EFFECT OF MAGNETIZATION OF WATER ON INDUCTION TIME AND GROWTH PERIOD OF NATURAL GAS HYDRATE

The effect of diluted solution's magnetization on induction time and growth period of natural gas hydrate (NGH) has been investigated in quiescent reaction system at pressure of 4.5 MPa and temperature of 274 K with SDS as surfactant, by using volume fixed and pressure falling method. Experimental results show that magnetization will have effect on the induction time of NGH. After magnetization with magnetic field intensity of 0.33 T, the induction time of NGH has been reduced to 47 min (average) from 99 min (average) in which there is no magnetization. On the other hand, the induction time has been prolonged after magnetization of the diluted solution with magnetic field intensity of 0.05 T, 0.11 T, 0.22 T, 0.44 T. Especially with magnetic field intensity of 0.11 T, the induction time had even been prolonged to 431 min (average). The effect of magnetization on the growth period of NGH has not been found at the experimental condition.     

Rapid evaluation of olive oil quality by NIR reflectance spectroscopy

NIR spectroscopy calibrations have been developed for a range of quality parameters in olive oil, including FFA, PV, polyphenol content, induction time, chlorophyll, and the major FA. A set of 216 olive oil samples from throughout the Australian olive-growing areas were used to provide a representative range of quality. The variation in the oils tested virtually covered the range of the chemical standard limits described by the International Olive Oil Council. A FOSS NIRSystems^® 6500 spectrophotometer with a liquid cell holder was used. Multiple correlation coefficients squared (R ²) for minor components stearic acid (0.86), and linolenic acid (0.85) were relatively low because the concentration range is very narrow compared with the reproducibility of the reference method. However, the major FA, oleic (0.99) and linoleic (1.00), FFA (0.97), and chlorophyll (0.98) provided high levels of accuracy. All of the parameters measured were sufficiently accurate for routine screening of olive oil.     

Extraction and implementation of muscle synergies in neuro-mechanical control of upper limb movement

This work faces the redundancy problem, a central concern in robotics, in a particular force-producing task by using muscle synergies to simplify the control. We extracted muscle synergies from human electromyograph signals and interpreted the physical meaning of the identified muscle synergies. Based on the human analysis results, we hypothesized a novel control framework that can explain the mechanism of the human motor control. The framework was tested in controlling a pneumatic-driven robotic arm to perform a reaching task. This control method, which uses only two synergies as manipulated variables for driving antagonistic pneumatic artificial muscles to generate desired movements, would be useful to deal with the redundancy problem; thus, suggesting a simple but efficient control for human-like robots to work safely and compliantly with humans.     

基于CPLD的光电编码器角位移拟合测速法

针对常用的M法和T法无法满足增量式光电编码器整个测速范围内误差要求的问题,提出了对码盘信号进行角位移拟合求采样时刻即时速度的新方法,在匀加速条件下对这3种方法进行了仿真实验,比较了测速误差。实验结果表明,角位移拟合法在整个速度范围内都能获得很高的测速精度和误差一致性。最后用CPLD对该方法加以实现,给出了Verilog硬件描述语言的设计程序和3种方法的实验结果比较。基于CPLD的实现方法电路简单,运行稳定可靠,处理速度快,为角位移拟合法提供了一种非常好的实现方法。     

串联感应加热电源相角保护

数字感应加热电源在工业中一般采用串联负载与PFM调功方式。串联负载谐振与PFM调功方式要求逆变器频率稳定工作在感性区,但在实际工作过程中逆变器频率可能会由感性区越过谐振点滑入容性区,引起逆变器发生"炸管"现象。为了防止"炸管"现象的发生,在谐振点附近的感性区设置限相区,当频率进入限相区经PI处理使其稳定工作在感性区达到保护逆变器的目的。通过DSP实验平台测试,限相区的设置可以很好的保护逆变器使其稳定工作在感性区。

Hydrogen and Oxygen Bubble Attachment to a Bitumen Drop

Air bubble – bitumen attachment is a critical step in the flotation of bitumen from mined oil sand. In this study, single bubble – bitumen drop attachment was observed directly using a novel experimental technique. Induction time is determined and used as an indication of bubble‐bitumen attachment potency for both hydrogen and oxygen bubbles. The attachment tests were conducted in deaerated municipal water (City of Edmonton tap water) at temperatures ranging from 22–50°C. Induction times measured for hydrogen bubble attachment were shorter than those for oxygen bubbles. Coalescence tests were also conducted in the absence of bitumen, and showed that hydrogen bubbles coalesced more rapidly than oxygen bubbles in both deaerated municipal water and clear (solids‐free) process water.
