Abstract:
On 3 May 1945, British—Indian forces landed in Rangoon. The Japanese had pulled out. The city was liberated. On 16 June there was a victory parade, though the final victory over Japan was still distant and most of their conquests were intact. Admiral Mountbatten, Supreme Allied Commander, took the salute while detachments representing the one million men under his command passed by in massed array. Famous regiments from Britain, India and Nepal; the Royal Navy; the Royal Air Force; men from the United States Air Force. It was an impressive sight, though the ceremony took place in pouring rain. Amongst them all was a somewhat ragged band representing the Burma National Army which, having been raised by the Japanese, had fought for three months alongside the British. Watching the parade from the central dais was a young man dressed in the uniform of a Japanese Major-General, though he also wore an arm-band with a conspicuous red star. The outfit was incongruously crowned by a pith sun-helmet—a topi. Probably most foreigners present assumed he was a Chinese officer. He was actually Bogyoke Aung San, commander of the BNA.

Abstract:
Emerging hybrid threats in large-scale warfare systems require networked teams to perform in a reliable manner under changing mission tactics and reconfiguration of mission tasks and force resources. In this paper, a formal Command and Control (C2) structure is presented that allows for computer-aided execution of the networked team decision-making process, real-time tactic selection, and reliable mission reconfiguration. A mathematically justified networked computing environment is provided called the Augmented Discrete Event Control (ADEC) framework. ADEC is portable and has the ability to provide logical connectivity among all team participants including mission commander, field commanders, war-fighters, and robotic platforms. The proposed C2 structure is developed and demonstrated on a simulation study involving Singapore Armed Forces team with three realistic symmetrical, asymmetrical, and hybrid attack missions. Extensive simulation results show that the tasks and resources of multiple missions are fairly sequenced, mission tactics are correctly selected, and missions and resources are reliably reconfigured in real time.

Abstract:
AbstractIn October 2008, upon the request of the Afghan government, NATO Defence Ministers meeting in Budapest agreed that ‘ISAF [International Security Assistance Force] can act in concert with the Afghans against facilities and facilitators supporting the insurgency, in the context of counternarcotics, subject to the authorization of respective nations’. In explaining the scope of the contemplated actions, NATO officials noted that drug producers and traffickers who aided the ongoing insurgency could now be attacked. NATO's Supreme Allied Commander Europe (SACEUR), US General Bantz Craddock, justified the policy on the ground that the Taliban reaped over $100 million annually from the drug trade. US Secretary of Defence Robert Gates likewise defended the decision as sound strategy.It soon became clear that other key figures were less enamoured with the new approach, or the subsequent guidance issued to effectuate it. On 5 January 2009, Craddock instructed General Egon Ramms, the German Commander of Allied Joint Force Command Brunssum, which overseas NATO operations in Afghanistan, ‘to attack directly drug producers and facilities throughout Afghanistan’. The threshold for engagement seemed to require little connection to the insurgency. According to SACEUR's guidance, it was ‘no longer necessary to produce intelligence or other evidence that each particular drug trafficker or narcotics facility in Afghanistan meets the criteria of being a military objective’ because the alliance ‘has decided that (drug traffickers and narcotics facilities) are inextricably linked to the Opposing Military Forces, and thus may be attacked’.

Abstract:
As unmanned systems become more intelligent, ground force may be able to interact directly with the UAS, without the need for a human UAS operator as a moderator. We looked at how interaction tools facilitate coordination between commanders and intelligent autonomous UASs. For this a mission execution interface (MEI) was developed. It was added to an existing chat and graphical bi-directional communication interface that was shown valuable for commander-UAS operator interaction. This setup was tested in the battle-lab facility using Wizard-of-Oz technique to generate the intelligent UAS capabilities. Focusing on the utility of the MEI relative to chat alone, or when both communication means are provided, results demonstrate how the MEI was used for mission execution for static or dynamic targets. Design improvements need to be applied to the MEI following the study outcomes and user feedback to make it more effective for conveying the commander’s intent throughout the mission.

