Individual preferences and the demand for military expenditure*

Whose preferences determine the tradeoff between security and civilian output in deciding upon budget allocations to defence? This paper considers the role that consumer preferences might play in influencing military spending. We propose normative criteria to judge the economic or political efficiency of defence provision at a given time, and test them using Australian survey‐based micro‐data. Our results suggest that the political system has not delivered a simple social‐choice translation of individual preferences into collective outcomes, nor has it delivered results consistent with simple majority‐voting median preferences.     

THE SUPPLY PRICE OF COMMITMENT: EVIDENCE FROM THE AIR FORCE ENLISTMENT BONUS PROGRAM

In fiscal year 1999, the US Air Force introduced a bonus program designed to encourage longer enlistment terms. This regime shift provides a unique opportunity to estimate the elasticity of labor supply at a new margin: the length of the employment contract. A $5000 bonus differential is estimated to increase the probability that a recruit will choose a 6‐year enlistment over a 4‐year enlistment by 30 percentage points. The program is found to be cost‐effective relative to other policies to increase man‐years.     

特种车辆乘载员生理监测与调节系统

特种车辆乘栽员的生理心理状态与车辆技术状态并列成为影响车辆整体效能的重要因素。针对乘栽员的生理心理状态进行监测并适时干预,可以实时掌握并调整人员状态。既有利于车辆能力发挥,也有利于整体协调。生理监测调节系统拟采用生物传感技术,采集人员生理心理指标参数,通过车辆通信及指控系统网络,使指挥人员能够及时掌握人员的疲劳及生命体征状态．通过合理的心理干预及医疗指导。使人员保持良好的心理生理状态或合理的医疗自救互救,最大程度地保存行动能力。该系统可应用于平时训练及评估．也可应用于行动决策指挥及医疗救护部署。     

地空导弹对地面的附带损伤问题研究

研究了地空导弹爆炸时战斗部破片对地面人员附带损伤的问题,选取了破片对人体的杀伤准则,通过分析破片的空中运动特性,对导弹战斗部爆炸时的破片飞散规律进行了探讨,建立了破片散布的数学模型,并在典型的给定计算条件下进行了仿真分析.仿真结果表明,地空导弹在不同高度爆炸时,可计算出对地面人员的有效杀伤破片数量、破片杀伤面积和平均密度以及导弹的安全高度.     

企业会计政策选择的起因及其定位思考

目前 ,在以会计准则为企业会计政策规范主体的模式下 ,企业对会计政策有较大的选择空间 ,不同的会计政策选择 ,产生企业不同结果的会计信息 ,对企业利害关系集团产生不同的利益分配结果和社会资源配置效率。本文通过分析企业会计政策选择的起因 ,探讨了会计政策选择的正确定位 ,对于企业正确选择会计政策、维护资本市场的健康运行具有一定的借鉴意义

A method to determine the shell layout scheme for equipment battlefield damage tests under artillery fire

In this paper,a new method for determining the shell layout scheme is proposed,which can make the equipment damage data by the battlefield damage test resemble as close as possible the actual combat data.This method is based on the analysis of the impact point distribution and effective damage area of equipment.In order to obtain the position of the impact points,an impact point distribution model under artillery fire was established.Similarly,in order to obtain the effective damage area of equipment,the concepts of generalized damage area and task-based equipment functional damage probability were demonstrated,and the corresponding calculation model was established.Through case analysis,the shell layout scheme was effectively obtained,verifying the correctness of the proposed method.
