Singular extremal control problem with time delay

In this article, the singular extremal control problem with time delay is studied from the viewpoint of the calculus of variation and matrix theory. Some sufficient conditions for the non-negativity of the second variation are obtained for an optimal control problem with a delayed state vector. The hypothesis of Hass is first assumed, and the total singular situation of Jacobson and Bell is also considered. A second-order necessary condition for optimality is also presented.     

A Modification of the Coates Gain Formula for the Analysis of Linear Systems

In this paper, the Coates flow-graph gain formula is modified by the introduction of the loop-set and the two-loop-set, baaed on the concepts of the tree and the two-tree in network topology. The analogy is evident by observing that the two-trees T _ij of a given graph G can be obtained by coalescing vertices i and j of G and thon removing the self-loops. In a similar manner, the two-loop-sets can be obtained from the flow graph by first modifying the graph and then obtaining the loop-sets of tho modified graph. Because of such modification, the derivation of tho gain formula is considerably simplified. Consequently, the evaluation of the terms in the formula becomes easier. Finally, a simple method of determining the number of terms in the formula is derived as a check against possible omission of terms due to carelessness.     

Precooked sorghum flour as proper vehicle of ACE-I and DPP-IV inhibitory sorghum peptides

Sorghum flour was heat treated for producing an instant dispersion ingredient. The precooked sorghum flour was added with ACE-I and DPP-IV inhibitory sorghum peptides (3.0 g peptide 100 g⁻¹). The product was reconstituted in water, and peptide bioaccessibility was evaluated by equilibrium dialysis method after simulated gastrointestinal digestion. Total peptide dialysability of precooked sorghum flour added with sorghum peptides was higher than those obtained for precooked sorghum flour (315.9 ± 14.8 vs. 45.2 ± 5.6 µmol, respectively) (P < 0.05). The ACE-I and DPP-IV-IC₅₀ values of the bioaccessible peptides from the bioactive product were lower than those obtained for precooked sorghum flour ingredient (1.04 ± 0.12 vs. 1.82 ± 0.09 and 0.86 ± 0.02 vs. 2.12 ± 0.08 mg protein mL⁻¹, for ACE-I and DPP-IV, respectively) indicating a higher activity. Precooked sorghum flour was a good vehicle since it did not affect the bioaccessibility of ACE-I and DPP-IV inhibitory peptides provided by sorghum protein hydrolysate.     

Influence of pH on colour and iron content of peptide fractions obtained from bovine Hb concentrate hydrolysates

The effect of pH on colour and iron content (Fe) of peptide fractions obtained from bovine haemoglobin concentrate (BHC) hydrolysates was studied. Four hydrolysates were obtained using three enzymes: Protex‐6‐L (P), Fungal–Protease–Concetrate (FC) and Flavourzyme (F). BHC and its hydrolysates (P, FC, P + F, FC + F) were fractioned at pH 4.5, 7.0 and 9.5. Solubility and Fe from different fractions were measured. Correlations between CIELAB colour parameters and Fe from different fractions were analysed. The colour from different fractions varied from red to yellow (a* and b* positives). Lightness values (L*) ranged from twenty‐four to seventy. FC4.5 and FC + F4.5 fractions were the clearest and yellow (higher L*, b*, h), while BHC9.5 and P + F9.5 fractions had the lowest values of L*, b* and h. There was an inverse linear relationship between b* and L* parameters and Fe from fractions. This relationship could be associated with the pH of extraction. As pH increases Fe significantly increases and lower b* and L* values were obtained.

为将暂态稳定约束最优潮流问题转化为最优潮流和暂态稳定两个子问题,根据暂态稳定计算结果求出发电机转角及转速相对于机械输入功率的轨迹灵敏度。基于轨迹灵敏度,计算出在最领先发电机和最落后发电机之间转移的有功功率,据此修改其在最优潮流模型中的有功功率上下限,从而实现两个子问题的交替求解。并且推导出准确的轨迹灵敏度及初值计算公式,利用上述公式,得更小的转移功率值,从而使功率转移后系统的优化程度更高。同时在惯性中心坐标下采用最大转角判据找出最领先机和最落后机,并以3机9节点和10机39节点系统为例,验证了该方法的可行性。     

移动荷载识别的适用性研究

桥梁移动荷载识别技术的适用性是决定其能否直接应用于现场桥梁荷载在线识别的关键因素。基于矩量法和移动荷载识别理论,采用整域基函数表达桥面移动车载,提出了一种时域移动荷载识别改进方法(ITDM)。分别选用正交勒让德多项式和傅立叶级数作为基函数,形成两种改进算法(LITDM和FITDM),通过仿真及试验验证所提方法的正确性及可行性,并从基函数数量和运行时间两方面与时域法(TDM)进行对比研究。仿真及试验研究结果表明:LITDM、FITDM性能与TDM相近,但ITDM灵活性更强,其中以FITDM计算效率最高,适用性最强,LITDM次之,这对于桥梁移动荷载的现场在线准确识别非常有利。

Effects of source coherence and aperture array geometry on optical sectioning strength in direct-view microscopy

Laser sources offer a possible solution to the problem of low light throughput in direct-view microscopes (DVMs). However, coherent source DVMs have been shown to suffer from problems such as increased sidelobes in the depth response because of coherent cross talk between neighboring apertures. We explore theoretically how source coherence affects the depth responses of DVMs by employing various aperture spacings and number of apertures. We show that, contrary to expectation, closely spaced apertures can result in decreased full width at half-maximum of the depth response curve. We explain this as an effect of destructive interference when cross talk between neighboring apertures occurs. Using apertures arranged in a square grid as an example, we move on to show that the use of aperture arrays that consist of regularly arranged apertures can accentuate the problematic sidelobes of the depth response. We show that arranging pinholes in a rectangular grid rather than a square grid can improve the optical sectioning strength significantly. Finally, by examination of the depth responses corresponding to the infinite-pinhole-array limit, we make some general statements about source coherence and the characteristics of arrays that are likely to perform well.
