一种改进的动态核主元分析故障检测方法

针对复杂工业系统动态非线性故障检测过程精度低和计算量大的问题,提出了一种改进的动态核主元分析故障检测方法，该方法首先利用不可区分度剔除相关程度较小或者不相关变量,减少数据量，然后通过观测值扩展对筛选后的新数据构建增广矩阵，并对矩阵使用核主元分析提取变量数据的非线性空间相关特征，最后通过监测T ²和SPE 两种统计量诊断出系统发生故障及识别故障变量。仿真实验证明，该方法能对风力发电机故障进行有效监测和诊断，与KPCA方法相比，改进的动态核主元分析方法对微小故障更为敏感。     

A comprehensive approach to evaluating watershed models for predicting river flow regimes critical to downstream ecosystem services

Selection of strategies that help reduce riverine inputs requires numerical models that accurately quantify hydrologic processes. While numerous models exist, information on how to evaluate and select the most robust models is limited. Toward this end, we developed a comprehensive approach that helps evaluate watershed models in their ability to simulate flow regimes critical to downstream ecosystem services. We demonstrated the method using the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT), the Hydrological Simulation Program–FORTRAN (HSPF) model, and Distributed Large Basin Runoff Model (DLBRM) applied to the Maumee River Basin (USA). The approach helped in identifying that each model simulated flows within acceptable ranges. However, each was limited in its ability to simulate flows triggered by extreme weather events, owing to algorithms not being optimized for such events and mismatched physiographic watershed conditions. Ultimately, we found HSPF to best predict river flow, whereas SWAT offered the most flexibility for evaluating agricultural management practices.

Thermooxidative degradation of natural rubber/clay composite

The clay is treated with a reducing agent and an acid so as to obtain a clay containing various metal components with a variable‐valence state. Then, the clay is coprecipitated with natural rubber (NR) latex to prepare a vulcanized NR/clay composite. The degradation process of the NR/clay composite under hot air condition was studied dynamically by using a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer attaching an in situ sample cell and was also investigated using the TGA method. The test result obtained from the infrared spectrometry indicated that under low decomposition temperature, the decomposition products of the test samples mainly are ethylene, low molecular olefinic hydrocarbon, and carbonyl compounds. As the decomposition temperature rises, the low molecular olefinic hydrocarbon content decreases, the olefine with longer chain is formed, and a lot of alkane decomposition products are formed at the same time. When the content of the metal components with a variable‐valence state in clay such as Cu, Mn, Co, and Fe increases, the oxidation products containing the carbonyl group, the olefinic hydrocarbon, and CO₂ in the decomposition product of the test sample also increase. The TGA result clearly shows a shoulder peak that appears by the side of the main peak on the DTG curve of NR/clay composite. With the increase in the content of metal components with variable‐valence state in clay, the initial degradation temperature of the test sample (T₀), the degradation peak temperature (T_p1), and the final degradation temperature (T_f1) in first‐stage reaction, as well as the degradation peak temperature (T_p2) and the last final degradation temperature (T_f) in second‐stage reaction of all the test samples more or less shift to the direction of low temperature; besides, the activation energy (E) of the reaction of the test samples more or less decreases. This means that the metal components with variable‐valence state promote the oxidative degradation of the clay–rubber masterbatch. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Robust Unknown Input Observer Design for Linear Uncertain Time Delay Systems with Application to Fault Detection

In this paper, a novel approach is proposed to design a robust fault detection observer for uncertain linear time delay systems. The system is composed of both norm‐bounded uncertainties and exogenous signals (noise, disturbance, and fault) which are considered to be unknown. The main contribution of this paper is to present unknown input observer (UIO)‐based fault detection system which shows the maximum sensitivity to fault signals and the minimum sensitivity to other signals. Since the system contains uncertainty terms, an H_∞ model‐matching approach is used in design procedure. The reference residual signal generator system is designed so that the fault signal has maximum sensitivity while the exogenous signals have minimum sensitivity on the residual signal. Then, the fault detection system is designed by minimizing the estimation error between the reference residual signal and the UIO residual signal in the sense of H_∞ norm. A sufficient condition for the existence of such a filter is exploited in terms of certain linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Application of the proposed method in a numerical example and an engineering process are simulated to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. Simulation results show the validity of the proposed approach to detect the occurrence of faults in the presence of modeling errors, disturbances, and noise.     

Dielectric Properties and Relaxation in (1−x)BiScO3–xBa(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3 Solid Solutions

The dielectric properties and frequency dispersion associated with a dielectric relaxation were evaluated within the perovskite (1− x )BiScO₃– x Ba(Mg_1/3Nb_2/3)O₃ solid solution systems (0.7 ≤ x ≤ 1). With increasing BiScO₃, the room-temperature dielectric permittivity at low frequency (100 Hz) increased up to 115 at x = 0.7, and a dielectric relaxation phenomenon was evident. Relaxation parameters were analyzed using several Arrhenius-type equations, and the microwave dielectric property measurement using rectangular wave-guide method enabled confirmation of the extrapolated value of the Arrhenius plot. The result of the microwave dielectric property measurement was also checked with J -function fitting based on the frequency-dependent Gaussian distribution of the associated dielectric loss data at low frequency.
