Abstract: Provided are a power electronic device degradation monitoring apparatus and method. The apparatus includes a power cycling test system, a heat sink, an acoustic emission sensor, a power electronic device under test, and a signal processing system. The acoustic emission sensor is configured to collect a stress wave signal released by the power electronic device under test at each turn-off time and transmitted by the heat sink. The signal processing system is configured to preprocess the stress wave signal collected by the acoustic emission sensor, extract feature components from a preprocessed stress wave signal, calculate key feature parameters of each feature component, and compare the calculated key feature parameters with key feature parameters of the power electronic device under test in a healthy status to obtain a degradation status of the power electronic device under test.

Abstract: A method for shoreline segmentation in complex environments based on the perspective of an unmanned surface vessel is provided. A visible light image, a thermal infrared image and a raw radar echo image of a shoreline are obtained. The visible light image and the thermal infrared image are subjected to fusion and feasible region segmentation to obtain an all-weather two-dimensional image information of the shoreline, and an echo image including tiny features is obtained based on the raw radar echo image. An extraction region is constrained and shoreline features are enhanced based on the all-weather two-dimensional image information and the echo image to obtain a multi-feature point cloud dataset for shoreline segmentation.

Abstract: A non-destructive testing system for photovoltaic cells includes a non-contact electromagnetic induction device, a short-wave infrared (SWIR) camera or/and a visible-light camera, a thermal imaging device, and an image processing device. The non-contact electromagnetic induction device is configured for generating an external electric field acting on the photovoltaic cell without being in contact with the photovoltaic cell. A direction of the external electric field is parallel to that of an internal electric field of the photovoltaic cell. The SWIR camera or/and the visible-light camera is/are configured for obtaining an optical radiation distribution map within the photovoltaic cell. The thermal imaging device is configured for obtaining a thermal radiation distribution map in the photovoltaic cell. The image processing device is configured for storing and processing the optical and thermal radiation distribution maps. Non-destructive testing equipment including the above system is further provided.
