基于时频原子分解的地雷目标特征提取及分类

利用车载超宽带地表穿透雷达进行大区域地雷探测在军事领域上有重要的应用价值,能否提取稳定一致的地雷特征是其实用化的关键.提出一种基于时频原子分解的地雷目标特征提取和分类方法,该方法以地雷目标的四维散射函数为基础获取二维时频图像,在对时频图像详细分析的基础上,通过时频原子对地雷目标一维距离向剖面进行分解,得到能够完整描述地雷时频域特征的多个原子,将这些原子作为特征向量送入分层分类器.通过实测数据验证,该方法适用于车载超宽带地表穿透雷达探测地雷.同传统基于时域或频域的特征提取算法相比,该方法提取的特征更加稳定,能有效改善地雷探测性能.     

抗日军政大学华中分校对青年马克思主义者的思想政治教育

抗战时期,新四军创办的抗日军政大学华中分校吸引了大批青年,通过马克思主义理论的学习和实践教学来开展思想政治教育工作。学校采取了灵活多样的思想政治教育形式,培养了大批军政干部,使青年学生提高了马克思主义理论水平,培养了艰苦朴素的作风,坚定了革命意志。其教学方法对当今的思想政治工作仍然具有现实的借鉴意义。     

An historical review of US defense strategy from Vietnam to operation Iraqi freedom

Facing nearly half a billion dollars in spending cuts over the next five years, US defense planners and strategists must simultaneously rebuild a war-weary Army weakened from over a decade of war, build new sea and air capabilities for the Pacific theater, and reduce manpower, procurement, and contractor budgets while promoting innovation. The US defense department is embarking on what may be the most sweeping period of defense transformation in recent memory. This article reviews the history of American defense transformation, focusing on an important but largely overlooked period of military innovation that began in the shadow of Vietnam and ended with troops fighting through blinding sandstorms at night on the road to Baghdad. The multifaceted transformation strategy conceived in the 1970s paved the way for a military revolution in the 1990s and enabled unprecedented battlefield adaptation in the 2000s. After reviewing the revolutionary changes that led to American dominance in conventional warfare in the 1990s, the article examines US transformation policies in the 2000s to inform defense strategy and planning efforts in the 2010s.     

Dynamic impact protective body armour: A comprehensive appraisal on panel engineering design and its prospective materials

Personal body armour is one of the most important pieces of equipment to protect human beings from various critical and fatal injuries. In today’s modern world, various organizations including law enforcement and security service have made it mandatory for their personnel to wear personal protection system while on field duty. However, the systems should comprise an improved ballistic performance, light-weighted, flexible as well as comfortable panel not only to be accepted with a wider range but also for effective performances of the consumer. Generally, the overall performances of the protective body armour could be affected by various parameters including armour design techniques, type of materials used and finishing of the panels. The current paper aims to critically review state-of-art for armour panel design techniques and the different perspective body armour materials. The paper starts by discussing the different body armour and its category. Later, the different states of technology for armour panel design (mostly for women), its problems and the possible solutions will be cited. Later, the commonly used different polymeric fibrous and the future possible advanced materials including carbon nanotube (CNT), Graphene CNT and shear thickening fluids (STFs) treated materials for developing the reinforced body armour panel will be discussed. The authors believe that this paper will enlighten useful guidelines and procedures about the different panel design techniques and current and promising future materials for researchers, designers, engineers and manufacturers working on the impact resistance body armour field.

基于智慧校园建设推进军队院校教育现代化路径探究

教育信息化是教育现代化的基本内涵和显著特征。当前,我国正处于由基本实现教育现代化迈向整体实现教育现代化的重要战略期,国家教育从理论和实践层面进行了大量探索。在军队院校教育领域,教育技术应用、训练管理领域网络建设、数字校园建设等均为军队院校教育现代化奠定了创新发展基础,智能教育应用模式的改革探索也为军队院校教育现代化描绘了未来建设愿景。本文认为,推进军队院校教育现代化应发挥智慧校园建设平台的基础作用,充分融入国家教育体系,注重以先进教育理念驱动创新发展、以前沿信息技术提供解决方案、以总体架构设计规范目标功能、以智慧育人环境承载应用服务、以数据资源体系孕育智慧生态,走开军委军种院校三级联动推动创新发展的路子。     

Guns and butter? Military expenditure and health spending on the eve of the Arab Spring

We examine the validity of the guns-versus-butter hypothesis in the pre-Arab Spring era. Using panel data from 1995 to 2011 – the eve of the Arab uprisings – we find no evidence that increased security needs as measured by the number of domestic terrorist attacks are complemented by increased military spending or more importantly ‘crowd out’ government expenditure on key public goods such as health care. This suggests that both expenditure decisions were determined by other considerations at the government level.
