The article discusses counters defined in the IEC 61131-3 standard. The possible implementations of standard counters function blocks in FPGAs are presented. First, counters are implemented as classical hardware-based modules. Second, counters are designed as the FPGA built-in memory blocks with a single common executing unit. These solutions are compared to each other and compared with counters realized in commercially available PLCs like Siemens SIMATIC S7 controllers. The structure of integrated hardware–software CPU with counters is presented. The paper presents how the designer can take advantage of the specific features of the FPGA devices to optimize both the utilization of resources and speed of realization of the particular blocks. Experimental results prove the high efficiency of the proposed solutions.

The paper presents the experimental results of strength and deformability of reinforced concrete slabs on yielding supports arranged along the perimeter under the dynamic loading. Crushable ring-shaped inserts deforming at the elastic, plastic and curing stages are considered as yielding supports. The displacement, velocity and acceleration are evaluated depending on the deformation stage of yielding supports. The high efficiency is shown for the use of yielding supports, which leads to a significant reduction in the structure displacement, strain, and stress.

Abstract Laser metal deposition (LMD) is an additive manufacturing technique, whose performance can be influenced by a considerable number of factors and parameters. Typically, a powder is carried by an inert gas and sprayed by a nozzle, with a coaxial laser beam passing through the nozzle and overlapping the powder flow, thereby generating a molten material pool on a substrate. Monitoring the evolution of this process allows for a better comprehension and control of the process, thereby enhancing the deposition quality. As the metal additive manufacturing mechanism has not yet been elucidated, it is not clear how process parameters affect material properties, molding accuracy, and molding efficiency. When cladding is performed under uncertain conditions, a molded part with poor material properties and dimensional accuracy is created. In this paper, we propose a method for high efficiency molding by controlling the distance between the head nozzle and the molten pool in real time. The distance is identified by an originally developed sensor based on a triangulation method. According to the distance, the head nozzle is automatically controlled into the optimum position. As a result, an ideal molding process can be generated, so that high efficiency molding and high-quality material properties can be obtained. Experimental results show that continuing deposition at the optimum distance assists in achieving deposition efficiency and dimensional accuracy. According to the specific experimental results of this method, the modeling efficiency was increased by 27% compared to the method without correction, and the modeling was successful with an error within 1 mm.

This paper presents a method that utilizes a memristor to replace the non-linear resistance of typical Chua’s circuit for constructing a chaotic system. The improved circuit is numerically simulated in the MATLAB condition, and its hardware implementation is designed using field programmable gate array (FPGA). Comparing the experimental results with the numerical simulation, the two are the very same, and be able to generate chaotic attractor.

To realize the high-efficiency grinding of the aspheric surfaces on monocrystal silicon, a novel on-machine truing method for the resin-bonded arc-shaped diamond wheels was proposed utilizing rotary green silicon carbon rod, and then the high-efficiency grinding of the aspheric surface was performed. First, the principle of mutual-wear for truing arc-shaped diamond wheel was introduced, and the truing performance was studied. The experimental results showed that the top morphology of the trued arc-shaped wheel was precise and smooth, and the run error on the top of the trued arc-shaped wheel was reduced from 41 to 10 µm after truing. Furthermore, high-efficiency grinding experiments revealed that the surface quality of the aspheric surface increased with the increase in the average material removal rates.

<div>The nanogrids are the basic unit to develop more complex and stronger distributed systems. DC nanogrids allow a better performance and higher efficiency than the AC nanogrids. The lack of DC home appliances in the local market has resulted in a slow development of DC Home Nanogrids (DCHN). The Compact Fluorescent Lamp (CFL) and LED are used in power electronics as high efficiency and low cost lightning components. However, these devices represent a source of emission of harmonics in Alternating Current (AC) and Direct Current (DC) systems, due to their nonlinear behavior. In this paper a mathematical model for the nonlinear loads and experimental results of the voltage and current ripple in a DCHN are presented. The CFL and LED lamps are used as our nonlinear loads for test the model. The model explains well the experimental results of how the ripple amplitude is reduced. We also present the effect of decreasing the ripple amplitude when it is incorporated an induction stove in standby mode to the DCHN, which also is explained by the model.</div>

Abstract Experimental and numerical studies were conducted to investigate the in-plane behavior of the steel–concrete composite frame slab under cyclic loads. In the experimental study, an in-plane loading test of a typical composite frame slab was designed by constraining its out-of-plane deformations. The test observations, the load–displacement relationship, and the shear and flexural deformation components were discussed to investigate the in-plane load resistant behavior and the failure mechanism of the slab. The experimental results demonstrated an evident shear cracking concentration behavior and a pinching hysteretic curve associated with a typical shear-tension failure mode of the composite frame slab. In the numerical study, a high-efficiency modeling scheme based on the multiple vertical line element model (MVLEM) and the fiber beam–column element was developed for the test specimen. Comparisons with the experimental results showed that the developed model predicted the overall load–displacement relationship, the relationships associated with the shear and flexural deformation components, and the failure mode with a reasonable level of accuracy.
