Terminal Angle Constraint

This paper introduces a fast fixed-time guidance law with terminal angle constraint for interception of maneuvering targets, which is based on the structure of singularity-free fast terminal sliding mode and the fixed-time stability theory. Different from the finite-time stability, the fixed-time stability can predefine the maximum stabilization time of system states which is independent on the initial value of system states. Under the proposed guidance law, the guidance system can achieve stabilization within settling time which decides by the parameters of controller. In addition, an adaptive law is proposed which alleviate the chattering of sliding mode and smooths the guidance law. Meanwhile, the proof of the sliding mode manifold and system states fixed-time convergence is given by Lyapunov stability theory. Finally, numerical simulations demonstrate the performance of the proposed guidance law is satisfying.

The Brain

A virgin female of the noctuid moth, a kind of noctuidae that eats cucumis, etc. performs calling at a fixed time of each day, depending on the length of a day. The photoreceptors that induce this calling are located around the neurosecretory cells (NSC) in the central portion of the protocerebrum. Besides, it is considered that the female’s biological clock is located also in the cerebral lobe. In order to elucidate the calling and the function of the biological clock, it is necessary to clarify the basic structure of the brain. The observation results of 12 or 30 day-old noctuid moths showed that their brains are basically composed of an outer and an inner portion-neural lamella (about 2.5 μm) of collagen fibril and perineurium cells. Furthermore, nerve cells surround the cerebral lobes, in which NSCs, mushroom bodies, and central nerve cells, etc. are observed. The NSCs are large-sized (20 to 30 μm dia.) cells, which are located in the pons intercerebralis of the head section and at the rear of the mushroom body (two each on the right and left). Furthermore, the cells were classified into two types: one having many free ribosoms 15 to 20 nm in dia. and the other having granules 150 to 350 nm in dia. (Fig. 1).
