    In the welding process, the droplet transfer is of high frequency and is difficult to observe. In order to solve these problems, this paper establishes a high-speed photography system combined with the wavelet analysis of electric signals, with the welding current, the arc voltage and the droplet transfer photography as information resources. The structure and the key techniques of the proposed system are then introduced. The proposed system is finally used to test and analyze the droplet transfer signals of a self-designed pulsed MIG welding power. Experimental results show that, when a short circuit transfer occurs, the characteristics of both the welding current wave and the arc voltage wave greatly change, which helps to control the welding process. However, when the spray flow and the spray droplet transfers occur, the welding current and the arc voltage waves are both smooth without obvious changes. Thus, the droplet transfer process can be tested and controlled by extracting the characteristic information of droplet transfer pictures.

    Both theoretical analysis and experimental practice have shown that an appropriate distribution of residual compressive stress on machined surface can improve the surface quality of machine parts and prolong the contact fatigue life. In order to eliminate the residual stress on the outside race surface of bearing ring, this paper uses the pre-stress hard cutting method to initiatively control the residual stress state on the bearing rings surface and hence to improve the fatigue life. Three different processing methods for bearing rings, namely the hard dry cutting, the pre-stress hard cutting and the grinding are then implemented by experiments, and the corresponding residual stress and hardness of the machined surface are compared and analyzed. Moreover, the morphology and texture characteristics of the machined surface are investigated. The results indicate that the pre-stress hard cutting helps to obtain suitabe residual compressive stress state and good surface quality for the machined surface of bearing rings.

    In order to forecast and control the friction process, the thermal vibration of interfacial atoms stimulated by the interfacial potential energy field is analyzed, and a calculating model of sliding friction coefficient is established based on the thermal dynamic coupling process. Calculated results indicate that the sliding friction coefficient increases with the relative sliding velocity but has nothing to do with the real contact area of friction surface when the area linearly varies with the load. However, when the real contact area is close to the nominal one, the sliding friction coefficient decreases with the increase of the load, It is also found that, with the increase of crystal lattice constant and the decrease of atomic mass, the sliding friction coefficient decreases.

    One droplet per pulse is the most ideal mode of droplet transfer for pulsed metal active gas (MAG) welding. In order to meet the requirements of this transfer mode, this paper adopts constant peak and base phases to implement the current external characteristics, and uses the pulse frequency modulation (PFM) combined with the high-frequency inverter and the DSP digital control to adjust the average current and to further control the melting velocity of the welding wire. Thus, the difficulty in the arc length control is overcome. Experimental results indicate that the PFM-based average current modulation implements the droplet transfer control of pulsed MAG welding with high stability and good welding quality.

    In this paper, long copper fibers with different surficial roughness were fabricated on a common horizontal lathe with multi-edge tool, and were then compared with those fabricated by the drawing method. Coarse antlers were found on the surface of the copper fibers fabricated with multi-edge tool by means of SEM photographs. Moreover, some cutting experiments were performed to reveal the influence of cutting parameters on the surface structures of copper fibers. The results indicate that, as compared with the back engagement and the feed rate, the cutting speed influences the surface structure of copper fibers most greatly. It is thus concluded that low cutting speed as well as suitable back engagement and feed rate accordant to the equal diameter helps to obtain long copper fibers with coarse antlers.

    In slashing running conditions, the bulging deformation of coke drums may appear after some years. In order to avoid the deformation, this paper analyzes the deformation mechanism of coke drums, and uses the bending theory of cylindrical shell to reveal the internal force and the displacement of the coke drum body suffering from temperature stress and inner compressive force. According to the Mises yield rule, it is found that, as part of the drum body yields during the process of temperature decreasing, a periodical plastic residual deformation occurs and increases with the running cycles of coke drums. It is thus concluded that the bulging deformation of coke drums mainly results from the progressive plastic deformation.

