Robust speed control of a low damped electromechanical system with backlash is studied, controlled load angular speed being not measured. The proposed control strategy combines a Luenberger observer (load angular speed and load torque disturbance estimations) and a robust CRONE controller. The observer provides estimation of the load angular speed and of the disturbance torque applied on the load. Through the computation of only three independent parameters (as many as a PID controller), the CRONE controller permits to ensure the robust speed control of the load in spite of plant parametric variations and speed observation errors. The proposed control strategy is applied to a four mass experimental test bench. 相似文献
The thermal stability and thermal decomposition pathways for synthesized composite iowaite/woodallite have been determined
using thermogravimetry analysis in conjunction with evolved gas mass spectrometry. Dehydration of the hydrotalcites occurred
over a range of 56–70°C. The first dehydroxylation step occurred at around 255°C and, with the substitution of more iron(III)
for chromium(III) this temperature increased to an upper limit of 312°C. This trend was observed throughout all decomposition
steps. The release of carbonate ions as carbon dioxide gas initialised at just above 300°C and was always accompanied by loss
of hydroxyl units as water molecules. The initial loss of the anion in this case the chloride ion was consistently observed
to occur at about 450°C with final traces evolved at 535 to 780°C depending of the Fe:Cr ratio and was detected as HCl (m/z=36). Thus for this to occur, hydroxyl units must have been retained in the structure at temperatures upwards of 750°C. Experimentally
it was found difficult to keep CO2 from reacting with the compounds and in this way the synthesized iowaite-woodallite series somewhat resembled the natural
minerals. 相似文献
Efficient formulas for computing the probabilities of finding exactly electrons in an arbitrarily chosen volume 3 for Hartree–Fock wavefunctions are presented. These formulas allow the use of shape optimization techniques, such as level set methods, for optimizing with respect to various criteria involving such probabilities. The criterion defined as the difference between the Hartree–Fock and the independent-particle model probabilities of finding electrons in stresses the quantum effects due to the Pauli principle. We have implemented a 2D level set method for optimizing this criterion in order to study spatial separation of electron pairs in linear molecules. The method is described and the illustrative example of the BH molecule is reported.Contribution to the Jacopo Tomasi Honorary Issue 相似文献
Mixing liquids at the micro-scale is difficult because the low Reynolds numbers in microchannels and in microreactors prohibit the use of conventional mixing techniques based on mechanical actuators and induce turbulence. Static mixers can be used to solve this mixing problem. This paper presents micromixers with geometries very close to conventional large-scale static mixers used in the chemical and food-processing industry. Two kinds of geometries have been studied. The first type is composed of a series of stationary rigid elements that form intersecting channels to split, rearrange and combine component streams. The second type is composed of a series of short helix elements arranged in pairs, each pair comprised of a right-handed and left-handed element arranged alternately in a pipe. Micromixers of both types have been designed by CAD and manufactured with the integral microstereolithography process, a new microfabrication technique that allows the manufacturing of complex three-dimensional objects in polymers. The realized mixers have been tested experimentally. Numerical simulations of these micromixers using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) program FLUENT are used to evaluate the mixing efficiency. With a low pressure drop and good mixing efficiency these truly three-dimensional micromixers can be used for mixing of reactants or liquids containing cells in many microTAS applications. 相似文献
In this study, headspace gas chromatography/mass spectrometry has been used to assess the volatile by-products generated by
the ageing of oil-impregnated paper insulation of power transformers. Sealed-glass ampoules were used to age under oxidative
conditions 0.5-g specimens of insulating paper in 9 mL of inhibited mineral oil in a temperature range of 60–120 °C and moisture
of 0.5, 1 and 2% (w/w). A linear relationship between one of the oil-soluble degradation by-products, i.e. methanol, and the
number of ruptured 1,4-β-glycosidic bonds of cellulose, regardless of the type of paper (ordinary Kraft or thermally-upgraded
(TU) Kraft paper), was established for the first time in this field. Ageing at 130 °C of model compounds of the Kraft paper
constituents (α-cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin) and two cellulosic breakdown by-products (D-(+)-glucose and 1,6-anhydro-β-d-glucopyranose) confirmed that the α-cellulose degradation was mostly responsible for the presence of this molecule in the
system. Furthermore, additional 130 °C-tests with six different papers and pressboard samples under a tight control of initial
moisture indicated that at least one molecule of methanol is formed for each rupture of 1,4-β-glucosidic bond of the molecular
chains. Stability tests showed that the ageing indicator is stable under the oxygen and temperature conditions of open-breathing
transformers. The presence of methanol was detected in 94% of oil samples collected from over than 900 in-service pieces of
equipment, confirming the potential for this application. Lastly, the tests have shown that oil-oxidation by-products and
TU-nitrogenous agents modify the methanol partitioning coefficients in the paper/oil/air system, which makes their study essential
over a range of field conditions encountered by power transformers. Results are presented and discussed in comparison with
2-furfuraldehyde, which is the current reference in the domain. 相似文献
[reaction: see text] The use of hydroxamic acids as templates for Lewis acid catalyzed enantioselective Diels-Alder reactions has been examined. A very simple chiral Lewis acid, prepared by mixing optically pure binaphthol with 3 equiv of trimethylaluminum, catalyzes the [4 + 2] cycloaddition of N-hydroxy-N-phenylacrylamide with cyclopentadiene at 0 degrees C in high yield (>96%) and with a fairly good level of enantioselectivity (91% ee). Facile conversion of the products to the corresponding alcohols or aldehydes makes the hydroxamic acid intermediates particularly useful. 相似文献
The synthesis of 6-ethyl-5-(4-pyridinyl)-2,4-pyrimidinediamine ( 2 ), the pyridine analog of pyrimethamine, is described. Condensation of 4-pyridineacetonitrile ( 3 ) with methyl propionate afforded α-(1-oxopropyl)-4-pyridineacetonitrile ( 4 ). Treatment with triethyl orthopropionate gave primarily the undesired N-alkylated material. However reaction of the crude mixture with guanidine afforded 2 in low yield. This material was devoid of significant antimalarial activity. 相似文献
Blackbox optimization tackles problems where the functions are expensive to evaluate and where no analytical information is available. In this context, a tried and tested technique is to build surrogates of the objective and the constraints in order to conduct the optimization at a cheaper computational cost. This work introduces an extension to a specific type of surrogates: ensembles of surrogates, enabling them to quantify the uncertainty on the predictions they produce. The resulting extended ensembles of surrogates behave as stochastic models and allow the use of efficient Bayesian optimization tools. The method is incorporated in the search step of the mesh adaptive direct search (MADS) algorithm to improve the exploration of the search space. Computational experiments are conducted on seven analytical problems, two multi-disciplinary optimization problems and two simulation problems. The results show that the proposed approach solves expensive simulation-based problems at a greater precision and with a lower computational effort than stochastic models.
