Evolving Geopolitics and Japan's Economic Security–Trade Nexus: ‘New Capitalism’ as a Balancing Act?

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amid intensifying geopolitical tensions, governments increasingly perceive economic interdependence as a strategic vulnerability. Japan, situated geopolitically between two great powers—the United States and China—attempts to navigate geopolitics by prioritising economic security.

Study of an adaptive bump control mechanism for shock wave/boundary layer interactions in supersonic flows

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters
The stability of supersonic inlets faces challenges due to various changes in flight conditions, and flow control methods that address shock wave/boundary layer interactions under only one set of conditions cannot meet developmental requirements.

A Proposal for Long-Term Missions of Small Lunar Rovers Using an MLI Curtain System

open access: yesInternational Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2019
This paper proposes a lunar night survival method for small rovers using an MLI (Multilayer Insulation) curtain system for long-term missions. Until recently, it was difficult to install RHU (Radioisotope Heating Units) or other temperature maintenance ...

The Unintended Consequences of German Deterrence

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Germany's evolving deterrence posture boils down to continued participation in NATO nuclear sharing and an ambitious conventional rearmament program. Due to its non‐nuclear status and a result of decades of underinvestment, Germany prioritizes modern conventional weapons.

Universities as the Next Counterintelligence Battleground in Geopolitical Contests

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Globally, universities are increasingly becoming the target of foreign national security actors, engaging in espionage, sabotage, foreign interference and intellectual property theft. Despite that, there has been no examination of the utilisation of counterintelligence approaches by universities to the threats they face from the subordination ...

A case study on the aerodynamic heating of a hypersonic vehicle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A Parabolised Navier-Stokes (PNS) flow solver is used to predict the aerodynamic heating on the surface of a hypersonic vehicle. This case study highlights some of the main heat flux sensitivies to various conditions for a full-scale vehicle and ...

Influence of Incident Shock on Fuel Mixing in Scramjet

open access: yesApplied Sciences
During the operation of hypersonic vehicles, a reciprocal coupling effect is manifested between the inlet and the combustion chamber. This results in an unavoidable non-uniformity of conditions at the combustion chamber’s entrance, which, in turn ...

Propagation of Elastic Waves in a One-Dimensional High Aspect Ratio Nanoridge Phononic Crystal

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2018
We investigate the propagation of elastic waves in a one-dimensional (1D) phononic crystal constituted by high aspect ratio epoxy nanoridges that have been deposited at the surface of a glass substrate.
