加肋轴对称薄壳强度分析的有限元方法

加肋轴对称薄壳的强度问题,需要考虑肋骨的作用。针对该问题,采用轴对称曲边壳单元建立了肋骨单元的刚度矩阵,将该矩阵叠加到轴对称曲边壳单元的刚度矩阵中,对加肋轴对称薄壳的强度进行有限元分析。应用Fortran语言编写了有限元计算程序,对一个精车模型进行了强度计算,计算结果同模型试验结果吻合良好,表明该方法可以应用于加肋轴对称薄壳的强度分析。     

一种舰船目标一维距离像识别的新方法

提出了一种基于傅里叶-梅林变换和二叉树支持向量机相结合的舰船目标一维距离像识别方法。该方法充分利用了傅里叶-梅林变换具有的时移与尺度不变性和支持向量机在小样本分类中的优势,可以改善目标的特征稳定性,提高识别性能。针对多类舰船目标的识别,提出采用聚类分析中的均值距离来生成二叉树,将分类器分布在各个节点上,构成了多类支持向量机,减少了分类器数量和重复训练样本的数量。对4类舰船目标仿真实验的结果表明,该分类方法具有较高的识别性能、较快的识别速度。

Challenging the Hegemon: Al Qaeda's Elevation of Asymmetric Insurgent Warfare Onto the Global Arena

This chapter examines how Al Qaeda, an asymmetric power, was able to become a global challenger to the existing international structure. Neither regional insurgency theories nor grand-scale global theories alone are adequate to explain Al Qaeda's ability. Rather, a modification of the seven dimensions of the Manwaring paradigm for successful insurgency combined with key concepts of global revolutionary or imperial powers formerly applied to states gives insight to this fundamental question. Al Qaeda's asymmetric global challenge is unique, and understanding the nature of the threat is key to finally defeating it.     

Militarism in post-war Cyprus: the development of the ideology of defence

This article provides a theorisation of militarism in post-war Cyprus. Based on qualitative empirical research conducted in Cyprus in 2011, the article explores the manifestation and steadfastness of Greek-Cypriot militarism, and the development of this militarism, which appeared after the partition of the island in 1974. In particular, it proposes the ideology of defence as a way to understand post-war Greek-Cypriot militarism. It shows the embedded nature of defence in the idea of the national struggle. It aims at mapping the character of this militarism in order to provide the grounds for future discussion. Only by understanding the interconnecting discourses that made Greek-Cypriot militarism possible in post-war Cyprus, can we understand its past, present, and future.     

风扇蜗壳排气段结构优化研究

为有效降低车辆封闭式冷却风道中风扇蜗壳的空气流动阻力,提出了计算流体力学分析与遗传算法相结合的蜗壳排气段结构优化方法,建立了蜗壳结构优化模型,开发了优化算法可执行程序Control CFD.EXE。对某车辆的风扇蜗壳排气段进行了结构优化。优化后蜗壳排气段的空气流动阻力比优化前减小了10.1%,空气质量流量增大了1.70%。     

Optimal search for a moving target with the option to wait

We investigate the problem in which an agent has to find an object that moves between two locations according to a discrete Markov process (Pollock, Operat Res 18 (1970) 883–903). At every period, the agent has three options: searching left, searching right, and waiting. We assume that waiting is costless whereas searching is costly. Moreover, when the agent searches the location that contains the object, he finds it with probability 1 (i.e. there is no overlooking). Waiting can be useful because it could induce a more favorable probability distribution over the two locations next period. We find an essentially unique (nearly) optimal strategy, and prove that it is characterized by two thresholds (as conjectured by Weber, J Appl Probab 23 (1986) 708–717). We show, moreover, that it can never be optimal to search the location with the lower probability of containing the object. The latter result is far from obvious and is in clear contrast with the example in Ross (1983) for the model without waiting. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Naval Research Logistics 2009
