We report a new type of ultraviolet(UV) CCD optical multi-channel analyzer and its application for detecting solar ultraviolet irradiance spectrum. Primary analysis on detection results of solar UV irradiance spectrum indicates that in the morning and in the afternoon the irradiance of solar UV is smaller than that at noon, and reverse correlates to the change of solar zenith angle (SZA). Radiation of different bands are different: long-wave radiation is generally higher than short wave radiation. Solar UV radiation spectral intensity is bated by the effects of clouds, and the attenuation depends on the wavelength and decreases with decreasing wavelength. UV-CCD optical multi-channel analyzer can be used to monitor the total amount of solar UV radiation, and to analyze the amount of radiation at all wavelengths and the relative charges of radiation at different wavelengths in different atmospheric conditions.

    Spectra interpolation is used to analyze differential optical absorption spectroscopy (DOAS) spectra, which can greatly decrease the absorption elimination error of the high concentration species and achieve accurate measurements of trace compounds including NO3, glyoxal ((CHO)2 ), mono-aromatic hydrocarbons (MAHC), et al by DOAS. The changes of high pressure Xe arc lamp (called Xe lamp for short) structure, resulting from the changes of temperature and pressure, are simulated accurately, which enables the analysis of indicator of atmospheric photochemical reaction -(CHO)2 without the interference of Xe lamp structure (more than one hundred times higher compared with (CHO)2) near 450 nm. The mass dependent absorption structure of H2O is simulated and the accurate measurement of the “cleaner” of nocturnal atmospheric pollutant -NO3 is achieved without the interference of nonlinear absorption of H2O near 662 nm and 623 nm. The mass dependent absorption of O2 and the temperature dependent absorption of O3 are simulated, which enables the accurate measurement of MAHC in the range of 250~285 nm free of the effect of much higher absorption of O2 and O3.

    A general expression of discretional target position with its correlation peaks in correlation output is proposed based on the theory of joint transform correlation (JTC), and the single and multiple targets correlation experiments are also simulated. The characteristic of correlation peaks variation of moving targets is analyzed. The results show that dissymmetrical correlation peaks are always symmetric at two sides of coordinate centre, and the connections of correlation peaks with coordinate centre are parallel with the input target center with reference target centre. The distance of correlation peaks with coordinate center equals the input target with reference target. In addition, the correlation peaks change with the targets moving, and the value of coordinate changes are also equal.

    The fly′s eye integrator is widely applied in homogeneous illuminance, but its performance decreases dramatically when the aberration of the system is large. In order to study the effects of aberration, the fly′s eye integrator is supposed to be composed by some certain sub-imaging-systems. The point diagram of grim point, distortion and the departure of sub-image location caused by aberration can influence the performance of fly′s eye integrator seriously, but the point diagram of inner points can improve the performance to some extent. At last, an example, which optimizes a fly′s eye integrator made up of two ordinary lens rather than Fourier lens by limiting the derivative of aberration, is given and validates the effectiveness of the imaging analysis and its result.

    In order to overcome the technical bottleneck which limits the increase of sensitivity of the low light level (LLL) image intensifier and the infrared imaging device, the photon counting technique is applied to the LLL imaging system, which can deduce the characteristics of the objects according to the number of the photon that the detector outputs. The avalanche photodiode (APD) is used for detector and is operated in Geiger mode. It is proved that APD has high sensitivity in the order of a single photon by analyses and calculations. Under the clear starlight night sky illumination, the spectral response characterization of the APD with green vegetation, concrete, and dark green paint is studied. The spectral matching factors are 0.4972, 0.5021 and 0.4979, respectively. The utilization rate of the infrared radiation highly increases in the night sky. These results can be used to provide the theoretical basis for the night vision system construction based on APD.

    The angles of optical axis in the stripmap synthetic aperture ladar(SAL) system include two aspects: the pitch angle and the horizontal angle. The horizontal angle leads to the fact that the antenna aperture moving axis is not parallel to the azimuth moving direction which causes the image distortion. Formulas are deduced theoretically on the relationship between two-axis angle and distortion, and experiments are carried out to prove this situation. The results show that the image distortion is severe in the actual stripmap SAL system. The way on image correction eliminates this coupling on range and azimuth direction, and is necessary for the complex two-dimensional imaging.

Aiming at some diesel engine, heat transfer rule for cylinder head is analyzed. Combined with three-dimension temperature distribution, areas in which flaws can be produced are studied and flaw inner cylinder head is machined. Testing platform on detecting flaw is set up and temperature tests on cylinder head are developed. Results show that when there is a flaw inner cylinder head, maximum temperature value of outer surface hindered by flaw will be decreased. On other surfaces, maximum temperature value will be increased, which is accordant with actual heat transfer rule.

    Fabry-Perot (F-P) interferometry can be applied to velocity history measurement for high-speed moving objects by using the Doppler effect. A F-P interferometer system has been developed with nanosecond temporal resolution and velocity resolution of 10 m/s. The system consists of a laser, a fiber probe, a F-P interferometer cavity and a streak camera. The fringe constant of the F-P interferometer is 1000 m/s. The interferometer cavity is a solid etalon, so the interference fringes need not to be adjusted and moreover greatly simplified the experiment operations. By using the system, the velocity measurements for explosive-driven flyers and electric-gun driven flyers are completed. The measured velocity of the explosive-driven flyer reaches 2 km/s, and the electric-gun driven flyer is 5 km/s.

    One of key technologies for the manufacture of membrane mirrors is its surface shape control. The structure and function of a surface shape control system which is developed by our laboratory based on fuzzy logic control theory are described in detail. The surface shape control of membrane mirror under uniform load previously has been theoretically analyzed and simulated. Here a non-uniform load method is analyzed and simulated for the surface shape control of a membrane mirror with 300 mm aperture and different F numbers. The results of the simulation show that the RMS wavefront error of the membrane mirror under non-uniform load can be controlled and improved in two orders of magnitude compared with that of the membrane mirror under uniform load.

    Because physical camera parameters do not exist independently in equation but couple to each other, the camera parameters obtained by existing calibration methods do not actually match their physical meanings. Decomposing parameter directly from projection matrix can cause considerable error. To cope with this problem, a stepwise method for camera calibration is proposed. Since pose estimation is sensitive to equivalent focal length, equivalent focal length can be calibrated based on pose estimation variance; then principal point is calibrated by homographic constraint; extrinsic camera parameters are calibrated by orthogonal iteration algorithm; finally the distortion coefficients are calculated. Experiments have proved this method′s correctness and high precision, and show that this method can effectively avoid coupling of camera parameters, in which way each parameter can match its own physical meaning pretty well, and can be used independently.

    To reduce weight and improve strength in the aerospace industry, composite structure has gained popularity as a replacement for conventional materials and structures, such as adhesive bonding and honeycomb structure. However, the adhesive bonding process is more susceptible to quality variations during manufacturing than traditional joining methods. Shearography, lock-in thermography and pulsed thermography are widely used in the aerospace industry. The three techniques are often used to inspect for various aerospace applications, such as delaminations in composite structures or skin-to-core disbands in honeycomb structures. A study of detection honeycomb structures using the three non-destructive testing (NDT) methods is presented and their potential for inspecting disbanding are demonstrated. The advantages and disadvantages of these three techniques over other NDT methods are also outlined. Rusult shows that all the three NDT methed are available to measuring the bonding process, and the shearography is the best.
