    查看更多>>摘要:Qualitative spacecraft pursuit-evasion problem which focuses on feasibility is rarely stud-ied because of high-dimensional dynamics,intractable terminal constraints and heavy computa-tional cost.In this paper,A physics-informed framework is proposed for the problem,providing an intuitive method for spacecraft threat relationship determination,situation assessment,mission feasibility analysis and orbital game rules summarization.For the first time,situation adjustment suggestions can be provided for the weak player in orbital game.First,a dimension-reduction dynamics is derived in the line-of-sight rotation coordinate system and the qualitative model is determined,reducing complexity and avoiding the difficulty of target set presentation caused by individual modeling.Second,the Backwards Reachable Set(BRS)of the target set is used for state space partition and capture zone presentation.Reverse-time analysis can eliminate the influence of changeable initial state and enable the proposed framework to analyze plural situations simultane-ously.Third,a time-dependent Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs(HJI)Partial Differential Equation(PDE)is established to describe BRS evolution driven by dimension-reduction dynamics,based on level set method.Then,Physics-Informed Neural Networks(PINNs)are extended to HJI PDE final value problem,supporting orbital game rules summarization through capture zone evolution analysis.Finally,numerical results demonstrate the feasibility and efficiency of the proposed framework.

    查看更多>>摘要:In this paper,we present a novel initial costates solver for initializing time-optimal tra-jectory problems in relative motion with continuous low thrust.The proposed solver consists of two primary components:training a Multilayer Perceptron(MLP)for generating reference sequence and Time of Flight(TOF)to the target,and deriving a system of linear algebraic equations for obtaining the initial costates.To overcome the challenge of generating training samples for the MLP,the backward generation method is proposed to obtain five different training databases.The training database and sample form are determined by analyzing the input and output correla-tion using the Pearson correlation coefficient.The best-performing MLP is obtained by analyzing the training results with various hyper-parameter combinations.A reference sequence starting from the initial states is obtained by integrating forward with the near-optimal control vector from the output of MLP.Finally,a system of linear algebraic equations for estimating the initial costates is derived using the reference sequence and the necessary conditions for optimality.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed initial costates solver improves the convergence ratio and reduce the function calls of the shooting function.Furthermore,Monte-Carlo simulation illustrates that the initial costates solver is applicable to different initial velocities,demonstrating excellent gen-eralization ability.

    查看更多>>摘要:This paper investigates an analytical optimal pose tracking control problem for chaser spacecraft during the close-range proximity operations with a non-cooperative space target subject to attitude tumbling and unknown orbital maneuvering.Firstly,the relative translational motion between the orbital target and the chaser spacecraft is described in the Line-of-Sight(LOS)coordi-nate frame along with attitude quaternion dynamics.Then,based on the coupled 6-Degree of Free-dom(DOF)pose dynamic model,an analytical optimal control action consisting of constrained optimal control value,application time and its duration are proposed via exploring the iterative sequential action control algorithm.Meanwhile,the global closed-loop asymptotic stability of the proposed predictive control action is presented and discussed.Compared with traditional prox-imity control schemes,the highlighting advantages are that the application time and duration of the devised controller is applied discretely in light of the influence of the instantaneous pose configura-tion on the pose tracking performance with less energy consumptions rather than at each sample time.Finally,three groups of illustrative examples are organized to validate the effectiveness of the proposed analytical optimal pose tracking control scheme.

    查看更多>>摘要:Neighboring optimal guidance,a method to obtain a suboptimal guidance law by approximately solving the first-order necessary conditions based on a nominal trajectory,is widely used in the aerospace field due to its high computational efficiency and low resource usage.For more advanced scenarios,the existing methods still have a problem that the guidance accuracy and optimality will seriously degrade when the actual state largely deviates from the nominal tra-jectory.This is mainly caused by the approximate description of the first-order conditions in terms of total flight time and nonlinear constraints.To address this problem,a higher-order neighboring optimal guidance method is proposed.First,a novel total flight time updating strategy,together with a normalized time scale,is presented that transforms the optimal problem with free total flight time into a more tractable optimal problem with fixed total flight time.Then,using the vector par-tial derivative method,a higher-order approximation is adopted,instead of the first-order approx-imation,to accurately describe the nonlinear dynamical and terminal constraints,thus obtaining a polynomially constrained quadratic optimal problem.Finally,to numerically solve the polynomi-ally constrained quadratic optimal problem,a Newton-type iterative algorithm based on the orthogonal decomposition is designed.Through the iterative solution within each guidance period,the corrections to control quantities and total flight time are generated.The proposed method is applied to a launch vehicle orbital injection problem,and simulation results show that it achieves high accuracy of orbital injection and optimality of performance index.

