Abstract:This study demonstrates the use of a Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) vortex retarder-based Yb-Doped Fiber (YDF) MOPA system with nanosecond pulse output to achieve efficient generation of a radially polarized beam from fiber lasers. The LCP vortex half-wave plate was employed as a mode converter after the MOPA laser to efficiently convert the high-peak-power, narrow-linewidth, linearly polarized nanosecond Gaussian pulse signal into a Laguerre-Gaussian beam with a hollow-ring distribution of transverse intensity using the spatial phase conversion method. When the MOPA system consisted of a narrow-linewidth continuous seed source, an electro-optical intensity modulator and a five-stage YDF amplifier were built up. A stable LP01 mode output with an average power of 20.1 W was obtained from the MOPA system. Subsequently, an LCP vortex half-wave plate was adopted as a spatial mode converter and a radially polarized beam output with a maximum average output power of 19.5 W, pulse width of 10 ns, and perfect hollow-ring transverse intensity was obtained at a repetition rate of 10 kHz. The mode purity measured by the PBS method is about 88.5%, which indicates that the radially polarized beam obtained has the advantages of high efficiency and high mode purity. This work can establish the foundation for the practical and highly efficient applications of radially polarized beams in the field of optical trapping, high-resolution imaging, and materials processing.
Abstract:The non-destructive testing of the non-uniformity of films is important in the preparation of large-area, high-quality infrared transparent films. In this study, a method is proposed to obtain the thickness and refractive index non-uniformity of the film. In the experiments, an infrared Ge-Sb-Se chalcogenide film was prepared on a silicon dioxide substrate using magnetron sputtering. The transmission spectra of 36 areas with a size of 80 μm×80 μm were measured using a microscopic Fourier infrared spectrometer. Further, the background noise was filtered out with the segmentation filtering method. Finally, the thickness and refractive index of each area were calculated using the improved Swanepoel method, and the non-uniformity of the film was accurately obtained by comparing the test results from different areas. The results indicate that the calculation accuracy of the film non-uniformity is better than 0.5%.

Likewise, the influence of dust weather on aerosol optical parameters was analyzed. The results show that the atmospheric cleanliness in Delingha area is high, 24% of optical thickness is distributed below 0.2, and the source of aerosol is single and dominated by large particles. Similarly, 39% of the wavelength index in Hefei area is distributed between 0.8—1.0, the real part of refractive index does not change significantly with wavelength, and the source of aerosol is complex and dominated by small particles. Finally, 54% of optical thickness in Maoming area is concentrated around 0.5, and the distribution area is complex stability. In dust weather, the increase of large particles is the main reason for the increase in aerosol optical thickness.
Abstract:Research on spectrum separation in a turbulent environment using an Independent Component Analysis (ICA) algorithm of natural gradient descent is carried out to investigate the turbulence generated by heat or blades in giant wind turbines. When the main wind is distinguished from a mixed signal with turbulence, the efficiency of wind turbines in a wind field increases. Firstly, the backscattering characteristics and spectrum distribution of turbulence signals are analyzed. Then, the ICA model is designed according to these characteristics. As the simulation results meeting the requirements, a wind speed detection of outdoor binocular lidar antenna and the wind spectrum separation effect of the detection are carried out. The results show that under the condition with refractive index structure constantCn2≤10-14 and generalized atmospheric constant α≥4, the turbulence center and main wind speed can be separated using binocular signals. Statistical analysis of the fluctuation range of the two peaks in 1 s shows the estimated central wind speed of (2.59±0.05) MHz and estimated turbulence center of (1.22±0.19) MHz. The average signal-to-noise ratio of the two peaks is 25.93 dB and 31.01 dB, respectively, which meet the requirements for obtaining stable center wind speed and relatively stable turbulence center estimates.

