2010, 36(12): 1387-1391.
Abstract:
In order to achieve flexible spacecraft high precision attitude control, using the perturbation method, the dynamic equations were divided into the zero order and first order systems. For the zero-order nonlinear time-invariant systems, taking into account the inertia uncertainty and disturbance, the nonlinear direct adaptive control law was improved, and the improvement of the gain adaptation law aimed at the higher precision. Also, the stability proof was given. For the first-order system, the proportional-integral(PI) controller and positive position feedback(PPF) controller were designed to suppression the vibration. The simulation shows that the perturbation analysis and the corresponding controller design can achieve the flexible spacecraft high precision attitude control.

2010, 36(12): 1400-1403.
Abstract:
Active flutter suppression (AFS), an attractive branch of aeroelasticity, and playing an important role of aircraft design was conducted on a two-dimensional wing which had a tailing-edge control surface. Sliding mode control (SMC) for AFS and its feasibility were investigated theoretically. The basic equations of motion were established by using quasi-steady aerodynamics forces.

The principle of system stability provided by the SMC was discussed by state variables trajectory analysis. Further discussions about system robustness and time delay effects were also given. The results indicate that SMC strategy could be used for AFS and has potential usefulness in active aeroelastic control.

Zhang Yongtao, Huang Zhen, Xiong Huagang
2010, 36(12): 1412-1416.
Abstract:
Real time scheduling algorithm used in avionics full duplex switched Ethernet (AFDX) switches was studied, which is a key technique in AFDX. A priority real time scheduling algorithm based on rate-guaranteed(PRTRG) was proposed. Real time performance of PRTRG was analyzed using network calculus theory. Upper delay bounds with first in first out(FIFO) scheduling under a typical topology configuration were compared. The results confirm that PRTRG algorithm can effectively decrease the upper delay bounds of high priority data without losing the determinism of low priority data. At the same time, PRTRG algorithm prevents the congestion of one flow from spreading to another, and isolates the flow in the switch.

Zhang Jiong, Lei Xiaoyong, Dai Shuling
2010, 36(12): 1422-1426.
Abstract:
According to the client server(CS) architecture in distributed virtual environment(DVE), it extended the problem of scale extension into the optimization of node partition between multi-node and multi-server. An evaluation equation of the node partition was also proposed. Based on the characteristics of DVE application, the whole process was divided into two steps,predisposition and runtime regulation. The process of predisposition was achieved partition rapidly and efficiently with density primary strategies and greedy randomized adaptive search procedures(GRASP), and the evaluation equation was used to adjust partition result. In real-time regulation process, the condition of node partition was restricted strictly to achieve real time distribution. Compared with the traditional methods, this method has better solved the contradiction between the real-time quality and the maturity of distribution, and has been proved to be of great practical value. The experimental results illustrate the effectiveness of this method and a conclusion was drawn.

2010, 36(12): 1427-1431.
Abstract:
An experimental investigation was conducted in order to study the effect of cyclic hygrothermal environment on the interfacial property of CCF300/5428 composites. The moisture weight and interlaminar shear strength(ILSS) of CCF300/5428 specimens of each stage during three absorption-desorption cyclical processes were tested. The morphology of interface between carbon fiber and resin was characterised by applying scanning electron microscope(SEM) method. The results show that the composites exhibit higher diffusivity after suffering reabsorption steps. The reversible effects of water on ILSS of the composites can be eliminated after desorption. The ILSS of the composites degrade obviously due to high temperature, while the humidity has weak effect on the mechanical performance of the composites at room temperature.

Zou Li, Ding Quanxin, Zhou Rui
2010, 36(12): 1432-1435.
Abstract:
A distributed leader-follower heterogeneous multi-missiles cooperative guidance law was proposed based on local nearest-neighbor communication. The distributed local communication topology between the missiles was modeled using the graph-theoretic methods. The relations between the communication topology and the performance of cooperative guidance system for multiple heterogeneous networked missiles were investigated. Only the measurable states of missiles were required to be communicated between the nearest-neighbor missiles for the proposed distributed heterogeneous multi-missiles cooperative guidance law, which resulted in the characteristics of scalability and little communications. As an example, the distributed leader-follower missile cooperative guidance law for one leader and four followers was designed. The simulation results demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed distributed cooperative guidance law.