Abstract:
In 2021, 80 years will have passed since the death of Bolesław Stachoń, the Polish pilot and a Royal Air Force (RAF) liaison officer. His contribution to the development of Polish aviation and his activity as the commander of the congregation camp in Eastchurch (December 1939 – July 1940) and later Swinderby Airport (VII 1940 – VII 1941 r.), from which he flew combat missions, remain unknown. His education, war experience and knowledge of foreign languages predetermined Stachoń to perform high functions in the army. He was, among other things, park commander in the 11th Aviation Regiment in Lida, the Pilot School in the NCO Aviation Training Center and the commander of the Aviation Shooting and Bombing School in Grudziądz. He ran an editing business and published articles in "Przegląd Lotniczy...", and also he published books in the field of aviation. Before the Second World War world he held a diplomatic function in Moscow. He was the first Pole to gain a gyroplane pilot's license, thanks to which he brought the C-30 airship to Warsaw. In September 1939, he commanded units that brought down over 20 German planes. On the orders of General Józef Zając he undertook a military mission to Romania, where he oversaw the evacuation of Polish airmen to France. From there he made a detour to England, where he was in command of the RAF Volunteer Reserve Training Center. In exile, he continued his editorial work; cofounding the magazine "News from the World: the daily newsletter of the Center Polish Aviation in England"; published "One-day Polish Aviation in England". Bolesław Stachoń was an icon of interwar Polish aviation and first-class pilot. He died during his third bomber flight on July 4 1941.

Abstract:
The operational equipment of the Security and Rescue Team (Matan) of the Paskhas Command Battalion called the Integrated Personal Protection (IPP Set) is currently incomplete because monitoring of the implementation of the Matan Team's activities is limited to reports through radio / HT communication tools, so that in decision making actions by the Operations Commander Puskodalops is not optimal and accurate according to the conditions in the field. Therefore we need a system that can monitor the movements of the Matan Team that can monitor the position and visual forces in real time. This monitoring system using radio telemetry can transmit data in the form of GPS coordinates displayed by Google Map as well as visual image data recorded by FPV cameras in realtime using the 3DR telemetry transmission system 433 Mhz and VTX 5.8 Ghz mounted on a tactical helmet and received by ground station receiver antennas at Puskodalops, so that the position of the matan team personnel can be monitored and conditions in the field can be monitored in realtime so that the Operations Commander can make decisions more quickly, precisely and accurately according to field conditions.Keywords : Telemetry, Security and Rescue Team (Matan)

Abstract:
One of the worst hotel fires in the USA occurred at the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada, on November 21, 1980. This tragedy claimed 84 lives and injured 300 others. The toll might have been higher were it not for Air Force assistance.Nine U.S. Air Force helicopters responded swiftly to the scene in answer to the city of Las Vegas plea for help. The call came from the Metropolitan Police Department at 7:38 a.m. and got an immediate response from the Nellis Air Force Base (AFB) Consolidated Command Post. By 7:55 a.m., the first Huey helicopter was airborne. Less than 20 minutes later it was hovering over the MGM Grand Hotel. Evacuation of survivors began immediately, according to Major Larry B. Doege, commander of Detachment 1, 57th Fighter Weapons Wing.

Abstract:
Abstract Multinational Brigade Operations involving NATO and its European Partners are the norm in the post-Cold War Era. Commonplace today are Multinational Brigades, composed of staffs and subordinate units representing almost every NATO Country and Partner, participating in training exercises or actual operations in both the European and Southwest Asian Theatres. Leadership challenges are prevalent for the Multinational Brigade Commander and his staff, especially those challenges they face in achieving an effective level of brigade interoperability in order to conduct successful operations in NATO’s present and future operating environments. The purpose of this paper is twofold: to examine the major interoperability obstacles a multinational brigade commander and his staff are likely to encounter during the planning and execution of brigade operations; and, to recommend actions and measures a multinational brigade commander and his staff can implement to facilitate interoperability in a multinational brigade operating environment. Several key interoperability topics considered integral to effective multinational brigade operations will be examined and analysed to include understanding partner unit capabilities and limitations facilitated by an integration plan, appropriate command and support relationships, compatible communications, synchronized intelligence and information collection, establishing effective liaison, and fratricide prevention. The paper conclusion will urge for a NATO land brigade doctrine considering doctrine’s critical importance to effective brigade command and control interoperability and the expected missions a land brigade will encounter in future NATO operating environments as part of the NATO Very High Readiness Joint Task Force (VJTF).

