  • This paper deals with the problem of the global stabilization for a class of tension leg platform (TLP) nonlinear control systems. Problem and objective: Based on the relaxed method, the chaotic system can be stabilized by regulating appropriately the parameters of dither. Scope and method: If the frequency of dither is high enough, the trajectory of the closed-loop dithered chaotic system and that of its corresponding model-the closed-loop fuzzy relaxed system can be made as close as desired. Results and conclusion: The behavior of the closed-loop dithered chaotic system can be rigorously predicted by establishing that of the closed-loop fuzzy relaxed system.

  • We introduce an arbitrary waveform generation method and its H/W implementation case based on Rademacher and Walsh function. According to the orthogonal and periodic features of Rademacher and Walsh function, simple calculations can generate arbitrary waves with affordable logics. We implemented an FPGA-based AWS using above two functions, and verified. HDL simulation shows the proposed idea can draw desired analog test waveforms very fast, and its H/W size is promising to Built-Out Self-Test(BOST) logics for AI ICs.

  • This experiment was carried out to define the affinity of alfalfa varieties to nodule bacteria and the effects of nodule bacteria on the growth of alfalfa varieties. The results obtained are summarized as follows; 1. The ability of nodule formation on the roots of alfalfa was significantly different among the strains of nodule bacteria, Rhizobium meliloti SU 47 formed nodules on the roots of two alfalfa varieties, Luna and Von arnims altd bost. Nodules were not formed at the roots of all varieties by inoculation of Rhizobium meliloti M1 but a lot of nodules were formed at the roots of all varieties by inoculation of Rhizobium meliloti M14. 2. When the Rhizobium meliloti M14 was inoculated in the media, the largest numbers of nodules were formed on the roots of alfalfa cultivar Franks hangmeiler and the least numbers of nodules were formed on the roots of cultivar Elga. 3. The plant height and the dry matter weight of all alfalfa cultivars were significantly increased by inoculation of Rhizobium meliloti M14, and also those were increased by applying nitrogen, but when the alfalfa cultivars were grown on the media inoculated Rhizobium M1, the plant height and the dry matter weight of alfalfas were not increased and they were same as those grown on check media. 4. The significant correlation were not detected between the number of nodules formed on the, roots of alfalfa cultivars and the plant height or the dry matter weight of alfalfa cultivars.

  • The goals of this study were to examine how children's recognition of various emotions, emotion expression, and social interactions among their peers differed according to their attachment styles. A total of 65 three to five years old children completed both attachment story-stem doll plays and a standard emotion recognition task. Trained observers documented children's valence of emotion expression and social interactions among their peers in the classroom. Consistent with attachment theory, children who were categorized as secure in the doll play were more likely to express positive emotions than children who were categorized as avoidant in the doll play. Children who were categorized as avoidant in the doll play were more likely to express neutral emotions among their peers than children who were categorized as secure and anxious in the doll play. The findings of this study contribute to the general attachment literature by documenting how attachment security plays a crucial role in having positive emotions in ordinary situations. It does so by also demonstrating how different attachment styles are associated with children's qualitatively different patterns of emotion processing, especially in terms of their expression of emotions.

  • In this paper, a three phase PWM AC to DC boost converter that operates with unity power factor and sinusodial input currents si presented. The current control of the converter is based on the space vector PWM strategy with fixed switching frequency and the imput current tracks the reference current within one sampling time interval. Space vector PWM strategy for current control was materialized as a digital control method by using DSP. By using this control strategy low ripples in the output voltage, low harmonics in the input current and fast dynamic responses are achieved with a small capacitance in the dc link.

  • Background: To investigate differentiated thyroid cancer risk factors in natives of French Polynesia is of interest because of the very high incidence of this cancer in the archipelago. Materials and Methods: To assess the role of various potential risk factors of thyroid cancer in the natives of French Polynesia we performed a case-control study. The study included almost all the French Polynesians diagnosed with differentiated thyroid carcinoma between 1981 and 2003 (n=229) and 373 French Polynesian control individuals from the general population without cancer. Results: Thyroid radiation dose received from nuclear fallout before the age of 15, a personal history of neck or/and head medical irradiation, obesity, tallness, large number of children, an artificial menopause, a familial history of thyroid cancer, a low dietary iodine intake, and having a spring as the main source of drinking water were found to be significant risk factors. No roles of smoking habits, alcohol consumption, iodine containing drugs, and exposure to pesticides were evidenced. Conclusions: Except for smoking, differentiated thyroid carcinoma risk factors in natives of French Polynesia are similar to those in other populations. Our finding on the role of having a spring as a drinking water origin is coherent with some other studies and could be due to geological factors.

  • Background: Numerous studies have suggested that selenium deficiency may be associated with an increased risk for several types of cancer, but few have focused on thyroid cancer. Materials and Methods: We examined the association between post-diagnostic fingernail selenium levels and differentiated thyroid cancer risk in a French Polynesian matched case-control study. Conditional logistic regression models were used to estimate odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals. Results: The median selenium concentration among controls was $0.76{\mu}g/g$. Significantly, we found no association between fingernail selenium levels and thyroid cancer risk after conditioning on year of birth and sex and additionally adjusting for date of birth (highest versus lowest quartile: odds-ratio=1.12, 95% confidence interval: 0.66-1.90; p-trend=0.30). After additional adjustment for other covariates, this association remained non-significant (p-trend=0.60). When restricting the analysis to thyroid cancer of 10 mm or more, selenium in nails was non-significantly positively linked to thyroid cancer risk (p-trend=0.09). Although no significant interaction was evidenced between iodine in nails and selenium in nails effect (p=0.70), a non-significant (p-trend =0.10) positive association between selenium and thyroid cancer risk was seen in patients with less than 3 ppm of iodine in nails. The highest fingernail selenium concentration in French Polynesia was in the Marquises Islands ($M=0.87{\mu}g/g$) and in the Tuamotu-Gambier Archipelago ($M=0.86{\mu}g/g$). Conclusions: Our results do not support, among individuals with sufficient levels of selenium, that greater long-term exposure to selenium may reduce thyroid cancer risk. Because these findings are based on post-diagnostic measures, studies with prediagnostic selenium are needed for corroboration.
