Yu-hui XU,Jun-qing SHU,Ya SONG,Yu ZHENG,Tang-bin XIA
Journal of ZheJiang University (Engineering Science)    2021, 55 (10): 1937-1947.   DOI: 10.3785/j.issn.1008-973X.2021.10.016
Abstract   HTML PDF (1382KB) ( 630 )  

A novel method based on health index similarity in multiple time scales with autoencoder (AE MTS-HI) was proposed aiming at the shortage of the traditional similarity-based method in extracting health index and similarity matching. Autoencoder was applied to construct the health index based on monitoring data, which can minimize the loss of nonlinear information. The health index in multiple time scales was developed for similarity matching by considering the fluctuation of the length of test degradation trajectories. The method can remove the accuracy limitation caused by fixed time scales and enhance the prediction robustness. Performance of the proposed method was evaluated on public turbofan engines datasets. Results demonstrate that the method can improve the remaining useful life (RUL) prediction accuracy and provide stable support for predictive maintenance.

Journal of ZheJiang University (Engineering Science)    2021, 55 (6): 1056-1064.   DOI: 10.3785/j.issn.1008.973X.2021.06.005
Abstract   HTML PDF (1014KB) ( 588 )  

A front multi-vehicle target tracking algorithm optimized by DeepSort was proposed in order to improve the awareness of autonomous vehicles to the surrounding environment. Gaussian YOLO v3 model was adopted as the front-end target detector, and training was based on DarkNet-53 backbone network. Gaussian YOLO v3-Vehicle, a detector specially designed for vehicles was obtained, which improved the vehicle detection accuracy by 3%. The augmented VeRi data set was proposed to conduct the re-recognition pre-training in order to overcome the shortcomings that the traditional pre-training model doesn't target vehicles. A new loss function combining the central loss function and the cross entropy loss function was proposed, which can make the target features extracted by the network become better in-class aggregation and inter-class resolution. Actual road videos in different environments were collected in the test part, and CLEAR MOT evaluation index was used for performance evaluation. Results showed a 1% increase in tracking accuracy and a 4% reduction in identity switching times compared with the benchmark DeepSort YOLO v3.

Abstract   HTML PDF (1276KB) ( 531 )  

The data is easy to be tampered and the access control of data is not flexible in the Internet of Vehicles (IoV). A secure data sharing scheme based on blockchain and ciphertext-policy weighted attribute-based encryption was proposed aming at the above problem. In this scheme, roadside units jointly maintain the generation, verification and storage blocks to achieve distributed storage of data, which ensures the data from being tampered. Attribute-based access control ensures that only authorized entities can access the content of data on the blockchian. A hierarchical access policy formulation method based on multi-attribute was proposed to reduce the complexity of access control policy aiming at the data sharing requirements among the multiple entities and roles in the IoV, by mining the association of attributes in the roles for data access. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme can realize the secure storage and flexible access control of the data in the IoV, and the hierarchical access policy formulation method can effectively reduce the calculation and transmission overhead of vehicles, and meet the access requirements of multiple entities and roles in the IoV.

Zi-shuo WANG,Hao TANG,Yu LIU
Journal of ZheJiang University (Engineering Science)    2021, 55 (10): 2002-2012.   DOI: 10.3785/j.issn.1008-973X.2021.10.023
Abstract   HTML PDF (2053KB) ( 356 )  

The full-coverage film cooling was analyzed for the high temperature area on combustor in order to prolong the service life of the micro gas turbine combustor. The effects of arrangements and outer ring expansion film holes on the film cooling and the overall performance of combustor were compared under the actual conditions based on the test of KJ-66 micro gas turbine. Results showed that the average overall cooling efficiency of the order arrangement was lower than that of the cross arrangement in the actual micro gas turbine model, but the comprehensive cooling effect was higher. The film cooling effect was gradually improved as the outlet diameter of expansion holes increased, but the uniformity of temperature distribution at the combustor outlet was decreased. The secondary flow into the mainstream was deflected due to the influence of the cooling holes at the back of the combustor, which can improve the effects of film cooling. The full-coverage film cooling has a good cooling effect on the combustor wall under actual combustion conditions. Expansion film holes can effectively improve the film cooling effects of the combustor outer ring.

Abstract   HTML PDF (2150KB) ( 328 )  

Aiming at the problem that the Coulomb and viscous friction model cannot really reflect the nonlinear characteristics of friction in the process of robot motion, an improved Stribeck friction model was used to describe the joint friction, and a method of model parameter identification based on the combination of hybrid genetic algorithm and cosine trajectory was proposed. First, different cosine trajectories were used to excite the robot joints, and the friction torque of the joints was determined using the known dynamic equations of the robot, so as to establish the mapping relationship between the robot joint velocity and the joint friction torque. Second, the simulated annealing hybrid genetic algorithm was used to identify the friction parameters. Finally, a multi-joint series robot was used as the research object, and the friction parameter identification experiments were carried out to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method. Experimental results indicate that compared with the traditional Coulomb and viscous friction model, the improved Stribeck friction model can reduce the calculation error of the joint torque by 17.7% to 33.6%, and can further improve the accuracy of the robot dynamic model.

