基于时变比例系数的陀螺仪/星敏感器组合定姿方法研究

为提高卫星定姿精度,对一种基于时变比例系数的陀螺仪/星敏器组合定姿方法进行了研究。采用扩展卡尔曼滤波(EKF)方法进行组合定姿。针对传统EKF的估计误差稳态值存在波动的问题,基于陀螺仪误差模型分析,对传统陀螺仪误差模型进行改进,将观测性较好的四元数误差引入陀螺仪误差模型。为提高稳态精度并尽量缩短收敛时间,用时变比例系数对四元数误差进行加权,在滤波初期选择相对较小的比例系数以弱化比例系数对滤波的影响,使滤波器较快收敛,之后逐渐加大比例系数以提高稳态精度。给出了决定时变比例系数相关参数的确定方法,以及改进滤波器的设计及其控制原理。仿真结果表明:与传统陀螺仪和有固定比例系数的两种误差模型相比,所建立的陀螺仪误差模型能以相对较少的收敛时间,减小估计误差稳态值波动,有效提高姿态角估计精度。

Multivariable Fuzzy Predictive Control Based on the Modified CPN Model

Through modifying the CPN model, a kind of multivariable fuzzy model is put forward, and the matching fuzzy multistep predictive control algorithm is deduced based on the model. The modified model works in a competitive output manner which results in its local representation property. While studying on line, only a few parameters need to be regulated. So the model has the merits of fast learning and on line self organizing modeling. The control algorithm is simple, adaptive and useful in multivariable and time delay systems. Applying the algorithm in a paper making system, simulation shows its good effect.

Application of Geodetic Receivers to Timing and Time Transfer

Two methods for smoothing pseudorange observable by Carrier and Doppler are discussed. Then the procedure based on the RINEX observation files is tested using the Ashtech Z-XII3T geodetic receivers driven by a stable external frequency at UNSO. This paper proposes to adapt this procedure for the links between geodetic receivers, in order to take advantage of the P codes available on L 1 and L 2. This new procedure uses the 30-second RINEX observations files, the standard of the International GPS Service (IGS), and processes the ionosphere-free combination of the codes P 1 and P 2; the satellite positions are deduced from the IGS rapid orbits, available after two days.

Diurnal Variation of Soil CO2 Efflux and Its Optimal Measuring Time-window of Temperate Meadow Steppes in Western Songnen Plain, China

In order to study the diurnal variation of soil CO2 effiux from temperate meadow steppes in Northeast China, and determine the best time for observation, a field experiment was conducted with a LI-6400 soil CO2 flux system under five typical plant communi- ties （Suaeda glauca （Sg）, Chloris virgata （Cv）, Puecinellia distans （Pd）, Leymus chinensis （Lc） and Phragmites australis （Pa）） and an alkali-spot land （As） at the meadow steppe of western Songnen Plain. The results showed that the diurnal variation of soil CO2 effiux exhibited a single peak curve in the growing season. Diurnal maximum soil respiration （Rs） often appeared between 1 1：00 and 13：00, while the minimum occurred at 21：00-23：00 or before dawn. Air temperature near the soil surface （Ta） and soil temperature at 10 cm depth （Tlo） exerted dominant control on the diurnal variations of soil respiration. The time-windows 7：00-9：00 could be used as the optimal measuring time to represent the daily mean soil CO2 effiux at the Cv, Pd, Lc and Pa sites. The daily mean soil CO2 effiux was close to the soil COz effiux from 15：00 to 17：00 and the mean of 2 individual soil CO2 effiux from 15：00 to 19：00 at the As and Sg sites, respectively. During nocturnal hours, negative soil CO2 fluxes （CO2 downwards into the soil） were frequently observed at the As and Sg sites, the magnitude of the negative CO2 fluxes were 0.10-1.55 gmol/（m2.s） and 0.10-0.69 gmol/（m2.s）at the two sites. The results im- plied that alkaline soils could absorb CO2 under natural condition, which might have significant implications to the global carbon budget accounting.

