Simulation results show better agreement between the SSA2 model and the numerical method for both vertical and horizontal polarizations, meaning that SSA2 gives a satisfactory prediction of the spectral difference between two po- larizations; while such discrepancy cannot be captured using the lowest-order SSA （SSA1） model. In particular, the Doppler shifts and spectral widths for different incident angles, wind directions and polarizations are analyzed, demonstrating correct variations with respect to such parameters. Those observations prove that the SSA2 provides an efficient and relatively fast tool for sea surface Doppler spectral analysis.展开更多

The study o f the contact force between the end of polishing tool and the surface of work-p iece is the key for the compliant EDM to study its cutting mechanism and to make better use of it. This paper makes a model for the contact force and verifies i t by experiments and simulation based on the theory of elastic body kinetics and dynamic stress concentration. The research work shows that this contact force i s caused by both the electrical impulsion of EDM and the mechanical force of ult rasonic vibration, the discharge frequency of compliant EDM has a much more clos er connection with the vibration frequency of polishing tool rather than the fre quency of ultrasonic vibration.展开更多

Towing tank test is the traditional approach to identify these coefficients,however, the obtained values are not completely reliable since experimental difficulties and errors are involved. In this paper,an extended Kalman filter (EKF) method and a least squares (LS) method are proposed,only using onboard sensor data for identification of a small underactuated USV. The vehicle prototype as well as the system integration is delineated. Performance of the identification is evaluated by comparing the estimated coefficients,and the feasibility and accuracy of the proposed approach is demonstrated by simulation.展开更多
