One of the primary issues encountered with existing methods is the susceptibility of trajectory tracking to uncertainties, which can significantly hinder the performance of robotic systems. To address these challenges, we propose an advanced control method, known as the Model-based proportional-derivative controller, or MPDP controller for short, which represents an innovative fusion of model-based PD control principles with a robust control algorithm. This amalgamation is driven by the need to mitigate the impact of uncertainties and external disturbances on trajectory tracking. A comprehensive assessment grounded in Lyapunov theory has been undertaken to validate the effectiveness of our approach. The analysis has firmly established that our method ensures not only the ultimate boundedness but also the uniform boundedness of the robotic system, which is critical for its operational stability. Both experimental and simulation studies have been meticulously conducted to benchmark the performance of the MPDP controller against the conventional proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller, which serves as a widely adopted baseline in the field. The results unequivocally demonstrate the superiority of the MPDP controller across multiple dimensions. It exhibits exceptional robustness, resulting in a smaller steady-state tracking error, a critical advantage when addressing inherent uncertainties and external disturbances that can perturb the robot system. This translates to a more stable trajectory tracking performance. Furthermore, the MPDP controller empowers the robot with the capability to precisely follow predefined trajectories, thus ensuring high-precision and reliable execution of tasks. This feature significantly contributes to an overall enhancement of system performance and productivity.","PeriodicalId":18526,"journal":{"name":"Measurement Science and Technology","volume":"26 20","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138955361","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"A rapid ray tracing method to evaluate the performances of ERA5 and MERRA2 in retrieving global tropospheric delay","authors":"Mingyuan Zhang, Peng Yuan, Weiping Jiang, Yong Zou, Wenlan Fan, Jian Wang","doi":"10.1088/1361-6501/ad1707","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6501/ad1707","url":null,"abstract":"\u0000 Atmospheric reanalysis plays an important role in retrieving the atmospheric tropospheric delays with ray tracing for space geodetic techniques. In order to represent the complex weather and climate conditions better, the spatiotemporal resolutions of the newly developed atmospheric reanalysis products are improved significantly. The increased spatiotemporal resolution provides a great opportunity to improve the accuracy of the tropospheric delays derived from ray tracing, but it remains a challenge due to the highly increased computation costs. In this paper, we develop a rapid ray tracing method with refined height interval determination to accommodate the increased spatiotemporal resolution of the atmospheric reanalysis products. The accuracy of this method was validated by the 2010 International Association of Geodesy (IAG) Working Group 4.3.3 ray tracing Comparison Campaign reference results. Zenith and slant delays were obtained by tracing 342 global International GNSS Service (IGS) stations. Compared to the traditional method, this reduced memory footprint by 16.1%, global refractivity field construction time by 13.6%, and per ray trace time by 22.5% while maintaining accuracy. Based on this methodology, ray tracing using state-of-the-art fifth-generation European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) Re-Analysis (ERA5) and second Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications (MERRA2) at 342 IGS stations assessed tropospheric delay performance in 2021. Results showed significant ERA5 and MERRA2 slant delay and mapping factor differences up to the decimeter level, especially for the wet component. Additionally, using IGS Zenith Total Delay (ZTD) as a reference, ERA5 ZTD bias and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) were 2.3 and 11.9 mm, versus that of 1.8 and 16.2 mm for MERRA2 ZTD. At extreme weather-affected AIRA stations over August 5-9, 2021, ERA5 ZTD mean and RMSE differences were -3.0 and 19.8 mm, and -5.3 and 21.7 mm for MERRA2 ZTD. Tropospheric delays and models derived from ERA5 can support space geodetic applications given improved performance and temporal resolution.","PeriodicalId":18526,"journal":{"name":"Measurement Science and Technology","volume":"5 20","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138959887","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on frequency-domain electromagnetic (FDEM) sounding theory, high-frequency measurement helps to improve vertical resolution. However, long grounded cable inductance produces severe reactive power suppression at high frequency transmission frequencies, which will reduce detection. To further improve detection accuracy and efficiency, a dual-frequency transmitter configuration is proposed in this article for shallow surface detection. The transmitter simultaneously powers two LC series resonant circuits for the detection of shallow and deep area. Dual-frequency control strategy is adopted, with both bridge arms being provided with constant switching frequency operation. According to the equivalent model of the transmission system, the control of the load branches is independent of each other. The LC series resonant circuit guarantees a wide passband to match long cable inductance that cannot be accurately estimated in advance. Simulations and experimental tests were carried out using this transmitter configuration and control technique. The simulation and experimental results are in general agreement, verifying the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed dual-band transmitter configuration.","PeriodicalId":18526,"journal":{"name":"Measurement Science and Technology","volume":" 17","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138961697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For the narrow butt joint, the positioning method by reconstructing the weld contour is not suitable for the welding of the narrow butt joint because it is difficult for the laser stripe to produce obvious deformation when projected to the weld. In this study, high-quality images with laser stripes and narrow butt joints are captured by the improved structured light vision sensor, which is equipped with an auxiliary light source. A two-step processing framework, including semantic segmentation and groove positioning, is raised to locate the feature point of the narrow butt joint. Firstly, we design the strip pooling ENet (SP-ENet), a real-time network specifically designed to accurately segment narrow weld images. Our proposed network outperforms other classical segmentation networks in terms of segmentation accuracy and proves to be highly suitable for the detection of narrow butt joint welds. Secondly, a combining method of random sample consensus (RANSAC) and iterative fitting to calculate the sub-pixel coordinates of weld feature points accurately. Finally, a trajectory smoothing model based on the Kalman filter is proposed to reduce the trajectory jitter. The above methods were tested on a self-built robotic welding experimental platform. Experimental results show that the proposed method can be used for real-time detection and positioning of narrow butt joints. The positioning trajectory is smooth, with most positioning errors less than 2 pixels. The mean tracking error reaches 0.207 mm, which can meet the practical welding requirements.","PeriodicalId":18526,"journal":{"name":"Measurement Science and Technology","volume":"48 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139174657","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among the different methods under exploration, sparse optimization-based techniques have arisen as a highly desirable approach. However, in real industrial environments, the collected bearing signals often contain a random impact component resulting from changes in working conditions and load mutations. When a machine malfunctions, it can readily induce and generate new faults, resulting in composite faults. To address this challenge, this paper proposes a novel multidimensional blind deconvolution method named fast nonlinear cross-sparse filtering (FNCr-SF). The FNCr-SF aims to separate weak compound faults under random impact interference. Various preprocessing techniques, including Z-score normalization and nonlinear sigmoid activation function, are employed to amplify the faint characteristics of compound faults and minimize the influence of random interference. Furthermore, the FNCr-SF method enables adaptive decomposition of fault components without the need for prior knowledge or pre-processing. This approach effectively reduces random interference and accurately detects compound faults in bearings. Experimental and simulation signals validate the effectiveness of the FNCr-SF method in compound fault detection, demonstrating its high accuracy and robustness.","PeriodicalId":18526,"journal":{"name":"Measurement Science and Technology","volume":"349 17‐18","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138966686","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
