Structural Disruption of Toothpastes Under Deformation — An Easy Release of Active Ingredients

The author suggests a technological approach relevant to the optimization of toothpaste compositions with regard to the easy release of the therapeutic ingredients under shear deformation. It is based on the comparative assessment of the steady‐state viscous behaviour of placebo samples (mixtures containing all the components except the therapeutic ingredients) and the final products. It is presumed that the maximum beneficial effect of the toothpastes, as therapeutic agents, is achieved if the final products and the placebo blends display similar shear‐thinning characteristics.

弹簧钢棒线材质量投诉的分析研究

为分析研究某特钢厂用户投诉的原因及存在的问题，统计了其两年间的弹簧钢棒线材用户质量投诉，从缺陷类型及生产过程控制进行了分析，重点对多起断裂原因不明的投诉进行了深入的失效研究。结果表明，弹簧钢生产厂在设备工艺、过程控制和管理中存在很多不足，加上用户的使用工艺、材料的内外质量和规格等综合因素导致了材料的断裂失效。     

Life quality index for the estimation of societal willingness-to-pay for safety

The engineering and management of human safety is an important societal objective that includes extensive efforts by governments, both legislative and administrative, to enhance the health and safety of the public. Although the achievement of safety goals depend primarily on individuals and organizations responsible for safety, much support is drawn from expertise in diverse scientific and engineering disciplines. The activities range from structural safety (dams, tunnels, bridges to tall buildings) to safe operation of hazardous industrial installations (energy generation facilities, LNG terminals, petrochemical plants) to transportation systems (airline, rail, car safety) to technologies designed to minimize adverse impacts on the environment. All these activities are crucially concerned with risk: with the likelihood and the probable effects of various measures on life and health. We have developed a unified rationale and a clear basis for effective strategic management of risk across diverse sectors. Safety is an important objective in society but it is not the only one. The allocation of society's resources devoted to safety must be continually appraised in light of competing needs, because there is a limit on the resources that can be expended to extend life. The paper presents the Life Quality Index (LQI) as a tool for the assessment of risk reduction initiatives that would support the public interest and enhance safety and quality of life. The paper provides an intuitive reformulation of the LQI as equivalent to a valid utility function that is consistent with the principles of rational decision analysis. The LQI is further refined to consider the issues of discounting of life years, competing background risks, and population age and mortality distribution. The LQI is applied to quantify the societal willingness-to-pay, which is an acceptable level of public expenditure in exchange for a reduction in the risk of death that results in improved life-quality.     

碾压混凝土坝施工进度与质量控制的新措施

碾压混凝土重力坝和拱坝由于连续施工的坝体混凝土体积大，施工期间需要采取较为严格的温度控制措施，而所采取的温控措施是否有效，目前尚没有一个能够用于实际施工过程的快速有效的评估方法和方式，不能根据已施工坝体内的实际情况来控制施工进度和质量。利用分布式光纤温度测量系统来快速地获得坝体混凝土内部的大量温度信息，进而实际标定温度仿真程序并通过标定过程模拟拟施工的连续碾压层，以检验其温控措施的有效性。通过坝体内部的温度、温度变化速率和梯度来达到实时控制坝体碾压上升速度、坝面和仓面养护、以及冷缝灌浆处理等目的。     

A case study in SQA audits

Software quality assurance (SQA) audits are becoming a standard practice in corporations seeking to enter contractual relations with other organizations, or just evaluating their own state of readiness. This paper describes one approach to conducting SQA audits. Excerpts from reports of actual audits conducted on several organizations engaged in software development are used to show how an audit is conducted and what can be achieved through the auditing process. The paper is not meant to be a definitive answer or guide to doing SQA audits. Rather, it serves as an annotated case study of how SQA audits can be conducted with an emphasis on data gathering and reporting.Dr Paul W. Oman is an associate professor of computer science at the University of Idaho, and an independent software consultant who specializes in software analysis. He is the director of the Software Engineering Test Lab within the UI College of Engineering, where he conducts research in software development methods, CASE tools, and software maintainability issues. Oman has published over 50 articles and reports on software tools, software development, and computer science education. He has a PhD in computer science and is a member of the IEEE, IEEE Computer Society, and ACM.
