Research on equipment support forces configuration based on field theory

In this paper, the equipment support forces configuration based on field theory is analyzed considering the complexity and uncertainty of equipment support requirements and environment. Firstly, concept of equipment support field from the point of comparability is introduced. Secondly, the factors affecting the configuration of equipment support forces are analyzed. And a method about partitioning service range of equipment support force based on equipment support field potential is proposed. Finally, the optimum allocation of equipment support forces based on potential energy is studied. The allocation optimization process is presented, which is adaptive and flexible for the configuration of equipment support forces, and the optimum results can provide reference for command decision of equipment support.
