Aerodynamic design of tractor propeller for high-performance distributed electric propulsion aircraft

Aiming to maximize the aerodynamic performance of the Distributed Electric Propulsion (DEP) aircraft, a hybrid design framework which focuses on the aerodynamic performance of the propeller/wing integration has been developed and validated numerically. Variable-fidelity modelling for propeller aerodynamics has been used to achieve computational efficiency with reasonable accuracy. By optimizing the aerodynamic loading distributions on the tractor propeller disk, the induced slipstream is redistributed into a form that is beneficial for the wing downstream, based on which the propeller blade geometry is generated through a rapid inversed design procedure. As compared with the Minimum Induced Loss (MIL) propeller at a specified thrust level, significant improvements of both the lift-to-drag ratio of the wing and the propeller/wing integrated aerodynamic efficiency is achieved, which shows great promise to deliver aerodynamic benefits for the wing within the propeller slipstream without any additional devices.     

Studies of the geocenter motion using 16-years DORIS data

An accuracy of geocenter motion estimation is strongly dependent on the geodetic network size and stations distribution over the Earth’s surface. From this point of view DORIS system has an advantage, as its ground network of beacons consists of more than 50 sites, equally distributed over the Earth’s surface. Aiming to study variations of the geocenter movements, the results of DORIS data analysis for the time span 1993.0–2009.0 (inawd06.snx series), performed at the Analysis Centre of the Institute of astronomy of the Russian Academy of Sciences, have been used. DORIS data processing was made with GIPSY/OASIS II software, developed by Jet Propulsion Laboratory and modified for DORIS data processing by Institute Géographique National. Standard deviations of stations coordinates are estimated at the level 0.5–4.0 cm (internal consistency), depending on the number of satellites used in the solution. RMS of estimated components of the DORIS satellites orbits, compared with the solutions of other IDS analysis centres, do not exceed 1–2 cm. Weekly solutions for coordinates have been transformed from free network solutions (inawd06.snx series) to a well defined terrestrial reference frame ITRF2005 with the use of seven parameters of Helmert transformation, which were examined with a view to study variations of the geocenter movements (ina05wd01.geoc time series). In order to estimate linear trend, amplitudes, periods and phases of geocenter variation a method of linear regression was applied. The evaluated amplitudes of annual variations are of the order of 5–7 mm for X and Y components and 27–29 mm for Z component. Semi-annual amplitudes are also noticeable in all components (1–34 mm for X, Y and Z components). Secular trends in the DORIS geocenter coordinates are: −1.2, −0.1 and −0.3 mm/year for X, Y and Z directions respectively.     

基于图像特征分析的物体轮廓提取

对物体的轮廓进行分析提取,是计算机视觉方向的基础问题之一,对其进行研究对于复杂场景的分析理解至关重要。本文对室内场景图像进行研究,基于图像特征进行图像分割,提取物体轮廓。在彩色场景图像全局轮廓后验边界概率（gPb）提取算法的基础上,加入深度图像信息,对室内场景的彩色、深度（RGB-D）图像中的物体轮廓进行分析。通过多尺度信息融合,计算得到多尺度轮廓后验概率（mPb）和谱后验概率（sPb）,两后验概率加权综合得到gPb。而后结合超度量轮廓图与分水岭算法,对基于方向特征变化的gPb图像融合处理,最终得到清晰的物体轮廓。本文所提方法在通用的RGB-D数据库基础上进行实验。实验结果表明,本文所提出的方法能提取出清晰的室内物体轮廓图。

为了研究旋流静态混合器内瞬态壁压非线性符号化特性,利用高速动态数据采集系统对直径为0.1m、长径比为2的旋流静态混合器内湍流脉动壁压进行测量。基于瞬态壁压序列的有限统计复杂性对3种符号化转换方法进行了评估,并优化了数据采样长度和小波分解尺度。分析发现动态法保留静态混合流动有效信息能力优于其他两种方法。运用动态法和db2小波相结合对1～15尺度下的压力波动信号进行多尺度符号化复杂度分析。实验研究表明：随着轴向位置的增加,系统的稳定性增强,相对复杂度降低。7.8125Hz以上信号随着流体微团脉动频率的降低其相对复杂度呈双曲线衰减,而0～7.8125Hz信号相对复杂度随信号频率的降低呈线性衰减,表明静态混合是一种具有宏观大尺度稳定性和局部小尺度不稳定的多尺度结构的流体动力学系统。     

多传感器组合导航系统的改进多尺度滤波算法

多尺度滤波算法在多传感器组合导航系统中已得到成功应用，然而该算法用到多个时刻的量测向量，导致算法计算量过大，并影响系统的实时性。针对上述问题，首先利用分块技术与小波变换将时域内描述的系统原始状态方程转换为块状态方程，然后将实时得到的当前时刻的量测向量表达为块状态向量的形式，最后结合常规卡尔曼滤波技术与序贯滤波的思想，提出了一种改进的多传感器组合导航系统多尺度滤波方法。将该算法应用于GPS/SST/SINS多传感器组合导航系统，仿真结果验证了该算法不仅具有较好的实时性，而且相对于传统算法,系统的定位精度提高1倍以上。     

Comparative ISS accelerometric analyses

Two accelerometric records coming from the SAMSes es08 sensor in the Columbus module, the so-called Runs 14 and 33 in terms of the IVIDIL experiment, has been studied here using standard digital signal analysis techniques. The principal difference between both records is the vibrational state of the IVIDIL experiment, that is to say, during Run 14 the shaking motor of the experiment is active while that in Run 33 this motor is stopped. Identical procedures have been applied to a third record coming from the SAMSII 121f03 sensor located in the Destiny module during an IVIDIL quiescent period. All records have been downloaded from the corresponding public binary accelerometric files from the NASA Principal Investigator Microgravity Services, PIMS website and, in order to be properly compared, have the same number of data. Results detect clear differences in the accelerometric behavior, with or without shaking, despite the care of the designers to ensure the achievement of the ISS μg-vibrational requirements all along the experiments.
