The lever-type electric erection system is a novel kind of erection system and the experimental platform in this paper operates with varying loads and low-resolution encoder. For high accuracy trajectory tracking, linear active disturbance rejection control (LADRC) is introduced. An approximate model, consisting of the servo system configured at velocity control mode and the lever-type erection mechanism, is built by means of system identification and curve fitting. Reduced-order LADRC based on the further simplified model is proposed to improve tracking accuracy and robustness. As comparisons, traditional LADRC and PID with high-gain tracking differentiator (HGTD) are designed. Simulation and experimental results indicate that reduced-order LADRC can realize higher trajectory tracking accuracy with low-resolution encoder and has better robustness to variation in erection loads, compared with traditional LADRC and PID with HGTD.

This paper investigates the planar vibration characteristic of heavy load radial tires with a large flat ratio. A proposed tire model with a flexible ring on an elastic continuous foundation is investigated utilizing kinematic modeling and experimental modal analysis. Planar coupling deformation of the radial and tangential direction is considered to enrich the kinematic characteristic of the flexible belt and the continuous sidewall; a flexible ring on an elastic continuous foundation tire model is proposed to investigate the coupling vibration characteristic between the flexible belt and the continuous sidewall. In-extensibility assumption is utilized to simplify the proposed tire model and the planar vibration modal features of the heavy load radial tire are discussed. The variation of the inflation pressure on the radial and tangential stiffness of the sidewall spring model is enriched into the flexible ring on an elastic continuous foundation tire model to extend the modal prediction of the tires with a different inflation pressure. Taking the relative error between the experimental and analytical modal resonance frequency of the tested tire with a different inflation pressure as the object value, structural parameters of the proposed tire model are identified by a backward genetic algorithm. Experimental and theoretical results show that: the planar coupling vibration characteristic of the heavy load radial tire can be predicted precisely with the flexible ring on an elastic continuous foundation tire model; meanwhile, considering the linear variations of the radial and tangential sidewall stiffness due to the inflation pressure, the proposed tire model can be extended to analyze the vibration characteristic of the heavy load radial tire with a different inflation pressure.

Linear active disturbance rejection control (LADRC) algorithm is proposed to realize accurate trajectory tracking for the lever-type electric erection system. By means of system identification and curve fitting, the approximate model is built, which is consisting of the servo drive system with velocity closed-loop and the lever-type erection mechanism. The proportional control law with velocity feedforward is designed to improve the trajectory tracking performance. The experimental results verify that, based on approximate model, LADRC has better tracking accuracy and stronger robustness to the disturbance caused by the change of intrinsic parameters compared with PI controller.

Consumption voucher policy can stimulate aggregate demand. Some countries' governments have responded to the recent world-wide recession with equal distribution consumption voucher policy. In this paper, consumption vouchers were distributed to two groups of people in two ways. Multiplier effects in two distribution ways were calculated, which shows that the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) of two groups and the proportion of each group's disposable income are the main factors to influence the multiplier effect. By comparing the multiplier effects in two distribution ways, an equation was obtained as an optimization criterion of consumption voucher distribution. Government can choose the optimized way of consumption voucher distribution through this criterion on the basis of national conditions.
