紧凑型Tesla变压器的参数测量

对设计加工研制的Tesla变压器,根据Smith建议的测量方法,解决了对紧凑Teala变压器耦合系数进行比较准确地测量的问题,实测耦合系数高达0.9,并对耦合系数稍低于理论设计值的原因进行了探讨,同时分析给出了物理原因.此外,根据Teala变压器电路在初次级初、次级短路和低电压充电情形下的实测电压波形,估算出Tesla变压器电路各参数数值.这些数值与理论计算值吻合,并能满足实际高压充电的要求.     

Note: Normal prediction under linear-quadratic loss

The prediction of the value of a normal random variable is considered in the presence of combined linear and quadratic loss. It is shown that the optimal prediction is an additive adjustment to the predictive mean, the adjustment being the product of the predictive standard deviation and an appropriate adjustment factor. An extensive table of adjustment factor values is presented, and it is noted that for given loss parameters the adjustment is positive unless the predictive variance is sufficiently large. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Floor layouts using a multifacility location model

A procedure for obtaining a facilities scatter diagram within a rectangular boundary is developed using a multifacility location model. This method gives favorable computational results and has the advantage over other scatter diagram methods of being able to accommodate fixed facility locations. Examples illustrate how this method can be used by a designer/analyst either as a one-step algorithm or iteratively to build a layout.     

Efficient distributions of arms‐control inspection effort

A rule that constrains decision‐makers is enforced by an inspector who is supplied with a fixed level of inspection resources—inspection personnel, equipment, or time. How should the inspector distribute its inspection resources over several independent inspectees? What minimum level of resources is required to deter all violations? Optimal enforcement problems occur in many contexts; the motivating application for this study is the role of the International Atomic Energy Agency in support of the Treaty on the Non‐Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons. Using game‐theoretic models, the resource level adequate for deterrence is characterized in a two‐inspectee problem with inspections that are imperfect in the sense that violations can be missed. Detection functions, or probabilities of detecting a violation, are assumed to be increasing in inspection resources, permitting optimal allocations over inspectees to be described both in general and in special cases. When detection functions are convex, inspection effort should be concentrated on one inspectee chosen at random, but when they are concave it should be spread deterministicly over the inspectees. Our analysis provides guidance for the design of arms‐control verification operations, and implies that a priori constraints on the distribution of inspection effort can result in significant inefficiencies. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
