Research and Application of Non-symmetrical Roll Bending Control of Cold Rolling Mill

The existing research of the flatness control for strip cold rolling mainly focuses on the calculation of the optimum adjustment of individual flatness actuator in accordance with the flatness deviation, which can be used for general flatness control. However, it does not work for some special rolling processes, such as the elimination of ultra single side edge-waves and the prevention of strip break due to tilting roll control overshooting. For the purpose of solving these problems, the influences of non-symmetrical work roll bending and intermediate roll bending on flatness control were analyzed by studying efficiencies of them. Moreover, impacts of two kinds of non-symmetrical roll bending control on the pressure distribution between rolls were studied theoretically. A non-symmetrical work roll bending model was developed by theoretical analysis in accordance with practical conditions. The model was applied to the revamp of a 1250 6-H reversible universal crown mill (UCM) cold mill. Theoretical study and practical applications show that the coordination utilization of the non-symmetrical work roll bending control and tilting roll control was effective in flatness control when there appeared bad strip single side edge waves, especially when the incoming strip was with a wedge shape. In addition, the risk of strip break due to tilting control overshooting could be reduced. Furthermore, the non-symmetrical roll bending control can reduce the extent of uneven distribution of pressure between rolls caused by intermediate roll shifting in flatness control and slow down roll wear. The non-symmetrical roll bending control technology has important theoretical and practical significance to better flatness control.

Synthesis and characterization of non-symmetrical liquid crystals containing a cholesteryl ester moiety

In this paper, a series of chiral non-symmetrical liquid crystals （nBA-chol） consisting of a cholesteryl ester moiety as chiral entity and a biphenyl aromatic core with different terminal alkyl chain has been synthesized and investigated for their liquid crystalline properties. Effects of numbers of methylene units in the terminal alkyl chain on the phase transition temperatures and on the temperature-dependent pitch lengths of the chiral liquid crystals have been studied. The long terminal alkyl chain tends to exhibit smectic A mesophases. The pitch lengths of the cholesteric mesophases of the chiral liquid crystals decrease with increasing temperature and with increasing numbers of methylene units in the terminal alkyl chain, respectively.

Analysis of non-symmetrical flapping airfoils

Simulations have been done to assess the lift, thrust and propulsive efficiency of different types of non-symmetrical airfoils under different flapping configurations. The variables involved are reduced frequency, Strouhal number, pitch amplitude and phase angle. In order to analyze the variables more efficiently, the design of experiments using the response surface methodology is applied. Results show that both the variables and shape of the airfoil have a profound effect on the lift, thrust, and efficiency. By using non- symmetrical airfoils, average lift coefficient as high as 2.23 can be obtained. The average thrust coefficient and efficiency also reach high values of 2.53 and 0.61, respectively. The lift production is highly dependent on the airfoil＇s shape while thrust production is influenced more heavily by the variables. Efficiency falls somewhere in between. Two-factor interac- tions are found to exist among the variables. This shows that it is not sufficient to analyze each variable individually. Vorticity diagrams are analyzed to explain the results obtained. Overall, the S1020 airfoil is able to provide relatively good efficiency and at the same time generate high thrust and lift force. These results aid in the design of a better ornithopter＇s wing.

An iris recognition method based on multi-orientation features and Non-symmetrical SVM

A new iris feature extraction approach using both spatial and frequency domain is presented. Steerable pyramid is adopted to get the orientation information on iris images. The feature sequence is extracted on each sub-image and used to train Support Vector Machine (SVM) as iris classifiers. SVM has drawn great interest recently as one of the best classifiers in machine learning, although there is a problem in the use of traditional SVM for iris recognition. It cannot treat False Accept and False Reject differently with different security requirements. Therefore, a new kind of SVM called Non-symmetrical SVM is presented to classify the iris features. Experimental data shows that Non-symmetrical SVM can satisfy various security requirements in iris recognition applications. Feature sequence combined with spatial and frequency domain represents the variation details of the iris patterns properly. The results in this study demonstrate the potential of our new approach, and show that it performs more satis- factorily when compared to former algorithms.

Experimental study of noncontact ultrasonic motor with non-symmetrical electrode

We have proposed a novel noncontact ultrasonic motor based on non-syinmetrical electrode driving. The configuration of this electrode and the fabrication process of rotors are presented. Its vibration characteristics are computed and analysed by using the finite element method and studied experimentally. Good agreement between them is obtained. Moreover, it is also shown that this noncontact ultrasonic motor is operated in antisymmetric radial vibration mode of B21 mode. The maximum revolution speed for three-blade and six-blade rotors are 5100 and 3700r/min at an input voltage of 20V, respectively. Also, the noncontact high-speed revolution of the rotors can be realized by the parts of Ⅰ, Ⅲ of the electrode or Ⅱ, Ⅳ of the electrode. The levitation distance between the s tator and rotor is about 140μm according to the theoretical calculation and the experimental measurement.

