Formation control has received significant attention in the field of multiple autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) in recent years. There are many theoretical methods for solving this problem. But when applying these methods to an actual multiple AUVs system, communication constraints need to be considered because acoustic communication among multiple AUVs often is unreliable in actual ocean environment. This paper focuses on application and validation of a leader-follower approach on multi-AUVs formation maintenance with acoustic communication constraints. The communication interval between AUVs and packet loss rate are researched based on experiments. A leader-follower formation control algorithm based on a Line-Of- Sight guidance law is proposed. The simulation and experiment results show that the proposed method is effective and feasible when keeping a formation with a long delay of underwater acoustic communication, and it is also suitable for short-time communication interruption.

A multi-type lane detection and recognition method using onboard around-view system was proposed, which could provide distinct road information around the vehicle and was less susceptible to occlusion by other vehicles. Firstly, the principle direction of the image was rectified based on Hough transform, as lane markings close to the vehicle are straight. Then x space feature histogram was used to detect regions of interest and y space feature histogram was used to recognize the properties of lane markings, such as number of lines, solid/dashed, and so on. Color information was analyzed in the HSV color space. Finally, a Kalman filter and confidence measurement was used to reduce the impact of noise. Experimental results demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper introduces atomic force microscope(AFM) deposition method to fabricate nanostructures and nanodevices. Field emission theory is introduced in this paper, which provides theoretical explanation for AFM deposition. Dot matrixes are fabricated by AFM deposition on three different substrates, Si, Au and GaA s. Differences of deposition on the three substrates are discussed. AFM deposition has many practical applications. For example, AFM deposition can be used to solder nano components together to improve electrical properties of nanodevices. Besides nanosoldering, AFM deposition can also be used in fabrication of nanodevices. Thus AFM deposition is a valuable research field for future massive applications of nanodevices.

The MEFPDA-SCKF algorithm, which is based on square-root cubature Kalman filter (SCKF) and maximum entropy fuzzy probabilistic data association (MEFPDA), is proposed for single observer bearings-only target tracking in cluttered underwater environment. SCKF is used to solve the nonlinear state estimation of bearings-only tracking. MEFPDA is used to reduce the interference of clutter and provide reliable bearings. Simulation and field experiment are conducted to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

Due to the intense vibration durirLg launching and rigorous orbital temperature environment, the kinematic parameters of space robot may be largely deviated from their nominal parameters. The disparity will cause the real pose (including position and orientation) of the end effector not to match the desired one, and further hinder the space robot from performing the scheduled mission. To improve pose accuracy of space robot, a new self-calibration method using the distance measurement provided by a laser-ranger fixed on the end-effector is proposed. A distance-measurement model of the space robot is built according to the distance from the starting point of the laser beam to the intersection point at the declining plane. Based on the model, the cost function about the pose error is derived. The kinematic calibration is transferred to a non-linear system optimization problem, which is solved by the improved differential evolution (DE) algoritlun. A six-degree of freedom (6-DOF) robot is used as a practical simulation example, and the simulation results show: 1) A significant improvement of pose accuracy of space robot can be obtained by distance measurement only; 2) Search efficiency is increased by improved DE; 3) More calibration configurations may make calibration results better.

In this paper, a new hysteresis modeling method based on an improved sub-pixel blocking matching algorithm with an optimal block size and the Preisach model is proposed to model the hysteresis behavior of a nano piezoelectric actuator (PA) on nano scale in a real time system. First, the Preisach model about the hysteresis behavior of a piezoelectric actuator is introduced. Then, a real time block matching algorithm is proposed and its block size is optimized with a standard object. Finally, experiments are conducted with respect to a nano-meter movement platform system, and the results show the feasibility and validity of the sub-pixel estimation based block matching algorithm and its application in modeling the hysteresis behavior of PA.

On the basis of Poincare mapping and cell mapping theories, this paper proposes an improved PCM method that is Gradual Point Mapping - Cell Mapping (GPCM) method. Compared with Point Mapping - Cell Mapping Synthesis (PCM) method, GPCM method proposed can better address the calculation excessive, the credibility guarantee and other issues. The global stability of passive biped robot was analyzed by using GPCM method, the global domains of attraction of a variety of physical parameters' combinations were solved, and we optimized the robot's parameters accordingly. The dynamics simulation and robot prototype experiments show that the robot has strong robustness and can converge to a stable gait by a fast convergence rate.