    查看更多>>摘要:This paper presents a novel evasion guidance law for hypersonic morphing vehicles,focusing on determining the optimized wing's unfolded angle to promote maneuverability based on an intelligent algorithm.First,the pursuit-evasion problem is modeled as a Markov decision process.And the agent's action consists of maneuver overload and the unfolded angle of wings,which is different from the conventional evasion guidance designed for fixed-shape vehicles.The reward function is formulated to ensure that the miss distances satisfy the prescribed bounds while minimizing energy consumption.Then,to maximize the expected cumulative reward,a residual learning method is proposed based on proximal policy optimization,which integrates the optimal evasion for linear cases as the baseline and trains to optimize the performance for nonlinear engage-ment with multiple pursuers.Therefore,offline training guarantees improvement of the constructed evasion guidance law over conventional ones.Ultimately,the guidance law for online implementa-tion includes only analytical calculations.It maps from the confrontation state to the expected angle of attack and the unfolded angle while retaining high computational efficiency.Simulations show that the proposed evasion guidance law can utilize the change of unfolded angle to extend the max-imum overload capability.And it surpasses conventional maneuver strategies by ensuring better evasion efficacy and higher energy efficiency.

    查看更多>>摘要:In modern Beyond-Visual-Range(BVR)aerial combat,unmanned loyal wingmen are pivotal,yet their autonomous capabilities are limited.Our study introduces an advanced control algorithm based on hierarchical reinforcement learning to enhance these capabilities for critical mis-sions like target search,positioning,and relay guidance.Structured on a dual-layer model,the algo-rithm's lower layer manages basic aircraft maneuvers for optimal flight,while the upper layer processes battlefield dynamics,issuing precise navigational commands.This approach enables accu-rate navigation and effective reconnaissance for lead aircraft.Notably,our Hierarchical Prior-augmented Proximal Policy Optimization(HPE-PPO)algorithm employs a prior-based training,prior-free execution method,accelerating target positioning training and ensuring robust target reacquisition.This paper also improves missile relay guidance and promotes the effective guidance.By integrating this system with a human-piloted lead aircraft,this paper proposes a potent solution for cooperative aerial warfare.Rigorous experiments demonstrate enhanced survivability and effi-ciency of loyal wingmen,marking a significant contribution to Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAV)formation control research.This advancement is poised to drive substantial interest and progress in the related technological fields.

    查看更多>>摘要:The surface integrity of metal micro-hole structures produced by electrochemical dis-charge machining is unsatisfactory owing to the insufficient reaction area and strength of electrol-ysis action.A novel ultrahigh-speed Rotary Electrochemical Discharge Machining(R-ECDM)using non-water-based electrolyte is proposed to improve surface integrity by changing the break-down medium of spark discharge and increasing the reaction area and strength of electrolysis.A mathematical model was developed to establish the relationship between rotational speed and forces acting on the bubble.Based on the magnitude of forces,controlling rotational speed changed the behavior and departure radius of bubbles on the cathode surface.High-speed photographs val-idate that,in the mathematical model,the number and departure radius of bubbles on the cathode surface gradually decrease with the increase of rotational speed.The experimental results show that the roughness(Ra)of the micro-hole sidewall decreases from 2.54 μm to 0.20 μm when the rota-tional speed increases from 500 r/min to 40000 r/min.The length loss and wear ratio of the cathode are only 9.75 μm and 6.5%,respectively.Finally,the micro-holes array with recast-free and surface roughness of 0.20 μm is fabricated,demonstrating that the proposed approach contributes to improving surface integrity of metal micro-holes.
