Interval analysis of mode shapes to identify damage in beam structures

Various damage detection methods have been proposed by several researchers in the past few decades. Amongst them, the efficiency of mode shapes in detecting damage has been demonstrated by many researchers when further processed. In most cases, the processing involves expansion or reduction of the mode shape data. However, vital information that are damage-prints are often lost during processing of the mode shape data. In addition, most of these processes involve long and complex computation, thus, leading to inaccurate damage identification. In this study, a simple and fast damage identification technique is proposed to identify damage in beam structures. Interval analysis is applied to the mode shapes of a beam structure in the damaged and undamaged states. The interval situations of each of the beam's segment via mode shape are derived to obtain the upper and lower bounds and the derived bounds are compared. To establish a relationship for identify the damaged point, a possibility of damage existence is defined for each segment of the beam structure. The mode shape increment is defined as the increase in the mode shape value. Furthermore, a damage measure index that provide enhance damage information is obtained as the product of the possibility of damage existence and mode shape increment. A numerical model of a simply supported steel beam is applied to demonstrate this method by imposing damage through thickness reduction of elements in segments. In addition, a parametric analysis is carried out to evaluate noise effect by considering varying damage severities and different noise levels. The results showed that this method is simple and provides considerable accurate results.

Assessment of the prevalence of Streptococcus uberis in dairy cow feces and implications for herd health

Streptococcus uberis is a major causative agent of bovine mastitis worldwide, negatively affecting both milk production and animal welfare. Mammary infections result from environmental reservoirs, with cattle themselves required to propagate the infection cycle. Two longitudinal studies were performed to investigate the prevalence of Streptococcus uberis within feces and to evaluate factors which may affect gastrointestinal carriage. Bacterial detection was confirmed using a PCR-based method directed against sub0888 that detected S. uberis at an analytical sensitivity of 12 cfu/g of bovine feces. The first study sampled an entire herd at 8-wk intervals, over a 10-mo period and identified that maintenance of S. uberis within the dairy cow environment was due to a high proportion of animals shedding S. uberis and not due to a low number of “super-shedding” cows within the herd. Seasonality influenced detection rates, with detection levels significantly higher for housed cattle compared with those at pasture. Multilevel logistic regression was used to identify significant factors that affected S. uberis detection; these included parity, stage of lactation, and body condition score. An additional study involved screening a smaller cohort of cows housed over a 4-wk period and identified an increased probability of detection if cows were housed in loose straw yards, compared those in straw cubicles. This study highlighted several cow and management related factors that affect both detection of S. uberis and future infection risks.     

Employing one-step coupling cold plasma and thermal polymerization approach to construct nitrogen defect-rich carbon nitrides toward efficient visible-light-driven hydrogen generation

Construction of structural defects in photocatalysts is a powerful tool for regulating their photocatalytic performance. In this work, we develop a facile one-step coupling cold plasma and thermal polymerization approach to synthesize a series of nitrogen defect-rich graphitic carbon nitrides (C₃N_4-x), which are used for visible-light-driven hydrogen generation from water. The nitrogen defect-induced band structure regulation of C₃N_4-x catalysts can be carried out through controlling the bombardment time and excitation power of generator during the plasma modification process. The defective C₃N_4-x catalysts have the extended visible light absorption and improved separation efficiency of photogenerated charge carriers, which results in the boosted hydrogen generation activity. Particularly, the optimal C₃N_4-x possesses a hydrogen generation rate of 2.46 mmol h^?1 g^?1, which is about 4.5 times higher than the pristine C₃N₄ synthesized by the single thermal polymerization of urea. The cold plasma modification-based one-step synthesis approach guides us for rationally designing defective nanomaterials with excellent catalytic performance.

Dynamic load-altering attack detection based on adaptive fading Kalman filter in power systems

This paper presents an effective and feasible method for detecting dynamic load-altering attacks (D-LAAs) in a smart grid. First, a smart grid discrete system model is established in view of D-LAAs. Second, an adaptive fading Kalman filter (AFKF) is designed for estimating the state of the smart grid. The AFKF can completely filter out the Gaussian noise of the power system, and obtain a more accurate state change curve (including consideration of the attack). A Euclidean distance ratio detection algorithm based on the AFKF is proposed for detecting D-LAAs. Amplifying imperceptible D-LAAs through the new Euclidean distance ratio improves the D-LAA detection sensitivity, especially for very weak D-LAA attacks. Finally, the feasibility and effectiveness of the Euclidean distance ratio detection algorithm are verified based on simulations.     

A robust locating multi-optima approach for damage identification of plate-like structures

This paper proposes a robust optimization approach for multiple damage identification of plate-like structures. Different from traditional particle swarm optimizations (PSOs), a combined PSO and niche technique (NPSO) is proposed to solve multimodal optimization problems, with the full consideration of subswarm creation, merging and absorbing mechanism. As a hypersensitive parameter to damage, the curvature mode shape is adopted to construct the objective function. Case studies are conducted to investigate the effectiveness and robustness of the algorithm on multi-damage identification. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm exhibits robust search performance on identifying damage locations accurately with good convergence behavior. It is hoped that this study can provide guidance on robust damage detection, especially when the structure is subject to multiple damages and external disturbances.
