Introduction of Special Session #07

For high-end complex equipment, such as aviation and aerospace equipment, high-speed train, and deep-sea manned submersible, it may cause irreparable consequences once the accident occurs. Real-time safety assessment refers to determining the system safety status through integrating monitoring data from sensors online, thus assisting in making correct self-rescue decisions. Real-time safety assessment is a necessary tool to evaluate the safety statues of a system to avoid accidents. How to accurately perform real-time safety assessment is a critical challenge for developing intelligent high-end complex equipment and has received significant attention from academia and industry worldwide. Nevertheless, research in this area is relatively scarce. Most existing safety assessment methods are offline-based or rely on expert experience and the precise model. However, the facing practical challenges include, but are not limited to, the unavailable of the precise dynamical model, multi-mode and nonstationary operational characteristics, incomplete training data information, and the open operating environment. This special session aims to explore real-time safety assessment technology for dynamic systems, and it will report on the latest research results in related fields to help promote the development of real-time safety assessment technology, improve the intelligence level of high-end complex equipment, and ensure their safe and reliable operation.

Non-destructive testing technology is widely used in quality inspection of key components during production and service. With the rapid development of nondestructive testing methods, high-performance sensors and signal processing algorithms, nondestructive testing technology can achieve high-precision evaluation from micro-structure changes to macro-defects. However, in order to meet the extreme working conditions and special performance requirements, new materials, new structures and new working conditions continue to appear, which brings new challenges to NDT technology. With the continuous discovery of new electrical, magnetic, acoustic, optical and thermal physical phenomena, a series of new nondestructive testing theories and methods have been proposed, which is of great significance in breaking through the limitations of traditional methods. On the other hand, the application of new sensing technology, signal processing algorithm and artificial intelligence technology in nondestructive testing can take full advantage of the potential of defect data and realize the identification, classification and quantification of defects.

Introduction of Special Session #13

Underwater robots are increasingly vital in various fields such as deep-sea detection, marine environmental monitoring, and ocean resource exploration. However, due to the complexity of the marine environment and the rigorous demands on underwater robots, they are prone to malfunctions during operations in the ocean. This not only poses risks and inconvenience to marine operations but also affects the reliability and work efficiency of the robots. Therefore, achieving status monitoring and fault prediction for underwater robots is crucial. Through multi-parameter monitoring and status evaluation of underwater robots, it is possible to promptly detect abnormal behavior, predict robot malfunctions, and carry out maintenance and repairs in advance, which can reduce failure rates and maintenance costs and improve the reliability and work efficiency of the robots. Thus, this special conference aims to explore techniques of underwater robot status monitoring and fault prediction for improving the reliability performance of underwater robots.
