Model uncertainty is an important factor negatively affecting prediction performance. Existing methods fail to evaluate the predictive ability of a degradation model without the actual remaining useful life, and typically require adequate degradation data or prior information. They may be unable to ensure a reliable prediction performance in practical engineering scenarios with limited degradation data and mechanism knowledge. To address these issues, a model fusion based method is proposed using the uncertainty theory. Specifically, a comprehensive model performance evaluation method is proposed by simultaneously considering complexity, fitting ability, and predictive ability. The evolution process of the comprehensive model performance index is modelled by proposing a generalized arithmetic Liu process model that can flexibly depict characteristics of an uncertain process. A model fusion method is proposed by quantifying the similarity between a candidate model and the actual degradation process based on the predictive evolution analysis of the performance index. Then, a random initial solutions based algorithm is proposed to estimate remaining useful life from the fused model.

Therefore, a novel latent model-free adaptive control is proposed to deal with the high-dimension and collinearity problem of process variables in real-world industries. First, a nonlinear autoregressive moving average with exogenous input model is designed as a dynamical partial least squares inner relationship in the latent space to formulate the system input and output dynamics in a most common way. Then, a latent full-form dynamic linearization is developed to make the nonlinear model linearly parametric and a latent full-form dynamic linearization based virtual dynamical partial least squares data model is proposed consequently. An estimation algorithm is developed for identifying the unknown parameters of the virtual dynamical data model. By means of the virtual dynamical data model, the latent model-free adaptive control method is proposed by designing and optimizing a quadratic objective function.

Unfortunately, the inability of the traditional finite element method-boundary element method to deal with the reflected sound from waveguide boundaries limits their application in the optimization design of piezoelectric structures submerged in shallow seas. In addition, previous piezoelectric structure layouts designed for specific working conditions cannot realize online control of acoustic radiation for diverse working conditions in engineering practice. Therefore, a novel topological layout-design scheme for control switches of piezoelectric curved shell structures to bring down acoustic radiation in a shallow sea is proposed based on the velocity feedback control scheme and the combined method of the FEM, the added mass method (AM) and the image method-based boundary element method (I-BEM), which can handle the fluid-structure interaction and boundary sound reflection problems. A finite element formulation for the piezoelectric curved shell element is presented. In this context, the sensitivity analysis equation for sound pressure level is derived. The optimization problem is formulated in the framework of an artificial active damping model with penalization.

Mechanical properties of the beam are obtained based on the modified Halpin–Tsai micromechanical model that is well-established experimentally and presented in the literature. Variational Euler–Lagrange equations of motion were derived based on assumptions of Reddy's shear deformation theory and linear Green–Lagrange strain tensor. Moreover, physical neutral surface properties were used to formulate the boundary value problem for unsymmetric nanocomposite laminates correctly. In addition, graphene platelet and crack distribution move neutral surface position in nanocomposite layers. Numerical results are obtained via the Fourier series method and by solving nonlinear multi-parametric characteristic equations. Before a complete numerical investigation, an example validation study of the obtained solution was performed. The results addressed how several layers, diverse elliptical matrix crack patterns, density, graphene nanoplatelets distribution, and weight fraction influence bending and shear stress distribution, critical axial forces, and beam bending under diverse loads. One exception where results for the first and last three layers with cracks do not overlap is FG-V distribution with nonsymmetric material properties for the midplane. Based on the study, in the case of nanofiller-reinforced nanocomposite with 21 layers, three cracked layers hardly influence bending behaviour and stress distribution.
