The use of freelisting to elicit stakeholder understanding of the benefits sought from healthcare buildings

The process of elicitation and synthesis of the collective understanding of a cultural domain held by a group of stakeholders is challenging. This problem typifies the pre-project activity from which a coherent understanding of the benefits sought from infrastructure investment must emerge to inform the business case rationale. The anthropological freelisting method is evaluated as a solution by determining its ability to be operationalized in a practical form for project application. Using data from the stakeholders of a large NHS Scotland building project, the use of multidimensional scaling for data analysis is compared with participatory pilesorting to determine which freelisting protocol balances insight with practicality. Neither approach is found to offer an ideal method of characterizing sought benefits. The social construction of pilesorting promotes reliability while the analytical rigour of multidimensional scaling remains attractive to auditors. Their distinct insights suggest that both approaches should be combined in future and used alongside further post-elicitation devices from anthropology such as cultural consensus modelling or structured conceptualization.     

Realization and control of multiple temperature zones in liquid‐containing gas–solid fluidized bed reactor

Fluidized bed reactors (FBRs) have been developed to establish multiple temperature zones for various industrial processes. To overcome the common weakness, this work proposed to spray liquid into bottom and upper zones, respectively, to realize multiple temperature zones FBR (MTZFBR). Temperature, pressure, and acoustic emission techniques were applied to fully characterize liquid interaction and hydrodynamics. Compared with the bottom liquid‐spraying approach, the upper liquid‐spraying approach showed higher temperature difference (ΔT) and better fluidization stability, thus was selected for further control studies. Effects of liquid flow rate, static bed height, and inlet gas temperature on MTZFBR were studied systematically. The results showed that increasing liquid evaporation behavior or decreasing liquid bridge behavior enhance ΔT and fluidization stability and vice versa. G–L–S fluidization pattern depended mostly on the liquid behaviors and fluidization stability, and thus the stabilized MTZFBR could be regarded as a coexisted mode of two distinctive G–L–S fluidization patterns. © 2016 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 62: 1454–1466, 2016

飞行仿真系统中舵机特性建模与模型降阶

针对某型电液伺服舵机特性,首先建立了线性数学模型,在此基础上推导出了传递函数。其次针对该传递函数阶数较高,难以在仿真系统中实现的问题,通过基于Gram矩阵的均衡模型降阶法,运用matlab工具箱对该传递函数进行降阶处理,得到了降阶最小实现模型。然后对原始高阶函数和降阶后函数分别进行了仿真试验,比较测试结果发现,两者仿真曲线基本一致,符合要求。最后将最小实现模型加入飞行仿真系统进行测试,结论表明该系统性能良好,完全能够替代真实舵机进行飞行控制系统仿真试验。
