Abstract: The automatic operation of Xiangtan Q‐type gate is based on hydraulic pressure only. As the upstream water rises above the top of gate, the gate opens automatically to safeguard the banks against flood. As the water level ...

Abstract: Direct inverse analysis of faults in machinery systems such as gears using first principle is intrinsically difficult, owing to the multiple time- and length-scales involved in vibration modeling. As such, data-driven ...

Abstract: Finite element model (FEM) is a broadly used numerical tool in structural damage detection. In such applications, damage parameters in FEM are estimated by minimizing the differences between experimental modal analysis ...

Abstract: This paper presents an L1 adaptive controller for pressure control using an engine bleed valve in an aircraft air management system (AMS). The air management system is composed of two pressure-regulating bleed valves, a ...

Abstract: The dynamic stability of a high-spinning liquid-filled rotor with both internal and external damping effects involved in is investigated in this paper. First, in the case of the rotor subjected ...

Abstract: An adaptive general predictive control using optimally scheduled multiple models (OSMM-GPC) is presented for improving the load-following capability and economic profits of the system of parallel-coursing ...

Abstract: A fracture-grouting test section is a 7.1-m-high homogeneous dam of compacted silty clay on a foundation of the same material. Four test holes with different depths and lengths of casing are drilled at the dam crest along ...
