.e acquisition, alignment, and tracking system is an important part of airborne laser communication and is the prerequisite and guarantee for the normal communication link. In order to solve the problem of automatic tracking of laser communication links in the airborne environment, the rapid capture, alignment, and tracking of beams between terminals are realized. .is article proposes a stepping motor as a control servo system and a four-quadrant detector as an automatic tracking method for the detection unit. .e pulse width modulation signal controls the rotation speed of the stepping motor and combines the position distribution of the light spot on the four-quadrant detector to achieve high-precision beam tracking. On this basis, indoor simulation experiments are carried out. After many experiments, the tracking accuracy is better than 2.5 μrad, which shows that the system can be applied to airborne laser communication, and it is verified that this method has good automatic tracking performance for airborne laser communication....
,is paper focuses on the directivity design of array structures of acoustic directional transducers. Based on Huygens principles, the directivity formula of transducer arrays under random distribution in xyz space is derived when the circular piston transducers are used as the array element, which is used to analyze the directivity and acoustic pressure of conical transducer arrangements. In addition, a practical approach to analyze the directivity and acoustic pressure of transducer arrays under random arrangements is proposed. Findings. ,e conical transducer arrays show side lobes at higher frequency. Below the frequency of 2 kHz, array directivity shows rapid changes. Above the frequency of 2 kHz, array directivity varies slowly with frequency. Besides, the beam width is Θ−3 dB ≤ 29.85°....
Topology optimization (TO) of engineering products is an important design task to maximize performance and efficiency, which can be divided into two main categories of gradient-based and non-gradient-based methods. In recent years, significant attention has been brought to the non-gradient-based methods, mainly because they do not demand access to the derivatives of the objective functions. This property makes them well compatible to the structure of knowledge in the digital design and simulation domains, particularly in Computer Aided Design and Engineering (CAD/CAE) environments. These methods allow for the generation and evaluation of new evolutionary solutions without using the sensitivity information. In this work, a new non-gradient TO methodology using a variation of Simulated Annealing (SA) is presented. This methodology adaptively adjusts newly-generated candidates based on the history of the current solutions and uses the crystallization heuristic to smartly control the convergence of the TO problem. If the changes in the previous solutions of an element and its neighborhood improve the results, the crystallization factor increases the changes in the newly random generated solutions. Otherwise, it decreases the value of changes in the recently generated solutions. This methodology wisely improves the random exploration and convergence of the solutions in TO. In order to study the role of the various parameters in the algorithm, a variety of experiments are conducted and results are analyzed. In multiple case studies, it is shown that the final results are well comparable to the results obtained from the classic gradient-based methods. As an additional feature, a density filter is added to the algorithm to remove discontinuities and gray areas in the final solution resulting in robust outcomes in adjustable resolutions....
For the purpose of satisfying the demands of polarization-maintaining fibers for fiber optic gyroscopes, this article proposes a semicircular cladding birefringent hollow-core anti-resonant fiber. &e influence of structural parameters on the birefringence, loss, and bending loss of the fiber is studied. &e simulation results demonstrate that at 1550 nm, the ultimate loss of the fundamental mode of x and y polarization is 1.76 dB/m and 0.93 dB/m, respectively. &e birefringence can reach 1 × 10−4, and the wavelength range of birefringence greater than 10−4 can reach 60 nm. &is indicates that it has excellent bending properties. &e proposed optical fiber has excellent performance in polarization maintenance and can supply ideas for the research of highprecision fiber optic gyroscopes and other optical devices....
Beginning from the premise that the universe is static, and that the cosmological redshift is due to a nonconservative tired light effect, the following examines evidence supporting the prediction that photons will progressively blueshift when transiting through the gravity wells of galaxies, galaxy clusters, and superclusters. The presence of such a nonvelocity blueshift effect is seen to make a substantial contribution to Virgo cluster galaxy spectra, sufficient to dramatically decrease the cluster’s velocity dispersion and assessed virial mass and eliminate the need to assume the presence of large quantities of dark matter. The effect is also shown to account for the Fingers-of-God effect and Kaiser pancaking effect seen when the spectra of cluster galaxies are plotted in redshift space. The opposite effect, excessive redshifting of photons passing through cosmic voids is able to explain void elongation in redshift space, and also the subnormal luminosity of void galaxies. The proposed cosmological blueshifting phenomenon also explains the downturn of the slope of the Hubble Flow in the vicinity of the Local Group which projects a negative apparent velocity for photons propagating near the Milky Way. It also offers an explanation for the blueshift of the Andromeda galaxy spectra and for Arp’s findings that the spectra of primary galaxies in a cluster tend to be blueshifted relative to their companion galaxies. These photon energy phenomena are anticipated by the physics of subquantum kinetics which predicts that photons traversing long distances through intergalactic space should undergo nonconservative tired-light redshifting, and that photons passing through gravity potential wells should undergo progressive blueshifting. The latter effect may be visualized as a negative nonvelocity Hubble constant....