The commander on the modern battlefield has the responsibility of supervising more assets and evaluating more information than ever before. Therefore, there exists a need for an aid to assist the commander in selecting a recommended course of action. The purpose of this thesis was to develop a tactical decision aid model that would assist the commander in selecting a course of action. The Quantified Judgment Model (QJM) served as the algorithm in this decision aid model. The QJM is a combat model that analyzed ground combat with a primary focus on the historical aspect of combat. Factors that served as input for the decision aid model included: 1. initial force structure for a US and Soviet force, 2. non tactical variables that influence the battle, 3. intelligence, 4. operational and environmental factors, and 5. current doctrine. The model varied the input variables and determined a force structure necessary for the battle to end in a draw. The primary focus of this thesis was not the assumptions made in the model or the tactical situation examined, but the methodology used in developing the model

Abstract:
Le vieillissement de la population dans notre société moderne va entraîner de nouveaux besoins pour l’assistance aux personnes âgées et pour la réhabilitation. Les exosquelettes sont une piste de recherche prenant de plus en plus d’importance pour répondre à ces nouveaux challenges. Deux de ces challenges sont, la réalisation d’un contrôle naturel pour l’utilisateur et la sécurité. Cette maîtrise cherche à répondre à ces deux problématiques. Nous avons donc développé un outil de travail informatique utilisant les décharges électriques produites par les neurones moteurs pour contracter les muscles et un modèle des os et des muscles du bras. Cet outil utilise la librairie informatique ROS et OpenSim. Elle permet de connaître la force et le mouvement développés par le coude. De plus, un autre outil informatique a été développé pour optimiser le modèle des os et des muscles du bras pour le personnaliser à l’utilisateur pour un meilleur résultat. Une carte d’acquisition utilisant des électrodes de surface pouvant être reliées avec un ordinateur par USB et compatible avec ROS a été développée. Pour tester les algorithmes développés, un exosquelette pour le coude utilisant un actionneur compliant et contrôlé en force a été conçu. Pour compenser le poids de l’exosquelette et l’effet d’amortissement passif de l’actionneur, une compensation de gravité dynamique a été développée. Finalement, des expérimentations ont été menées sur l’efficacité de l’optimisation du modèle et sur l’exosquelette avec les différents algorithmes.

Abstract:
This dissertation examines the role of military officers as policy implementers by investigating the discretion of Swedish force commanders in the multinational military campaign in Afghanistan between 2006 and 2013. By developing an analytical framework that takes both an outside-in and an inside-out perspective, and that encompasses both the objective implications that structural factors project on force commanders as well as their subjective perceptions of those structural factors, and applying that framework to a range of official documents as well as unique interview data, the thesis describes the discretion that force commanders have had in interpreting, choosing and shaping their mission and concept of operations. The findings show that Swedish force commanders in the Afghanistan campaign have had considerable discretion in interpreting and framing the principal’s overarching mission, the mission of their own force, as well as their force’s concept of operations. Their discretion can be understood as a combination of structurally induced freedom to make choices, the force commanders’ perceptions of that freedom and their inclination to use it. Circumstances regarding structural factors such as duality of command, passive authority of superiors, non-specific tasks and ambiguous implications of allocated resources has created this discretion and rendered force commanders disproportionately influential in the policy implementation process. Although this influence can be regarded as a manifestation of modern management ideals such as Auftragstaktik and mission command in the military, or management by objectives in government and business, it can also be regarded as a downwards passing of the buck where strategic implementation decisions trickle down to the level of force commanders in the field, making them “strategic colonels”.

Abstract:
Soviet Naval Force Control is the process that the Soviets use to control naval forces during execution of assigned missions, as well as create and maintain combat readiness and fighting efficiency. It is the underlying basis of the Red naval C3 system; it provides control throughout a system composed of command posts, intelligence sensors, naval forces and weapons, and an interconnecting communications network. The concept of Soviet Naval Force Control and its support of the Red naval C3 system is discussed in this thesis. Emphasis is placed on how the Blue commander can use this information to enhance his decision making process concerning the utilization of his own C3 system. Major concepts examined in the thesis include Marxist-Leninist theory, Soviet military thought, cybernetics, and the Naval Force Control process. The assumption is made by the author that a Blue commander who is aware of and conversant with the major concepts presented in this thesis will have a better understanding of the Soviet approach to the C3 process and how it affects Soviet actions. In turn, this understanding will increase his ability to control his own C3 system and successfully achieve his goal in battle outcome. Theses. (fr)

