Marine structures like Floating Wind Turbine (FWT) is exposed to the oncoming waves and wind that can cause oscillatory motions within the system. These undesired oscillations can have negative impacts on the efficiency of the system, reduce its lifespan, hinder energy extraction, increase stress levels, and raise maintenance costs. To mitigate these negative impacts, the integration of Wave Energy Converters (WECs) into the FWT system has been proposed. This hybrid system may be capable of extracting coupled wind-wave energy and transferring electrical power to the shared grid. This paper presents an investigation of the use of Oscillating Water Columns (OWCs), a type of WECs, within a FWT system. The purpose of using an OWC is to increase the hydrodynamic damping and reduce the resonant motions of the floating wind turbines under environmental loads, including both wind and wave loads. This is because the wave energy from OWC would be very small as compared to the wind energy. However, OWCs can provide a damping source for reducing the resonant motions of the floater, especially the pitch resonant motions. This would be very beneficial for the power performance of the floating w ind turbine and the structural design of the floater. T he p urpose of this paper is to redesign the original FWT platform to accommodate the additional OWCs by considering the hydrostatic stability and hydrodynamics since the new elements, the OWCs, can significantly change the response of the platform. The redesign of the original FWT involves the integration of OWCs within two out of three columns of an existing semisubmersible platform for a 12 MW FWT. To do this, two moonpools, which are consistent with OWC air chambers, have been created within two columns of the FWT. The water ballast was designed for the columns with and without OWCs. After that the redesign is done hydrostatic stability and hydrodynamics analyses are evaluated. The hydrodynamics properties are discussed in terms o

In this paper, we explore how to use a Nvidia Jetson Nano and Python to create a system that detects weariness in a person’s face using computer vision and machine learning techniques. The system captures the person’s face in real time, preprocesses the picture to cut noise, then detects the face using Haar cascades. Next, using computer vision algorithms, characteristics associated with weariness, such as the eyes, are retrieved. These characteristics are then used to build a machine learning model that can predict weariness in the live stream feed. Lastly, using a graphical user interface, the findings are shown, and the system may be fine-tuned to increase accuracy. This device might be used in applications such as driver monitoring and traffic safety.

Application of learning to collaborative tracking control of multi-agent systems has addressed a wealth of problems across transportation, manufacturing, rescue, aerospace and medical care areas. Iterative learning control algorithms have been proposed to address synergistic objectives in general optimization problems, achieving a transparent balance between convergence speed, tracking error and robustness. This paper builds on this framework by formulating a point-to-point strategy that allows each subsystem to track only a portion of the trajectory, thereby providing a more flexible design framework with broad utility. Moreover, a channel tracking strategy is developed to ensure that the total output during untracked intervals is limited to an a specified range. The practicality of this novel control framework is illustrated through derivation, simulation and evaluation of three new iterative learning laws: inverse, gradient and norm-optimal. Convergence analysis for the proposed framework is also given.

Soft sensors experience an increasing interest in recent years, as they can replace expensive hardware meters and the required embedded computing hardware has become cheap and powerful. We report results for the implementation of a soft sensor for the flow rate estimation in centrifugal pumps that achieves root mean square errors of about 5%. The proposed soft sensor is based on generic models for the drive and hydraulic part of the pump to ensure widespread applicability. We show the soft sensor and the models it is based on can be parametrized with simple measurements. All theoretical considerations are corroborated with measurements on a real industrial pump in a laboratory setup. The results show that the proposed soft sensor is capable of providing reliable flow rate estimates in spite of plant model mismatch and uncertain hardware components.
