This paper focuses on the topological optimization of structures subjected to stationary random excitations. A new topology optimization scheme based on the pseudo excitation method (PEM) for calculating structural random responses in a frequency domain is proposed. In this method, the Sturm sequence is applied to adaptively determine the number of lower-order modes used for mode superposition analysis. The contribution of unknown higher-order modes is approximated by the partial sum of a constructed convergent series. Since the method can offer an approximate expression of structural response solutions, not only it can enhance the flexibility of implementation and also improve the computational effort and accuracy. In addition, derivatives of the objective function are derived by means of the adjoint method. They can be achieved by solving an adjoint problem that is similar to the original governing equation of the system. Two illustrative examples are presented to affirm the proposed scheme in terms of computational accuracy and efficiency.

This paper presents a novel adaptive feedforward control (AFC) method for rejecting sinusoidal disturbances with known frequencies acting on multi-input-multi-output (MIMO) discrete time linear systems based on the H-infinity synthesis. First, the gradient AFC (GAFC) for MIMO systems is reviewed, and the linear time invariant (LTI) equivalent form of the GAFC is approximated for stability analysis. For single-input-single-output (SISO) systems, this paper shows small adaptation gains guarantee the stability of GAFC for any disturbance frequency. Then inspired by the stability of SISO GAFC, the inversion based AFC (IAFC) is proposed for MIMO systems. In this method, the GAFC is compensated by an H-infinity model matching filter, which renders nearly decoupled systems with fixed time delays. The LTI analysis, simulation study and experimental results from an open-loop unstable MIMO Active Magnetic Bearing Spindle (AMBS) are presented to demonstrate the stability and effectiveness of the proposed IAFC in rejecting narrow-band disturbances.

The reduced-rank regression (RRR) model is widely used in data analytics where the response variables are believed to depend on a few linear combinations of the predictor variables, or when such linear combinations are of special interest. In this paper, we will address the RRR model estimation problem by considering two targets which are popular especially in big data applications: i) the estimation should be robust to heavy-tailed data distribution or outliers;ii) the estimation should be amenable to large-scale data sets or data streams. In this paper, we address the robustness via the robust maximum likelihood estimation procedure based on Cauchy distribution and a stochastic estimation procedure is further adopted to deal with the large-scale data sets. An efficient algorithm leveraging on the stochastic majorization minimization method is proposed for problem-solving. The proposed model and algorithm is validated numerically by comparing with the state-of-the-art methods.

In modern communication systems, digital predistortion (DPD) improve the linearity of PA and reduce the influence of nonlinear behavior on signal transmission. When identifying the inverse model of PA with traditional variable step size algorithm, the rate of convergence is slower, easy to be effected by noise and convergence instability exists at the optimal solution, which affects the optimization degree of the whole predistortion system. In this article, a digital predistortion technique based on improved NLMS algorithm is proposed to improve the accuracy of inverse model identification, convergence rate and anti-noise performance of the predistorter by changing the iteration function and introducing the autocorrelation matrix of the error of adjacent moments. The instability of the system at the optimal solution is reduced by introducing a new weight coefficient to update the correlation term. The simulation results show that the anti-noise performance, convergence rate and stability of the predistortion system based on New variable step size NLMS algorithm(NVNLMS) are obviously better than NLMS, and the out-of-band suppression of predistortion is optimized by 10 dB compared with the original system EVM is improved by 0.0031, ACPR is improved 9.1 dB.

A key goal of edge computing is to achieve "distributed sensing'' out of data continuously generated from a multitude of interconnected physical devices. The traditional approach is to gather information into sparse collector devices by relying on hop-by-hop accumulation, but issues of reactivity and fragility naturally arise in scenarios with high mobility. We propose novel algorithms for dynamic data summarisation across space, supporting high reactivity and resilience by specific techniques maximising the speed at which information propagates towards collectors. Such algorithms support idempotent and arithmetic aggregation operators and, under reasonable network assumptions, are proved to achieve optimal reactivity. We provide evaluation via simulation: first in multiple scenarios showing improvement over the state of art, and then by a case study in edge data mining, which conveys the practical impact in higher-level distributed sensing patterns.

Hybrid quantum/molecular mechanics models (QM/MM methods) are widely used in material and molecular simulations when MM models do not provide sufficient accuracy but pure QM models are computationally prohibitive. adaptive QM/MM coupling methods feature on-the-fly classification of atoms during the simulation, allowing the QM and MM subsystems to be updated as needed. In this work, we propose such an adaptive QM/MM method for material defect simulations based on a new residual stemming from an a posteriori error estimator, which provides both lower and upper bounds for the true error. We validate the analysis and illustrate the effectiveness of the new scheme on numerical simulations for material defects.

In graph signal processing, there are often settings where the graph topology is not known beforehand and has to be estimated from data. Moreover, some graphs can be dynamic, such as brain activity supported by neurons or brain regions. This paper focuses on estimating in an online and adaptive manner a network structure capturing the non-linear dependencies among streaming graph signals in the form of a possibly directed, adjacency matrix. By projecting data into a higher- or infinite-dimension space, we focus on capturing nonlinear relationships between agents. In order to mitigate the increasing number of data points, we employ kernel dictionaries. Finally, we run a series of tests in order to experimentally illustrate the usefulness of our kernel-based approach on biomedical data, on which we obtain results comparable to state-of-the-art methods.

Current developments illustrate the need for resilient value creation. However, the former persistent trend of constantly changing production environments also requires adaptive and self-learning tools. Although digitization solutions already exist, these are often specialized methods for a specific problem based on a large amount of data. Instead, the novel approach explained here enables the direct and immediate interpretation of characteristic values for predictive condition assessment with a small amount of data. An adaptive algorithm was developed and tested in a real environment, which performs a dynamic limit value formation using an adaptive characteristic value segmentation.

Extracting useful information (damage existence, location, identification, and quantifica-tion) from measured signals for damage identification is critical in structural health monitoring, while time-varying nature of most signals often require huge efforts. In this paper, adaptive wavelet analysis AWT is first introduced as a preprocessing approach of clearer, smoother and more accurate time-frequency representation. Optimized analytical mode decomposition (AMD) is then utilized for signal component extraction, with the help of AWT for bisecting frequency determination. Examples of time-varying signals of sinusoidal function and Duffing systems are used to illustrate the advantages of the algorithm, which proves to be successful in signal decomposition. Multiple AMD (MAMD) with the optimized algorithm is then utilized together with AWT for signal decomposition and system identification of the shake table test of a 1/20-scale cable-stayed bridge model. The extracted stiffness and damping coefficients retain a preliminary indication of the damage progression during the earthquake input. (C) 2020 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
