Ensuring primary realization of pressure unit in the vacuum range without typically utilized static expansion system

After the break-up of Czechoslovakia in 1993 the primary metrological standards authority almost fully remained in Slovakia. So we had to build our primary vacuum metrology anew. But we could do it using uptodate techniques that are more effective and they enable us to fulfil our task more effectively and in a shorter time.The steady demand to widen the lower pressure range and a steady demand for maximal accuracy collide with the financial possibilities open to a small country. So it is impossible to follow the classical pattern for the vacuum standards: liquid columns, static expansion system and dynamic expansion system. But it is possible to utilize contemporary progress in construction of piston manometers. This enables us to discard liquid column and static expansion techniques in favour of piston technique [Tesar J, Prazak D. Vacuum 2002; 67: 311, Tesar J, Prazak D, Krajicek Z. In:Proceedings of international symposium on Pressure and Vacuum, 2003. p. 169, Tesar J, Repa P, Prazak D, Krajicek Z, Peksa L. Vacuum 2004; 76: 491.]. Such system fulfils all the needs of a little industrial country and is economically acceptable.     

Strategic appraisal of energy models for Mozambique

The needs that an energy supply system must meet are constantly changing, due to technological, social and political reasons. Effective energy planning is a dynamic process that is repeated periodically and adjusts to changing conditions. Energy decision makers and planners are no longer able to rely on inductive decision making since they have to investigate the effect of various decision parameters and possible future changes. To help in this process, models have been developed where estimates of future load growth, candidate power plants, fuels and other key factors can be introduced, from which the planners can evaluate decision parameters and the available alternatives. The paper presents the different methodologies and practices that are used by 11 energy models for energy demand forecasting, supply side management and generation expansion planning, demand side management and integrated resource planning. The paper concludes to the presentation of a strategic appraisal of the examined energy models appropriate for energy planning in Mozambique. Three models are proposed for conducting demand forecasting, generation expansion planning and demand side management. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Influence of Ni Interlayers on the Mechanical Properties of Ti6Al4V/(WC-Co) Friction Welds

Ni interlayers were introduced prior to dissimilar friction welding of Ti6Al4V base material to three cemented carbide substrates. The fracture strength of Ti6Al4V/(WC-6 wt% Co) welds were poor and were markedly improved when 20-µm thick Ni interlayers were introduced prior to dissimilar friction welding. These results were only produced when the (WC-6 wt% Co) cermet was electroplated prior to friction welding. When the Ti6Al4V alloy was electroplated prior to friction welding, fractured WC particles and cracking were observed in the (WC-Co) carbide substrate. The fracture strengths of Ti6Al4V/(WC-11 wt% Co) and Ti6Al4V/(WC-24 wt% Co) welds were not improved when 20-µm thick Ni interlayers were introduced prior to friction welding. During mechanical testing, the Ni layer retained at the dissimilar joint interface created a region of weakness.

Projection center calibration by motion

Camera calibration is the first step of three-dimensional machine vision. A fundamental parameter to be calibrated is the position of the camera projection center with respect to the image plane. This paper presents a method for the computation of the projection center position using images of a translating rigid object, taken by the camera itself.

Many works have been proposed in literature to solve the calibration problem, but this method has several desirable features. The projection center position is computed directly, independently of all other camera parameters. The dimensions and position of the object used for calibration can be completely unknown.

This method is based on a geometric relation between the projection center and the focus of expansion. The use of this property enables the problem to be split into two parts. First a suitable number of focuses of expansion are computed from the images of the translating object. Then the focuses of expansion are taken as landmarks to build a spatial back triangulation problem, the solution of which gives the projection center position.     

非平面对称磁场的空间展开及样条函数表述

为了研究带电粒子光学系统的光学特性,需要知道系统中磁场的空间分布。实际磁场往往不具有严格的平面对称性质,一些作者曾就这类磁场的空间展开做过不少工作。但他们的工作是在柱坐标系统中进行的,适用于诸如回旋加速器、双向聚焦磁分析器、环形磁β谱仪等一类装置的磁场分析。对于大型同位素电磁分离器(calutron)那样一类装置,其磁场分布需要

本文研究了ＳＯ３和Ｃ３Ａ对水泥浆体膨胀的影响。对于某一较早的龄期，当ＳＯ３掺量超过某一数值时，水泥浆体的膨胀与ＳＯ３掺量关系不大，而提高水泥的Ｃ３Ａ含量则能显著地增加其膨胀。本文还探讨了ＳＯ３和Ｃ３Ａ影响水泥浆体膨胀的机理。
