This paper presents a novel flexible tactile sensor structure and proposes an efficient decoupling algorithm for the tactile sensor. Firstly, structure of the sensor model is introduced, and the sensing mechanism of the sensor array based on force-sensitive conductive rubber is analyzed. Then the mapping relation between the resistances of conductive pillars and the three-dimensional force is deduced. After that, the force applied on the tactile sensor is decoupled from the resistance information by the improved Back Propagation Neural Network (BPNN) algorithm with the number of hidden layer nodes optimized. The flexible tactile sensor model achieves the decomposition of the three-dimensional information from the structure with its unique design, avoids the direct interference between electrodes of the sensor array, reduces the structural complexity and the nonlinear degree, improves the decoupling accuracy, and accelerates the decoupling rate.

As the quality of yarn and the fiber indicators are nonlinear relationship, the traditional mathematical models or empirical formula has been unable to accurately resolve the problem. In view of artificial neural networks do not need to build accurate mathematical models, applicable to solving the problem of yarn quality prediction. In this paper, good nonlinear approximation ability of BP (Back Propagation) neural network be used, the use of neural network toolbox of MATLAB functions for modeling, good results was obtained. Prediction model set a hidden layer, using three-tier network architecture, and take the input layer 4 nodes, hidden layer 8 nodes and output layer 2 nodes. According to forecast results, can ensure the yarn quality effectively, use of raw materials rationally, to achieve optimal distribution of cotton.

In this paper, trajectory control of arbitrary shape mandrel in three-dimensional circular braiding is studied. To obtain accurate trajectory, offset of mandrel is predicted and compensated for trajectory of mandrel. Firstly, the equation of the force of all yarns on three-dimensional mandrel is given. Then offset of mandrel in single layer braiding machine is analyzed via finite element software. Learning these data via back propagation neural network algorithm, offset of mandrel at each moment is derived. The trajectory generation of three-dimensional mandrel based on offset compensation by roll pitch yaw transformation is given. Lastly, braiding angle for the mandrel is analyzed theoretically. In the practical engineering, this method is proven to effectively reduce the error of braiding angle and helpful for the precise control of the trajectory of arbitrary shape mandrel.

In this work, a back propagation artificial neural network (BP-ANN) model is conducted to predict the flow behaviors of high-Nb TiAl (TNB) alloys during high temperature deformation. The inputs of the neural network are deformation temperature, log strain rate and strain whereas flow stress is the output. There is a single hidden layer with 7 neutrons in the network, and the weights and bias of the network were optimized by Genetic Algorithm (GA). The comparison result suggests a very good correlation between experimental and predicted data. Besides, the non-experimental flow stress predicted by the network is shown to be in good agreement with the results calculated by three dimensional interpolation, which confirmed a good generalization capability of the proposed network.

AbstractCrataegi Fructus (CF) is widely used as a medicinal and edible material around the world. Currently, different types of processed CF products are commonly found in the market. Quality evaluation of them mainly relies on chemical content determination, which is time and money consuming. To rapidly and nondestructively discriminate different types of processed CF products, an electronic nose coupled with chemometrics was developed. The odour detection method of CF was first established by single-factor investigation. Then, the sensor array was optimised by a stepwise discriminant analysis (SDA) and analysis of variance (ANOVA). Based on the best-optimised sensor array, the digital and mode standard were established, realizing the odour quality control of samples. Meanwhile, mathematical prediction models including the discriminant formula and back-propagation neural network (BPNN) model exhibited good evaluation with a high accuracy rate. These results suggest that the developed electronic nose system could be an alternative way for evaluating the odour of different types of processed CF products.

This paper presents an optimization method for the design of the layout of an autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV) fleet to minimize the drag force. The layout of the AUV fleet is defined by two nondimensional parameters. Firstly, three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations are performed on the fleets with different layout parameters and detailed information on the hydrodynamic forces and flow structures around the AUVs is obtained. Then, based on the CFD data, a back-propagation neural network (BPNN) method is used to describe the relationship between the layout parameters and the drag of the fleet. Finally, a genetic algorithm (GA) is chosen to obtain the optimal layout parameters which correspond to the minimum drag. The optimization results show that (1) the total drag of the AUV fleet can be reduced by 12% when the follower AUV is located directly behind the leader AUV and (2) the drag of the follower AUV can be reduced by 66% when it is by the side of the leader AUV.
