Space Radiation Damage Measurements in the Earth Synchronous Orbit

For direct measurement of the integrated radiation dose experienced in Earth synchronous orbit, p-i-n diodes were flown as radiation dosimeters on LES-6. The diode, which has a lifetime of 10-4 seconds in the intrinsic region, was originally developed as a neutron dosimeter, but can detect 1-MeV electron fluences as low as 1013 e·cm-2. Observations over three years in orbit are presented.     

Angle-of-Arrival Estimation Using an Adaptive Antenna Array

A direction-finding technique is presented that is capable of simultaneously estimating the arrival angles of multiple signals. Pulsed as well as continuous signals can be handled with the signal form only approximately specified. An adaptive antenna array is used as a processing device in the estimation technique. The effect of input signal and feedback loop parameters upon estimate bias is discussed.     

不同台阶高度对中心分级燃烧室点火熄火性能的影响

设计了一种贫油燃烧中心分级燃烧室,采用单头部矩形试验件,试验研究了3种不同台阶高度对点火熄火性能的影响.试验中只有预燃级喷嘴供油工作,在常温常压、常温低压条件下进行了贫油点火试验,在常温常压、加温常压下进行了贫油熄火试验.结果表明:台阶高度越大,贫油点火边界越宽,同时贫油熄火边界越宽;进口温度的升高有助于改善贫油熄火性能,并缩小3种方案贫油熄火油气比的差距,在320~570K的进口温度范围内,贫油熄火油气比的最大差距由40%减小到13%;3种方案都具有较好的常温负压点火性能,且在0.5%~1.5%的火焰筒进出口总压降下,贫油点火油气比差异不大,最大相差不超过10%.     

一级旋流强度对双旋流杯下游油气分布的影响

为了改善双旋流杯点火性能,需要优化其下游的流场和油雾场。利用激光粒子动态分析技术(PDA)测量基准双旋流杯下游的流场和油雾场,据此提出一级旋流器旋流数仅增大6.7%,但切向动量矩减小44%的改进方案,并进行了流场和油雾场对比试验。试验结果表明:减小双旋流杯一级旋流切向动量矩会使旋流杯下游流场结构发生较大变化,使其从收扩型转变为扩张型,同时减小油雾的索太尔平均直径(SMD);当与旋流杯出口距离超过2.5倍文氏管喉道直径时,流场输运和油滴蒸发作用增强,使得油雾分布更加均匀,燃油SMD更小。在航空发动机燃烧室双旋流杯设计中,不仅要考虑传统的旋流数概念,还应考虑各级切向动量矩的综合影响作用。

表面热流的可辨识性分析可用于飞行器防热层内温度测量精度和测温点位置的确定,在工程上有较强的实用意义。从无量纲分析和仿真辨识出发,根据防热层材料热物性系数、测点位置、表面热流的频域特性等参数对表面热流辨识结果的影响规律,总结出了表面热流辨识问题的相似参数：基于表面热流频率参数的傅立叶数。此后,以这一傅立叶数为判据,针对不同测量误差值的情况初步建立起了表面热流可辨识性的准则和分析方法。     

Analysis of geometrically nonlinear shells of revolution based on the finite element method with the vector interpolation of desired quantities

In this paper, we present an algorithm for geometrically nonlinear finite element analysis of the shells of revolution. Use is made of the most proper algorithms for vector interpolation of displacements through the nodal unknowns and an efficient algorithm for obtaining the stress-strain increment relation at a step of loading. By comparing the results of analyzing a geometrically nonlinear shell of revolution obtained on the basis of the ANSYS software with the scalar interpolation of displacements with those obtained on the basis of an author-developed finite element, it has been shown that application of the FEM vector displacement interpolation leads to increasing the accuracy of the finite element solutions in analyzing the stress-strain state of the geometrically nonlinear shells.     

Characteristics of Icy Surfaces

The surfaces of the Solar System’s icy satellites show an extraordinary variety of morphological features, which bear witness to exchange processes between the surface and subsurface. In this paper we review the characteristics of surface features on the moons of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Using data from spacecraft missions, we discuss the detailed morphology, size, and topography of cryovolcanic, tectonic, aeolian, fluvial, and impact features of both large moons and smaller satellites.

Synergism of binocular and motion stereo for passive ranging

Range measurements to objects in the world relative to mobile platforms such as ground or air vehicles are critical for visually aided navigation and obstacle detection/avoidance. An approach is presented that consists of a synergistic combination of two types of passive ranging method: binocular stereo and motion stereo. We show a new way to model the errors in binocular and motion stereo in conjunction with an inertial navigation system (INS) and derive the appropriate Kalman filter to refine the estimates from these two stereo ranging techniques. We present results using laboratory images that show that refined estimates can be optimally combined to give range values which are more accurate than any one of the individual estimates from binocular and motion stereo. By incorporating a blending filter, the approach has the potential of providing accurate, dense range measurements for all the pixels in the field of view (FOV)     

IMF connection for energetic protons observed at Ulysses via mid-latitude solar wind rarefaction regions

As Ulysses moved inward and southward from mid-1992 to early 1994 we noticed the occasional occurrence of inter-events, lasting about 10 days and falling between the recurrent events, observed at proton energies of 0.48–97 MeV, associated with Corotating Interaction Regions (CIR). These inter-events were present for several sequences of two or more solar rotations at intensity levels around 1% of those of the neighbouring main events. When we compared the Ulysses events with those measured on IMP-8 at 1 AU we saw that the inter-events appeared at Ulysses after the extended emission (>10 days) of large fluxes of solar protons of the same energy that lasted at least one solar rotation at 1 AU. The inter-events fell completely within the rarefaction regions (dv/dt<0) of the recurrent solar wind streams. The interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) lines in the rarefactions map back to the narrow range of longitudes at the Sun which mark the eastern edge of the source region of the high speed stream. Thus the inter-events are propagating at mid-latitudes to Ulysses along field lines free from stream-stream interactions. They are seen in the 0.39–1.28 MeV/nucleon He, which exhibit a faster decay, but almost never in the 38–53 keV electrons. We show that the inter-events are unlikely to be accelerated by reverse shocks associated with the CIRs and that they are more likely to be accelerated by sequences of solar events and transported along the IMF in the rarefactions of the solar wind streams.