Abstract:
Air velocity field and temperature field of cockpit will affect the pilots- thermal comfort and performance directly, which are important parts need to be considered in the design of cockpit structure and environmental control system. After full-size three-dimensional model of B737-800 cockpit being established, a commercial computational fluid dynamics(CFD) software Fluent was used to calculate the flow field and temperature field of cockpit in high-altitude night work. Then the average temperature evaluation and the predicted mean vote(PMV)on the thermal sensation scale were used to evaluate cockpit temperature environment. A questionnaire was given to the pilot to obtain cockpit air flow and temperature comfort subjective evaluation. The results of simulation and subjective evaluation both indicate the B737-800 cockpit is a comfortable environment at night at high altitude. Besides, the trunk and legs feel a little uncomfortable as a result of slight coolness. The agreement of simulation results and evaluation results validates the accuracy of the cockpit airflow thermal simulation.

Li Xudong, Cui Lei, Jiang Hongzhi, Zhao Huijie
2010, 36(12): 1444-1447.
Abstract:
The calibration of structure parameters of a triangulation-based fly point scanning shape measurement system is usually a non-linear problem. A practical and easy-to-use calibration procedure of such system was proposed and implemented. The proposed calibration procedure was based on the coordinate transformation between the feature points and their images taken by the measurement system. Several pictures of a special designed planar calibration board were taken from arbitrary orientations. There was no need to precisely measure the position and altitude of the calibration board. A planar board surface and a cylinder surface with known diameter were measured by using the obtained structure parameters. The average error of the distances between measuring points and the fitted plane or cylinder was used to evaluate the calibration accuracy. The proposed calibration procedure can meet the needs of the calibration such as validity and stabilization. It can also be used for the calibration of other triangulation based shape measurement systems.

2010, 36(12): 1448-1452.
Abstract:
To improve the measurement precision of micro electro mechanical system (MEMS) gyroscope, an on-line compensation approach for MEMS gyroscope random error was presented. The autoregressive moving average (ARMA) model of random error was established under static condition, and the fictitious noise compensation technique was introduced to accommodate the time-varying model. Due to the unknown movement of carrier, the technique of maneuvering target tracking was presented to obtain the maneuvering angular rate model. The random error and angular rate were estimated in real-time by using adaptive Kalman filter in the dynamic test. The result of test indicates that the model of random error, the angular rate, and the algorithm of filtering can satisfy the dynamic application of the MEMS-based attitude heading reference system. Furthermore, the precision of system is greatly improved after compensated.

Wang Yan
2010, 36(12): 1453-1456.
Abstract:
Variable structure control for variable pump controlling variable motor (VPCVM) systems based on feedback linearization was presented to overcome the defects, such as huge overflow losses, slow speed regulating and poor full capacity utilization, arisen from the conventional independent control of variable pump or variable motor in the systems. The mathematical model of VPCVM was established, and the multiplicative nonlinear property existing in the system caused trouble for the motor speed controlling. To improve the VPCVM performance, the VPCVM nonlinear model was transformed into a linear system by feedback linearization. For the closed hydraulic speed controlling system with double-variable, the variable pump displacement can be deduced from motor expected speed and variable motor displacement. The variable structure controller was designed to control variable motor speed and its stability was proved according to Lyapunov theory. Simulations show that our approach has the capacity for speeding up system response and reducing overshoot of VPCVM system, and features with robust performance.

Li Na, Zhao Huijie
2010, 36(12): 1457-1460.
Abstract:
An automatic endmember extraction method based on the extended morphology and the orthogonal subspace projection was proposed to solve the problems, including identification of different endmembers with similar spectra and the endmembers extraction used by the spectral or spatial information only. Extended dilation and erosion operators were used to calculate the morphological eccentricity index (MEI), and the MEI was used to extract the endmember set. Spectral angle matching (SAM) was applied to distinguish different endmembers, and then the endmember was projected to its orthogonal subspace to eliminate the effect of endmembers that had been extracted. The airborne hyperspectral data was used to evaluate the performance of this method. The results illuminate that image endmembers are extracted automatically without any prior information and endmembers with similar spectra are distinguished effectively.

