Abstract:
Aircraft water impact crashworthiness must be considered for the aircraft used near or over the sea. The current crashworthiness criteria, design approaches and analysis methods have mainly focused on the ground impact conditions, without adequately accounting for fundamental differences associated with water crashes. This is because the crash dynamics in water impact condition is extremely complex with multi-physics interacting. To simplify the problem, an uncoupled method is proposed, using finite element simulation combined with corresponding experiments. A finite element model of reasonably simplified aircraft structure including the fuselage, wing and empennage is established by using MSC.PATRAN/MSC.DYTRAN code. The loading condition is transformed from the ditching test and thirteen dynamic load cases are considered in computation. Corresponding stress distributions for each case are predicted. It is shown that the strength of the skin on the bottom of fuselage will not be failed.

Abstract:
According to the requirements of impact angle constraint of the missile, a new terminal guidance law was deduced base on the Lyapunov method to null miss distance and to achieve a desired impact attitude angle, simultaneously. The impact angle constraint was turned to line of sight angle constraint in this method. The proposed guidance law contains two parts that base on line of sight angle rate and the difference between the line of sight angle and the required line of sight angle, respectively. To adjust the two parts portion reasonably the guidance goal with the overload constraint can be realized. The proposed guidance law is simple and convenient to be realized in engineering. Besides that, the best initial condition when the guidance law imported was analyzed considering the missile-s overload availability and the seeker-s performance. The simulation result for model of some missiles shows the effectiveness of this proposed guidance law.

Abstract:
Experimental design was introduced to software reliability test to take full advantage of resources and optimize test data. Typical operations were selected by orthogonal experiment design in the development of operational profiles and optimized results were produced by combinatorial design in the generation of test data considering of occurrence probabilities. A full software reliability test consists of determining the system modes profile, developing operational profiles by orthogonal experiment design, choosing run categories by combinatorial design and generating reliability test data to execute test finally. An automation test data generation tool was developed according to the method and an example was applied with it. Results show that it can not only generate software reliability test data but also finding more software defects.

Abstract:
Based on the features of glint and clutter sea-sky blending background as well as point target with one pixel, a fast location algorithm for sea-sky blending area and an extended median-mean filter for all direction ring-neighborhood difference data based on pattern classification were designed as pre-processing methods. The all-direction difference was re-carried out again so that candidates of point target can be detected by segmentation with an adaptive threshold based on histogram. The morphologic filter was used to keep point targets with only one pixel. Finally the moving point target and its trajectory can be detected in sequence images based on trajectory matching and direct search if mismatching occurs. The simulation results with 220 frame images which were made by adding simulation point target in real images show that moving point targets with signal to noise ratio (SNR) not lower than 0.5 can be detected effectively: the correct detection rate is 91% in one frame and 95% in a sequence of three frames, in addition the false alarm in a sequence of three frames does not occur for the 22 frame images without simulation point target.

Abstract:
A simple computational model for isothermal phase change problem was based on the enthalpy formulation. The temperature field and liquid fraction field were decoupled of the computational model to solve the temperature of the control volume separately which was melting/freezing or not. The computational model was verified with a test problem of a rectangular container. The agreement of the computation results with the experimental data indicates this method could be used to estimate the model-s isothermal phase change quickly and effectively. The numerical analysis of the melting time of phase change material for rectangular and cylindrical containers was then performed using the computational model. The results show that the phase change material of rectangular container requires nearly half of the melting time as for the cylindrical container of the same volume and characteristic size.

Abstract:
Anodic oxidation coatings formed on the surface of magnesium alloys at higher voltage could degrade the mechanical performance of the magnesium alloys material. In order to overcome the shortcoming of mechanical performance reduction, the electrochemical oxidation films were prepared on AZ91D magnesium alloy in Na2SiO3 mainly contained solution and the electrochemical oxidation voltage which was supplied by AC power supply was from 10 V to 110 V. The growth process of the electrochemical oxidation on the surface of AZ91D magnesium alloys was studied. The influence of oxidation voltage and electrochemical oxidation time on the oxidation films was discussed. The microstructure of the electrochemical oxidation films formed at different oxidation voltage and time were analyzed as well. The results show that the corrosion resistance of the electrochemical oxidation films formed at 10 V is as good as that formed at 70~110 V. The growth process of the electrochemical oxidation films formed at 10 V could be summarized under four steps which are grain-like, block-like, integrated insulating and cross-layer films respectively.

