High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! OLT (Norwegian for Offentlig Landmobil Telefoni, Public Land Mobile Telephony), was the first land mobile telephone network in Norway. It was established December 1, 1966, and continued until it was obsoleted by NMT in 1990. In 1981, there were 30,000 mobile subscribers, which at the time made this network the largest in the world. The network operated in the 160 MHz VHF band, using frequency modulation (FM) on 160-162 MHz for the mobile unit, and 168-170 MHz for the base station. Most mobile sets were semi-duplex, but some of the more expensive units were full duplex. Each subscriber was assigned a five digit phone number. Данное издание не является...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! OMEGA was the first truly global radio navigation system for aircraft, operated by the United States in cooperation with six partner nations. OMEGA was originally developed by the United States Navy for military aviation users. It was approved for development in 1968 with only eight transmitters and the ability to achieve a four mile (6 km) accuracy when fixing a position. Each Omega station transmitted a very low frequency signal which consisted of a pattern of four tones unique to the station that was repeated every ten seconds. Because of this and radionavigation principles, an accurate fix of the receiver's position could be calculated. OMEGA employed hyperbolic radionavigation techniques...

In mobile communication channels information symbols are transmitted through a communication channel that is prone to fading and multipath propagation. At the receiver, the effect of multipath propagation is reduced by a process called channel equalization. Channel equalization relies on an accurate estimate of the channel state information (CSI). This estimate is obtained using a channel estimation algorithm. Mobile WiMAX is a recently released technology that makes use of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based physical layer to transmit information over a wireless communication channel. In this book, frequency and time domain channel estimation methods typically used in classical OFDM systems, using block and comb...

In this monograph, the origin of shear locking was tried to be explained clearly. Factors which might have significant effects on shear locking were analyzed. These factors mainly include interpolation order, integration scheme and selection of variational principle. Later, a general solution, called field consistence approach, was put forward, which was applied in explaining shear locking and in developing highly efficient beam elements. Then, the field consistence approach was used, in an indirect way, in deriving a 3-node triangular and a 4-node quadrilateral plate bending element. Finally, some of the developed shear-flexible elements were extended, with the aid of a co-rotational formulation, to accommodate finite rotation, to check...

Continuous caster mould is the last and important stage in the steelmaking process where inclusions can be either generated or removed. With increasing casting speed using conventional immersion nozzles critical problems, such as unstable bulk mould flow, have been noticed. Mould flux entrapment due to vortex and shearing action from the oscillating surface waves have become of particular concern. It is, therefore, necessary to have a calm inlet flow at the entrance of the mould. Recently, it has been acknowledged that a swirl blade placed at the upstream end of the nozzle effectively resolves these problems. Therefore, to increase our knowledge on swirling flow fundamental mathematical models of a billet mould equipped with a swirl...

This book reports findings and results from studies of change processes in the secondary woodworking industry. Case studies and action research were performed in small manufacturing companies, mainly with less than 100 employees. Topics elaborated are how ergonomic performance can be measured and the influence of standards and ISO 9000 on system performance and working conditions. Moreover, a framework for how change is enacted in SMEs and its effects on ergonomic considerations is suggested. A methodology for initiating change efforts in complex and ambiguous problem situations is presented. Finally the different roles in an organisational change effort are elaborated. The importance of action and work activities as a base for change is...

This thesis is devoted to modelling the effects of surface roughness, on performance, in lubricated contact interfaces found inside and between various machine elements. Many researchers have of course already addressed this, both experimentally and numerically, however, due to the multidisciplinary nature and the complexity of the associated theoretical models, the progress in the development of efficient yet user friendly software has not reached as far as in other fields. Especially the requirement on mesh density to resolve the surface roughness is difficult to meet and it is through this connection that this thesis contributes to the field of research. Namely, by development and implementation of rigorous theoretical models that...

This work introduces an on-line particle-filtering-based framework for fault diagnosis and failure prognosis in nonlinear, non-Gaussian systems. This framework considers hybrid state-space models of the system under analysis (with unknown time-varying parameters) and particle-filtering (PF) algorithms to estimate the current probability density function (pdf) of the state, enabling on-line computation of the conditional fault probability (fault diagnosis module) and the pdf of the remaining useful life (RUL) in the case of a declared fault condition (failure prognosis module). The proposed method allows to use the state pdf estimate of the diagnosis module as initial condition for the prognosis module, improving the accuracy of RUL...

Online NMF (Non-negative matrix factorization) is a recently developed method for real time data analysis in an online context. Non-negative matrix factorization in the past has been used for static data analysis and pattern recognition. In the past it has been used for facial recognition and spectral data analysis, however due to the time and memory expensive nature of NMF algorithms2, PCA, SVD, and Pearson correlation based methods have been used instead. However, the fact that data can be recreated as a linear combination of the set of resolved "basis" data is advantageous in some lines of study. One such use is for collaborative filtering in recommendation systems were it is advantageous to know not only how much two individuals are...

This book addresses an ontology-based architecture to design a user-centric (personalized) ontology- based cost model for route finding analysis using a Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) technique in a Geographic Information System (GIS). A cost model is an essential element of the route finding analysis in GIS. User-centric model provides an outcome based on the user’s preference. There is some dissatisfaction regarding existing route finding architectures and their cost models which are based on a one-dimensional and fixed criterion such as distance.With this in mind, the objectives of this book are to develop an ontology-based architecture and a user-centric cost model for route finding analysis using MCDM-Analytic Network...

The process of open coil annealing (OCA) is used to prepare steel sheet for further processing. The OCA process anneals and de-carbonizes the steel in preparation for shaping and finishing by original equipment manufacturers. The steel sheet that undergoes this process is used primarily in the appliance and automotive industries. Because of its use, the steel sheet must be highly formable and have good surface chemical properties. In OCA, a coil of steel is wound with two intertwined 0.035 inch wires between each sheet. The wires are used to space the wraps of the coil, thus creating an “open coil”. This spacing allows air flow along all of the surfaces of the steel coil. Annealing is done to soften the steel by relaxing the strain...
