There is an appreciable amount of carbonaceous sedimentary phosphate deposits in the northern Africa and the Middle East which are expected to gain importance in the near future because of the depletion of the deposits in Florida. In many of the regions where phosphate deposits are found there is a shortage of fresh water, and sea is not very far. The use of sea water instead of fresh water in flotation of carbonaceous phosphate rock is successfully demonstrated. Thus an appreciable reduction in the operating cost and an ample amount of saving in the fresh water resources of the region is expected. 相似文献
We extend a dynamic approach of behavior generation to the representation of spatial information. Two levels of dynamics integrate dead-reckoning, dominant far from home bases, and piloting, dominant near home bases. When the view-based piloting system recognizes a home base, visual place information recalibrates the dead-reckoning system, inverting the hierarchical ordering of the two dynamic levels by time scale inversion. Reference views taken at discrete home bases are recognized invariantly under rotation of views. This process yields compass information. Continuous translational information is obtained as a neural place representation built from view correlations with a scattered set of local views. This self-calibrating cognitive map couples into a dynamics of heading direction integrating the behaviors of obstacle avoidance and target acquisition. Targets can be designated in terms of the cognitive map. We demonstrate the dynamical model in simulation. 相似文献
Organo-functional silanes which were able to form chemical bonds with kaolinite and could also have an affinity to the materials of concern here, were studied by the sol-gel process. Polymethacrylate with trialkoxy silyl functional groups were prepared, hydrolysed and co-condensed with kaolinite. The progress of the hydrolysis, which proceeded very slowly, was followed by Karl-Fischer titration. Thermal behavior was investigated by differential thermal analysis. The extent of the reaction leading to network formation was qualitatively followed by Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. Free-radical polymerization was carried out ultrasonically in the presence of a catalyst. Trimethoxy silane end-capped silane was found to be covalently bonded to kaolinite. The copolymers, with various amounts of kaolinite, were then hydrolysed and co-condensed in the presence of a catalyst to yield sol-gel materials which have a controllable combination of properties of both the polymer and kaolinite. 相似文献
A new, powerful method of analysis, involving the combined use of finite integral transform and finite element techniques, is presented for the solution of time dependent heat flow systems composed of many one-dimensional elements connected through the nodes. This method leads to an eigenvalue problem which is not of the conventional Sturm-Liouville type. A procedure for the determination of the eigenvalues is described. The solution obtained is in the form of an infinite series and contains quasi-steady and transient terms. The general solution obtained can be applied in the mathematical modelling of many engineering applications such as the determination of the penetration of the daily temperature cycle into buildings, the analysis of heat transfer in array of extended surfaces in compact heat exchangers, and many others. 相似文献
Light touch contact of a fingertip to a stationary surface provides orientation information that enhances control of upright stance. Slight changes in contact force at the fingertip lead to sensory cues about the direction of body sway, allowing attenuation of sway. In the present study, the coupling of postural sway to a moving contact surface was investigated in detail. Head, center of mass, and center of pressure displacement were measured as the contact surface moved rhythmically at 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8 Hz. Stimulus amplitude decreased with frequency to maintain peak velocity constant across frequency. Head and body sway were highly coherent with contact surface motion at all frequencies except 0.8 Hz, where a drop-off in coherence was observed. Mean frequency of head and body sway matched the driving frequency =0.4 Hz. At higher frequencies, non-1:1 coupling was evident. The phase of body sway relative to the touch plate averaged 20-30 degrees at 0.1-Hz drive and decreased approximately linearly to -130 degrees at 0.8-Hz drive. System gain was approximately 1 across frequency. The large phase lags observed cannot be accounted for with velocity coupling alone but indicate that body sway also was coupled to the position of the touch plate. Fitting of a linear second-order model to the data suggests that postural control parameters are not fixed but adapt to the moving frame of reference. Moreover, coupling to both position and velocity suggest that a spatial reference frame is defined by the somatosensory system. 相似文献
The detection of software vulnerabilities is considered a vital problem in the software security area for a long time. Nowadays, it is challenging to manage software security due to its increased complexity and diversity. So, vulnerability detection applications play a significant part in software development and maintenance. The ability of the forecasting techniques in vulnerability detection is still weak. Thus, one of the efficient defining features methods that have been used to determine the software vulnerabilities is the metaheuristic optimization methods. This paper proposes a novel software vulnerability prediction model based on using a deep learning method and SYMbiotic Genetic algorithm. We are first to apply Diploid Genetic algorithms with deep learning networks on software vulnerability prediction to the best of our knowledge. In this proposed method, a deep SYMbiotic-based genetic algorithm model (DNN-SYMbiotic GAs) is used by learning the phenotyping of dominant-features for software vulnerability prediction problems. The proposed method aimed at increasing the detection abilities of vulnerability patterns with vulnerable components in the software. Comprehensive experiments are conducted on several benchmark datasets; these datasets are taken from Drupal, Moodle, and PHPMyAdmin projects. The obtained results revealed that the proposed method (DNN-SYMbiotic GAs) enhanced vulnerability prediction, which reflects improving software quality prediction.
D.c. conductivities of polycrystalline monoazacrown ether-substituted phthalocyanines (M=2H, Ni, Zn, Pb, Cu) and diphthalocyanine (M=Lu) are measured as Au-MPc-Au sandwiches to be of the order 10–10–10–12 S m–1. Chemical doping with oxidants (e.g. NOBF4) and enhancing the stacking of planar phthalocyanine moieties through the formation of alkali metal adducts with sodium and potassium ions leads to increase in conductivity of the order 101–102. The low conductivity and the diamagneticity of the bis(phthalocyaninato)-lutetium can be ascribed to the lack of radical nature in LuH(Pc)2. For the a.c. conductivities, lead and lutetium complexes form a group with higher conductivities and the rest show lower conductivity. The conduction activation energies calculated from Arrhenius plots exhibit the lowest value (0.40 eV) for the lutetium compound.Part of this work was presented at NATO-ASI on Semiconductor Materials and Processing Technologies, Erice, Sicily, 1–13 July 1991. 相似文献