Yu-guo NI,Hao ZHOU,Shi-hao HU
Journal of ZheJiang University (Engineering Science)    2021, 55 (7): 1361-1367.   DOI: 10.3785/j.issn.1008-973X.2021.07.015
Abstract   HTML PDF (1664KB) ( 307 )  

By simulating the atmosphere of NH4Cl in coal-fired power plants, the rules that how NH4Cl caused ash deposition to affect the heat flux density of the heat-transfer surfaces were studied. A drop tube furnace system was used to simulate the boiler tail flue, an oil circulation system for temperature control, a probe system for ash deposition, the temperature inside and outside of the probe was monitored in real time to obtain the heat flux density on the probe surface. NaOH, Mg(OH)2, and Ca(OH)2 were used as additives to study the removing effect of three alkaline hydroxides on NH4Cl in the flue gas. Results showed that NH4Cl had a weak adhesion ability to ash, and the decrease in heat flux density on the heat-transfer surface was mainly caused by the deposition of NH4Cl. Among the three additives, Ca(OH)2 could narrow the decrease of heat flux density on the top of the probe, reducing the ratio of the decrease to 3.61%, while NaOH could narrow the decrease of the heat flux density at the bottom of the probe, reducing the ratio of the decrease to 6.46%. Although Mg(OH)2 could reduce the decrease of the heat flux density at the top of the probe, it would enlarge the decrease of the heat flux density at the bottom of the probe.

Journal of ZheJiang University (Engineering Science)    2021, 55 (9): 1788-1794.   DOI: 10.3785/j.issn.1008-973X.2021.09.021
Abstract   HTML PDF (966KB) ( 307 )  

An algorithm of fractional frequency phase locked loop (PLL) output signal phase synchronization was proposed, in order to realize the phase synchronization of PLL on multiple transceiver chips or a single transceiver chip in a multi-channel radio frequency (RF) communication system. A selection algorithm of sampling points for phase accumulation was designed. The sampling points selected by the algorithm were used to accumulate the triangulation results of PLL’s output signal under sampled by reference clock and reference signal generated by NC oscillator (NCO), so as to eliminate the high-order harmonic component and reduce the error of the phase difference calculation result effectively. According to the size of the phase difference, the fractional frequency ratio of the input of delta-sigma modulator (DSM) in PLL was adjusted by feedback, so that the phase of PLL output signal was adjusted linearly, and the phase synchronization of multiple PLL output signals with reference signal was realized. The correctness of the algorithm is verified by simulation, and the phase error is 0.35 ° after the final phase synchronization, and the time required to complete the synchronization is 210 ms.

Influence of pavement unidirectional constraint on aircraft vibration response
Dao-sheng LING,Wen-jun SHENG,Bo HUANG,Yun ZHAO
Journal of ZheJiang University (Engineering Science)    2021, 55 (9): 1684-1693.   DOI: 10.3785/j.issn.1008-973X.2021.09.010
Abstract   HTML PDF (1802KB) ( 302 )  

A six-degree-of-freedom model of the aircraft with unidirectional constraint on pavement was established based on the B737-800 aircraft. The simulation calculation of aircraft taxiing were carried out on the pavement with single and stochastic uneven excitation respectively. Results show that, under the single uneven excitation input, the vibration response of the aircraft no longer changes monotonously with the wavelength and amplitude of the pavement deformation and the aircraft taxiing speed but the deformation model of the pavement, which is significantly different from that without considering the unidirectional constraint of pavement. The sensitive band of different taxiing speed is not the same. Under the stochastic uneven excitation input, the time when the wheels disengage from the pavement increases with the deterioration of pavement roughness. When the international roughness index of pavement is 3 m/km and the aircraft taxis at a speed of more than 70 m/s, and the taxing distance of the wheel separated from the pavement accounts for more than 1/4. The main frequency of the aircraft vibration response becomes lower, and the high-frequency vibration is greatly attenuated, and the vibration energy is concentrated to lower frequency. Between the two indexes for evaluating the roughness of pavement, the vertical maximum acceleration of the aircraft’s center of mass increases compared with that without considering the unidirectional constraint, while the root mean square of the vertical acceleration decreases because the downward acceleration response is weakened by the departure of the wheels from the pavement.

Abstract   HTML PDF (1142KB) ( 265 )  

The forecast ability of the conceptual model was evaluated by the lag and route method to solve the selection problem of appropriate forecast lead time for both black box and conceptual models with hourly time scale. With the same forecast lead time, the flood forecasting was carried out by using the Xin'an jiang model, soil moisture accounting and routing (SMAR) model, back propagation (BP) neural network and Elman neural network and the performance was analyzed according to the set pair analysis method. The forecast ability of the conceptual models was relatively stable in specific watersheds and was corresponding to the size of the watershed. According to the lag and route method, the forecast lead time values for Jinhua and Longquan watersheds were 7 hours and 3 hours, respectively. Results indicated that the BP model and the Elman model produced the best and the worst performance, respectively, for flood forecasting in Longquan basin under the same forecast lead time. Moreover, the Xin'an jiang model and the SMAR model produced the best and the worst performance, respectively, for flood forecasting in Jinhua basin.
