Variability and Long-Term Trend of Total Cloud Cover in China Derived from ISCCP, ERA-40, CRU3, and Ground Station Datasets

Total Cloud Cover (TCC) over China determined from four climate datasets including the International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP), the 40-year Re-Analysis Project of the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ERA-40), Climate Research Unit Time Series 3.0 (CRU3), and ground station datasets are used to show spatial and temporal variation of TCC and their differences. It is demonstrated that the four datasets show similar spatial pattern and seasonal variation. The maximum value is derived from ISCCP. TCC value in North China derived from ERA-40 is 50% larger than that from the station dataset; however, the value is 50% less than that in South China. The annual TCC of ISCCP, ERA-40, and ground station datasets shows a decreasing trend during 1984-2002; however, an increasing trend is derived from CRU3. The results of this study imply remarkable differences of TCC derived from surface and satellite observations as well as model simulations. The potential effects of these differences on cloud climatology and associated climatic issues should be carefully considered.

Rain Attenuation Impact on Performance of Satellite Ground Stations for Low Earth Orbiting (LEO) Satellites in Europe

Low Earth Orbits (LEO) satellites are used for public communication and for scientific purposes. These satellites provide opportunities for investigations for which alternative techniques are either difficult or impossible to apply. Ground stations have to be established in order to communicate with such satellites. Usually these satellites communicate with ground stations at S-band. The communication quality depends on the performance of the satellite ground station, in addition to that of satellite. The performance of the satellite ground stations is expressed through Figure of Merit. The aim of this paper is to analyze the rain attenuation impact on the performance of the respective ground station. Rain attenuation depends on geographical location where the satellite ground station is implemented. In order to compare this effect on satellite ground station performance, some cities of Europe are considered. Finally, the rain attenuation impact on the satellite ground station Figure of Merit for the hypothetical satellite ground station installed in Prishtina is analyzed.

Long-term semi-autonomous orbit determination supported by a few ground stations for navigation constellation

In view of the present technology of autonomous orbit determination for navigation satellite constellation(NSC) and the geographical conditions of China,we propose a long-term semi-autonomous orbit determination scheme supported by a few ground stations for NSC in this paper.Since the effect of rotation and translation of the entire constellation relative to the inertial reference frame can bring large errors to the autonomous orbit determination using only cross-link range measurement,a few ground stations(such as 1-3) are supposed to construct the connection between the NSC and the ground.Supported by such a few ground stations,the NSC can realize long-term orbit determination called semi-autonomous orbit determination.The simulation results based on the IGS ephemeris indicate that,for a certain degree of measurement errors,the NSC can maintain its semi-autonomous orbit determination in a period of 240 days within 5 meters of URE.

Analysis of Design Directions for Ground Control Station (GCS)

This study is a preparation phase for integrated visualization of battlefield situation. To develop the ground control station for unmanned systems, many factors have to be considered from the design stages, such as layout, information component, representation scheme, and human operation methods. Considering such many factors can be very difficult, hence we conducted an in-depth investigation of design factors from major UAV stations around the world. We analyzed the design characteristics and the specifics. In conclusion, we were able to derive some common aspects of design characteristics, which lead to the successful design approach.

Design of Ground Control Station for Operation of Multiple Combat Entities

Recently, if you look at the trend of the Unmanned Combat Entities (UCE) on the world that are actually operational, a large number of personnel per one UCE has been operating the GCS. However, UCEs to perform the attack/reconnaissance mission are very expensive assets and require a considerable amount of time to train for UCE operations. Accordingly, the future battlefield environment has become important to develop multiple UCE ground control station. In this study, we developed a multiple UCE GCS that one operator can operate up to four UCEs. The software was built with a total of 6 displays using a Lockheed Martin Corporation’s prepar3D. Scenario of research takes into account the operation of the South Korea-type future multiple UCEs, to take advantage of the simulation system, in this paper, we propose for each of the concepts and technologies.

Feasibility evaluation for excavation of Naghshe Jahan Square subway station by underground methods

In recent years, in reaction to the increasing usage of urban areas, the excavation of underground spaces has been developed. One of the most challenging issues encountered by engineers is the construction of subway stations as large underground spaces at shallow depth with soft surrounding soils. In this paper, Naghshe Jahan Square subway station located in Isfahan, Iran, has been simulated by geomechanical fnite difference method(FDM). This station is located under important historical structures. Therefore, the ground displacement and surface settlement induced by the excavation of the subway station should be strictly controlled. Many of such problems are affected by selected excavation method. For these reasons, different underground excavation methods associated with construction have been studied. In this study, sequential excavation method and large-diameter curved pipe roofng method are used and the numerical results of the two methods are compared. The presence of groundwater table obliges us to choose special techniques for the stability of the ground around the subway station during construction; hence compressed air and ground freezing techniques are utilized in the simulations of the subway station. Finally, after choosing appropriate support systems, the large-diameter curved pipe roofng method with 1.5 m spacing between curved pipes is proposed.

基于静力推覆分析的穿越地裂缝浅埋地铁车站地震破坏模式研究

以处于西安f4地裂缝场地的浅埋地铁车站为研究对象,通过开展振动台试验,探讨了地裂缝场地和结构的震害特征。同时,考虑场地地震响应的非一致性,采用静力推覆分析方法,分析了穿越地裂缝浅埋地铁车站的地震破坏模式。结果表明:针对地裂缝场地地下结构的Pushover分析方法能够较真实地反应地震作用下地裂缝场地的活动特征和地下结构的破坏特点。在水平地震作用下,趋于稳定状态的地裂缝上、下盘土体主要进行张合活动(相互挤压与分离)。其中,相互挤压会对结构中柱施加明显附加压弯作用。地裂缝场地土体的水平剪切变形是结构破坏的主要外在因素,而地裂缝活动造成的附加压弯作用会进一步增大中柱轴压比,降低中柱的变形能力,加速结构的地震破坏。在地裂缝场地特征变形作用下,结构底层中柱水平剪切变形能力相对较弱,且结构剪力表现出明显的空间分布规律,上盘结构底层中柱是结构的抗震关键构件。研究结果对该类结构的抗震设计具有重要参考价值。

站用10 kV系统中性点接地方式对避雷器地电位升安全限值的影响

随着电网容量变大和新型电力系统的发展,站用10 kV系统中性点接地方式发生改变,仍沿用系统中性点不接地方式下避雷器耐受接地网地电位(U_(GPR))升高的安全限值可能会导致避雷器在其他接地方式下出现安全事故。采用电磁暂态程序ATP-draw可以搭建不同中性点接地方式下U_(GPR)反击避雷器的模型,通过校核避雷器在U_(GPR)作用下动作过程中的吸收能量,得到了中性点接地方式对避雷器耐受U_(GPR)安全限值的影响规律:中性点不接地时,避雷器耐受U_(GPR)安全限值为10~23 kV,随线路对地电容变大而减小;中性点经消弧线圈接地时,U_(GPR)在消弧线圈和线路对地电容的串联回路中产生振荡,导致避雷器耐受U_(GPR)安全限值更低,安全限值主要由脱谐度与阻尼率决定,典型值为8~9.5 kV;中性点经电阻接地时,U_(GPR)大部分耦合至高压母线,使避雷器耐受U_(GPR)安全限值更高,并随线路对地电容和中性点电阻的增大而减小,大电阻接地工况下的典型值大于15 kV,小电阻接地工况下的典型值大于25 kV。
