Use of the Extreme Groups Approach: A Critical Reexamination and New Recommendations.

Analysis of continuous variables sometimes proceeds by selecting individuals on the basis of extreme scores of a sample distribution and submitting only those extreme scores to further analysis. This sampling method is known as the extreme groups approach (EGA). EGA is often used to achieve greater statistical power in subsequent hypothesis tests. However, there are several largely unrecognized costs associated with EGA that must be considered. The authors illustrate the effects EGA can have on power, standardized effect size, reliability, model specification, and the interpretability of results. Finally, the authors discuss alternative procedures, as well as possible legitimate uses of EGA. The authors urge researchers, editors, reviewers, and consumers to carefully assess the extent to which EGA is an appropriate tool in their own research and in that of others.

An Interval Fuzzy Multiobjective Watershed Management Model for the Lake Qionghai Watershed, China

Integrated watershed management is required to ensure the reasonable use of resources and reconcile interactions among natural and human systems. In the present study, an interval fuzzy multiobjective programming (IFMOP) method was used to solve an integrated watershed management problem. Based on system analysis, an IFMOP model suitable for a lake watershed system {IFMOPLWS} was developed and applied to the Lake Qionghai watershed in China. Scenario analysis and an interactive approach were used in the solution process. In this manner, various system components were incorporated into one framework for holistic consideration and optimization. Integrality and uncertainty, as well as the multiobjective and dynamic characteristics of the watershed system, were well addressed. Using two scenarios, two planning schemes were generated. Agriculture, tourism, macroeconomics, cropland use, water supply, forest coverage, soil erosion, and water pollution were fully interpreted and compared to identify a preferable planning alternative for local agencies. This study showed that the IFMOPLWS is a powerful tool for integrated watershed management planning and can provide a solid base for sustainable watershed management.     

一种增强型冲突分解算法

冲突分解算法是一种能有效改善无线信道多址接入协议的方式。本文对传统的冲突分解算法——树形冲突分解算法和先到先服务冲突分解算法进行了深入研究和仿真，探讨了这两种算法的优点和不足之处，提出了一种增强型的冲突分解算法（Enhanced Splitting Algorithm，ESA）。该算法继承了树形冲突分解算法和先到先服务算法的优点，不仅考虑了碰撞分组产生的时间，还考虑了分组的产生间隔，从而有效地提高了冲突分解算法的性能。仿真结果显示ESA算法是一种可行的算法。

分割电极片状压电致动器——(二)位移特性及狭缝宽度对其影响的实验研究

研究了悬臂梁式分割电极片状压电致动器的位移特性。理论分析表明，分割电极狭缝宽度会减小致动器自由端的位移输出，但当狭缝宽度小于致动器电极宽度的１０％时，可忽略狭缝宽度的影响。致动器端部位移的测试结果大于理论计算值。与现有磁头悬浮臂尺寸相近的致动器，在２０Ｖ～５０Ｖ的电压驱动下均可获得１μｍ～２μｍ的致动位移。对９８５０道／厘米的密度磁盘，该位移能覆盖至少一个磁道宽度，满足磁头定位两级伺服系统对第二级致动器位移的基本要求。     

压水堆硼稀释事故的计算

一、概述核电厂压水堆的初始过剩反应性是通过控制捧、固体可燃毒物和溶解在主回路冷却剂中的硼酸等三种方式联合控制的。随着反应堆的燃耗和裂变毒物的积累,堆的过剩反应性不断减少,需要通过化容系统,控制硼酸的浓度来进行补偿。如果化容系统发生故障或操作员误操作,就会给回路注入无硼或低于规定浓度的补给水,给反应堆引入正反应性,造成硼稀释事故。按核安全法规的要求,应对换料、冷停堆、热停堆和启动等工况进行计算,并要求在这些

Performance Evaluation of Packet Mobile Communications through Level Crossing Analysis

In this paper the performance of a packet mobile radio network is studied inthe presence of shadow fading outage intervals.Under quite general assumptions for the medium access protocol,the probability mass function of the sequence of packets that may be lostdue to an outage interval is derived. It is seen that long sequences of lostpackets are likely to occur for typical values of the mobile speed andshadowing correlation parameters.For delay constrained sources, e.g., voice, the analysis is mainly focused atderiving the probability function of the sequence of dropped packetsand the probability of dropping. For data sources, the delay statistic isalso derived. In the latter case, the effect of finite buffer length isaddressed. Simulation is used to verify the accuracy of approximations introduced in the analysis.
