A study of land transformation processes after the atomic bombing damage in Hiroshima

We first analyzed aerial, satellite and surface photographs of Hiroshima taken in 1939, 1945, 1947, 1972, 1980 and 1982, in time sequence. It is rather difficult to recognize traces of damage caused by the atomic bombing from surface level with the few exceptions such as the Atomic Bomb Memorial Dome. However, the ground surface pattern of central Hiroshima analyzed by LANDSAT MSS data shows similarities to damage caused by the atomic bombing and the distribution of residual radioactivities.     

Design and Performance of the ICON EUV Spectrograph

We present the design, implementation, and on-ground performance measurements of the Ionospheric Connection Explorer EUV spectrometer, ICON EUV, a wide field (\(17^{\circ}\times 12^{\circ}\)) extreme ultraviolet (EUV) imaging spectrograph designed to observe the lower ionosphere at tangent altitudes between 100 and 500 km. The primary targets of the spectrometer, which has a spectral range of 54–88 nm, are the Oii emission lines at 61.6 nm and 83.4 nm. Its design, using a single optical element, permits a $0\stackrel{{}^{°}}{.}26$ imaging resolution perpendicular to the spectral dispersion direction with a large (\(12^{\circ} \)) acceptance parallel to the dispersion direction while providing a slit-width dominated spectral resolution of \(R\sim25\) at 58.4 nm. Pre-flight calibration shows that the instrument has met all of the science performance requirements.     

大型空间结构的自适应控制

本文将Bar-Kana等人的模型参考自适应控制法(MRAC)用于柔性结构的自适应控制中,原方法要求系统的输入维数等于输出维数。对于柔性的大型空间结构(LSS),观测量的数目往往大于输入量的数目。本文采用组合LSS各观测点的信号,形成综合输出矢量Y_P,以满足自适应控制系统中,用较少的控制输入达到控制LSS结构中较多观测点的要求。为了克服跟踪误差,本文建议用最优返馈增益阵作为输出阵C_P,并采用LQR理论以求C_P。 本文将大型空间结构的实例简化成离散模型,进行模拟计算,计算结果说明系统有较好的跟踪特性,当LSS的柔度变化较大时,系统具有跟踪的鲁棒性。
