Reliability of structures in high dimensions, part I: algorithms and applications

The present paper is concerned with the estimation of structural reliability when a large number of random variables is present. A sampling technique which uses lines in order to probe the failure domain, is presented. The latter is employed in conjunction with a stepwise procedure which makes use of Markov Chains. The resulting algorithm exhibits accelerated convergence.     

根据过采样和求均值理论提高ADC 测量分辨率

8bit嵌入式单片机系统A／D变换的两个关键指标是有效分辨率和信噪比(SNR)。通过对过采样(Over sample)和求均值(Average)理论的分析，得出“对噪声源的特性为白噪声的信号，每增加一位分辨率可以通过用4倍的过采样频率进行采样来达到。而分辨率每增加一位将使SNR增加6dB”的结论。进而采用8bit徽处理器内嵌12bit ADC成功实现了16bit ADC的精度,即小数点后两位(25．99℃)的温度测量，和小数点后四位(2．4299 V)的直流电压测量．     

Locked discrete event systems: How to model and how to unlock

To model qualitative aspects of discrete event systems, i.e., the order of the events is of sole importance, we use a triple consisting of the set of all possible events (the alphabet), the set of all behavior (possible strings of events), and the set of all tasks (completed behavior). We use this view to model synchronous as well as asynchronous connection of systems. Moreover, it is easy to define notions like deadlock and livelock in this view. We give a method to construct a second system that, in connection with the original system, gets rid of its deadlock and/or livelock. A state-space representation is introduced. In this representation computations can be done effectively.     

一种便于观测的信号抽样及复原方法

利用倍频器，将重复频率与连续信号ｔ（ｔ）的频率相同的方波进行若干次倍频后，对连续信号进行抽样，从而获得离散的抽样信号ｆｓ（ｔ），再利用有源低通滤波器使其复原成连续信号ｆ（ｔ）。避免了一般抽样器不便于观测的缺点。     

The principle and fundamental characteristics of brushless three-phase synchronous induction motor with two stators

Brushless three-phase synchronous motor involving a rotating ac exciter on the same shaft as the motor and with the windings linked through a shaft-mounted rectifier is widely used as medium and large capacity machines. However, the motor needs to fit with damping windings for self-starting outside of the field winding in the rotor and needs to equip discharge resistance with complex electronic device to dispose of electromagnetic force induced in the field winding at starting. Therefore, the rotor structure is very complex, and there are disadvantages, especially for the robust and highly reliable motor that is desired. To solve the problem found in traditional motors, the authors proposed a brushless three-phase synchronous induction motor with two stators and one wound rotor. This problem is solved because the proposed motor is of two-stators structure: the rotor winding operates as a secondary winding of induction motor at starting and as the field winding at synchronous operation. The motor can self-start as a wound-rotor induction motor without external secondary resistance. Therefore, discharge resistance is not necessary; the starting equipment is very simple and the rotor structure is robust. It is possible to start with high torque. In this paper, the basic constitution of the proposed motor and the principles of operation are described in detail. The experimental results at starting and pulling into synchronism are shown for confirming the principles of operation and the experimental and numerical results of the starting characteristics. The load ones and the generating ones are shown and then the practical use of the proposed motor is confirmed.

Cyclic variations in the permeability of the cell wall of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

To study cell-cycle-related variations in wall permeability of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, two approaches were used. First, an asynchronous culture was fractionated by centrifugal elutriation into subpopulations containing cells of increasing size. The subpopulations represented different stages of the cell cycle as judged by light microscopy. Cell wall porosity increased when these subpopulations became enriched with budded cells. Secondly, synchronous cultures were obtained by releasing MATa cells from alpha-factor induced G1-arrest. These cultures grew synchronously for at least two generations. The cell wall porosity increased sharply in these cultures, shortly before buds became visible and was maximal during the initial stages of bud growth. It decreased in cells which had completed nuclear migration and before abscission of the bud had occurred. The porosity reached its lowest value during abscission and in unbudded cells. We examined the incorporation of mannoproteins into the wall during the cell cycle. SDS-extractable mannoproteins were incorporated continuously. However, the incorporation of glucanase-extractable mannoproteins, which are known to affect cell wall porosity, showed cyclic oscillations and reached its maximum after nuclear migration. This coincided with a rapid decrease in cell wall porosity, indicating that glucanase-extractable mannoproteins might contribute to this decrease.
