Dyda, Elena B. Osokina, Elena P. Chinchukova Admiral Nevelskoy Maritime State University, Vladivostok Abstract: The base for design of the ship control system lies in its mathematical model. There are known different linear and nonlinear models of the ship’s movement direction. The application of linear models is explained by the simplicity of their practical usage. However, nonlinear models are often more adequate to show a ship dynamics and, as result, provide more accurate design of the ship control system. In this article there are proposed to use the power series as functions of angular velocity for describing a nonlinearity which presents viscous friction forces moments. Main idea includes the derivation of algorithm to adjust coefficients of power series that describe nonlinearity of ship’s model. Theoretical base of the research is a method of speed gradient. To illustrate an approach there are given examples with four linear and nonlinear ship models. Keywords: ship control, linear model, nonlinear model, parameter identification, speed gradient method, adaptation algorithms, power series, numerical simulation The article is devoted to the problem of parameter identification of ship dynamics. Decision of this problem is important, in particular, for design of ship course control systems. Mathematical model of ship movement can be presented as a set of nonlinear nigh order differ rental equations. Direct usage of such common math model is a complicated problem.To solve particular practical problems, simplified linear and nonlinear models are often used. Obviously, linear ship dynamics models are more simplified than nonlinear ones, but the latter models can be more adequate to solve private tasks. In the paper, both versions of mathematical ship 4 models are used for to derive algorithms of parameter identification [1, 2, 3. 4]. Consider a simple nonlinear ship model of 1st order structural scheme of the model is given on Fig1. here f (.) is nonlinear function presenting viscous friction moments [1, 5]. Fig. 1. Nonlinear first order ship model. Simplified model of ship dynamic can be written in the following form: , (1) where: B – constant δ –rudder angle ɷ – Angular velocity To solve the identification problem, so called tuning models with structure, which is analogous to an object of identification, have been applied. , (2) Where ɷ m – the model output; fm(ɷ ), Bm – the model function and parameter; V – the additional function to improve an identification quality, V = νsign, ν – const, e = x – xm – the difference between an object output and that of its tuning model. Present a function f(ɷ ) in the form of power series: (3) Where n – is a number of series members taken into account. Analogously, present a function fm(ɷ m) of tuning model (4) Speed gradient method has been taken for identification [4, 6, 7] 5 Choose an aim function in the form: (5) To determine tuning law for adjustable parameters Am, Bm, calculate a time derivative of aim function taking into consideration equations (1), (2). Following to the scheme of speed gradient method, find the tuning law for parameter adjusting (6) Where constant γ defines a tuning speed. Derived algorithm of identification was checked by numerical simulations in MATLAB. Computer experiments were carried out for a few cases. Case 1. Consider a nonlinear function in the form: , (7) Coefficients and parameter B are taken as following: A1=2, A2=0, A3=0. B=6. As a result, one has a liner ship model known as so called Nomoto’s model. Results of identification according to derived algorithm are given on Fig. 2. As seen, coefficients of tuning model tend to that of a ship model, i.e., the derived algorithm demonstrates an identification property. Fig.2. First order linear system identification: parameters Аm and Bm Case 2. Suppose now that nonlinear function of ship model is presented as (8) 6 So, series’ coefficients and parameter B are taken as A1=0, A2=0, A3=2, B=6. Simulation result presented on Fig.3 confirms that identification algorithm is effective for essentially nonlinear ship model. Fig.3. Parameters identification: сase 2 Series coefficients Am1, Am2, Am3 and parameter Bm evaluated by identification scheme asymptotically tend to their reel values. Case 3. Identification results for ship model with nonlinear function (9) with A1 = 3, A2 = 0, A3 = 1, B = 6 are presented on Fig. 4. Again, one can see that derived identification algorithm successfully works. Fig.4. Parameters identification: сase 3 The approach used above to identification algorithm design can be applied to a ship model of higher order [4, 8, 9] Fig.5 demonstrates successful identification of matrix coefficient for Nomoto’s ship model of second order. 7 Fig.5. Matrix parameters identification: сase 4 Concluding remarks In the article, an identification algorithm based on speed gradient method has been developed. It was applied to linear and nonlinear ship model. To present nonlinearity of ship model, approach using power series were proposed. Numerical simulations have confirmed an effectiveness

  • Sakhalin Island: Nivkh
    70 Chapter 3 Chapter 3 Sakhalin Island: Nivkh The Nivkh (or Gilyak in older literature) have traditionally inhabited the north- ern half of Sakhalin Island and adjacent regions of the mainland. They are relatively homogeneous in the cultural sense; their differences are mainly based on local adaptations to geographic environments, and the two distinct dialects, Sakhalin and mainland, are mutually intelligible. Their ethnic compo- sition is more homogeneous than that of their Tungusic-speaking Amur neigh- bors as it consists of a large core of kin groups of Nivkh origin and a minority of lineages that trace their descent to non-Nivkh ethnic ancestors, mainly those of Amur groups and Ainu. Nivkh culture, with its emphasis on sedentary fishing, is to a large extent analogous to those of their Amur and Ainu neighbors; however, the specialized maritime hunting of the coastal Nivkh was of a significance equal to fishing, and their sea-mammal hunting technology as well as the belief system empha- sizing marine animal cults connect the Nivkh with North Pacific coastal cul- tures of both sides of the Bering Strait, and archaeologically, with the maritime Okhotsk culture of the southern Sea of Okhotsk and the Old Koryak culture of northern Sea of Okhotsk. Other traits that distinguish the traditional Nivkh culture from their neighbors are aspects of their non-material culture such as corpse disposal by cremation and the alliance of three lineage units based on asymmetric connubium that contrasts with the reciprocal connubium charac- teristic for the mainland Tungus society as well as for the Amur ethnic com- plex.

