An exploration of students’ errors in derivatives in a university of technology

This paper reports on an exploration of errors that were displayed by students who studied mathematics in chemical engineering in derivatives of various functions such as algebraic, exponential, logarithmic and trigonometric functions. The participants of this study were a group of twenty students who were at risk in an extended curriculum programme in a university of technology in Western Cape, South Africa. The researcher used a qualitative case study approach and collected data from students’ written work. This research uses action, process, object, and schema (APOS) theory to classify errors into categories and to analyse and interpret the data collected. The students displayed five different kinds of errors, namely, conceptual, interpretation, linear extrapolation, procedural and arbitrary. The use of APOS theory as a framework revealed that several students’ errors might be caused by over-generalisation of mathematical rules and properties such as the power rule of differentiation and distributive property in manipulation of algebraic expressions. This study suggests that teaching of the standard rules of differentiation should put emphasis on its restrictions to eliminate common errors that normally crop up due to over-generalisation of certain differentiation rules.     

伪随机编码超宽带短脉冲的探测能力研究

 为进行弱信号检测,研究在脉冲雷达中获得大信号时间宽度与信号带宽积的方法,利用伪随机编码方法调制超宽带短脉冲,可以在保持子脉冲信号带宽的情况下,以低功率发射长脉冲串类噪声信号,而提高信号的能量,提高探测距离。通过仿真实验得出,利用伪随机编码技术可以使超宽带信号具有更强的探测能力,可以在回波信号功率水平远远小于噪声水平（如信噪比5%）的情况下实现对探测目标的高保真成像。     

A real-coded biogeography-based optimization with mutation

Biogeography-based optimization (BBO) is a new biogeography inspired algorithm for global optimization. There are some open research questions that need to be addressed for BBO. In this paper, we extend the original BBO and present a real-coded BBO approach, referred to as RCBBO, for the global optimization problems in the continuous domain. Furthermore, in order to improve the diversity of the population and enhance the exploration ability of RCBBO, the mutation operator is integrated into RCBBO. Experiments have been conducted on 23 benchmark problems of a wide range of dimensions and diverse complexities. The results indicate the good performance of the proposed RCBBO method. Moreover, experimental results also show that the mutation operator can improve the performance of RCBBO effectively.     

高稳定性无膦配体乙烯氢甲酰化催化体系研究

高活性、高稳定性的无膦配体多相氢甲酰化催化体系研究是催化化学领域的重要课题。本文以乙烯氢甲酰化这一反应为目标,发展出含有不同含氧官能团的活性炭为载体的负载纳米铑催化材料。其中,当以Rh/C-3这一材料为催化剂时,乙烯氢甲酰化反应的转化频率可以达到57889 mol/mol/h。该催化剂可以在固定床反应器上稳定运行2500小时保持活性稳定。表征发现,碳材料表面的内酯基团 (-CO2-)对催化材料的活性和稳定性具有重要的作用。这一研究对高活性、高稳定性的非膦配体多相氢甲酰化催化体系研究具有一定的启示。

Relative calibration for a polarization interference imaging spectrometer

A polarization interference imaging spectrometer (PIIS) for remote sensing is developed. Its operation principle and typical configuration are introduced. A polarization beam-splitter is its key component. The principle of calibration for the PIIS is introduced. The results of relative calibration for the PIIS are given. After the calibration, the responding uniformity of the detector of the PIIS to an expanded uniform light source is largely improved and the quality of the pictures obtained by the PIIS is obviously clear and accurate to the aims. Some applications and expectations of a PIIS are put forward.     

Analysis of Mars Exploration Rover wheel mobility processes and the limitations of classical terramechanics models using discrete element method simulations

A previous three-dimensional discrete element method (DEM) model of Mars Exploration Rovers (MERs) wheel mobility demonstrated agreement with test data for wheel drawbar pull and sinkage for wheel slips from 0.0 to 0.7. Here, results from the previous model are compared with wheel mobility data for non-MER wheels that cover the range of wheel slip from 0.0 to 1.0. Wheel slips near 1.0 are of interest for assessing rover mobility hazards. DEM MER wheel model predictions show close agreement with weight-normalized wheel drawbar pull data from 0.0 to 0.99 wheel slip and show a similar trend for wheel sinkage. The nonlinear increase in MER wheel drawbar pull and sinkage for wheel slips greater that 0.7 is caused by development of a tailings pile behind the wheel as it digs into the regolith.Classical terramechanics wheel mobility equations used in the ARTEMIS MER mobility model are inaccurate above wheel slips of 0.6 as they do not account for the regolith tailings pile behind the wheel. To improve ARTEMIS accuracy at wheel slips greater that 0.6 a lookup table of drawbar pull, wheel torque, and sinkage derived from DEM mobility simulations can be substituted for terramechanics equation calculations.