Oil–water two-phase flow pattern analysis with ERT based measurement and multivariate maximum Lyapunov exponent

Oil–water two-phase flow patterns in a horizontal pipe are analyzed with a 16-electrode electrical resistance tomography(ERT) system. The measurement data of the ERT are treated as a multivariate time-series, thus the information extracted from each electrode represents the local phase distribution and fraction change at that location. The multivariate maximum Lyapunov exponent(MMLE) is extracted from the 16-dimension time-series to demonstrate the change of flow pattern versus the superficial velocity ratio of oil to water. The correlation dimension of the multivariate time-series is further introduced to jointly characterize and finally separate the flow patterns with MMLE. The change of flow patterns with superficial oil velocity at different water superficial velocities is studied with MMLE and correlation dimension, respectively, and the flow pattern transition can also be characterized with these two features. The proposed MMLE and correlation dimension map could effectively separate the flow patterns, thus is an effective tool for flow pattern identification and transition analysis.

Greenhouse gas emissions from shallow uncovered coal seams

This study discusses a method of quantifying emissions from surface coal mining that has been trialled in Australia. The method is based on direct measurement of surface emissions from uncovered coal seams in mine pits, concurrent measurement of residual gas content of blasted coal in mine pits, and measurement of pre-mining gas content of the same seam from cores retrieved from exploration boreholes drilled away from active mining. The results from one of the mines studied are presented in this paper. In this mine,the pre-mining gas content of the target seam was measured using cores from an exploration borehole away from active mining. Gas content varied from 0.7 to 0.8 m3/t and gas composition varied from16% to 21% CH4(84–79% CO2). In-pit measurements included seam surface emissions and residual gas content of blasted and ripped coal. Residual gas content varied from 0.09 to 0.15 m3/t, less than twofold across the mine pit. Composition of the residual gas was in general 90% CO2and 10% CH4, with slight variation between samples. Coal seam surface emissions varied from 1.03 to 7.50 mL of CO2-e per minute and per square meter of the coal seam surface, a sevenfold variation across the mine pit.

A new method for high precsion instantaneous speedmeasurement of hydraulic system

The instantaneous speed of a hydraulic system contains a wealth of operational information,and its accurate extraction is the basis for condition monitoring and fault diagnosis.In order to solve the problem of high hardware requirement for instantaneous speed measurement based on data acquisition card,a new method of high precision measurement is proposed.In this method,the time-displacement information of each tooth is obtained from the pulsed square wave signal of the gear disk collected by magnetoelectric sensors.The time-displacement curve is interpolated by the cubic spline interpolation method,and then the instantaneous speed is calculated by the five-point digital differential formula.The experimental results show that the method improves the speed measurement resolution and reduces the quantization error.The high precision instantaneous speed signal can also be acquired by hardware devices with less teeth and low sampling frequency.The related research results provide a theoretical basis and a method for improving the accuracy of instantaneous speed measurement.

Finally, the geodesic equations and acceleration of the test particle are discussed.

A dual measurement method of strain and temperature

With the rapid development of China's foreign trade, the coastal and inland waterway transport has been increased rapidly. The potential market for marine engines is more and more obvious. The measurement of the engine temperature and strain becomes very important. The fluorescence fiber sensors are broadly used to measure temperature, concentration, and pH value, etc. The fluorescence sensing systems are based on different principles, namely fluorescence intensity, fluorescence intensity ratio, and fluorescence lifetime. The fluorescence lifetime is an effective parameter for sensing purpose, because it is independent of the intensity of the pumping source and does not need expensive narrow-band filters. An experiment system has been established, in which some samples were produced to measure the fluorescence lifetime and temperature characteristics and the relationship of the strain and temperature versus the fluorescence lifetime was achieved at the same time. The experiment result was fitted and analyzed. The test results show that the fluorescence lifetime decreases with the increasing of temperature. The change of fluorescence lifetime with the strain is inconspicuous comparing to that with the temperature.

Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional based power system stability analysis in environment of WAMS

In order to analyze power system stability in environment of WAMS(wide area measurement system),a new steady state stability model with time-varying delay was proposed for power system.The factors of exciter and power system stabilizer with delay were introduced into analytical model.To decrease conservativeness of stability analysis,an improved Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional was constructed,and then a new delay-dependent steady state stability criterion for power system,which overcomes the disadvantages of eigenvalue computation method,was derived.The proposed model and criterion were tested on synchronous-machine infinite-bus power system.The test results demonstrate that Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional based power system stability analysis method is applicable and effective in the analysis of time delay power system stability.

