The advantages of mechanical compliance have driven the development of devices using new smart materials. A new kind of magnetorheological piston based on a toroidal array of magnetorheological valves, has been previously tested to prove its feasibility. However, being an initial prototype its potential was still limited by its complex design, and low output force. This study presents the revisions...
Traditional barcode recognition algorithm usually do not fit the cylindrical code but the one on flat surface. This paper proposes a low-cost approach to implement recognition of the curved QR codes printed on bottles or cans. Finder patterns are extracted from detecting module width proportion and corners of contours and an efficient direct least-square ellipse fitting method is employed to extract...
Microgrid Reconfiguration is one of the most important ways to response to regional power supply and security problem in isolated environment, and to improve load support when emergency of power system happens. This paper presents a MAS (Multi-Agent System) based approach for microgrid reconfiguration in order to minimize the loss of load under system constraints and unit constraints. Each bus has...
Considering the diversity of the LTE traffic Qos and the variable channel coverage caused by the time-frequency two-dimensional structure, a reasonable scheduling algorithm is proposed to enable the coverage of queues as large and close as possible and guarantee traffic Qos. Simulation results show that the new algorithm can ensure the coverage of channels as large and close as possible, while meet...
