The CORBA standard adopted by OMG supports reliability using two orthogonal mechanisms: Replication (by means of FT-CORBA standard) and Transaction (with the aid of OTS standard). Replication represents a rollforward approach in which a failed request is re-directed into another replica that is alive. On the other hand, transaction represents a roll-back approach, in which any failure reverts t...

In this paper, we attempt to provide theoretical investigation to debt roll-over crisis in government bond market. By using the global game techniques, we analyse coordination problem in debt auction. The approach in this paper allows us to have insight on the relation between occurrence of sovereign debt roll-over crisis and the fundamentals of economy which is not clearly explained in precedi...

key account business analyst, Quaker Chemical Corp., Conshohocken, Pa., USA [email protected] Nucor Steel Tuscaloosa Inc. is the first U.S. mill to employ Steckel mill technology for producing high-quality wide coiled plates and discrete plates. Since 1985, the Steckel mill has consistently demonstrated product versatility, quality and cost advantage over traditional plate mills. The single...

There is a growing interest in fibers supporting optoelectrical properties for textile and wearable display applications. Solution-processed electroluminescent (EL) material systems can be continuously deposited onto fiber or yarn substrates in a roll-to-roll process, making it easy to scale manufacturing. It is important to have precise control over layer deposition to achieve uniform and reli...

We report on the manufacture of a first batch of approximately 2,000 Gas Electron Multipliers (GEMs) using 3M’s fully automated roll to roll flexible circuit production line. This process allows low-cost, reproducible fabrication of a high volume of GEMs of dimensions up to 30×30 cm. First tests indicate that the resulting GEMs have optimal properties as radiation detectors. Production techniqu...

in this paper, the effects of roll center height of mcpherson suspension mechanism on dynamic behaviour of a vehicle is studied first and then the optimum location of roll center of this suspension system is determined for a conceptual class a vehicle. adams/car software was used for analysis of vehicle dynamic behaviour in different positions of suspension roll center, then optimization proces...

this paper presents a reduce roll vibration of the full vehicle model with passive suspension systems using vibration absorber to change the dynamic system matrix stat’s eigenvalue. since using the controller system has been splurged and required to energy consuming, in this research the vehicle body roll vibration has been reduced and supplied vehicle stability using a vibration absorber for t...

Background Footwear with a curved sole profile remains popular and there is evidence of its effects on gait and posture [1,2]. Existing literature describes how different styles of roll over footwear affect gait, although the effects of the precise radii of the curve of the sole on the gait rocker function and other reported effects have not been investigated. The aim of this study was to relat...

Nowadays, the use of small vehicles is spreading among urban areas and one sort of these vehicles are three-wheeled vehicles (TWVs) which can be competitive with four-wheeled urban vehicles (FWVs) in aspects such as smallness, simple manufacturing, and low tire rolling resistance, fuel consumption and so on. The most critical instability associated with TWVs is the roll over. In this paper a ti...
