Digital tuning systems are fast replacing the conventional mechanical systems in AM/FM and television receivers. The desirability of the digital approach is mainly due to the following features: Y Precise tuning of station frequencies Y Exact digital frequency display Y Keyboard entry of desired frequency Y Virtually unlimited station memory Y Up/down scanning through the band Y Station ‘‘searc...

Along with several other nuclear physics laboratories around the world, the NSCL has undertaken the challenge of stopping a radioactive ion beam in order to make low-energy beams for experiments that require nearly thermal beam energies (precision mass measurements, laser spectroscopy, etc.). As part of the LEBIT (Low Energy Beam and Ion Trapping) Project at the NSCL, a gas stopping station is ...

the paper is devoted to solution of some problems in nuclear power station generating unit intellectual control systems using genetic algorithms on the basis of control system model development, optimizations methods of their direct quality indices and improved integral quadratic estimates. some mathematical vector models were obtained for control system multicriterion quality indices with due ...

In this paper, we propose how to control the uplink transmit power of a mobile station (MS) during soft handoff in order to reduce the error probability of downlink transmit power control command bit without macro diversity gain at the base station controller (BSC). The uplink transmit power control is based on uplink transmit power control commands from all base stations (BS’s) belonging to th...

A Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modeling study has been conducted to evaluate the application of overfire air (OFA), Fuel Lean Gas Reburn (FLGR), and Selective Non-Catalytic Reduction (SNCR) to reduce NOx emissions from Owensboro Municipal Utilities’ Elmer Smith Station. Smith Station Unit 1 is a nominally rated 150 MWe single-wall cyclone fired boiler with three barrels. FLGR is a NOx con...
