On the Impact of Wireless Communications on Controlling a Two-Dimensional Gantry System
2019
Abstract Industrial wireless is essential to achieve the vision of future manufacturing systems which are highly dynamic and reconfigurable, and communicate large amounts of data. Main challenges of wireless deployment include the stochastic nature of the wireless channels and the harsh industrial transmission environment. In this work, a typical two-dimensional gantry system is controlled by a local controller which receives G-code commands wirelessly over a Wi-Fi network. The industrial wireless channel is replicated using a radio frequency (RF) channel emulator where various scenarios are considered and various wireless channel parameters are studied. The movement of the gantry system to…
New key based on tilted lenses for optical encryption
2016
A novel concept based on tilted spherical lenses for optical encryption using Lohmann’s type I systems is presented. The tilt angle of the spherical lenses is used as an encrypted key and the decryption performance is studied both qualitatively (visual image degradation) and quantitatively (mean squared error analysis) by numerical simulations. The paper presents a general mathematical framework in virtue of the dioptric power matrix formalism and oblique central refraction used in the optometry field. Computer simulations show that image information cannot be retrieved after a few degrees of tilt on both spherical lenses in the encryption system. In addition, a preliminary experiment is pr…
Extended scale-invariant pattern recognition with white-light illumination.
2000
A previous method of obtaining scale-invariance detection with white-light illumination has been improved on. We were able to detect different scaled versions of the target up to a magnification factor equal to 2. We simultaneously detected several versions in the same scene, because each scale factor is codified in a different wavelength. Experimental results demonstrate the proposed technique and show the utility of the method.
Real filter based on Mellin radial harmonics for scale-invariant pattern recognition.
1994
Several theoretical and experimental studies are developed in order to simplify the construction of filters based on Mellin radial harmonics (MRH) for scale-invariant pattern recognition. A real filter based on MRH is designed. The impulse response of the filter is a hermitic function, obtained by a suitable modification of a MRH component. This real filter has the same scale invariance as the conventional complex MRH filters, with the main advantage of its simplicity. Both computer simulations and optical experiments are presented.
Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) Representation in Predictive Model Markup Language (PMML)
2017
International audience; This paper describes Gaussian process regression (GPR) models presented in predictive model markup language (PMML). PMML is an extensible-markup-language (XML) -based standard language used to represent data-mining and predictive analytic models, as well as pre- and post-processed data. The previous PMML version, PMML 4.2, did not provide capabilities for representing probabilistic (stochastic) machine-learning algorithms that are widely used for constructing predictive models taking the associated uncertainties into consideration. The newly released PMML version 4.3, which includes the GPR model, provides new features: confidence bounds and distribution for the pred…
State Space-Vector Model of Linear Induction Motors Including End-effects and Iron Losses - Part II: Model Identification and Results
2020
This is the second part of an article, divided into two parts, dealing with the definition of a space-vector dynamic model of the linear induction motor (LIM) taking into consideration both the dynamic end-effects and the iron losses as well as the offline identification of its parameters. This second part is devoted to the description of an identification technique that has been suitably developed for the estimation of the electrical parameters of the LIM dynamic model accounting for both the dynamic end-effects and iron losses. Such an identification technique is strictly related to the state formulation of the proposed model and exploits genetic algorithms for minimizing a suitable cost …
Automated Uncertainty Quantification Through Information Fusion in Manufacturing Processes
2017
International audience; Evaluation of key performance indicators (KPIs) such as energy consumption is essential for decision-making during the design and operation of smart manufacturing systems. The measurements of KPIs are strongly affected by several uncertainty sources such as input material uncertainty, the inherent variability in the manufacturing process, model uncertainty, and the uncertainty in the sensor measurements of operational data. A comprehensive understanding of the uncertainty sources and their effect on the KPIs is required to make the manufacturing processes more efficient. Towards this objective, this paper proposed an automated methodology to generate a hierarchical B…
Ranking of occupational health and safety risks by a multi-criteria perspective: Inclusion of human factors and application of VIKOR
2021
Nowadays, the Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) is more and more recognized as a crucial process to be properly managed and continuously improved by every organization. Primarily addressed to prevent workers’ injuries and diseases, it positively impacts on productivity, competitiveness and reputation as well as it con-tributes to cost savings in general. OHS management is grounded upon the risk assessment results, on the basis of which defining corrective measures to be taken to reduce risks to acceptable values. In this regard, the paper proposes a Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) based methodology addressed to the occupational risks prioritization. In order to overcome the shortco…
¿Cómo funciona el sistema de innovación del sector cerámico español?
2013
[EN]: In this article we apply the functions of innovation systems framework to assess its appropriateness to characterise the innovation activity of the tile industry in Castellón. This framework is based on idea that a well functioning innovation system requires that a number of key activities take place. If this occurs innovative output is higher. Our analysis provides a deeper understanding of the role of innovation as a strategic option in a mature industry in the context of globalisation. By applying this new theoretical approach to study innovation and highlighting the functions that the system requires, we shown the constraints, inertias, challenges and opportunities that the innova…
Real-Time Power Flow Monitoring and Control System for Microgrids Integration in Islanded Scenarios
2019
This article presents an enhanced system for real-time power flow monitoring and control (PFMC) for microgrids integration in medium-voltage (MV) distribution networks. The developed solution includes both system architecture and the monitoring and control algorithms, and it has low implementation and installation costs. It is based on the use of hardware and software solutions previously proposed by the authors, i.e., a distributed measurement, a control and communication architecture, and a supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) software, which have been enhanced and integrated for the considered application. The SCADA implements a load flow (LF) algorithm for real-time power fl…
