To solve this problem, this paper proposes an adaptive evidence reasoning (AER) rule that can adjust weights according to different times and working conditions. The AER rule has two unique features: adaptive weight operation under time division and adaptive weight operation under working-condition division, which are used to solve the problem of dynamic weight adjustment under different times and working conditions. The CMA-ES algorithm is used to optimize the model parameters. Two case studies of performance degradation assessment are established to prove the advantage of the AER rule: a computer numerical control experiment and a simulation experiment of turbofan aeroengine.

Although data-driven RUL prediction methods have received considerable attention, they typically require massive run-to-failure (R2F) data which is often unavailable in practice. If not properly addressed, training with a limited number of R2F trajectories not only leads to large errors in RUL prediction, but also causes difficulty in quantifying the prediction uncertainty. To address the above challenge, this paper proposes a Bayesian ensemble RUL prediction method that combines mode-dependent relevance vector machine (RVM) and trajectory similarity. Firstly, the proposed approach clusters historical R2F trajectories of unequal lengths into different degradation modes, and constructs RVM and similarity based predictions with improved accuracy by using mode-dependent libraries of kernel functions and similar trajectories. Secondly, the proposed Bayesian ensemble scheme fuses the RVM and similarity based predictions, and quantifies the associated prediction uncertainty even though the number of historical R2F trajectories are limited. In two case studies involving bearings and batteries, using only 11 and 16 R2F trajectories as training data, respectively, the proposed method reduces the mean absolute percentage error of RUL prediction by more than 20% compared to three existing methods.</p>","PeriodicalId":94059,"journal":{"name":"ISA transactions","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142690102","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, influenced by external disturbances, UGV systems encounter challenges in meeting specific performance requirements, such as no overshoot and minimized chattering. In current sliding mode control (SMC) methods with disturbance observer (DOB), there still exists a serious chattering problem. To achieve fast chattering reduction and accurate path-following performance, this paper proposes a novel composite fixed-time sliding mode (CFTSM) control method according to fixed-time disturbance observer (FTDO). First, a innovative CFTSM control scheme is developed to achieve a significant gain near the origin in the UGV system. It facilitates quicker convergence and improved tracking performance than other SMC methods. Then, to mitigate the impact of the external disturbances, a FTDO is designed to estimate and effectively eliminate these disturbances in fixed-time. Finally, a composite control strategy, which integrated the FTDO into the CFTSM control scheme, is proposed to stabilize the UGV system and suppress the chattering phenomenon. A comprehensive simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed CFTSM-FTDO control strategy performs better with strong robustness and stability. In real experiments, the CFTSM achieves RMSE reductions of 26.8% and 8.9% in lateral and heading errors compared to CFTSM-FFE, and 19.1% and 3.9% compared to FTSMC-AESO.
