Synthesis of a stabilizing control problem for a multimachine power system with phase shifter

A systematic procedure is considered for the synthesis of a stabilizing control method for a multimachine power system with phase shifter, taking into account the velocity governor. A new approach is presented, which uses a coordinate-transformation technique and an optimization technique. The application of this method to a stabilizing control problem for a power system is illustrated by considering a 3-machine power system with phase-shifter control, taking into account an additional control vector for the governing system with one time constant. The synthesized controls are then used to improve the power-system transient stability to a remarkable degree and to restore the power-system transients rapidly to the stable-equilibrium point. Numerical results arc given.     

微波场中加热高钛高炉渣的数值模拟

利用微波加热技术在高钛高炉渣内引发裂纹的实验过程中发现炉渣局部区域发生热失控现象.为探寻高钛高炉渣在微波场中产生热失控的原因,使用 FEMAP 和 wave-jω 软件计算了在多模式微波炉中高钛高炉渣及其周围空间内微波场和热三维分布情况,并对比研究了钙钛矿相和普通高炉渣吸收微波的能力.通过计算结果可知几乎所有的微波能都集中在被加热的高钛高炉渣试样中,即微波具有加热高钛渣自身而非周围环境的特点.另外,高钛高炉渣试样中微波场分布不均匀,且分散在炉渣中的钙钛矿相比其他矿物相更易被微波加热.以上 2 因素作用下微波加热高钛高炉渣时局部区域发生热失控现象.     

Filtered inverse systems

In this paper, we propose a new type of inverse called the filtered inverse. This inverse reconstructs the approximate value of the input to the original system without differentiators. The definition and the existence condition of the filtered inverse are given first. Then the stability and minimal realization of the inverse are discussed. Also, the stability of conventional inverses without differentiators are examined to show the necessity for filtered inverses. Furthermore, the application of such an inverse to servo system synthesis is discussed.     

Algicidal effect of bacterial isolates of Pedobacter sp. against cyanobacterium Microcystis aeruginosa

The aim of this study was to isolate algicidal bacteria so as to control harmful cyanobacterium Microcystis aeruginosa (M.aeruginosa) blooms using biological methods. Nine bacterial strains were isolated to inhibit the growth of M. aeruginosa, among which the MaI11-5 bacterial strain exhibited remarkable algicidal activity against M. aeruginosa cells during the test. Based on the 16S rDNA analysis, the isolated MaI11-5 was identified as Pedobacter sp. through morphology and homology research. The results of cocultivation of the cyanobacteria with MaI11-5 algicidal isolates showed obvious algicidal activity against cyanobacterial cells. The algicidal effect of MaI11-5 exceeded 50% after two days, exceeded 70% after four days, and reached 80% after seven days. The observation results with a scanning electron microscope showed that the cyanobacterial cells aggregated and produced mucous-like substances when cocultivated with the algicidal bacteria. The results indicated that the MaI11-5 bacterial strain may possess a novel function for controlling harmful blooms and further studies will provide new insights into its role in water environment.     

ICRF Experiments and GAMMA 10 Potential Formation on the Tandem Mirror

Target plasmas, on which the formation of the electrostatic potentials and the improvement of the confinement are studied, are produced with ICRF in the GAMMA 10 tandem mirror. The ion temperature of more than 10 keV has been achieved in relatively low density plasmas. When the strong ICRF heating is applied, it is observed that the high frequency and the low frequency fluctuations are excited and suppress the increase of the plasma parameters. Recently, a new high power gyrotron system has been constructed and the ECRH power in plug extends up to 370 kW. The improvement of the confinement due to the formation of the potential in the axial direction and the strong radial electric field shear has been observed.     

Influence of Drying Methods on Volatile Sulfur Constituents of Caucas (Allium victorialis L.)

The effects of freeze-drying, hot air, and vacuum far infrared-drying on caucas (Allium victorialis L.) flavor was studied. The GC and GC-MS characterization of volatiles from dried caucas powders revealed the main flavor components; disulfides and trisulfides, as well as the antithrombotic substances; vinyldithiins, remained in all products. Vi-nyldithiins were isolated and subsequently confirmed by IR, NMR and Mass Spectrometry. Rehydration of the dried powders increased measurable volatile compounds, which were produced enzymatically. Increased-storage time decreased measurable volatiles in freeze-dried and hot air-dried caucas powders while the volatile profile remained unchanged.     

