Here, a novel hybrid method of intelligent fault identification within complex mechanical systems was proposed using parallel-factor (PARAFAC) theory and adaptive particle swarm optimization (APSO) for a support vector machine (SVM). The parallel-fac...

The methodology for assigning and assessing the surface quality is used at various stages of the product life cycle: during the design and technological preparation of production, the production itself, and during the control (testing) of products. T...

Monitoring the machining process is crucial for providing cost-effective, high-quality production and preventing unwanted accidents. This study aims to predict critical machining conditions related to surface roughness and tool breakage in titanium a...

Computer vision technology is increasingly being widely applied in automated industrial production. However, the accuracy of workpiece detection is the bottleneck in the field of computer vision detection technology. Herein, a new object detection an...

This paper aims to investigate the possibility of combining humanoid robots, particularly the NAO robot, with a mobile application to enhance the educational experiences of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The NAO robot, interfaced with...

The study focused on the development of -gas turbine full- and part-load operation diagnostics. The gas turbine performance model was developed using commercial software and validated using the engine manufacturer data. Upon the validation, fouling,...

This paper presents a synchronous proportional derivative (PD) control method using a time delay estimator (SPD-TDE) for a four-degree-of-freedom (DOF) parallel robot in practice. The proposed control is a method that is developed from a synchronous...

With the rapid development of science and technology, high-resolution remote sensing cameras are now widely used in various fields. At the beginning of camera attitude adjustment, residual torque due to state changes can affect platform stability and...

Due to the lack of comparative studies between discontinuous pulse-width modulation and model predictive control methods for reducing switching losses in two-level three-phase voltage source inverter, a comparative analysis of a generalized discontin...

In this paper, a time-varying formation tracking protocol for second-order multi-sgent systems (MASs) is presented. The time-varying formation considers translation, rotation, and scaling of the geometric pattern that defines the formation. The contr...
