tch processes usually consist of multiple phases with different characteristics. Many research works have been done, focusing on process monitoring as well as quality prediction using phase information. However, few of them consider transitions from phase to phase, although transitions widely exit in batch processes and have non-ignorable impacts on product qualities. In the present work, a phase-based PLS method utilizing transition information is proposed to give both online and offline quality predictions, based on the understanding of the way transitions impact product qualities. First, batch processes are divided into several phases. Regression parameters other than prior process knowledge are utilized in phase division. Then both steady phases and transitions which have great influences on qualities are identified as critical-to-quality phases using statistical methods. Finally, based on the analysis of different characteristics of transitions and steady phases, an accumulative algorithm is developed for quality prediction. The application to an injection molding process shows the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm in comparison with the traditional MPLS method and the stage-based PLS method.

Intrusion detection is a significant application in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). S. Kumar et al have introduced the concept of barrier coverage, which deploys sensors in a narrow belt region to guarantee that any intrusion across the region is to be detected. However, the practical issues have not been investigated such as scheduling sensors energy-efficiently while guaranteeing the detection probability of any intrusion across the region based on probabilistic sensing model, which is a more realistic sensing model. Besides, the intruders may be humans, animals, fighter planes or other things, which obviously have diverse moving speeds. In this paper, we analyze the detection probability of arbitrary path across the barrier of sensors theoretically and take the maximum speed of possible intruders into consideration since the sensor networks are designed for different intruders in different scenarios. Based on the theoretical analysis of detection probability, we formulate a Minimum Weight ∈-Barrier Problem about how to schedule sensors energy-efficiently. We show the problem NP-hard and propose a bounded approximation algorithm, called Minimum Weight Barrier Algorithm (MWBA) to schedule the activation of sensors. To evaluate our design, we analyze the performance of MWBA theoretically and also perform extensive simulations to demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed algorithm.

Tension control and precise conveyance in web-handling machines are critical to ensure product quality. This paper is focused on analyzing the effect of idle rollers on flexible web tension vibration for discontinuous web transport systems. First, the simplified algebraic dynamical models of the inertia and friction are presented, which plays an important role for the design of idle rollers' layout systems. Second, the tension vibration test method and tension data collection scheme are introduced, respectively. Finally, based on the mathematical model and test strategies, an experiment platform is established. Several experiments have been performed to show idle rollers' effect on tension control and tension vibration in the discontinuous web transport system.

We propose a novel kind of termination criteria, reduced precision solution (RPS) criteria, for solving optimal control problems (OCPs) in nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC), which should be solved quickly for new inputs to be applied in time. Computational delay, which may destroy the closed-loop stability, usually arises while non-convex and nonlinear OCPs are solved with differential equations as the constraints. Traditional termination criteria of optimization algorithms usually involve slow convergence in the solution procedure and waste computing resources. Considering the practical demand of solution precision, RPS criteria are developed to obtain good approximate solutions with less computational cost. These include some indices to judge the degree of convergence during the optimization procedure and can stop iterating in a timely way when there is no apparent improvement of the solution. To guarantee the feasibility of iterate for the solution procedure to be terminated early, the feasibility- perturbed sequential quadratic programming (FP-SQP) algorithm is used. Simulations on the reference tracking performance of a continuously stirred tank reactor (CSTR) show that the RPS criteria efficiently reduce computation time and the adverse effect of computational delay on closed-loop stability.

It is an interesting topic to study decentralized control algorithms for a group of agents to achieve a class of collective circular motion, or called torus. An algorithm was proposed in [1] where no global beacon information is required, however, the agents are homogeneous. In particular, it was assumed that the agents have a common nominal rotation radius and share a common reference frame. In this paper, an improved algorithm is proposed on heterogeneous agents by removing the two assumptions.

The H∞ approach is used for the clearance of flight control laws when some parameters in the flight control system vary in a certain range. The proposed H∞ approach is developed from general H∞ theory and is applied to the clearance of a flight control law for a missile. Based on bounded real lemma, two theorems about clearance are deduced, and the clearance problem is transformed to a general linear matrix inequality problem. A BTT missile is chosen as an example to test the proposed method. The simulation result shows that the proposed method is convenient and efficient.
