Methodological foundations of systems methodologies

In social systems science generally, and in management science particularly, recent developments in the variety of types of specific problem-solving methodologies (under the rubric of hard and soft systems approaches) have given an impetus to a line of inquiry, as well as debate on the nature of those methodologies. On the one hand, there has been the view that what we are witnessing is a form of Kuhnian crisis. On the other hand, a complementarist view of developments has been argued and a contingency approach proposed. But one thing has been common among the competing views: a belief that the prospects for further advances in the design and application of those methodologies, and in resolving the current controversies, lie in serious attempts to reconsider and clarify the underlying metatheoretical assumptions and concerns. This paper is an attempt to contribute to such an endeavor. A brief exposition of three methodological foundations (namely, empiricism, hermeneutics, and critique) is made, not only with the purpose of highlighting the nature as well as the limits of their epistemological and ethical claims, but also as a basis for illuminating both the nature of contemporary work on systems inquiry, design, and problem solving and the ongoing debate on what constitutes appropriate criteria for choice of specific methodologies.     

ICP-AES法测定录音带磁粉中七种痕量元素

用顺序ICP光谱仪测定录音带磁粉中Ca、Mg、Cr、Co、Mn、Zn和Ti等痕量元素。样品用H_2SO_4/H_3PO_4/HNO_3混合酸分解。利用仪器的扫描程序,确定被测元素的分析线及背景校正点波长,并求干扰元素校正系数。估计了七个元素的检出限。测得平均回收率在90～104%之间。     

The contents of the pygidial gland of the primitive antNothomyrmecia macrops (Hymenoptera:Formicidae)

Summary The principal constituent of the pygidial gland ofNothomyrmecia macrops is 3,7-dimethyloct-6-en-2-one, a substance not previously identified in insects. Also identified were 2,6-dimethylhept-5-enal, 2-nonanone, indole, -dodecalactone, and the hydrocarbons pentadecane, heptadecane, heptadecene and heptadecadiene, all in low nanogram quantities.

滚动轴承疲劳故障的在线监视和诊断技术

本文研究振动诊断方法在滚动轴承疲劳故障在线监视和诊断中的应用。 文中指出:通过在轴承寿命试验机上所作的大量试验发现,当轴承疲劳后,在作为其二次效应的振动信号中,除存在已为国内外学者指出并广为使用的“通过频率(又称冲击振动发生间隔频率)”和“高频冲击脉冲”两种信息特征外,还存在另一种位于中高频段的鲜为人知的重要信息特征——某“高频峰群”。 本文对该高频峰群的形成机理、影响因素及检测方法进行了初步研究,并利用这种新的信息特征研制了“以带通滤波器或以精化信息特征DDS模型谱分析法为主体的两种轴承疲劳故障在线监视和诊断装置。     

球面二次包络弧面蜗杆传动的理论研究

在避免蜗杆“根切”和“变尖”的条件下,减小蜗杆的喉径,提高蜗轮付的啮合效率及蜗轮轮齿强度,改善其结构的不合理性,已成为当前对“多头小速比”包络弧面蜗杆传动啮合原理研究的重要课题。本文对一种新型包络弧面蜗杆传动——“球面二次包络弧面蜗杆传动”进行了系统的理论研究,所得的结论表明,采用该传动对解决上述问题可以获得十分令人满意的结果。
