Abstract In this work, a new structure for the implementation of inline pseudoelliptic waveguide filters using non-resonating modes, based on asymmetric iris coupled transverse rectangular ridge resonators has been proposed. The basic structure is comprised of a ridge that is always centered and transverse to the waveguide center axis and has the ability to create a transmission zero (TZ) above or below the passband without involving any rotation of the ridge, thus enabling quicker design of the resulting filters by allowing the use of more efficient analysis tools like FEST3D, in addition to the more general purpose methods like HFSS. A centered ridge enables the ease of manufacturing through machining. The proposed structure makes use of rectangular waveguide's dominant TE10 mode as a non-resonating mode to create an alternate energy path from source to load, thus realizing a TZ, while the asymmetric irises excite the ridge resonator, enabling the overall structure to act as a singlet capable of producing both a pole and a TZ. A third-order filter with one TZ and a fifth-order filter with two TZs have been designed and manufactured. Measured results show good consistency with the simulated data, validating the viability of the proposed structure.

Abstract The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of various data structures on the genetic evaluation for the binary phenotype of reproductive success. The data were simulated based on an existing pedigree and an underlying fertility phenotype with a heritability of 0.10. A data set of complete observations was generated for all cows. This data set was then modified mimicking the culling of cows when they first failed to reproduce, cows having a missing observation at either their second or fifth opportunity to reproduce as if they had been selected as donors for embryo transfer, and censoring records following the sixth opportunity to reproduce as in a cull-for-age strategy. The data were analyzed using a third order polynomial random regression model. The EBV of interest for each animal was the sum of the age-specific EBV over the first 10 observations (reproductive success at ages 2-11). Thus, the EBV might be interpreted as the genetic expectation of number of calves produced when a female is given ten opportunities to calve. Culling open cows resulted in the EBV for 3 year-old cows being reduced from 8.27 ± 0.03 when open cows were retained to 7.60 ± 0.02 when they were culled. The magnitude of this effect decreased as cows grew older when they first failed to reproduce and were subsequently culled. Cows that did not fail over the 11 years of simulated data had an EBV of 9.43 ± 0.01 and 9.35 ± 0.01 based on analyses of the complete data and the data in which cows that failed to reproduce were culled, respectively. Cows that had a missing observation for their second record had a significantly reduced EBV, but the corresponding effect at the fifth record was negligible. The current study illustrates that culling and management decisions, and particularly those that impact the beginning of the trajectory of sustained reproductive success, can influence both the magnitude and accuracy of resulting EBV.

This chapter presents a web-enabled, intelligent agent-based information system model to support on-demand and mass customized markets. The authors present a distributed, real-time, Java-based, mobile information system that interfaces with firms’ existing IT infrastructures, follows a build-to-order production strategy, and integrates order-entry with supply chain, manufacturing, and product delivery systems. The model provides end-to-end visibility across the entire operation and supply chain, allows for a collaborative and synchronized production system, and supports an event-based manufacturing environment. The system introduces four general purpose intelligent agents to support the entire on-demand and mass customization processes. The adoption of this approach by a semiconductor manufacturing firm resulted in reductions in product lead time (by half), buffer inventory (from five to two weeks), and manual transactions (by 80%). Application of this approach to a leading automotive manufacturer, using simulated data, resulted in a 51% total inventory reduction while increasing plant utilization by 30%. Adoption of this architecture by a pharmaceutical firm resulted in improving accuracy of trial completion estimates from 74% to 82% for clinical trials resulting in reduced trial cost overruns. These results verify that the successful adoption of this system can reduce inventory and logistics costs, improve delivery performance, increase manufacturing facilities utilization, and provide a higher overall profitability.

This work introduces a simplified multi-aperture iris notch suitable for designing waveguide filters having an extremely improved compactness/rejection ratio, regarding available solutions, and adequate pass-band performances. The proposed iris architecture, analyzed for the first time, exhibits a unique transmission zero in the waveguide mono-mode bandwidth which can be easily located below or above the pass-band. The frequency of this transmission zero is evaluated in terms of the iris dimensions thus providing useful guidelines for designing filters with suitable responses. As a consequence of this simplified topology, any designed filter can be easily manufactured by cutting along its E-field symmetry plane. This strategy greatly improves the filter’s insertion loss regarding classical implementations based on more complicated arrangements with piled thin metallic sheets. Two exemplary filters have been designed and tested to be used in a high-performance X-band SATCOM terminal with an 80% size reduction with respect to the existing systems. Both filters covering the Rx (7.25–75 GHz) and Tx (7.9–8.4 GHz) sub-bands show a reflection of −25 dB with insertion losses below 1 dB in the pass-band, whereas they present a very sharp out-of-band rejection of at least 90 dB, that is, a 600 dB/GHz slope at X band.

This paper studies a repetitive controller design scheme for a bridgeless single-ended primary inductor converter (SEPIC) power factor correction (PFC) converter to mitigate input current distortions. A small signal modeling of the converter is performed by a fifth-order model. Since the fifth-order model is complex to be applied in designing a current controller, the model is approximated to a third-order model. Using the third-order model, the repetitive controller is designed to reduce the input current distortion. Then, the stability of the repetitive controller is verified with an error transfer function. The proposed controller performance is validated by simulation, and the experiment results show that the input current total harmonic distortion (THD) is improved by applying the proposed controller for an 800 W bridgeless SEPIC PFC converter prototype.
