High-end Equipment System Integration and Simulation Strategic Innovation Group

Team Introduction:

Taking national development strategy as the guidance, "high-end equipment system integration and simulation" strategic innovation team put its focus on the core scientific problems acquiring most social value and application prospect, and influence of the national development and future. Based on common interests, goals and research achievements, relying on the research features and advantages of two key disciplines, that are peak discipline "system science" and defense characteristic discipline "system and simulation", focusing on intelligent manufacturing and defense, applying the principles and methods of system theory, information theory and control theory to conduct modeling, analysis, diagnosis, synthesis, integration and simulation of the structure, performance and function of high-end equipment complex system, and from the perspective of system science and system engineering to provide strong theoretical support for the design and manufacture of high-end equipment system.

Through talent cultivation and scientific and technological services, the innovative development of intelligent manufacturing, robotics and sophisticated weaponry in China have been promoted, and then the national strategy of "Made in China 2025" and the construction plan of Shanghai science and technology innovation center will be served.

Research Direction:

·Performance analysis, synthesis and simulation of high-end equipment system with incomplete information: Information incompleteness refers to data loss, saturation, quantification, sampling, time delay and other phenomena that often occur in the equipment system. In most literature, it is always indirectly assumed that the system measurement signal includes the continuous real signal under noise interference. It is well known that the accuracy of measurement data plays a decisive role in the performance of the system. The stability, robustness and non-vulnerability of high-end equipment systems are studied under the condition of incomplete information. On this basis, the system state acquisition, system synthesis and simulation provide important theoretical support for the design and manufacturing of high-end equipment systems.

·Integrated cooperative control, fault diagnosis and safety monitoring of high-end equipment system: Focusing on the structure and optimization design of the high-end equipment system concerning needs of industrial production process and modern military, and network attack, data loss and other problems of multi-aiming complex systems, the collaborative planning, synchronization, consistency, and integrated control, as well as fault diagnosis and safety monitoring during operation have been under research, which ensures the safety, sound operation of the high-end equipment system.

·Optimization and integration of big data, artificial intelligence and high-end equipment system: The design, manufacturing and operation of high-end equipment will generate massive data, which contains a large amount of available information. Through big data technologies such as data mining, important information of equipment system can be obtained, and some more problems can be revealed, providing important basis for the system performance improvement and safe operation. The team will apply big data technology and artificial intelligence algorithm to carry out research on the structure and performance of high-end equipment system, providing theoretical basis for further optimization, analysis and integration of the system.

Basic Condition:

A new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial reform is poised for development. Major developed countries in the world have taken high-end equipment as their focus, expanded their strategic layout, seized the commanding heights of global technological and industrial competition and rebuilt their national competitive advantages. America's National Strategic Plan for Advanced Manufacturing, Germany's Industry 4.0, Britain's High-value Manufacturing, France's New Industrial France, and Japan's Robot Strategy are all committed to promoting the integration of advanced manufacturing technology and information technology, focusing on the development of high-end equipment.

University of Shanghai for Science and Technology is originated from University of Hujiang, which was founded in 1906. It used to be the Shanghai Mechanical Engineering Institute under the Ministry of Machine-Building Industry, which enjoys the reputation of "the Huangpu Military Academy for Manufacturing" in China. It is a key university under the jurisdiction of Shanghai municipality, and a university jointly built by State Administration of Science Technology and Industry for National Defense and Shanghai Municipal People's Government. System Science and System Engineering Discipline conduct research on complex system, including natural system and human society system, and complex artificial system. High-end equipment is an advanced complex artificial system with many parts, which require many advanced technologies and powerful functions. High-end equipment generally has high research and development cost, long production cycle, complex system structure and involves mass high-tech.

With a long-term cooperation, the team has carried out many research work on integration and simulation of complex system in high-end equipment, forming several distinctive and internationally influential research directions. The team members have published nearly 500 papers (including accepted papers) on SCI journals in the field of systems and control, including more than 100 papers on top journals in the field. A total of more than 70 papers were listed as ESI high-citation papers (nearly 10 of which were listed in the top 0.1% of ESI hot papers). The team published 7 monographs, and conducted over 30 national and provincial scientific research projects, and won one Second Class National Prize of Natural Science, and many provincial and ministerial scientific and technological awards.
