Finite-time Mittag—Leffler synchronization of fractional-order complex-valued memristive neural networks with time delay

Without dividing the complex-valued systems into two real-valued ones, a class of fractional-order complex-valued memristive neural networks (FCVMNNs) with time delay is investigated. Firstly, based on the complex-valued sign function, a novel complex-valued feedback controller is devised to research such systems. Under the framework of Filippov solution, differential inclusion theory and Lyapunov stability theorem, the finite-time Mittag—Leffler synchronization (FTMLS) of FCVMNNs with time delay can be realized. Meanwhile, the upper bound of the synchronization settling time (SST) is less conservative than previous results. In addition, by adjusting controller parameters, the global asymptotic synchronization of FCVMNNs with time delay can also be realized, which improves and enrich some existing results. Lastly, some simulation examples are designed to verify the validity of conclusions.     

Dynamics modeling and stability of robotic systems with discrete-time force control

This paper investigates the dynamic behavior of robotic echanical systems with discrete-time force control. Force control is associated with the constrained motion of a mechanical system. A novel approach is presented to analyze the stability and performance based on the separation of constrained and admissible motions. This results in a model representing the dynamics of the constrained motion of the system. The analysis connects the complex nonlinear model of a mechanical system to a set of abstract delayed oscillators. These oscillator models make it possible to perform a detailed closed-form mathematical analysis of the stability behavior. A planar two-degree-of-freedom (DoF) mechanism is presented as an example to illustrate the material. Results are illustrated by stability charts in the parameter space of mechanical parameters, control gains and the sampling rate.     

Assessment of High Speed Imaging Systems for 2D and 3D Deformation Measurements: Methodology Development and Validation

Ultra high-speed and moderate speed image acquisition platforms have been characterized, with special emphasis on the variability and accuracy of the measurements obtained when employed in either 2D or 3D computer vision systems for deformation and shape measurements. Specifically, the type of image distortions present in both single channel cameras (HS-CMOS) and multi-channel image intensified cameras (UHS-ICCD) are quantified as part of the overall study, and their effect on the accuracy of experimental measurements obtained using digital image correlation have been determined. Results indicate that established methods for noise suppression and recently developed models for distortion correction can be used effectively in situations where the primary intensity noise components are characterized by minimal cross-talk and stationary spatial distortions. Baseline uniaxial tension experiments demonstrate that image correlation measurements using high speed imaging systems are unbiased and consistent with independent deformation measurements over the same length scale, with point-to-point strain variations that are similar to results obtained from translation experiments. In this study, the point-to-point variability in strain using the image intensified system is on the order of 0.001, whereas the non-intensified system had variability of 0.0001. Results confirm that high speed imaging systems can be utilized for full field two and three-dimensional measurements using digital image correlation methods.

Dynamic tensile characterization of pig skin

The strain-rate dependent response of porcine skin oriented in the fiber direction is explored under tensile loading. Quasi-static response was obtained at strain rates in the range of 10-3s-1to 25 s-1. Characterization of the response at even greater strain rates is accomplished by measuring the spatio-temporal evolution of the particle velocity and strain in a thin strip subjected to high speed impact loading that generates uniaxial stress conditions. These experiments indicate the formation of shock waves; the shock Hugoniot that relates particle velocity to the shock velocity and the dynamic stress to dynamic strain is obtained directly through experimental measurements, without any assumptions regarding the constitutive properties of the material.     

Passive control and synchronization of hyperchaotic Chen system

This paper investigates the control and synchronization of hyperchaotic Chen system based on the passive theory. By using two outputs, novel passive controllers are respectively designed to realize the globally asymptotical stability of the hyperchaotic Chen system and the error dynamical system, which avoids mistakes in Ref.[11], where function W（z） cannot guarantee that fo（z） is globally asymptotically stable via only one output and W（z） is the Lyapunov function of f0（z）. Furthermore, numerical simulations are given to show the effectiveness of our method.

A simple method of contrast enhancement and extremum extraction for interference fringes

A method of interference fringe processing by finding the average and the extremum gray levels of image points within a fixed or varying window and then computing the modified image intensity with a simple algorithm is proposed. This method can yield a uniform brightness and high (1 or near to 1) contrast at the same time over the whole image area for an input pattern with low contrast and considerable luminance variation, when a relatively large window is used. It can also perform extremum extraction if a small window is employed. This technique is simple, effective and convenient for use, as has been verified by a series of examples of simulated and experimental fringe processing.
