Bubble size measurement in three-phase system using photograph technology

A special experiment setup was designed to observe the interaction between bubbles and particle in flotation cell and to analyze the bubble characteristics such as bubble size, distribution and bubble-loading efficiency. Bubbles in water-gas system and three-phase system were measured. The results indicate that with the current setup the bubbles as small as 10μm can be easily distinguished. The average size of the bubbles generated under the given conditions in two-phase system is 410μm at frother concentration of 0. 004%, which is in good correspondence with the results of other works. The effect of frother on bubble size was probed. Increasing frother concentration from 0 to 0. 004% causes a reduction of bubble size from 700 to 400μm. The bubble loading efficiency was reported. The result indicates that the fine particle is more easily entrapped than the coarse particle. Some factors, which have effect on measurement accuracy were discussed. The aeration speed has a significant effect on the accuracy of results, if it surpasses 30 mL/s, and the image becomes unclear due to the entrapment of fine particle. Another factor, which can affect observing results, is the sampling position. At a wrong sampling position, the images become unclear.     

Psychology and Phenomenology: A Clarification.

Controversies are rampant in contemporary psychology concerning the appropriate method for observing consciousness and the role inner experience should play in psychological theorizing. These conflicting orientations reflect, in part, methodological differences between natural science and human science interpretations of psychology. Humanistic psychology and philosophical phenomenology both employ a human science approach to psychology that seeks to explain behavior in terms of a person's subjective existence. Maslow's and Heidegger's formulations are both fulfillment theories in that they specify moral values that suggest how life ought to be lived. Natural science methodology rejects the possibility that moral imperatives can be validated, whereas human science methodology allows phenomenological convictions to justify recommendations about a fulfilled life and a good society. The social role of psychology is analyzed within the framework of phenomenological convictions and scientific truth. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved)     

Influence diagnostics in regression with complex designs through conditional bias

One of the areas of Statistics in which the influence analysis has been widely studied is the multiple linear regression model. Nevertheless, the influence diagnostics proposed in this context cannot be applied to regression in complex survey, under randomized inference, since the i.i.d. case does not incorporate any probability weighting or population structure, such as clustering, stratification or measures of size into the analysis. In this paper we introduce some influence diagnostics in regression in complex survey. They are built on the conditional bias concept (Moreno-Rebollo et al., 1999). We emphasize the similarities and differences of the proposed measures with respect to the existing ones for the i.i.d. case.

交流伺服系统转动惯量的辨识及负载转矩观测方法研究

交流伺服系统的工作性能受电机参数及负载扰动的影响很大，有必要对其转动惯量和负载转矩进行在线辨识和观测，并在辨识转动惯量时考虑负载扰动，并据此调整速度PI调节器参数以改善和提高系统的稳态和动态性能。本文提出一种转动惯量辨识的改进方法，用状态观测器对负载转矩进行实时观测，然后再利用模型参考自适应算法对系统的机械参数即系统转动惯量进行辨识。研究了自适应增益对辨识结果的影响。根据转动惯量的在线辨识量，利用最小峰值响应方法对系统速度PI调节器参数进行了自整定。仿真结果验证了算法的有效性。
