Space experiment on behaviors of treefrog.

Japanese treefrogs (Hyla japonica) are planned to be sent to the space station MIR. Experimental system was developed to observe their behaviors under microgravity.     

The double-pulsar binary J0737–3039

A recent multibeam pulsar survey of the outer Galactic plane at Parkes has discovered the first-known double-pulsar binary, a very compact double neutron star system in which both stars are observable as radio pulsars. In this review, we briefly describe the discovery and the studies which have been enabled by the unique properties of the system. These range from the most precise confirmation yet of the theory of general relativity, with the possibility of even more new tests and the measurement of second-order post-Newtonian effects, to studies of the magnetospheres and emission properties of the two pulsars. The discovery also results in a significant increase in the expected rate of occurrence of the mergers of double neutron star systems, and hence the rate of detection of such events by the new ground-based gravitational wave detectors.     

Power anomaly effects and costs in low-voltage mobile power systems

Electric power anomalies or disturbances can disrupt the normal operation of equipment, accelerate aging, or even cause outright failures thus resulting in increased costs of maintenance and reduced system reliability. Past research on the effects caused by power anomalies has been mostly focused on industrial, commercial, or residential systems, or on power distribution equipment. A literature survey reveals that there is no comprehensive review related to low-voltage (LV) power systems and utilization equipment applicable to military combat vehicles, such as aircraft and ships. This paper summarizes the results of a new literature survey that focused on the causes, effects, and mitigation methods for power anomalies typical of LV mobile power systems. Electric power anomaly cost data collected from the literature are also presented, from which the costs of anomalies to the national defense are estimated using some simple rationales.     

Synthesis of biomass and utilization of plants wastes in a physical model of biological life-support system

The paper considers problems of biosynthesis of higher plants' biomass and "biological incineration" of plant wastes in a working physical model of biological LSS. The plant wastes are "biologically incinerated" in a special heterotrophic block involving Californian worms, mushrooms and straw. The block processes plant wastes (straw, haulms) to produce soil-like substrate (SLS) on which plants (wheat, radish) are grown. Gas exchange in such a system consists of respiratory gas exchange of SLS and photosynthesis and respiration of plants. Specifics of gas exchange dynamics of high plants--SLS complex has been considered. Relationship between such a gas exchange and PAR irradiance and age of plants has been established. Nitrogen and iron were found to the first to limit plants' growth on SLS when process conditions are deranged. The SLS microflora has been found to have different kinds of ammonifying and denitrifying bacteria which is indicative of intensive transformation of nitrogen-containing compounds. The number of physiological groups of microorganisms in SLS was, on the whole, steady. As a result, organic substances--products of exchange of plants and microorganisms were not accumulated in the medium, but mineralized and assimilated by the biocenosis. Experiments showed that the developed model of a man-made ecosystem realized complete utilization of plant wastes and involved them into the intrasystem turnover.

GDBMS是作者设计并实现的一个实验性的工程图形数据库管理系统。它基于扩充关系数据模型,成功地完成了对工程图形数据的描述。 本文从图形的数据库表示出发,对几何实体的建模方法进行了分析,介绍了GDBMS中的图形数据模型及其实现方法。该数据模型吸取图元枚举法(PI方法),结构实体几何表示法(CSG法)和边界表示法(BR方法)的优点,在进行交互式图形编辑以及图形显示时,采用CSG结构,在数据库的存贮和处理时,采用扩充的BR方法。     

大客车局部优化造型对其使用性能的影响

随着车速的提高,汽车在行驶中受到的空气阻力便成为不可忽视的问题,因此与减阻节能相关的汽车优化造型也就显得越来越重要了。由于运动物体所受到的空气阻力系数的大小主要取决于它的头部的形状,因而我们对厢式大客车驾驶室前风窗区的几种不同造型在低速风洞中进行了测力的实验研究。实验结果表明,驾驶室前围不同形式的过渡是影响厢式客车空气阻力的重要因素。其中在适当的风窗倾角下,经过良好的圆化处理后,可使厢式大客车的空气阻力减小27%左右。这不仅节省了燃料的消耗,还可以提高汽车的最大行驶速度,改善其加速和爬坡能力。
