An Advanced Loose Parts Monitoring System (its acronym is ALPS) has been developed and installed on each unit of the Paks Nuclear Power Plant, Hungary. ALPS uses sophisticated methods to identify the events hidden in the quite extensive background noise of nuclear power plants. A classification algorithm based on an expert system, which is trained during the start-up period of each fuel cycle, helps to improve the false alarm rate. Thus the false alarm rate was reduced to a minimum, statistically below 1%. In practice, even the remaining “false alarms” were identified to be originating from other noise sources using ALPS. The main principles of ALPS are presented. It is demonstrated, that even weak signals, comparable with the resolution of the analog-digital board, i.e. comparable with detection noises, can be identified at high certainty. Other events like vibration of the shaft of motor operated isolating valves have been identified by ALPS. Furthermore, experiences gained during the installation period are also discussed. 相似文献

The transit time of the coolant, and thus its velocity, has been measured using the temperature fluctuation at the outlet of a reactor core. An impulse response function estimation is introduced, which substitutes the widely used cross-correlation measurement technique. It is shown in theory and practice that the time delay estimation is improved when using the impulse response function instead of the cross-correlation function in parameter estimation. Extremely low velocities (down to 2 cm/sec) have been measured in a natural circulation regime in a research reactor. 相似文献

A multiscale approach spanning from the segmental (subnanometer) up to micrometer level was applied for detailed study of the self‐assembly of aliphatic block polyurethane (PU) elastomers. To understand the principles of the self‐organization of hard and soft segments in the complex multi‐component systems, several two‐component model PU samples, that is, the products of 1,6‐diisocyanatohexane (HDI) with three diols differing in the length and constitution were also prepared, characterized, and investigated: (i) polycarbonate‐based macrodiol (MD), (ii) biodegradable oligomeric diol (DL‐L; product of butane‐1,4‐diol and D,L‐lactide), and (iii) butane‐1,4‐diol (BD). The study (particularly 13C‐1H PILGRIM NMR spectra) reveals complex internal organization and interesting (application appealing) behavior of multi‐component PUs. Hard segments (HDI+BD products) feature self‐assembled and significantly folded chain conformations with interdomain spacing 15–22 nm (small‐angle X‐ray scattering analysis). The small domains are hierarchically assembled in various structural formations of µm size (spherulites) depending on PU composition, as detected by transmission electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Current cardiac implantable devices (IDs) are equipped with a set of sensors that can provide useful information to improve patient follow-up and prevent health deterioration in the postoperative period. In this paper, data obtained from an ID with two such sensors (a transthoracic impedance sensor and an accelerometer) are analyzed in order to evaluate their potential application for the follow-up of patients treated with a cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). A methodology combining spatiotemporal fuzzy coding and multiple correspondence analysis (MCA) is applied in order to: 1) reduce the dimensionality of the data and provide new synthetic indexes based on the "factorial axes" obtained from MCA; 2) interpret these factorial axes in physiological terms; and 3) analyze the evolution of the patient's status by projecting the acquired data into the plane formed by the first two factorial axes named "factorial plane." In order to classify the different evolution patterns, a new similarity measure is proposed and validated on the simulated datasets, and then, used to cluster observed data from 41 CRT patients. The obtained clusters are compared with the annotations on each patient's medical record. Two areas on the factorial plane are identified, one being correlated with a health degradation of patients and the other with a stable clinical state. 相似文献

Four bilayer tablet compression machines were evaluated for their suitability for compression of a specific bilayer tablet formulation. Tablet machines evaluated were: Manesty (Model No. BB4), Manesty (Model No. Rotappress), Fette (Model No. P3102) and Kilian (Model No. 51AST-ZS) tablet presses. The tablet delamination tendency was the primary acceptance criteria for the evaluation of tablet press performance. The compression force on layer I was found to be the major factor influencing tablet delamination. It was found that the Kilian press was best suited for the compression of the model bilayer tablet formulation. The Kilian press is equipped with a special sampling device for layer I which allows additional compression force to be applied on layer I only at the time of weight sampling. The sampling device then returns to the original set points after sampling is completed. This feature maintains the compression force on layer I to a minimum during routine compression. Data indicated that the compression force on layer I and the compression zone in the die cavity of layer II were two factors needing to be controlled in order to yield bilayer tablets with acceptable physical characteristics. 相似文献

