Abstract
Acoustic emission (AE) testing and Lamb wave inspection techniques have been widely used in non-destructive testing and structural health monitoring. For thin plates, the AEs arising from structural defect development (e.g., fatigue crack propagation) propagate as Lamb waves, and Lamb wave modes can be used to provide important information about the growth and localisation of defects. However, few sensors can be used to achieve the in situ wavenumber-frequency modal decomposition of AEs. This study explores the ability of a new multi-element piezoelectric sensor array to decompose AEs excited by pencil lead breaks (PLBs) on a thin isotropic plate. In this study, AEs were generated by out-of-plane (transverse) and in-plane (longitudinal) PLBs applied at the edge of the plate, and waveforms were recorded by both the new sensor array and a commercial AE sensor. Finite element analysis (FEA) simulations of PLBs were also conducted and the results were compared with the experimental results. To identify the wave modes present, the longitudinal and transverse PLB test results recorded by the new sensor array at five different plate locations were compared with FEA simulations using the same arrangement. Two-dimensional fast Fourier Transforms were then applied to the AE wavefields. It was found that the AE modal composition was dependent on the orientation of the PLB direction. The results suggest that this new sensor array can be used to identify the AE wave modes excited by PLBs in both in-plane and out-of-plane directions.

Abstract
The direction of arrival (DOA) and number of sound sources is usually estimated by short-time Fourier transform and the conjugate cross-spectrum. However, the ability of a single AVS to distinguish between multiple sources will decrease as the number of sources increases. To solve this problem, this paper presents a multimodal fusion method based on a single acoustic vector sensor (AVS). First, the output of the AVS is decomposed into multiple modes by intrinsic time-scale decomposition (ITD). The number of sources in each mode decreases after decomposition. Then, the DOAs and source number in each mode are estimated by density peak clustering (DPC). Finally, the density-based spatial clustering of applications with the noise (DBSCAN) algorithm is employed to obtain the final source counting results from the DOAs of all modes. Experiments showed that the multimodal fusion method could significantly improve the ability of a single AVS to distinguish multiple sources when compared to methods without multimodal fusion.

Abstract
Modal decomposition of light is essential to study its propagation properties in waveguides and photonic devices. Modal analysis can be carried out by implementing a computer-generated hologram acting as a match filter in a spatial light modulator. In this work, a series of aspects to be taken into account in order to get the most out of this method are presented, aiming to provide useful operational procedures. First of all, a method for filter size adjustment based on the standard fiber LP-mode symmetry is presented. The influence of the mode normalization in the complex amplitude encoding-inherent noise is then investigated. Finally, a robust method to measure the phase difference between modes is proposed. These procedures are tested by wavefront reconstruction in a conventional few-mode fiber.

Abstract
The air-quality index (AQI) is an important comprehensive evaluation index to measure the quality of air, with its value reflecting the degree of air pollution. However, it is difficult to predict the AQI accurately by the commonly used WRF-CMAQ model due to the uncertainty of the simulated meteorological field and emission inventory. In this paper, a novel Auto-Modal network with Attention Mechanism (AMAM) has been proposed to predict the hourly AQI with a structure of dual input path. The first path is based on bidirectional encoder representation from the transformer to predict the AQI with the historical measured meteorological data and pollutants. The other path is a baseline to improve the generalization ability based on predicting the AQI by the WRF-CMAQ model. Several experiments were undertaken to evaluate the performance of the proposed model, with the results showing that the auto-modal network achieves a superior performance for all prediction lengths compared to some state-of-the-art models.

Abstract
Research in modern data-driven dynamical systems is typically focused on the three key challenges of high dimensionality, unknown dynamics and nonlinearity. The dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) has emerged as a cornerstone for modelling high-dimensional systems from data. However, the quality of the linear DMD model is known to be fragile with respect to strong nonlinearity, which contaminates the model estimate. By contrast, sparse identification of nonlinear dynamics learns fully nonlinear models, disambiguating the linear and nonlinear effects, but is restricted to low-dimensional systems. In this work, we present a kernel method that learns interpretable data-driven models for high-dimensional, nonlinear systems. Our method performs kernel regression on a sparse dictionary of samples that appreciably contribute to the dynamics. We show that this kernel method efficiently handles high-dimensional data and is flexible enough to incorporate partial knowledge of system physics. It is possible to recover the linear model contribution with this approach, thus separating the effects of the implicitly defined nonlinear terms. We demonstrate our approach on data from a range of nonlinear ordinary and partial differential equations. This framework can be used for many practical engineering tasks such as model order reduction, diagnostics, prediction, control and discovery of governing laws.

Abstract
This paper presents a new technique for the extraction of high-order wave-damage interaction coefficients (WDIC) through modal decomposition. The frequency and direction dependent complex-valued WDIC are used to model the scattering and mode conversion phenomena of guided wave interaction with damage. These coefficients are extracted from the harmonic analysis of local finite element model (FEM) mesh with non-reflective boundaries (NRB) and they are capable of describing the amplitude and phase of the scattered waves as a function of frequency and direction. To extract the WDIC of each wave mode, all the possible propagating wave modes are considered to be scattered simultaneously from the damage and propagate independently. Formulated in frequency domain, the proposed method is highly efficient, providing an overdetermined equation system for the calculation of mode participation factors, i.e., WDIC of each mode. Case studies in a 6-mm aluminum plate were carried out to validate the WDIC of: (1) a through-thickness hole and (2) a sub-surface crack. At higher frequency, scattered waves of high-order modes will appear and their WDIC can be successfully extracted through the modal decomposition.
