Studying the positioning accuracy for dynamic (moving) objects with the use of multifrequency oblique-incidence sounding of ionospheric radio channels by chirp signals

The paper presents the methods and algorithms for positioning the dynamic (moving) objects using the oblique-incidence ionospheric sounding by chirp signals. Full-scale experiments have been performed to determine a distance to an object and its location.     

Statistical analysis of stretch shaping process of biconvex skin

The results of shaping process were obtained by the process scheme of serial stretching for biconvex skin of workpieces using the ANSYS/LS-DYNA software. The analysis is based on different flow material characteristics during plastic deformation at solid friction. A statistical analysis of the calculation results for disturbing factors assessment is carried out.     

Methods for investigating the unmanned aerial vehicle electric actuator performance in aeroelasticity tasks

Theoretical and experimental methods of investigating the performance of an electric actuator of maneuverable unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is considered in order to solve the aeroelasticity tasks. Models of the stability analysis for the rudder–actuator system as well as the examples of numerical and experimental studies of this system performance are given.     

Solution of the flyby problem for large space debris at sun-synchronous orbits

the paper considers the flyby problem related to large space debris (LSD) objects at low earth orbits. The data on the overall dimensions of known last and upper stages of launch vehicles makes it possible to single out five compact groups of such objects from the NORAD catalog in the 500–2000 km altitude interval. The orbits of objects of each group have approximately the same inclinations. The features of the mutual distribution of the orbital planes of LSD objects in the group are shown in a portrait of the evolution of deviations of the right ascension of ascending nodes (RAAN). In the case of the first three groups (inclinations of 71°, 74°, and 81°), the straight lines of relative RAAN deviations of object orbits barely intersect each other. The fourth (83°) and fifth (97°–100°) LSD groups include a considerable number of objects whose orbits are described by straight lines (diagonals), which intersect other lines many times. The use of diagonals makes it possible to significantly reduce the temporal and total characteristic velocity expenditures required for object flybys, but it complicates determination of the flyby sequence. Diagonal solutions can be obtained using elements of graph theory. A solution to the flyby problem is presented for the case of group 5, formed of LSD objects at sun-synchronous orbits.     

Study of the Microphonics for Prospective Space-Based Neutron and Gamma-Ray Detectors and Methods for its Suppression

The results of testing a number of space-based detectors that contain PMTs or high-voltage electrodes for the noise from the microphonics that occurs in the signal path due to external mechanical action have been presented. A method for the vibration isolation of instruments aboard a spacecraft has been proposed to reduce their responsivity to vibrations.     

The IMISS-1 Experiment for Recording and Analysis of Accelerations in Orbital Flight

The IMISS-1 experiment represents the second step in solving the problem of the creation of the gaze stabilization corrector. This device is designed to correct the effect of the gaze stabilization delay under microgravity. IMISS-1 continues research started by the Tat’yana-2 satellite. This research will be continued on board the International Space Station. At this stage we study the possibility of registration of angular and linear accelerations acting on the sensitive mass in terms of Low Earth Orbit flight, using MEMS sensors.     

Study of Dynamic Loads of Aircraft Bevel Gear Systems

This paper studies the dynamic loads of bevel gears with circular and straight teeth with the overlap factors less than two (ε_α < 2) and more than two (ε_α > 2). The advantages of the gears with straight teeth with ε_α > 2 are shown.     

飞轮振源特征参数提取方法及其分布特性

为了从飞轮微振动输出中提取飞轮转子的振源信息，提出利用鲁棒回归辨识飞轮在升速过程中各主要阶次的振幅对转速的二次幂系数，并将其作为飞轮的振源幅值特征参数；为探究参数的分布特性，利用Weibull分布拟合多个飞轮在同一阶次的特征参数，并计算出特定概率点的分位数。振源特征参数的分位数既系统地展示了飞轮振源分布情况，亦可作为振源分级判据。将该方法成功应用于50 Nms飞轮的振源特征参数分布研究中，为该型飞轮的超静性能筛选和设计改进提供了判定准则和参考依据。
