Biased PNG Law for Impact-Time Control

open access: yesTRANSACTIONS OF THE JAPAN SOCIETY FOR AERONAUTICAL AND SPACE SCIENCES, 2013
This paper proposes a biased proportional navigation guidance (PNG) law to control the impact time, that can be used for salvo attacks or cooperative missions of missiles. To derive the guidance command of the proposed law, we introduce a polynomial function of the command with two coefficients, one of which is to achieve zero miss-distance and the ...

Accessibility of Nonlinear Time-Delay Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A full characterization of accessibility is provided for nonlinear time-delay systems. It generalizes the rank condition which is known for weak controllability of linear time-delay systems, as well as the celebrated geometric approach for delay-free ...

Postural adjustments in catching: on the interplay between segment stabilization and equilibrium control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The purpose of this study was to investigate postural adjustments in one-handed ball catching. Specifically, the functional role of anticipatory postural adjustments (APA) during the initial arm raising and subsequent postural adjustments (SPA) for ...

Impact of ASOS Real-Time Quality Control on Convective Gust Extremes in the USA

open access: yesMeteorology, 2023
Most damage to buildings across the contiguous United States, in terms of number and total cost, is caused by gusts in convective events associated with thunderstorms. Their assessment relies on the integrity of meteorological observations.

Conscious monitoring and control (reinvestment) in surgical performance under pressure. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Research on intraoperative stressors has focused on external factors without considering individual differences in the ability to cope with stress. One individual difference that is implicated in adverse effects of stress on performance is "reinvestment,"

Impact of the Pilot Volume-Based Drug Purchasing Policy in China: Interrupted Time-Series Analysis with Controls

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2021
Centralizing procurement for prescription drugs has the potential to reduce drug spending by creating economies of scale and by improving purchasing power. In March 2019, the Chinese government launched a volume-based purchasing (VBP) pilot program using

A Geometry-Based Guidance Law to Control Impact Time and Angle under Variable Speeds

open access: yesMathematics, 2020
To provide a feasible solution for a variable speed unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to home on a target with impact time and angle constraints, this paper presents a novel geometry-based guidance law composed of trajectory reshaping and tracking.

Three-Dimensional Impact Time and Angle Control Guidance Based on MPSP

open access: yesInternational Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2019
A new nonlinear guidance law for air-to-ground missile cooperation attacks is proposed in this paper. This guidance law enables missiles with different initial conditions to attack targets simultaneously, and it can also precisely satisfy the terminal ...