Bottom pressure gauges were installed in several harbors of Shikotan Island, near Cape Lovtsov (north-eastern end of Kunashir Island), in the Kitoviy Bay (Iturup Island) and near Cape Van-der-Lind (Urup Island). Sakhalin Tsunami Center has a cable telemetry tsunami warning station in the Severo-Kurilsk (Paramushir Island). Two tsunamis - a remote Samoa (September 30) and nearby Simushir tsunami (January 15) were recorded by different gauges in the area of South Kuril Islands and by telemetry station in Severo-Kurilsk. To examine spectral properties of long wave oscillations at each gauge, we calculated power spectral estimation using two different data segments (both 1 day length): the period preceding the tsunami event, we identified as “normal” and selected for analysis of the background signal; the “tsunami period” included tsunami caused oscillations.

There are only four lidar stations in the world, which have almost continuously performed observations of the stratospheric aerosol layer (SAL) state for over the last 30 years. The longest time series of the SAL lidar measurements have been accumulated at the Mauna Loa Observatory (Hawaii) since 1973, the NASA Langley Research Center (Hampton, Virginia) since 1974, and Garmisch-Partenkirchen (Germany) since 1976. The fourth lidar station we present started to perform routine observations of the SAL parameters in Tomsk (56.48 N, 85.05 E, Western Siberia, Russia) in 1986. In this 15 paper, we mainly focus on and discuss the stratospheric background period from 2000 to 2005 and the causes of the SAL perturbations over Tomsk in the 2006–2015 period. During the last decade, volcanic aerosol plumes from tropical Mt. Manam, Soufriere Hills, Rabaul, Merapi, Nabro, and Kelut, and extratropical (northern) Mt.

  • Nivkhi on the Social Organization of the Gilyak, 1995 B Y Bruce Grant
    AF T E RW O R D: AF T E R L I V E S A N D AF T E RW O R L D S Nivkhi on The Social Organization of the Gilyak, 1995 B Y Bruce Grant B Y T H E A D V E N T of World War II, the lives of most Gilyaks had changed dramati- cally. The Soviet government officially recognized the use of their self-designation, “Nivkh,” and in the Soviet drive to create proletarians from primitives, the idea of “Gilyak” came to take on pejorative connotations of all things past. That the gov- er nment embraced the name “Nivkh” as a hallmark of native self-determination, but simultaneously forbade Nivkhi to speak the Nivkh language, was only one of many contradictions between tradition and modernity that their belonging in the new Sovi- et Union had set before them.1 For the new Nivkh society, one of the greatest legacies of the post-World War II period was the widespread integration of women into the workforce. Before the war, efforts to recruit women into Sovietized native institutions such as clan councils foundered on the reluctance of Nivkh men and women alike. With the conscription of Nivkh and Russian men to the war front, women all over Sakhalin and the Amur had to take the work of the fishing collectives into their own hands. During my own fieldwork on Sakhalin in 1990, one woman explained to me, I was 10 when the war started. I had only been in school a year but our mother had no money, so I started working on the kolkhoz.

    How to use the Atlas The Atlas has two map sections The Main Section shows the location of Russia’s intact forest landscapes. The Thematic Section shows their tree species composition in two different ways. The legend is placed at the beginning of each set of maps. If you are looking for an area near a town or village Go to the Index on page 153 and find the alphabetical list of settlements by English name. The Cyrillic name is also given along with the map page number and coordinates (latitude and longitude) where it can be found. Capitals of regions and districts (raiony) are listed along with many other settlements, but only in the vicinity of intact forest landscapes. The reader should not expect to see a city like Moscow listed. Villages that are insufficiently known or very small are not listed and appear on the map only as nameless dots. If you are looking for an administrative region Go to the Index on page 185 and find the list of administrative regions. The numbers refer to the map on the inside back cover. Having found the region on this map, the reader will know which index map to use to search further. If you are looking for the big picture Go to the overview map on page 35. This map shows all of Russia’s Intact Forest Landscapes, along with the borders and Roman numerals of the five index maps.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the (i) conservation status, harvesting and trade levels of R. sachalinensis, (ii) current state of experimental and commercial farming, and (iii) evidence of substitution or interchangeable use of R. sachalinensis with other Rhodiola species. We assessed data from multiple disciplines and languages including studies on R. sachalinensis biology and ecology, information on impacts of wild harvest, management measures, and current levels of cultivation. Our assessment shows that while R. sachalinensis is increasingly produced by cultivation, wild populations are decreasing and face multiple threats. These include (a) habitat loss including due to oil and gas infrastructure development on Sakhalin island, (b) climate change impacts on alpine ecosystems, and (c) overexploitation of wild plants to satisfy the growing commercial demand.
