Show moreSuper-tall buildings located in high velocity wind regions are highly vulnerable to large lateral loads. Designing for these structures must be done with great engineering judgment by structural professionals. Present methods of evaluating these loads are typically by the use of American Society of Civil Engineers 7-10 standard, field measurements or scaled wind tunnel models. With the rise of high performance computing nodes, an emerging method based on the numerical approach of Computational Fluid Dynamics has created an additional layer of analysis and loading prediction alternative to conventional methods. The present document uses turbulence modeling and numerical algorithms by means of Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes and Large Eddy Simulation equations applied to a square prismatic prototype structure in which its dynamic properties have also been investigated. With proper modeling of the atmospheric boundary layer flow, these numerical techniques reveal important aerodynamic properties and enhance flow visualization to structural engineers in a virtual environment.

- Wind Feedforward Control of a USV.
- Creator
- Qu, Huajin, von Ellenrieder, Karl, Florida Atlantic University, College of Engineering and Computer Science, Department of Ocean and Mechanical Engineering
- Abstract/Description
-
In this research, a wind feedforward (FF) controller has been developed to augment closed loop feedback controllers for the position and heading station keeping control of Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USVs). The performance of the controllers was experimentally tested using a 16 foot USV in an outdoor marine environment. The FF controller was combined with three nonlinear feedback controllers, a Proportional–Derivative (PD) controller, a Backstepping (BS) controller, and a Sliding mode (SM)...
Show moreIn this research, a wind feedforward (FF) controller has been developed to augment closed loop feedback controllers for the position and heading station keeping control of Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USVs). The performance of the controllers was experimentally tested using a 16 foot USV in an outdoor marine environment. The FF controller was combined with three nonlinear feedback controllers, a Proportional–Derivative (PD) controller, a Backstepping (BS) controller, and a Sliding mode (SM) controller, to improve the station-keeping performance of the USV. To address the problem of wind model uncertainties, adaptive wind feedforward (AFF) control schemes are also applied to the FF controller, and implemented together with the BS and SM feedback controllers. The adaptive law is derived using Lyapunov Theory to ensure stability. On-water station keeping tests of each combination of FF and feedback controllers were conducted in the U.S. Intracoastal Waterway in Dania Beach, FL USA. Five runs of each test condition were performed; each run lasted at least 10 minutes. The experiments were conducted in Sea State 1 with an average wind speed of between 1 to 4 meters per second and significant wave heights of less than 0.2 meters. When the performance of the controllers is compared using the Integral of the Absolute Error (IAE) of position criterion, the experimental results indicate that the BS and SM feedback controllers significantly outperform the PD feedback controller (e.g. a 33% and a 44% decreases in the IAE, respectively). It is also found that FF is beneficial for all three feedback controllers and that AFF can further improve the station keeping performance. For example, a BS feedback control combined with AFF control reduces the IAE by 25% when compared with a BS feedback controller combined with a non-adaptive FF controller. Among the eight combinations of controllers tested, SM feedback control combined with AFF control gives the best station keeping performance with an average position and heading error of 0.32 meters and 4.76 degrees, respectively.

- Abstract/Description

In this thesis, we analyze wind speeds collected by South Florida Water Management District at stations L001, L005, L006 and LZ40 in Lake Okeechobee from January 1995 to December 2000. There are many missing values and out-liers in this data. To impute the missing values, three different methods are used: Nearby window average imputation, Jones imputation using Kalman filter, and EM algorithm imputation. To detect outliers and remove impacts, we use ARIMA models of time series. Innovational...
Show moreIn this thesis, we analyze wind speeds collected by South Florida Water Management District at stations L001, L005, L006 and LZ40 in Lake Okeechobee from January 1995 to December 2000. There are many missing values and out-liers in this data. To impute the missing values, three different methods are used: Nearby window average imputation, Jones imputation using Kalman filter, and EM algorithm imputation. To detect outliers and remove impacts, we use ARIMA models of time series. Innovational and additive outliers are considered. It turns out that EM algorithm imputation is the best method for our wind speed data set. After imputing missing values, detecting outliers and removing the impacts, we obtain the best models for all four stations. They are all in the form of seasonal ARIMA(2, 0, 0) x (1, 0, 0)24 for the hourly wind speed data.