Construction of Non-Symmetric Balanced Incomplete Block Design through Combination of Symmetric Disjoint Balanced Incomplete Block Designs

The existence of several non-symmetric balanced incomplete block designs (BIBDs) is still unknown. This is because the non-existence property for non-symmetric BIBDs is still not known and also the existing construction methods have not been able to construct these designs despite their design parameters satisfying the necessary conditions for the existence of BIBD. The study aimed to bridge this gap by introducing a new class of non-symmetric BIBDs. The proposed class of BIBDs is constructed through the combination of disjoint symmetric BIBDs. The study was able to determine that the total number of disjoint symmetric BIBDs (n) with parameters (v = b, r = k, λ) that can be obtained from an un-reduced BIBD with parameters (v, k) is given by n = r - λ. When the n symmetric disjoint BIBDs are combined, then a new class of symmetric BIBDs is formed with parameters v* = v, b* = nb, r* = nr, k* = k, λ* = λ, where 2≤ n ≤ r - λ. The study established that the non-existence property of this class of BIBD was that when is not a perfect square then v should be even and when v* is odd then the equation should not have a solution in integers x, y, z which are not all simultaneously zero. In conclusion, the study showed that this construction technique can be used to construct some non-symmetric BIBDs. However, one must first construct the disjoint symmetric BIBDs before one can construct the non-symmetric BIBD. Thus, the disjoint symmetric BIBDs must exist first before the non-symmetric BIBDs exist.

A NOTE ON PERTURBATION OF NON-SYMMETRIC DIRICHLET FORMS BY SIGNED SMOOTH MEASURES

This article discusses the perturbation of a non-symmetric Dirichlet form, （ε, D（ε））, by a signed smooth measure u, where u=u1 -u2 with u1 and u2 being smooth measures. It gives a sufficient condition for the perturbed form （ε^u ,D（ε^u）） （for some a0 ≥ 0） to be a coercive closed form.

Multi-party dense coding in non-symmetric quantum channel

A three- and an （N＋ 1）-party dense coding scheme in the case of non-symmetric Hilbert spaces of the particles of a quantum channel are investigated by using a multipartite entangled state. In the case of the （N ＋ 1）-party dense coding scheme, we show that the amount of classical information transmitted from N senders to one receiver is improved.

Quantum Dialogue by Using Non-Symmetric Quantum Channel

A protocol for quantum dialogue is proposed to exchange directly the communicator＇s secret messages by using a three-dimensional Bell state and a two-dimensional Bell state as quantum channel with quantum superdence coding, local collective unitary operations, and entanglement swapping. In this protocol, during the process of trans- mission of particles, the transmitted particles do not carry any secret messages and are transmitted only one time. The protocol has higher source capacity than protocols using symmetric two-dimensional states. The security is ensured by the unitary operations randomly performed on all checking groups before the particle sequence is transmitted and the application of entanglement swapping.

Revisiting Controlled Quantum Secure Direct Communication Using a Non-symmetric Quantum Channel with Quantum Superdense Coding

Recently Xia and Song [Phys. Lett. A 364 （2007） 117] have proposed a controlled quantum secure direct communication （CQSDC） protocol. They claimed that in their protocol only with the help of the controller Charlie, the receiver Alice can successfully extract the secret message from the sender Bob. In this letter, first we will show that within their protocol the controller Charlie＇s role could have been excluded if it were not for their unreasonable design. We then revise the Xia-Song CQSDC protocol such that its original advantages are reta/ned and the CQSDC can be really realized.

Robust Stability of Nonlinear Plants with a Non-symmetric Prandtl-Ishlinskii Hysteresis Model

In this paper, robust stability of nonlinear plants represented by non-symmetric Prandtl-Ishlinskii （PI） hysteresis model is studied. In general, PI hysteresis model is the weighted superposition of play or stop hysteresis operators, and the slopes of the operators are considered to be the same. In order to make a hysteresis model, a modified form of non-symmetric play hysteresis operator with unknown slopes is given. The hysteresis model is described by a generalized Lipschitz operator term and a bounded parasitic term. Since the generalized Lipschitz operator is unknown, a new condition using robust right coprime factorization is proposed to guarantee robust stability of the controlled plant with the hysteresis nonlinearity. As a result, based on the proposed robust condition, a stabilized plant is obtained. A numerical example is presented to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Derivative of a Determinant with Respect to an Eigenvalue in the <i>LDU</i>Decomposition of a Non-Symmetric Matrix

We demonstrate that, when computing the LDU decomposition (a typical example of a direct solution method), it is possible to obtain the derivative of a determinant with respect to an eigenvalue of a non-symmetric matrix. Our proposed method augments an LDU decomposition program with an additional routine to obtain a program for easily evaluating the derivative of a determinant with respect to an eigenvalue. The proposed method follows simply from the process of solving simultaneous linear equations and is particularly effective for band matrices, for which memory requirements are significantly reduced compared to those for dense matrices. We discuss the theory underlying our proposed method and present detailed algorithms for implementing it.

