Keynote Speaker I
Prof. Ian Robert McAndrew
Capitol Technology University, Maryland, USA
Speech Title: Is Cybersecurity a need in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering?
Abstract: Mechanical and Aerospace engineering projects design their products to be safe from Cyber-attacks when in use. This paper argues that the design, manufacturing and service is as equally important. Examples of errors and problems from Cyber-attacks are addressed and the future implications presented. In particular, the role of data communications between automation and mechatronics of manufacture are critical in preventing attacks from any potential foreign power or competitor. It concludes that Cyber-security is frequently ignored and how industry must address individual needs.

Keynote Speaker II
Prof. Juntao Fei
College of IoT Engineering, Hohai University, China
Director of Institute of Electrical and Control Engineering
Speech Title: Novel Adaptive Neural Network Sliding Mode Control for Active Power Filter
Abstract: This keynote speech presents an adaptive sliding mode controller based on a novel double hidden layer recurrent neural network algorithm to improve the performance of harmonic current compensation and system robustness of an active power filter. The double hidden layer neural network can improve the accuracy and generalization ability of the neural network, reduce the number of network weights and accelerate the network training speed owing to the strong fitting and presentation ability of two-layer activation functions. The feedback neural network plays the significant role in possessing associative memory and rapid system convergence. Simulation and experimental results demonstrated that the satisfactory performance of proposed controller under both dynamic and steady state operations, including robustness, fast response, and small overshoot for harmonic suppression
