Position and Velocity Time Delay for Suppression Vibrations of a Hybrid Rayleigh-Van der Pol-Duffing Oscillator

In this paper,we used time delay feedback to minimize the vibrations of a hybrid Rayleigh–van der Pol–Duffing oscillator.This system is a one-degree-offreedom containing the cubic and fifth nonlinear terms and an external force.We applied the multiple scales method to get the solution from first approximation.Graphically and numerically,we studied the system before and after adding time delay feedback at the primary resonance case(
ffi!).We used MATLAB program to simulate the efficacy of different parameters and the time delay on the main system.

HIV Positive Men Five Times that of Women

According to the latest statis-tics, China’s HIV positive men and women are in the ratio of 5.2:1. This sharp increase in the number of HIV positive men can be attributed to intravenous drug use and unprotected sex. The survey reveals that youth between the ages of 20 and 29, some of whom are college and technical school students, account for

Data-processing induced GPS-positioning error

Global Positioning System data processing is affected by many non-tectonic factors, including the common-mode errors （CME） in station-position time series. The characteristics and origins of CME are still not clear, due to uneven distribution of global GPS networks and the lack of reliable data of the position time series. In this work, data from 241 continuous GPS stations were reprocessed in a consistent way and the results were compared with those generated at Jet Propulsion Laboratory （JPL）. Improvements of residual positions were obtained for many low-quality stations, especially those located in Asia and Australia.

Distributed adaptive direct position determination based on diffusion framework

The conventional direct position determination（DPD） algorithm processes all received signals on a single sensor.When sensors have limited computational capabilities or energy storage,it is desirable to distribute the computation among other sensors.A distributed adaptive DPD（DADPD）algorithm based on diffusion framework is proposed for emitter localization.Unlike the corresponding centralized adaptive DPD（CADPD） algorithm,all but one sensor in the proposed algorithm participate in processing the received signals and estimating the common emitter position,respectively.The computational load and energy consumption on a single sensor in the CADPD algorithm is distributed among other computing sensors in a balanced manner.Exactly the same iterative localization algorithm is carried out in each computing sensor,respectively,and the algorithm in each computing sensor exhibits quite similar convergence behavior.The difference of the localization and tracking performance between the proposed distributed algorithm and the corresponding CADPD algorithm is negligible through simulation evaluations.

Polynomial regression calculation of the Earth's position based on millisecond pulsar timing

Prior to achieving high precision navigation of a spacecraft using X-ray observations, a pulsar rotation model must be built and analysis of the precise posi- tion of the Earth should be performed using ground pulsar timing observations. We can simulate time-of-arrival ground observation data close to actual observed values before using pulsar timing observation data. Considering the correlation between the Earth＇s position and its short arc section of an orbit, we use polynomial regression to build the correlation. Regression coefficients can be calculated using the least square method, and a coordinate component series can also be obtained; that is, we can calcu- late Earth＇s position in the Barycentric Celestial Reference System according to pulse arrival time data and a precise pulsar rotation model. In order to set appropriate param- eters before the actual timing observations for Earth positioning, we can calculate the influence of the spatial distribution of pulsars on errors in the positioning result and the influence of error source variation on positioning by simulation. It is significant that the threshold values of the observation and systematic errors can be established before an actual observation occurs; namely, we can determine the observation mode with small errors and reject the observed data with big errors, thus improving the positioning result.

A PERISHABLE INVENTORY SYSTEM WITH SERVICE FACILITIES, MAP ARRIVALS AND PH- SERVICE TIMES

We consider a continuous review perishable （s,S） inventory system with a service facility consisting of a waiting hall of finite capacity and a single server. We assume two types of customers, ordinary and negative, arrive according to a Markovian Arrival Process （MAP）. An ordinary customer joins the queue and a negative customer instead of joining the queue removes one ordinary customer from the queue. The removal rule adopted in this paper is RCE （removal of a customer from the end）. The individual customer＇s unit demand is satisfied after a random time of service which is assumed to have a phase-type distribution. The life time of each item and the lead time of the reorders have been assumed to be independent exponential distributions. The joint probability distribution of the number of customers in the system and the inventory level is obtained for the steady state case. Various stationary system performance measures are computed and the total expected cost rate is calculated. The results are illustrated numerically.

Space time clock:An on-chip clock with 10^(-12) instability

High precision and stable clock is extremely important in communication and navigation.The miniaturization of the clocks is considered to be the trend to satisfy the demand for5G and the next generation communications.Based on the concept of meter bar and the principle of the constancy of light velocity,we designed a micro clock,Space Time Clock(STC),with the size smaller than 1 mm×1 mm and the power dissipation less than 2 m W.Designed in integrated circuit of 0.18μm technology,the instability of STC is assessed to be 2.23×10^(-12)and the trend of the instability is reversely proportional toτ.With the potential ability to reach the level of 10instability on chip in the future,the period of the STC’s signal is locked on the delay time defined by the meter bar which keeps the time reference constant.Because of its superior performance,the STC is more suitable for mobile communication,PNT(Positioning,Navigation and Timing),embedded processor and deep space application,and becomes the main payload of the ASRTU satellite scheduled to launch next year and investigate in space environment.

By using induction principle,the symmetric form of the Green＇s function is established. In order to construct a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence result, the method of iterative technique will be used. As an application, an example is given to illustrate our main result.
