value and prospect.

文摘The solution of tension distributions is infinite for cable-driven parallel manipulators(CDPMs) with redundant cables. A rapid optimization method for determining the optimal tension distribution is presented. The new optimization method is primarily based on the geometry properties of a polyhedron and convex analysis. The computational efficiency of the optimization method is improved by the designed projection algorithm, and a fast algorithm is proposed to determine which two of the lines are intersected at the optimal point. Moreover, a method for avoiding the operating point on the lower tension limit is developed. Simulation experiments are implemented on a six degree-of-freedom(6-DOF) CDPM with eight cables, and the results indicate that the new method is one order of magnitude faster than the standard simplex method. The optimal distribution of tension distribution is thus rapidly established on real-time by the proposed method.
文摘An entropy-based approach is applied to identify redundant wells in thenetwork. In the process of this research, groundwater-monitoring network is considered as acommunication system with a capability to transfer information, and monitoring wells are taken asinformation receivers. The concepts of entropy and mutual information are then applied to measurethe information content of individual monitoring well and information relationship betweenmonitoring well pairs. The efficiency of information transfer among monitoring wells is the basis tojudge the redundancy in the network. And the capacity of the monitoring wells to provideinformation on groundwater is the point of evaluation to identify redundant monitoring wells. Thisapproach is demonstrated using the data from a regional-scale ground-water network in Hebei plain,China The result shows that the entropy-based method is recommendable in optimizing groundwaternetworks, especially for those within media of higher heterogeneities and ani-sotropies.

文摘In this paper, we propose two kinds of modifications in speaker recognition. First, the correlations between frequency channels are of prime importance for speaker recognition. Some of these correlations are lost when the frequency domain is divided into sub-bands. Consequently we propose a particularly redundant parallel architecture for which most of the correlations are kept. Second, generally a log transformation used to modify the power spectrum is done after the filter-bank in the classical spectrum calculation. We will see that performing this transformation before the filter bank is more interesting in our case. In the processing of recognition, the Gaussian mixture model (GMM) recognition arithmetic is adopted. Experiments on speech corrupted by noise show a better adaptability of this approach in noisy environments, comoared with a conventional device, esoeciallv when oruning of some recognizers is performed.

文摘When a redundant robot performs a fault-tolerant operation for locked joint failures, its fault tolerant properties should include dexterity and sudden change of joint velocity at the moment of locking failed joints and the dexterity during the post-failure. Firstly three fault-tolerant indexes, reduced condition number, sudden change of relative joint velocity and centrality are proposed, which can comprehensively evaluate the kinematical performance of a redundant robot during its entire fault-tolerant operations. Then, the influence of the initial postures of robot's end-effector on these fault-tolerant indexes is analyzed with a planar robot and a spatial robot. Simulation results show that for a given task the joint trajectory with the best comprehensive effect of fault tolerance can be determined by optimizing the initial posture of a robot.

文摘A super redundant serpentine manipulator has slender structure and multiple degrees of freedom.It can travel through narrow spaces and move in complex spaces.This manipulator is composed of many modules that can form different lengths of robot arms for different application sites.The increase in degrees of freedom causes the inverse kinematics of redundant manipulator to be typical and immensely increases the calculation load in the joint space.This paper presents an integrated optimization method to solve the path planning for obstacle avoidance and discrete trajectory tracking of a super redundant manipulator.In this integrated optimization,path planning is established on a Bezier curve,and particle swarm optimization is adopted to adjust the control points of the Bezier curve with the kinematic constraints of manipulator.A feasible obstacle avoidance path is obtained along with a discrete trajectory tracking by using a follow-the-leader strategy.The relative distance between each two discrete path points is limited to reduce the fitting error of the connecting rigid links to the smooth curve.Simulation results show that this integrated optimization method can rapidly search for the appropriate trajectory to guide the manipulator in obtaining the target while achieving obstacle avoidance and meeting joint constraints.The proposed algorithm is suitable for 3D space obstacle avoidance and multitarget path tracking.
