基于小波去噪的神经网络软测量在血糖浓度估计中的应用

由于皮下间隙液葡萄糖的易测性和测量过程中传感器感染血液的低风险性, 皮下间隙液一直是血糖监测的首选位置. 但皮下间隙液葡萄糖浓度的变化总是滞后于血糖浓度的变化, 而且测量过程中会引入噪声, 不能准确地估测血糖值, 针对这一问题提出了一种基于小波去噪的神经网络软测量方法. 该方法先对与血糖相关的一些辅助变量进行去噪处理, 然后用来训练神经网络, 建立血糖软测量模型. 通过对1号、2号成年人采集的仿真数据进行实验, 结果表明, 运用该方法得到的测量结果比皮下间隙液葡萄糖值具有更小的均方根误差、更好的信噪比、以及更小的测量延时.     

Semi‐global and global containment control of multi‐agent systems with second‐order dynamics and input saturation

This paper considers both semi‐global and global containment control for a second‐order multi‐agent system that is composed by a network of identical harmonic oscillators or double integrators with multiple leaders and input saturation. A distributed low gain feedback algorithm is proposed to solve the semi‐global containment control problem for the network whose topology is directed and initial condition is taken from any a priori given bounded set. In particular, by using a parametric Lyapunov equation approach, M‐matrix properties and algebraic graph theory, an upper bound of the low gain parameter is estimated such that the low gain feedback matrix can be analytically determined without involving numerical computation. Furthermore, under the assumption that the induced subgraph formed by the followers is strongly connected and detail balanced, two linear feedback protocols are designed for coupled harmonic oscillators and coupled double integrators, respectively, to asymptotically achieve the global containment control of the network with any initial condition. Finally, numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Controller design and analysis for singularly perturbed switched systems with actuator saturation

This paper investigates the problems of controller design and stability analysis for singularly perturbed switched systems subject to actuator saturation. A set of well‐defined sufficient conditions for the existence of state feedback controllers is proposed, under which the closed‐loop system is locally asymptotically stable for arbitrary switching law as long as the singular perturbation parameter is sufficiently small. With the obtained controller, the estimation problem of stability bound and basin of attraction of the closed‐loop system is reduced to solving a convex optimization problem. A numerical example and a hydraulic servo position system are used to illustrate the obtained results. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Analysis of General Ideal Proportional Navigation Guidance Laws

In this work, the capture region of the general ideal proportional navigation guidance law is analyzed with the following constraints: (i) the target's input acceleration is subject to independent or magnitude saturation, and (ii) the missile's input acceleration is subject to magnitude saturation. In addition to the case of unbounded maneuverability of missile with or without knowing the target acceleration, the necessary and sufficient condition for a bounded maneuvering missile that captures a nonmaneuvering target is also derived. Furthermore, the conditions that result in zero impact velocity are discovered and discussed in some of the cases. The capture regions that cannot be obtained analytically are determined numerically by a powerful classifier, the least square support vector machines. To have the capture region ready for least square support vector machines, all the state variables are transformed into modified polar variables and non‐dimensionalized to reduce the number of independent variables. In order to make the implementation possible in real time, an approximation of the Gaussian radial basis function is adopted to obtain the corresponding nonlinear feature mapping function. Through numerous numerical experiments, the proposed technique is found to be adequate for storing the capture region in an onboard fire control computer.     

Semiglobal stabilization of saturated linear systems via multiple parametric Lyapunov equations

This paper investigates the problem of semiglobal stabilization with guaranteed flexible pole placement for saturated linear systems. To retain the advantages of the parametric Lyapunov equation, matrix‐partitioning idea is used to derive a new pole shift lemma. Starting from system matrix transformations, a recursive algorithm is proposed to shift every eigenvalue of a linear system separately without mode decomposition in each step. A new method introducing various parameters to every Lyapunov equation in each step is presented. As an application, the semiglobal stabilization with guaranteed flexible pole placement for saturated linear systems can be achieved by this method. Finally, its effectiveness and advantages are demonstrated via a simulation example. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

A Saturating Extension of an Output Feedback Controller for Internally Damped Euler‐Lagrange Systems

In this research, a novel extension of the passivity‐based output feedback trajectory tracking controller is developed for internally damped Euler‐Lagrange systems with input saturation. Compared with the previous output feedback controllers, this new design of a combined adaptive controller‐observer system will reduce the risk of actuator saturation effectively via generalized saturation functions. Semi‐global uniform ultimate boundedness stability of the tracking errors and state estimation errors is guaranteed by Lyapunov stability analysis. An application of the proposed saturated output feedback controller is the stabilization of a nonholonomic wheeled mobile robot with saturated actuators towards desired trajectories. Simulation results are provided to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed controller in dealing with the actuator saturation.     

