Novel robust simultaneous localization and mapping for long-term autonomous robots Research Articles

Wei WEI, Xiaorui ZHU, Yi WANG,weirui9003@gmail.com,xiaoruizhu@hit.edu.cn,wangyi601@aliyun.com

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2022, Volume 23, Issue 2,   Pages 234-245 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.2000358

Abstract: In this paper, we propose a novel robust visual inertial navigation (VILN) SLAM system, including stereovisual-inertial LiDaR odometry and visual-LiDaR loop closure.The proposed VILN SLAM system can perform well with low drift after experiments, even when the LiDaRor visual measurements are degraded occasionally in complex scenes.

Modeling and analysis of controllable output property of cantilever-beam inertial sensors based on magnetic

Guixiong LIU, Peiqiang ZHANG, Chen XU

Frontiers of Mechanical Engineering 2009, Volume 4, Issue 2,   Pages 129-133 doi: 10.1007/s11465-009-0035-8

Abstract: Magnetic fluid is first introduced into the traditional cantilever-beam senor. Based on the property of the cantilever-beam and the novel controllable mag-viscosity of magnetic fluid, the output of cantilever-beam sensors is under control so that the controllable output of the sensors can be realized. The mathematical model of the sensors is established and analyzed. The dynamic control function and the following educational results, which include the two curves of the displacement ratio and phase function with the different damping ratio and frequency ratio, are obtained based on the model. The result shows that it is valid to realize the controllable output of the sensors by controlling the viscosity of the magnetic fluid, and finally the expanded measurement range can be realized.

Embankment dam foundation analysis for the decrease of internal erosion likelihood

Marc SMITH

Frontiers of Structural and Civil Engineering 2012, Volume 6, Issue 4,   Pages 431-436 doi: 10.1007/s11709-012-0183-5

Abstract: A zoned embankment dam is founded on clay underlain by a sand deposit. Major seepage phenomena were noticed in the foundation downstream from the dam where the vertical seepage forces in the sand layer were expected to exceed the downward forces due to the overlying clay. Modern technologies were applied to delineate critical zones to help design optimal rehabilitation measures. A global electromagnetic survey was carried out to detect and map the main sources, pathways and exits of seepage. Based on these global findings, a more detailed analysis was then conducted to identify zones where thickness of the foundation clay is minimal, pore pressures in sand are higher and thus where the factor of safety against uplift is lower and internal erosion is more likely to occur. Clay thickness evaluation required the determination of land surface as well as clay-sand contact elevations. A laser airborne survey was performed to model the land surface elevation. Data concerning the clay-sand contact elevation came from the interpreted stratigraphy based on a series of boreholes and cone penetration tests. This data was combined in a geostatistical model along with the measured piezometric levels in the foundation. This resulted in a contour map showing factors of safety against uplift over the entire downstream area. The use of modern technologies, namely electromagnetic and laser surveys as well as geostatistical tools, was instrumental in defining the limits of an otherwise spread-out problem and to provide an optimal solution, in terms of costs and effectiveness, for the long-term stabilization of the foundation.
