The clinical problem of bacterial identification has been approached by applying pattern-recognition techniques to multi-wavelength surface-scattering and reflectance data derived from real-time scans of isolated colonies. Preliminary results, obtained from blood-agar plates inoculated with a mixture of staphylococci, streptococci and escherichieae, indicate that these organisms can be differentiated with better than 90% certainty, provided the colonies are physically separated and their growth conditions closely controlled. Data collection and classification characteristics of the experimental system are briefly described; it is felt that the technique, possibly expanded to include boundary characteristics of the colonies, may offer a viable means of identifying clinically important bacteria.

Finite element simulation is an effective method to study the thermal characteristics of high-speed motorized spindle, how to improve the simulation accuracy has become the key point of this research field. This paper presents a FEA method using ANSYS to precisely predict the thermal characteristics of high-speed spindle. Firstly, the heating and cooling characteristics of high-speed spindle are analyzed, main heating source, convective heat transfer coefficient, and thermal contact resistance are calculated. Secondly, FEA model of the machine center is built, the temperature field and thermal deformation of the spindle system are simulated. Thirdly, an experimental system to test thermal characteristics is designed, simulation results are compared with the experimental results. The result shows that the simulation errors are controlled in a relative low range, the FE modelling method can precisely predict the thermal characteristics of the motorized spindle.

Abstract This paper presents a network based implementation of real-time dynamic simulation methods. An interactive animated graphics environment is presented that permits the engineer to view high quality animated graphics rendering of dynamic performance, to interact with the simulation, and to study the effects of design variations, while the simulation is being carried out. An industry standard network computing system is employed to interface the parallel processor that carries out the dynamic simulation and a high speed graphics processor that creates and displays animated graphics. Multi-windowing and graphics processing methods that are employed to provide visualization and operator control of the simulation are presented. A vehicle dynamics application is used to illustrate the methods developed and to analyze communication bandwidth requirements for implementation with a compute server that is remote from the graphics workstation. It is shown that, while massive data sets are generated on the parallel processor during realtime dynamic simulation and extensive graphics data are generated on the workstation during rendering and display, data communication requirements between the compute server and the workstation are well within the capability of existing networks.

Two pyrometric tools for measuring soot temperature response in fuel-rich flames under unsteady inlet airflow conditions are developed. High-speed pyrometry using a high-speed color camera is used in producing soot temperature distributions, with its results compared with those of global soot temperature response measured using a multi-wavelength pyrometer. For the former, the pixel RGB values pertaining to respective bandwidths of red, green and blue filters are used to calculate temperature and for the latter, the emission from whole flame at 660 nm, 730 nm and 800 nm is used to measure temperature. The combustor, running on Jet-A fuel, achieves unsteady inlet airflow using a siren running at frequencies of 150 and 250 Hz and with modulation levels (RMS) 20–50% of mean velocity. Spatiotemporal response of flame temperature measured by the high speed camera is presented by phase-averaged with average subtracted images and by fast Fourier transform at the modulation frequencies of inlet velocity. Simultaneous measurement of combustor inlet air velocity and flame soot temperature using the multi-wavelength pyrometer is used in calculating the flame transfer function of flame temperature response to unsteady inlet airflow. The results of global temperature and temperature fluctuation from the 3-color pyrometer show qualitative agreement with the local temperature response measured by the high speed camera. Over the range of operating conditions employed, the overall flame temperature fluctuation increases linearly with respect to the inlet velocity fluctuation. The two-dimensional map of flame temperature under unsteady combustion determined using a high-speed digital color camera shows that the local temperature fluctuation during unsteady combustion occurs over relatively small region of flame and its level is greater (∼10–20%) than that of overall temperature fluctuation (∼1%).

This paper reviews receivers that feature low-loss multimode-output arrayed waveguide gratings (MM-AWGs) for wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) as well as hybrid integration techniques with high-speed throughput of up to 100 Gb/s and beyond. A design of optical coupling between higher-order multimode beams and a photodiode for a flat-top spectral shape is described in detail. The WDM photoreceivers were fabricated with different approaches. A 10-Gb/s photoreceiver was developed for a 1.25-Gb/s baud rate and assembled for eight-channel WDM by mechanical alignment. A receiver with 40-Gb/s throughput was built by using visual alignment for a 10-Gb/s baud rate and four-channel WDM. A 100-Gb/s receiver assembled by active alignment with a four-channel by 25-Gb/s baud rate is the basis for beyond-100 Gb/s and future multi-wavelength integrated devices toward data-centric communications and computing.