Abstract:
The intent of this research has been to identify system input and output changes that will be needed to transport FRESH (an employment scheduling expert system) from CINCPACFLT to CINCLANTFLT. A general discussion of expert system theory is presented tying this theory to FRESH wherever possible. Specific uses of FRESH at CINCPACFLT are discussed as well as the present Pacific FRESH input and output requirements. CINCLANTFLT's existing manual method of scheduling is discussed. Finally CINCLANTFLT's proposed changes to the Pacific FRESH inputs and outputs are analyzed. Conclusions identify what FRESH inputs and outputs must be changed prior to FRESH transference to CINCLANTFLT. FRESH is an extremely useful expert system prototype that is used: 1) to generate long range ship's employment schedules--a macro ship's schedule which covers all major events for a ship over a five year period; 2) to monitor changes that impact Fleet readiness and provide viable replacements for units with major casualties; 3) to evaluate the impact of rescheduling ships; and 4) to improve effectiveness of valuable personnel resources.

This following project describes and assesses the current inventory-stocking model used by Commander Submarine Pacific (CSP) to manage its SSN repair parts stocking levels during a deployment work-up period. We also introduce a proposed demand based inventory management tool called Pacific Regional Inventory Stocking Model (PRISM), and compare it with the model currently being used within CSP. This analysis will then evaluate the effectiveness of each system as a management tool utilizing data from CSP's SSN-688 Fast-Attack Submarines. Decision criteria estimated are operational readiness and cost. The results of this comparison also demonstrate a management tool that optimizes inventory stocking. This will increase an SSN-688 submarine's operational readiness while on station and potentially achieve cost savings through optimizing onboard inventory. Recommendations will be provided, based on the results of the comparison, with respect to the feasibility of implementing PRISM, maintaining CSP's current stocking system, or developing a new submarine stocking system to replace the status quo.

Abstract:
This chapter explores the relationship between Force Commanders and their peacekeeping troops. The qualitative material suggests that strategic divergences or cross-cultural misunderstandings between peacekeepers and their Force Commander may jeopardize a mission’s effectiveness. Yet, a mission composed of troops with high distance from the Force Commander can be interpreted as a signal of the commitment of the wider United Nations, representing global interest in a local context. Moreover, when the potential negative effects of greater or lesser dissimilarity between Force Commanders and troops are tempered by contact and learning, peacekeeping effectiveness should improve. The net effect, assessed through quantitative analysis, suggests that dissimilarity between Force Commanders and peacekeepers matters mostly for protecting civilians, whereas it does not seem to be relevant for resolving the conflict between belligerents. Conversely, a greater linguistic distance between the Force Commander and Blue Helmets might hamper civilian protection.

Abstract:
As Commander in Chief of the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD). Not only in charge of air defense of the United States and Canada, Kuter also oversaw the development and building of the Cheyenne Mountain Operations Center. Cheyenne Mountain would become synonymous with NORAD, and the United States Air Force. In his capacity as CINC NORAD, Kuter briefed President Kennedy and Vice President Johnson on the importance of continental defense during the Cuban Missile Crisis. He advocated extending the missile warning system to cover approaches by missiles from any direction. In this final position Kuter had not attained the zenith of his air force career, but oversaw a global operation that was unimaginable when he graduated from West Point. As Kuter had matured, so had the United States Air Force.

Abstract:
Kuter left Maxwell to take command of the Far East Air Forces (FEAF). As Lieutenant General Kuter flew to his new assignment he was promoted to full general shortly after midnight on May 29, 1955. For an officer whose first flight was in a bi-plane, the importance of assuming his ultimate final rank on a trans-oceanic flight was surely not lost on him. During his career, the United States Army Air Corps had transitioned to a truly global and independent Air Force capable flying Kuter rather comfortably to his new assignment. The Air Force, like Kuter had fully matured and reached a pinnacle thought impossible as little as a decade ago. Kuter had grown with this Air Force, molding it, organizing it, shaping it and giving it the ability to do span the globe. General Kuter helped to reorganize the command and transitioned it to the newly created Pacific Air Forces (PACAF), becoming the new unit’s first commander.

Abstract:
In the late summer of 89 BC, the first war between Pontos and Rome began. Mithridates was able to exploit rising resentment against the Roman presence in Asia Minor, near his kingdom, especially due to the predatory actions of officials and tax collectors. Mithridates gradually defeated various Roman armies and their commander, Aquillius. But in 88 BC he ordered the massacre of all Romans in Asia. While this move was not without local support, it was a disastrous case of overreach by the king and turned public opinion against him. An invasion of Greece, especially Athens, by his senior commander, Archelaos, was successful at first, but a Roman force under Sulla eventually defeated the Pontic forces, and the king was forced to withdraw from Greece. The Romans carried the war to Asia Minor, and in 86 BC Mithridates was forced to accept peace terms.

