基于非均匀调制函数模型的非平稳地震动模拟

通过对地震动演变谱模型化分析,在精确估计地震动时变功率谱的基础上,利用多元函数目标优化方法识别地震动的非均匀调制函数模型参数,从而建立了基于非均匀调制函数模型的时频非平稳地震动模拟方法。对给定初始地震波和直接给定模型参数2个算例的分析表明,应用本文方法模拟的地震波可以较好实现时频非平稳,而且对目标反应谱也具有较好的拟合精度。     

基于自适应二阶终端滑模的航天器有限时间姿态机动算法

针对航天器有限时间姿态机动问题,提出一种自适应二阶终端滑模控制算法。设计一种终端滑模面,保证系统状态能够在有限时间内沿滑模面收敛到系统原点;为克服系统抖振,设计了二阶终端滑模控制器,并采用参数自适应估计项补偿系统中的外部干扰力矩。基于Lyapunov函数法证明了二阶自适应终端滑模控制器能够保证闭环系统实际有限时间稳定。仿真结果表明,提出的姿态机动算法响应速度快、精度高,能够有效实现对系统抖振和外部干扰的抑制,具有重要的科学意义和工程应用价值。     

THE DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO

The armed conflict in the DRC has been characterised by appalling, widespread and systematic human rights violations. It varies from civil war to a war between national armies. Much of the conflict falls between these two categories due to the involvement of foreign troops in civil strife, as well as foreign rebel groups fighting their home government's troops but on Congolese soil. The most pressing need is to cease hostilities and address the humanitarian situation in the country. Questions of justice and accountability, and issues relating to the rule of law will have to be addressed soon in order to achieve a durable peace in the country and in the region. Since there are links between different conflicts in the region, a broader solution should preferably be found. However, this would further complicate an already difficult proposition. Efforts limited to the DRC would be more feasible and could lead to similar measures in other conflict ridden countries in the region. This essay therefore discusses the available processes for justice.     

US Advanced Conventional Systems and Conventional Prompt Global Strike Ambitions:

ABSTRACT

The dangers and risks of employing a Conventional Prompt Global Strike (CPGS) capability greatly exceed the benefits. More suitable, if less prompt, alternatives exist to deal with fleeting targets. Even a niche CPGS capability—consisting of approximately twenty systems—carries risks, to say nothing of proposals to develop hundreds or more. Most dangerously, CPGS could stir the pre-emption pot, particularly vis-à-vis states that correctly perceive to be within the gunsights of US CPGS weapons; other states, too, may feel emboldened to emulate this US precedent and undertake their own form of prompt, long-range strike capability. Compressed circumstances surrounding such a scenario could foster unwanted erratic behavior, including the misperception that the threatening missile carries a nuclear weapon. But the true Achilles's heel of the CPGS concept is the unprecedented demands it places on the intelligence community to provide decision makers with “exquisite” intelligence within an hour timeframe. Such compressed conditions leave decision makers with virtually no time to appraise the direct—and potentially unintended—consequences of their actions.     

Private security contractors and international humanitarian law—a skirmish for recognition in international armed conflicts

In recent international armed conflicts private security contractors (PSCs) have played an ever increasing role and military advisors and tribunals are facing the dilemma of assessing the primary and secondary status of PSCs under international humanitarian law. In this article the misconception that PSCs are necessarily mercenaries will be dispelled. The possibility that PSCs might be categorised as combatants or civilians will then be explored. The conclusion is that where they are incorporated into the armed forces of a state, PSCs might attain combatant status. However, given that states are reluctant to formally incorporate PSCs into their armed forces, they will most likely remain essentially civilian. Their degree of participation in hostilities will determine whether they retain their immunity under international humanitarian law from attack and prosecution (as civilians) or whether they are rendered unlawful belligerents.

针对遵从放大转发协议的双向中继网络的联合信道估计问题,提出了一种基于Kalman滤波器的新方法。首先根据联合信道构成特点将其划分为自干扰部分及传输部分,通过AR模型对这两部分自相关函数进行近似化处理,建立了联合信道时变过程的状态方程,结合接收的训练序列信号,给出了具有Kalman滤波器形式的估计方法。随后在证明了该方法的一致收敛性质的同时,列出了误差性能限所满足的Riccati方程表达式。仿真结果表明,新估计方法相比于最大似然方法在均方误差方面具有明显的性能优势。     

捷联导引头视线转率估计的交互式多模型样条滤波算法

针对捷联导引头测量信息的弹目惯性视线转率估计,提出了一种基于交互式多模型算法的样条滤波方法(IMM-SF)。基于体视线和惯性视线的映射关系解算惯性视线角,将其作为虚拟观测量进行滤波,设置多个过程噪声模型,每个模型分别采用样条滤波器进行滤波,IMM-SF滤波器的估值结果为各滤波器估值的加权综合。该方法不必对目标的未知机动建模,应用更加方便,并且可在交互式多模型算法的框架下自适应地调整滤波器的噪声。Monte-Carlo仿真结果表明该方法可有效估计视线转率,并可提高估值精度。
