    According to the grinding wheel loading detection problems, a method was proposed for detecting the grinding wheel loading based on the active infrared detection technology and the thermogram segmentation technology. Three methods including the threshold segmentation, the edge detection and the region growing were used to segment the thermogram, the features like the amounts and states of the grinding wheel loading were extracted. The experimental results show that: the distribution of the grinding wheel loading swarf extracted by the threshold segmentation method presents a “segregation” phenomenon, and the selected threshold value is affected the loading features deeply. The edge detection method has overcome the “segregation” phenomenon, but there still exist some problems such as the edge is not complete and the positioning of the edge is not accurate. The results of the RGS method based on the gradient threshold filtering are more objective and accurate. The test result errors of the grinding wheel loading detection between the RGS method and the microscopic photography were given. The RGS method can realize active quantitative detection of the grinding wheel loading.

    The speed sensorless H∞ control method for PMSM was researched based on the energy function. In order to control the speed of motor rotator effectively, firstly the Hamilton model of the PMSM was shaped when there was not disturbances, and the rotator speed might reach the expected value. When there were disturbances, a H controller was designed based on the Hamilton function. An observer was designed using the method of expansion plus feedback based on the Hamilton function and used to measure the angular speed of rotator, and the speed sensorless shape plus H∞ control were achieved. The simulation results show that the shape plus H control based on the observer can estimate the angular speed accurately, and restrain the disturbances of system, and control the rotator speed effectively.

    The  particles of resonant fatigue crack propagation test vibration  system were composed of multiple different shapes and material components,which largely limited  the direct measurement of particles mass.A soft-measuring method was  proposed herein to measure the particle mass of this kind of vibration system. Firstly, three degrees of freedom vibration system mechanics model and the dynamics equation were established and the system natural frequency equation concerning system natural frequency, spring stiffness and particle mass was derived. The specimen stiffness under different crack  lengths was  calculated by finite element  method and the system natural frequency under different crack lengths  was  measured through frequency measuring experimental method.With substituting resonance frequency value under different crack lengths and the corresponding specimen stiffness into system frequency equation, the over determined equations were derived by taking the particle  mass  needed to  identify  as the unknown variables, the least-squares solution was obtained by solving the over determined equations,and this vibrating system particle mass  were obtained by further subsequent processing. The related experiments  were  performed to verify the accuracy of the proposed method.The experimental results  show  that the maximum error of main vibration mass is  as  6.76% and the proposed method has theoretical significance and application values.

    The similarity between the real object and the reconstructed model and the precision of the 3D point cloud were determined by the accuracy of the internal and external parameters of the camera. A convex relaxation algorithm was proposed to deal with the problems of camera calibration. Each monomial in the polynomial optimization problem was replaced by its corresponding linear item and some semi-definite matrix inequalities were added. The global optima could be approximated or achieved by solving one or more semi-definite programming problems. The experimental results confirm the feasibility and the accuracy of this algorithm. Moreover, the algorithm can be applied to the problems of camera calibration and some other polynomial optimization problems in multiple view geometry.

    According to the constant speed camshaft grinding mathematical model in X-C axis, the equations of horizontal feed displacement and velocity of wheelhead, cam workpiece spindle theory speed were established. Based on the machine capacity constraints of CNC camshaft grinder, the allowed values of workpiece spindle speed were calculated with integration reverse method, where the values of horizontal feed velocity, acceleration or jerk of wheelhead exceeded the limit in the corresponding corner section. Then the calculated values of workpiece spindle speed were replaced with the theoretical speed value of constant speed camshaft grinding on the corresponding corner section. With the workpiece spindle speed curves before and after optimization, the camshaft grinding experiments were carried out. The experimental results indicate that: using the optimized workpiece spindle speed, the maximum cam lifting errors and maximum adjacent errors of the camshaft decrease compared to that processed by the theoretical constant speed; and the surface roughness also decreases. It shows that optimization method can improve the processing quality of the precision and efficient camshaft grinding.

    Aiming at the problems of fault diagnosis for rotating machinery, a fault diagnosis method for rotating machinery was proposed based on AMD herein. As long as the frequency components of signals were known, signals with different frequency components might be decomposed into single frequency signals using the AMD method, especially to decompose a signal with closely spaced frequency components. For the fault feature frequency prediction in rotating machinery fault diagnosis, AMD method might be used to extract fault feature frequency signals in mechanical vibration signals and the frequency spectrum was obtained. If the frequency spectrum contains the fault feature frequency, it shows that the faults exist in mechanical vibration signals. The analysis of the rolling bearing fault signals and the comparison with empirical model decomposition(EMD), it shows that the AMD method is effective and more rapid, accurate than EMD.
