A qualification test for the reliability of a newly-developed Diver Gas Recovery System (DGRS) was carried out in the Naval Medical Research Institute of the People's Liberation Army, China from March 29 to April ...A qualification test for the reliability of a newly-developed Diver Gas Recovery System (DGRS) was carried out in the Naval Medical Research Institute of the People's Liberation Army, China from March 29 to April 2, 1995. A sequential test plan of high discrimination ratio for the mean time between failures (MTBF) was adopted. The test procedures simulated those of a 300 msw dive. A hyperbaric breathing machine was used for the simulation of diver's respiratory functions. Parameters, such as diving depth, respiratory minute volume (RMV), CO2 production, gas flow rate, partial pressure of carbon dioxide, and ambient temperature and himidity were all displayed and recorded with a microcomputer system. The results indicated that no failure occurred during the 91.5 h operation. According to the acceptance and rejection criteria specified in the statistical test plan, a no-failure score in the 88 h operation is acceptable. Therefore, the DGRS has been demonstrated to meet the requirements of MTBF specified in the contract.展开更多

The linearized procedure for differentiable nonlinear programming problems can be naturally generalized to the quasi differential case. As in classical case so called constraint qualifications have to be imposed on the constraint functions to guarantee that for a given local minimizer of the original problem the nullvector is an optimal solution of the corresponding 'quasilinearized' problem. In this paper, constraint qualifications for inequality constrained quasi differentiable programming problems of type min {f(x)|g(x)≤0} are considered, where f and g are qusidifferentiable functions in the sense of Demyanov. Various constraint qualifications for this problem are presented and a new one is proposed. The relations among these conditions are investigated. Moreover, a Wolf dual problem for this problem is introduced, and the corresponding dual theorems are given.展开更多

In order to safeguard environmental public interests, many local prosecutorial organizations have practiced environmental public interests litigation. Since Chinese law has not made explicit stipulation on the function of the People's Procuratorate instituting environmental public interest litigation, the plaintiff's subject qualification for environmental public interest litigation instituted by the People's Procuratorate is still in question. In order to propel the People's Procuratorate to completely and fully exercise their power of supervision and prosecution, there shall be corresponding legislation that provides powerful guarantee for the People's Procuratorate instituting environmental public interest litigation.展开更多

Since Harbin Welding Training Institute(WTI Harbin) was founded based on Sino-German cooperation in 1984, it has trained all kinds of welding personnel 20000 and it made important contribution to the up-to-date system introduction of international welding training to China. The common questions in Germany foreign aid programs are: when German experts were on site, the project was on the operation; when he/they left, only memory was left. The outstanding achievements of Harbin Welding Training Institute tell us: when German experts were away, the cooperation program is not only run normally, but also gets persistent development, it is the successful model among the cooperation projects between China and Germany.展开更多

First,theoretical inference was used to get the acceleration coefficients of super Gauss vibration stress and temperature stress. Then, by applying these coefficients, an accelerated reliability qualification testing curve was obtained from the standard tests. Finally,the actual experiment on a digital marine control device was carried out under the proposed testing method.The experiment result shows that the proposed method can reduce the total experiment time and improve the efficiency of the reliability qualification test.展开更多

Most established norms, standards and recommended practices are written in prescribed formats, setting out methods, procedures and acceptance criteria for product design, manufacture and testing. However, established norms, standards or recommended practices may not adequately cover new technologies or applications. The technical qualification system is established in this paper, which can identify the potential failure modes and some activities in order to control the uncertainties and increase confidence of using new technology. A risk-based technical qualification system is used to assess non-traditional operations. It includes following seven main steps: system breakdown, technology assessment and classification, technical novelty, failure model and risk analysis, risk-based qualification planning and participation level development. The core of technical qualification system is to understand the ways and causes of system failure, and to carry out corresponding activities to provide evidence that the system will not fail. Through the technical identification process, the detailed equipment/operation specifications and identification requirements have been formulated. Different levels of participation are assigned for each eligibility activity, depending on the hazard and risk. It is proved that the application of the technical qualification principle in the systematic evaluation and control of the risks of new technologies or new applications is successful. In HPHT wells in particular, operators can move from a reactive approach to a proactive approach.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND Detecting gastric precancerous lesions(GPLs)is critical for the early diagnosis and treatment of gastric cancer.Endoscopy combined with tissue examination is an important method for detecting GPLs.However,negative biopsy results often increase patients’risks,economic burdens,and lead to additional healthcare costs.Improving the detection rate of GPLs and reducing the rate of negative biopsies is currently a key focus in endoscopic quality control.AIM To explore the relationships between the endoscopist biopsy rate(EBR),qualifications of endoscopists and endoscopic assistants,and detection rate of GPLs.METHODS EBR,endoscopists,and endoscopic assistants were divided into four groups:Low,moderate,high,and very high levels.Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the relationships between EBR and the qualifications of endoscopists with respect to the detection rate of positive lesions.Pearson and Spearman correlation analyses were used to evaluate the correlation between EBR,endoscopist or endoscopic assistant qualifications,and the detection rate of positive lesions.RESULTS Compared with those in the low EBR group,the odds ratio(OR)values for detecting positive lesions in the moderate,high,and very high EBR groups were 1.12[95%confidence interval(CI):1.06-1.19,P<0.001],1.22(95%CI:1.14-1.31,P<0.001),and 1.38(95%CI:1.29-1.47,P<0.001),respectively.EBR was positively correlated with the detection rate of gastric precancerous conditions(atrophic gastritis/intestinal metaplasia)(ρ=0.465,P=0.004).In contrast,the qualifications of the endoscopists were positively correlated with GPLs detection(ρ=0.448,P=0.005).Compared to endoscopists with low qualification levels,those with moderate,high,and very high qualification levels endoscopists demonstrated increased detection rates of GPLs by 13%(OR=1.13,95%CI:0.98-1.31),20%(OR=1.20,95%CI:1.03-1.39),and 32%(OR=1.32,95%CI:1.15-1.52),respectively.Further analysis revealed that the qualifications of endoscopists were positively correlated with the detection rates of GPLs in the cardia(ρ=0.350,P=0.034),angularis(ρ=0.396,P=0.015)and gastric body(ρ=0.453,P=0.005)but not in the antrum(ρ=0.292,P=0.079).Moreover,the experience of endoscopic assistants was positively correlated with the detection rate of precancerous lesions by endoscopists with low or moderate qualifications(ρ=0.427,P=0.015).CONCLUSION Endoscopists and endoscopic assistants with high/very high qualifications,but not EBR,can improve the detection rate of GPLs.These results provide reliable evidence for the development of gastroscopic quality control indicators.