Dynamic behavior of the discrete‐time double integrator with saturated locally stabilizing linear state feedback laws

The main contribution of this paper is to completely characterize the dynamic behavior of the discrete‐time double integrator with a saturated locally stabilizing linear state feedback law. In continuous‐time setting, any linear state feedback control law that locally stabilizes the double integrator also globally stabilizes the system in the presence of actuator saturation. In discrete‐time setting, the equivalent of the double integrator does not have the same property. In this paper, we completely characterize the global behavior of saturated locally stabilizing linear state feedback laws for the discrete‐time double integrator.

Spatial and functional relationships between air conduits and blood capillaries in the pulmonary gas exchange tissue of adult and developing chickens

The documented data regarding the three-dimensional structure of the air capillaries (ACs), the ultimate sites of gas exchange in the avian lung is contradictory. Further, the mode of gas exchange, described as cross-current has not been clearly elucidated. We studied the temporal and spatial arrangement of the terminal air conduits of the chicken lung and their relationship with the blood capillaries (BCs) in embryos as well as the definitive architecture in adults. Several visualization techniques that included corrosion casting, light microscopy as well as scanning and transmission electron microscopy were used. Two to six infundibulae extend from each atrium and give rise to numerous ACs that spread centrifugally. Majority of the ACs are tubular structures that give off branches, which anastomose with their neighboring cognates. Some ACs have globular shapes and a few are blind-ending tapering tubes. During inauguration, the luminal aspects of the ACs are characterized by numerous microvillus-like microplicae, which are formed during the complex processes of cell attenuation and canalization of the ACs. The parabronchial exchange BCs, initially inaugurated as disorganized meshworks, are reoriented via pillar formation to lie predominantly orthogonal to the long axes of the ACs. The remodeling of the retiform meshworks by intussusceptive angiogenesis essentially accomplishes a cross-current system at the gas exchange interface in the adults, where BCs form ring-like patterns around the ACs, thus establishing a cross-current system. Our findings clarify the mode of gas exchange in the parabronchial mantle and illuminate the basis for the functional efficiency of the avian lung.     

淮河流域水质污染时空变异特征分析

选取淮河流域的82个水质监测站,对各站点的1986—2005年水质监测数据进行统计分析,探讨了全流域内水体污染物浓度变化的时空变异特征,为淮河流域水污染治理、水环境保护以及生态修复提供依据。采用时间序列法分析水体污染物浓度的时间变化规律,应用Mann-Kendall检验法对流域范围内水体污染物浓度变化趋势进行了分析。研究结果表明,淮河流域水质变化主要受到入河排污量、上游来水量、闸坝调控方式以及气候条件等方面因素的影响。蚌埠站的水体污染物浓度多年变化规律表明,1995年是水体污染物浓度变化的转折点,1995年前水体污染物浓度不断恶化,1995年后水体污染物浓度逐渐好转。DO浓度的年内变化主要受到水温的影响,表现为冬季浓度高于夏季浓度;CODMn浓度同时受到闸坝调控方式以及区域来水量的影响,汛期浓度低于非汛期。从全流域的水体污染物浓度变化规律看,有机污染物浓度呈显著上升趋势的河段主要分布在淮北支流上,说明在20世纪90年代后期,虽然流域进入相对丰水期以及进行了大规模的水污染联防工作,淮河流域水质污染得到了一定程度的改善。但在2000年后,随着流域内入河污水量和污染物排放量的增加,淮河流域的水质污染依然严重。     

供水水质化学稳定性研究与设计

当水源水质碱度、硬度偏低,呈弱腐蚀性时,控制其水质化学稳定性的有效方法是再矿化工艺,再矿化工艺分两个步骤:①在混凝前先投加二氧化碳进行酸化,再投加石灰水进行中和,以提高碱度,且使pH处于混凝最佳值;②在滤后的主加氯后补加饱和石灰水,以保证出厂水水质稳定性。再矿化工艺能改善出厂水水质化学稳定性,提高供水水质和供水安全性,但运营成本较高。
