The longitudinal vibration of the bottom drill string is violent and the law is complex during the deep well drilling. The vibration of the drill string brings many adverse effects on the drilling pipe fracture and bit trampoling. Generally speaking, the effective way to control the vibration of drill string is to install damping device in bottom hole. The research group proposes a device that uses the longitudinal vibration energy of the deep well drill string to modulate the impact dynamic load, which converts the vibration energy of the downhole drill string that is not conducive to drilling into the mechanical impact energy that improves the rock breaking capacity of the bit. The impact load modulation device can use the drill string to apply the "mechanical WOB" and the differential pressure between the upper and lower piston to produce the "hydraulic WOB", The simulation results show that the adjustable range of output load is 2 ~ 7T, and the change of each time is about 2T. The modulation law of impact load under the influence of longitudinal vibration of drill string and different parameters is analyzed. Through ground experiment and simulation, the damping performance and speed-up effect of the modulation device are compared and analyzed, and the impact load output characteristics of the device are analyzed, which provides a thinking for the design of damping and pressurization tools.

Aiming at the problem that the exiting human skeleton-based action recognition methods cannot fully extract the relevant information before and after the action, resulting in low utilization efficiency of skeleton points, we propose a two-layer LSTM (long short term memory) network with attention mechanism.

In order to improve the performance of the refrigeration system, researchers have introduced nano-refrigerant and nano-lubricating oil into the latest development of airconditioning system. However, explaining the role of nano-particles based on the physical phenomena affecting the vapor compression refrigeration system (VCRS) has been limited in experiments. Therefore, this paper reviews the mechanism of using nano-refrigerant and nano-lubricating oil to improve the performance of VCRS, discusses the compression work of the refrigeration system using nano-refrigerant and nano-lubricating oil and VCRS performance parameters such as COP and COF, and relates them to the overall performance of the system. The results show that the main factors affecting the performance of VCRS are heat transfer enhancement, refinement of the characteristics of cold oil mixture and improvement of tribological properties. The influence of nano-refrigerant and nano-lubricating oil on heat transfer, cold oil mixture and tribological properties of VCRS improves the overall performance of VCRS. Therefore, nano-refrigerant and nano-lubricant are expected to be the best choice to improve the efficiency of VCRS.

A novel control strategy of synchronous compensators and converters is proposed to increase the ability of line commutated converter (LCC) based HVDC systems to successfully recover from commutation failures (CFs). The dynamic var support is one of the most important factors, which impact the commutation process. Many synchronous compensators have been implemented to enhance the transient voltage stability for improving the CF recovery performance. However, the traditional automatic voltage regulator (AVR) of synchronous compensator may not be suitable for the commutation voltage support, because the transient var demand of converters during the CF recovery is neglected. In our work, the voltage control will be adaptively adjusted, depending on the state of converters. Case studies based on simulations in PSCAD/EMTDC show that the proposed strategy can improve the performance of fault recovery from CF.

Therefore, the convolutional neural network (CNN)-based intelligent recognition algorithm for negative image of weld defects is proposed, and a B/S (Browser/Server) architecture of weld defect feature image database combined with CNN is established subsequently, which converted from the existing CNN by the migration learning method. It makes full use of the negative big data and simplifies the algorithm development process, so that the recognition algorithm has a better generalization ability and the training algorithm accuracy of 97.18% achieved after training. The results of the comparison experiments with traditional recognition algorithms show that the CNN-based intelligent recognition algorithm for defective weld negatives has an accuracy of 92.31% for dichotomous defects, which is significantly better than the traditional recognition algorithm, the established recognition algorithm effectively improving the recognition accuracy and achieving multi-category defect recognition. At the same time, the CNN-based defect recognition method was established by combining the image segmentation algorithm and the defect intelligent recognition algorithm, which was applied to the actual negative images in the field with good results, further verifying the feasibility of CNN-based intelligent recognition algorithm in the field of defect recognition of welding negative images.

Utility function of packet is often used to decide how to replicate packet in DTN networks. But this method has more uncertainty and relies on a single performance metric. For this problem, in order to reduce the impact of a single metric uncertainty, multiple utility metrics are introduced in the new algorithm. A packet replication probability calculation method based on entropy weight is designed. By calculating the entropy weight of each metric, the algorithm obtains the replication probability of each packet and takes the probability as the priority of packet replication. Because of considering the two metrics of packet expected transmission delay and node encounter possibility, the algorithm effectively reduces the influence of encounter time distribution problem and direction prediction problem in the original algorithm, and reduces the uncertainty of utility function. Simulation results show that the algorithm reduces the packet replication number and the average delay, improves the successful packet delivery rate. The overall performance of the network is further improved.

Nowadays, laser communication has received great achievements owing to its advantages, e.g., large channel capacity, easy miniaturization of communication system and strong anti-interference ability in different conditions. Pulse position modulation (PPM), as an important modulation technology in laser communication system that transmit signal with lower power, is attracting much attention. However, the performance of the modulation scheme highly depends on the bandwidth of transmission. To remedy this defect of PPM, the multipulse position modulation (MPPM) scheme is proposed to increase the accuracy and bandwidth limit. This modulation scheme has stronger anti-interference ability than PPM. Therefore, there has been rising interest in studying the characteristics of the multi-PPM. In this article, we developed an appropriate mathematical model to represent a PPM transmission, analyzed the spectrum of the transmission and characterized the bandwidth of this transmission. Compared with benchmarks of MPPM scheme, its performance has been discussed. According to the analysis, MPPM strongly increases band-utilization efficiency, however PPM has a better bit error rate (BER) performance than MPPM.

