The U.S. Congress, charged with overseeing U.S. nuclear weapons policy and programs, usually addresses such policies and programs through the annual authorization and appropriations process, focusing mostly on questions of how many and what types of weapons the United States should deploy, with little attention paid to questions about nuclear weapons strategy, doctrine, and policy. The oversight process has brought about some significant changes in the plans for U.S. nuclear weapons, including the elimination of funding for the Robust Nuclear Earth Penetrator study and the shift of that funding into a study of the Reliable Replacement Warhead. But with the focus on authorizations and appropriations, along with the divided jurisdiction over nuclear weapons policy and programs in congressional committees, Congress has not, either recently or during the Cold War and post–Cold War eras, conducted a more comprehensive review of U.S. nuclear weapons strategy, policy, or force structure. Changes in committee jurisdictions could affect the oversight process, but as long as nuclear weapons policy and programs remain a relatively low priority for most members of Congress, and the country at large, it is unlikely that Congress will pursue such a comprehensive debate.     

ACHIEVING NUCLEAR BALANCE

One of the most important questions affecting U.S. national security is the future size of the U.S. nuclear stockpile. While there is clear consensus within the U.S. government on the need to reduce the size of the arsenal, there is none on the best path to achieve these cuts; on the type of deterrent necessary to deal with future threats; or on the size of the production complex needed to support that arsenal. Creating a strategic commission to review these questions, as contemplated in the Fiscal 2008 House Defense Authorization bill, is a necessary first step to establish a sensible nuclear policy. The Reliable Replacement Warhead, which has the potential to transform the complex while preserving the current moratorium on nuclear testing, is a program worth exploring further if it stays within congressionally mandated bounds. As Congress considers both programmatic and policy matters related to U.S. nuclear weapons, it is vital that we also renew and strengthen U.S. leadership on nuclear nonproliferation.

舰船推进系统液力偶合器滑差变化规律分析

研究了将液力偶合器滑差特性用于舰船推进系统稳态特性分析和机-桨联控曲线设计,由此发现滑差变化规律.分析了两种正常工况和五种应急工况下的"船-桨-机"匹配稳态特性以及用液力偶合器滑差所做的主机负载判别.有关滑差的主要研究结果有:按螺旋桨特性工作时,液力偶合器滑差的大小既取决于船体阻力特性(它决定了螺旋桨负载特性),又受液力偶合器自身的"效率-转速"相关性(运转特性)的影响.

论大学之使命——读布鲁贝克《高等教育哲学》有感

大学使命是人们对大学组织必须承担的责任的一种认定,亦是人们对大学组织应有价值的一种判断和要求,布鲁贝克在其经典著作《高等教育哲学》中从“以认识论为基础”和“以政治论为基础”的两种哲学论角度讨论大学的使命,实际上两种哲学观各有其合理的逻辑,从当前高等教育在社会、国家中所处的地位看,在认识论基础上更应强调政治论的高等教育哲学,大学应始终不忘其为对国家负责的使命。

The industrial structure of National Defence and transaction costs

A recent paper in Defence Economics suggests that “a single variable, the public opinion balance, ... when accompanied by a control variable measuring the proportion of responses in the ‘residuum’ (no opinion or keep the status quo), permits an accurate prediction of subsequent changes in the rate of change of U.S. defense outlays from the mid‐1960s through the 1980s” (Higgs and Kilduff, 1993, p. 227). In contrast, this comment provides evidence that since 1986 the Higgs‐Kilduff model frequently mispredicts the direction of U.S. defense spending. In addition, the average prediction error, and its variance, since 1986 consistently exceeds the average prediction error, and its variance, for the years prior to 1986.