Abstract:
Abstract Flexible Computer Integrated Manufacturing (FCIM) technology existing today in industry, combined with modern repair processes, can be used to address erosion and corrosion inherent in submarine and surface ship fluid systems. Commander Submarine Force Atlantic Fleet (COMSUBLANT) will implement in the near future a Pump and Valve Repair System in the Trident Refit Facility (TRF), Submarine Base, Kings Bay, Georgia. The system will support the repair of submarine and surface ship components such as valve bodies, valve tailpieces, and pump casings. It will replace metal lost by erosion and corrosion using repair processes such as automated welding and epoxy spray and reliably return these components to original specification with computer numerical control (CNC) machining.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper presents a proposed control method for controlling the foot positions of two robotic legs through direct operator inputs with haptic feedback. The robot consists of two 3-DoF legs driven by pneumatic actuators. A demonstration of the controller shows the tracking performance enhancements of the proposed force-based position controller over a simple differential pressure gain scheduler-based position controller. The proposed controller incorporates pressure feedback to create supplementary force control. Foot position tracking remains within 10% of the commanded reference position, even through the sharp disparities of loading conditions as the actuators are either lifting the weight of the legs or supporting the weight of the robot itself. An operator gives direct foot position commands to the controller through two PHANToM haptic devices. Bilateral teleoperation of the system provides directional force feedback to the operator as a function of foot position error. The proposed controller also decreases the ambient and false forces reflected to the operator while moving the legs through gait cycles.

In ASME 2013 International Manufacturing Science and Engineering Conference collocated with the 41st North American Manufacturing Research Conference.

Full text
Abstract:
The objective of this research is to develop a closed-loop control system for robotic friction stir welding (FSW) that simultaneously controls force and temperature in order to maintain weld quality under various process disturbances. FSW is a solid-state joining process enabling welds with excellent metallurgical and mechanical properties, as well as significant energy consumption and cost savings compared to traditional fusion welding processes. During FSW, several process parameter and condition variations (thermal constraints, material properties, geometry, etc.) are present. The FSW process can be sensitive to these variations, which are commonly present in a production environment; hence, there is a significant need to control the process to assure high weld quality. Reliable FSW for a wide range of applications will require closed-loop control of certain process parameters. A linear multi-input-multi-output process model has been developed that captures the dynamic relations between two process inputs (commanded spindle speed and commanded vertical tool position) and two process outputs (interface temperature and axial force). A closed-loop controller was implemented that combines temperature and force control on an industrial robotic FSW system. The performance of the combined control system was demonstrated with successful command tracking and disturbance rejection. Within a certain range, desired axial forces and interface temperatures are achieved by automatically adjusting the spindle speed and the vertical tool position at the same time. The axial force and interface temperature is maintained during both thermal and geometric disturbances and thus weld quality can be maintained for a variety of conditions in which each control strategy applied independently could fail.

Abstract:
The water transportation of cargo is, among several possible modes of transportation, the most economically and environmentally efficient. Adding technology to pusher-barge systems increases the efficiency of this form of transport. It is not only limited to the design and manufacturing process, but extends to the training of commanders and crews. An efficient way to ensure this training is immersion in virtual scenarios that simulate reality. To have realistic response of the simulator to external commands and boundary conditions, it is necessary to understand the hydrodynamics of the pusher-barge system in its various working conditions. This paper presents results and discussions on the hydrodynamics of a river pusher-barge system based on computational results from CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) and experimental results from towing tank test using small scale model. Initially the coefficients of current forces acting on the vessel in the horizontal plane (surge, sway and yaw) obtained by the two methods are presented. Several current incident angles were analyzed in the following cases: two drafts (ballasted and full-loaded), three configurations of barges (1 × 1, 2 × 1 and 2 × 2) and two water depths. Next, the results are compared and the divergences due to small difference in geometry and scale effects are analyzed. The hypotheses formulated for possible causes of the divergences are grounded through mathematical and experimental models and simulations. To cancel these effects and perform validation of CFD, new simulations are presented with similar geometry to the model tested.
