超声速转弯流道内迟滞现象的初步研究

采用特征线法,通过预先给定中心线马赫数分布,设计了消波的二维超声速转弯流道。研究了不同反压作用下转弯流道内的激波串结构、壁面沿程静压分布和壁面分离区演化等特征,分析了流道内激波串波结构与反压的关系,发现了激波串波头很难稳定在流道拐点附近。当激波串波头靠近流道拐点时,流场具有双解。流动双解区向单解区演化过程中,伴随有大分离区在上、下壁面之间的迅速转换和激波串结构的快速演化。     

节流方式对隔离段流场结构影响的数值仿真

在隔离段尾部设计节流装置是试验上模拟反压对隔离段流场影响的常用方法。针对不同节流方式对隔离段流场结构的影响,采用数值模拟方法进行了比较研究。比较三种节流方式,包括在斜坡面尾部设置节流直板、在头罩面尾部设置节流直板和流场中间布置对称斜楔等。结果表明,由于隔离段斜坡面和头罩面边界层发展的非对称性,三种方式所产生的激波串结构均靠近头罩一侧的壁面。第二种方式产生的激波串强度较大,边界层分离较为严重,容易造成流场堵塞,在实际中不利于激波串的试验研究。另外两种方式所产生的流场结构类似,但是第一种方式在设计加工上相对容易实现。     

固体火箭发动机二次喷射控制矢量喷管流场仿真

采用基于Favre平均的三维N-S方程和k-ε湍流模型对固体火箭发动机二次喷射推力矢量喷管复杂干扰内流场进行数值模拟。空间上采用三阶精度差分格式进行求解,时间上采用隐式Jacobi点迭代方法进行迭代推进,直至流场收敛。数值模拟得到矢量喷管二次射流的激波系结构,以及复杂的主/次流干扰流动图像。二次喷射流场包含复杂的涡系结构和波系结构,还存在着边界层与激波的相互干扰、自由剪切层、激波、膨胀波和大尺寸分离。数值模拟还表明,高温燃气射流导致喷射孔附近喷管壁面处的温度相当高,需采取相应的热防护措施。     

弹体前缘圆孔凹槽有/无喷射流机理研究北大核心

为了研究不同圆孔凹槽直径及有/无喷射流流动机理,采用标准的k-w SST湍流模型数值计算方法进行分析。结果表明:当流体经过圆孔凹槽时,在圆孔凹槽边缘会形成膨胀波和压缩波,在圆孔凹槽内可能会形成涡流结构,并保持低速流体。当圆孔凹槽直径逐渐增加时,引起弹体壁面声速径向距离增加。同时,随着攻角的增大,圆孔凹槽内的静压逐渐降低;圆孔凹槽喷流速度的增加导致凹槽出口会出现激波现象,当喷流速度达到600 m/s时,凹槽出口激波强度明显增加,圆孔凹槽内静压减小。

(修，2撤3)关键几何参数对超声速膨胀器流场和性能影响的数值研究

为了揭示关键几何参数对超声速膨胀器流动特性影响的规律,对3种隔板安装角和5种出进口面积比超声速膨胀器设计工况下的流场进行了数值研究。结果表明：随隔板安装角增加,斜激波向出口迁移,斜激波强度略有降低,超声速膨胀器膨胀比减小,效率提高;随出进口面积比增加,流道内高速区显著扩大并逐渐靠近压力面,斜激波增强,出口流动损失增加,超声速膨胀器膨胀比增大,效率降低。为获得综合性能较优超声速膨胀器结构,需在较小出进口面积比和较大隔板安装角之间做折衷选择。     

高超声速气动热化学非平衡效应数值分析研究

通过数值分析研究了化学非平衡效应对气动加热问题的影响.分别以量热完全气体、单组分热完全气体和5组分化学非平衡气体为气体模型,计算了圆柱钝头的绕流流场和壁面热流密度分布,比较并分析了高温化学非平衡效应对流场特性,尤其是气动加热特性的影响.结果分析表明,高温化学非平衡效应可使激波层变薄,激波层内温度大幅下降,从而会严重影响气动热环境特性,是影响高超声速飞行器热防护设计的重要因素.     