MEASUREMENT OF THE RELATIVE TASTE INTENSITY OF SOME L-α-AMINO ACIDS AND 5'-NUCLEOTIDES

SUMMARY— Intensity of glutamate-like and/or inosinate-like taste (umami in Japanese) of various flavor amino acids and flavor nucleotides was studied using sensory analysis and always found proportional to that of monosodium glutamate (MSG) and disodium 5'-inosinate (IMP), respectively. By application of this fact to a previously obtained equation expressing the relationship between the taste intensity of MSG-IMP mixture and that of MSG alone, the intensity of umami of the mixture of any flavor amino acids and nucleotides could be expressed as an elementary equation: y = u +γ uv, where u and v are the concentrations of amino acids and nucleotides in terms of the concentrations of MSG and IMP, respectively, in the mixture; y is the equivalent concentration of MSG alone; and γ is a positive constant. Interrelationships within each group of substances were additive.     

DIFFERENT ARRANGEMENT OF ɛ-(γ-GLUTAMYL)LYSINE CROSS-LINKING IN ALASKA POLLOCK (THERAGRA CHALCOGRAMMA) SURIMI PROTEINS BY STREPTOVERTICILLIUM AND ENDOGENOUS TRANSGLUTAMINASES DURING SUWARI PROCESS

The objective of the present study is to compare the protein cross‐linking reaction in Alaska pollock surimi that is catalyzed by a commercially available microbial transglutaminase and by endogenous Alaska pollock transglutaminase. The endogenous transglutaminase was inhibited by EGTA and activated by CaCl₂ The microbial transglutaminase was added to the salted surimi with and without EGTA and CaCl₂. These surimi pastes were incubated at 25C up to 24 h followed by cooking at 90C. The resultant gels were fractionated into soluble and insoluble (aggregate) fractions by SDS‐urea extraction. Compositional analysis revealed that the aggregate consisted predominantly of cross‐linked myosin heavy chain. The distribution of ?‐(γ‐glutamyl)lysine isopeptide in the soluble and aggregate fractions andpeptide mapping analyses of the aggregate fraction demonstrate that the formation of isopeptide cross‐links in Alaska pollock surimi proteins during suwari process differs when catalyzed by the microbial transglutaminase and endogenous transglutaminase.     

Combustion Synthesized Porous Body of Fe3O4/Al System by Controlled Microwave Heating and Heating Behavior of the Products

Microwave-induced substitutional combustion reaction was utilized to fabricate porous ceramic composite from Fe₃O₄/Al powder mixtures.The porous composite body was obtained by controlling the combustion reaction progress in a 2.45 GHz single mode applicator.Prior to the fabrication of the porous body,heating behavior of the powder mixtures were studied in the separated electric（E）and magnetic（H）fields.In addition,heating ability of the microwave fabricated porous product was also investigated.Fe₃O₄powder can be heated up easily in both maximum H and E field,but a better heating was observed in the maximum H field.Regardless of the mixtures ratio（mixing compositions）,maximum H field shows better heating characteristics.In E-field heating,temperature of the Fe₃O₄ samples decreased sharply when Al powder was added.However,the same phenomenon was not observed in the maximum H field heating.Thus,fabrication of the porous composite body was carrying out in maximum H field.Through an adequate control of the reaction progress,products with a porous structure consisting of well-distributed metal particles in the alumina and/or hercynite matrix were obtained.Consequently,heating of the fabricated porous composite body was also been successfully carried out in the maximum H field.Product phases and microstructure were the main factors influencing the heating ability of the porous composite body.     

Factors Affecting the Stability of Chlortetracycline, Tylosin and Furylfuramide Against Low Level of Ionizing Radiation

SUMMARY— Effect of low levels of ionizing radiation (0.01–0.2 Mrad) on the stability of chlortetracycline (CTC) , furylfuramide (FF) and tylosin (Tl) were investigated. Tl in the phosphate buffer of pH 6–8 was very sensitive to low-level radiation, while either FF or CTC exhibited fairly high resistance at the same dose levels. Removal of dissolved oxygen in the test solution by aerating with nitrogen gas enhanced the inactivation of TI and FF at 0.05–0.1 Mrad of radiation, but it had an opposite effect on the inactivation of CTC. Much higher TI and CTC activities were retained after irradiation at 0.1 or 0.2 Mrad when the drugs were added to albumin, gelatin, broth or minced meats of five species of fish; the retention of FF did not change.
The remaining activity of Tl at 0.1 or 0.2 Mrad of radiation was more or less influenced by adding various sugars and amino acids. The presence of sugars (mono- or disaccharides) did not change retention of TI markedly, but gave a weak protective effect. Tryptophane, histidine, phenylalanine, methionine and tyrosine exhibited a fairly high protective action on the inactivation of TI after irradiation.
