    Two novel low power pass transistor based XOR-XNOR circuits are proposed, UPPL (Unsymmetrical Push Pull Pass Transistor Logic) and CPPL (Complementary Push Pull Pass Transistor Logic). They both input single rail signals and output dual rail signals, which can get XOR and XNOR signals simultaneously. The output signals are full swing voltage. Hspice simulation under 0.18μm technology 1.8V voltage showed improvement on speed and power-delay product compared with some other circuits. Compared with the latest circuits, which was proposed by Mohamed Elgamel in 2003, the UPPL and CPPL circuits have 61.0% and 58.4% decreases on power delay product respectively without load. And with fanout three, they have 25.3% and 45.3% decreases respectively.

    A tungsten tip received discharge treatment under a high voltage over 10kV in a field-emission microscope (FEM). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observation showed that some nanometer-scale protrusions resulted from the discharge treatment. The post-treatment tungsten tip delivered a field emission current as high as 1.55mA. The FEM pattern of the tip demonstrated a four-fold symmetry and thus the field emission was attributed to a single protrusion. The dependence of the field emission current on the applied voltage approximately followed the Fowler-Nordheim (F-N) theory. The value of the emission area calculated by the F-N theory is in agreement with that obtained from the TEM observation in the order of magnitude.

    A new coding and rate control method for JPEG2000 is proposed to improve its coding efficiency. Through modifying the coding order, the most important passes are coded first in a whole tile. Then, a simple data-stream truncation method is able to both terminate the coding in advance and approximate the optimal rate distortion. At the end, a feasible parallel implementation is proposed and it is to speed up JPEG2000 significantly. The improved algorithm makes JPEG2000 much more beneficial to applications with the restricted computing resource on board. The research satisfies the elementary requirements of image compression of Space Solar Telescope.

    Multilevel fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA) and preconditioned generalized minimal residual (GMRES) method was employed to analyze electromagnetic scattering characteristics in resonance region of 3-D complex objects in this paper. For the problem of scattering in resonance region, such as 5 to 10 wavelengths, MLFMA needs much less core memory and computing complexity than moment method and fast multipole method. How to choose the optimal parameter L, the multipole number, is discussed. Preconditioned GMRES is used to solve the MLFMA matrix equation with a large number of unknowns, which proves to be more efficient than conventional conjugate gradient (CG) method. Finally, electromagnetic scattering in resonance region of 3-D complex bodies including the missile model and stealthy airplane model are analyzed.

    This paper is concerned with the design, construction, and control of a novel biomimetic robotic dolphin equipped with mechanical flippers based on an engineered propulsive model. The robotic dolphin is modelled as a three-segment organism composed of rigid anterior body, flexible rear body, and an oscillating fluke. The dorsoventral movement of the tail produces the thrust, and bending of the anterior body in the horizontal plane enables turning maneuvers. Swimming performance of the prototype is tested, and the experimental results confirm the effectiveness of the dolphinlike movement in propulsion and maneuvering.

    It is clearly clarified the conceptions of quadrature modulation, quadrature exciting, quadrature receiving, and quadrature demodulation in the MRI system. The purpose of quadrature modulation is to generate the SSB RF exciting pulse that avoids exciting it's mirror slice. Quadrature demodulation can distinguish positive and negative frequency so it can overcome position uncertainties on imaging data space. Quadrature exciting and quadrature receiving refer to make use of circular polarization RF coils. These quadrature operations are necessary for the optimization of MRI system and they bring some significant benefit.

    Experimental research on the phenomenon of reverse transition in the boundary layer under a heated plate is presented, and the mechanism of reverse transition is also explained. During the experiment, the production term, dissipation term as well as absorption term of turbulent energy is measured. Experimental results show that, through the formation of stably stratified structure, the production term of turbulent energy in the range between 400 - 1000 mm away from the leading edge of the plate has become negative, so the region is actually an absorption region of turbulent energy. In the same time, the dissipation term near the wall region is strengthened by smallscale eddy. Under the conjunct effect of the negative production term, the absorption term, as well as the absorption term caused by buoyancy, the turbulent energy in the inner layer of turbulent boundary layer is depleted rapidly, and the turbulent flow in the outer layer changes into passive flow because of the lack of energy source. Finally, the turbulence turns into laminar flow.

