In order to design effective consensus tracking protocols for a more general class of networks, which are aimed at ensuring that the concerned states of agents converge to a constant or time-varying reference state, new consensus tracking protocols with a constant and time-varying reference state are proposed, respectively. Particularly, by contrast with spanning tree, an improved condition of switching interaction topology is presented. And then, convergence analysis of two consensus tracking protocols is provided by Lyapunov stability theory. Moreover, consensus tracking protocol with a time-varying reference state is extended to achieve the fbrmation control. By introducing formation structure set, each agent can gain its individual desired trajectory. Finally, several simulations are worked out to illustrate the effectiveness of theoretical results. The test results show that the states of agents can converge to a desired constant or time-varying reference state. In addition, by selecting appropriate structure set, agents can maintain the expected formation under random switching interaction topologies.展开更多

As interleaved radar pulses become more complex and denser, intelligent classification of radar signals has become very important. The self-organizing feature map(SOFM) is an excellent artificial neural network, which has huge advantages in intelligent classification of complex data. However, the de-interleaving process based on SOFM is faced with the problems that the initialization of the map size relies on prior information and the network topology cannot be adaptively adjusted. In this paper, an SOFM with self-adaptive network topology(SANT-SOFM) algorithm is proposed to solve the above problems. The SANT-SOFM algorithm first proposes an adaptive proliferation algorithm to adjust the map size, so that the initialization of the map size is no longer dependent on prior information but is gradually adjusted with the input data. Then,structural optimization algorithms are proposed to gradually optimize the topology of the SOFM network in the iterative process,constructing an optimal SANT. Finally, the optimized SOFM network is used for de-interleaving radar signals. Simulation results show that SANT-SOFM could get excellent performance in complex EW environments and the probability of getting the optimal map size is over 95% in the absence of priori information.展开更多

In this paper, we present a novel topology control and data forwarding mechanism called REMUDA, which is designed for a practical indoor parking lot management system. REMUDA forms a tree-based hierarchical network topology which brings as many nodes as possible to be leaf nodes and constructs a virtual cluster structure. Meanwhile, it takes the reliability, stability and path length into account in the tree construction process. Through an experiment in a network of 30 real sensor nodes, we evaluate the performance of REMUDA and compare it with LEPS which is also a practical routing protocol in TinyOS. Experiment results show that REMUDA can achieve better performance than LEPS.展开更多

Emphasis is laid on the topology and distributed routing algorithms for the DOLDL. On the basis of building an abstract model, a set of definitions and theorems are described and proved. An algorithm which can optimize the double loop networks is presented. The optimal values of the topologic parameters for the DOLDL have been obtained by the algorithm, and these numerical results are analyzed. The study shows that the bounds of the optimal diameter d and average hop distance a for this class of networks are [3N- 2]≤d≤[3N ] and (5N/9 (N-1))-(3N -1.8)<a<(5N/9(N-1)) (3N -0.9),respectively (N is the number of nodes in the network ). A class of the distributed routing algorithms for the DOLDL and the implementation procedure of an adaptive fault-tolerant algorithm are proposed and analyzed. The correctness of the algorithm has also been verified by simulating.展开更多

A coopera-tive guidance model is proposed, transforming the cooperative interception problem into a consensus problem based on the remaining flight time of the flight vehicles. First, the impact angle constraint is converted into the line of sight (LOS) angle con-straint, and a new fixed-time convergent non-singular terminal sliding surface is introduced, which resolves the singularity issue of the traditional sliding surfaces. With this approach, LOS angle rate and normal overloads can converge in fixed time, ensuring that the upper bound of the system convergence time is not affected by the initial value of the system. Furthermore, the maneuvering movement of the target is considered as a system disturbance, and an extended state observer is employed to estimate and compensate for it in the guidance law. Lastly, by applying consensus theory and distributed communication topology, the remaining flight time of each flight vehicle is syn-chronized to ensure that they intercept the target simulta-neously with different impact angles. Simulation experiments are conducted to validate the effectiveness of the proposed cooper-ative interception and guidance method.展开更多

文摘Double helix DNAs become intertwined around one another during replication and recombination.Here we used magnetic tweezers to make braided DNA molecules and measured their torques under various catenations(Ca)at forces ranging from 0.3 to 8 pN.Images of braided DNA constructs under tensions were captured by scanning electron microscopy which showed major and minor grooves of DNAs and plectonemes of the braids.When the two DNA molecules were braided,the extension decreased as the catenation increased from 0 to 50 turns.We used a thermodynamic Maxwell relation to deduce the torque by integrating the change in the braid extension as a function of the force.The torque increased with the catenation,force and intertether distance until the catenation reached a buckling point.Under the condition of 2 pN force and Ca=20,the torque was computed to be 31,21 and 15 pN nm for the braids of which the intertether distances were 54%,31%and 26%of the DNA contour length,respectively.At an 8.03 pN holding force,the torque was computed to be 76 pN nm as the catenation increased from 0 to 30 turns,or as the catenation density varied from 0 to 0.053.The torque reached a plateau when the catenation increased above 20,indicating formation of braid-plectonemes.The twist modulus increased with the catenation prior to reaching a peak.Before reaching the peak,the moduli were higher than those of a single twisted DNA under the same catenation and applied force.Our experimental data agrees well with the calculation results by a recently developed semiflexible polymer model.Our measurements of the nonlinear torque of the braid establish new fundamental properties of DNA intertwining,which is key to understanding DNA replication and gene expression.The speaker will also introduce briefly other projects in the Xiao group including direct measurements of theforce spectrum of single unlabeled proteins such as adhesive nano-fibers for biofilm,the screening of integrin-targeted peptides drugs by single cell approaches,and the micromechanical approach for determining the survival rate of stem cells.

