在PowerPoint演示文稿中轻松插入Flash动画

用PowerPoint制作出的幻灯片简洁明快、条理清晰,而且PowerPoint简单易用,非常适合教师上课使用,成为教师制作多媒体课件的工具之一(在我校大部分教师采用PowerPoint制作多媒体课件).在制作多媒体课件过程中,结合适当的媒体技术(动画、声音、文字)不仅能提高课件的直观生动性,激发学生学习兴趣,同时有助于学生对课堂知识的当堂消化和理解,加深记忆.通过我校开展多媒体教学多年的实践发现:对医科学生的基础课、专业基础课和专业课教学中广泛涉及的机能性、原理性的知识适当采用动画其教学效果是传统教学方法无法比拟的.在众多的动画媒体中(avi、mov、mpg、swf、gif、ram等),Flash动画(swf文件)以其作品容量小(单个swf文件通常不到100 K)、质量高和丰富的交互性,特别是近年推出的Flash5同时能结合视频和音频,成为目前最为流行的二维动画.不仅为网页制作增添了活力,同时也为多媒体制作提供了有效的手段,既精巧又实用,素有"闪客"、"动画精灵"之美誉,越来越受到人们的青睐.如果要把Flash制作好的动画插入到PowerPoint制作的课件中,将会使PowerPoint单调的动画增色不少,使课件更具魅力.为此,我校专门开展了一系列Flash动画制作讲座,广大教师都能结合本专业制作Flash动画.如何将Flash动画加入到PowerPoint中,不少教师都是直接通过"超级连接"导入Flash课件,放映时总会出现讨厌的警告信息和警告声音提示,点击确定后打开Flash课件,有时打开的Flash课件窗口还要重新调整,使用十分不便.如何才能更恰当地引入Flash动画呢?不少杂志刊物和网上发表过类似文章,但大都比较复杂,而且在使用中特别是在PowerPoint中放映Flash动画偶尔会出现这样和那样的问题,这也是我们教学工作中经常遇到的问题,具有一定的普遍性.经过与教师们的众多交流和笔者平时反复摸索,找到了较为简便有效的方法,写出来与大家分享.     

Automorphisms with only infinite orbits on non-algebraic elements

 This paper generalizes results of F. K?rner from [4] where she established the existence of maximal automorphisms (i.e. automorphisms moving all non-algebraic elements). An ω-maximal automorphism is an automorphism whose powers are maximal automorphisms. We prove that any structure has an elementary extension with an ω-maximal automorphism. We also show the existence of ω-maximal automorphisms in all countable arithmetically saturated structures. Further we describe the pairs of tuples (ˉa,ˉb) for which there is an ω-maximal automorphism mapping ˉa to ˉb.

On a compromise social choice correspondence

This paper analyzes the compromise social choice correspondence derived from the τ-value of digraph games. Monotonicity of this correspondence is shown. A connection between several properties of social choice correspondences based on game theoretical solutions and game theoretical properties of the underlying solutions is given. Applications to several game theoretic solutions are provided.     

A laser Doppler anemometry technique for Reynolds stresses measurement

A technique is described for the measurement of all components of mean velocity and Reynolds stresses, in a complex turbulent flow where achieving coincidence data acquisition is difficult. The method is based on data recorded using four orientations of the laser probe. It is shown that the measurement errors are not the same for all the components of the Reynolds tensor, but they are sufficiently small to give a good accuracy. An application to a turbomachinery flow is given to illustrate the method.     

Nano-tribological study on a super-hydrophobic film formed on rough aluminium substrates

A novel super-hydrophobic stearic acid (STA) film with a water contact angle of 166^o was prepared by chemical adsorption on aluminum wafer coated with polyethyleneimine (PEI) film. The micro-tribological behavior of the super-hydrophobic STA monolayer was compared with that of the polished and PEI-coated Al surfaces. The effect of relative humidity on the adhesion and friction was investigated as well. It was found that the STA monolayer showed decreased friction, while the adhesive force was greatly decreased by increasing the surface roughness of the Al wafer to reduce the contact area between the atomic force microscope (AFM) tip and the sample surface to be tested. Thus the friction and adhesion of the Al wafer was effectively decreased by generating the STA monolayer, which indicated that it could be feasible and rational to prepare a surface with good adhesion resistance and lubricity by properly controlling the surface morphology and the chemical composition. Both the adhesion and friction decreased as the relative humidity was lowered from 65% to 10%, though the decrease extent became insignificant for the STA monolayer.

Photorefractive Four-Wave Mixing Switches Utilizing Pockels Effect -Longitudinal and Lateral Switches-

We carried out detailed calculations for photorefractive wave-mixing switches based on one of three crystals with high electro-optic coefficients, namely, BaTiO₃, Strontium Barium Niobate (SBN (0.75)), and Potasium Sodium Strontium Barium Niobate (KNSBN). A comparison of results for the three crystals shows that a 0_-cut BaTiO³ crystal is suitable for a longitudinal switch and requires a voltage of about 80 for a 2-mm-thick crystal to induce sufficient phase mismatch. The electrodes must be transparent for the incident and diffracted beams. A 45_-cut SBN (0.75) crystal, however, is suitable for a lateral switch and requires a voltage of about 150 for a 1-mm-wide crystal. The electrodes do not need to be transparent.     

Errata: “Universality in Orthogonal and Symplectic Invariant Matrix Models with Quartic Potential”

The errata concern mainly the last computations for the universality of the local statistics of eigenvalues at the edge of the spectrum in parts (iii) of Theorems 2.3 and 2.4.     

Color Zone Map in Peripheral Vision at Various Illuminance Levels

We measured the entire region of mesopic and photopic vision to determine the color zone covering the visual field with unique red, yellow, green, and blue hue components. Eight kinds of test stimuli in the natural color system (NCS) color notation system were used. These stimuli were presented at horizontal and vertical meridians, and at meridians inclined at 45° angles. The illuminance level was set at six levels: 0.01 lx-1000 lx. The evaluation method measured chromatic, white, and black components as well as the hue component of the stimuli. Results show that the color zone of the retina extended further into the periphery with increasing illuminance; the response of opponent colors y-b was shown to be greater than that of the opponent colors r-g.
