高维小失效概率下的改进线抽样方法

 针对隐式极限状态方程的可靠性分析,提出了一种基于失效域样本模拟的高效线抽样法。该法采用马尔可夫链来快速得到失效域中的条件样本,利用这些失效域中的样本可以得到线抽样的重要方向,并且这些样本还可以作为线抽样的样本,来得到隐式极限状态方程失效概率的估计值。由于该法可以较准确地得到线抽样方法的重要方向,因此线抽样的效率可以得到提高,另外失效域的样本又可以作为线抽样的样本,从而进一步降低所提方法的计算工作量。算例表明所提算法的计算精度和效率均高于传统线抽样方法。     

Spacecraft survivability in the natural debris environment near the stable Earth-Moon Lagrange points

The theoretical analysis of the motion of natural space debris near the stable Earth-Moon Lagrange Points, $L_4$ and $L_5$, is presented with a focus on the potential debris risks to spacecraft operating near these points. Specifically, the research formulates a debris propagation model using four-body dynamics, then applies candidate probabilistic survivability models to a notional spacecraft operating at the $L_4$ and $L_5$ Lagrange points to quantify the collision risks to the spacecraft from natural debris particles. Of the survivability models implemented, the natural debris collision risks to spacecraft survivability are found to be incredibly low, but mitigation strategies to reduce the risk further are identified in this study. Overall, research into stable Lagrange point natural debris propagation improves understanding of the collision risks posed by the naturally occurring Kordylewski clouds and enhances operational planning for Lagrange point space missions.     

Solar sail trajectories with piecewise-constant steering laws

Solar sails have much attracted the interest of the scientific community as an advanced low-thrust propulsion means capable of promoting the reduction of mission costs and the feasibility of missions that are not practically accessible via conventional propulsion because of their large ΔV requirements. To reduce the overall flight time, a given mission is usually analyzed in the framework of a minimum time control problem, with the employment of a continuous steering law. The aim of this paper is to investigate the performance achievable with a piecewise-constant steering law whose aim is to substantially reduce the complex task of reorienting the sail over the whole mission. Unlike previous studies based on direct approaches, here we use an indirect method to optimally select the sail angle within a set of prescribed values. The corresponding steering law translates the results available for continuous controls to the discrete case, and is able of producing trajectories that are competitive in performance with the optimum variable direction program.     

Ground Compatibility Tests for Gravity Measurement of SELENE: Accuracies of Two- and Four-Way Doppler and Range Measurements

The Japanese lunar mission Selenological and Engineering Explorer (SELENE) was launched in September 2007 and continued its mission until June 2009, when the main orbiter impacted with the surface of the Moon. SELENE consisted of three satellites: Main, Rstar, and Vstar. Rstar’s tasks were to forward up-link signals from the Usuada Deep Space Center (UDSC) to Main, and to down-link returning signals from Main to UDSC. We refer to this tracking sub-system as a four-way Doppler measurement. In contrast, conventional tracking systems between Rstar and UDSC as well as between Main and ground stations are referred to as two-way Doppler and range measurements. Using Main and Rstar, we successfully observed the gravity field over the farside of the Moon. Because four-way Doppler measurements via a relay sub-satellite were a fundamental experiment in space for Japanese space agencies, compatibility of radiometric instruments onboard Main and Rstar to UDSC were carefully examined at the UDSC using components manufactured for flight models. These tests not only proved the feasibility of the four-way Doppler measurements but also provided biases and variations of the four-way Doppler and two-way Doppler and range measurements that were later taken into account during the processing of tracking data and the analysis of the lunar global gravity field.     

A Twin-CME Scenario for Ground Level Enhancement Events

Ground Level Enhancement (GLEs) events are extreme Solar Energetic Particle (SEP) events. Protons in these events often reach ～GeV/nucleon. Understanding the underlying particle acceleration mechanism in these events is a major goal for Space Weather studies. In Solar Cycle 23, a total of 16 GLEs have been identified. Most of them have preceding CMEs and in-situ energetic particle observations show some of them are enhanced in ICME or flare-like material. Motivated by this observation, we discuss here a scenario in which two CMEs erupt in sequence during a short period of time from the same Active Region (AR) with a pseudo-streamer-like pre-eruption magnetic field configuration. The first CME is narrower and slower and the second CME is wider and faster. We show that the magnetic field configuration in our proposed scenario can lead to magnetic reconnection between the open and closed field lines that drape and enclose the first CME and its driven shock. The combined effect of the presence of the first shock and the existence of the open close reconnection is that when the second CME erupts and drives a second shock, one finds both an excess of seed population and an enhanced turbulence level at the front of the second shock than the case of a single CME-driven shock. Therefore, a more efficient particle acceleration will occur. The implications of our proposed scenario are discussed.     

新电位移边界条件下的压电介质断裂问题

应用边界元法,并结合一种特殊的复变函数基本解,研究了压电介质的断裂问题。由于该基本解完全遵循本构方程没有对电位移边界作假设,所以结论同非穿透性裂纹假设的结果有较大差异。通过计算表明,外加力载荷不但会引起裂纹尖端应力奇异性,也会引起电场奇异性,同样,外加电压也会引起裂纹尖端应力奇异性。     

一种基于多维空间超球体的快速聚类算法

提出了一种基于多维空间超球体的快速聚类算法。这种算法结合密度聚类和层次聚类两种思想。首先利用密度聚类方法将小范围内的数据对象聚合成超球体,然后再按照层次聚类中的凝聚思想,根据超球体之间的位置关系产生最终聚类。实验表明,该算法对于数值型数据集不仅在效率、噪声敏感性等方面均有较好的表现,同时还可以通过诸如“双环测试”等带有刁难性的特殊测试集。以往,常常简单的以距离来刻画的数据间“相似性”,而所提出的快速聚类算法则改由超球体之间连接的紧密程度来描述这种性质。实验表明,这种修改使得算法的性能得到了很好的改善。
