Element Method

The attempt to integrate the applications of conventional structural deformation reconstruction strategies and vibration-based damage identification methods is made in this study, where, more specifically, the inverse finite element method (iFEM) and pseudo-excitation approach (PE) are combined for the first time, to give rise to a novel structural health monitoring (SHM) framework showing various advantages, particularly in aspects of enhanced adaptability and robustness. As the key component of the method, the inverse finite element method (iFEM) enables precise reconstruction of vibration displacements based on measured dynamic strains, which, as compared to displacement measurement, is much more adaptable to existing on-board SHM systems in engineering practice. The PE, on the other hand, is applied subsequently, relying on the reconstructed displacements for the identification of structural damage. Delamination zones in a carbon fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) laminate are identified using the developed method. As demonstrated by the damage detection results, the iFEM-PE method possesses apparently improved accuracy and significantly enhanced noise immunity compared to the original PE approach depending on displacement measurement. Extensive parametric study is conducted to discuss the influence of a variety of factors on the effectiveness and accuracy of damage identification, including the influence of damage size and position, measurement density, sensor layout, vibration frequency and noise level. It is found that different factors are highly correlated and thus should be considered comprehensively to achieve optimal detection results. The application of the iFEM-PE method is extended to better adapt to the structural operational state, where multiple groups of vibration responses within a wide frequency band are used. Hybrid data fusion is applied to process the damage index (DI) constructed based on the multiple responses, leading to detection results capable of indicating delamination positions precisely.

The paper presents the results of research on assessing the accuracy of angular position measurement relative to the sea horizon using a camera mounted on an unmanned bathymetric surveying vehicle of the Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) or Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) type. The first part of the article presents the essence of the problem. The rules of taking the angular position of the vehicle into account in bathymetric surveys and the general concept of the two-camera tilt compensator were described. The second part presents a mathematical description of the meters characterizing a resolution and a mean error of measurements, made on the base of the horizon line image, recorded with an optical system with a Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) matrix. The phenomenon of the horizon line curvature in the image projected onto the matrix that appears with the increase of the camera height has been characterized. The third part contains an example of a detailed analysis of selected cameras mounted on UAVs manufactured by DJI, carried out using the proposed meters. The obtained results including measurement resolutions of a single-pixel and mean errors of the horizon line slope measurement were presented in the form of many tables and charts with extensive comments. The final part presents the general conclusions from the performed research and a proposal of directions for their further development.

Mechanics Of Materials

In robotic-assisted heart surgery, the method of canceling the relative motion between the surgical site on the heart and the surgical instruments was introduced in this paper. A whisker sensor was designed for three dimensional position measurement in beating heart surgery. Analytical models were developed according to the classical mechanics of materials, and theoretical formulas were derived for displacement measurement. Feasibility and effectiveness of the method were verified by simulation experiments. We can obtain measurements by loading displacement to the whisker sensor, and draw conclusions by comparing the measurements.
