To ensure reliable localization for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAVs) in the presence of uncertain speed of the Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV), this study examines the relative localization problem of UAV-UGV using distance and bearing measurements. A Correlation of Bearing and Distance-based Relative Localization (CBDRL) algorithm is proposed in this paper under this scenario. The estimation of altitude, distance, and angle are simplified into a representation of the relative positioning between the UAV and UGV. The relative height difference is measured using the barometer in the algorithm. To determine the relative distance, Time of Arrival (TOA) ranging and Ultra Wide Band (UWB) communication are utilized. The relative direction measurement is then determined using the correlations of bearing and distance. We integrate these observations with height, direction, and distance data in an Extended Kalman Filter(EKF) to provide accurate and reliable relative position estimates that allow the UAV to track the target. The simulation results indicate that the CBDRL method developed in this study is superior to previous relative localization algorithms that rely on multi-sensor fusion, and can significantly enhance the accuracy of UAV positioning provided that range and angle measurements are precise enough.

In drilling processes, non-stationary phases corresponding to shifts between operating conditions and changes in downhole formations typically lead to false alarms. Extracting these frequent event patterns is critical to build drilling process monitoring and fault diagnosis models. This study aims to extract the frequent event patterns associated with non-stationary phases in drilling time series. In this way, diversified information related to signal changes under normal conditions can be obtained, which is beneficial for suppressing false alarms and improving fault detection performance. The main contributions of this study are twofold: 1) a non-stationary phase detection method is proposed to extract drilling frequent event patterns based on t -distributed stochastic neighbor embedding and relative unconstrained least-squares importance fitting; 2) an event sequence generation method is proposed to express drilling frequent event patterns with a group of symbols. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by data from a real drilling project.

Mobile robots for Gas Source Localization (GSL) tasks are a safer alternative than human and animal rescuers in hazardous scenarios. Existing research primarily concentrates on rule-based algorithms or conventional artificial neural networks (ANNs). However, these approaches are either inapplicable in cluttered environments or undeployable due to their high energy consumption and the demand for substantial computational resources. This paper introduces the application of energy-efficient spiking neural networks (SNNs) to address robotic GSL tasks. A pipeline is proposed to train SNNs with deep Q learning and a pretrain-finetune paradigm. To facilitate the training process, a small dataset of gas dispersion is generated utilizing openFoam and GADEN, a high-fidelity simulator for gas dispersion. Data from a simplified plume model are leveraged to pretrain an ANN, the activation function of which gradually transitions from a bounded rectified linear unit (bReLU) to a step function. Subsequently, an SNN initialized with the ANN parameters undergoes finetuning on the GADEN-based dataset. The training pipeline significantly reduces training time compared to direct training of SNNs. The trained SNN is validated within the GADEN simulation environment and compared to three different models, demonstrating promising performance and superior generalization despite limited training data.

During the coal seam drilling process, the drill string is subject to compressive deformation, compounded by unpredictable variations in formation hardness and borehole wall friction, leading to challenges in maintaining a stable feeding speed. This paper presents a novel approach by introducing uncertain parameters to describe the effects of formation hardness and borehole wall friction. Drill string axial movement model is modeled as a polyhedral system based on a lumped parameter representation. To meet industrial performance requirements, we design a robust $H_{\infty}$ controller to achieve consistent feeding speed control. Our simulation results demonstrate the controller's effectiveness in ensuring system stability despite fluctuations in formation hardness and drill string friction.

This work investigates the active suppression of stick-slip vibration based on the multi-modal analysis and equivalent-input-disturbance (EID) method. By building a lumped parameter model with a high degree of freedom, the multi-modal properties of the vibration are examined. The multi-modal disturbance signals of the drilling string system are analyzed using the variational modal decomposition method. The EID method is used to design a vibration suppression controller. The parameters in the EID method are adjusted based on the primary modal frequencies to obtain the equivalent disturbance at the appropriate frequency. According to the simulation results, the proposed approach improves the effectiveness of active vibration suppression of the drill string, which is of some significance in guiding the drilling operation.

In light of global aging and prevalent stroke-related hemiplegia, this study addresses challenges in robot-assisted Sit-to-Stand (STS) movements, a daily activity prone to falls. Supernumerary Robotic Legs (SRL) serve as independent support, enhancing stability and limb movement range. Existing coordination control methods lack personalization for STS assistance, requiring solutions for human intent transmission and rapidly optimize coordination control challenges in the non-coupled human-robot system. The proposed human-SRL coordination control algorithm, grounded in personalized SRL-human coupling models, incorporates surface electromyography (sEMG) signals to design an intent-driven variable stiffness impedance control. The inclusion of incremental learning enables rapid optimization of impedance parameters, facilitating real-time adjustments in SRL assistance for adaptive coupling with users. Practical experiments involving both healthy participants and hemiparetic patients validate the algorithm’s effectiveness during STS. The results validate substantial reductions in STS time (39.54%) and muscle activity (28.01%), highlighting the efficacy of the proposed algorithm-controlled SRL support for hemiparetic individuals. Note to Practitioners—To prevent misalignment between the SRL and natural limb movements, which can impose additional strain on the body, this study combines the principles of joint bio-mimicry to develop a personalized human-robot coupling model, and also propose an sEMG-based adaptive impedance control algorithm. Our research fills a gap in the nuanced analysis of robot-assisted support effects on both the affected and unaffected sides of hemiparetic patients, while also possessing the potential for transfer or extension to other types of rehabilitation robotic platforms. Although the SRL shows promising results, it is important to note the limitations of a small sample size and the need for further exploration of the needs of diverse patient po