Abstract:
To solve the re-entry control problem of reusable launch vehicle (RLV), a reaction control system (RCS) based on fuzzy logic was presented. The characteristic of RCS was analyzed deeply, and the RCS model based on effect coefficient and relay feature was built. Then the three-channel RCS controller based on fuzzy logic by using the expertise knowledge was designed. Both of the attitude angles and attitude angles- rate errors were used to be the controller-s inputs. These inputs were processed by fuzzy logic controller, and then the RCS commands to each channel were generated. This controller was testified in the 6 degree of freedom simulation system and compared its effect with proportional-integral-differential (PID) controller. It was proved by the simulation results that the controller has better tracking performance and the RCS outputs are more efficient.

Abstract:
H.264 video coding standard is high complex and time-consuming owing to its multi-mode in intra prediction and multi-size sub-block modes in inter prediction to improve the efficiency of I frame and P frame. A new algorithm with fast mode selection based on wavelet transforms in intra prediction and combined with pre-estimation of intra mode in inter prediction was proposed. Firstly, the method utilized the optimal modes selected in low frequent part transformed by wavelet to estimate the possible modes in sub-block of original macro-block. This method reduces the calculate times from 9 to 3.75 averagely. Secondly, pre-estimation of intra mode in inter prediction was implemented using the parameter of mean removed mean absolute difference, and it reduced the P frame coding time. Simulation experiment results from video sequences show the method effective with the encoding time of sequences lower about 19% averagely while peak signal-to-noise ratio lower 0.0664dB at most.

Abstract:
The turnaround time (TAT) is one of main measurement parameter for evaluating the fight capability of military airplane. In order to solve the problem of how to analysis and compute military airplane-s TAT, based on the discussion of impact factors on TAT from military airplane-s mission type, design characteristics and operational support resource, a calculation method for one military aircraft-s TAT was provided. While computing the TAT, the airplane-s mission type percentage was integrated and mission type matrix and TAT matrix was constructed. A matrix was used to define the logic relationship between work items of turnaround activity. The elements of this matrix were ranked and ordered topologically, and the results were put in sets for computing. Based on the results critical work items of each mission type TAT were determined, and the critical impacting factors on this mission type TAT were obtained. These factors will provide auxiliary decision for improving military airplane design and operational support resources planning.

Abstract:
The structure of the natural superhydrohlbic surface, lotus leaf, was studied, which inspired the fabrication method of superhydrophobic surfaces. Various copper surfaces were fabricated in different current densities via electroplating. As the current density increased, the water contact angle (CA) increased first and then decreased. When the current density was about 0.08 A/cm2, the electroplated copper surface which resembled the lotus leaf reached superhydrophobic state (CA=153.5°, SA (sliding angle) = 7.9°). The surface with lotus leaf structure is superhydrophobic without any surface modification. It-s suggested that this is a meta-stable state in Cassie state. As long as the surface structure is suitable, a hydrophobic surface could be gotten, or even superhydrophobic surface, on hydrophilic materials. The hydrophobic mechanism was also analyzed. The results widen the horizon of fabricating superhydrophobic surfaces on hydrophilic materials and give light to the existing popular theories.

Abstract:
Based on the foremost two non-probabilistic methods, second-order interval analysis method and second-order convex model method were advanced. The uncertain theories described all the uncertainties as interval or convex set. Then through the Taylor series expansion, the interval range of fatigue crack growth rate and its life with uncertainty parameters can be estimated. The inclusion relation of traditional probabilistic method and two uncertain theories was presented. This inclusion relation can verify the results of examples. The fatigue crack growth rate and its life of 00Cr17Ni14Mo2 were computed to illustrate that uncertain theories are effective by comparing with the interval analysis method, convex model method and the traditional probabilistic method. Their advantages are that they only need less statistical data and the method is simple, practical and with high precision.

Abstract:
For model reduction of flexible spacecraft, conventional first-order balanced truncation(FOBT) method will destroy the second-order structure and dynamic properties of original system. In order to overcome this drawback, a new structure-preserving approximated balanced truncation method for model reduction of flexible spacecraft was proposed. The modal cost was described by a cross Gramian and the closed-form solution of cross Gamian was obtained via special form of dynamical equation of flexible spacecraft. The new method preserves the second-order structure, symmetry and positive definiteness of the original system. The numerical results show that the new method is superior to conventional first-order balanced truncation(FOBT) method for improving efficiency without sacrificing accuracy.

