Global practical tracking of a class of nonlinear systems by output feedback

In this paper we address the practical tracking problem for a class of nonlinear systems by dynamic output feedback control. Unlike most of the existing results where the unmeasurable states in the nonlinear vector field can only grow linearly, we allow higher-order growth of unmeasurable states. The proposed controller makes the tracking error arbitrarily small and demonstrates nice properties such as robustness to disturbances and universal property to reference signals.     

Studies of substrate specificities of lipases from different sources

Although lipases are widely applied in a wide variety of reactions, available information on the factors that are responsible for the substrate specificities of lipases from different sources is scarce. In this paper, nine lipase‐producing microorganism strains were isolated from oil‐containing samples. The properties of these enzymes, including pH optima, temperature optima, thermal stability, and pH stability, vary significantly with the different sources from which these lipases were isolated. The substrate specificities of the nine lipases, including fatty acid and positional specificities, were also studied. The fatty acid specificities of the nine lipases were observably different toward 15 substrates with different carbon chain lengths, different saturation degrees and different side chains. The lipases from S₃ Penicillium citrinum (PCL), MJ₁ Aspergillus niger (ANL), MJ₂ Aspergillus oryzae (AOL), YM Bacillus coughing (BCL), S₉ Geotrichum candidum (GCL), and S₁₁ Candida lypolytica (CLL) showed the strongest specificities to short‐chain esters, and the other lipases showed strong selectivity for medium‐ or long‐chain and branched esters. The positional specificities were examined by analyzing the hydrolytic products of triolein catalyzed by the nine lipases, using TLC. The lipases can be mainly classified into two groups by their specificities for the ester bond at position 2 of triglycerides; one group can selectively hydrolyze the ester bond at position 2 of the triglycerides, the other group cannot. All these nine lipases were divided into four groups by hierarchical clustering analysis on the basis of the results of fatty acid and positional specificities.     

A note on global output regulation of nonlinear systems in the output feedback form

This note shows how the adaptive control method developed recently for nonlinearly parameterized systems can be used to solve the problem of global output regulation, for nonlinear systems in the so-called output-feedback form with unknown parameters and exogenous signals belonging to a compact set whose bound is also unknown.     

对油田企业建设和执行内部控制体系的思考

内部控制是一个由企业董事会、管理层和其他员工实施的,为实现企业经营的效果和效率目标、财务报告的可靠性目标和舍规性目标提供合理保证的过程。有效地建设以及有力地执行内控制度,对石油企业发展过程中有效地避免风险的发生起着非常重要的作用。但是,由于种种原因,油田企业目前的内部控制体系还不成熟,还存在着一些建设上的不足和执行上的不力。同时,企业员工普遍对内部控制还存在着一些认识误区,这就要求我们必须努力学习内控知识,加强内控知识培训,充分调动企业全体员工建设和雏护内部控制体系的积极性和自觉性,使得内控可以真正发挥其防范风险的作用。     

Inhibition of natural killer cell cytotoxicity by cell growth-related molecules

Certain MHC class I molecules on target cells are known to inhibit the cytotoxic action of NK cells. By using monoclonal antibody (mAb) Cho-1, we have found inhibitory non-MHC class I cell surface molecules that are noncovalently-associated with 200 kDa and 40 kDa antigens. Poly I-C-induced rat NK cells were not cytotoxic to rat fetus-derived fibroblast WFB cell line. In contrast, NK cells were cytotoxic to H-ras oncogene-induced transformants of WFB, W14 and W31. FACS analysis indicated that mAb Cho-1 reacts with WFB, but not with W14 and W31 cells. Thus, this antigen may disappear concomitantly with cell growth and transformation. Cho-1 antigens were also expressed on other NK-resistant lines, such as mouse BALB3T3 fibroblast, EL-4 lymphoma and human fibroblast HEPM. However, they were not expressed on NK-sensitive mouse YAC-1 and H-ras transformant (Brash) of BALB3T3 cells. Furthermore, treatment of target cells with IFN-gamma clearly induced the cell surface expression of Cho-1 antigens, and conferred a resistance to NK cytolysis on target cells. These data strongly suggest that Cho-1 antigen expression may correlate with target cell susceptibility to NK cells. Indeed, treatment of NK-resistant WFB as well as HEPM cells with F(ab')2 fragments of mAb Cho-1 resulted in the acquisition of susceptibility to NK cytolysis. Cho-1 antigens may be novel molecules that regulate the NK resistance of cells.     

Monte Carlo simulation of light scattering from magnetic fluids asa function of the particle chain width

Light scattering from a magnetic fluid in a strong magnetic field is simulated in this article on the basis of the Monte Carlo method, where the scattering effects of the anisotropic chains formed under the influence of the magnetic field play the most important role in scattering the incident light. The distribution of the widths of the chains is believed to follow a normal distribution pattern in a given area [W_min, W_max] where (W_min and W_max are the minimum and maximum widths of the chains in the sample, respectively. The simulated curve is compared with that based on the experimental results obtained under the same conditions and the two agree well. The influences of both the expectation and the deviation of the distribution which the widths of the chains follow on light scattering are also simulated, respectively, and conclusions are drawn     

Experimental studies of high frequency jet ventilation improved by enhancing expiratory turbulence

A 43-year-old male and a 39-year-old male presented with multiple pituitary adenomas with two distinct histological types. The first patient who had multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 had developed acromegaly due to a growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH)-producing pancreatic tumor. Both plasma GHRH and growth hormone (GH) levels decreased to normal after resection of the pancreatic tumor. However, the plasma GH level gradually increased again and magnetic resonance imaging revealed pituitary adenoma formation. Histological examination revealed two different histological types of pituitary adenoma: GH cell adenoma and null cell adenoma. The second patient, with no such genetic condition, had a non-functioning pituitary adenoma. Histological examination revealed two different histological types of silent GH cell adenoma and silent gonadotroph adenoma. Careful histological examination is required to exclude the possibility of multiple pituitary adenomas.

宽带被动导引头天线系统性能分析

详细讨论了宽带被动导引头中的关键部件－超宽频带天线的性能，并在此基础上分析了三种具备大视角特性的被动测角方法。由于宽带天线没有确定的相位中心，因此不能采用通常的振幅和差式单脉冲法进行宽频带测角。本文提出的波束运算网络可用于一个宽带螺旋天线同时得到两个交叉波束的振幅－振幅式单脉冲系统中。此外，对比幅相干测向法中的测角模糊问题也进行了研究。
