Study of magnetic field expansion using a plasma generator for space radiation active protection

There are many active protecting methods including Electrostatic Fields, Confined Magnetic Field, Unconfined Magnetic Field and Plasma Shielding etc. for defending the high-energy solar particle events (SPE) and Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCR) in deep space exploration. The concept of using cold plasma to expand a magnetic field is the best one of all possible methods so far. The magnetic field expansion caused by plasma can improve its protective efficiency of space particles. One kind of plasma generator has been developed and installed into the cylindrical permanent magnet in the eccentric. A plasma stream is produced using a helical-shaped antenna driven by a radio-frequency (RF) power supply of 13.56 MHz, which exits from both sides of the magnet and makes the magnetic field expand on one side. The discharging belts phenomenon is similar to the Earth's radiation belt, but the mechanism has yet to be understood. A magnetic probe is used to measure the magnetic field expansion distributions, and the results indicate that the magnetic field intensity increases under higher increments of the discharge power.     

基于可拓决策法的车辆自适应避撞控制方法研究

车辆的避撞控制可以有效避免或缓解车辆的碰撞事故,是自动驾驶汽车的关键控制技术之一.各种交通条件、不确定的道路附着系数以及复杂的液压制动执行系统都会降低避撞控制的有效性.因此,本文提出了一种基于可拓决策法的自适应避撞控制,该控制方法对路面附着系数具有自适应性,并能够精确控制制动系统的制动液压力.首先,设计了滑模观测器来估计轮胎纵向力,并基于观测得到的轮胎纵向力,进一步提出带遗忘因子的递推最小二乘法估计道路附着系数.其次,基于递推最小二乘法的估计值,提出了基于路面附着系数自适应调节的自适应避撞控制方法,该方法基于可拓决策法的先决判定决定当前时刻应采用何种避撞控制策略,即采用可拓决策方法判断进行点刹预警制动、全制动或者不制动.再次,通过对执行系统-电控液压制动系统进行精确的液压控制,实现主动减速控制效果.最后,采用软件联合仿真手段对上述方法进行了验证,结果表明所提出的算法在避撞行驶工况中具有良好的避撞效果.