Abstract:Aiming at the difficult to detect arbitrary-angle weld defects, a Magneto-Optical (MO) imaging Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) system for weld defects excited by different magnetic fields was studied. The mechanism of the alternating magnetic field generated by the U-shaped yoke and the rotating magnetic field produced by the plane cross yoke was introduced. The MO imaging effects of different weld defects excited by alternating/rotating magnetic field were compared. The relationship between imaging characteristics of MO images and magnetic field strength was analyzed based on the Faraday rotation effect. The gray value of MO image can match the corresponding leakage magnetic field strength. The principal component analysis method was used to extract the grayscale features of the fused image column pixels and the texture features of the MO image were extracted by the gray-level co-occurrence matrix. A BP neural network model and a support vector machine model were established to identify these defect features. Experimental results show that the classification accuracy of the BP neural network model and the support vector machine model can reach 94.1% and 98.6% respectively under the excitation of rotating magnetic field. Compared with the alternating magnetic field, the classification accuracy is improved by 10.7% and 8.5%, respectively. MO imaging under rotating magnetic field excitation overcomes the limitation of directional detection of MO imaging under traditional magnetic field excitation, and realizes the detection and classification of arbitrary-angle weld defects.

Abstract:The current harmonic components of permanent magnet synchronous linear motors are high due to back electromotive force and frequent switching of inverters. Moreover, disturbances such as time-varying parameters and sudden load changes seriously affect the control accuracy of servo systems. Therefore, a double closed-loop active disturbance rejection servo control algorithm, based on a reduced-order state observer, was presented to improve the harmonic suppression and control precision of control systems. First, the second-order active disturbance rejection controller of a position-speed loop was constructed. The pole placement method was used to reduce the order of the third-order linear extended state observer. This operation reduced the influence of phase lag and improves the control precision of the servo system. Second, the current loop first-order nonlinear active disturbance rejection controller was employed to eliminate the influence of integral saturation and reduce the harmonic content of the three-phase current. Finally, compared with other optimization algorithms based on active disturbance rejection control (ADRC), the experiments show that the THD of reduced-order double closed-loop ADRC is less than 2.13%, the thrust fluctuation can be reduced to 1.49%, and the steady-state error is less than 15 μm under multiple conditions.

Abstract:The nonlinear vibration of the silicon micro-resonator accelerometer can cause the vibration amplitude noise to couple to the frequency output and deteriorate the noise performance of the device. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the nonlinear vibration characteristics of the resonant accelerometer and optimize the design to extend the linear vibration range. In this paper, the simulation and experimental analysis of a Silicon micro-Resonant Accelerometer (SRA) based on comb-tooth structure and vibration beam were designed. Firstly, the nonlinear simulation analysis was carried out on the accelerometer structure using COMSOL simulation software. By applying a static force in the vibration direction of the resonant beam, the relationship between force and displacement is obtained, and the nonlinear cubic term coefficient k3, eff was calculated. The ratio of k3, eff to the linear coefficient keff is approximately 2.13 × 1010 m-2. Then the Double-End fixed-duty Tuning Fork (DETF) was subjected to frequency sweep test to obtain the nonlinear vibration frequency response curve of DETF. According to the Duffing equation, the experimental data is fitted. The ratio of the nonlinear cubic term coefficientk3, eff and the linear coefficient keff of the two DETFs of the device is 2.24×1010 m-2 and 2.19×1010 m-2. The errors between the simulated and tested values for k3, eff and keff are 5.2% and 2.8%, respectively. The experimental results agree well with the simulated values, which confirm the validity of the simulation method and the reliability of the test data. The designed resonant accelerometer was analyzed nonlinearly when the amplitude was less than 35.4 nm, DETF works in the linear region, which can provide reference for the design of the control circuit of the subsequent resonant add-on.

