An improved closed-loop stability related measure forfinite-precision digital controller realizations

The pole-sensitivity approach is employed to investigate the stability issue of the discrete-time control system, where a digital controller implemented with finite word length (FWL), is used. A stability related measure is derived, which is more accurate in estimating the closed-loop stability robustness of an FWL implemented controller than some existing measures for the pole-sensitivity analysis. This improved stability measure thus provides a better criterion to find the optimal realizations for a generic controller structure that includes output-feedback and observer-based controllers. A numerical example is used to verify the theoretical analysis and to illustrate the design procedure     

The relationship of the bayes risk to certain separability measures in normal classification

For the problem of classifying an element (e.g., an unknown pattern) into one of two given categories where the associated observables are distributed according to one of two known multivariate normal populations having a common covariance matrix, it is shown that the minimum Bayes risk is a strict monotonic function of certain separability or statistical distance measures regardless of the a priori probabilities and the assigned loss function. However, for the associated conditional expected losses, strict monotonicity holds, if and only if a certain condition dependent on these probabilities and the given loss function is satisfied. These results remain valid for classification problems in which the observable can be transformed by a one-to-one differentiable mapping to normality.     

Determining the number of new employees with learning, forgetting and variable wage with a Newsvendor model in pull systems

This paper develops a new quantitative model to find the optimal number of new employees with a Newsvendor model in a pull production system. This model allows learning, forgetting and variable wage. This paper also provides numerical results on sensitivity analysis, and compares the numerical results in three different situations: the situation with both learning and forgetting effect, that with learning effect but without forgetting effect and the situation with neither learning nor forgetting effect. The conclusions drawn from the comparison may offer theoretical insight for human resource managers to make appropriate employment decisions.     

Pressure-induced non-bulk superconductivity in Eu1.2Mo6(S1−x Se x )8

High-pressure study has been made both resistively and magnetically on Eu_1.2Mo₆(S_1–x Se _x )₈. Superconductivity was detected at a lower pressure in samples forx0 than forx=0 in spite of the larger unit cell volume of the former. The superconductivity observed remains non-bulk up to 20 kbar. The maximum onset temperature of the superconductivity transition decreases withx.On leave from the Physics Institute, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Peking, China.     

THE DYNAMIC BEHAVIOR AND CHAOS FOR TWO PARALLEL REACTIONS IN A CONTINUOUS STIRRED TANK REACTOR

The dynamical behavior for two parallel reactions in a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) is considered. The global maximum number of steady states is five. Stability conditions are obtained. When the steady state is unique and unstable, a circulating attractor is proven to exist. The orbit structure is numerically found to consist of periodic orbits and chaotic behavior.

Microstructure evolution of the Sn–Ag–y%Cu interconnect

The lead free Sn–Ag–y%Cu (y = 0.0, 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0) interconnect interfacial microstructures and the microstructure evolution under thermal treatment (isothermal aging, 150 °C/1000 h) were studied in detail by using surface microetching microscopy and cross section microscopy. The corresponding mechanical and reliability behaviors were evaluated by performing shear test and fracture mode analysis before and after the thermal treatment. The results indicate: (i) The interconnects could have different microstructures and intermetallic compound (IMC), depending on the Cu content. The Cu–Sn IMC could have microstructures that were clusters or protrusion-like, Augustine grass leaf-like, scissor-like, tweezers-like, etc. (ii) Ag₃Sn IMCs were not observed at time zero for any interconnect groups, but they occurred after the aging for all groups. The Ag₃Sn IMC could have different microstructures, again depending on Cu content. For low Cu content, the Ag₃Sn IMCs were granules or nodules; for higher Cu content, Ag₃Sn IMCs were plate-like. (iii) The growth of Ag₃Sn plates was promoted by the growth of Cu–Sn IMCs, but indirectly linked to the Cu content. (iv) High Cu content (1.0 wt% and higher) could degrade the mechanical and reliability performances of the LF interconnect by providing a brittle joint, which was mainly achieved through the substantial growth of Cu–Sn IMCs and Ag₃Sn plates.
