Patent number: 10900779Abstract: A method for the rapid detection of the linear axis angular error of an NC machine tool, belongs to the technical field of NC machine tool testing. Firstly, the measuring device is mounted on the linear axis. Then, the linear axis moves at three different speeds at a constant speed, and the upper measurement system automatically performs multi-channel acquisition and storage of the motion measurement's point measurement data. Then, based on the same geometric error signal, it is decomposed into the different frequency components, and the measurement angle error is filtered at the different speeds. Finally, the measurement angle errors at the three speeds after filtering are superimposed to complete the rapid measurement of the linear axis angular error of the machine tool. The measurement efficiency is high and data processing capability is strong.Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 2018Date of Patent: January 26, 2021Assignee: DALIAN UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGYInventors: Yongqing Wang, Kuo Liu, Jiakun Wu, Haibo Liu, Zhisong Liu, Haining Liu

Patent number: 10891855Abstract: A method to schedule intelligent traffic lights in real time based on digital infochemicals (DIs) is disclosed. The method takes advantage of DIs as medium to both predicate traffic flow and smooth the green/Cycle (g/C) ratio. First collect DIs, then update DIs by three actions including aggregation, evaporation, and propagation. After that, adjust the g/C ratio of the traffic light. DIs have the function of prediction due to the propagation that allows DIs reach the traffic earlier than the real traffic flow. On the other hand, DIs have the function of memory due to the evaporation that remembers the information of the historical traffic flow. The prediction and memory of DIs, as the reason why DIs are superior to the pure traffic flow, give the DI-based intelligent traffic light compelling advantages over the pure traffic based intelligent traffic light.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2019Date of Patent: January 12, 2021Assignee: DALIAN UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGYInventors: Guangyu Zou, Dan Shi, Lili Zhang

Patent number: 10885146Abstract: Data analysis for structural health monitoring relating to a method of modal identification for structures with non-proportional damping based on extended sparse component analysis. Hilbert transform constructs analytical signal of acceleration response. Analytical signal is transformed into time-frequency domain using short-time-Fourier transform. The criterion is taken as the correlation coefficient of adjacent frequency points is close to 1. Points contributed by only one mode are detected from the time-frequency plane. Phases calculated at single-source-points are used to remove local outliers through local outlier factor method. Amplitudes of complex-valued mode shapes are estimated by Hierarchical clustering of amplitudes for time-frequency coefficients at single-source-points. Averaged phases of grouped single-source-points are estimated phases of complex-valued mode shapes. Finally, complex-valued mode shapes are acquired. Modal responses are estimated by sparse reconstruction method.Type: GrantFiled: August 27, 2018Date of Patent: January 5, 2021Assignee: DALIAN UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGYInventors: Tinghua Yi, Xiaojun Yao, Chunxu Qu, Hongnan Li

Patent number: 10866159Abstract: A large-amplitude vertical-torsional coupled free vibration testing device for wind tunnel test. The large-amplitude vertical-torsional coupled free vibration device for wind tunnel test includes rigid deck model, lightweight rigid rods, lightweight rigid circular aluminium hubs, the first thin strings, linear tensile vertical springs, and the second lightweight strings.

In the traditional free vibration device, the spring may obviously tilt, and the linear torsional stiffness cannot be ensured. The device can be conveniently installed and the initial angle of attack can be easily adjusted. The extreme low and stable mechanical damping ratio required for large-amplitude vibrations can be readily guaranteed, owing to the invocation of the negligible rolling friction between the thin strings and the hub.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2018Date of Patent: December 15, 2020Assignee: DALIAN UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGYInventor: Fuyou Xu
