Abstract We establish relationships between the classical moments problems which are problems of a construction of a measure supported on a real line, on a half-line or on an interval from prescribed set of moments with the Boundary control approach to a dynamic inverse problem for a dynamical system with discrete time associated with Jacobi matrices. We show that the solution of corresponding truncated moment problems is equivalent to solving some generalized spectral problems.

In 2020, everyday life changed dramatically for employees worldwide as a result of the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, where an estimated 558 million employees started working from home. The pandemic, therefore, marks a fundamental shift of individuals’ work-nonwork boundaries, which can impact work-life conflict. In particular, the interplay between individuals’ enacted boundaries (degree to which they separate/segment or blend/integrate work-nonwork), preferred boundaries (degree of preferred segmentation or integration of work-nonwork), and perceived control over work-nonwork boundaries, may relate to work-life conflict. This study, the first to the best of our knowledge, examines whether different types and levels of work-nonwork boundary (in)congruence matter for work-life conflict, and whether perceived boundary control moderates these relationships. Boundary (in)congruence represents the degree of (mis)fit between enacted and preferred segmentation or integration. Several types of (in)congruence are distinguished: “segmentation congruence” (enacting and preferring segmentation); “integration congruence” (enacting and preferring integration); “intrusion” (enacting integration but preferring segmentation) and “distance” (enacting segmentation but preferring integration). Data from 1,229 managers working in public and private organizations in Sweden was analyzed using polynomial regression analysis with response surface modeling and moderation analysis in SPSS Process. Findings showed that “integration congruence” was related with higher work-life conflict than “segmentation congruence.” Moreover, a U-shaped relationship between incongruence and work-life conflict was found: the more incongruence, the more work-life conflict. Specifically, “intrusion” was related to higher work-life conflict than “distance.” Finally, boundary control mitigated the effect of incongruence (especially “intrusion”) on work-life conflict. From our findings, we may conclude that work-life conflict is impacted differently depending on the type and level of boundary (in)congruence. Particularly enacted and/or preferred integration may be problematic when it comes to work-life conflict, rather than just (in)congruence per se. Moreover, boundary control can be viewed as a key factor in combating work-life conflict, especially among individuals who enact integration, but prefer segmentation. Taken together, our study contributes new and substantial knowledge by showing the importance for research and HRM-policies that take into account different types and levels of boundary (in)congruence, as these are associated with different levels of work-life conflict, which, in turn, are moderated by boundary control.

Abstract In view of the large size of the sealing surface of the space large diameter rectangular cabin door, the large number of locking mechanisms and long service life, it is difficult to adjust the multi degree of freedom attitude in the assembly process, the complex assembly and adjustment of the mechanism, the synchronization accuracy is not easy to ensure, the consistency of the multi-point seal compression rate is high, and it is not easy to control. Based on the rotation law of the spatial linkage mechanism, the precise dimension chain control of the hatch is carried out, and the attitude of the multi degree of freedom linkage is adjusted to realize the synchronous compression of multiple compression units of the compression mechanism; Based on the minimum and maximum operating force as the boundary, through the sealing stress simulation, the “boundary control” coupling assembly and adjustment technology is proposed to optimize the sealing structure and realize rapid and efficient assembly. The results show that the vacuum leakage rate is still less than 2.5×10−3 PaL/s after 2000 door opening and closing tests and sealing compression ratio are better than 15%. The long-life test verifies the feasibility and effectiveness of this method, and forms a set of high reliable and long-life sealing assembly and adjustment method of space hatch, which provides technical guidance and reference for the subsequent assembly of similar space hatch mechanisms.
