The viability of measuring the thickness of non-conductive layer and conductive layer is verified by Comsol finite element simulation. The traditional eddy current method can measure the thickness of non-conductive layer. The analytical model of laminated structure can fit the thickness of conductive layer by measuring impedance.

The aircraft Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) is taken as a typical complex electro-mechanical object. Two-dimensional condition monitoring samples of the aircraft APU contain the potential degradation information, which bring difficulty for formulating an accurate and stable RUL prediction model. First, its two-dimension condition monitoring samples are augmented by the improved CGAN. Then, the augmented samples and the original samples are both utilized as the input of the RUL prediction method. Through comparison experiments on a practical sample set, the effectiveness of the proposed method is evaluated by different RUL prediction methods and combinations of samples.","PeriodicalId":396735,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Sensing, Measurement & Data Analytics in the era of Artificial Intelligence (ICSMD)","volume":"125 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123084684","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the traditional parameter identification method of BTT signal depends on the prior. The existing sparse regularization method underestimates the reconstructed signal amplitude and has low computational efficiency. This paper resorts to an accelerated algorithm for BTT identification parameters based on generalized minimax-concave (GMC) sparse regularization to accurately and quickly identify amplitude and frequency parameters from undersampled signals. For amplitude underestimation, the non-convex GMC penalty is introduced so that the sparsity of the estimation is improved, and the convexity of the cost function is preserved. Moreover, Nesterov's accelerated iterative computation strategy is resorted to rapidly improving the convergence performance of obtaining the global optimum. The simulation results show that by reconstructing the BTT signal, the presented parameter identification algorithm based on accelerated generalized minimax-concave (AGMC) improves the computational rate with the inherited merits of accuracy.","PeriodicalId":396735,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Sensing, Measurement & Data Analytics in the era of Artificial Intelligence (ICSMD)","volume":"111 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117227197","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we adopt the phonon crystals plate as mechanical filter to eliminate the influence of the inherent nonlinear high harmonic. The metamaterial unit cell contains the PLA mass block and connective layer that can be fabricated by 3D printing. A strong resonance effect occurs between the mass block and Lamb waves and a stop band is opened due to the local resonance mechanism. On the contrary, the connective layer is used to make the array into single unit. Dispersion and transmission curves are calculated to analyze the bandgap theoretically. The experiments on the aluminum plate are carried out to verify the bandgap transmission and the elimination of inherent nonlinear high harmonic influence. The results show that phonon crystals can effectively suppress the influence of the inherent nonlinear harmonics and have great potential in simple, automatable, and accurate nonlinear ultrasound structural health monitoring and nondestructive testing applications.","PeriodicalId":396735,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Sensing, Measurement & Data Analytics in the era of Artificial Intelligence (ICSMD)","volume":"78 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125015077","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Because flyback converters are so crucial to the industrial world, it is crucial to assure their continuous and secure operation. A fault detection method based on CCA is suggested to efficiently identify a fault state for dual-output flyback converters. Firstly, both outputs voltage of the dual-output flyback converter are collected and then mean-centered. CCA is used to maximize the corelationship between the dual outputs. The residual matrix was constructed according to the correlation between the two outputs obtained by CCA. Then, a statistic is used to evaluate the residual matrix. Finally, calculate the corresponding threshold. The proposed method for detecting faults focuses on the correlation between the outputs, making it possible to identify faults with minimally abnormal characteristics. Fault detection in time can avoid further losses.

Nonetheless, the None-IID(independent and identically distributed) issue radicated in acquired data severely limits the stability and accuracy of compound fault diagnosis of rolling bearings. This paper proposes a sample augmentation method for generating simulated signals based on the concept of counterfactuals. Firstly, disentangled representations and counterfactual faithful theory are applied to classify the original signal into two categories of properties. One is the fault semantics encoded from the original vibration signal. And the other is the sample attribute encoded by the encoder of Variational Autoencoders (VAEs). Secondly, the counterfactual faithful pseudo-samples are conjured through the Generative Adversarial Network(GAN) using the seeds of the “factual” sample attributes and “counterfactual” fault semantics to compensate for the drawback of distribution shift. Finally, the original samples and pseudo-samples are used as the CNN classifier dataset to realize bearing fault diagnosis. Experiments show that this method can generate counterfactual signals that are highly consistent with the original data distribution and can achieve better classification accuracy after balancing the dataset.","PeriodicalId":396735,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Sensing, Measurement & Data Analytics in the era of Artificial Intelligence (ICSMD)","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126932463","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, a UAV object detection method called Mob-YOLO is proposed. Based on the high-performance model YOLOv4, MobileNetv2, a lightweight convolutional neural network, is used to replace the original YOLOv4 backbone CSPDarknet53 for model size reduction and computing operation simplification. Meanwhile, to solve the issue of poor accuracy for small UAV objects after network replacement, this work also designs a multi-scale feature extraction and fusion branch to expand the receptive field of the object detector by multi-scale feature fusion. The proposed method is evaluated using a self-built UAV dataset.
