This paper deals with the estimation of the trajectory of a target in constant velocity motion at an unknown constant depth, from measurements of conical angles supplied by a linear array. Sound emitted by the target does not necessarily navigate along a direct path toward the antenna, but can bounce off the sea bottom and/or off the surface. Observability is thoroughly analyzed to identify the ghost targets before proposing an efficient way to estimate the trajectory of the target of interest and of the ghost targets when they exist.

In industry when a link, crank, or other mechanical component is to be rotated from one rest position to another, it is necessary to establish appropriate functional relationships for angular displacement, velocity, and acceleration versus time such that the output motion satisfies certain kinematic and dynamic requirements. In the work presented here, a new type of motion is developed which has distinct advantages over constant velocity motion, constant acceleration motion, simple harmonic motion, cycloidal motion, and polynomial motions. The “variable-rate transymmetric” motion allows a designer to assign specific portions of the motion to be described by a linearly varying acceleration and other portions by a constant acceleration. As a result, the designer can decrease the power required, decrease the operating cost, and decrease dynamic responses such as shock, vibration, and shaking force.

I.ABSTRACTAn age-old hypothesis proposes that object motion across the receptor surface organizes sensory maps (Lotze, 19th century). Skin patches learn their relative positions from the order in which they are stimulated during motion events. We test this idea by reversing the local motion within a 6-point apparent motion sequence along the forearm. In the ‘Scrambled’ sequence, two middle locations were touched in reversed order (1-2-4-3-5-6, followed by 6-5-3-4-2-1, in a continuous loop). This created a local acceleration, a double U-turn, within an otherwise constant-velocity motion, as if the physical location of skin patches 3 and 4 was surgically swapped. The control condition, ‘Orderly’, proceeded at constant velocity at inter-stimulus onset interval (ISOI) of 120 ms. In the test, our twenty participants reported motion direction between the two middle tactors, presented on their own at 75, 120 or 190-ms ISOI. Results show degraded motion discrimination following exposure to Scrambled pattern: for the 120-ms test stimulus, it was 0.31 d’ weaker than following Orderly conditioning (p = .007). This is the aftereffect we expected; its maximal expression would be a complete reversal in perceived motion direction between locations 3 and 4 for either motion direction. We propose that the somatosensory system was beginning to ‘correct’ reversed local motion to uncurl and remove the U-turns that always occurred on the same part of the receptor surface. Such de-correlation between accelerations and their location on the sensory surface is one possible mechanism for organization of sensory maps.
