Surface defect inspection is vital for the quality control of products and the fault diagnosis of equipment. Defect inspection remains challenging due to the low level of automation in some manufacturing plants and the difficulty in identifying defec...

The opposed-power reciprocating pump has the characteristics of high pressure, large flow, and high efficiency and energy saving. However, due to the special structure of the opposed-power reciprocating pump, existing theoretical methods cannot analy...

Exploring the transformation of spatial mechanisms from their unfolded to controlled folding states to meet the requirements of various application scenarios has long been a hot topic in mechanical structure research. Although conventional spatial me...

Edge computing can avoid the long-distance transmission of massive data and problems with large-scale centralized processing. Hence, defect identification for insulators with object detection models based on deep learning is gradually shifting from c...

As the main engineering power plant, diesel engines are irreplaceable in the future. However, the stringent emission regulations impose many tough requirements to their developments. Recently, flexible fuel injection strategy has been recognized as a...

Considering the problem that the early fault signal of rolling bearing is easily interfered with by background information, such as noise, and it is difficult to extract fault features, a method of rolling bearing early fault diagnosis based on the t...

One-dimensional (1D) aerodynamic performance predictions are very often conducted by researchers and designers during the preliminary design of centrifugal compressors. This paper focuses on a 1D prediction method for centrifugal compressors with spl...

The rollover evaluation index provides an important threshold basis for the anti-rollover control system of vehicle. Regarding the rollover risk of independently driven heavy-duty vehicles, a new rollover evaluation index is proposed, and the feasibi...

Three-dimensional (3D) object detection has a vital effect on the environmental awareness task of autonomous driving scenarios. At present, the accuracy of 3D object detection has significant improvement potential. In addition, a 3D point cloud is no...

On-board train control equipment is an important component of the Train Control System (TCS) of railway trains. In order to guarantee the safe and efficient operation of the railway system, Predictive Maintenance (PdM) is significantly required. The...
