The Armoury Gauging System and Interchangeable Manufacture

Abstract

Scientifically analysing important artefacts from the site of historic battles is vital if the best information is to be retrieved from the field. A detailed knowledge of the specific equipment that was available to the combatants from a known battle is also required at a high level so that artefacts and fragments resulting from an historic battlefield archaeological survey can be recognised when found. Access to specialists from all walks of life is required throughout each battlefield-related project, from the fieldwork stages to the dissemination of information. The following paper discusses the importance of working alongside museums and specialists and gives examples of how the Towton Battlefield Archaeology Project has successfully worked with the staff at the Royal Armouries Leeds.     

GPS接收信号中线性扫频干扰的抑制

研究了阵列接收的GPS接收信号中线性扫频(LFM)干扰的抑制问题。LFM信号瞬时频率的估计是抑制干扰的关键,而要准确估计信号瞬时频率,必须抑制接收信号时频分布中交叉项干扰。本文对接收信号矢量进行白化,得到信号矢量白化后的空时频分布(STFD)矩阵。文中推出一个与传统方法获得的判决变量不同的判决变量,用该判决变量可以更加清晰地选出LFM信号在时频分布中的自项。根据时频脊点的分布估计LFM信号频率参数以及信号瞬时频率,之后即可根据瞬时频率构建陷波器滤除干扰。仿真表明该方法能够将受交叉项严重干扰的接收信号时频分布映射为清晰的接收信号自项的时频分布,在数据快拍数满足一定要求时可以很好地抑制掉LFM干扰。     

结合流形滤波的矩阵信息几何检测器

针对小样本、非均匀杂波下的信号检测问题,提出一种基于流形滤波的矩阵信息几何检测器,将信号检测问题转化为矩阵流形上的几何问题。将每一个样本的相关性数据建模为一个托普利兹正定矩阵,在此基础上,利用每一个样本数据的邻近矩阵进行加权平滑滤波,去除一部分杂波能量,提升目标与杂波间的区分性。计算了辅助样本数据对应矩阵的几何均值,通过比较待检测样本数据矩阵与几何均值矩阵之间的距离与检测门限的大小,以实现信号检测。实验结果表明,与自适应匹配滤波相比,本文方法在小样本、非均匀杂波下具有明显的性能优势。

钢丝增强复合条带抗弹性能数值分析

为研究钢丝增强聚合物基复合条带的抗弹性能,基于冲击动力学理论分析其抗弹机理,再借助ANSYS/LS-DYNA软件和LS-PrePost前后处理器模拟有无增强钢丝2种工况下,条带对7.62 mm弹体的冲击响应。分析表明：条带的弹性模量、剪切模量和面密度会影响其能量吸收性能,能量吸收量随三者的增大而增大;由于聚合物基体的正交各向异性,应力云图显示出扁平椭圆状是合理的;在聚合物基复合条带中嵌入增强钢丝对条带整体的抗弹性能有积极的影响,但嵌入过量的钢丝会导致重量和成本的增加,因此需要对合理的钢丝配比率作进一步研究。研究结果可为钢丝增强聚合物基复合条带在野战防护结构中的应用提供参考。

Effect of nano powder (Al2O3-CaO) addition on the mechanical properties of the polymer blend matrix composite

This work describes the preparation and study of the properties of composite nanoparticles prepared by the sol-gel method which consists of two materials (Al₂O₃-CaO), and study the effect of these nanoparticles on the mechanical behavior of a polymer blend (EP 4% + 96% UPE). The powder was evaluated by X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy analysis (SEM), particle size analysis, and energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX). The mechanical behavior of the composite material was assessed by tensile test, bending test and hardness test. The evaluation results of the composite nanoparticles showed good distribution of the chemical composition between aluminum oxide and calcium oxide, smoothness in particles' size at calcination in high and low temperatures, formation of different shapes of nanoparticles and different (kappa and gamma) phases of the Al₂O₃ particles. The results of mechanical behavior tests showed marked improvement in the mechanical properties of the resulted composite material, especially at 1.5%, compared with polymer blend material without nano powder addition. The tensile properties improved about (24 and 14.9) % and bending resistance about (23.5 and 16.8) % and hardness by (25 and 22) % when adding particles of size (63.8 and 68.6) respectively. Therefore, this reflects the efficiency of the proposed method to manufacture the nanocomposite powder and the possibility of using this powder as a strengthening material for the composite materials and using these composite materials in bio applications, especially in the fabrication of artificial limbs.     

Fabrication of AA7005/TiB2-B4C surface composite by friction stir processing: Evaluation of ballistic behaviour

The present work aims to enhance the ballistic resistance of AA7005 alloy by incorporating the TiB₂ and B₄C ceramic reinforcement particles. Surface composites with different weight fractions of TiB₂ and B₄C particles were processed by friction stir processing. Micro-hardness and depth of penetration tests were carried out to evaluate the ballistic properties of the surface composites. The surface hardness of the composite was found to be nearly 70 HV higher than base alloy. The depth of penetration of the steel projectile was 20–26 mm in the composites as compared to 37 mm in the base alloy. Ballistic mass efficiency factor of the surface composite was found to be 1.6 times higher than base alloy. This is mainly attributed to the dispersion strengthening from the reinforcement particles.
