The diagnosis of rolling bearing faults has become an increasingly popular research topic in recent years. However, many studies have been conducted based on sufficient training data. In the real industrial scene, there are some problems in bearing fault diagnosis, including the imbalanced ratio of normal and failure data and the amount of unlabeled data being far more than the amount of marked data. This paper presents a rolling bearing fault diagnosis method suitable for different working conditions based on simulating the real industrial scene. Firstly, the dataset is divided into the source and target domains, and the signals are transformed into pictures by continuous wavelet transform. Secondly, Wasserstein Generative Adversarial Nets-Gradient Penalty (WGAN-GP) is used to generate false sample images; then, the source domain and target domain data are input into the migration learning network with Resnet50 as the backbone for processing to extract similar features. Multi-Kernel Maximum mean discrepancies (MK-MMD) are used to reduce the edge distribution difference between the data of the source domain and the target domain. Based on Case Western Reserve University′s dataset, the feasibility of the proposed method is verified by experiments. The experimental results show that the average fault diagnosis accuracy can reach 96.58%.

This paper presents a rigid-flexible composite of bionic hand structure design scheme solution for solving the problem of low load on the soft gripping hand. The bionic hand was designed based on the Fast Pneumatic Network (FPN) approach, which can produce a soft finger bending drive mechanism. A soft finger bending driver was developed and assembled into a human-like soft gripping hand which includes a thumb for omnidirectional movement and four modular soft fingers. An experimental comparison of silicone rubber materials with different properties was conducted to determine suitable materials. The combination of 3D printing technology and mold pouring technology was adopted to complete the prototype preparation of the bionic hand. Based on the second-order Yeoh model, a soft bionic finger mathematical model was established, and ABAQUS simulation analysis software was used for correction to verify the feasibility of the soft finger bending. We adopted a pneumatic control scheme based on a motor micro-pump and developed a human–computer interface through LabView. A comparative experiment was carried out on the bending performance of the finger, and the experimental data were analyzed to verify the accuracy of the mathematical model and simulation. In this study, the control system was designed, and the human-like finger gesture and grasping experiments were carried out.

As a key component of motion support, the rolling bearing is currently a popular research topic for accurate diagnosis of bearing faults and prediction of remaining bearing life. However, most existing methods still have difficulties in learning representative features from the raw data. In this paper, the Xi’an Jiaotong University (XJTU-SY) rolling bearing dataset is taken as the research object, and a deep learning technique is applied to carry out the bearing fault diagnosis research. The root mean square (RMS), kurtosis, and sum of frequency energy per unit acquisition period of the short-time Fourier transform are used as health factor indicators to divide the whole life cycle of bearings into two phases: the health phase and the fault phase. This division not only expands the bearing dataset but also improves the fault diagnosis efficiency. The Deep Convolutional Neural Networks with Wide First-layer Kernels (WDCNN) network model is improved by introducing multi-scale large convolutional kernels and Gate Recurrent Unit (GRU) networks. The bearing signals with classified health states are trained and tested, and the training and testing process is visualized, then finally the experimental validation is performed for four failure locations in the dataset. The experimental results show that the proposed network model has excellent fault diagnosis and noise immunity, and can achieve the diagnosis of bearing faults under complex working conditions, with greater diagnostic accuracy and efficiency.

To solve the problem of poor performance of the target detection algorithm and false detection in the detection of paint surface defects of office chairs five-star feet, we propose a defect detection method based on the improved YOLOv3 algorithm. Firstly, a new feature fusion structure is designed to reduce the missed detection rate of small targets. Then we used the CIOU loss function to improve the positioning accuracy. At the same time, a parallel version of the k-means++ initialization algorithm (K-means||) is used to optimize and determine the parameters of the a priori anchor so as to improve the matching degree between the a priori anchor and the feature layer. We constructed a dataset of paint surface defects on the five-star feet of office chairs and performed optimization training, and used multiple algorithms and different datasets to conduct comparative experiments to validate the algorithm. The experimental results show that the improved YOLOv3 algorithm is effective in that the average precision on the self-made dataset reaches 88.3%, which is 5.8% higher than the original algorithm. At the same time, it has also been verified based on the Aliyun Tianchi competition aluminum dataset, and the average precision has reached 89.2%. This method realizes the real-time detection of the paint surface defects of the five-star feet of the office chair very well.

As embedded systems become increasingly complex, traditional reliability analysis methods based on text alone are no longer adequate for meeting the requirements of rapid and accurate quantitative analysis of system reliability. This article proposes a method for automatically generating and quantitatively analyzing dynamic fault trees based on an improved system model with consideration for temporal characteristics and redundancy. Firstly, an “anti-semantic” approach is employed to automatically explore the generation of fault modes and effects analysis (FMEA) from SysML models. The evaluation results are used to promptly modify the system design to meet requirements. Secondly, the Profile extension mechanism is used to expand the SysML block definition diagram, enabling it to describe fault semantics. This is combined with SysML activity diagrams to generate dynamic fault trees using traversal algorithms. Subsequently, parametric diagrams are employed to represent the operational rules of logic gates in the fault tree. The quantitative analysis of dynamic fault trees based on probabilistic models is conducted within the internal block diagram of SysML. Finally, through the design and simulation of the power battery management system, the failure probability of the top event was obtained to be 0.11981. This verifies that the design of the battery management system meets safety requirements and demonstrates the feasibility of the method.
