The theoretical methods and one-dimensional hydro-dynamics simulations are used to give key scaling laws in capsule implosion. Based on these scaling laws, the volcanic islands of capsule mass-radius parameter space are obtained under the given conditions of hohlraum radiation temperature, in-flight adiabat, shaping velocity and ablator material. The variations in performance parameters with radiation temperature, in-flight adiabat, etc. are investigated. When the hohlraum radiation temperature increaseds, the stability of the capsule implosion will be better. And the capsule radius needs to be decreased under the condition that the mass is constant. When the in-flight adiabat increases, the energy gain decreases slightly and the stability becomes better. However the reduction in the one-dimensional ignition threshold factor results in a narrowing of the area of the volcanic island. When the shaping speed increases, the area of the volcanic island becomes slightly larger, and the stability change is not significant. The capsule radius needs to be increased under the condition that the capsule mass is constant, which causes larger aspect ratio. When the shell ablator material is changed to improve the mass ablation rate and the ablation pressure, the energy gain is larger and the stability is better. The capsule radius needs to be decreased under the condition that the capsule mass is constant..

The analysis of ultra-precision machining fluid field is characterized by complex geometry, diverse constitutive equation and free boundary flow, which results in unsatisfactory analysis if adopting traditional numerical method. Based on general characteristic of fluid field, a robust and widely adaptable fluid analysis method is proposed in this paper by applying D. G. Christopherson’s super-relaxation iterative method for nonnegative second order partial differential systems to ultra-precision machining fluid field analysis. Besides, taking magnetorheological finishing as an example, the numerical calculation of pressure field is conducted for the polishing area and it is revealed that the calculated pressure distribution has reasonable morphology and it extends from positive x axis to negative x axis, which agrees with the experiment results by Zheng Ligong et al. Moreover, the in-situ experimental measurement of normal pressure by Kistler sensor is conducted for immersion depth ranging over 0.1 to 0.3 mm, it is demonstrated that the relative errors of calculations against experimental results are all less than 20%, indicating that the proposed method is valid and accurate..

Simulation results show, by increasing bias voltage from 0 to 14 V, the metamaterial presents 250° phase compensation at 52 GHz. Moreover, the resonant frequency is continuously and reversibly shifted from 53.6 GHz to 49.9 GHz.

In order to study the experimental characteristics of air electrostatic discharge on display, the air electrostatic discharge curThe display is an important part of human-computer interaction. When the human body electrostatic discharge occurs on the surface of the display, it may lead to hardware and software faults. In order to study the experimental characteristics of air electrostatic discharge on display, the air electrostatic discharge current and the displacement current through the display screen were measured by a self-made device. It is found that the peak value of discharge current increases with the increase of approaching velocity, and the rising time decreases with the increase of approaching velocity. In the voltage range of ±10-±12 kV, the rise time increases and the peak current decreases under the influence of arc length. With the increase of the distance between the measurement point and the discharge point, the peak value of the displacement current waveform decreases and the rising time increases. The peak value of the positive polarity discharge is larger and the diffusion range is wider, while the rising time of the negative polarity discharge is more obvious. The charge density can be calculated from the displacement current waveform and its distribution. The charge density decreases with the distance of discharge position increasing. Although the peak value of negative polarity discharge current is lower than that of positive polarity, the charge density is higher.This indicates that the negative polarity discharge has a higher damage risk..

The KFCM algorithm is used for classifying and recognizing targetThe complex electromagnetic environment is a great threat to radio fuze, taking continuous wave Doppler radio fuze for example, a method based on frequency entropy by analyzing the frequency domain characteristic fuze detection output signal is proposed. The KFCM algorithm is used for classifying and recognizing target signal and jamming signal. As the end trajectory characteristic of fuze determines the fact that the received jamming signal power increase rapidly and the signal-to-noise ratio gets worse. Thus, combined with the KFCM incremental update model, the classification model is adjusted in real time according to signal-to-noise ratio to get a better effect. The result of experiment indicate that the KFCM algorithm with incremental update has good effect on the classification and recognition of target signal at different signal-to-noise ratio, and it can effectively improve the ability of anti-jamming of radio fuze..

At the same time, people have gradually found that the harm caused by ESD to human beings is very alarming. It can not only affect the normal life of human beings, but also limit the improvement of automation production level. Based on traditional electrostatic discharge the simulator with single equipment and limited function, can not meet the all-round and multi-purpose experimental requirements of electrostatic discharge. To solve this problem, a complete experimental simulator including electrode simulation, azimuth conversion and circuit transmission was designed and implemented.

Moreover, the method of multiple tests at a single point greatly increases the test time and lowers the test efficiency. To solve these problems, a device realizing multi-points test was designed. The test area can be adjusted automatically. The simulation results show that the device can meet the 9-point uniformity test of radiation field in the range of 500 mm×500 mm-1500 mm×1500 mm. In the 1000 mm×1000 mm test area, the experimental verification was carried out for the two frequency points of 1.35 GHz and 2.88 GHz. The experiment shows that the designed test device can meet the 9-point automatic test requirement of high-intensity radiation field uniformity, which greatly improves the test efficiency and automation..

In view of the large transverse distribution and divergence angle of proton beam, we derive the output signal when it goes through the cavity BPM, and the result shows that the output signal is identical to that generated by the beam passing through the symmetry center of the transverse distribution and at a certain angle of inclination. Based on the above principle, we use CST software to design and simulate cavity BPM, and determine the scheme of rectangular cavity with coupling waveguide. We discuss the applicability of this scheme for laser-accelerated beam and the resolution of different laser-driven proton beam parameters, and estimate the resolution of PW laser acceleration system..

In the SSAs, the multiple power modules were amplitude-modulated and phase-optimized for power combination, but one or a couple of damaged circulators (including sink loads) might cause failure of the whole RF system. Especially, according to experiments and simulation, when the transmission line between the two different level combiners met a specific condition, the scattering parameter of the system would have great fluctuations, even cut-off, if damages occurred in circulators or sink loads. In this paper, the simulation methods for multi-level synthetic amplifying are introduced in detail; as a new design concept of the amplifier, the failure analysis and related experiments focusing on amplification links of SSA under special circumstances are also presented..
