Unmanned aerial vehicle swarm mission reliability modeling and evaluation method oriented to systematic and networked mission

With the development of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) system autonomy, network communication technology and group intelligence theory, mission execution in the form of a UAV swarm will be an important realization of future applications. Traditional single-UAV mission reliability modeling methods have been unable to meet the requirements of UAV swarm mission reliability modeling. Therefore, the UAV swarm mission reliability modeling and evaluation method is proposed. First, aimed at the interdependence among the multiple layers, a multi-layer network model of a UAV swarm is established. At the same time, based on the system having the following characteristics—using a mission chain to complete the mission and applying the connectivity of the mission network—the mission network model of a UAV swarm is established. Second, vulnerability and connectivity are selected as two indicators to reflect the reliability of the mission, and aimed at random attack and deliberate attack, vulnerability and connectivity evaluation methods are proposed. Finally, the validity and accuracy of the constructed model are verified through simulations, and the model and selected indicators can meet the reliability requirements of the UAV swarm mission. In this way, this study provides quantitative reference for UAV-swarm-related decision-making work and supports the development of UAV-swarm-related work.     

Spectra of the two official GLEs of solar cycle 24

Based on ground-level data and on satellite data we determine in this work the observational spectrum of both, the Ground Level Enhancement of May 17, (2012) the so-called GLE71 and the Ground Level Enhancement of September 10, 2017 (GLE 72). We describe a simplified method to obtain the experimental spectrum at ground level. Data of the GLE71 and GLE72 indicate the presence of two different populations, each one with a different energy spectrum. On the other hand, we explore the kind of phenomena that take place at the source in these two particular events. In contrast with other methods based on the temporal synchronization between electromagnetic emissions of flares and coronal mass ejections (CME), here we develop an alternative option based on the study of the accelerated particles, by adjusting our theoretical spectra to the observational spectra. The main results of this work are the derivation of the source and acceleration parameters involved in the generation process. These results lead us to construct possible scenarios of particle generation in the source for each one of the two studied GLEs.     

航天器太阳圆面速度差/太阳视方向组合导航

针对航天器，尤其是深空探测器的自主导航问题，提出了一种新的太阳圆面速度差天文量测信息，该信息利用太阳的较差自转所造成的太阳圆面各点速度不同的特性，是探测器当前位置的函数，其几何本质是一个探测器的位置圆锥。在此基础上，基于太阳圆面速度差和太阳视方向互补的特性，提出了一种太阳圆面速度差/太阳视方向组合导航新方法，将太阳圆面速度差与太阳视方向2种量测量结合起来，实现了量测量之间的优势互补，进一步提高了导航性能。以太阳探测器为例进行了仿真，仿真结果表明相比较于单独用太阳圆面速度差或太阳视方向的导航方法，基于太阳圆面速度差/太阳视方向的组合导航方法精度分别提升了10.2%和16.0%。此外，还分析了光谱仪精度、采样周期和光谱仪数量对导航性能的影响，为深空探测自主导航提供了新的理论与方法。

为研究柔性和多级铰链间隙对帆板展开过程动力学特性的影响，以月球车两级往复可展太阳帆板为研究对象，采用修正Coulomb模型表述摩擦力，通过接触碰撞力描述间隙，运用有限元法进行帆板柔性化，进而建立多间隙-柔性耦合的动力学模型。采用变步长伦哥库塔法进行数值求解，模拟帆板展开过程，分析了多间隙和柔性对帆板质心加速度、铰链间隙碰撞力等参数的影响。结果表明，在保证展开机构刚度要求的前提下，帆板柔性可补偿因铰间隙引起的加速度波动，减弱间隙处碰撞的剧烈程度，减小碰撞力幅值，进而改善帆板展开机构的动态特性。研究结果可用于指导月球车两级往复可展太阳帆板等同类型的可展机构动态优化设计。     

Fast level-flight to hover mode transition and altitude control in tiltrotor’s landing operation

An attempt is made to implement a faster level-flight to hover mode transition in tiltrotor’s landing process for the purpose of shortening its landing time. A three-stage tiltrotor landing maneuver is designed, and corresponding control modules and algorithms are created based on the analysis of the flight dynamics and the required actions of tiltrotor’s landing operation. As the altitude control is vital for tiltrotor’s near-ground landing, an Extended State Observer (ESO) control module of the Active Disturbance Rejection Control (ADRC) is designed to reduce altitude fluctuations in the fast mode transition, which makes the designed maneuver workable at very low altitudes. Simulations are conducted to verify the effectiveness of the designed maneuver and the validity of ESO control in various flight conditions. Flight test results that finally prove the effectiveness of the desired fast transition maneuver are reported.

UltraFlex太阳电池阵的结构优化

以提高圆形太阳电池阵的展开过程稳定性和固有频率为优化目标,以UltraFlex太阳电池阵为模型,采用有限元软件SAMCEF对其进行结构优化。以承重梁材料、斜梁开口高度、斜梁位置、梁截面高度及厚度5种结构参数为优化变量,进行了多种工况的展开动力学仿真和模态计算。经分析发现,结构展开后期太阳毯与支撑梁拉扯会导致支撑梁剪切应力激增;梁材料、斜梁位置与支撑梁截面高度对太阳电池阵的展开过程稳定性影响较大;当梁材料为碳纤维,斜梁位置为1100 mm,梁截面高度为20 mm时,展开过程稳定性最好;斜梁位置和承重梁截面厚度对结构固有频率影响较大;当斜梁位置为900 mm或1100 mm、承重梁截面厚度从3 mm增至3.5 mm时,系统固有频率涨幅最大,由此带来的质量增加可以接受。
