Abstract:Based on an analysis of the working principles of the hydraulic variable pitch system of a wind turbine, a novel Petri net model and reliability evaluation method are proposed. First, Petri net theory is adopted to build a model for each discrete state of the operation of the hydraulic pitch system of the wind turbine and at the same time a fault Petri net model is established. Then through qualitative analysis and quantitative calculations based on the fault Petri net, the system reliability indexes are obtained. During the qualitative analysis process, in order to more conveniently find the minimal cut sets of the fault Petri net, a Visual C++ 6.0-based algorithm is compiled and the minimal cut sets are tested correctly with another method. During the quantitative calculation process, the fault probability has been obtained from the equations according to the fault probability of libraries and transitions between different states. Not only does the proposed Petri net describe the structure, function and operation of the hydraulic pitch system with a graphic language, but the fault Petri net model can also clearly express the logical relations among faults. The novel Petri net model offers simple calculations and the prospect of broad applicability and the new reliability evaluation method provides an important reference for the performance evaluation of these systems.

In this paper, a sliding mode (SM)-based online fault compensation control scheme is investigated for modular reconfigurable robots (MRRs) with actuator failures via adaptive dynamic programming. It consists of a SM-based iterative controller, an adaptive robust term and an online fault compensator. For fault-free MRR systems, the SM surface-based Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman equation is solved by online policy iteration algorithm. The adaptive robust term is added to guarantee the reachable condition of SM surface. For faulty MRR systems, the actuator failure is compensated online to avoid the fault detection and isolation mechanism. The closed-loop MRR system is guaranteed to be asymptotically stable under the developed fault compensation control scheme. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of the present fault compensation control approach.

To further analyze the torque characteristics of the electromagnetic piezoelectric hybrid-drive 3-degree-of-freedom motor. First, the principle and basic structure of the hybrid-drive motor are introduced, and the displacement and pressure distribution of the stator-rotor contact surface are obtained by analytical method. Based on this, the torque model of the piezoelectric stator-drive motor is obtained. Then, the air-gap magnetic field model of the permanent magnet rotor is obtained by analytical method, and the electromagnetic stator-torque model is obtained. Finally, the torque model of the electromagnetic piezoelectric hybrid-drive 3-degree-of-freedom motor is established by vector synthesis. The effects of piezoelectric stator mounting position angle, stator-rotor contact materials, and preload on motor torque are analyzed by simulation. The advantages of electromagnetic piezoelectric hybrid drive are analyzed, and the rationality of the model is preliminarily verified. It lays the foundation for further optimization design and performance improvement of electromagnetic piezoelectric hybrid-drive 3-degree-of-freedom motor.
