Dynamic institutionalization: the foundations of Japan’s radioactive problem

Many have suggested that the true purpose behind Japan’s development of a closed nuclear-fuel cycle is to maintain the technical potential to develop nuclear weapons. However, closer examination of the development of Japan’s nuclear industry shows that, although Japan possesses advanced nuclear technologies, there has been no deliberate strategy to create a nuclear-weapon option. There is no “nuclear hedge.” To illustrate this point, this article presents a framework called “dynamic institutionalization” to explain the origins of Japan’s nuclear policies and the different sets of institutionalized pressures and constraints that have perpetuated these policies over time. Japan’s continued development of closed fuel-cycle technologies is primarily driven by domestic politics and the lack of a permanent spent-fuel management solution. On the other hand, Japan’s institutionalized nuclear forbearance is driven by the calculation that, as long as US extended deterrence remains credible, Japan’s security is best guaranteed through reliance on the US nuclear umbrella. By analytically untangling the policy of closed fuel-cycle development from the rationale for nuclear forbearance, this article provides a more nuanced view of the relationships between the domestic and international variables shaping Japan’s nuclear policies.

On scheduling a single machine to minimize a piecewise linear objective function: A compact MIP formulation

We study the scheduling situation in which a set of jobs subjected to release dates and deadlines are to be performed on a single machine. The objective is to minimize a piecewise linear objective function ∑_jF_j where F_j(C_j) corresponds to the cost of the completion of job j at time C_j. This class of function is very large and thus interesting both from a theoretical and practical point of view: It can be used to model total (weighted) completion time, total (weighted) tardiness, earliness and tardiness, etc. We introduce a new Mixed Integer Program (MIP) based on time interval decomposition. Our MIP is closely related to the well‐known time‐indexed MIP formulation but uses much less variables and constraints. Experiments on academic benchmarks as well as on real‐life industrial problems show that our generic MIP formulation is efficient. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Naval Research Logistics, 2009

Resilience in peacebuilding: Contesting uncertainty,ambiguity, and complexity

With the failure of liberal peace strategies in the Global South, resilience has recently become the risk management strategy par excellence in peacebuilding. Since it is not possible to predict when the next crisis will take place, peacebuilders must invest in bottom-up adaptive capacities to cope with external shocks. This article moves away from governmentality accounts of resilience which are overtly deterministic and depoliticizing. Instead, it posits that the uncertainty, ambiguity, and complexity associated with resilience mean that we should expect opportunities for contestation and institutional agency. This argument will be illustrated by drawing upon the European Union’s adoption of the resilience approach in its peacebuilding and security policies. The article argues that while uncertainty, ambiguity, and complexity constitute the ontological conditions that underpin the rise of resilience in peacebuilding, they are also likely to lead to its potential demise.

自行火炮扭力轴载荷谱的测量及疲劳寿命预测

为预测自行火炮扭力轴寿命，对某型自行火炮在不同工况下进行实车试验，获得了多工况下扭力轴的载荷谱。受力分析表明，表面最大拉应力是扭力轴的破坏应力；提出基于随机响应面对扭力轴寿命进行预测的方法，将低周疲劳寿命表达式中的随机参数表示为标准随机变量，引人随机响应的Hermite多项展开式进行拟合，建立了扭力轴疲劳寿命的显式函数。通过对实测载荷谱进行统计分析，依据寿命表达式可以预测扭力轴疲劳寿命，并给出概率分布。该方法弥补了传统响应面法以一般多项式拟合时不能保证收敛性的缺陷。     

Shortest path interdiction problem with arc improvement recourse: A multiobjective approach

We consider the shortest path interdiction problem involving two agents, a leader and a follower, playing a Stackelberg game. The leader seeks to maximize the follower's minimum costs by interdicting certain arcs, thus increasing the travel time of those arcs. The follower may improve the network after the interdiction by lowering the costs of some arcs, subject to a cardinality budget restriction on arc improvements. The leader and the follower are both aware of all problem data, with the exception that the leader is unaware of the follower's improvement budget. The effectiveness of an interdiction action is given by the length of a shortest path after arc costs are adjusted by both the interdiction and improvement. We propose a multiobjective optimization model for this problem, with each objective corresponding to a different possible improvement budget value. We provide mathematical optimization techniques to generate a complete set of strategies that are Pareto‐optimal. Additionally, for the special case of series‐parallel graphs, we provide a dynamic‐programming algorithm for generating all Pareto‐optimal solutions.     

BDS/INS紧组合三频动对动模糊度解算方法

针对伪距观测噪声较大导致动对动条件下三频整周模糊度解法(Three Carrier Ambiguity Resolution, TCAR)模糊度解算不可靠的问题,提出了一种BDS/INS紧组合三频动对动整周模糊度解算方法。通过紧组合系统输出的高精度位置坐标,估算出双差几何距离值,并用其分别代替无几何和几何模式下的双差伪距观测值,显著降低了伪距双差观测噪声水平,有效提高了三频整周模糊度解算成功率。仿真实验结果表明,BDS/INS紧组合输出的高精度位置坐标使得伪距观测精度提高了60%以上,在短基线条件下,当伪距观测噪声达到2 m时,无几何模式下的TCAR算法模糊度解算成功率为0.73%,几何模式下的TCAR算法模糊度解算成功率为31.25%,而BDS/INS紧组合的TCAR算法在两种模式下的模糊度解算成功率达到99%以上,并且获得了厘米级的相对定位精度。
