The SMG is sealed in metal can package in drive and sense modes and works under the air pressure of 10 Pa. Its quality factor reaches greater than l0 000. Self-oscillating and closed-loop methods based on electrostatic force feedback are adopted in both measure and control circuits. Both single side driving and sensing methods are used to simplify the drive circuit. These dual channel decomposition and reconstruction closed loops are applied in sense modes. The testing results demonstrate that useful signals and guadrature signals do not interact with each other because of the decoupling of their phases. Under the condition of a scale factor of 9. 6 mV/（（°） .s）, in a full measurement range of±300 （°）/s, the zero bias stability reaches 28 （°）/h with a nonlinear coefficient of 400 × 10^-6 and a simulated bandwidth of more than 100 Hz. The overall performance is improved by two orders of magnitude in comparison to that at atmospheric pressure.展开更多

Examples include bi-objective optimization problems, where the economic objective is maximized and environmental impact is minimized simultaneously. Moreover, the random behavior in the process,property, market fluctuation, errors in model prediction and so on would affect the performance of a process. Therefore, it is essential to develop a MOO methodology under uncertainty. In this article, the authors propose a generic and systematic optimization methodology for chemical process design under uncertainty. It aims at identifying the optimal design from a number of candidates. The utility of this methodology is demonstrated by a case study based on the design of a condensate treatment unit in an ammonia plant.展开更多
