A fuzzy neural network controller with adaptive learning rates for nonlinear slider-crank mechanism

A fuzzy neural network (FNN) controller with adaptive learning rates is proposed to control a nonlinear mechanism system in this study. First, the network structure and the on-line learning algorithm of the FNN is described. To guarantee the convergence of the tracking error, analytical methods based on a discrete-type Lyapunov function are proposed to determine the adaptive learning rates of the FNN. Next, a slider-crank mechanism, which is driven by a permanent magnet (PM) synchronous motor, is studied as an example to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control technique; the FNN controller is implemented to control the slider position of the motor-slider-crank nonlinear mechanism. The robust control performance and learning ability of the proposed FNN controller with adaptive learning rates is demonstrated by simulation and experimental results.     

Education-Stratified Base-Rate Information on Discrepancy Scores Within and Between the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Third Edition and the Wechsler Memory Scale-Third Edition.

The Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale--Third Edition (WAIS-III; D. Wechsler, 1997a) and the Wechsler Memory Scale--Third Edition (WMS-III; D. Wechsler, 1997b) are 2 of the most frequently used measures in psychology and neuropsychology. To facilitate the diagnostic use of these measures in the clinical decision-making process, this article provides information on education-stratified, directional prevalence rates (i.e., base rates) of discrepancy scores between the major index scores for the WAIS-III, the WMS-III, and between the WAIS-III and WMS-III. To illustrate how such base-rate data can be clinically used, this article reviews the relative risk (i.e., odds ratio) of empirically defined "rare" cognitive deficits in 2 of the clinical samples presented in the WAIS-III--WMS-III Technical Manual (The Psychological Corporation, 1997).

Interactions Between Study Task, Study Time, and the Low-Frequency Hit Rate Advantage in Recognition Memory.

In studies of episodic recognition memory, low-frequency words (LF) have higher hit rates (HR) and lower false alarm rates (FAR) than do high-frequency words (HF), which is known as the mirror pattern. A few findings have suggested that requiring a task at study may reduce or eliminate the LF-HR advantage without altering the LF-FAR effect. Other studies have suggested that the size of the LF-HR advantage interacts with study time. To explore such findings more thoroughly and relate them to theory, the authors conducted 5 experiments, varying study time and study task. The full mirror pattern was found only in 2 cases: the standard condition requiring study for a later memory test and a condition requiring a judgment about unusual letters. The authors explain their findings in terms of the encoding of distinctive features and discuss the implications for current theories of recognition memory and the word frequency effect.

试件预埋法测试涂层剪切结合强度

涂层与基体的剪切结合强度是评定涂层质量的重要指标，也是进行制造工艺优化的依据和基础。目前，薄涂层剪切结合强度测试采用划痕法，厚涂层测试主要有粘结拉伸／剪切法和侧向挤压法。分析了上述方法的不足，提出了试件预埋测试涂层与基体剪切结合强度的方法。试验结果表明，用该方法所测得的试验数据分散性低于ASTMC633—79标准。     

Modelling and inference reveal nonlinear length-dependent suppression of somatic instability for small disease associated alleles in myotonic dystrophy type 1 and Huntington disease

More than 20 human genetic diseases are associated with inheriting an unstable expanded DNA simple sequence tandem repeat, for example, CTG (cytosine–thymine–guanine) repeats in myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) and CAG (cytosine–adenine–guanine) repeats in Huntington disease (HD). These sequences mutate by changing the number of repeats not just between generations, but also during the lifetime of affected individuals. Levels of somatic instability contribute to disease onset and progression but as changes are tissue-specific, age- and repeat length-dependent, interpretation of the level of somatic instability in an individual is confounded by these considerations. Mathematical models, fitted to CTG repeat length distributions derived from blood DNA, from a large cohort of DM1-affected or at risk individuals, have recently been used to quantify inherited repeat lengths and mutation rates. Taking into account age, the estimated mutation rates are lower than predicted among individuals with small alleles (inherited repeat lengths less than 100 CTGs), suggesting that these rates may be suppressed at the lower end of the disease-causing range. In this study, we propose that a length-specific effect operates within this range and tested this hypothesis using a model comparison approach. To calibrate the extended model, we used data derived from blood DNA from DM1 individuals and, for the first time, buccal DNA from HD individuals. In a novel application of this extended model, we identified individuals whose effective repeat length, with regards to somatic instability, is less than their actual repeat length. A plausible explanation for this distinction is that the expanded repeat tract is compromised by interruptions or other unusual features. We quantified effective length for a large cohort of DM1 individuals and showed that effective length better predicts age of onset than inherited repeat length, thus improving the genotype–phenotype correlation. Under the extended model, we removed some of the bias in mutation rates making them less length-dependent. Consequently, rates adjusted in this way will be better suited as quantitative traits to investigate cis- or trans-acting modifiers of somatic mosaicism, disease onset and progression.     

Application of thermophilic temperatures,low hydraulic retention times and high recycling of de-gassed effluent for higher biohydrogen production

This study investigated the external operational factors that would reduce the thermodynamic constrains preventing the simultaneous achievement of high hydrogen productivities (HPs) and hydrogen yields (HYs) in the bioreactor. At hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 1, the maximum HPs and HYs achieved was 35 L H₂/h and 3.91 mol H₂/mol glucose, respectively. At this stage, the bacterial granules occupied approximately 75% of the bioreactor and consisted of the settled biomass density of 40.6 g/L (settled granule bed height = 13.8 cm). The formation of bacterial granules improved the bioreactor performance and resulted in higher substrate conversion efficiency (95%), nutrient influent (7.5 L/h) and de-gassed effluent recycle rates (3.5 L/min). In conclusion, this study demonstrated that high nutrient influent and high de-gassed effluent recycle rates reduced the thermodynamic constrains preventing the achievement of higher H₂ productivities in the bioreactor system.     

Induced Activity and Dose Rate in a Fusion Reactor with Molybdenum Blanket Structure

Flow around a circular, square and trapezoid-type turbulence promoter was studied putting it in a center of channels or on a wall for low Reynolds number. Frequencies and power spectrum intensities of shedding vortices behind a promoter were measured.

Results show that vortices behind the trapezoid cylinder were the strongest and the widest. Flow characteristics behind the trapezoid cylinder were similar to that behind the circular cylinder. Vortices behind the square cylinder were the weakest and the narrowest. Adequate shape of turbulence promoter for augmentation of heat transfer was discussed.
