Influence of stator and rotor pole number combinations on the electromagnetic performance of stator slot-opening PM hybrid-excited machine
A new type of three-phase stator hybrid excited machine with permanent magnets (PMs) located at the slot openings of field winding slots is presented in this paper. It has the advantage of good flux regulation capability due to the field excitation. The machines with different stator/rotor pole combinations, i.e., 6-stator pole and 7-/8-/10-/11-/13-/14-rotor poles, have been comparatively investigated in terms of the open-circuit and on-load characteristics, as well as the influence of dc current and the unbalanced magnetic forces. The 2-D finite element analysis (FEA) has been employed for analysis and optimization of the machines together with experimental validation
Characteristics and Sensing Properties of the La1-xNdxCo0.3Fe0.7O3 System for CO Gas Sensors
A series of nanostructured La1-xNdxCo0.3Fe0.7O3 perovskite-type (x ranging from 0 to 1) were prepared using the co-precipitation method. CO gas sensing properties of La1-xNdxCo0.3Fe0.7O3 sensors were performed. La0.7Nd0.3Co0.3Fe0.7O3 sensor showed the highest response at 250 °C (S=52.8)
Influence of magnetic saturation and rotor eccentricity on back EMF of novel hybrid-excited stator slot opening permanent magnet machine
This paper introduces a novel hybrid-excited stator slot opening permanent magnet (PM) machine (HSSPMM). The operation principle of the machine is described and the effects of rotor eccentricity and magnetic saturation due to PMs on electromagnetic performance, with particular emphasis on back electromotive force (EMF), are analyzed by finite element method (FEM). It shows that different from the conventional PM machines, the open-circuit back EMF in this novel HSSPMM should be zero but may become non-zero if significant magnetic saturation exists, and furthermore, the rotor eccentricity has a detrimental effect on the waveforms, amplitudes, and symmetries of three-phase back EMFs, as confirmed by FEM and tests
Nonfactorizable contributions to decays
While the factorization assumption works well for many two-body nonleptonic
meson decay modes, the recent measurement of with
, and shows large deviation from this assumption. We
analyze the decays in the perturbative QCD approach based on
factorization theorem, in which both factorizable and nonfactorizable
contributions can be calculated in the same framework. Our predictions for the
Bauer-Stech-Wirbel parameters, and and and , are
consistent with the observed and branching ratios,
respectively. It is found that the large magnitude and the large
relative phase between and come from color-suppressed
nonfactorizable amplitudes. Our predictions for the , branching ratios can be confronted with
future experimental data.Comment: 25 pages with Latex, axodraw.sty, 6 figures and 5 tables, Version

Kaluza-Klein Cosmology With Modified Holographic Dark Energy
We investigate the compact Kaluza-Klein cosmology in which modified
holographic dark energy is interacting with dark matter. Using this scenario,
we evaluate equation of state parameter as well as equation of evolution of the
modified holographic dark energy. Further, it is shown that the generalized
second law of thermodynamics holds without any constraint.Comment: 13 pages, accepted for publication in Gen. Relativ. Gravi
The transition form factors for semi-leptonic weak decays of in QCD sum rules
Within the Standard Model, we investigate the semi-leptonic weak decays of
. The various form factors of transiting to a single charmed
meson () are studied in the framework of the QCD sum rules.
These form factors fully determine the rates of the weak semi-leptonic decays
of and provide valuable information about the non-perturbative QCD
effects. Our results indicate that the decay rate of the semi-leptonic weak
decay mode is at order of .Comment: 28 pages, 6 figures, revised version to be published in Eur.Phys.J.
Observation of Two New N* Peaks in J/psi -> and Decays
The system in decays of is limited to be
isospin 1/2 by isospin conservation. This provides a big advantage in studying
compared with and experiments which mix
isospin 1/2 and 3/2 for the system. Using 58 million decays
collected with the Beijing Electron Positron Collider, more than 100 thousand
events are obtained. Besides two well known
peaks at 1500 MeV and 1670 MeV, there are two new, clear peaks in
the invariant mass spectrum around 1360 MeV and 2030 MeV. They are the
first direct observation of the peak and a long-sought "missing"
peak above 2 GeV in the invariant mass spectrum. A simple
Breit-Wigner fit gives the mass and width for the peak as MeV and MeV, and for the new peak above 2 GeV
as MeV and MeV, respectively
Inquiry web-based learning to enhance information problem solving competences in science
Early research on using web information indicates that secondary students fail to
explore much web tools, use them naively and have serious difficulties to
understand and integrate web information. In response to these challenges, the
main goal of this research has been to design, implement and evaluate an
instructional approach that helps students learn from web information. We have
developed on-line learning materials which focus on specific curricular contents
and provide specific scaffolds to help students accomplish web-based tasks and
develop specific information problem-solving competencies. These scaffolds have
intended to give support to students involved in information-seeking activities as
they were asked questions, searched for information, organised and assessed their
findings, and created rich representations of their newly-constructed
understandings. We have designed a one year long study to investigate the depth
and accuracy of 127 secondary students, as regards their content understanding as
well as their development of information problem-solving competencies when
using on-line resources to solve instructional tasks. Our research demonstrates that
the experimental group performed computer-based activities statistically better
than the control group. Our findings also suggest that students were able to
develop accurate and in-depth understanding from web information if they could
appropriately use search and managerial strategies. This research lends evidence
to questions regarding the value of students engaging in on-line inquiry web-based
learning to enhance content understanding and to develop more efficient
information problem-solving competencies in secondary education
