Percentile residual life orders

In this paper we study a family of stochastic orders of random variables defined via the comparison of their percentile residual life functions. Some interpretations of these stochastic orders are given, and various properties of them are derived. The relationships to other stochastic orders are also studied. Finally, some applications in reliability theory and finance are described. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Atomic short-range order in CuMn alloys

The establishment of atomic short-range order (SRO) has been investigated in CuMn alloys (5, 8,13,16,20 at. % Mn) by measurement of the electrical resistivity during isochronal and isothermal annealing. An increasing degree of SRO is accompanied by a reduction of resistivity; this effect increases with Mn concentration. For 8,13 and 16 at. % Mn SRO kinetics turn out to deviate significantly from single exponential behavior with a maximum at 13 at. % Mn, whereas at 5 and 20 at. % Mn SRO is adjusted in a single exponential process. For data analysis three methods are used: a sum of two and three exponentials as well as a log-normal spectrum of relaxation times. The strong interaction between second-nearest-neighbor atoms in CuMn seems to be essential for SRO kinetics but of minor importance for the value of SRO-induced resistivity change.     

New strain standards for glass-ware stress photoelastic evaluation

Strain viewers are used for residual strain evaluation and assessment of glassware. Most viewers are the crossed-nicol type photoelastic apparatus with tint plates, in which the tint colour in the field of view changes with the insertion of strained glassware. Strain standards, which give known or predetermined optical path differences, are necessary for qualitative evaluation of residual internal stress in glassware. Two types of new strain standards, namely rotary-plate type and film-array type, are proposed and presented in detail.     

Dynamic Behavior of Rigid–Plastic Sector Plates

The paper studies the dynamic behavior of perfect rigid-plastic plates in the form of a sector with hinged or clamped sides under short-term intensive loads. Two dynamic deformation mechanisms are demonstrated. The dynamic equation is derived for each of the mechanisms. The realization conditions for the mechanisms are analyzed. Analytical expressions are derived for the ultimate (high) loads and the maximum residual deflection. Numerical examples are given     

计算机辅助彩色立体图像生成中的误差分析与处理

柱透镜光栅的计算机辅助立体成像的基本原理是将二维序列图像进行切分和重组,使之以三维模型的形式展现,使合成的图像在柱透镜光栅下观察时具有"纵深感"。该项技术在广告、摄影、电影制作中具有广泛的应用。但是长期以来,在图像切分时并不能保证像素一定被整除,这意味着剩余像素的出现,合成的立体图像必然存在误差。如何处理剩余像素的问题一直是个难题,阻碍了该技术的推广。针对立体图像生成方法中的剩余像素问题,详尽地分析了误差的形成,并提出了强行取整算法和误差分散算法两种误差处理方法。实验表明,这两种算法能较好的处理剩余像素,增强了合成图像的立体效果,这将有助于立体成像技术的进一步推广。     

Cholinesterase sensors based on screen-printed electrodes for detection of organophosphorus and carbamic pesticides

Cholinesterase sensors based on screen-printed electrodes modified with polyaniline, 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ), and Prussian blue have been developed and tested for detection of anticholinesterase pesticides in aqueous solution and in spiked grape juice. The influence of enzyme source and detection mode on biosensor performance was explored. It was shown that modification of the electrodes results in significant improvement of their analytical characteristics for pesticide determination. Thus, the slopes of the calibration curves obtained with modified electrodes were increased twofold and the detection limits of the pesticides were reduced by factors of 1.6 to 1.8 in comparison with the use of unmodified transducers. The biosensors developed make it possible to detect down to 2×10^–8 mol L^–1 chloropyrifos-methyl, 5×10^–8 mol L^–1 coumaphos, and 8×10^–9 mol L^–1 carbofuran in aqueous solution and grape juice. The optimal conditions for grape juice pretreatment were determined to diminish interference from the sample matrix.Abbreviations ChE Cholinesterase - TCNQ 7,7,8,8-Tetracyanoquinodimethane - ChO Choline oxidase - AChE Acetylcholinesterase - BChE Butyrylcholinesterase - BSA Bovine serum albumin - 2-PAM 2-Pyridine aldoxime methiodide     

Hilbert Functions, Residual Intersections, and Residually S2 Ideals

Let R be a homogeneous ring over an infinite field, IR a homogeneous ideal, and I an ideal generated by s forms of degrees d ₁,...,d _s so that codim( :I)s. We give broad conditions for when the Hilbert function of R/ or of R/( :I) is determined by I and the degrees d ₁,...,d _s . These conditions are expressed in terms of residual intersections of I, culminating in the notion of residually S ₂ ideals. We prove that the residually S ₂ property is implied by the vanishing of certain Ext modules and deduce that generic projections tend to produce ideals with this property.

利用XRD技术测试了镀锌钝化膜结合界面的残余应力，同时通过电解抛光法检测了其厚度方向残余应力的分布规律，分析了残余应力对镀锌钝化膜结合强度的影响. 试验结果表明，镀锌钝化膜的残余应力均表现为压应力，并随着基体表面残余应力的增大而减小；钝化膜在2—10μm厚度方向的残应力为-274.5—-428.3MPa，其应力为梯度分布；镀锌钝化膜与基体的界面结合强度与其残余应力成反比，减小薄膜残余应力，有利于提高镀锌钝化膜与基体的结合强度. 关键词： X射线衍射法(XRD) 镀锌钝化膜 结合强度 残余应力