Abstract:To address the problems regarding low efficiency, low accuracy, and high cost of brake master cylinder compensation hole measurement, a high-performance precision detection scheme based on optomechatronics was developed. After analyzing the error sources, an equation for error calculation with regard to brake master cylinder compensation hole measurement was derived. The analysis of the position measurement error led to the deduction of an incremental error compensation model, and an experiment was conducted for validation of the model. The experimental results show that the influence of vertical axis error on the measurement data for compensation hole diameter is minimal; however, it has significant influence on the position measurement data. The results show that the position accuracy of the compensation hole in ZDZG-20.64 standard part is improved by 0.05 mm and 0.254 mm. For ZDZG-22.2 standard part, the position accuracy is improved by 0.044 mm and 0.072 mm. The error model and compensation method can effectively improve the position detection accuracy of the brake master cylinder compensation hole.
Abstract:When the structure of an aerostatic bearing is inappropriate or the working parameters are not optimal, air hammer instability can occur easily. Hence, the mechanism of air hammer instability of aerostatic bearings based on phase-induced vibration was investigated in this study. Based on the phase relationship between the working pressure and air film thickness in aerostatic bearings with time, a theoretical model of the self-excited instability of the aerostatic bearings based on phase-induced vibration was established. Furthermore, the phase change of the working pressure and air film thickness of the aerostatic bearing were analyzed. The theoretical analysis and experimental results indicate that duringthe air hammer of the aerostatic thrust bearings, the working pressure phase and air film thickness constantly varies, and the air hammer occurs when the phase difference is 180°.This indicates that the cause of air hammer can be explained from the phase. This study further improves the mechanism of self-excited instability of the aerostatic bearings and provides a new method for the analysis of the mechanism and suppression of the air hammer instability of the aerostatic bearings.

Abstract:Hysteresis nonlinearities in the entire working range of piezoelectric ceramic actuators often result in reduced system accuracy, oscillations, and system instability. For a periodic sinusoidal input signal, a hysteresis modeling method based on a fractional-order operator was proposed herein. First, based on the analysis of piezoelectric and fractional-order operator characteristics, a fractional-order operator involving a simple structure and few parameters was used to describe the hysteresis characteristics of piezoelectric ceramics. Subsequently, a piezoelectric actuated micro-displacement positioning experimental platform based on dSpace was built. Finally, a fractional-order-operator-based hysteresis modeling method was applied to the piezoelectric actuated micro-displacement positioning platform to identify the hysteretic nonlinear characteristics of piezoelectric ceramics. The experimental results show that the Fractional-Order hysteresis Model (FOM) is superior to the traditional Prandtl-Ishlinskii Model (PIM) and the Enhanced Prandtl-Ishlinskii model (EPIM). In the low-frequency range, the precision of the FOM is slightly higher than that of the PIM and EPIM models; however, in the high-frequency range, the precision of the FOM model is significantly higher than that of the PIM and EPIM models. When the input frequency is 100 Hz, the accuracy of the proposed FOM is 69.84% and 68.88% higher than that of the PIM and EPIM models on the root mean square error, respectively.
Abstract:Adhesive bonding technology faces challenges regarding achievement of pL-magnitude ultra-micro dispensing in narrow spaces. To address this problem, a pL-magnitude ultra-micro automatic dispenser was designed in this study. The transfer-type sealing method was adopted, and a dispensing needle was driven to traverse through a glass microtube with loading glue; adherence was achieved with a micro-droplet. Subsequently, the micro-droplet could be partly transported to the target surface. The dispenser, which was 65 mm in total length and had a minimum resolution of 0.24 μm/step and a maximum stroke of 7 mm, was linked to the upper computer via a USB interface, using which the dispensing process was controlled. An experimental platform was constructed, and a manual micro-positioning platform with a resolution of 10 μm was used to load a micro-ball with a micro-hole drilled on its surface. Four CCD microscopes were used to detect the position of the micro-hole and provide visual feedback to the operator. An electronic micro-positioning platform with a resolution of 0.2 μm was also employed to hold the dispenser and transport it seamlessly to the correctposition for holesealing. After the hole-sealing process was completed, two optical microscopes were used to measure the size of the glue spot and assess the quality of the holesealing. Many experiments were conducted to study the performance of the dispenser. Subsequently, the dispenser was also used to seal micro-holes of diameters varying from 5 to 20μm in a narrow seal cavity with a diameter of 170 mm and length of 350 mm. Experimental results indicate that the glue dispenser enables excellent repeatability rates and effective covering and insertion for holesealing. When the dispensing needle′s size and typeas well as the moving speed and sealing method are adjusted, it can be used to seal micro-holes with pL-magnitude-volume glue in a narrow space at different pressures. The smallest experimental glue volume was 4.4 pL, which satisfies the requirement and enables effective sealing in a narrow space.