    In this paper, the theory of fractal was introduced to investigate the dynamics of dendrite growth during jet electrodeposition and to further control the growth of dendrites. In the investigation, the modified diffusion-limited aggregation (DLA) model was adopted and the Microsoft Visual C + + 6.0 programming was performed to simu- late the morphology of the two-dimension dentrite cluster obtained by the jet electrodeposition with parallel plate electrode. Moreover, by using parallel Ni plate as the anode and graphite plate as the cathode, two-dimension Ni dendrites were manufactured by a self-designed jet electrodeposition system to verify the simulated results. It is found that the Ni dendrites possess the character of fractals and are similar to those simulated by the DLA model, meaning that the proposed model is helpful to the experimental investigation of jet electrodeposition with parallel plate electrode.

    The existing explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) robots are usually operated manually and are hard to operate. In order to solve this problem, this paper develops a single-hand and binocular eye-in-hand system based on binocular stereo vision for the semi-intelligent EOD robot. The system uses Matlab7.0 as the calculation engine and adopts the pattern matching library EasyMatch in machine vision software eVision6.2 to perform the stereo matching. It can capture real-time images and make camera calibrations, image preprocessing as well as feature point matching. It can also determine the coordinate of suspicious objects, display real-time images on the console, and control the semi-intelligent EOD robot to grasp suspicious objects automatically and accurately. Experimental results show that the proposed system is of a relative error of less than 2.54% , which meets the practical requirements of EOD robots.

    In a production environment with flexible resources, the number of operators assigned to work-centers plays an important role in the punctual delivery of products. In this paper, a dual resource-based scheduling problem of flexible production systems is discussed, with the minimum earliness/tardiness (E/T) penalty as the objective. In the investigation, the statement and assumption of the scheduling problem are described, the strategies for the scheduling problem are presented, and a heuristic scheduling algorithm of E/T penalty is proposed. The perfor- mances of the proposed algorithm are then evaluated and compared with those of other approaches by simulation. The results indicate that the proposed algorithm is effective and practical in solving the scheduling problem in the flexible production systems based on dual resource.

    In this paper, a two-level hierarchical scheduling scheme is presented for the application-oriented hybrid real-time tasks (HRTF). In this scheme, the time-triggered and the event-triggered modes are adopted for periodic real-time and aperiodic tasks respectively, and a task model is established, with the related concepts being also defined. Then, the structure of the scheduling scheme is proposed, and some crucial technologies such as scheduling algorithm, schedulability, jitter, tick-interval and optimal scheduling scheme are investigated. Moreover, some experiments combined with Windows CE. NET are performed to validate the scheduling scheme. The results show that the proposed scheme improves the certainty of HRTT and reduces the jitter. The effects of tick-interval on CPU utilization and period resolution are finally discussed.

    In this paper, the scheduling of independent tasks on the tree-based grid where resources have different computation and communication speeds is discussed. In contrast to minimizing the total execution time of tasks, this paper proposes an improved integral linear planning model. In order to overcome the time complexity when calculating the optimal number of tasks assigned to each node of the multi-level tree, the Push-Pull method is adopted to transform the linear planning of multi-level tree into a single-level one, thus greatly reducing the time complexity. Moreover, according to the calculated approximate number of the assigned optimal tasks, a static distributed heuristic task scheduling algorithm is put forward. Analytical and experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has better performance than other ones in the condition of scheduling lots of independent tasks on heterogeneous tree-based grid.

    The current routing algorithms of label switching path (LSP) used in multi-protocol label switching (MPLS) networks may result in the interference between different selected LSPs and in a low utilization rate of network resources. In order to solve these problems, a novel minimum interference routing algorithm based on the channel resistance is presented. In this algorithm, the channel resistance is defined and calculated for each link be- tween different source-destination pairs, thus obtaining the resistance distribution on each edge. Moreover, the link resistance is considered as the weight to find the minimum interference path via the Dijkstra algorithm. Simulated results show that the proposed algorithm has better anti-interference and network resource balancing performances.