Contemporarily, the Internet of Things (IoT) is recently a newly emerging technology for connecting small devices into a platform; the IoT has been an increasingly demanded front-edge technology in terms of connecting different devices using information transmission and storage technology. To adapt to the small capacities of device batteries, Bluetooth Low Energy is adopted as the protocol of communication. However, the existing standards do not have a suitable and specific error correction method. As there is no ideal information transmission channel, there must be errors that occurred during message transmission. The performance and capacity of error correction become decisive factors in evaluating how efficient the IoT communication system performs. This article uses convolutional coding—a better-performing coding scheme than block coding—to correct errors in information transmission and reception on Internet of Things devices. It is better competent to control and correct bit errors in information transmission. To achieve this goal, convolutional coding algorithms devised by Dr Justin Coon at the University of Oxford have been referred to. By simulation using MATLAB, it has been found that the error rate is enhanced significantly for high Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) in convolutional codes compared to uncoded messages.

In the process of site selection for the deployment of distributed systems, in order to solve the problem of inaccurate spatial isolation simulation results caused by the large influence of complex geographic information such as terrain and weather on the propagation of radio waves, and to solve the problem of inefficient and inefficient spatial isolation testing. This paper proposes to select suitable propagation models for different geographical information in different regions, clarifies the simulation calculation method, and proposes a test method to accurately determine the direction of the transceiver antenna for the minimum spatial isolation.

This paper discusses the setting of transceiver based on functional programming, and decouples the differences between communication protocol and network transmission protocol from the specific business implementation. In the actual application, the service implementation is set up. When the communication protocol changes, the function can be realized only by modifying the communication protocol, which improves the readability of the program and reduces its maintenance overhead

When the rocket uses low-orbit satellite space-based measurement and control, due to the relatively large Doppler shift in relative motion, a spread spectrum system is needed to improve anti-interference; the spread spectrum signal under high dynamic conditions often uses partial matched filtering based on FFT (PMF-FFT) algorithm, but due to the introduction of FFT, this algorithm has serious scallop loss, which affects the system's capture performance. Through the improved method of adding a Hamming window to the system, theoretical analysis and simulation show that it effectively suppresses scallops. Loss has a certain meaning for the acquisition of spread spectrum signals.

An adaptive optics system can measure and compensate the wavefront distortion caused by dynamic disturbance in real time. It is usually used for astronomical observation and other occasions. According to the current technology, it is only suitable for small field of view optical system or point target, but not for ground extended target detection. In order to solve this problem, a correction method is proposed: firstly, the sub aperture image of wavefront sensor is divided into several sub regions, each sub region corresponds to a certain light direction or field angle range; secondly, calculate the offset of the image feature points in each sub region, and an image with good correction effect in a field of view in this direction is obtained; the last step is to measure each sub region one by one and combine these images into a full frame image. Through comparison, it is found that the method proposed in this paper is essentially to divide the extended target into multiple point light sources for correction.

Considering the end effect, the three-dimensional finite element calculation model of the magnetic coupling is established. The three-dimensional distribution nephogram of the induced current and eddy current loss on the isolation cover is obtained, and the distribution trends of the two are consistent. The influence of size, material, and operating condition of magnetic coupling on eddy current loss is studied. The results show that the selection of isolation material with high resistivity and the reduction of isolation thickness are helpful to reduce the eddy current loss. The higher the rotating speed of the magnetic coupling, the greater the eddy current loss. At the same speed, the greater the load, the greater the magnetic declination, the smaller the eddy current loss. The research results can provide a reference for reducing energy loss and cooling structure design of magnetic coupling.

In order to improve distribution equipment reliability and emergency repair response speed, a distribution equipment monitoring system based on Internet of things and multi-agent is designed by building a hierarchical model. The system is based on the power Internet of things, which is divided into sensing layer, device layer and data center layer. The sensing layer realizes multi-source data acquisition through sensors and acquisition devices; the device layer deploys edge computing agents to realize device-level monitoring; and the data center layer deploys coordinating agents to realize system-level analysis. The dual-way communication is used to realize data transmission between up layer and down layer. The system has the characteristics of distribution, autonomy and multi-objective interaction, which can meet and adapt to the demand and development trend of intelligent operation and maintenance of distribution equipment.

In this study, based on Galerkin discretization and frequency splitting, the forced vibration response of a large span cable with time periodic tension is approached as a closed-form solution, i.e. a special trigonometric series with mode functions. According to the principle of modulation feedback, the forced vibration response solution can be expressed as a series of linear combination of external excitation frequency and parametric excitation frequency with modes. Using orthogonality relation, the formula of forced vibration response approach is obtained. Investigations show that the presented approach computes the forced vibration response with higher accuracy. Therefore, this study is available to analyze the vibration of a large span cable with time periodic tension, and the characteristics of vibration response could be used as an important information source for the failure diagnosis and the health monitoring of cable structure.

This paper presents a multi-point strain monitoring method based on distributed sensors, which can monitor the multi-point stress of prestressed tendons in concrete. Firstly, the special sensor protection device is installed in the designated position of the component. Then, the sensor is placed in the device and attached to the monitored prestressing tendon. After concrete pouring, the device can form a closed space around the sensor to ensure that the sensor can freely expand and move in a small range when the prestressed tendon is tensioned. The proposed method is applied to the monitoring of the construction period and initial operation period of a large-span spatial structure, and the research results show that the method proposed in this paper can well realize the multi-point monitoring of the prestressed tendon strain in the concrete, and effectively solve the engineering problems; through the analysis of the long-term monitoring data, we can accurately grasp the influence of each construction condition on the structure stress, and clarify the actual stress state and long-term change trend of the structure. The obtained monitoring data play a positive role in guiding the construction of prestressed structure, and the construction safety can be objectively evaluated by analyzing the monitoring data.
