Sexual and gender-based violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo

Commitment by the government of the Democratic Republic of Congo to addressing sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) in the country is reflected in a number of international commitments and national strategies. This article traces the (slow) progress in addressing some of the most important issues relating to SGBV to which the government has committed itself. It argues that unless the underlying gender norms and unequal power relations that form the basis of gender violence, discrimination and inequality in Congolese society are addressed, SGBV will persist.     

风载荷对某发射装置待发射状态的影响

应用冯.卡门功率谱和谐波合成法生成了考虑脉动效应的瞬时风速时程曲线;计算了发射筒各段的等效风压及等效力矩,给出了作用于发射筒迎风面的风压总值及等效力矩;最后将载荷作为输入条件,进行动力学分析,获得了风载荷作用下发射装置的动态响应。通过分析可知:由于发射装置具有刚度强、质量大的特点,风载荷作用下发射装置的速度、加速度响应均较低,因此,风载荷主要影响发射筒的倾斜程度。     

基于复杂排队系统的三值光学计算机服务模型与性能分析

三值光学计算机的运算请求处理过程缺乏合理、系统的性能评价标准与体系。基于M/M/1、M/M/n、M~X/M/1和M/M~B/1构成的复杂排队系统,构建三值光学计算机的四阶段服务模型,同时建立立即调度和结束时调度两种策略和算法。基于不同排队系统讨论运算请求的接收时间、预处理时间、运算时间和发送时间的计算方法,进而得到最终响应时间。通过仿真实验对两种策略的模型进行验证,结果表明,结束时调度策略明显优于立即调度策略。     

潜艇应急上浮六自由度运动及黏性流场数值模拟

为揭示潜艇应急上浮过程中的强非线性运动及水动力作用规律,基于RANS方程及流体体积模型,针对Suboff标模建立了潜艇应急上浮数值预报方法。通过开展不同纵倾攻角及斜航漂角下全附体模型的水动力计算,验证了该计算方法的有效性,确定了其适用范围,进而结合整体动网格技术模拟了潜艇的应急上浮过程,获得了艇体六自由度运动的时历参数及流场细节信息。数值模拟结果表明该方法能够较合理地描述潜艇上浮的运动规律,也证明了该方法在潜艇上浮多自由度运动及水动力性能研究中的潜力和适用性。     

Does defence expenditure have a spillover effect on income inequality? A cross-regional analysis in China

China’s defence expenditure has been growing rapidly along with GDP growth during the past two decades. Meanwhile, the income gap has continued to increase. There are conflicting views regarding whether the defence expenditure is capable of reducing income inequality. Therefore, this paper investigates the existence of any spillover effect of defence expenditure on income inequality, with a special focus on the regional differences among 31 provinces and 7 military regions in China. We extend panel cointegration and the impulse response function by using panel data during the period of 1997–2012. The empirical results show that the defence expenditure has an impact on income inequality, and the effect varies over different regions in China. The defence expenditure has a spillover effect on income inequality in the full sample panel and the southeastern panel. An increase in the defence expenditure does not crowd out social welfare spending due to the high level of economic development and government expenditure. On the contrary, in the northern panel, the effect is opposite because of the unbalanced economic development levels within the panel. Beijing as the capital of China, benefits more from the expansion of defence expenditure thus widening the income gap. In addition, the impulse response analyses further confirm a stronger effect of the defence expenditure on income inequality in the northern and the southeastern panels over a short period.     

论口岸突发事件应急处置措施的扩张性

国家对外开放口岸容易发生各种各样的突发事件。边检机关在处置口岸突发事件时,应急处置措施的作用对象、使用强度、持续时间、法律依据等方面相对于常规状态都发生了明显扩张。论述了口岸突发事件应急处置措施的扩张性,分析口岸突发事件应急处置措施扩张的现实基础,总结口岸突发事件应急处置措施扩张的内容,以利于执法部门正确行使应急处置措施。     

某型运载火箭地震响应分析及减震设计

竖立状态的运载火箭一旦遭遇地震,极易造成箭体倾倒等灾难性后果。为了确保运载火箭在地震中的安全,针对某型运载火箭,采用时程分析法对其进行地震响应分析,得到了火箭的弯矩、位移响应峰值沿箭体纵向的分布规律。分析了火箭关键位置处弯矩响应的频域特性,设计了火箭的减震措施,并分析了火箭与发射台的连接刚度、隔震支座刚度对火箭地震响应的影响规律。结果表明:火箭弯矩响应的最大值发生在靠近火箭尾段的位置,位移响应的最大值发生在火箭头部位置;改变火箭与发射台连接刚度以及在发射台底部加装隔震支座的方式可以有效地减小火箭的地震响应。     

Military Spending and Economic Growth: The Case of Iran

Over the last decade, the Iranian Government budget on military has been higher than the average of the world. The current increasing international sanctions aim to reduce the military capabilities and capacities of the Iranian Government. We analyze the response of the Iranian economy to shocks in its military budget from 1959 to 2007, using impulse response functions and variance decomposition analysis. The Granger causality results show that there is unidirectional causality from the military spending growth rate to the economic growth rate. The response of income growth to increasing shocks in the military budget is positive and statistically significant.

应急辅助定位及精度评估方法研究

在可视导航卫星数少于四颗、无法进行传统导航解算的恶劣环境下,导航接收机可利用外部高程气压计提供的高程或者内部守时模块的钟差等信息进行应急辅助定位。在该应急辅助定位工作模式的误差分析中,传统导航定位误差传递模型无法适用。针对此问题,本文在研究三星结合高程、三星结合钟差、双星结合高程钟差等几种应急辅助定位原理的基础上,给出了新的应急辅助定位误差传递的分析模型,利用仿真算例验证了该模型的正确性。通过对定位精度的分析,说明根据卫星分布特点可以按照本文方法量化得到伪距测量与辅助信息的精度的最优数量级关系,可以用最小代价实现定位精度的提升。该结论可指导接收机外部辅助器件的选择。
