Improving the precision of measurements through application of chebyshev polynomials

It is shown that construction of the calibration characteristics of measuring devices may be reduced to expansion of these characteristics into Chebyshev polynomials. The coefficients of these polynomials (i.e., the parameters of the calibration characteristics) are determined by means of spectrum analyzers as the coefficients of the expansion into a Fourier series of the output signal of the device that arise when cosine signals arrive at the device 's input.Translated from Izmeritel'naya Tekhnika, No. 8, pp. 19–20, August, 1995.

Materials with a polymeric bitumen adhesive layer

The materials based on polyethylene and poly(vinylchloride) inner tapes and polymeric bitumen mastic with the trade mark TRANSKOR used for the anticorrosion protection of steel underground pipelines are described. For the capital repair of oil pipelines, a special construction solution is offered. This structure is composed of a polymeric bitumen primer, polymeric bitumen mastic, and heat-shrinkable film.     

Design for concurrent error detection and testability instorage/logic arrays

Storage/Logic Arrays (SLA's) represent a structured logic array approach to the design of VLSI sequential logic. Design for concurrent error detection and testability is complicated in these arrays by the presence of embedded memory elements and multiple levels of logic. A means of designing SLA's for ease of testability and concurrent error detection (CED) is provided in this paper. Test sets for static and dynamic CMOS circuits are described. Fault and error coverage is presented and performance and area costs are analyzed for example circuits. In addition, a means of implementing dynamic CMOS SLA's is presented and shown superior to previous NMOS, static CMOS, and dynamic CMOS approaches based upon power consumption and simplicity of design     

Development of methods of design,development, testing,and maintenance of real-time global space information-control systems

An approach to creation of real-time global space information-control systems referred to the class of complex systems based on methods of systems analysis, information technologies, and simulation, is considered. It is shown that objectives and tasks of any such system and requirements to it determine inevitable prior development of mathematical models of the system and of the environment realized on an imitation-simulation testbed, and a possibility of imitation testing with their help for more precise determination of characteristics of the system at all stages of its lifecycle. Particular examples of application of this approach are given.     

Preparation of monolithic ZnSxSe1−x layers via chemical vapor deposition followed by hot isostatic pressing

A process is described for the preparation of monolithic ZnS_xSe_1?x (0.1 < x < 0.6) plates uniform in composition. The effect of hot isostatic pressing on the optical and structural properties of zinc sulfoselenide is examined.
