For the purpose of facilitating the analysis, a simplified coupling model of the ossicular chain and the piezoelectric actuator is constructed. First, a finite element model of a human middle ear is constructed by reverse engineering technology, and the validity of this model is confirmed by comparing the simulated motion of the stapes footplate obtained by this model with experimental measurements. Then the displacement impedance of the incus long process is analyzed, and a single mass-spring-damper equivalent model of the ossicular chain attached with the clamp is derived. Finally, a simplified coupling model of the ossicular chain and the piezoelectric actuator is established and used to analyze the driving voltage property of the actuator. The results show that the required driving voltage decreases with the increase in the frequency, and the maximum required driving voltage is 20. 9 V in the voice frequencies. However, in the mid-high frequencies where most sensorineural hearing loss occurs, the maximum required driving voltage is 3.8 V, which meets the low-voltage and low-power requirements of the MEI.展开更多

The method applies the combination of Gabor and the Fisherfaces method to the reconstructed IR and visible images derived from wavelet frequency subbands. Our objective is to search for the subbands that are insensitive to the variation in expression and in illumination. The classification performance is improved by combining the multispectal information coming from the subbands that attain individually low equal error rate. Experimental results on Notre Dame face database show that the proposed wavelet-based algorithm outperforms previous multispectral images fusion method as well as monospectral method.展开更多

The intensifying effect of lead and natural uranium for moderating 14 MeV neutrons is confirmed. Adopting proper structure of the moderator, the intensifying factor M (times) may be larger than 3. Using lead and natural uranium in sub-critical assemblies (or call boosters),with 14 MeV neutrons as source, with the same dimension as that of above, the intensifying effect is also condrmed. With a proper structure of sub-critical assembly,the intensifying factor M may be close to or eved larger than (1 - k)-1 where k isthe effective multiplication factor.展开更多

After irradiation, the residual pressure inside was equal to 430 bar. Synthesized foils of black color and other multiple objects were found inside the HeHPC mainly at the entrance window for γ-rays made from beryllium bronze as a plug of beryllium bronze HPC, at the inner surfaces of the reaction chamber made of high purity copper and at the copper collector. The element analysis, using SEM （Scanning electron microscopy） and MPRA （Microprobe roentgen analysis）, allowed us to establish that the foils consist predominantly of carbon and the smaller quantities of other elements from carbon to iron. An explanation for the observed elements is suggested on the basis of helium fusion reactions under the action of y-rays with the reactions taking place in giant stars （thermally activated）. The possible mechanism after 3α reaction is nα reactions and under barrier reactions. A second experiment with initial pressure of 3.05 kbar （with pressure drop by about 65 bar - after almost the same procedure of y-rays irradiation and with fully beryl bronze environment） suggests another possible nuclear reactions - He（Be, p）C, He（C, γ）O, and so on. The developed approach agrees well with a series of studies carried out by the authors where dense hydrogen and deuterium gases are acted on by γ-rays in the presence or absence of metals in the reaction chambers.展开更多

The geometric phase-shift gate operation is performed in two lower flux states, and the excited state [2〉 would not participate in the procedure. The SQUIDs undergo no transitions during the gate operation. Thus, the docoherence due to energy spontaneous emission based on the levels of SQUIDs are suppressed. The gate is insensitive to the cavity decay throughout the operation since the cavity mode is displaced along a circle in the phase space, acquiring a phase conditional upon the two lower flux states of the SQUID qubits, and the cavity mode is still in the original vacuum state. Based on the SQUID qubits interacting with the cavity mode, our proposed approach may open promising prospects for quantum iogic in SQUID-system.展开更多

It was composed of adjustable screw, stirrer, metering device housing and central metering sheave and so on. The sowing rate can be set by turning the screw to change the working length of the central metering sheave relative to the metering device housing. The stirrer inside of the sheave housing is used to prevent seeds overhead. And metering of different sizes of seed is adjusted by changing the position of internal components of the slot wheel mechanism. Innovative design on the structure of the central metering sheave was finished. According to the structure parameters and physical characteristic parameters, different seed sowing rate of per hectares was calculated. And then the working length scale of the central metering groove wheel was made. And there is a one-to-one correspondence between scale values and sowing quantity per hectare of different kinds of seed.展开更多
