Hazard and operability(HAZOP) methodology is an important Process Hazard Analysis(PHA) technique for ensuring safety production in chemical industry. Due to the lacks of accuracy and reliability in manual HAZOP analysis, the quantitative HAZOP analysis has gained more and more attention. In this work, a process simulation-based HAZOP analysis method and its flow chart are proposed. And the proposed method is applied to a steam generation subsystem in an ethylene pyrolysis unit on a dynamic process simulation platform. All deviation parameters of system can be calculated and described quantitatively. The case study shows the proposed method is useful for the effective risk prevention and control measures in a chemical process.

The concept of cloud controlsystems is discussed in this paper, which is an extension of networked controlsystems (NCSs). With the development of internet of things (IOT), the technology of NCSs has played a key role in IOT. At the same time, cloud computing is developed rapidly, which provides a perfect platform for big data processing, controller design and performance assessment. The research on cloud controlsystems will give new contribution to the control theory and applications in the near future.

Social computing, as the technical foundation of future computational smart societies, has the potential to improve the effectiveness of opensource big data usage, systematically integrate a variety of elements including time, human, resources, scenarios, and organizations in the current cyber-physical-social world, and establish a novel social structure with fair information, equal rights, and a flat configuration. Meanwhile, considering the big modeling gap between the model world and the physical world, the concept of parallel intelligence is introduced. With the help of software-defined everything, parallel intelligence bridges the big modeling gap by means of constructing artificial systems where computational experiments can be implemented to verify social policies, economic strategies, and even military operations. Artificial systems play the role of ＂social laboratories＂ in which decisions are computed before they are executed in our physical society. Afterwards, decisions with the expected outputs are executed in parallel in both the artificial and physical systems to interactively sense, compute, evaluate and adjust system behaviors in real-time, leading system behaviors in the physical system converging to those proven to be optimal in the artificial ones. Thus, the smart guidance and management for our society can be achieved.

This paper describes a novel amphibious robot, which adopts a dual-swing-legs propulsion mechanism, proposing a new locomotion mode. The robot is called FroBot, since its structure and locomotion are similar to frogs. Our inspiration comes from the frog scooter and breaststroke. Based on its swing leg mechanism, an unusual universal wheel structure is used to generate propulsion on land, while a pair of flexible caudal fins functions like the foot flippers of a frog to generate similar propulsion underwater. On the basis of the prototype design and the dynamic model of the robot, some locomotion control simulations and experiments were conducted for the purpose of adjusting the parameters that affect the propulsion of the robot. Finally, a series of underwater experiments were performed to verify the design feasibility of FroBot and the rationality of the control algorithm.

In the multi-platform air defense combat, platforms cooperate to achieve best effect. In the traditional air defense cooperation, assigning interception units has been paid more attention. Based on the existing task allocation model, we added the cooperative guidance and time window constraints to accord with the modern battle mode. An allocation method based on decentralized auctions is also proposed. Each platform employs the heuristic method to choose proper target and confirm the execution time, then resolve the conflict by consensus rules. This method is robust for communication network, besides it can avoid the single point of failure. Simulation results show this algorithm is significantly effective and satisfies the demand of real time.

The problem of generating optimal paths for curvature-constrained unmanned aerial vehicles （UAVs） performing surveillance of multiple ground targets is addressed in this paper. UAVs are modeled as Dubins vehicles so that the constraints of UAVs＇ minimal turning radius can be taken into account. In view of the effective surveillance range of the sensors equipped on UAVs, the problem is formulated as a Dubins traveling salesman problem with neighborhood （DTSPN）. Considering its prohibitively high computational complexity, the Dubins paths in the sense of terminal heading relaxation are introduced to simplify the calculation of the Dubins distance, and a boundary-based encoding scheme is proposed to determine the visiting point of every target neighborhood. Then, an evolutionary algorithm is used to derive the optimal Dubins tour. To further enhance the quality of the solutions, a local search strategy based on approximate gradient is employed to improve the visiting points of target neighborhoods. Finally, by a minor modification to the individual encoding, the algorithm is easily extended to deal with other two more sophisticated DTSPN variants （multi-UAV scenario and multiple groups of targets scenario）. The performance of the algorithm is demonstrated through comparative experiments with other two state-of-the-art DTSPN algorithms identified in literature. Numerical simulations exhibit that the algorithm proposed in this paper can find high-quality solutions to the DTSPN with lower computational cost and produce significantly improved performance over the other algorithms.

The extended state observer, a crucial part of the active disturbance rejection control, was first proposed in 1995 by Jingqing Han. The discrete-time form of the extended state observer has been extensively used in many practical applications in engineering such as quad-rotor robot control and non-circular machining control;the convergence property of the discrete-time n-dimensional extended state observer, however, remains unexplored and is investigated in this work. The main idea is to construct the error equations of the discrete-time extended state observer for an n-dimensional single-input-single-output nonlinear system with uncertainty, and to prove the convergence of the extended state observer through induction.
