Spinning Projectile

The article establishes a seven-degree-of-freedom projectile trajectory model for a new type of spinning projectile. Based on this model, a numerical analysis is performed on the ballistic characteristics of the projectile, and the trajectory of the dual-spinning projectile is filtered with the unscented Kalman filter algorithm, so that the measurement information of projectile onboard equipment is more accurate and more reliable measurement data are provided for the guidance system. The numerical simulation indicates that the dual-spinning projectile is mainly different from the traditional spinning projectile in that a degree of freedom is added in the direction of the axis of the projectile, the forebody of the projectile spins at a low speed or even holds still to improve the control precision of the projectile control system, while the afterbody spins at a high speed maintaining the gyroscopic stability of the projectile. The trajectory filtering performed according to the unscented Kalman filter algorithm can improve the accuracy of measurement data and eliminate the measurement error effectively, so as to obtain more accurate and reliable measurement data.

Inverse Heat Conduction Problems

The inverse heat conduction problems (IHCP) analysis method provides a promising approach for acquiring the thermal physical properties of materials, the boundary conditions and the initial conditions from the known temperature measurement data, where the efficiency of the inversion algorithms plays a crucial role in real applications. In this paper, an inversion model that simultaneously utilizes the process evolution information of the objects to be estimated and the measurement information is proposed. The original IHCP is formulated into a state-space problem, and the unscented Kalman filter (UKF) method is developed for solving the proposed inversion model. The implementation of the proposed method does not require the gradient vector, the Jacobian matrix or the Hessian matrix, and thus the computational complexity is decreased. Numerical simulations are implemented to evaluate the feasibility of the proposed algorithm. For the cases simulated in this paper, satisfactory results are obtained, which indicates that the proposed algorithm is successful in solving the IHCP.

Increase In Accuracy

Abstract Filtering is a subset of a more general probabilistic estimation scheme for estimating the unobserved parameters from the observed measurements. For nonlinear, high speed applications, the extended Kalman filter (EKF) and the unscented Kalman filter (UKF) are common estimators; however, expensive and strongly nonlinear forward models remain a challenge. In this paper, a novel Kalman filtering algorithm for nonlinear systems is developed, where the numerical approximation is achieved via a change of measure. The accuracy is identical in the linear case and superior in two nonlinear test problems: a challenging 1D benchmarking problem and a 4D structural health monitoring problem. This increase in accuracy is achieved without the need for tuning parameters, rather relying on a more complete approximation of the underlying distributions than the Unscented Transform. In addition, when expensive forward models are used, we achieve a significant reduction in computational cost without resorting to model approximation.

Accuracy And Stability

An improved UKF (Unscented Kalman Filter) algorithm is proposed to solve the problem of radar azimuth mutation. Since the radar azimuth angle will restart to count after each revolution of the radar, and when the aircraft just passes the abrupt angle change, the radar observation measurement will have a sudden change, which has serious consequences and is solved by the proposed novel UKF based on SVD. In order to improve the tracking accuracy and stability of the radar tracking system further, the SVD-MUKF (Singular Value Decomposition-based Memory Unscented Kalman Filter) based on multiple memory fading is constructed. Furthermore, several simulation results show that the SVD-MUKF algorithm proposed in this paper is better than the SVD-UKF (Singular Value Decomposition of Unscented Kalman Filter) algorithm and classical UKF algorithm in accuracy and stability. Last but not the least, the SVD-MUKF can achieve stable tracking of targets even in the case of angle mutation.

System identification refers to the process of building or improving mathematical models of dynamical systems from the observed experimental input–output data. In the area of civil engineering, the estimation of the integrity of a structure under dynamic loadings and during service condition has become a challenge for the engineering community. Therefore, there has been a great deal of attention paid to online and real-time structural identification, especially when input–output measurement data are contaminated by high-level noise. Among real-time identification methods, one of the most successful and widely used algorithms for estimation of system states and parameters is the Kalman filter and its various nonlinear extensions such as extended Kalman filter (EKF), Iterated EKF (IEKF), the recently developed unscented Kalman filter (UKF) and Iterated UKF (IUKF). In this paper, an investigation has been carried out on the aforementioned techniques for their effectiveness and efficiencies through a highly nonlinear single degree of freedom (SDOF) structure as well as a two-storey linear structure. Although IEKF is an improved version of EKF, results show that IUKF generally produces better results in terms of structural parameters and state estimation than UKF and IEKF. Also IUKF is more robust to noise levels compared to the other approaches.
