Autonomous vehicles are being developed to replace the conventional, manned surface vehicles that tow mine hunting towed platforms. While a wide body of work exists that describes numerical models of towed systems, they usually include relatively simple models of the towed bodies and neglect the dynamics of the towing vehicle. For systems in which the mass of the towing vehicle is comparable to that of the towed vehicle, it becomes important to consider the dynamics of both vehicles. In this work, we describe the development of a numerical model that accurately captures the dynamics of these new mine hunting systems. We use a lumped mass approximation for the towcable and couple this model to non-linear numerical models of an autonomous surface vehicle and an actively controlled towfish. Within the dynamics models of the two vehicles, we include non-linear controllers to allow accurate maneuvering of the towed system. 相似文献
The breaking of wind-generated waves is an important phenomenon in the ocean, having close relation to many aspects of the ocean, such as air-sea interaction, ocean wave dynamics, oceanic remote sensing and ocean engineering. The first problem encountered in both its theoretical study and practical measurement is how to detect the breaking of waves. 相似文献
In various regions along the east and southeast coast of China and on the outer shelf of the East China Sea, series of cheniers have been found and studied. Their geomorphological and sedimentological features have been described and the main conditions for their formation established.
The development of cheniers in China can be divided into three periods: 24,000-15,000 yrs B.P., 7000-5000 yrs B.P. and 5000 yrs B.P. onwards. These periods have been based on 14C datings of 80 shell samples. The chenier groups of the three periods are distributed throughout various geomorphological locations.
Using the geomorphological locations of the cheniers in combination with their age of formation, the palaeopositions of the Chinese coastline in the various periods since 24,000 yrs B.P. are described. The history of the position of the east coast of China, including the features attesting to sealevel changes during this era, is briefly discussed. 相似文献
Mangroves are special woody plant communities in the intertidal zone of tropical and subtropical coasts. They prove to be a natural microorganisms and new metabolites storage. In the study of mangrove endophytic fungi metabolites, four new compounds, Compounds 1, 2, 3 and 4, as well as a known octaketide, cytosporone B (5), are isolated from an endophytic fungus, Dothiorella sp., HTF3. They all show cytotoxic activities. The elucidation of these structures is mainly based on 1D/2D NMR and ESI-MS spectral analyses. 相似文献
