Many camera calibration methods have been proposed, but they cannot consider precision and operation complexity at the same time. In this paper, a new technique is proposed to calibrate camera. Firstly, the global calibration method is described in de-tail. It requires the camera to observe a checkerboard pattern shown at a few different orientations. The checkerboard corners are obtained by Harris algorithm. With direct linear transformation and non-linear optimal algorithm, the global calibration pa-rameters are obtained. Then, a sub-regional method is proposed. Those corners are divided into two groups, middle corners and edge corners, which are used to calibrate the corresponding area to get two sets of calibration parameters. Finally, some experimental images are used to test the proposed method. Experimental results demonstrate that the average projection error of sub-region method is decreased at least 16% compared with the global calibration method. The proposed technique is simple and accurate. It is suitable for the industrial computer vision measurement.展开更多

Considering the difficulties in the current measurement system such as complicated calibration process,cumbersome aided-instruments,strict limitation of working distance, this paper carries out an optical method in which two high-speed cameras with variable-zoom lenses are adopted as binocular stereo sensors of measurement system and a high-ac-curacy 3D target with fast reconstruction is designed. The intrinsic parameters of the sensors and the relative positions between coordinate systems are solved by the method of colinearity constrained optimization algorithm.

Most importantly, the severe working distance limitation between sensors and measured body is solved, enhancing the adaptability of measurement system to environment. Experimental results show that when the sensors are in the range of 8 -16 m away from the measured body, system accuracy can reach up to ±0. 5 mm, which meets the requirements to measure the dynamic envelope curve of high-speed vehicle.展开更多

文摘In practical engineering,only pressure sensors are allowed to install to detect leakage in most of oil transportation pipelines,while flowmeters are only installed at the toll ports.For incompressible fluid,the leakage rate and amount cannot be accurately calculated through critical pressure conditions.In this paper,a micro-element body of the pipeline was intercepted for calculation.The relationship between radial displacement and pressure of pipe wall was studied based on the stress-strain equation.Then,the strain response of pipeline volume with pipeline pressure was obtained.The change in volume expansion of pipeline was used to characterize leakage of incompressible fluid.Finally,the calculation model of leakage amount of incompressible fluid was obtained.To verify the above theory,the pipeline expansion model under pressure was established by COMSOL software for simulation.Both simulation results and deduction equations show that the volumetric change has a quadratic parabolic relationship with the change of pipeline pressure.However,the relationship between them can be approximately linear when the pressure change is not too large.In addition,the leakage of incompressible fluid under the pressure of 0 MPa-0.8 MPa was obtained by experiments.The experimental results verify the linear relationship between leakage of incompressible fluid and the change of pipeline pressure.The theoretical and experimental results provide a basis for the calculation of leakage of incompressible fluid in the pipeline.

文摘The net buoyancy of the deep-sea self-holding intelligent buoy(DSIB)will change with depth due to pressure hull deformation in the deep submergence process.The net buoyancy changes will affect the hovering performance of the DSIB.To make the DSIB have better resistance to the external disturbances caused by the net buoyancy and water resistance,a depth controller was designed to improve the depth positioning based on the active disturbance rejection control(ADRC).Firstly,a dynamic model was established based on the motion analysis of the DSIB.In addition,the extended state observer(ESO)and nonlinear state error feedback controller were designed based on the Lyapunov stability principle.Finally,semi-physical simulations for the depth control process were made by using the ADRC depth controller and traditional PID depth controller,respectively.The results of the semi-physical simulations indicate that the depth controller based on the ADRC can achieve the predefined depth control under the external disturbances.Compared with the traditional PID depth controller,the overshoot of the ADRC depth controller is 1.74%,and the depth error is within 0.5%.It not only has a better control capability to restrain the overshoot and shock caused by the external disturbances,but also can improve intelligence of the DSIB under the depth tracking task.

文摘To improve the prediction accuracy of micro-electromechanical systems(MEMS)gyroscope random drift series,a multi-scale prediction model based on empirical mode decomposition(EMD)and support vector regression(SVR)is proposed.Firstly,EMD is employed to decompose the raw drift series into a finite number of intrinsic mode functions(IMFs)with the frequency descending successively.Secondly,according to the time-frequency characteristic of each IMF,the corresponding SVR prediction model is established based on phase space reconstruction.Finally,the prediction results are obtained by adding up the prediction results of all IMFs with equal weight.The experimental results demonstrate the validity of the proposed model in random drift prediction of MEMS gyroscope.Compared with a single SVR model,the proposed model has higher prediction precision,which can provide the basis for drift error compensation of MEMS gyroscope.

文摘Light pen coordinate measuring system(LPCMS)is a kind of portable coordinate measuring technique based on vision metrology.In classical LPCMS,the measuring range is limited to the camera’s field of view.To overcome this defect,a new LPCMS is designed in this paper to fulfil whole space coordinate measurement.The camera is installed on a turntable instead of a tripod,so that the camera can rotate to track the movement of the light pen.The new system can be applied to large scale onsite measurement,and therefore it notably extends the application of LPCMS.To guarantee the accuracy of the new system,a method to calibrate the parameters of the tracking turntable is also proposed.Fixing the light pen at a stationary position,and changing the azimuth angles of the turntable’s two shafts,so that the camera can capture the images of the light pen from different view angles.According to the invariant spatial relationship between the camera and the pedestal of the tracking turntable,a system of nonlinear equations can be established to solve the parameters of the turntable.Experimental results show that the whole space coordinate measuring accuracy of the new system can reach 0.25 mm within 10 m.It can be concluded that the newly designed system can significantly expand the measuring range of LPCMS without losing too much accuracy.

文摘High-speed vehicle dynamic envelope curve is defined as the maximum limit outline affected by a variety of adverse factors while the train is running. Considering the difficulties in the current measurement system such as complicated calibration process,cumbersome aided-instruments,strict limitation of working distance, this paper carries out an optical method in which two high-speed cameras with variable-zoom lenses are adopted as binocular stereo sensors of measurement system and a high-ac-curacy 3D target with fast reconstruction is designed. The intrinsic parameters of the sensors and the relative positions between coordinate systems are solved by the method of colinearity constrained optimization algorithm. The calibration process is easy to operate and the device is also of portability. Most importantly, the severe working distance limitation between sensors and measured body is solved, enhancing the adaptability of measurement system to environment. Experimental results show that when the sensors are in the range of 8 -16 m away from the measured body, system accuracy can reach up to ±0. 5 mm, which meets the requirements to measure the dynamic envelope curve of high-speed vehicle.

文摘Aiming at the deficiency of diagnosis method based on vibration signal,a novel method based on speed signal with singular value decomposition and Hilbert transform(SVD-HT)is proposed.The fault diagnosis mechanism based on the speed signal is obtained by constructing the shaft misalignment fault model firstly.Then the SVD-HT method is applied to the processing of the speed signal.The accuracy of the SVD-HT method is verified by comparing the diagnosis results of the order spectrum method and the SVD-HT method.After that,the diagnosis results based on vibration signal and speed signal under no-load and load patterns are compared.Under the no-load pattern,the amplitudes of the speed signal components f_(r),2f_(r) and 4f_(r) are linear with the misalignment.In addition,under the load pattern,the amplitudes of the speed signal components f_(r),2f_(r) and 4f_(r) have a linear relationship with the load.However,the diagnosis result of the vibration signal does not have the above characteristics.The comparison results verify the robustness and reliability of the speed signal and SVD-HT method.The method presented in this paper provides a novel way for misalignment fault diagnosis.
