This article is devoted to the analysis of numerical study results of printed frequency selective surfaces scattering characteristics. It has been shown that these frequency selective surfaces may be used as antenna radomes. Numerical results have been obtained by full-wave simulation of frequency-selective surfaces with dielectric covers. The numerical research results of the scattering characteristics of printed frequency selective surfaces as antenna radomes based on metal-dielectric gratings and thick perforated screens have been presented. A comprehensive numerical study of microwave frequency selective surfaces based on multi-element multilayer printed reflectarrays and thick perforated screens has been carried out. Constructive solutions for metal-dielectric structures in integral design, realizing the functions of frequency selective surfaces, have been found. These solutions are based on performed numerical studies. The problems of constructive implementation of multilayer planar spatially selective as frequency selective surfaces have been considered. These frequency selective surfaces are integrated into radiation systems of modern multi-element printed phased arrays. The problems connected with creation of such arrays have been also considered. The numerical simulation results for frequency selective surfaces based on metal gratings with dielectric covers have been obtained. These results can be used to select the most rational options for the topology of metal-dielectric gratings. Such solutions may be useful for design of multifunctional radomes in microwave antenna systems. Based on the obtained numerical data, the possibilities of using flat gratings as frequency selective surfaces in the composition of antenna radomes have been considered. The spatial frequency-selective structures proposed in this work are performed as multi-planar printed gratings. These gratings are designed to ensure electromagnetic compatibility of closely spaced radio electronic sets. These radio electronic sets operate in close frequency ranges. They contain antenna arrays. These arrays are placed under the antenna radomes.

Numerical results are obtained by full-wave simulation of frequency-selective surfaces with dielectric covers. The numerical research results of the scattering characteristics of a printed angular filter as antenna radome based on metal-dielectric gratings are presented. A comprehensive numerical study of microwave angular filters based on multi-element multilayer printed reflect arrays has been carried out. Constructive solutions for metal-dielectric structures in integral design, realizing the functions of angular filters, are found. These solutions are based on performed numerical studies. The problems of constructive implementation of multilayer planar spatially selective as angular filters are considered. These angular filters are integrated into the radiators and feeders of modern multi-element printed phased arrays. The problems connected with creation of such arrays are also considered. The numerical simulation results for angular filters based on metal gratings with dielectric covers are obtained.

These gratings are designed to ensure electromagnetic compatibility of closely spaced radio electronic sets. These radio electronic sets operate in close frequency ranges. They contain antenna arrays. These arrays are placed under the antenna radomes. At the same time, the installation of angular filters in the antenna radomes makes it possible to eliminate the appearance of unwanted grating lobes in the radiation patterns of sparse antenna arrays of promising radioengineering sets at microwaves.

In this current work, a new methodology based on the square of mode shape curvature (SMSC) is presented that relates the mode shapes and its curvature changes before and after the damage for localization and sizing of the surface crack in plate-type structures. The significance of this method is it has the capability to portray accurate shape and exact location of the surface crack in a plate-like structure which are related to low and high elastic modes on dense and coarse measurement grids. The efficiency of the proposed SMSC is examined using experimental and numerical data acquired from modal analysis on the aluminum plate containing single and multi-surface cracks with a fixed-free condition using non-contact measurement a scanning laser vibrometer and on simple finite element plate model. As evidence of experimental and numerical study results, highly accurate crack characterization has been attained through the proposed method. In implementing this method, only a few modes of the structure are required. Further, the impact of the mode order on the effectiveness of crack detection, boundary distortion treatment, and grid density analysis was also performed by the proposed method.

AbstractThe temperature rise of photovoltaic’s cells deteriorates its conversion efficiency. The use of a phase change material (PCM) layer linked to a curved photovoltaic PV panel so-called PV-mirror to control its temperature elevation has been numerically studied. This numerical study was carried out to explore the effect of inner fins length on the thermal and electrical improvement of curved PV panel. So a numerical model of heat transfer with solid-liquid phase change has been developed to solve the Navier–Stokes and energy equations. The predicted results are validated with an available experimental and numerical data. Results shows that the use of fins improve the thermal load distribution presented on the upper front of PV/PCM system and maintained it under 42°C compared with another without fins and enhance the PV cells efficiency by more than 2%.

Modern radio-electronic systems (RES) of weapons and military equipment (WME) are more functionally and structurally sophisticated that results in high requirements for their effective operation organisation. Insufficient level of technical knowledge among RES WME operational and maintenance personnel often results in increase of operability restoration period of these items in case of failures. This, in its turn, results in decrease of the readiness level of the RES WME pieces. In order to reduce duration of the RES WME restoring repair in case of failures, methods and tools of the auto-mated informational support of the operational and maintenance personnel activities related to the WME operation and restoring repair are developed. This article is devoted to development of a model of the automated informational support of the personnel activities in order to find rational options of the RES WME maintenance and repair organisation. The study results related to feasibility evaluation and development of the automated technical operation system model for the radio-electronic equipment incorporated in the AD WME are provided.
