Power Equipment Image Recognition Method Based on Feature Extraction and Deep Learning by Shuang Lin

“…The proposed method introduces a target feature prediction strategy tailored to power equipment: it incorporates a learning mechanism for depth variation to extract deep semantic information from images; enhances the global structure learning network module by stacking convolutional kernels and removing pooling layers in the front-end network, thereby acquiring prior information rich in detailed and correlated image features of power equipment. …”

Modal analysis of a 20-degree-of-freedom model of a transport aircraft wing by Oleksii Starodub

“…Unlike existing models, the proposed model incorporates not only the bending and torsional angles of the wing and aileron but also the spanwise variation of all structural parameters. Scientific novelty of the obtained results: for the first time, a novel method has been developed for constructing a reduced-order model of an aircraft wing with a significantly lower number of degrees of freedom, while maintaining a high level of agreement with the dynamic characteristics of the full-scale wing structure.…”
