The purpose of this work is to develop a thin, electromagnetic wobble motor with a large amount of torque, a motor thinner than conventional ones and able to be applied to portable electric equipment. We have developed a basic model of the motor 30 mm in diameter and 5 mm in thickness. In this paper, the basic structure and control method are first presented. Next, the design of the electromagnets and the three types of gear pairs, which have different pressure angles for the reduction mechanism, are presented. Finally, the motor drive experiments are performed using two types of drive: one is a two-phase drive, and the other is a four-phase drive. Three types of gear pairs are also shown. The motor works successfully, and its great potential to be mounted in thin, portable equipments is confirmed.

Seepage control is a prerequisite for hydrocarbon storage in unlined rock caverns (URCs) where the seepage of stored products to the surrounding host rock and groundwater can cause serious environmental and financial problems. Practically seepage control is performed by permeability and hydrodynamic control methods. This paper employs numerical modelling and genetic programming (GP) for the purpose of seepage prediction and control method determination for the crude oil storage URCs based on the effective parameters including hydrogeologic characteristic of the rock and physicochemical properties of the hydrocarbons. Several levels for each parameter were considered and all the possible scenarios were modelled numerically for the two-phase mixture model formulation. The corresponding seepage values were evaluated to be used as genetic programming data base to generate representative equations for the hydrocarbon seepage value. The coefficients of determination (R2) and relative percent errors of the proposed equations show their ability in the seepage prediction and permeability or hydrodynamic control method determination and design. The results can be used for crude oil storage URCs worldwide.

Intelligent control methods of missile guidance and control system (GACS) are studied in this paper. Secondly, the component and principle of GACS is introduced. Based on the fuzzy neural network, this paper constructs a basic structure of the intelligent control method of missile. Meanwhile, a new intelligent control method of rolling channel of missile based on Fuzzy Cerebella Model Articulation Controller (FCMAC) is designed. Under complicated environmental conditions, the missile can be accurately controlled with this method. Finally, the application value is illustrated. It’s very meaningful to improve the combat capability.

The thin wobble motors that are required to hold rating shafts employ an electropermanent magnet. This turns the holding force on and off by applying a momentary electrical pulse. To design the magnet devices without the need for finite element analyses, a theoretical force model is necessary for predicting the attractive force. In this paper, first, a force model is derived by estimating the permeance around the air gap. A magnetic circuit is constructed, employing a relatively simple method to build the model in clouding leakage flux. Thus, the basic structure and driving principle are also presented. Next, an analytical force model is constructed on the basis of distribution parameter analysis between the stator and the rotating shaft. The design of the electromagnet core and the control method are presented. Finally, a prototype model of the motor that is 30 mm in diameter and 7 mm in thick is fabricated. The two models are verified by comparing the results of FEM with the results of the experiments. They can properly predict the attractive force, so the thin wobble motor with holding force can be applied in portable electric equipment.

SummaryIn collaborative experiments in 199 laboratories, nine commercial thromboplastins, four thromboplastins held by the National Institute for Biological Standards and Control (NIBS & C), London and the British Comparative Thromboplastin were tested on fresh normal and coumarin plasmas, and on three series of freeze-dried plasmas. One of these was made from coumarin plasmas and the other two were prepared from normal plasmas; in each series, one plasma was normal and the other two represented different degrees of coumarin defect.Each thromboplastin was calibrated against NIBS&C rabbit brain 70/178, from the slope of the line joining the origin to the point of intersection of the mean ratios of coumarin/normal prothrombin times when the ratios obtained with the two thromboplastins on the same fresh plasmas were plotted against each other. From previous evidence, the slopes were calculated which would have been obtained against the NIBS&C “research standard” thromboplastin 67/40, and termed the “calibration constant” of each thromboplastin. Values obtained from the freeze-dried coumarin plasmas gave generally similar results to those from fresh plasmas for all thromboplastins, whereas values from the artificial plasmas agreed with those from fresh plasmas only when similar thromboplastins were being compared.Taking into account the slopes of the calibration lines and the variation between laboratories, precision in obtaining a patient’s prothrombin time was similar for all thromboplastins.

Normal practice in continuous digester operation is to set the production rate through the chip meter speed. This speed is seldom, if ever, adjusted except to change production, and most of the other digester inputs are ratioed to it. The inherent assumption is that constant chip meter speed equates to constant dry mass flow of chips. This is seldom, if ever, true. As a result, the actual production rate, effective alkali (EA)-to-wood and liquor-to-wood ratios may vary substantially from assumed values. This increases process variability and decreases profits. In this report, a new continuous digester production rate control strategy is developed that addresses this shortcoming. A new noncontacting near infrared–based chip moisture sensor is combined with the existing weightometer signal to estimate the actual dry chip mass feedrate entering the digester. The estimated feedrate is then used to implement a novel feedback control strategy that adjusts the chip meter speed to maintain the dry chip feedrate at the target value. The report details the results of applying the new measurements and control strategy to a dual vessel continuous digester.