Abstract:To register infrared-visible video sequences precisely inalmost-planar scenes, an automatic registration method based on matching the contour features was proposed in this paper. This method could solve the challenging problem regarding extracting and matching features in multimodal images by iteratively matching the contour features of targets. First, this method adopted the technology of moving target detection to identify the contours of targets and extracted the contour feature points with the corner detection algorithm of Curvature Scale Space(CSS). Then, the global shape context descriptors and the local histogram of edge orientation descriptors were established to describe the features; theseareuseful forreliable feature matching. The matched feature pairs from different times were reserved in a reservoir based on the Gaussian distance criterion. Finally, to overcome the influence of target depth variationin almost-planar scenes, the loss function of the registration matrix was calculated by incorporating the strategy of randomly sampling foreground samples, after which the global registration matrix was updated. The method was validated using the LITIV dataset, and the results demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms state-of-the-art methods. The average overlap error of our method on nine test sequences is only 0.194;this value for the compared methods demonstrate a decrease of 18.5%. This essentially satisfies the precise requirement of infrared-visible video registration in almost-planar scenes, and this method is fairly robust.

Abstract:Three-dimensional (3D) object recognition and model semantic segmentation are widely appliedin fields such as automatic driving, robot navigation, 3D printing, and intelligent transportation. With a focuson the inability of PointNet++ to integrate contextual geometric structure information, a method for recognition and segmentation of 3D point cloud modes based on a deep cascade Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) was proposed herein. The deep semantic geometric features of the point cloud could be captured via construction of a deep dynamic graph CNN. Subsequently, the deep dynamic graph CNN was applied recursively as a subnetwork of a deep cascade CNN for nested partition of the input point set for full exploration of the fine-grained geometric features of the 3D model. Finally, to address the point cloud sampling nonuniformity problem in point set feature learning, a density adaptive layer was constructed.A recurrent neural network was used to encode the multiscale neighborhood features of each sample point to capture the contextual fine-grained geometric features. The experimental results showed that the recognition accuracy of this algorithm on ModelNet40 and ModelNet10 were 91.9% and 94.3%, respectively.The mean intersection-over-union on the ShapeNet Part, S3DIS, and vKITTI datasets was 85.6%, 58.3%, and 38.6%, respectively. This algorithm can improve the accuracy of 3D point cloud recognition and model semantic segmentation, and it shows high robustness.

Abstract:Using the continuation method, it is difficult to determine the upward continuation height of the upward continuation and shortcomings of the deep source signal loss caused by continuation when the magnetic data of magnetic sources with different depths are separated. A separation method for magnetic data based on improved two-dimensional variational mode decomposition was proposed to solve the disadvantages associated with the continuation method. First, the magnetic data was separated for the first time using the best continuation height estimation method to obtain separated local and regional magnetic anomaly data.Subsequently, a two-dimensional variational modal decomposition was used to perform a second separation of the separated shallow local magnetic anomalies. The process did not need to calculate the upward continuation height and could automatically separate magnetic data at different frequencies.Finally, this method was used to identify magnetic sources with different depths. By separatingthe magnetic anomaly Bz component and converting it into magnetic gradient tensor data, the magnetic gradient tensor data for magnetic sources with different depths could be separated, and the identification of magnetic sources with different depths was obtained. The experimental results show that the correlation between the separation data of small-scale magnetic sources (26 cm height difference) and observation data for a single target in an actual measurement is greater than 0.966 4.Compared with the traditional continuation separation method, the proposed method has a higher separation accuracy and stronger anti-interference ability.
Abstract:To accelerate the forward-propagation process of deep-learning networks, a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) hardware-acceleration system for AlexNet was developed using Vivado High-Level Synthesis (HLS), which can greatly reduce the FPGA development cost. Using Vivado HLS, developers can design hardware architectures on an FPGA platform using C/C++ code instead of a hardware-description language. We implemented AlexNet on an FPGA platform using the HLS tool, and then used the PIPELINE and ARRAY_PARTITION directives to optimize the proposed system. An evaluation of the proposed system shows that its performance is three times better than a traditional computing-platform graphics processing unit (GPU). In the future, owing to the high-level encapsulation, the developed system can be easily transformed into other convolutional neural networks for practical operation, which shows its great portability and practical application value.