侧壁激波诱导下凹腔燃烧室冷态流场实验观测

在单凹腔燃烧室中引入侧壁激波,为研究燃烧室内部流动特性,采用纳米粒子平面激光散射技术和粒子图像测速技术对全尺寸玻璃燃烧室模型进行流场观测,获得了冷态流场展向和法向的瞬态灰度图及平均速度场。实验结果表明:在远壁面区域,凹腔内部速度与密度都较低;引入侧壁激波后,近壁面区域凹腔与主流的质量与动量交换增强,速度与密度升高;受到侧壁激波影响,燃烧室底壁边界层不再均匀,凹腔中后部产生大规模低速区,具有明显三维特性。

脊状表面近壁区湍流度分布规律

通过对不同风速下,不同形状、尺寸脊状表面及光滑平板表面边界层内湍流度的测试,对比分析了脊状表面近壁区湍流度的分布规律。试验在小型直流风洞中开展,流场测试中使用恒温式IFA 300智能型流动分析仪,测试模型则采用有机玻璃及铝两种材质的平板模型。在脊状表面理论零点及壁面摩擦速度的计算中,采用了基于紊流边界层对数律区流速分布公式同时计算壁面理论零点和壁面摩擦速度的改进方法。最终测试结果表明:脊状表面边界层过渡区和对数律区内湍流度与平板相比显著下降,最大降幅超过10%,证明脊状结构的存在有效减弱了壁面近壁区内"猝发现象"的发生。     

Helping hands: civil–military cooperation and Italy's military operation abroad

In the Post-Bipolar Era the growing complexity of the military operations requires a new approach for the resolution of international crises. Since the end of the Cold War, peace support operations (PSO) have become the mainstay and principal occupation of most Western armies. At the same time, Italy has been one of the most important actors in such an area. The article focuses on the cooperation between military and civil components (a process called CIMIC) as a key variable in the Italian PSOs. We will analyse in detail the main lessons learned from past military interventions as well as the general context in which new tendencies are taking place. The maintaining of a minimum security frame becomes essential to fulfil activities ‘collateral’ to the mission: reconstructing services and infrastructure, food distribution, water and medication, law and order, de-mining, training of local forces, and supporting local institutions. These are the main tasks to obtain thrust and support from the population.     

Terrorism,insurgency, kidnapping,and security in Africa's energy sector

Energy continues to serve as the bedrock of modern economies and the main driver of modern society. For Africa, the production and supply of energy resources such as crude oil, natural gas, uranium, coal, biomass, biofuels and other renewables are an important source of employment, rents, taxes, royalties and profits. This sector brings in several tens of billions of dollars of revenue annually. The production and delivery of such resources, however, depend on critical infrastructures such as pipelines, refineries, processing plants, terminals, rigs, electrical energy pylons, substations, pump stations, vessels, and tankers. These infrastructures have been attacked by terrorists, insurgents, vandals and saboteurs, all of whom see them as targets against which to register their grievances and extract concessions from the state. This paper is a chronological account of some of the documented incidents of terrorism, insurgency, kidnapping, destruction, sabotage, and human casualties suffered in the oil and gas sectors in Africa between 1999 and 2012. It is based on data extracted from the databases of the RAND Database of World Terrorism Incidents and the University of Maryland's Global Terrorism Database (GTD).     

A1 Qaeda and the radical Islamic challenge to western strategy

The September 11 global crisis prompted by the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon raises major questions concerning the nature and trajectory of terrorism in the post-Cold War global order. Hitherto, terrorism has been largely debated by analysts at the level of nation states. Terrorist and insurgent movements have also been largely anchored in nationalist and ethnic power bases even when they have sought to mobilise a transnational ideological appeal on religious or class grounds. There have been a few exceptions to this pattern such as the alliance between the German Baader-Meinhof group and the Japanese Red Army Faction, but even such international alliances as this did not, until at least the 1980s, presage anything like a global terrorist network necessitating a global strategic response. This study examines terrorism and global strategic responses.     

