Abstract:
Variable Structure Control (VSC) technique is applied to the design of robust homing missile guidance laws. In the design procedure, the target’s maneuver is assumed to be unpredictable and is considered as disturbances. Guidance laws are then proposed to achieve the interception performance for both cases of longitude-axis control being available and unavailable. The proposed guidance laws are continuous which alleviate chattering drawback by classic VSC design. Results are obtained and compared with those by realistic true proportional navigation design to illustrate the benefits of the prop

Abstract:
A distributed multi-missile cooperative guidance law based on the finite time theory is proposed to solve the terminal guidance problem of three-dimensional multi-missiles cooperative interception of large maneuvering target. According to the finite time consistency theory, an adaptive guidance law based on the integral sliding mode is designed to ensure that all missiles can reach the target at the same time in the terminal guidance process. The longitudinal and lateral acceleration of the line of sight are based on the guidance law of the fast terminal sliding mode surface. The terminal atta

Abstract:
A unique feature in the topographic organization of the olfactory bulb (OB) is the dual role of the odorant receptor (OR). It detects odors but it also plays an instructive role in the convergence of olfactory sensory neuron axons expressing the same odorant receptor to form glomeruli in specific loci of each olfactory bulb. This segregation of sensory afferents gives rise to the olfactory map, that has a critical role in encoding odors. How the OR could accomplish such different roles has remained enigmatic for more than 20 years. If the OR can determine axon convergence, it should act as a

Moreover, it has been reported that Brm associates with components of the spliceosome to regulate the inclusion of alternative internal exons.

In the guidance literature, minimizing miss distance along with optimizing the energy usage had been an objective for several decades. In current day applications, additional terminal performance such as impact angle and impact time are of paramount importance. These terminal constraints increase warhead effectiveness and survivability of the interceptor. This thesis contributes to the design of guidance laws addressing terminal constraints such as impact angle, impact time, and both impact time as well as impact angle, in addition to interception of targets.

Abstract:
AbstractThe purpose of the guidance control is to release a payload into a prescribed target orbit (PTO) accurately. The parameters that determine an orbit are called orbital elements (OEs), which include the semi-major axis a, the eccentricity e, the argument of perigee $$\omega $$ ω , the inclination angle i, and the longitude of ascending node (LAN) or the right ascension of ascending node (RAAN) $$\Omega $$ Ω , where a and e can be converted to the perigee height $$h_p$$ h p and the apogee height $$h_a$$ h a . Thus, the guidance mission of a launcher is a typical optimal control problem with multi-terminal constraints, which requires complex iterative calculations. Considering various constraints in practical applications, such as the accuracy of inertial navigation systems and the performances of embedded computing devices (speed and storage capacity), guidance methods need to balance the mission requirements, hardware resources, and algorithm complexity. A variety of guidance methods has been developed with distinct era characteristics.

Ethanol has been used for the last several years as an environmentally friendly alternative to methyl tertbutyl ether (MTBE), which is an oxygenate additive to gasoline, to increase octane levels, and to facilitate the combustion process. However, the need to find alternatives to imported oil and gas has spurred the increased use of ethanol as an alternative fuel source. Further, ethanol is being promoted as a potential trade-off for CO2 emissions from the burning of fossil fuels since CO2 is consumed by the plants used as the ethanol source.

Can we say, definitively, when an armed conflict no longer exists under international law? The short, unsatisfying answer is sometimes: it is clear when some conflicts terminate as a matter of international law, but a decisive determination eludes many others. The lack of fully-settled guidance often matters significantly. That is because international law tolerates, for the most part, far less violent harm, devastation, and suppression in situations other than armed conflicts. Thus, certain measures governed by the laws and customs of war—including killing and capturing the enemy, destroying
