However, the nonlinear perturbations arising from position-dependent stiffness fluctuations, hysteresis, eddy, and flux leakage can significantly affect the control performance. To enhance the control performance of HRA-based systems in scanning motion, this paper introduces an adaptive feedforward method, known as the Chua operator-based Kalman feedforward compensator (COKFC), which aims to mitigate these nonlinear perturbations, with a PID controller serving as the central control element. In the COKFC approach, a Chua operator is employed to effectively capture the inverse hysteresis behavior. A Chua-based time-varying feedforward compensation model is then formulated to represent the inversion of the nonlinear perturbations inherent in the HRA. An improved Kalman filter is utilized for the real-time adaptation of the time-varying parameters within the feedforward compensation model. The design procedure for this control strategy is presented. Experimental evaluations are conducted on an HRA-based stage (HRA-BS), and comparisons are made between the proposed method and several advanced control methods.

A two-stage optimization scheme is designed by combining topology optimization (TO) and response surface methodology optimization (RSM). The topology optimization is employed to allocate the material distribution of the valve trims and provide the parameters for the response surface optimization, while the response surface methodology optimization conducts a further revision and optimization of the structural parameters of the valve trims. The results of the simulation experiments indicate that the maximum equivalent stress of the lightweight designed valve trims is reduced from 290.85 MPa to 99.88 MPa, and the maximum sealing-specific pressure of the sealing surface is reduced from 197.78 MPa to 77.83 MPa. Additionally, a novel approach is presented for assessing the sealing performance using the clearance of the fitting surface.

Extracting useful information from signals is a key factor for effective monitoring. Several studies in the areas of Informative Frequency Selection bands (IFB) and Feature Extraction/Selection have demonstrated the need to identify the bands of interest in vibration signals. However, typical methods in these areas focus on identifying bands where impulsive excitations are present or analyzing the relevance of features after signal extraction. Therefore, they do not focus on other regions that may be related to changes in the dynamic behavior of machines or faults. Furthermore, the methods generally require parameter adjustments and are not automatic. To overcome these problems, the present study proposes a new approach called Band Relevance Factor (BRF). BRF aims to perform an automatic selection of all relevant frequency bands for a vibration analysis of a rotating machine based on spectral entropy. In other words, automatically identify all frequency bands that are related to changes in the behavior of the machines or faults. The results are presented through a relevance ranking and can be visually analyzed through a heatmap.

For small time delay batch processes subject to deception attacks, an iterative learning robust security predictive tracking control approach is developed. Reviewing previous studies for iterative learning control, the issue that the repetitive character of the batch process would mask the characteristics of deception attacks was not considered. Moreover, the gains of iterative learning control law are utilized offline, which makes large deviations for the system state as the operating time increases. This will lead to \"excessive-input\" conditions for control inputs, which means more consumption of energy and production resources. To address these challenges, we introduce robust security invariant sets to improve the robustness of the system by constraining the system state to be in a safe range. Also, the design of the iterative learning controller incorporates deception attack data for historical batches, which is continuously improved and optimized to withstand deception attacks. Meanwhile, by calculating stability conditions online, the real-time control law gain is obtained, which could make the control inputs adjusted online based on the real-time system's dynamic characteristics, avoiding excessive inputs and improving the efficiency of energy and resource utilization.
