Алгоритмы контроля действий лётного экипажа по управлению летательным аппаратом

В статье рассмотрены алгоритмы контроля действий лётного экипажа по управлению летательным аппаратом (ЛА). В этой связи отмечено, что управление летательным аппаратом, реализуемое человеком-оператором, носит кусочно-непрерывный характер и представляет собой совокупность отдельных операций. При этом под операцией понимается такое действие человека по управлению ЛА, для которого существует совокупность условий, определяющих его начало и конец. Логический контроль управления движением летательным аппаратом заключается в проверке соответствия действий оператора требуемой логике управления в текущий момент времени. Проведенный анализ операторской деятельности лётных экипажей при управлении летательного аппарата позволил определить перечень возможных ошибок, возникающих в процессе этой деятельности

Stable Isotope Composition of Fatty Acids in Organisms of Different Trophic Levels in the Yenisei River

We studied four-link food chain, periphytic microalgae and water moss (producers), trichopteran larvae (consumers I), gammarids (omnivorous – consumers II) and Siberian grayling (consumers III) at a littoral site of the Yenisei River on the basis of three years monthly sampling. Analysis of bulk carbon stable isotopes and compound specific isotope analysis of fatty acids (FA) were done. As found, there was a gradual depletion in 13C contents of fatty acids, including essential FA upward the food chain. In all the trophic levels a parabolic dependence of δ13C values of fatty acids on their degree of unsaturation/chain length occurred, with 18:2n-6 and 18:3n-3 in its lowest point. The pattern in the δ13C differences between individual fatty acids was quite similar to that reported in literature for marine pelagic food webs. Hypotheses on isotope fractionation were suggested to explain the findings

Full-commanding a network: The dictator

A network of chaotic dynamical systems may synchronize. For some networks there is the possibility that, coupling a new node to the network, the synchronization will be commanded by that new node. That possibility depends on the network and on the way the new node is coupled to the network.We consider a coupling that can provide what we call a full-commanding and we define the corresponding full-commandwindow. The limit situations corresponding to a completely connected network and to a completely disconnected one provide us some understanding about what makes a network more receptive or more resistant to commanding

Instabilities of Hexagonal Patterns with Broken Chiral Symmetry

Three coupled Ginzburg-Landau equations for hexagonal patterns with broken chiral symmetry are investigated. They are relevant for the dynamics close to onset of rotating non-Boussinesq or surface-tension-driven convection. Steady and oscillatory, long- and short-wave instabilities of the hexagons are found. For the long-wave behavior coupled phase equations are derived. Numerical simulations of the Ginzburg-Landau equations indicate bistability between spatio-temporally chaotic patterns and stable steady hexagons. The chaotic state can, however, not be described properly with the Ginzburg-Landau equations.Comment: 11 pages, 7 figures, submitted to Physica

Induced defect nucleation and side-band instabilities in hexagons with rotation and mean flow

The combined effect of mean flow and rotation on hexagonal patterns is investigated using Ginzburg-Landau equations that include nonlinear gradient terms as well as the nonlocal coupling provided by the mean flow. Long-wave and short-wave side-band instabilities are determined. Due to the nonlinear gradient terms and enhanced by the mean flow, the penta-hepta defects can become unstable to the induced nucleation of dislocations in the defect-free amplitude, which can lead to the proliferation of penta-hepta defects and persistent spatio-temporal chaos. For individual penta-hepta defects the nonlinear gradient terms enhance climbing or gliding motion, depending on whether they break the chiral symmetry or not.Comment: 24 pages, 15 figures, submitted to Physica

Penta-Hepta Defect Motion in Hexagonal Patterns

Structure and dynamics of penta-hepta defects in hexagonal patterns is studied in the framework of coupled amplitude equations for underlying plane waves. Analytical solution for phase field of moving PHD is found in the far field, which generalizes the static solution due to Pismen and Nepomnyashchy (1993). The mobility tensor of PHD is calculated using combined analytical and numerical approach. The results for the velocity of PHD climbing in slightly non-optimal hexagonal patterns are compared with numerical simulations of amplitude equations. Interaction of penta-hepta defects in optimal hexagonal patterns is also considered.Comment: 4 pages, Postscript (submitted to PRL

Mean flow in hexagonal convection: stability and nonlinear dynamics

Weakly nonlinear hexagon convection patterns coupled to mean flow are investigated within the framework of coupled Ginzburg-Landau equations. The equations are in particular relevant for non-Boussinesq Rayleigh-B\'enard convection at low Prandtl numbers. The mean flow is found to (1) affect only one of the two long-wave phase modes of the hexagons and (2) suppress the mixing between the two phase modes. As a consequence, for small Prandtl numbers the transverse and the longitudinal phase instability occur in sufficiently distinct parameter regimes that they can be studied separately. Through the formation of penta-hepta defects, they lead to different types of transient disordered states. The results for the dynamics of the penta-hepta defects shed light on the persistence of grain boundaries in such disordered states.Comment: 33 pages, 20 figures.

Chaotic Free-Space Laser Communication over Turbulent Channel

The dynamics of errors caused by atmospheric turbulence in a self-synchronizing chaos based communication system that stably transmits information over a $\sim$5 km free-space laser link is studied experimentally. Binary information is transmitted using a chaotic sequence of short-term pulses as carrier. The information signal slightly shifts the chaotic time position of each pulse depending on the information bit. We report the results of an experimental analysis of the atmospheric turbulence in the channel and the impact of turbulence on the Bit-Error-Rate (BER) performance of this chaos based communication system.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figure
