We present in this paper the general characteristics of a Radio and Plasma Wave experiment that we wish to submit in response to a possible Announcement of Opportunity for the Solar Orbiter payload. This experiment will provide measurements of both electrostatic and electromagnetic fields and waves in a broad frequency band, typically from a fraction of a Hertz up to a few tens of MHz, covering therefore all the scientific objectives described in the Solar Orbiter Science requirements document.

This paper presents the implementation of the hybrid spiral-dynamic bacteria-chemotaxis (HSDBC) approach to control two different configurations of a two-wheeled vehicle. The HSDBC is a combination of bacterial chemotaxis used in bacterial forging algorithm (BFA) and the spiral-dynamic algorithm (SDA). BFA provides a good exploration strategy due to the chemotaxis approach. However, it endures an oscillation problem near the end of the search process when using a large step size. Conversely; for a small step size, it affords better exploitation and accuracy with slower convergence. SDA provides better stability when approaching an optimum point and has faster convergence speed. This may cause the search agents to get trapped into local optima which results in low accurate solution. HSDBC exploits the chemotactic strategy of BFA and fitness accuracy and convergence speed of SDA so as to overcome the problems associated with both the SDA and BFA algorithms alone. The HSDBC thus developed is evaluated in optimizing the performance and energy consumption of two highly nonlinear platforms, namely single and double inverted pendulum-like vehicles with an extended rod. Comparative results with BFA and SDA show that the proposed algorithm is able to result in better performance of the highly nonlinear systems.

The 600-ship United States Navy offers private shipyards an unprecedented opportunity for overhaul of surface combatants with complex combat systems. Recognizing the new challenge associated with the overhaul of high technology combat systems in the private sector, the Navy in 1983 established the master ordnance repair (MOR) program. This program, a joint effort of the Naval Sea systems Command (NAVSEA) and the Shipbuilders Council of America (SCA), was designed to identify and qualify those companies and private shipyards technically capable of managing combat systems work and conducting combat system testing. Standard Item 009–67 describes the role of the MOR company in combat system overhaul. It defines terms that are important to understanding the item itself, and imposes upon the prime contractor an obligation to utilize the MOR subcontractor in a managerial capacity. Specific tasks are assigned to the MOR company in planning, production, and testing. Finally, this standard item describes to the Navy planner how to estimate the size of the MOR team appropriate to the work package, a feature that will ensure that combat system bids are tailored to a specific availability.

As part of a program to develop reverse osmosis (RO) desalination systems for shipboard freshwater production, the David Taylor Naval Ship Research and Development Center worked with the Naval Sea systems Command to install a 12,000 gal/day, two-stage RO plant aboard USS Fletcher (DD 992) in 1981. The first stage provides potable water (less than 500 parts/million total dissolved solids) for crew needs; the second stage provides high purity water (less than 2 parts/million of total dissolved solids) for boiler makeup. The plant has been producing acceptable water quality and quantity despite some materials related problems. The system design has proven to be well suited for minimizing manning and maintenance requirements. A 12,000 gal/day “ship quality” RO system is now under contract to meet Navy needs for a reliable, minimum weight and volume, low energy desalination plant for future surface ships. The preproduction plant will be required to meet stringent reliability requirements as well as shock, vibration, and noise specifications as part of the process for obtaining approval for full production. This paper describes the technology developments necessary to achieve the present naval performance levels and discusses plans for future applications.

Industrial processes require reliable, safe, and continuous operation of electric motors. However, unexpected failures result in production losses, high emergency maintenance costs, damage to other related machines and prolonged shutdowns. Therefore, the development of failure analysis, detection and prevention systems is of high importance for the industrial sector. The following paper proposes the generation of a model of a squirrel cage induction motor in the software tool Simulink capable of simulating: i) broken bars and broken rotor rings, and ii) failures in the bearings of the motor, based on the Motor Current Signature Analysis (MCSA) technique which is a non-invasive method. Moreover, the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) analysis is used to perform spectral investigation on the current to detect specific components that characterize faults in these conditions.

This paper presents the new laboratory test rig of the vertical axis flexible shaft supported by two active magnetic bearings. Behind the motivation of establishing this setup is the control of vibration modes of the flexible rotor - shaft assembly, while the rotational speed varies and the unbalanced mass on the whirling disc is introduced to the system. The proposed model is aimed to simulate real operation conditions of the rotating machinery with an applied external load, with a variable structure caused by a change of material properties of the rotor - shaft assembly, or due to a fault of some elements coupled with the rotor.
