Maxwell方程的高阶间断有限元数值解法

采用高精度方法求解时域Maxwell方程,方程的空间离散采用基于计算流体力学(Computational fluid dynamics,CFD)领域的高阶间断有限元格式,非定常时间迭代采用四步龙格-库塔格式。为了提高计算效率,本文采用了Quadrature-free implementation和网格分区并行技术。数值结果表明,采用高阶格式的情况下,采用稀疏网格便可以得到高精度数值解。另外由于本文的方法基于非结构网格,因此非常适合计算复杂外形的情况。     

US and Soviet planetary exploration The next step is Mars, together

Soviet General Secretary Gorbachev has proposed a joint US-Soviet programme to explore the planet Mars. The authors argue that there is considerable advantage to be gained from such a programme for both countries and for all nations on Earth. They trace the history of the US and Soviet space programmes and of cooperation between the two nations, focusing particularly on activities relating to Mars. Robotic Mars exploration is already technically possible and could take place in the 1990s, and a first step towards manned exploration could be the writing of a development and flight plan aiming for the first decade of the 21st century.     

Autoignition of fuel-oxidizer mixtures in microgravity

The paper examines the limitations of quasi-steady autoignition theory in providing information needed for the characterization of autoignition temperature fields. Time-dependent autoignition theory is then utilized to examine the autoignition behavior of a reactive system where both wall catalysis and gas phase kinetic rates are significant. It is found that a diverse range of space-time temperature-composition-pressure histories is possible, depending on the system's thermo-kinetic characteristics.

提高电铸局部电沉积速率试验研究

电铸成型是采用离子沉积的方法制造复制件，具有很好的复制精度，因此电铸技术得到了广泛的应用。但由于受极限电流密度等多方面因素的影响，电铸速率一直是制约电铸技术发展的一个瓶颈，许多学者为此做了大量的理论和试验研究，但对如何提高极限电流密度还没有提供一个比较满意的答案，为提高电铸局部电沉积速率，本文在前人工作的基础上，讨论了影响电铸速率的因素，提出了一种新型的电铸方法－喷射式电铸，并通过两组试验分析了局部电沉积速率怀电铸液流量的关系以及局部铸速率与喷嘴口径的关系，试验结果表明，采用喷射式电铸可以大大提高局部极限电流密度，从而使电铸局部电沉积速率有一个较大范围的提高，为将电铸与快速成型结合奠定了试验基础。

Galileo Photopolarimeter/Radiometer experiment

The Photopolarimeter/Radiometer (PPR) is a remote sensing instrument on the Galileo Orbiter designed to measure the degree of linear polarization and the intensity of reflected sunlight in ten spectral channels between 410 and 945 nm to determine the physical properties of Jovian clouds and aerosols, and to characterize the texture and microstructure of satellite surfaces. The PPR also measures thermal radiation in five spectral bands between 15 and 100 m to sense the upper tropospheric temperature structure. Two additional channels which measure spectrally integrated solar and solar plus thermal radiation are used to determine the planetary radiation budget components. The PPR photopolarimetric measurements utilize previously flown technology for high-precision polarimetry using a calcite Wollaston prism and two silicon photodiodes to enable simultaneous detection of the two orthogonal polarization components. The PPR radiometry measurements are made with a lithium tantalate pyroelectric detector utilizing a unique arrangement of radiometric stops and a scene/space chopper blade to enable a warm instrument to sense accurately the much colder scene temperatures.
