The problem of the distributed cooperative guidance law of multiple missiles attacking a stationary target with impact angle constraint is investigated. A distributed cooperative guidance law, which consists of a nonsingular terminal sliding mode component for ensuring finite time convergence to the desired LOS angle and a coordination component for realizing finite time consensus of time-to-go estimates, is proposed. Analysis shows that the guidance law designed in this study can ensure that missiles’ time-to-go estimates represent real times to go once all the missiles fly along the desired LOS. Therefore, simultaneous arrival can be guaranteed. Furthermore, it is modified to accommodate the communication failure cases. Compared with existing results, this guidance law owns faster convergence rate and can satisfy large impact angles. Numerical simulations are performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed guidance law.

This paper is aimed at investigating the microstructure evolution of resin-based ablative materials under aerodynamic heating. The microstructure, morphology, material density, and thermophysical parameters at different positions of the material after aerodynamic heating were deeply studied. The changes in the microstructural characteristics of materials caused by complex reaction processes were investigated, including microstructural morphology, porosity, the overlap relationship between microstructural components, and the mutual positional relationship.

An on-orbit thrust estimation method of satellite based on parallel system, which can achieve high-efficiency and high-precision thrust estimation, is proposed. A complete satellite maneuvering parallel system framework is constructed. Initially, a real-time artificial model, which is consistent with the actual system, is established. The injection time of maneuvering control is estimated optimally based on the modification of the artificial model with the specific injection time treated as the optimization parameter. The jet time, with the minimum maneuvering error, is obtained. Then, a maneuver strategy is designed and fed back to the actual system. The method based on a parallel system with jet time as the optimal parameter has higher control accuracy than the previous maneuvering control, which only considers the speed increment. Simulation results show that the terminal error of the first maneuver using the parallel system method is less than 100 meters for a maneuvering mission of tens of kilometers.

The positioning function of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is a challenging and fundamental research topic and is the premise for UAVs to realize autonomous navigation. The disappearance of satellite signals makes it challenging to achieve accurate positioning. Thus, visual positioning algorithms based on computer vision have been proposed in recent years and these algorithms have produced good results. However, these algorithms have relatively simple functions and cannot perceive the environment. Their versatility is poor, and mismatching often occurs, which affects the positioning accuracy. Aiming to address the need for integrated target recognition, target matching, and positioning of UAVs, we propose an algorithm that integrates the target recognition, matching, and positioning functions by combining the single-shot multibox detector (SSD) algorithm with the deep feature matching algorithm. This algorithm is based on the idea of pseudo-Siamese networks and the SSD algorithm, introducing a deep feature matching method to directly calculate the correspondence between two images. The main idea is to use the VGG network trained by the SSD target recognition algorithm to extract deep features, without any special training for feature matching. Finally, by sharing neural network weights, the integrated design of target recognition and image-matching localization algorithms is achieved. Mismatches between the real-time and reference images are addressed by introducing the grid-based motion statistics algorithm to optimize the matching result and improve the correct matching efficiency of the target. The University-Release dataset was used to compare and analyze the performance of the proposed algorithm to verify its superiority and feasibility. The results show that the matching accuracy of the PSiamRML algorithm is generally good and that it significantly compensates for changes in the contrast, scale, brightness, blur, deformation, and so on, apart from improving the stability and robustness. Finally, a matching test scenario with aerial images captured by an S1000 six-rotor UAV served to verify the effectiveness and practicability of the PSiamRML algorithm.

Due to their enormous characteristics and applicability, quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have enjoyed much popularity lately. However, designing a stable control strategy for quadrotors still remains one of the major concerns mainly due to the requirement of an accurate system model. They are naturally underactuated systems, with complex and nonlinear dynamics as well as interaxes couplings. Considering the dynamical complexities of these vehicles, one of the efficient methods is to utilize the relay feedback experiments and automatic tuning approach to tackle these issues. This paper investigates the employment of the relay with embedded integrator approach, wherein the quadrotor dynamics are estimated effectively with minimal parameters as compared to previously utilized relay with hysteresis technique. Frequency sampling filter (FSF) is further utilized for the extraction of the needful data through the signals obtained using the relay experiments, followed by the estimation of the plant dynamics. PID controllers have then been developed using the approximated quadrotor models. Which are used in the proposed cascade control structure for the quadrotor. The demonstrated results and analysis present the efficacy of designed control system technique for the quadrotor UAV.

The tip leakage vortex (TLV) induced by the tip clearance flow has a significant impact on the performance of centrifugal compressors, causing impeller flow losses and reducing the stall margin. To solve this problem, an unsteady flow control technology called the NCFC method is proposed based on the concept of negative circulation control, realized by a vortex generator placed in a tube connected with the shroud through a hole. The approach is derived from a theoretical study of the compressor TLV by introducing a two-dimensional vortex model. A numerical simulation is then performed to verify the effectiveness of the NCFC method. The result shows that the NCFC method can greatly stabilize the flow field at the blade tip and improve the stall margin and efficiency of the compressor without reducing the total pressure ratio of the compressor, which has the characteristics of both unsteadiness and negative circulation effect. In addition, a HC method with only unsteady excitation effect is also studied for comparison, which only slightly stabilizes the blade tip flow and increases the stall margin of the compressor, suggesting that the NCFC is more effective than the HC. Finally, it is highly recommended to improve the efficiency of any unsteady jet/suction and separation flow interaction.

The large-scale space structure during on-orbit assembly is a time-varying system. The dynamic modeling problem of such incrementally increasing space structure is investigated, and a modular dynamic modeling approach is proposed in this paper. The dynamic model of each substructure is first established, and then, a database is designed to store substructure models, which is used for subsequent dynamic modeling in the assembly process. The fixed connection relationship between adjacent substructures is described by constraint conditions, which lead to the coefficient matrices of adjacent substructures being decoupled. The substructures are assembled in a given sequence, and then, the dynamic modeling, to describe the large-scale space structure on-orbit assembly, is gradually completed via using the proposed modeling approach. The numerical simulation is finally presented. The results demonstrate that the extra calculation resulting from the coefficient matrices coupling of adjacent substructures is avoided. Moreover, the proposed dynamic model can accurately describe the dynamic characteristics of the large-scale space structure during on-orbit assembly.

The purpose of this work is to study the effects of different loading rate ratios and loading speeds on the biaxial tension of hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) solid propellant. A proper kind of biaxial tensile specimen with which the stresses in its central part can be obtained with the loads acted on each loading direction is designed and used in the study, and the strains in its central parts are obtained with the digital image correlation (DIC) method. The stress and strain relationship at each direction can be obtained by experiments. The uniaxial stress vs. strain curves and the biaxial stress vs. strain curves were obtained, and it was found that the loading speed remarkably influenced the biaxial tensile behaviors of HTPB propellant. The Mises equivalent stress and strain could be used to describe the biaxial tension stress and strain state, and the exponential constitutive model obtained in the study could be used to predict the stress vs. strain curve under different test conditions.