Tacit support for terrorism: The rapprochement between the USSR and Palestinian guerrilla organizations following the 1967 war

This article demonstrates the inconsistent and wavering Soviet attitude towards national liberation movements in general and the Palestinian organizations in particular. Until the late 1960s, the Soviets viewed these organizations with suspicion, hesitating to engage in political dialogue with them. However, in the 1970s, political and military events in the region, as well as modifications in the Kremlin's Cold War strategies, led to a general shift towards the Middle East in Soviet foreign policy. Soviet leaders showed increased willingness to provide certain Palestinian organizations with arms with which to conduct terrorist activities against Israeli, pro-Israeli, Jewish and Western targets. The article explores the complex relations between Palestinian organizations and the USSR in the field of international terror. The study also exposes and analyzes the nature and content of Soviet–Palestinian arms dialogues and transactions. It provides clear evidence that Soviet policymakers and other luminaries were fully informed of, and sometimes directly involved in, these transactions and dialogues at the highest levels.     

Helping hands: external support for the KNU insurgency in Burma

This article analyses to what extent the Burmese KNU insurgency made use of external support from states, refugees, and diasporas. Based on extensive fieldwork it is concluded that support from neighbouring states and refugees has for years kept the Karen rebellion alive. Western countries perceived forms of resistance to the illegitimate Burmese regime as just and have therefore played a crucial role in the continuation of conflict in Karen State. It is important that policymakers and donors as well as executing organizations continue to reflect critically on the way they exercise their work.

Cyber sheiks and grassroots jihadis: the war in Syria and the devolution of the Bosnian Salafi communities

ABSTRACT

What was the scope of the Bosnian jihadi participation in the war in Syria? Did the Bosnian volunteers tend to join one particular faction? Why did the Bosnian youngsters decide to join the holy war in the Levant? Was this an organized and hierarchical process or was this a grassroots movement? Last, were all the Salafis in Bosnia supportive of this dynamic or did this process cause internal frictions? These are some of the questions that this research will try to answer.     

Country survey XVI the defence sector in the economy of a declining superpower: Soviet Union and Russia, 1965-2001

The Soviet Union was able to develop a large military-industrial complex and become the world's second superpower despite deficiencies in its centrally planned economy because defence was given high priority status and special planning, rationing and administrative mechanisms were used to attain national security objectives. However, in the period 1976-85 the effectiveness of priority protection diminished and defence institutions experienced more of the problems typical of the shortage economic system. The heavy defence burden also created growing difficulties for the civilian economy. The attempts by the Gorbachev government to reform the defence sector and improve defence-economic relationships during perestroika (1985-91) uniformly failed. For most of the transition period, the Russian military-industrial complex has been adversely affected by its low priority status, cuts in defence spending, instability of the hybrid politico-economic system, and negative growth of the economy. The armed forces and defence industry have been reduced in size and their outputs of military services and equipment have fallen to low levels. Nevertheless, the Russian armed forces still have over one million troops, significant stocks of sophisticated conventional weapons, and a large nuclear arsenal. The government of President Putin has raised the priority of the defence sector, increased real defence spending, and adopted ambitious plans to revive Russian military power. It is likely, though, that tight resource constraints will hamper efforts to reform the armed forces and to upgrade weapons. By 2010 Russia will be an important, but not dominant, military power in Eurasia.     

Traffickers,terrorists, and a ‘new security challenge’: Russian counternarcotics strategy and the Federal Service for the Control of the Drugs Trade

The collapse of the Soviet Union precipitated the massive expansion of drug use and trade in Russia. The country now has one of the largest populations of injecting drug users in the world and has become the largest single-country market for Afghan heroin. In 2003 the Federal Service for the Control of the Drugs Trade was created to coordinate a comprehensive counternarcotics strategy appropriate to the scale of this threat. The service continues to face a number of challenges in its early stages of development. However, it has made considerable advances in improving responses to large-scale organised crime and in building international cooperation.