Abstract:
Normalized cross correlation operator (NCCO) was used for pattern matching to localize popular cross-shaped features in microscopic vision. Distribution feature of similarity function around peak zone was found to be four symmetry hyperboloid planes. Inspired by this, some research work on pattern matching of geometry image features (such as rectangular, circular, etc.) was presented. A probability distribution based formula computing NCCO with two binary images was proposed. Mathematic models of some typical geometry image features- (rectangular, circular, cross-type, box-type) similar functions around peak point were derived from and proved. Based on these models, some experiments about template image optimum and feature size optimum were conducted on a microscopic vision workcell. Conclusions above are practically useful to image positioning, image calibration and image tracking techniques.

Abstract:
Existent measures of fused image quality were analyzed to research the objective evaluation problem of remote sensing image fusion. A new approach based on the singular value decomposition (SVD) was proposed for the remote sensing image fusion assessment. This method measured the divergence of the singular value features between the source images and fused image, and calculated energy distortion of fused image from source images. By that means, effect of fusion algorithm was measured. Experiments were conducted from two aspects to confirm the idea. When the source images including SAR image, this method is more effective than the Piella-s evaluation methods and Xydeas-s evaluation methods. In the other hand, the experiments of different kinds of sensors and pixel-level fusion algorithms show that the objective evaluation appears highly consistent with the subjective evaluation. It is an effective and universal assessment method with high coherence to the subjective factors.

Abstract:
By using the folded-cascode structure, the problem on high supply voltage of the stacking trans-conductance stage and switching-transistor stage was solved, and the trade-off among the high trans-conductance, high linearity of the trans-conductance stage and the low noise of the switching-transistor stage were also realized.

When the frequency of the radio frequency (RF) signal, local oscillator (LO) signal and the intermediate frequency (IF) signal are 1575.42MHz, 1570MHz and 5.42MHz, respectively, the simulation results show that the mixer features a conversion gain ( GC ) of 15dB, a dual sideband (DSB) noise figure of 12.5dB, a third-order input intercept point (IIP3) of -0.4dBm, and consumes 3.8mW at a power supply voltage of 1.2V. The mixer can be applied to the electronic systems within the realm of the aviation aerospace.

Abstract:
In order to effectively reduce flow distortion produced in the S-shaped inlet, a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) procedure was used to design vortex generator installations near the entry of the diffuser. Several parameters, i.e. the ratio of generator blade height to local boundary layer thickness, the locating position, angle against the centerline, that characterize the vortex generator array were discussed to determine their effects. Especially the numbers of blades were varied to minimize total pressure distortion by restructuring the development of secondary flow. The results show that by using a properly designed vortex generator array total pressure distortion can be greatly reduced and flow separation can be totally prevented, the vortex generator with 8 pairs of blades reduced the circumferential distortion from 0.11 to 0.09. These results should provide valuable guidance in designing vortex generator installations in the S-shaped inlet.

Abstract:
A new method of vortex flow meter based on variable gain amplifier and band pass switched-capacitor active filter is designed. The singlechip processor measures the range and frequency of the vortex flow meter output signals by the inner analog to digital converter (A/D), and the gain of the variable gain amplifier is controlled by the digital to analog converter (D/A) of the processor, then the relative stable active signal is provided to the subsequent measurement circuits. The band pass switched-capacitor active filter traces the frequency of the variable gain amplifier output signal, it is guaranteed that the center frequency of the band pass filter is near to the signal frequency, so the favourable filter result is obtained. The frequency of the filtered signal and the flux of the liquid are calculated by the processor. The experimental results show that the complex amplifier circuit due to the large variable range of the vortex flow meter output signal is replaced, and the discontinuous problem of the signal is solved. The noise of the signal is effectively restrained because that the center frequency of the band pass filter is adjusted by the processor.

Abstract:
Performance analysis for monopropellant micro-thruster using nitrous oxide (N2O) propellant was carried out based on the thermodynamic computation. Preliminary results show that decomposition rate of nitrous oxide and the expansion ratio of nozzle both have effects on the specific impulse of the thruster. Experiments of nitrous oxide catalytic decomposition at different initial catalyst bed temperature were conducted in testers of different structures. Self-sustaining decomposition reaction of nitrous oxide was observed at preheated temperature of 250℃. The performance of the sub-Newton micro-thruster was greatly affected by the combustion chamber structure and the loading factor of catalyst bed according to experimental results. Although the results are not conclusive because of the small initial test set, preliminary numbers demonstrate the feasibility of the N2O monopropellant micro-thruster.
