    摘要: A positioning device for arrangement of a basin false bottom in ocean engineering comprises a laser transmitting system, a rotating platform system, and a control and calculation system. The laser transmitting system comprises a laser transmitter used for providing laser beams. The rotating platform system comprises a two-degree-of-freedom rotating platform used for carrying the laser transmitter and making the laser beams have spatially arbitrary directivity. The control and calculation system is used for calculating, according to given coordinates, the angle by which the two-degree-of-freedom rotating platform needs to rotate, controlling rotation of the two-degree-of-freedom rotating platform, and making the laser beams transmitted by the laser transmitter accurately indicate the given coordinates at the basin false bottom. Compared with an existing manual positioning method for a false bottom, the positioning device is high in accuracy, easy to operate, and rapid, and saves labor and greatly improves the test efficiency.

    摘要: The present invention belongs to the technical field of image measurement, and provides a motion measurement method and apparatus applied to a large multi-paddle wave simulation system. When the motion of the wave maker is measured, firstly site images are collected by the cameras; the mark point on each wave making paddle in the image processing boards is identified; and a central position is computed. Then, the central position is contrasted with the initial position to calculate displacement of the image plane and convert the displacement into the displacement on a physical space in combination with calibration parameters. Next, data is transmitted to the computer through the EtherCAT network, and coded identification is conducted on the data. Finally, comparative analysis is conducted on a measured value and a target value of the motion of the wave making paddle in the computer, thereby obtaining motion information of the wave maker. In the present invention, when the motion of the wave maker is measured, the problems of difficult target recognition and unstable motion tracking caused by nonuniform illumination in the experiment site as well as the problems of great time consumption of an image analysis algorithm and low efficiency of data transmission of multiple camera systems are fully considered.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to an apparatus, system and associated method of operation that allows medium weight Class II equipment to be shock tested using a Medium Weight Shock Machine (MWSM) in a manner that adequately simulates the required shock response exhibited when subjected to underwater explosion (UNDEX), Heavyweight testing utilizing a FSP. Advantageously, such an apparatus, system and associated method allows for testing of Class II medium weight (e.g., about 500-4500 lbs.) equipment (e.g., submarine and surface vessel equipment) utilizing an MWSM instead of Heavyweight testing utilizing a Floating Shock Platform (FSP). Testing of Class II medium weight equipment in this manner significantly reduces cost of testing such equipment and increases safety associated with testing such equipment.