A Non-symmetric Digital Image Secure Communication Scheme Based on Generalized Chaos Synchronization System

Based on a generalized chaos synchronization system and a discrete Sinai map, a non-symmetric true color （RGB） digital image secure communication scheme is proposed. The scheme first changes an ordinary RGB digital image with 8 bits into unrecognizable disorder codes and then transforms the disorder codes into an RGB digital image with 16 bits for transmitting. A receiver uses a non-symmetric key to verify the authentication of the received data origin, and decrypts the ciphertext. The scheme can encrypt and decz：Fpt most formatted digital RGB images recognized by computers, and recover the plaintext almost without any errors. The scheme is suitable to be applied in network image communications. The analysis of the key space, sensitivity of key parameters, and correlation of encrypted images imply that this scheme has sound security.

Basic solution of two parallel non-symmetric permeable cracks in piezoelectric materials

The behavior of two parallel non-symmetric cracks in piezoelectric materials subjected to the anti-plane shear loading was studied by the Schmidt method for the permeable crack electric boundary conditions. Through the Fourier transform, the present problem can be solved with two pairs of dual integral equations in which the unknown variables are the jumps of displacements across crack surfaces. To Solve the dual integral equations, the jumps of displacements across crack surfaces were directly expanded in a series of Jacobi polynomials. Finally, the relations between electric displacement intensity factors and stress intensity factors at crack tips can be obtained. Numerical examples are provided to show the effect of the distance between two cracks upon stress and electric displacement intensity factors at crack tips. Contrary to the impermeable crack surface condition solution, it is found that electric displacement intensity factors for the permeable crack surface conditions are much smaller than those for the impermeable crack surface conditions. At the same time, it can be found that the crack shielding effect is also present in the piezoelectric materials.

A Laboratory Model for the Flow in Urban Street Canyons Induced by Bottom Heating

Water tank experiments are carried out to investigate the convection flow induced by bottom heating and the effects of the ambient wind on the flow in non-symmetrical urban street canyons based on the PIV (Particle Image Visualization) technique. Fluid experiments show that with calm ambient wind, the flows in the street canyon are completely driven by thermal force, and the convection can reach the upper atmosphere of the street canyon. Horizontal and vertical motions also appear above the roofs of the buildings. These are the conditions which favor the exchange of momentum and air mass between the street canyon and its environment. More than two vortices are induced by the convection, and the complex circulation pattern will vary with time in a wider street canyon. However, in a narrow street canyon, just one vortex appears. With a light ambient wind, the bottom heating and the associated convection result in just one main vortex. As the ambient wind speed increases, the vortex becomes more organized and its center shifts closer to the leeward building.

Effect of Mathematical Models on Experimental Data for the Gas and Liquids

The new analysis of the influence the method of calculating macro-parameters to experimental data is made for the mixture a rarefied gas and gas with internal degrees of freedom. The delay process is counted, which is important in describing of the discrete space and in describing the relaxation of the complicated molecules. The analysis of the recording the Lagrangian function for the collective interaction of the particles is made with counting of changing position of the inertia center. This equation should have a modified Liouville equation and the Boltzmann equation. General consideration of all effects gives us cumbrous system of equations. New another definition of temperature is obtained for molecules with vibration and rotation degree of freedom and for mixture. This is making another value for pressure of the mixture a rarefied gas and gas with internal degrees of freedom. Probably, exactly, these values are measured in all experiments. The simplest interaction of two homogeneous flows is studied which move in the same direction at different speeds.

The Law of Conservation of Momentum and the Contribution of No Potential Forces to the Equations for Continuum Mechanics and Kinetics

The most common systems are open non-stationary systems. From the previously formulated equations and some experiments, the connection between the gradients of physical quantities and the moment of momentum (force) is traced. The article investigates this trace. The use of the Hamiltonian formalism and the dependence of the force only on the distance between particles limit the study. In the collision integral, for example, for a rarefied gas, the Lennard-Jones potential is often used, which is not of the type considered. The foregoing forces us to turn to the study of the influence of forces of a more general form on the equations of mechanics. Hamilton’s formalism traces the behavior of closed systems. The general form of boundary conditions and forces changes the theory proposed in the works by N.N. Bogolyubov. The results of the reformulation are discussed. Even in classical theory, after taking moments, we arrive at Boltzmann’s theory at no symmetric stress tensor. The symmetric tensor is obtained after the assumption of a small effect of no symmetry and from the condition of the balance of forces. The requirement of simultaneous fulfillment of the laws of conservation of forces and moments of forces leads to the existence of two solutions. To take into account the moment, in addition to the conditions for the equilibrium of forces, the law of equilibrium of the moments of forces is required in the calculations. From it, the degree of no symmetry of the stress tensor is determined. The work illustrates the contribution of the distributed moment of force to the problems of continuum mechanics and the kinetic theory. Examples of the solution to the problem of fluid mechanics, the theory of elasticity and kinetic theory are given. A correspondence is established between the terms of the Liouville equation with more general and traditional forces. Previously, the influence of moments in boundary layer problems, jet problems, and the simplest problems of elasticity theory was considered. The work proves the important role of distributed moments in the formation of new structures.
