D0 Cryo System Control System Autodialer
The DO cryogenic system is controlled by a TI565-PLC based control system. This allows the system to be unmanned when in steady state operation. System experts will need to be contacted when system parameters exceed normal operating points and reach alarm setpoints. The labwide FIRUS system provides one alarm monitor and communication link. An autodialer provides a second and more flexible alarm monitor and communication link. The autodialer monitors contact points in the control system and after receiving indication of an alarm accesses a list of experts which it calls until it receives an acknowledgement. There are several manufacturers and distributors of autodialer systems. This EN explains the search process the DO cryo group used to fmd an autodialer system that fit the cryo system's needs and includes information and specs for the unit we chose
Measurement of the effect of chromaticity and intensity on colour representation parameters of a CRT display
The aim of the measurement detailed in this paper was to measure the just-noticable stimuli of the participating subjects. The stimuli were defined by chromaticity and intensity as the main parameters of the mathematical model. The results show correlance between intensity and the just-noticable stimuli, as described in the Weber-Frechner Law but a contradiction was shown after the analysis in the function of chromaticity. This contradiction can be explained by the difference between the sensitivity of the three cones of the eye
Perspective with Six Vanishing Points - an Alternative Method
The purpose of this paper is to describe perspective with six vanishing points. The line opened by axonometry and continued by one, two, three vanishing points and spherical perspectives, one became complete with the sixth vanishing point. Linear perspectives are often used, well known systems. Introducing new vanishing points doubles the represented part of space. The question of representing the half-space, hence the definition of the first five vanishing points can be found in literature. However, there was no useful solution for the representation of the whole space for a long time. This paper introduces a new definition of the sixth vanishing point that resulted a well applicable system. A short historical introduction looks at some of the interactions between mathematics and arts of western culture. Afterwards we formulate the new alternative perspective and give some methods of construction for notable lines and planes. Finally we write about possible applications
Chromatic Discrimination Thresholds as a Function of Color Differences and Cone Excitations
In this paper, Just Noticeable Differences (JNDs) of color-normal subjects measured towards the Protan, Deutan, and Tritan confusion points are presented as a function of the chromaticity of the reference points. Measurements were executed with the Cambridge Colour Test Trivector test in equidistant reference points towards eight directions equally spaced and centered on the neutral reference point in the CIE 1976 UCS diagram.Results were evaluated as the function of the distance between the reference points and the neutral point. The reference points were the chromaticities of the backgrounds of the pseudoisochromatic plates in the test, and the neutral point was defined as equal energy white. The evaluation was performed considering âEu'v' differences and L/(L + M) and S/(L + M) ratios of the cone-excitations.Chromatic discrimination thresholds exceeded the normative upper limit of color normal subjects in âEu'v' units at extreme reference points. Shifting the reference points from the neutral point towards the confusion points indicated an increase of Just Noticeable Differences measured towards the confusion points following second-order polynomials. Based on our results a model estimating the JNDs expressed in âEu'v' units towards the confusion points was recommended.Even though CIE 1976 UCS diagram is not a perceptually uniform color space, the Just Noticeable Differences measured with the CCT correlate with the corresponding L' and S' cone excitations. This confirms the basic applicability of the CIE 1976 UCS diagram for characterizing Just Noticeable Differences. For complete perceptual analysis, the use of cone-excitation-based metrics is still essential and recommended
The Effect of the Field of Adaptation on Chromatic Discrimination Ellipses
In this paper results of chromatic discrimination measurements obtained in two lighting scenarios are compared. Chromatic discrimination thresholds were measured in relation with systematically manipulated chromaticities seen under different visual angles. In both cases the Ellipse module of the Cambridge Colour Test (CCT) was obtained binocularly by normal colour-observers. Discrimination ellipses fitted to the measured thresholds were compared in terms of the adapting chromaticity and the visual angle of the adapting stimulus. Our findings show that changes in the reference chromaticity of the CCT have stronger effect on the elongation of the chromatic discrimination ellipses compared to the effect of the adapting chromaticity obtained in a light booth.Further comparison of discrimination thresholds estimated towards the confusion directions and the corresponding radii of the Ellipse test results suggests that the reliability of the Ellipse test results depends on the relation between the measurement directions and the confusion directions
The Oleaginous Red Yeast <em>Rhodotorula/Rhodosporidium</em>: A Factory for Industrial Bioproducts
Rhodotorula genus, amended in 2015, is polyphyletic and contains Rhodotorula species that grow as single-cell yeast (monomorphic) and reproduce asexually via budding/fission (anamorphic); it also contains Rhodosporidium species that reproduce sexually (teleomorphic) and alternate between a yeast phase and dikaryotic filamentous phase (dimorphic). Several species of these âred yeastâ produce industrial bioproducts, namely biofuel feedstocks, carotenoids, enzymes, and biosurfactants. This chapter highlights the biotechnology areas that Rhodotorula/Rhodosporidium contributes to and the future market value of those industries. The primary yeast species to be discussed include Rhodosporidium toruloides, Rhodotorula glutinis, Rhodosporidium diobovatum, Rhodosporidium kratochvilovae, Rhodotorula graminis, Rhodotorula babjevae, and Rhodotorula taiwanensis
