Wind energy resource assessment for five locations in Saudi Arabia

The analysis of recently collected wind data at five sites in Saudi Arabia namely, Dhulum, Arar, Yanbu, Gassim and Dhahran is presented. The five sites represent different geographically and climatologically conditions. The data collected over a period spanned between 1995 and 2002 with different collection periods for each site. Daily, monthly and frequency profiles of the wind speed at the sites showed that Dhulum and Arar sites have higher wind energy potential with annual wind speed average of 5.7 and 5.4 m/s and speeds higher than 5 m/s for 60 and 47% of the time, respectively. The two sites are candidates for remote area wind energy applications. The costal site's, i.e. Yanbu and Dhahran wind speed data indicated that the two sites have lower annual wind speed averages and wind blows at speed higher than 5 m/s during afternoon hours. That makes the two sites candidates for grid connected wind systems for electrical load peak shaving. The data of Gassim site showed that the site has the lowest wind energy potential compared to the others. The annual energy produced by a Nordex N43 wind machine is estimated to be 1080, 990, 730, 454 and 833 MWh for Dhulum, Arar, Yanbu, Gassim and Dhahran, respectively. The analysis showed that the estimated annual energy produced by the machine based on 10 min averaged data is 2.5% higher than the estimated energy based on 30 min averaged data.

从复印机纸盒结构看人性化设计

静电复印机是常用的办公设备,复印时要将不同规格的复印纸装入纸盒,经常需要操作者对纸盒进行调整。从使用者的角度讲,要用最小的力气、最简便的方法来完成对机器的操纵。这就需要考虑进行人性化设计。纸盒调整主要有自动监测纸盒尺寸的功能和纸盒内侧挡板(导纸板)的调整。对比不同品牌和不同机型复印机的纸盒设计,可看出人性化设计对方便操作者使用的重要性,也为购买机器时提供了借鉴。     

Directional features in online handwriting recognition

The selection of valuable features is crucial in pattern recognition. In this paper we deal with the issue that part of features originate from directional instead of common linear data. Both for directional and linear data a theory for a statistical modeling exists. However, none of these theories gives an integrated solution to problems, where linear and directional variables are to be combined in a single, multivariate probability density function. We describe a general approach for a unified statistical modeling, given the constraint that variances of the circular variables are small. The method is practically evaluated in the context of our online handwriting recognition system frog on hand and the so-called tangent slope angle feature. Recognition results are compared with two alternative modeling approaches. The proposed solution gives significant improvements in recognition accuracy, computational speed and memory requirements.

Enhanced Image Detection on an ARM based Embedded System

This paper presents a new technique for thedetection of Integrated Circuits within images of Printed Circuit Boards autonomouslyand without the need to be assisted by CAD data. The technique is a key partof a suite of algorithms targeted for an embedded System On Chip architecturebased on the ARM7 platform for real time detection of PCB images for diagnosticpurposes. The technique has a significant reduction in complexity when comparedto conventional approaches such as the Hough Transform. The reduction in complexitymakes the approach ideal for an embedded vision application suchas the one described in this paper. This paper presents the technique, thetarget embedded architecture and results showing the reduction in complexitywhen compared to a Hough Transform.     

中频反应溅射SiO2膜与直流溅射ITO膜的在线联镀

贯彻《水文条例》加强水文科研工作

水文是水利工作乃至国民经济社会发展的基础性和公益性工作。环境的变化、社会的发展、新时期水利工作治水思路转变等均向水文工作提出了新的要求，也提出了许多新的水文科学技术问题。我们应该认真学习贯彻《中华人民共和国水文条例》，加强水文监测工作，加强水文资料的汇交、管理和共享．进一步推进水文现代化建设，推进水文事业的健康发展。     

当前水价改革中迫切需要注意的问题

加强水价改革，提高水价，促进节约用水，已经成为全社会关注的焦点。在节约用水和水资源优化配置条件下如何确定水价，水价构成及供水企业的合理成本与利润，以及资源水价的分配和用途是当前水价改革中亟须研究探讨和重视的问题。商品水价应该包括三个部分：一是资源水价，二是工程水价，三是环境水价。只有包括资源因素的水价，才能真正发挥水价在水资源的优化配置和合理利用方面的调节作用。
