Systemic Intervention in a University Department: Reflections on Arrested Action Research

This paper reflects on my experience as an insider researcher attempting to use critical systems ideas and practices to promote quality improvement in a university engineering department. Reflection is a key part of learning. This paper is intended to contribute to critically, self-reflective learning for the community of systems practitioners. These reflections on my questions about participation, ethics, politics of process, and the choices and actions resulting from them may help others to formulate their own. The complexity of systems practice places substantial demands on the researcher, particularly in the case of insider, practitioner research. Nevertheless, the exploration of critical systems approaches to critique boundaries and structure ‘problems’ in the core aspects of higher education in locally meaningful ways should continue. While demanding, it still can work to promote learning about authentic quality.

歧义容忍度在二语习得中的研究

英语学习者在学习过程中经常不可避免的接触到各种语言层面的歧义现象,比如:语法层面、词汇层面、句法层面等。本文从心理和语言的角度介绍了歧义容忍度的概念。接着分析了歧义容忍度和二语学习的关系。在此基础上,介绍了歧义容忍度的测量方法。最后,文章概括性的讨论了歧义容忍度对二语习得的启示。     

CFG桩施工引起桩周土体开裂的原因探讨

由于郑东新区特殊的工程地质条件，长螺旋CFG（Cement Flyash Gravel）桩施工常常引起桩周土体开裂和周围建筑物开裂等施工事故。本文通过郑州某工地现场试验分析，否定了空桩效应引起桩周土体开裂的猜想，并分析了郑东新区由于CFG桩施工引起桩周土体开裂的原因。     

PEAK COVARIANCE STABILITY OF A RANDOM RICCATI EQUATION ARISING FROM KALMAN FILTERING WITH OBSERVATION LOSSES

We consider the stability of a random Riccati equation with a Markovian binary jump coefficient. More specifically, we are concerned with the boundedness of the solution of a random Riccati difference equation arising from Kalman filtering with measurement losses. A sufficient condition for the peak covariance stability is obtained which has a simpler form and is shown to be less conservative in some cases than a very recent result in existing literature. Furthermore, we show that a known sufficient condition is also necessary when the observability index equals one.     

CONSTRUCTIVE KISSING NUMBERS IN HIGH-DIMENSIONAL SPACES

In the present paper, we focus on constructive spherical codes. By employing algebraic geometry codes, we give an explicit construction of spherical code sequences. By making use of the idea involved in the proof of the Gilbert-Varshamov bound in coding theory, we construct a spherical code sequence in exponential time which meets the best-known asymptotic bound by Shamsiev and Wyner.

蒸汽机车水垢形成机理及解决方法

蒸汽机车锅炉水垢对机车的安全运行及工作效能有很大的影响,对蒸汽机车水垢的处理极其重要。蒸汽机车水垢是经过复杂的物理、化学变化而形成的。由于水垢的形成,造成锅炉的传热效率低,大量浪费燃料;降低锅炉出力危及锅炉安全运行;缩短使用寿命增大检修量,浪费工时、原料。为了缓解机车水垢的形成,可以采取尽量降低软化水硬度、确保洗修质量、合理安排排污时机和次数,提高排污效果等措施,并在实际运用中取得了一定的效果。