Wang Xuee, Zhang Hua, Wang Hong, Fu Liqun
2010, 36(12): 1461-1464,1479.
Abstract:
A computational and particle image velocimetry(PIV) experimental study of three dimensional steady separation structure generated in juncture laminar flows was presented. It confirms the existence of outmost attachment saddle point structure of horseshoe vortex in juncture flows. The outmost streamline doesn’t rise from the plate but attaches to the plate by passing through a space singular point. There also exists an evolvement rule of horseshoe vortex structure from outmost attachment saddle point structure to outmost separation saddle point structure. The evolvement is influenced by the blunt extent of the model, the boundary layer thickness and the Reynolds number. Under curtain boundary layer and the Reynolds number conditions, the horseshoe vortex will change from outmost separation saddle point structure to outmost attachment saddle point structure as the blunt extent of the model becomes smaller. For a same model, the horseshoe vortex will tend to be outmost separation saddle point structure as the boundary layer thickness and the Reynolds number increases, contrarily it will tend to be outmost separation saddle point structure.

2010, 36(12): 1465-1468.
Abstract:
A harmful effect on stability and tracking accuracy of the system was produced by the time-delay of tracker in an image-based target tracking system. Analyzing the ideal control command of the electro-optical platform servo system, a delay compensation method based on adaptive estimation was proposed. This method used target position and unmanned aerial vehicle position and attitude to predict the control signals of the electro-optical platform. The target velocity was estimated by an adaptive estimation rapidly. The results of simulation show that the tracking accuracy of the electro-optic platform as the target maneuvers and the unmanned aerial vehicle maneuvers can be improved effectively.

2010, 36(12): 1469-1472.
Abstract:
Thermal-hydraulic model of aerial piston pump was established based on analysis of power loss and heat transfer. Power loss model of pump was obtained, considering the influence of load pressure, input rotational speed, swash plate angel and oil viscosity. With the analysis of heat transfer in pump, the thermal-hydraulic model of pump was established to display the temperature change in all parts of the pump, which takes advantage of formula of temperature change in control volume. A hydraulic system, consisting of piston pump was simulated with Dymola to show efficiency and power loss of pump at different input rotational speed and load pressure. Temperature rising in different parts of pump at different input rotational speed and supply flow was analyzed.The result shows that the input rotational speed and load pressure impact the efficiency and power loss of pump, and temperature rising in pump presents differently in characteristics at different input rotational speed and supply flow.
Object-FMA based software code inspection approach
Huang Baiqiao, Zhang Hong, Lu Minyan, Li Zhen
2010, 36(12): 1473-1479.
Abstract:
There are two disadvantages in the checklist used in traditional code inspection: there is no mapping mode from code to the defect record of checklist, and the defect modes in the checklist is incomplete which may result in omitting the code defects in code inspection. To resolve the above two problems, a new code inspection approach was presented by dividing the code into different levels and using failure modes analysis at different levers instead of the traditional checklist. Furthermore, an object failure modes analysis method (Object-FMA) was proposed to systematically analyze the failure modes of code objects and establish the failure modes database for code object in different levels. Finally, this Object-FMA approach was applied into the code inspection of military software. The results show that the proposed approach can provide a mapping mode from the code objects to the failure modes database, and improve the efficiency of the code inspection. The results also show that this Object-FMA approach can not only find the defects in the code lexical, syntax or semantic which can also be detected by traditional checklist, but also effectively find the defects caused by the negligence of developer or the algorithm error which may can-t be detected by traditional checklist.

2010, 36(12): 1490-1494.
Abstract:
Taking into account multiple objects detection in dynamic video scene, a method based on variational optimization of optical flow and mean shift was proposed. A variational optimization model for optical flow field was built according to constraints of multiple objects detection in dynamic video scene. The proper numerical solution was then given by this kind of optimizing calculus of variation. With the optical flow optimized solution, a high precise segmentation method was proposed. This approach can be used in the situations of both motion camera and stationary one. Meanwhile it can also be used to detect several targets in dynamic scenes simultaneously without learning in advance and manual intervention so as to be implemented automatically. A lot of experiment results validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
