The general shape of the load spectrum is that Type Ⅲ/Ⅳ cyclic loading and creep loading are superimposed on Type Ⅰ cyclic loading. Meanwhile, the sequence of the Type Ⅲ/Ⅳ cyclic and creep loading varies with mission. This work performed load spectrum test with this characteristic on the Ni-based alloy FGH96. Then a life prediction method was developed based on the Chaboche fatigue damage accumulation model and a modified time fraction model. Creep followed by Fatigue (C-F) test was carried out to reveal the creep-fatigue interaction and calibrate parameters. The results show that most test results fall within the 2-fold deviation band. The sequence of creep-fatigue loading within the load spectrum exhibited a limited effect on life. Finally, simplified methods were developed to improve analysis efficiency, and cases where simplified methods could replace the proposed method were discussed.展开更多

Because of its nearly constant flight height, the UAV mission planning problem can be treated as a 2-D （horizontal） path arrangement problem. By modeling the antiaircraft threat, the UAV mission planning can be mapped to the traveling seaman problem （TSP）. A new algorithm is presented to solve the TSP. The algorithm combines the traditional ant colony system （ACS） with particle swarm optimization （PSO）, thus being called the AC-PSO algorithm. It uses one by one tour building strategy like ACS to determine that the target point can be chosen like PSO. Experiments show that AC-PSO synthesizes both ACS and PSO and obtains excellent solution of the UAV mission planning with a higher accuracy.展开更多

The CHANG＇E-5T1 mission is firstly introduced with feasible flight goals derived based on the terminal trajectory and satellite status. The flight schemes are designed to include a lunar return and the libration points in the Sun-Earth/Moon and Earth-Moon systems, with an emphasis on the Earth-Moon triangle libration point thus far unexplored. Secondly, three schemes are proposed for the CHANG＇E-5T1 extended mission with different flight goals. The direct libration point orbit transfer and injection method is adopted to solve the issue in the transfer trajectory design.Furthermore, an innovative concept is proposed to transfer from the Earth-Moon collinear libration point to the triangle point using the Sun-Earth/Moon libration point. Finally, the merits and drawbacks of the three schemes are discussed in terms of flight time, control energy and frequency, flight distance, and goal value. As a result, the scheme including a lunar return and the Earth-Moon L2 libration point is selected for the CHANG＇E-5T1 extended mission. A flight to the Earth-Moon libration point is achieved, replicating the achievement of the ARTEMIS mission.展开更多

文摘As battlefield scale enlarges,cross-platform collaborative combat provides an appealing paradigm for modern warfare.Complicated constraints and vast solution space pose great challenge for reasonable and efficient mission planning,where path planning and target assignment are tightly coupled.In this paper,we focus on UAV mission planning under carrier delivery mode(e.g.,by aircraft carrier,ground vehicle,or transport aircraft) and design a three-layer hierarchical solution framework.In the first layer,we simultaneously determine delivery points and target set division by clustering.To address the safety concerns of radar risk and UAV endurance,an improved density peak clustering algorithm is developed by constraint fusio n.In the second layer,mission planning within each cluster is viewed as a coope rative multiple-task assignment problem.A hybrid heuristic algorithm that integrates a voting-based heuristic solution generation strategy(VHSG) and a stochastic variable neighborhood search(SVNS),called VHSG-SVNS,is proposed for rapid solution.Based on the results of the first two layers,the third layer transforms carrier path planning into a multiple-vehicle routing problem with time window.The cost between any two nodes is calculated by the A~* algorithm,and the genetic algorithm is then implemented to determine the global route.Finally,a practical mission scenario containing 200 targets is used to validate the effectiveness of the designed framework,where three layers cooperate well with each other to generate satisfactory combat scheduling.Comparisons are made in each layer to highlight optimum-seeking capability and efficiency of the proposed algorithms.Works done in this paper provide a simple but efficient solution framework for cross-platform cooperative mission planning problems,and can be potentially extended to other applications such as post-disaster search and rescue,forest surveillance and firefighting,logistics pick and delivery,etc.

文摘The lunar magma ocean hypothesis suggests that the primordial KREEP(an acronym of potassium(K),rare earth element(REE),and phosphorus(P))was the final product of fractional crystallization.However,the primordial KREEP(a.k.a.urKREEP)has never been identified in previous lunar samples or meteorites.The Moon is the focus of many countries’and agencies’space exploration plans,and with the advancement of technology,crewed missions have been proposed.We propose two candidate landing sites,located respectively in the northwest(9.5°W,0.9°S)and southeast(11.1°W,6.2°S)of Lalande crater(8.6°W,4.5°S),for future crewed missions,with the primary goal of sampling the speculated urKREEP.Both sites are situated on the Th-(a critical marker of KREEP)and silica-rich Lalande ejecta in the Mare Insularum and Mare Nubium,respectively.Their geolocations at the low latitude on the lunar nearside,the flat surface,and the low rock abundance suggest the sites are safe for landing and meet the needs of real-time Earth-Moon communication.The astronauts could perform many extravehicular activities,such as collecting KREEP-rich samples,screening clast samples,and drilling regolith cores,to gather a variety of samples,such as Lalande ejecta,basalts,Copernicus ejecta,and regolith.The returned samples are valuable to explore the speculated urKREEP,to reveal the relationship between heat-producing elements and volcanism,to refine the lunar cratering chronology function,and to investigate volatiles in the regolith.
文摘Henry Killam Murphy,an American architect in the 20th century(1877—1954),advocated the idea of adaptive architecture and the traditional renaissance design method,and believed that different countries and regions should have their own architectural art.He recognized and appreciated traditional Chinese architecture and used it in Chinese architectural design.Based on Henry Killam Murphy’s design of Tsinghua University,Ginling College and Beijing Yenching University in China from 1914 to 1935,this paper discussed and probed into the construction of Murphy’s creation concept and technique,and the selection of the Architectural History of China and Yang Bingde’s Blend of Chinese&Western Architectural Culture in Chinese Modern History,and also compared to Murphy and Chinese architects of the 20th century,so as to demonstrate different design attitudes of Chinese traditional architectural culture and the western architectural culture during the fusion,and Henry Killam Murphy’s impact and far-reaching significance on China’s modern campus planning.

