Optimal control of the angle of attack of a hypersonic flight vehicle
Abstract
The paper presents the solution of the task of optimal control of the angle of attack of a hypersonic flight vehicle (HFV) with minimum fuel consumption. Optimal control programs and flight paths of HFV are determined using the method called «Pontryagin’s maximum principle». Optimal control of the angle of attack is expected to provide minimization of the HFV drag force in the supersonic speed range and the recoil from the dense atmosphere in the hypersonic speed range for the terminal flight path angle of over ten degrees.

Methods of optimal planning of using earth remote sensing space modules in the survey mode
Abstract
The paper is devoted to the optimization of using Earth remote sensing space modules of an orbital system in the survey overview mode for vast areas. It is suggested that the controlled area should be described by a set of non-overlapping Dirichlet domains – spherical polygons with equal circumradii. Each center of a Dirichlet domain (nodal point) is described at any point of time by the priority coefficient which depends on the importance of the area and the length of the time interval after the previous observation of the given point by one of the orbital system satellites. The target function in the optimization task of using Earth remote sensing space modules is the accumulative value of importance coefficients of the node points included in the plan of space modules application. An algorithm for solving the defined problem of combinatorial optimization is proposed taking into account the restrictions on power consumption and volumes of accumulated target information transferred to consumers.

Mathematical modeling of dynamic processes in a hydraulic drive with a discrete regulator of liquid flow
Abstract
The paper presents a mathematical model of a hydraulic drive with a discrete liquid flow regulator in the form of a switched inertial device that has a damper of working medium oscillations at the output. A hydraulic actuator loaded with mass was used as a final control element. Transition processes occurring when the regulator is activated are calculated by modeling the dynamic processes with the help of the Simulink software package. The research shows the impact of the valve operating frequency and pulse ratio on the dynamics and efficiency of the hydraulic drive. It could be concluded that the use of a hydraulic attenuator results in decreasing the level of pressure ripples at the inertial tube input.

Calculation of spatial distribution of energy of a complex radiator
Abstract
The paper presents the results of calculating spatial distribution of radiant energy from a radiator consisting of a cylindrical source of radiation and two disk reflectors, accordingly, with a diffuse character of radiation and reflection. A program of modeling optical parameters of complex reflectors is used as the basic tool of calculation. The basis for the procedure applied is the iterative-zonal method the essence of which consists in separating the radiating and reflecting systems as well as the light-trapping hemisphere into mentary platforms. The exchange of energy between the platforms is defined by means of a forward stroke beam method. The results of calculation are compared to the experimental data obtained in the course of the model light experiment.