文摘Chinese Welding Training and Qualification Committee (CANB) was awarded the authorisation of IIW in 2000, and has issued nearly 2000 IIW diplomas by the end of 2004. Since Harbin Welding Training Institute(WTI Harbin) was founded based on Sino-German cooperation in 1984, it has trained all kinds of welding personnel 20000 and it made important contribution to the up-to-date system introduction of international welding training to China. The common questions in Germany foreign aid programs are: when German experts were on site, the project was on the operation; when he/they left, only memory was left. The outstanding achievements of Harbin Welding Training Institute tell us: when German experts were away, the cooperation program is not only run normally, but also gets persistent development, it is the successful model among the cooperation projects between China and Germany.
文摘Based on the theoretical inference and experiment verification,a method was proposed to carry out the accelerated reliability qualification testing. First,theoretical inference was used to get the acceleration coefficients of super Gauss vibration stress and temperature stress. Then, by applying these coefficients, an accelerated reliability qualification testing curve was obtained from the standard tests. Finally,the actual experiment on a digital marine control device was carried out under the proposed testing method.The experiment result shows that the proposed method can reduce the total experiment time and improve the efficiency of the reliability qualification test.
文摘Some remarks are made on the use of the Abadie constraint qualification, the Guignard constraint qualifications and the Guignard regularity condition in obtaining weak and strong Kuhn-Tucker type optimality conditions in differentiable vector optimization problems.
文摘Combining with the characters of the practicing qualification personnel in construction market,evaluation method based on the self-organizing neural network is brought out to analyze the credit classification of the practicing qualification personnel. And the impact factors on the credit classification of the practicing qualification personnel,such as the number of neurons,the training steps,the dimension of neurons and the field of winning neurons are studied. Then a self-organizing competitive neural network is built. At last,a case study is conducted by taking practicing qualification personnel as an example. The research result reveals that the method can efficiently evaluate the credit of the practicing qualification personnel;thus,it could provide scientific advice to the construction enterprise to prevent relevant discreditable behaviors of some practicing qualification personnel.
文摘With the increasing demand for new technologies in HPHT (high pressure high temperature) wells, more and more attention has been paid to the system of technical qualifications. Most established norms, standards and recommended practices are written in prescribed formats, setting out methods, procedures and acceptance criteria for product design, manufacture and testing. However, established norms, standards or recommended practices may not adequately cover new technologies or applications. The technical qualification system is established in this paper, which can identify the potential failure modes and some activities in order to control the uncertainties and increase confidence of using new technology. A risk-based technical qualification system is used to assess non-traditional operations. It includes following seven main steps: system breakdown, technology assessment and classification, technical novelty, failure model and risk analysis, risk-based qualification planning and participation level development. The core of technical qualification system is to understand the ways and causes of system failure, and to carry out corresponding activities to provide evidence that the system will not fail. Through the technical identification process, the detailed equipment/operation specifications and identification requirements have been formulated. Different levels of participation are assigned for each eligibility activity, depending on the hazard and risk. It is proved that the application of the technical qualification principle in the systematic evaluation and control of the risks of new technologies or new applications is successful. In HPHT wells in particular, operators can move from a reactive approach to a proactive approach.
文摘In this 21st century a lot of women are experiencing marital challenges due to the various and important roles they perform in the home and in the society,which may require some psychological remedies.The research was on marital stress and married working women:the role of coping strategies,self-concept and educational qualification.Three hundred and seventy-seven(377)participants whose ages were between 25 to 55 years(mean 40.63 and SD 7.59)participated in the study.Three research instruments were used for data collection while three-way Analysis of Variance was used for data analysis.Result disclosed that emotion-focused strategies yielded less manifestation of marital stress(1,369)=4.44,sig.=.036;in the same manner,those with higher educational qualification presented less manifestation of marital stress(1,369)=6.33,sig.=.012.It was equally specified that coping strategies together with self-concept had a joint impact on marital stress(1,369)=5.88,sig.=.016;a joint influence was also observed between self-concept and educational qualification on marital stress(1,369)=4.18,sig.=.042.Hence,married working women should strive for higher education and also use emotion-focused coping strategies in dealing with marital stress.