    The concept and application of blending height are introduced. Large-eddy simulations were conducted to study the blending height in convective boundary layers over heterogeneously heated surfaces. The influences of heterogeneous length, heterogeneous strength and wind speed on blending height were investigated. The results show that the blending heights are mainly determined by the heterogeneous length and wind speed, while less influenced by the heterogeneous strength. Blending height appears at the height where the spatial standard deviation of heat flux decreases to 5% of that on the surface and can be fitted as Zb = 1/Cwm * w'θ'sfc/Θ0 * Lahetero/Ub, with a=1.266, b=0.854, Cwm=3.205×10-3.

    An experimental setup is presented in which the ghost diffraction phenomenon can be observed for two un-entangled photons in the same mode. No quantum non-locality is involved in this case, because the photons are not spatially separated. Therefore the ghost diffraction phenomenon is not an experimental evidence for quantum non-locality.

    Using conventional observational data, autographic records and satellite images, the authors studied a black storm caused by a dry squall line associated with a southern cold front at the northern foothills of Tianshan Mountains in Xinjiang on April 18, 1998. The results show that winds, pressure, temperatures and humidity all have abrupt changes when the black storm passes through meteorological stations, changes associated with the black storm are much stronger than that with dust storms. The dust wall is almost isothermal, with horizontal thickness of about 4-9km. Strong surface winds were mainly caused by rapid intensification of the cold front and the cold advection. Meanwhile, the development of a upper level jet and strong downward transport of momentum by the sinking branch of the upper level jet's secondary circulation are also important for the formation of strong surface winds. The mixed layer is the crucial stratification factor affecting the formation of black storm because it can minimize the energy required to develop the deep dry convection and so is favorable for the formation of black storm in drought region. In this case primary reason that the black storm occurres at the northern foothills of Tianshan Mountain is the formation of deep mixed layer, which is induced by the surface heating for a long time. So the deep dry convection can be developed when the cold front passes and the black storm occurres there.

    Characteristics of non-linear mountain gravity waves and atmospheric ship waves generated by three-dimensional multi-layer flow over an isolated mountain were investigated using the numerical model, ARPS. Results show that the transverse and diverging modes of atmospheric ship waves generated by two layer flow over an isolated mountain are the same as that of mountain gravity waves in linear models. However, non-linear mountain gravity waves and atmospheric ship waves generated by three-dimensional three-layer flow over an isolated mountain show completely different characteristics from linear mountain gravity waves. In the nonlinear case, due to non-linear interactions there exist two ship waves involving in two diverging modes on the lee side, which propagate downstream. These ship wave modes have more complex wave characteristics compared with that in two layer and linear models.

    Superconducting MgB2 thin films were fabricated on Mg substrate by using the hybrid physical-chemical vapor deposition (HPCVD) technique. The film has a Tc(onset)=39.5K. The SEM images demonstrate that crystallite is compact. X-ray diffraction pattern indicates the film is polycrystalline with no preferring growing direction. The grain size is about 400nm-1.0μm. These results show that it is feasible to deposit MgB2 thin films directly on Mg by HPCVD technique. It is advantaged to fabricate MgB2 fibers directly on SiC carrier and MgB2 superconductive wires.

    The size effect of the raw B powder on the MgB2 phase formation is studied by the technique of in-situ high temperature resistivity (HT-ρT) measurement. The onset temperature, Tonset, and the completion temperature, TPF, of the phase formation are determined directly during the ongoing thermal process. These two temperatures, Tonset and TPF of the sample synthesized using nanometer B and Mg powders (NanoB-MgB2) are 440 and 490℃, respectively, the same as those of the sample using micrometer B and nanometer Mg powders (MicroB-MgB2). This indicates that the phase formation temperature of MgB2 do not depend on the B powder size. The upper limit of the sintering temperature, TN, above which the sample loses superconductivity, is below 750℃ for NanoB-MgB2, much lower than 980℃ for the MgB2 prepared using micron-sized B powder and millimeter sized Mg powder (DM-MgB2). In comparison with the sample directly sintered at 650℃<TN, an interesting, irreversible transformation in the crystal structure of the MgB2 phase is observed with the sample going through the stages of initial sintering at 750℃, then re-sintering at 650℃ in an Mg-rich environment after the processes of regrinding and pressing.