Analytical investigation for stress measurement with the rheological stress recovery method in deep soft rock

Due to the difficulty and weakness of current stress measurement methods in deep soft rock, a new rheological stress recovery method of the determination of the three-dimensional(3D) stress tensor is proposed. It is supposed that rock stresses will recovery gradually with time and can be measured by embedding transducers into the borehole. In order to explore the applicability and accuracy of this method, analytical solutions are developed for stress measurement with the rheological stress recovery method in a viscoelastic surrounding rock, the rheological properties of which are depicted as both the Burger's model and a 3-parameter solid model. In such conditions, explicit analytical expressions for predicting time-dependent pressures on the transducer are derived. A parametric analysis is then adopted to investigate the influences of the grout solidification time and the mechanical properties of the grout layer. The results indicate that this method is suitable for stress measurement in deep soft rock, the characteristics of which are soft, fractured and subjected to high geo-stress.

Landslide monitoring with high-resolution SAR data in the Three Gorges region

Employing the well-known D-InSAR technique,we investigated landslide monitoring in the Three Gorges region using TerraSAR-X data.The experiment demonstrates that using both the amplitude and differential phase allows us to identify the precise location,deformation and time range of occurrence of certain landslides.To overcome the atmospheric effect on D-InSAR results,a time-series analysis was also carried out.The observed nonlinear relationship between the deformation and water level suggests that reservoir water level fluctuation is one of the major causes of landslides,which is significant in terms of issuing landslide warnings.In addition,the comparison of TerraSAR-X and C-band ASAR data results indicates that TerraSAR-X data provide far more reasonable deformation measurements because of their high temporal and spatial resolutions.

CONSENSUS CONTROL FOR LEADER-FOLLOWING MULTI-AGENT SYSTEMS WITH MEASUREMENT NOISES

This work is concerned with consensus control for a class of leader-following multi-agentsystems (MASs).The information that each agent received is corrupted by measurement noises.Toreduce the impact of noises on consensus,time-varying consensus gains are adopted,based on whichconsensus protocols are designed.By using the tools of stochastic analysis and algebraic graph theory,asufficient condition is obtained for the protocol to ensure strong mean square consensus under the fixedtopologies.This condition is shown to be necessary and sufficient in the noise-free case.Furthermore,by using a common Lyapunov function,the result is extended to the switching topology case.

Analysis of internal tidal characteristics in the layer above 450 m from acoustic Doppler current profiler observations in the Luzon Strait

The characteristics of internal tides in the upper layer of the Luzon Strait are investigated on the basis of direct-observation current data recorded on April 25 and September 26, 2008 by an acoustic Doppler current profiler. Spectral analysis and energy estimation show that the diurnals and semidiurnals carry most of the energy of internal tides. Values of the depth-integrated total energy E for the three frequency bands of diurnal, semidiurnal, and high frequencies are 31, 6.9, and 3.4 kJ. m, respectively. Near-inertial peaks are only present in the baroclinic component. The behavior of typical tidal frequencies （i.e., O1, K1, M2, MK3, and M4） and the near-inertial frequency is basically consistent with linear internal wave theory, which predicts E＋（ω）/E_（ω）=（ω-f）2/（ω＋f）2 at depths above 66 m, while not all prominent tidal components coincide well with the relation of the linear internal wave field at other depths. Examinations of depth structures of the baroclinic tides and temporal variations show that the surface tides and internal tides are both of mixed type, having diurnal inequality and spring-neap fortnight periods. The K1 and O1 tides have comparable cross- and along-shelf components, while the M2 and S2 tides propagate toward the shelf in the northern South China Sea as wave beams. The amplitude and phase of internal tides vary with time, but M2 and S2 tides appear to have structures dominated by the first mode, while the K1 and O1 tides resemble second-mode structures. The minor to major axis ratios are close to expected values of flω in the thermocline.

Adaptive Feedback Stabilization with Quantized State Measurements for a Class of Chaotic Systems

We investigate asymptotical stabilization for a class of chaotic systems by means of quantization measurements of states.The quantizer adopted in this paper takes finite many values.In particular,one zoomer is placed at the input terminal of the quantizer,and another zoomer is located at the output terminal of the quantizer.The zoomers possess a common adjustable time-varying parameter.By using the adaptive laws for the time-varying parameter and estimating boundary error of values of quantization,the stabilization feedback controller with the quantized state measurements is proposed for a class of chaotic systems.Finally,some numerical examples are given to demonstrate the validity of the proposed methods.