    In the generational scheduling (GS) algorithm, only the partial orders between tasks are considered during the generation division, and the effect of the task partition on the total scheduling time is entirely ignored. Besides, as the existing independent scheduling algorithms employed by the local scheduling consider the makespan of task subsets only, there may result in the absence of global optimization. In order to solve these problems, a modified algorithm named GA-DLTPF is presented based on GS. GA-DLTPF performs the generation adjustment based on the generation division of GS, and ensures the priority of the longest through path for the local scheduling according to the definition of through path. Simulated results indicate that GA-DLTPF is of better scheduling performance than the improved GS algorithm OGS, especially in the condition of deep task graph.

    As the existing IP-Anycast approaches can not simultaneously achieve the scalability and the efficient group member selection, this paper proposes a tunnel-based scalable global IP-Anycast approach named TGIA. TGIA, transparent to both the upper protocol and the applications, transfers the Anycast request on its main path, combines the advantages of Unicast with IP-Tunnel to efficiently select the best group member, and controls the size of routing table by flooding the Anycast server information in a small region. Thus, the scalability of Anycast is implemented to a certain degree. Simulated results have proved the correctness and effectiveness of TGIA in IP- Anycast service.

    Clock synchronization is a basic requirement for many network applications. In this paper, a distributed multi-host clock synchronization system based on ring topology is designed and implemented. In the proposed system, the Altair & Vega method oriented to one-way delay measurement is adopted to realize the synchronization between multiple hosts, and the dynamic logic ring topology approach and the accumulated synchronous errors on the ring topology are employed to improve the system accuracy. Thus, a high-precision correcting method of relative clock skew is proposed. Test results indicate that the synchronization precision of the proposed method can be controlled in millisecond scale due to the accumulated error revision.

    At present, there are few effective models to evaluate the security of steganography. In this paper, first, a model to describe the statistical distribution of the discrete cosine transform (DCT) coefficients of an image is es- tablished, and a model based on the information-theory definition of steganography security is presented to measure the security of steganography in the DCT domain. The securities of several steganographic techniques in both spatial and DCT domains are then compared. Moreover, some experiments are performed to measure the effects of the methods of model solving, the size of hiding message, the block size in DCT, the embedding position and the dou- ble compression on the security evaluation. The results show that the proposed model is an effective model, which provides valuable references for the design of steganography and steganalytic algorithms.

    Although Linux kernel supports the concept of real-time tasks, it does not provide effective scheduling policies. Besides, as for the classical priority-based scheduling algorithms such as Rate Monotonic (RM) and Earliest Deadline First (EDF) that have been widely applied to real-time systems, priorities are usually determined only by a simple or single factor. Thus, the deadlines of emergency tasks can not be guaranteed and the system resources can not be effectively utilized. In order to solve this problem, this paper proposes a new real-time scheduling algorithm named SBRD (Scheduler Based on RM and EDF). In this algorithm, the priority is determined by both the importance and the urgency. Experimental results show that SBRD possesses the virtues of both RM and EDF. In SBRD, urgent tasks are given priority in the precondition of guaranteeing important tasks. Thus, the deadlines of more tasks can be guaranteed and the CPU resource can be used more effectively. As compared with the real-time scheduling provided by standard Linux, SBRD is more effective.

    In this paper, three novel fuzzy clustering models are proposed based on the principle of cluster center separation. In the investigation, first, a fuzzy clustering model named FCM CCS is proposed by adding a cluster center separation item to the objective function of fuzzy C-means (FCM) algorithm to extend FCM algorithm based on the principle of cluster center separation. FCM_CCS enlarges the distance between cluster centers during the clustering and results in a better clustering effect. Then, a possibilistic clustering model named PCM_CCS is pre- sented to overcome the noise sensitivity of FCM_CCS. Finally, PCM_CCS is extended to its possibilistic fuzzy clustering model named PFCM_CCS. PFCM_CCS is of good performance in dealing with noisy data and in overcoming co- incident clusters. The test results of data sets show that PFCM_CCS simultaneously produces fuzzy membership values and typicality values, and possesses larger cluster center distance than FCM and higher clustering accuracy than FCM_CCS.

