A kind of Kantorovich-type operator of Butzer-Hahn Bn^* (f; x) on the bounded and integrable function space was introduced, and the properties of Bn^* (f; x) were studied. Positive theorem, converse theorem, and the order of weighted approximation of Bn^* (f; x) were obtained.     

Preservation of the NBUCA Class of Life Distributions

Introduction As is well known, lifetime distributions can beclassified by stochastic ordering. Recently, Ahmad etal.[1]defined a new aging class, namely, NBUCA(new better than used in increasing convex average),based upon the increasing convex average order. Inthe theory of economics, this order is known as weakthird-order stochastic dominance[2]. Under the as-sumption that the elements are independent andidentically distributed (i.i.d.), the preservationproperties of this class under convo…     

Influence of Carbonation on Mechanical Properties of Concrete

As one of the most important factors that determine the lifespan of a reinforced concrete structure, carbonation not only corrodes the reinforcing steel, but also changes the mechanical properties of concrete. For better understanding the performance of carbonated concrete structure, it is necessary to study the mechanical properties of carbonated concrete. The strees-strain relationship of carbonated concrete was analyzed on the basis of experiments. The specimens were made by means of accelerated carbonation and then compressed on the testing machine. Some very important characteristics of carbonated concrete were revealed by the testing results. In addition,a useful constitutive model of carbonated concrete, which proved to be suitable for analyzing carbonated concrete members, was established in this research.

Determination of Critical Slip Surface of Soil Slope

A new complex method is presented considering not only the improvement upon the ＂bad ＂design point, but also the diversity of the newly generated complex, which is obtained by replacing the ＂bad ＂design point with the better design point located at the line between the ＂bad ＂design point and the ceotroid of the remaining design points of the old complex. The new complex method is applied to searching for the critical slip surface of two non-homogeneous soil slopes. The comparison of the results obtained by the new complex method with that by the basic complex method shows that the new complex method is much more likely to find the true critical surface for the randomly generated initial complex.     

Optimization of PERT Network and Compression of Time

In the traditional methods of program evaluation and review technique （PERT） network optimization and compression of time limit for project, the uncertainty of free time difference and total time difference were not considered as well as its time risk. The authors of this paper use the theory of dependent-chance programming to establish a new model about compression of time for project and multi-objective network optimization, which can overcome the shortages of traditional methods and realize the optimization of PERT network directly. By calculating an example with genetic algorithms, the following conclusions are drawn： （ 1 ） compression of time is restricted by cost ratio and completion probability of project; （2） activities with maximal standard difference of duration and minimal cost will be compressed in order of precedence; （3） there is no optimal solutions but noninferior solutions between chance and cost, and the most optimal node time depends on decision-maker＇s preference.     

Logical Properties of Lattice Filter of Lattice Implication Algebra

Introduction The concept of lattice was first introduced andelaborated by Dedekind, and the abstract structure oflattice was proposed by Birkhoff in 1935[1]. Sincethen, the lattice theory has gradually developed to be acomplete theoretical system[2], and extensively studiedby researchers[3-6]. In 1990s, Xu[7]proposed the con-cept of lattice implication algebras and investigatedsome of their properties. Then, Xu and Qin[8]intro-duced the notion of filters in lattice implication algebraand dis…

Experimental Investigation of the Influence of Fuel Viscosity on the Spray Characteristics of Diesel Nozzle

This paper presented an investigation of atomization characteristics including the velocity vector field and the mean droplet sizes for different percentages of DMM-diesel blended fuels using a phase doppler anemometry (PDA) analyzer system. Based on the fuel design concept, an oxygenated fuel named dimethoxy methane (DMM), which has lower viscosity, surface tension, and boiling point, was used to blend with diesel. The experiments were carried out under atmospheric conditions on a single-hole type diesel nozzle, liquid conditions comprise a temperature of 298 K under the needle valve opening pressure of 6 MPa. The results show that the sauter mean diameter (SMD) and spray cone angle of blended fuels decrease with the increase of DMM content; the axial mean velocity in the centerline increases with the increase of DMM. However, the spray behavior of blended fuel in which DMM exceeds 75% is virtually identical to that of neat DMM. The measurement also reveals the existence of an "S" shape in the radial mean velocity variations with radial distance.

Performance Comparison and Analysis of Heating and Ventilation of Two Kinds of Roof Solar Collectors

Two roof solar collectors (RSCs), conventional single pass RSC and new double pass RSC, were compared. The new roof solar collector, which is formed by integrating a double pass solar air collector with the roof of the building, can be operated more efficiently for space heating in winter, and for natural ventilation in other seasons. To evaluate the performances of the two RSCs for both space heating and natural ventilation, a single traditional Chinese style house, on which the two RSCs will be mounted, was developed. The efficiency of solar energy conversion for the new RSC is higher than that of the single pass one by 10% on average, and the ventilation rate contributed by natural ventilation for the new RSC can be improved to a great extent for most cases, indicating that the new RSC is superior to the single pass one from the viewpoint of both space heating and natural ventilation. The new RSC is more potential for improving indoor thermal environment and energy saving of buildings.
