A sequenced process of fault detection followed by dissemination of decision made at each node characterizes the sustained operations of a fault-tolerant wireless image sensor network (WISN). This paper presents a distributed self-fault diagnosis model for WISN where fault diagnosis is achieved by disseminating decision made at each node. Architecture of fault-tolerant wireless image sensor nodes is presented. Simulation results show that sensor nodes with hard and soft faults are identified with high accuracy for a wide range of fault rate. Both time and message complexity of the proposed algorithm are for an -node WISN.

The purpose of the research is to establish a fault diagnosis model of the aero-engines key sensors using the artificial neural networks to replace the engines mathematical model, so as to establish a hard fault diagnosis simulation platform to monitor the performances of the engine sensors on real-time, to judge the engine failure mode timely, and to locate the fault type of sensors accurately. By analyzing the correlations of the parameters that affect the conditions of the engine, a three-layer BP network model is established. The related QAR (Quick Access Recorder) data are used to simulate and analyze the models using the MATLAB. Combined with the characteristics of the hard failure of the critical engine sensors and the correlation of the parameters, the fault diagnosis simulation platform is established. Then, the parameters of the normal engine and the failure engine are used respectively to evaluate and validate the platform. The simulation results show that the platform can judge the critical sensors faults of the engine accurately, and can locate the type of sensors reliably.

Traditional sensor fault diagnosis is mainly based on statistical classification methods. The discriminant functions in these methods are extremely complex, and typical samples of reference modes are not easy to get, therefore it is difficult to meet the actual requirements of a project. In view of the deficiencies of conventional sensor fault diagnosis technologies, a fault diagnosis method based on self-organizing feature map (SOFM) neural network is presented in this paper. And it is applied to the fault diagnosis of pipeline flow sensor in a dynamic system. The simulation results show that the fault diagnosis method based on SOFM neural network has a fast speed, high accuracy and strong generalization ability, which verifies the practicality and effectiveness of the proposed method.

In large-scale complex system, The establishment of a fast, accurate fault diagnosis system is more difficult because there exist many uncertain elements between the fault cause and the fault sign .A fault diagnosis system is established based on RBF cloud neural network ,the RBR (rule-based reasoning) and the CBR (case-based reasoning).The fault diagnosis system not only has the advantages of self-learning, high accuracy, randomness, fuzziness, etc ,and has the advantages of independently of mathematical model ,rich knowledge representation, mighty problem solving ability, etc. Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the system is feasible and effective for fast and accurate fault positioning of complex systems.

The permissioned blockchain system has recently become popular in a wide range of scenarios, such as artificial intelligence, financial applications and the Internet of things, due to its dominance in terms of distribution, decentralization, reliability and security. However, the Practical Byzantine Fault-Tolerant (PBFT) algorithm, which is currently adopted in such systems, sparks communication bottlenecks when the number of consensus nodes increases sharply, which seriously hinders large-scale applications. In this paper, we propose a scalable dynamic multi-agent hierarchical PBFT algorithm (SDMA-PBFT), which reduces the communication costs from O(n2) to O( n × k × log k n ). Specifically, SDMA-PBFT forms multiple autonomous systems at each agent node in which message multicasting can be efficiently carried out and the internal voting results can be effectively collected. Therefore, the design of these agent nodes facilitates the in-and-out operations of consensus nodes in the blockchain system. Simulation results show that our proposed algorithm substantially outperforms the PBFT algorithm in terms of latency. Hence, it can be applied to the permissioned blockchain system effectively and efficiently.

The paper presents the theoretical analysis and simulation verification of robust fault diagnosis and adaptive parameter identification for single phase transformerless inverters. The fault diagnosis is composed of two parts, fault detection and fault identification. In the fault detection part, a Luenberger observer is designed to realize the detection of faults. Then, we apply a bank of observers to identify the location of faults. Meanwhile, the fault identification observers based estimation along with a gradient descent algorithm are also used in the parameter identification to estimate the actual values of components in a single phase transformerless inverter. Not only we develop the design methodology for the robust fault diagnosis and adaptive parameter identifier but also we present simulation results. The simulation results show the effectiveness of fault diagnosis and the accurate tracking of changes in component parameters for a wide range.

We propose a wide-range micro- and nano-positioning sensor based on an image sensor. The intensity distribution of a Moiré signal is measured on the image sensor and used for position sensing via Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) analysis. The FFT returns the frequency spectra and phase characteristics of the image. The frequencies caused by the beam divergence, the order of diffraction, and the Moiré signal can then be identified. The sensor can detect position with high accuracy using the phase shift of the Moiré signal. The results also demonstrate a measurement range of up to 6 mm and an estimated standard deviation of 3.3 nm under specified conditions. Moreover, the target position can be set arbitrarily by automatic PI control. This positioning sensor is characterized as using only one sensor to detect position with a high accuracy over a wide measurement range, making it easy to install in existing industrial machines and tools. Moreover, the accuracy and the measurement range are selectable by choosing the appropriate frequency component.

The garbage crusher is a new kind of crusher for garbage crushing when processing Municipal Solid Waste (MSW). With the development of automatic equipment and the complication of structure and properties of the garbage crusher, the fault diagnosis of garbage crusher is very important. In this paper, according to the fault symptoms and parameters, Radial Basis Function Neural Network (RBF NN) is used for fault diagnosis of the garbage crusher. The structure and inference of RBF NN are discussed in detail. The garbage crusher fault diagnosis model is established based on RBF network. At last, the fault of mechanical system is taken as an example of garbage crusher fault diagnosis. Training simulation results of the neural network are given base on MATLAB software. The result shows the RBF NN is suitable for fault diagnosis of garbage crusher.

Abstract Due to the development of smaller and denser manufacturing processes most of the hardware localization techniques cannot keep up satisfactorily with the technology trend. There is an increased need in precise and accurate software based diagnosis tools to help identify the fault location. This paper describes the software based fault diagnosis method used within Philips, focusing on the features developed to increase its accuracy.
