Aerial Systems

Unmanned aerial systems (UAS) has many advantages in the fields of SURVAILLANCE and disaster management compared to space-borne observation, manned missions and in situ methods. The reasons include cost effectiveness, operational safety, and mission efficiency. This has in turn underlined the importance of UAS technology and highlighted a growing need in a more robust and efficient unmanned aerial vehicles to serve specific needs in SURVAILLANCE and disaster management. This paper first gives an overview on the framework for SURVAILLANCE particularly in applications of border control and disaster management and lists several phases of SURVAILLANCE and service descriptions. Based on this overview and SURVAILLANCE phases descriptions, we show the areas and services in which UAS can have significant advantage over traditional methods.

Shape And Size

The steam turbine rotors represent large components both in radial and axial directions. Their local properties generally differ from one forging to another, or if we compare head and bottom parts of the original ingot, or central and circumferential localities of one rotor body respectively, or if we compare the properties of separate discs e.g. in the case of welded rotors. These differences stem from both even slight changes in the chemical composition (of separate heats or even within one ingot) and thermo-mechanical treatment and in the differences in technology with respect to the real shape and size of the forgings in question. In the paper, the consequences of the differences in fracture toughness characteristics in various rotor localities are discussed with respect to the rotors operational safety taking into account the existence of cracks and material degradation.
