The main objective is to ensure that the robot follows a desired trajectory despite the presence of uncertainties/disturbances and considering control input constraints. The approach is developed in the framework of continuous integral sliding modes. A saturated continuous integral sliding mode controller is used to achieve asymptotic tracking while sustaining input constraints. By suitably designing the sliding variable, the saturated continuous integral sliding mode controller can be expressed in a decoupled input-by-input form. As a result, asymptotic trajectory tracking is ensured, and compensation for uncertainties/disturbances within finite time. Additionally, simulations were carried out for nominal controllers under ideal conditions and in the presence of uncertainties/disturbances. The proposed saturated continuous integral sliding mode approach is compared against other continuous sliding mode control schemes, and their performance is compared using the root-mean-square value.

Since poachers have an interest in evading detection, robots are at risk of being hijacked and manipulated to behave antagonistically, for example, to prevent the correct surveillance of a group of animals in a certain area. While the detection of cyber-attacks on robots is commonly considered in the context of network activity and communication, this work focuses on the detection of anomalies that manifest in the robots' physical motion behavior. It builds upon our previous work, where a contextual data-driven anomaly detection method was proposed and applied to motions of a robot swarm monitoring a static area. Such data-driven, unsupervised methods for detecting anomalies in the physical behavior of robots are a suitable way of evading the need to define behavioral signatures or rules but only use information on the behavior of “normal,” cooperating robots, and the method proposed earlier demonstrated a strong performance both for recognizing normal robots and for the detection of a single antagonistic robot within a swarm monitoring a static area. Motivated by anti-poaching scenarios, this article goes beyond the earlier work by considering multiple antagonists and a dynamic scenario, where the robots monitor a continually changing area around a herd of animals and therefore do not converge to fixed, optimal positions as in a static scenario. The statistical evaluation shows that the anomaly detection method consistently yields a correct categorization of normal and antagonistic behavior, and that the method's performance is unaffected by an increased number of antagonistic robots in a swarm. Furthermore, the results indicate that, given the availability of a limited amount of new data, the method can be fine-tuned to efficiently adapt to new settings.</p>","PeriodicalId":60486,"journal":{"name":"国际机械系统动力学学报(英文)","volume":"6 1","pages":"22-32"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2026-04-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/msd2.70062","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147683212","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The experimental setup subjected a reduced-length fuel rod, supported at both ends by dimple-less grids, to forced sinusoidal excitation while immersed in water. The resulting frequency–amplitude curves, taken at different excitation amplitudes, exhibited an initial softening and then hardening behavior. This behavior is consistent with recent literature on reduced-length rods supported by traditional grids that feature both springs and dimples. Additionally, there was a nonlinear damping increase observed around the fundamental resonance frequency. To simulate the response to forced vibrations, a numerical model based on a single-degree-of-freedom nonlinear equation was employed. The model includes a Bouc–Wen stiffness term, quadratic and cubic stiffness terms, and an equivalent viscous damping which is a function of the vibration amplitude. Notably, when dimple-less grids were used, the resulting fuel rod vibrations exhibited greater damping compared with traditional grids. These findings contribute to our understanding of fuel rod behavior and provide insights for grid design. The interactions between fuel rods and spacer grids were also investigated using an experimental setup capable of measuring the force exchange and sliding relative motion at the interface of the fuel rods and spacer grids. The main conclusions from these tests indicate that the maximum amplitude of force and slippage at the boundary is directly related to the maximum amplitude of excitation and displacement experienced by rods. When dimple-less grids are used, lower amplitudes of interaction and sliding are reached. This reduction may be beneficial in mitigating fretting-related issues. Furthermore, in the time domain, evidence of detrimental phenomena—such as impacts and losses of contact—is also weaker with the novel Framatome dimple-less grid design.</p>","PeriodicalId":60486,"journal":{"name":"国际机械系统动力学学报(英文)","volume":"6 1","pages":"3-21"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2026-04-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/msd2.70058","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147683756","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This approach effectively handles uncertainties and changing road conditions without the need for direct estimation of unmeasurable variables such as tire-road friction and sideslip angle. The proposed output feedback control law consists of a stabilizer component to ensure finite-time stability, a compensator to eliminate the unknown function in the upper and lower layers, and an auxiliary tracking term. Key advantages of the proposed framework include: no requirement for additional sensors, finite-time convergence, reduced computational complexity compared to optimization-based methods, and the ability to perform finite-time stability analysis for the integrated closed-loop system.

Therefore, this paper mainly focuses on the rigid-elastic coupling dynamic modeling of morphing wing aircraft. Based on the virtual power principle, a floating coordinate system and the modal synthesis method are adopted to establish a rigid-elastic coupling dynamic model that accounts for the elasticity of the wings, which can accurately capture the cross-scale coupling effects between the rigid-body motion and the elastic deformation of the wings during the continuously morphing process. Considering the moving boundary problem between the fuselage and the wings during the continuously morphing process, a dynamic constraint modeling technique based on the Craig-Bampton method and a node's life and death technique describing the constraint states are proposed, which can avoid the complex operations of reestablishing the finite element model of the elastic bodies for traditional methods. Moreover, a method of smoothing model for the rigid–elastic coupling system is developed, which can significantly improve the computational efficiency for the dynamic equation of the morphing wing aircraft. And by changing the value of the smoothing factor, preservation of specific high-frequency components can be controlled.