Ultrasonic tissue characterization has become an area of intensive research. This procedure generally relies on the analysis of the unprocessed echo signal. Because the ultrasound echo is degraded by the non-ideal system point spread function, a deconvolution step could be employed to provide an estimate of the tissue response that could then be exploited for a more accurate characterization. In medical ultrasound, deconvolution is commonly used to increase diagnostic reliability of ultrasound images by improving their contrast and resolution. Most successful algorithms address deconvolution in a maximum a posteriori estimation framework; this typically leads to the solution of l(2)-norm or (1)-norm constrained optimization problems, depending on the choice of the prior distribution. Although these techniques are sufficient to obtain relevant image visual quality improvements, the obtained reflectivity estimates are, however, not appropriate for classification purposes. In this context, we introduce in this paper a maximum a posteriori deconvolution framework expressly derived to improve tissue characterization. The algorithm overcomes limitations associated with standard techniques by using a nonstandard prior model for the tissue response. We present an evaluation of the algorithm performance using both computer simulations and tissue-mimicking phantoms. These studies reveal increased accuracy in the characterization of media with different properties. A comparison with state-of-the-art Wiener and l(1)-norm deconvolution techniques attests to the superiority of the proposed algorithm. 相似文献

This paper deals with the conception of a new system for sleep staging in ambulatory conditions. Sleep recording is performed by means of five electrodes: two temporal, two frontal and a reference. This configuration enables to avoid the chin area to enhance the quality of the muscular signal and the hair region for patient convenience. The electroencephalopgram (EEG), eletromyogram (EMG), and electrooculogram (EOG) signals are separated using the Independent Component Analysis approach. The system is compared to a standard sleep analysis system using polysomnographic recordings of 14 patients. The overall concordance of 67.2% is achieved between the two systems. Based on the validation results and the computational efficiency we recommend the clinical use of the proposed system in a commercial sleep analysis platform. 相似文献

Robotic technologies have shown their potential to improve efficiency, precision, and safety for construction tasks. In this paper, the concept of design for robotic construction (DfRC) is introduced, and robotic collaborative systems are developed for the construction of load-carrying structures. An automated structural assembly was achieved and demonstrated through robotics with a preference for reciprocal frame (RF) structures. Key innovations include the use of magnetic temporary connections to minimize offsets of mobile robots and linear actuators as temporary supports during construction. Furthermore, specific procedures are formulated to navigate the robots and to target and install the components using a fiducial marker system and simultaneous localization and mapping packages, with consideration of structural deformation during construction due to self-weight. The successful assembly of a 4.5-m span RF structure demonstrates the potential of DfRC and the proposed robotic collaborative system in the automated construction of load-carrying structures. 相似文献

This report presents results of Feynman- measurements carried out in the training reactor of the Technical University of Budapest. It is shown that Feynman- measurement can be successfully carried out at large subcriticality in a 100kW reactor. The results agree well with the theoretical predictions. Results are compared with value estimated from other experiments. Extrapolations of value to critical state gives good agreement with other estimations. 相似文献

In this paper, a new scheme that uses digraph substitution rules to conceal the mechanism or activity required to derive password-images is proposed. In the proposed method, a user is only required to click on one of the pass-image instead of both pass-images shown in each challenge set for three consecutive sets.While this activity is simple enough to reduce login time, the images clicked appear to be random and can only be obtained with complete knowledge of the registered password along with the activity rules. Thus, it becomes impossible for shoulder-surfing attackers to obtain the information about which password images and pass-images are used by the user. Although the attackers may know about the digraph substitution rules used in the proposed method, the scenario information used in each challenge set remains. User study results reveal an average login process of less than half a minute. In addition, the proposed method is resistant to shoulder-surfing attacks. 相似文献