    In order to efficiently separate high-purity active components from Andrographis paniculata, a high-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) procedure was developed for the preparative separation and purification of four bioactive compounds from the crude extract of the plant in a simultaneous process. The procedure was performed in a two-phase solvent system of n-hexane-ethyl acetate-ethanol-water ( in a volume ratio of 1 : 4:2.3 : 2.7 ) at a flowrate of 2.0 mL/min. By determining the physicochemical properties and according to the results of MS, 1 HNMR and 13 CNMR, the four separated compounds were identified as 14-deoxy-andrographolide-19-β-D-glucosides ( Ⅰ ), neoandrographolide ( Ⅱ ), andrographolide ( Ⅲ ) and 14-deoxy-andrographolide ( Ⅳ ). Moreover, 56. 8, 1.5, 108.3 and 218.0 mg of compounds Ⅰ - Ⅳ were respectively prepared from 500mg of crude extract by the proposed procedure, with the purities of 98.5% , 92.5% , 96.2% and 93.6% and the recoveries of 95.5% , 97.8%, 93.2% and 91.9%, respectively.

    In this paper, the gene chip technology was adopted to reveal the difference in gene expression profile between the HL60 leukemia cells exposed to millimeter wave (MMW) at 41.32GHz and the sham-exposed group. The gene expressions of IL-7, EGF and LGALS3 were then confirmed by means of RTR-PCR method. The results show that, after the MMW radiation for 60 min, HL60 cells proliferate and 18 up-regulated genes and 306 downregulated genes are found, and that the down-regulated genes of IL-7, EGF and LGALS3 obtained by RT-PCR method are consistent with those obtained by gene chip technology. It is thus concluded that the radiation of MMW promotes the proliferation of HL60 cells by altering the gene expression profile.

    In order to reveal the changes in the microscopic structure and the cell membrane fluidity of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S. cerervisiae) , magnetic fields were taken as the external physical fields to treat S. cerervisiae in two modes, namely, the static magnetic field (SMF) treatment and the magnetic cycling treatment. According to the TEM results of microscopic structure of the cells treated by SMF with different magnetic flux intensities, it is found that SMF stimulates the growth of S. cerevisiae cells, and that the ratio of mature cells with large central vacuoles in the colony increases. Swell and hyperplasia of mitochondria are also observed after the stimuli for their adaptability. From the atomic force microscopy (AFM) photographs that exhibit the 3D structures of yeast cells with magnetic cycling treatment, it is found that the surface of the cell wall wrinkles, the magnetoporation appears, and the cytosol leaks. The results of fluorescence polarization show that, after the SMF treatment at different magnetic flux intensities, the anisotropism of the cell membrane decreases while the membrane fluidity increases, and that the r-value decreases by 3.57% at 0.05T. However, after the magnetic cycling treatment, the r-value increases by 8.46% while the membrane fluidity decreases, which means that the cell membrane is a subcellular fraction influenced by magnetic fields.

    In order to apply tachyplesin, a high-perforvaance and broad-spectrum antibacterial peptide to the pharmaceutical industry, the biological stability of tachyplesin varying with the temperature, the pH value and the proteinases such as trypsin, pepsin, elastase and caboxypeptidase B was investigated and was described by the minimal inhibitory concentration ( MIC ). Moreover, the stability of molecular structure was evaluated by the peak change in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The results indicate that (1) at 120℃, when the pH value reaches 11.30, the MIC of tachyplesin against E. Coli K88 ranges from 1.25 to 5.0 mg/L and the residual content of tachyplesin detected by HPLC varies from 65. 46 to 70. 21 μg; (2) tachyplesin is sensitive to trypsin, carboxypeptidase B and elastase, but remains stable with pepsin; and (3) tachyplesin is stable in the solution with the pepsin, trypsin carboxypeptidase B and elastase contents of not more than 5. 33 mmol/( s· L), 0. 33 mmol/( s · L ), 0. 17 mmol/( s·L) and 0. 021 mmol/(s · L), respectively. It is thus concluded that tachyplesin is of high heat resistance, good stability and excellent anti-enzymatic degradability.
