STRUCTURAL DEIGN OF KEY COMPONENTS OF FEEDER BASED ON TOPOLOGY OPTIMIZATION AND MULTI-OBJECTIVE OPTIMIZATION by TANG HuaPing, LI HongXing, JIANG YongZheng, LIU Jie

“…Therefore,based on the variable density method and substructure technique,a topology optimization model of constrained stress and volume fraction is established with the combined strain energy of spring upper seat as the optimization objective function,based on sensitivity analysis and least square method,a response surface model of first order torsion,bending frequency and total mass is established. At last,genetic algorithm is used to carry out the multiple object optimization to the response surface model,and the optimal solution set of Pareto is obtained. …”

TC4钛合金板抗高强杆弹正撞击侵彻特性实验研究 by 杨永刚, 冯岩, 魏刚, 邓云飞

“…The test of rod impact on TC4 titanium alloy plate with a thickness of 10 mm was carried out on a light gas gun,in order to study the damage behavior and the effect of projectile head shape on the anti-penetration performance of the target plate.The ballistic limit velocities of target plates were obtained under various impact conditions.The damage characteristics and mechanism of target plate were analyzed by microscopic observation.The results show that the failure modes of TC4 plates are different when impacted by blunt-nose projectile and ogival-nose projectiles,and the anti-penetration capability of target to ogivalnose projectile is better than that of bunt-nose projectile.After impacted by ogival-nose projectile,the front perforated and the back peeled off of targets were observed,as well as the shape of the back perforation is approximately conical.However,the damage of the target plate is shear plug type,accompanied by the neat edge and smooth inner wall of the impact hole.In addition,the adiabatic shear bands were observed by scanning electron microscope when the blunt-nosed projectile penetrated the target plate.…”

CASTWED： continuous authentication combining smart terminal with wearable devices in mobile satellite communication system by Ri-xin XU, Xiao-bing CHEN, Lie-huang ZHU

“…Wearab1e devices，such as smart watches or smart brace1ets，have been growing rapid1y wor1dwide.These devices with various sensors have the abi1ity to perceive the circumstance and user's biometric features，which can be used to continuous1y authenticate a user's identity.However，these features have not been studied to identify a specific user in mobi1e sate11ite communication system yet，due to its 1ow data transfer rate and unacceptab1e de1ay.To so1ve this prob1em，continuous authentication combing smart termina1 with wearab1e devices（CASTWED）was studied in mobi1e sate11ite communication system，the security of CASTWED was a1so theoretica11y ana1yzed.Simu1ation experiments show that the CASTWED scheme can provide simu1taneous on1ine authentication service for 100 000 users via 60 Mbit/s Ku wave band.…”
