Irreducibility of joint inventory positions in an assemble‐to‐order system under (r,nQ) policies

In a typical assemble‐to‐order system, a customer order may request multiple items, and the order may not be filled if any of the requested items are out of stock. A key customer service measure when unfilled orders are backordered is the order‐based backorder level. To evaluate this crucial performance measure, a fundamental question is whether the stationary joint inventory positions follow an independent and uniform distribution. In this context, this is equivalent to the irreducibility of the Markov chain formed by the joint inventory positions. This article presents a necessary and sufficient condition for the irreducibility of such a Markov chain through a set of simultaneous Diophantine equations. This result also leads to sufficient conditions that are more general than those in the published reports. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Naval Research Logistics, 2011     

Lanchester for cyber: The mixed epidemic‐combat model

Future conflict between armed forces will occur both in the physical domain as well as the information domain. The linkage of these domains is not yet fully understood. We study the dynamics of a force subject to kinetic effects as well as a specific network effect–spreading malware. In the course of our study, we unify two well‐studied models: the Lanchester model of armed conflict and deterministic models of epidemiology. We develop basic results, including a rule for determining when explicit modeling of network propagation is required. We then generalize the model to a force subdivided by both physical and network topology, and demonstrate the specific case where the force is divided between front‐ and rear‐echelons. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

线性方程组迭代解法的另类矩阵形式

改进了线性方程组迭代解法的矩阵形式．以最简单的Jacobi迭代法的迭代矩阵为基础,只需经过简单的加减和数乘运算就可得到Seidel和SOR的迭代过程,使得算法新形式的求解过程数学意义非常明确,表达形式也非常简洁,这样不仅便于理解记忆,还非常有利于编程实现。改进后的矩阵迭代形式求解计算量为:Seidel需要大约n2次乘除法．SOR约为2n2次乘除法,且改进后的Seidel迭代法和SOR方法存储空间也较传统形式为少。     

空间双体系绳系统展开阶段末端星姿态动力学分析

为了研究空间系绳系统展开过程中末端星的姿态运动,采用第二类拉格朗日方程建立系统展开及末端星角运动的数学模型,分析展开阶段末端星的姿态动力学特性。建模时将系绳末端连接的母星与子星视为尺寸不可忽略的刚体,且母星质量远大于子星质量,系绳视为有质量的刚性杆。利用该数学模型可以分析系绳系统的展开过程,研究影响末端星姿态运动的主要因素,包括姿态角初始扰动以及末端星动/静不对称性。仿真结果表明,系绳展开时末端星姿态角初始扰动及动静不对称性可能会导致姿态角失稳,出现系绳缠绕星体的情况。仿真结果可以为展开阶段末端星姿态控制提供参考。
