However, in the assessment process, expert’s judgement will directly affect the assessment accuracy. In addition,there are many criteria involved in the missile design alternatives. Some criteria with poor performance may be compensated by other criteria with excellent performance, and then it is impossible to find the truly optimal alternative. Aimed at solving these problems, this paper proposes a synthetical assessment process based on fuzzy hesitant linguistic term set and the Gained and Lost Dominance Score(GLDS) method. In order to improve the assessment accuracy of experts and solve the problem that experts generate different opinions, combined with the advantages of fuzzy hesitant sets and linguistic term sets, the double hierarchy hesitant fuzzy linguistic term sets are used in this paper to improve the accuracy of expert’s judgement. In order to effectively combine expert’s experience with the data of criteria, the evidence theory and entropy weight method are used to transfer the expert’s judgement to the weight. In order to avoid selecting defective alternative of missile design, the GLDS is used to fuse expert information and criteria information. Sensitivity analysis shows that the assessment process has sensitivity to some extent. However, when the fluctuation of expert’s assessment makes the fluctuation of θ in the range of-5% to 5%, the impact on the results is not quite conspicuous. The analysis of calculation result and comparative analysis show that the assessment process proposed in this paper is accurate enough, has great advantage in selecting the current and potential optimal alternative of missile design, and avoids the alternatives with low criteria performance that cannot be compensated by other criteria being selected.展开更多

文摘In this study,the design,analysis,manufacturing,and testing of a 3D-printed conformal microstrip array antenna for high-temperature environments is presented.3D printing technology is used to fabricate a curved ceramic substrate,and laser sintering and microdroplet spraying processes are used to add the conductive metal on the curved substrate.The problems of gain loss,bandwidth reduction,and frequency shift caused by high temperatures are addressed by using a proper antenna design,with parasitic patches,slots,and metal resonant cavities.The antenna prototype is characterized by the curved substrates and the conductive metals for the power dividers,the patch,and the ground plane;its performance is examined up to a temperature of 600℃in a muffle furnace and compared with the results from the numerical analysis.The results show that the antenna can effectively function at 600℃and even higher temperatures.
文摘Integration of renewable energy sources into power systems requires efficient multilevel inverters,capable of producing high-quality output voltage with low total harmonic distortion(THD).Conventional multilevel inverters often suffer from high component count,high switching stress,low voltage gain,and increased cost,limiting their practical application.This paper introduces a high-gain novel topology for multilevel inverters with reduced number of total components per level count,low voltage stress on power conductive devices,and minimizing a cost function,which depends on the number of components,standing voltage on switches and diodes,output voltage levels,and gain.The designed topology,which can be applied in photovoltaic(PV)systems,utilizes only one direct current(DC)input supply and a modular structure with the ability of capacitor’s voltage self-balancing.The high gain property and low THD of the proposed topology are two advantages that provide sine output waveform,with no need to a high DC input voltage source.Moreover,generalized topology,consisting of cascaded basic units,has been proposed.A comprehensive method has been proposed to determining the values of DC supplies in this configuration,aiming to minimize redundant switching modes and maximize the voltage levels count.The comparison with some other multilevel inverters confirms the desired performance of the basic version given inverter.A prototype has been also implemented and the experimental results have been obtained to verify the advantages of the proposed 25-level topology.
文摘Since the launch of island-wide special customs operations at Hainan Free Trade Port(Hainan FTP),the proportion of “zero-tariff”imported goods has increased significantly from 21 to 74 percent, and high-quality goods from Southeast Asia can enter Hainan at a more competitive price. If goods contain imported materials and achieve at least 30 percent added value through local processing,they can enter the Chinese mainland market with an exemption from import tariffs, effectively gaining market access across China.
