    To address the issue of guidance information extraction for strapdown phased array seekers with radome errors, a guidance information extraction method based on Kalman filtering is investigated. Firstly, a relative motion model is established in the body line-of-sight coordinate system, incorporating the radome error slope into the model, regarding the maneuvering targets, then the Singer maneuver model is employed, the radome error slope measured offline is treated as a known quantity, and observability analysis is implemented for the system of angle measurement observations undertaken, providing a theoretical basis for guidance information extraction in the presence of radome errors. Next, according to the isolation rising caused by gyroscope and beam control delays, a gyroscope delay compensation method is adopted to reduce the impact of airframe attitude disturbances. Finally, comparative simulations on isolation with and without gyroscope delay compensation for gyroscope and beam control delays are performed along with simulation validation in a high-altitude interception scenario against maneuvering targets. The simulation results demonstrate that the missile's isolation performance is improved after radome error compensation and a smaller miss distance is achieved in high-altitude interception of maneuvering targets.

    A specification and formal verification method is presented for dynamic failure modes in aerospace launch systems. The dynamic fault model designed through this approach enables real-time fault diagnosis systems in the aerospace field to possess diagnostic capabilities for complex and diverse fault characteristics. The dynamic fault models are represented by temporal facts, however, the complexity and abstract nature of temporal facts make them difficult to be validated through manual analysis or testing. By describing the semantics of temporal symptoms through temporal logic formulas, the correctness of the fault model is allowed to be verified through model checking methods. This verification process can be automated by using model checking tools. Moreover, the dynamic fault model does not require formal specifications, which allows domain experts to focus solely on domain-specific issues when constructing fault models. In aerospace engineering practice, the key properties of fault models through automated verification of model checking methods can provide domain experts with a reliable and verifiable mathematical approach for designing fault models.

Then, the iTransformer model is utilized to capture long-term dependencies within the time series and generate preliminary prediction results. Meanwhile, the XGBoost algorithm is introduced to achieve nonlinear modeling of the time series data. Finally, a threshold-based combination strategy is applied to the prediction results fusion of iTransformer and XGBoost, thereby determining the integrated output and improving overall forecasting performance. The model is validated by using photovoltaic power-related data, and the experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach achieves higher accuracy and stability in time series forecasting compared with traditional methods.

    To address the issue of low test coverage caused by implicit test scenarios such as missing boundary conditions and exception handling in software requirement documents, a code-enhanced requirement analysis method is proposed. The code-requirement associations are established through the proposed method which is based on semantic vector similarity and LLM verification, and five types of implicit test scenarios (boundary conditions, error handling, resource management, state transitions and performance stress) are extracted from function call chains to enhance requirement descriptions, and the enhanced requirements are decomposed into test function points and scenario-driven test cases are generated. The results of experiments on open-source projects show that compared with the baseline method by using LLM directly, the significant improvements are achieved by using CERA method in comprehensive test quality and test requirement coverage, which maintains higher API test accuracy. The effectiveness of three core components: scenario extraction, two-stage matching strategy and BERT-based rough screening is verified through ablation experiments.

    Software factories can serve as key platforms for the efficient development of aerospace software. The dynamic interaction and real-time update of their frontend components have direct influence on development efficiency and resource utilization. Traditional fixed-time-interval refresh mechanisms are liable to cause resource waste or data latency issues, while existing semi-automatic adjustment methods struggle to adapt to complex scenarios in software factories, such as multiple component types, cross-network deployment and multi-environment deployment. An adaptive refresh algorithm is proposed for frontend components. The change values can be obtained by component differential comparison, and a CVI (Component volatility index)is established, which integrates short-term change trends with long-term average levels to quantify the volatility of business data, and scenario-specific adjustment strategies are designed. This algorithm can adapt to scenarios like multi-team collaboration and high-frequency component reuse, which effectively balances resource consumption and response efficiency and thus provides support for the efficient operation of software factories.

    The selection of stable spin angular velocity for aircraft is focused in this paper. A method for choosing a stable angular velocity based on the spin stability criterion of aircraft is researched and proposed. Through theoretical analysis of the coning motion dynamics of spinning vehicles, the coupled effects of static stability moment, Magnus moment, and damping moment on the directional stability of the projectile body are fundamentally revealed. Based on a coning motion angular dynamics model under the constraints of deviations between the center of mass and the center of pressure, a system characteristic equation is established and the Routh-Hurwitz stability criterion is then employed to formulate a dynamic stability criterion. Furthermore, on the basis of the traditional three-degree-of-freedom trajectory model, the derived dynamic stability criterion for coning motion is used to deduce the feasible region for the spin angular velocity. A stable spin rate scheme for the aircraft is subsequently designed based on this region. Numerical simulation results demonstrate that the coning motion divergence is effectively suppressed by using proposed method that simultaneously reduces control energy consumption in the pitch/yaw channels. The achievement presented hereinabove provide a technical pathway to directional stable flight with low-energy-consumption attitude control by applying the spin characteristics of aircraft, which can offer significant theoretical and practical value.

    The hyperbolic orbit plane of the planetary gravity assist is determined by the entry speed and escape speed and based on two-body dynamics. The engagement and escape hyperbolic orbit's asymptotic angle are adjusted by the height at the near-planet point.

    To address the issue of control performance degradation in vehicles under structural disturbances, aerodynamic parameter variations, and external environmental interference, a hybrid control approach that integrates the deep deterministic policy gradient (DDPG) algorithm with a traditional PID controller is proposed in this paper. The initial stable control capability is provided by PID controller, while the reinforcement learning strategy enables online adaptive tuning of the flight controller. A nonlinear dynamic simulation platform is established, which is based on the vehicle model. Experimental results demonstrate that, in typical altitude step-response control tasks, the method shortenes the system response time by 62.8%, with overshoot and steady-state error maintained within 1%. Even under complex conditions involving ±20% parameter variations, the system still retains high-precision control. Compared with the conventional PID controller, the proposed method shows superior performance in terms of response speed, stability and adaptability and can be served as reference for prospects of engineering application.

    Regarding the aerodynamic-deformation-control multi-coupling problem encountered in high-speed morphing aircraft during dynamic morphing, a six-degree-of-freedom dynamic model is established and the aerodynamic moment coupling matrix is derived. The coupling strength of the roll, yaw and pitch channels is quantitatively analyzed, and the effect laws of angle of attack, Mach number, and deformation magnitude on coupling characteristics are systematically investigated. The results show that, for the given simulation case, the pitch channel is most significantly influenced by deformation, which presents a nonlinear increase followed by the growing deformation magnitude. The roll channel exhibits moderate coupling that is affected jointly by the angle of attack and Mach number, and the effect of coupling intensifies under low angle of attack and high Mach number conditions. In contrast, the yaw channel exhibits weak coupling among attitude angles, and that result shows that attitude angles coupling can be reasonably neglected in control design. Additionally, the analysis of control surface deflection coupling indicates that the roll and sideslip channels are decoupled, while the coupling degree in pitch control remains low and deformation has no significant impact on control coupling. These research results provide theoretical support for the decoupling control design and flight stability improvement of high-speed morphing aircraft.