文摘Material and structure made by additive manufacturing(AM)have received much attention lately due to their flexibility and ability to customize complex structures.This study first implements multiple objective topology optimization simulations based on a projectile perforation model,and a new topologic projectile is obtained.Then two types of 316L stainless steel projectiles(the solid and the topology)are printed in a selective laser melt(SLM)machine to evaluate the penetration performance of the projectiles by the ballistic test.The experiment results show that the dimensionless specific kinetic energy value of topologic projectiles is higher than that of solid projectiles,indicating the better penetration ability of the topologic projectiles.Finally,microscopic studies(scanning electron microscope and X-ray micro-CT)are performed on the remaining projectiles to investigate the failure mechanism of the internal structure of the topologic projectiles.An explicit dynamics simulation was also performed,and the failure locations of the residual topologic projectiles were in good agreement with the experimental results,which can better guide the design of new projectiles combining AM and topology optimization in the future.

文摘In wireless sensor networks, topology control plays an important role for data forwarding efficiency in the data gathering applications. In this paper, we present a novel topology control and data forwarding mechanism called REMUDA, which is designed for a practical indoor parking lot management system. REMUDA forms a tree-based hierarchical network topology which brings as many nodes as possible to be leaf nodes and constructs a virtual cluster structure. Meanwhile, it takes the reliability, stability and path length into account in the tree construction process. Through an experiment in a network of 30 real sensor nodes, we evaluate the performance of REMUDA and compare it with LEPS which is also a practical routing protocol in TinyOS. Experiment results show that REMUDA can achieve better performance than LEPS.
文摘A dist ributed optimal local double loop (DOLDL) network is presented. Emphasis is laid on the topology and distributed routing algorithms for the DOLDL. On the basis of building an abstract model, a set of definitions and theorems are described and proved. An algorithm which can optimize the double loop networks is presented. The optimal values of the topologic parameters for the DOLDL have been obtained by the algorithm, and these numerical results are analyzed. The study shows that the bounds of the optimal diameter d and average hop distance a for this class of networks are [3N- 2]≤d≤[3N ] and (5N/9 (N-1))-(3N -1.8)<a<(5N/9(N-1)) (3N -0.9),respectively (N is the number of nodes in the network ). A class of the distributed routing algorithms for the DOLDL and the implementation procedure of an adaptive fault-tolerant algorithm are proposed and analyzed. The correctness of the algorithm has also been verified by simulating.

文摘There are many motors in operation or on standby in nuclear power plants,and the startup of group motors will have a great impact on the voltage of the emergency bus.At present,there is no special or inexpensive software to solve this problem,and the experience of engineers is not accurate enough.Therefore,this paper developed a method and system for the startup calculation of group motors in nuclear power plants and proposed an automatic generation method of circuit topology in nuclear power plants.Each component in the topology was given its unique number,and the component class could be constructed according to its type and upper and lower connections.The subordination and topology relationship of switches,buses,and motors could be quickly generated by the program according to the component class,and the simplified direct power flow algorithm was used to calculate the power flow for the startup of group motors according to the above relationship.Then,whether the bus voltage is in the safe range and whether the voltage exceeds the limit during the startup of the group motor could be judged.The practical example was used to verify the effectiveness of the method.Compared with other professional software,the method has high efficiency and low cost.
文摘Two metal-organic frameworks(MOFs),trans-[Co(L)(μ_(2)-H_(2)O)(H_(2)O)2]·2H_(2)O(1)and cis-[Mn(L)(Bipy)](2)(H_(2)L=2,2'-dimethyl-4,4'-biphenyldicarboxylic acid,Bipy=4,4'-bipyridine),have been synthesized and character-ized by FTIR,thermogravimetric analysis(TGA),powder and single crystal X-ray diffraction.MOF 1 crystallizes in the triclinic system with a P1 space group and contains two crystallographically different Coions.Each trans-[CoO_(6)]octahedron is connected byμ_(2)-H_(2)O and L^(2-)ligand with a bis(unidentate)coordination mode to produce a 2D sql topological network.MOF 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic system with a C2/c space group.The Mncation adopts a cis-[MnO_(4)N_(2)]octahedron as a 6-connected node and is linked by L^(2-)ligand as a 4-connected node to gener-ate a binodal(4,6)-connected 3D fsc framework.The intermolecular interactions in 1 and 2 have been investigated by 3D Hirshfeld surface analyses and 2D fingerprint plots to reveal that the main interactions are H…H and O…H/H…O contacts in 1,and H…H and C…H/H…C contacts in 2.The TGA indicated that 1 and 2 were stable below 390 and 370℃,respectively.

文摘This paper presents a fixed-time cooperative gui-dance method with impact angle constraints for multiple flight vehicles (MFV) to address the challenges of intercepting large maneuvering targets with difficulty and low precision. A coopera-tive guidance model is proposed, transforming the cooperative interception problem into a consensus problem based on the remaining flight time of the flight vehicles. First, the impact angle constraint is converted into the line of sight (LOS) angle con-straint, and a new fixed-time convergent non-singular terminal sliding surface is introduced, which resolves the singularity issue of the traditional sliding surfaces. With this approach, LOS angle rate and normal overloads can converge in fixed time, ensuring that the upper bound of the system convergence time is not affected by the initial value of the system. Furthermore, the maneuvering movement of the target is considered as a system disturbance, and an extended state observer is employed to estimate and compensate for it in the guidance law. Lastly, by applying consensus theory and distributed communication topology, the remaining flight time of each flight vehicle is syn-chronized to ensure that they intercept the target simulta-neously with different impact angles. Simulation experiments are conducted to validate the effectiveness of the proposed cooper-ative interception and guidance method.
