The US NATO and military burden sharing: post-Cold War accomplishments and future prospects

NATO burden sharing has become an especially timely issue in the past several years as a result of a number of factors, including Russian annexation of Crimea and destabilization of eastern Ukraine in 2014. This article argues that alliance unity among the great democracies of Europe and North America is indispensable to peace and stability on the Eurasian continent. A fractured NATO, and especially, a large divide in purposes or commitments as between the United States and its European security partners, invites aggression and the possibility of inadvertent escalation. Past successes and failures in US-involved multinational peace and stability operations, within and outside of Europe, show that mission accomplishment requires give and take, including the occasional acceptance of unequal costs and benefits among the members, in order to achieve peace and security objectives.

Cost allocation and communication

This article considers a special class of cost allocation problems, where the communication possibilities among the agents are restricted. Integral formulas are derived for two allocation rules: The Myerson value and the position value. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

基于应急运行的核动力装置一回路小破口失水事故

针对船用核动力装置运行的特殊性,指出基于应急运行的事故研究对有效地维持机动性有重要意义.选用不可隔离的小破口失水事故进行分析计算,重点研究破口大小和不同处置对反应堆运行时间的影响.结果表明,若破口尺寸在某一范围内时,可以保证反应堆在一定时间内实现应急运行,并且在一定条件下通过降功率可以延长运行时间.     

Modeling the performance of a scanning radio communications sensor

A model which allows the prediction of long-term average report rates against an array of radio emitters by a scanning sensor is presented. The model is based on Markov renewal theory.     

The poverty of power in military power: how collective power could benefit strategic studies

Strategic studies deals intimately with the topic of power. Most scholars in the discipline work with a concept of power as an adversarial zero-sum competition. This is natural and necessary. However, other conceptions of power developed within political science and sociology could enrich strategic studies. Approaching two typical, traditional tasks of strategy – alliance building and war-fighting – this article demonstrates the heuristic mileage of theories of collective power. In particular, we can shed new light on the post-Cold War transformation of NATO as well as state-building as a strategy in counter-insurgencies with new ideas of power. Broadening the palette of theories of power is thus valuable if strategic studies is to prosper as an independent field of study.