文摘This paper studies on a division method of the whole aeroengine loading spectrum flight mission segment and rotor speed mission segment,which is based on the actual flight actions and related to the flight operations of aeroengine and is suitable for the variable-speed aeroengines such as turbojet and turbofan.Through the research,the aeroengine loading spectrum operation-related mission segments can be divided,which can provide important data basis for the life research on the structures which are sensitive to flight maneuver(such as the main shaft,large gearbox and installation section),lay a foundation for the simulation,compilation and prediction of the whole aeroengine loading spectrum.Firstly,based on the summary of basic flight actions in actual flight,the division of flight mission segment was realized by programming.Moreover,the aeroengine rotor speed mission segments,associated with flight actions and missions,were divided based on the flight mission segment division results.Besides,the efficiency and accuracy of the mission segment division results were verified by adopting measured loading spectrum data.Finally,the characteristics of speed mission segment division results were compared and analyzed in tables and figures.The comparison results show that the characteristics of similar speed mission segments are similar,while the characteristics of different speed mission segments are different.And the shapes of similar mission segments vary to the change of flight actions and operations,which can reflect the operation-related feature of the segments.
文摘Choosing the best path during unmanned air vehicle （UAV） flying is the target of the UAV mission planning problem. Because of its nearly constant flight height, the UAV mission planning problem can be treated as a 2-D （horizontal） path arrangement problem. By modeling the antiaircraft threat, the UAV mission planning can be mapped to the traveling seaman problem （TSP）. A new algorithm is presented to solve the TSP. The algorithm combines the traditional ant colony system （ACS） with particle swarm optimization （PSO）, thus being called the AC-PSO algorithm. It uses one by one tour building strategy like ACS to determine that the target point can be chosen like PSO. Experiments show that AC-PSO synthesizes both ACS and PSO and obtains excellent solution of the UAV mission planning with a higher accuracy.
文摘Unmanned aerial vehicle（UAV） resource scheduling means to allocate and aggregate the available UAV resources depending on the mission requirements and the battlefield situation assessment.In previous studies,the models cannot reflect the mission synchronization;the targets are treated respectively,which results in the large scale of the problem and high computational complexity.To overcome these disadvantages,a model for UAV resource scheduling under mission synchronization is proposed,which is based on single-objective non-linear integer programming.And several cooperative teams are aggregated for the target clusters from the available resources.The evaluation indices of weapon allocation are referenced in establishing the objective function and the constraints for the issue.The scales of the target clusters are considered as the constraints for the scales of the cooperative teams to make them match in scale.The functions of the intersection between the ＂mission time-window＂ and the UAV ＂arrival time-window＂ are introduced into the objective function and the constraints in order to describe the mission synchronization effectively.The results demonstrate that the proposed expanded model can meet the requirement of mission synchronization,guide the aggregation of cooperative teams for the target clusters and control the scale of the problem effectively.

文摘Flight schemes for the CHANG＇E-5T1 extended mission are investigated in this paper.In the flight scheme and trajectory design, the remaining propellant of the CHANG＇E-5T1 mission is utilized. The CHANG＇E-5T1 mission is firstly introduced with feasible flight goals derived based on the terminal trajectory and satellite status. The flight schemes are designed to include a lunar return and the libration points in the Sun-Earth/Moon and Earth-Moon systems, with an emphasis on the Earth-Moon triangle libration point thus far unexplored. Secondly, three schemes are proposed for the CHANG＇E-5T1 extended mission with different flight goals. The direct libration point orbit transfer and injection method is adopted to solve the issue in the transfer trajectory design.Furthermore, an innovative concept is proposed to transfer from the Earth-Moon collinear libration point to the triangle point using the Sun-Earth/Moon libration point. Finally, the merits and drawbacks of the three schemes are discussed in terms of flight time, control energy and frequency, flight distance, and goal value. As a result, the scheme including a lunar return and the Earth-Moon L2 libration point is selected for the CHANG＇E-5T1 extended mission. A flight to the Earth-Moon libration point is achieved, replicating the achievement of the ARTEMIS mission.
