Davis SIMULATION-BASED ACQUISITION: AN IMPETUS FOR CHANGE
نویسندگان
چکیده
The military has recently introduced simulation-based acquisition where simulation technologies would be applied throughout all phases of system design, development, production and deployment. Originally, a four-phase approach was defined to reflect the sequential steps occurring from the initial conceptualization of the system to its eventual deployment. In this paper, the acquisition process is redefined as a collection of concurrent functions that may be iteratively implemented throughout the acquisition process. Potential applications for simulation in this enhanced acquisition process are discussed. In addition, the need for further simulation development is conveyed.

Performance Analysis of an Industrial Robot Under Uniform Temperature Change
The effect of temperature change on dynamic performances of an industrial robot with six axes of freedom is studied in this paper. In general, the strain and stress are produced not only by the external exciting force, but also by temperature change. The strain energy that is caused by temperatureThis paper describes how the temperature variation effects the dynamic performance of an indu...
متن کاملImprovement of thermal performance of a solar chimney based on a passive solar heating system with phase-change materials
Passive solar systems such as solar chimneys need solar radiation in order to work. Therefore, they cannot present stable natural ventilation when solar energy vanishes: to have a more robust and stable condition, solar energy should be stored during the day and released back during the night. Phase change materials can save additional thermal energy during the day and release it during the nig...

Phase change materials are substances that absorb and release thermal energy during the process of melting and freezing. This characteristic makes phase change material (PCM) a favourite choice to integrate it in buildings. Stephan problem including melting and solidification in PMC materials is an practical problem in many engineering processes. The position of the moving boundary, its veloci...
متن کاملGraph of Microworlds: A Framework for Assisting Progressive Knowledge Acquisition in Simulation-based Learning Environments
A framework for assisting a learner’s progressive knowledge acquisition in simulation-based learning environments (SLEs) is proposed. In SLE, usually a learner is first given a simple situation to acquire basic knowledge, then given more complicated situation to refine it. Such change of situation often causes the change of the model to be used. Our GMW (graph of microworlds) framework effifien...
