Extended Range Guided Munition Aerodynamic Configuration Design

Based on the analysis of the flying scheme and flying style of an extended range guided munition(ERGM), the aerodynamic characteristics design standards were put forward. According to the standards, the ERGM aerodynamic configuration was designed, and the wind tunnel experiments were processed. The experimental results show that the configuration has lower drag and good static stability at unguided flying stage. Moreover, the stability, maneuverability, rudder deflection angle and balance angle of attack of the configuration are all reasonably matched at guided flying stage, and the munition with the configuration can glide with larger lift-drag ratio at little balance angle of attack. The experimental results also indicate that the canard can't conduct rolling control when 1.0 ＜ Ma ＜ 1.5, so the ERGM must take rolling flight style with certain limited rolling speed.

Weak wide-band signal detection method based on small-scale periodic state of Duffing oscillator

The conventional Duffing oscillator weak signal detection method, which is based on a strong reference signal, has inherent deficiencies. To address these issues, the characteristics of the Duffing oscillator＇s phase trajectory in a small- scale periodic state are analyzed by introducing the theory of stopping oscillation system. Based on this approach, a novel Duffing oscillator weak wide-band signal detection method is proposed. In this novel method, the reference signal is discarded, and the to-be-detected signal is directly used as a driving force. By calculating the cosine function of a phase space angle, a single Duffing oscillator can be used for weak wide-band signal detection instead of an array of uncoupled Duffing oscillators. Simulation results indicate that, compared with the conventional Duffing oscillator detection method, this approach performs better in frequency detection intervals, and reduces the signal-to-noise ratio detection threshold, while improving the real-time performance of the system.

Effects of Dimensional Tolerances on the Friction Power Loss of Hydrodynamic Journal Bearing System

According to the dimensional tolerances on hydrodynamic journal bearing system, a nonlinear oil film force model was established,and the Reynolds' equation was solved by adopting finite difference method. In order to fulfill different dimensional tolerances in the system,adopting 2kfactor design and using the eccentricity ratio corresponding to the stability critical curve,the effects of the friction power loss brought by the dimensional tolerances of the dynamic viscosity,bearing width,bearing diameter and journal diameter were analyzed. The effect on dynamic characteristics of the hydrodynamic journal bearing system was quantitatively analyzed,and the nonlinear dynamic analysis, modeling and calculation methods were studied while considering the manufacturing tolerances. The results show that in contrast to the impacts of the tolerances in journal diameter,dynamic viscosity and bearing width,the bearing diameter tolerance would lead to the rise in the power loss, and the dimensional tolerances have different degrees of impacts on the journal bearing system. The friction power loss decreased as the eccentricity ratio increased, and when the eccentricity ratio was 0. 695 the power loss came to the minimum.The investigation would find the best solution and reduce energy consumption,then control varieties of nonlinear dynamical behavior effectively,and provide a theoretical basis for hydrodynamic journal bearing system in parameter design.

Investigation of Surface Micro Waviness in Single Point Diamond Fly Cutting

Single point diamond fly cutting is widely used in the manufacture of large-aperture ultra-precision optical elements. However,some micro waviness( amplitude about 30 nm,wavelength about 15 mm) along the cutting direction which will decrease the quality of the optical elements can always be found in the processed surface,and the axial vibration of the spindle caused by the cut-in process is speculated as the immediate cause of this waviness. In this paper,the analytical method of dynamic mesh is applied for simulating the dynamic behavior of the vertical spindle. The consequence is then exerted to the fly cutter and the processed surface profile is simulated. The wavelength of the simulation result coincides well with the experimental result which proves the importance of the cut-in process during the single point diamond fly cutting.

IDFT Numerical Simulation Method for Gaussian Rough Surface with Relatively Large Correlation Length

A numerical simulation method based on inverse discrete Fourier transform(IDFT)is presented for generating Gaussian rough surface with a desired autocorrelation function(ACF). The probability density function of the height distribution of the generated Gaussian surface and the root-mean-square height of the rough surface are also considered. It is found that the height distribution of the generated surface follows the Gaussian distribution, the deviation of the root-mean-square height of the modeled rough surface from the desired value is smaller than that of Patir's method, and the autocorrelation function of the modeled surface is also in good agreement with the desired autocorrelation function. Compared with Patir's method, the modeled surface generated by the IDFT method is in better agreement with the desired autocorrelation function, especially when the correlation length is relatively large.

The radar cross section (RCS) of dispenser and its components is computed by graphical electromagnetic computing (GRECO) method, which bases on physical optics (PO) method. A satisfied agreement is gotten between computed and measured results outdoor. The results show that the main scattering source of the dispenser is the mirror reflecting of the body; in the most crucial nose-on region, the nose mirror reflecting plays important role; the corner reflecting is important to the fins' RCS. The corresponding measures to reduce dispenser's RCS are proposed. It is indicated that to reduce RCS, shaping should be adopts first, while aerodynamic characteristics and stealth characteristics should be considered synthetically during the design of dispenser.

Scratching by pad asperities in copper electrochemical-mechanical polishing

Low dielectric constant materials/Cu interconnects integration technology provides the direction as well as the challenges in the fabrication of integrated circuits(IC) wafers during copper electrochemical-mechanical polishing(ECMP). These challenges arise primarily from the mechanical fragility of such dielectrics, in which the undesirable scratches are prone to produce. To mitigate this problem, a new model is proposed to predict the initiation of scratching based on the mechanical properties of passive layer and copper substrate. In order to deduce the ratio of the passive layer yield strength to the substrate yield strength and the layer thickness, the limit analysis solution of surface scratch under Berkovich indenter is used to analyze the nano-scratch experimental measurements. The modulus of the passive layer can be calculated by the nano-indentation test combined with the FEM simulation. It is found that the film modulus is about 30% of the substrate modulus. Various regimes of scratching are delineated by FEM modeling and the results are verified by experimental data.

Wood-derived biochar as thick electrodes for high-rate performance supercapacitors

Developing effective electrodes with commercial-level active mass-loading(>10 mg cm^(−2))is vital for the practical application of supercapacitors.However,high active mass-loading usually requires thick active mass layer,which severely hinders the ion/electron transport and results in poor capacitive performance.Herein,a self-standing biochar electrode with active mass-loading of ca.40 mg cm^(−2) and thickness of 800μm has been developed from basswood.The basswood was treated with formamide to incorporate N/O in the carbon structure,followed by mild KOH activation to ameliorate the pore size and introduce more O species in the carbon matrix.The as-prepared carbon monoliths possess well conductive carbon skeleton,abundant N/O dopant and 3D porous structure,which are favorable for the ion/electron transport and promoting capacitance performance.The self-standing carbon electrode not only exhibits the maximum areal/mass/volumetric specific capacitance of 5037.5 mF cm^(−2)/172.5 F g^(−1)/63.0 F cm^(−3) at 2 mA cm^(−2)(0.05 A g^(−1)),but also displays excellent rate performance with 76%capacitance retention at 500 mA cm^(−2)(12.5 A g^(−1))in a symmetric supercapacitor,surpassing the state-of-art biomass-based thick carbon electrode.The assembled model can power typical electron devices including a fan,a digital watch and a logo made up of 34 light-emitting diodes for a proper period,revealing its practical application potential.This study not only puts forward a commercial-level high active mass-loading electrode from biomass for supercapacitor,but also bridges the gap between the experimental research and practical application.
