Aeroelastic Flutter and Sliding Mode Control of Wind Turbine Blade by Lin Chang, Yingjie Yu, Tingrui Liu

“…Through the construction of two controllers, modular combinatorial sliding mode controller and sliding mode controller based on LMI for parameterized design suppress blade aeroelastic flutter. The results show that a better control effect can be achieved on the premise of the design of the precise parameters of the controller: the proposed sliding mode control algorithm based on LMI can effectively act on the aeroelastic system of the blade, significantly reduce the vibration frequency, and make the aeroelastic system converge to an acceptable static difference in a short time, which proves the effectiveness of sliding mode control in suppressing high-frequency vibration under high wind speed.…”

RESEARCH ON STRESS SPECTRUM GROUPING METHOD OF HIGH SPEED EMU BOGIE by CHEN DaoYun, LIU DeKun, SUN ShouGuang, LI Qiang

“…The determination of structural dynamic stress spectrum is of great significance in the structural fatigue strength evaluation as well as reliability design.To evaluate structure of fatigue strength accurately,stress history on fatigue key parts of motor bogie framework was obtained through dynamic stress test of high-speed EMU on actual operation line.Fatigue damage values per kilometer of stress spectra with different grouping numbers were calculated using equidistant grouping method and Palmgren-Miner linear cumulative damage theory.Then,the effect of different group number on fatigue damage was analyzed.The results show that when the grouping number is small,it can lead to deviation of fatigue damage.As the grouping number increasing,damage decreasing,and tends to the theoretical value.This phenomenon can be interpreted by the EMU framework dynamic stress characteristic of small stress cycles high concentration.Meanwhile,an unequal distance grouping method was presented which is applicable to framework structure stress spectrum.The study can provide the basis for framework structure design.…”

Data poisoning attack detection approach for quality of service aware cloud API recommender system by Zhen CHEN, Wenchao QI, Taiyu BAO, Limin SHEN

“…To solve the problem that existing studies usually assumed that the QoS data of cloud API recommender system was reliable, ignoring the data poisoning attack on cloud API recommender system by malicious users in open network environment, a data poisoning attack detection approach based on multi-feature fusion was proposed.Firstly, a user connected network graph was constructed based on the designed similarity function, and users’ neighborhood features were captured using Node2vec.Secondly, sparse auto-encoder was used to mine user QoS deep feature, and user interpretation feature based on QoS data weighted average deviation was designed.Furthermore, a fake user detection model based on support vector machine was established by integrating user neighborhood feature, QoS deep feature, and interpretation feature, the model parameters were learned using grid search and alternating iterative optimization strategy to complete fake user detection.Finally, the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed approach were verified through extensive experiments, realizing the poison attack defense against QoS aware cloud API recommender system at the data side.…”

Regression Analysis of Initial Geostress Field for Deep-Buried Tunnel of Water Resources Allocation Project in Guangdong Province around the Beibu Gulf by DAI Zhikun, ZHENG Xiao, YOU Siqin

“…Geostress has important influence on the surrounding rock of the deep-buried tunnel during its construction.Accurately identifying the initial geostress of the engineering area can effectively guide the design and construction of the tunnel.In order to study the distribution of initial geostress in the deeply buried tunnel area of water resources allocation project in Guangdong Province around the Beibu Gulf,a three-dimensional geological model was established via the finite difference software FLAC^3D,by reference to the geoengineering conditions and measured data on geostress,with the relevant analysis and calculation conducted under the separate effects of each factor concerning the initial geostress field.And the a multiple regression model between measured and calculated values was established to work out the optimal regression coefficient through multiple regression analysis,thus obtaining the regression equation of geostress.By comparing the regression values and the measured values,it is found that the magnitude and direction of the two values are close to each other,indicating that the initial geostress field established by regression analysis is reasonable and can provide effective basic data for subsequent evaluation of the stability of surrounding rock of the tunnel,support design and long-term safety evaluation and prediction.…”
