Abstract:

This dissertation describes the process of converting an application from Visual Basic to a .NET programming language. This work was carried out on behalf of The Prevas Company based in Karlstad, Sweden. Prevas provides IT solutions and industrial systems for several world leading companies such as Ericsson, Nokia, Siemens and many others. The objective behind the conversion of this application was to facilitate a more compatible and flexible option suitable for the other products using the .NET environment. In addition, Prevas felt that the Visual Basic 6 environment had grown rather old and outdated. The task was therefore to convert the source code from Visual basic 6 to .NET language and to determine the most efficient method for the conversion. The outcome of this project was to achieve a fully converted application using the .NET framework with its original functionality intact.

Abstract:

Visual basic educational programme Informational Technologies has become such a popular subject that they are applied in all works of life. However, Informational Technologies are still rarely used in the lessons at school. There are such reasons of the mentioned issue: · Insufficient base of computers, · The old software and its disadvantages, · The lack of computerized educational programmes. The aim of the work was to prove that it is actual to create computerized educational programme. The review of the existes was done too. Before working on a programme one should investigate functional and non- functional users requests for a program. According to the mentioned requests an educational programme was created. With a help of it the educational material and information about Visual Basic 6.0 are presented. The examples of all controlling elements are presented and analyzed too. The tasks for individual work and knowledge testing are involved. The control users` group has evaluated the programme by completing a questionnaire. According to the given answers the programme is in the process of perfection.

Abstract:

Arbetet bygger på att de informationssystem som används idag men som blir allt äldre och därigenom inte klarar de krav som ställs på dem. Detta medför att informationssystemen måste migreras till modernare plattformar, då företagen dels inte klarar sig utan dess nuvarande funktionalitet och dels måste vidareutveckla systemen.

Detta arbete tar upp olika sätt som detta kan genomföras på och vilka problem som kan komma att uppstå när detta sker. För att kunna undersöka detta så genomfördes ett antal migrationer. Språken som migrationen kommer att ske mellan är Visual Basic 6 och Visual Basic .net. Migrationerna kommer att ske med hjälp av ett migrationsverktyg, samt ett ramverk som i arbetet skräddarsys för just arbetets typ av migrationer.

Det arbetet kommer fram till är att det sker problem vid användande av ett verktyg och även att det inte ger tillräckligt med respons på vad som gått snett under migrationerna.

Abstract:

For many students in basic writing classrooms the language of writing assignments, essay prompts and required reading is especially difficult. Therefore, some teachers are using approaches other than logical or linguistic methods to assist these students. This thesis details some of the methods teachers and researchers are using. Most significant is a case study that explores the use of visuals in a basic writing classroom. The results of the case study and a survey instrument suggest that there is a niche for alternative methods and the use of visuals in the basic writing classroom.

Abstract:

Visemes are groups of phonemes that are considered visually indistinguishable, but there are many doubts regarding their use in visual speech recognition. In this thesis, a visual speech recogniser is constructed to test the validity of visemes. Examining the phoneme output of the recogniser shows that it is not possible to construct a viseme grouping that exhibits the required phoneme confusion characteristics. This thesis proves that phonemes, not visemes, are the basic visual unit of speech.

Full text

Abstract:

UCTOLD, IAWPRC and UCTPHO are activated sludge system diurnal simulation software programs written and compiled in TurboPascal 3.1 by the Water Research Group at the University of Cape Town in the late 1980s and early 1990s. IAWPRC is identical to International Water Association (IWA) Activated sludge Model No 1 (ASM1, Henze et al., 1987) and UCTOLD is an earlier variation of ASM1 that makes no material difference to simulation results when each are run with their default parameters – the difference is explained by Dold and Marais (1985). Details on the use of UCTOLD and IAWPRC was published by Dold et al. (1991) and this guide remains essential reading for the responsible use of the recoded UCTOLD and UCTPHO presented in this thesis. In the early 1990s, when the kinetics of phosphorus accumulating organisms (PAO) were sufficiently well understood, biological excess P removal (BEPR) was added to UCTOLD to yield UCTPHO. This software has the same look and feel as UCTOLD/IAWPRC and so a guide for it was never published. Details of the BEPR research that was codified into it are given by Wentzel et al. (1991) and Clayton et al. (1991). Later, much of the Wentzel BEPR model was integrated into ASM1 to form ASM2 (Henze et al., 1995). So UCTPHO and ASM2 differ in the same way as UCTOLD and ASM1/IAWPRC differ, essentially only in the fate of the product of the hydrolysis of slowly biodegradable particulate organics (BPO) – in ASM1/2, this product enters the bulk liquid as readily biodegradable soluble organics (BSO) with the ordinary heterotrophic organisms (OHO) utilizing only BSO, whereas in UCTOLD/UCTPHO the BPO product is utilized directly by the OHO and so does not enter the bulk liquid (Dold and Marais, 1985). One aspect is very important to note about the models embedded in these codes – UCTOLD and ASM1 are only for biological N removal systems and UCTPHO and ASM2 are only for biological N and P removal systems. One cannot simulate a N and P removal system with UCTOLD (or ASM1) and one cannot simulate a N removal system only with UCTPHO (or ASM2). The kinetics of denitrification in UCTOLD/ASM1 and UCTPHO/ASM2 are not the same - the details of the differences are explained by Clayton et al. (1991). For two decades up to around 2010, UCTOLD and UCTPHO provided free activated sludge system simulation tools to consultants, municipalities and operators to predict the performance of the activated sludge systems of wastewater treatment plants. Therefore smaller consultancies had the software available for use without requiring expensive commercial software for the modelling of household/municipal wastewater. With the advancement of computer hardware and Windows operating systems over two decades, the UCTOLD and UCTPHO software (not the models coded within them) grew outdated and gradually lost functionality. Then when 64 bit processor personal computers (PC) became available, the old compiled TurboPascal 3.1 software could no longer be run – they can still run on 32 bit processor WinXP PCs. Re-coding the software was therefore required if the continued use of the software were to be ensured. This recoding into Excel/VBA was undertaken in this thesis. Some considerable effort also went into the improvement of the user interface. The new interface allows quick input and configuration of the biological reactors of the activated sludge system, and the recycle streams. Several challenges presented themselves during the recoding stage of the project, most notable of which were the data management structures and the calculation time minimisation. Also, significant time was also spent on simulations to determine the effects of the integration parameters on calculation time, and to determine how to minimise the calculation time. After struggling with these challenges for some months, the recoded programs started to present results similar to the original TurboPascal compiled code, about a year after commencement with the project. This Beta version has the same functionality that the original Turbo Pascal versions had including Adjustment of the Wastage Pattern and Graphical Display of Diurnal Results. The calculation of activated sludge ISS concentration was added as an option by including the influent OHO and PAO ISS to determine reactor TSS concentration for N and N&P removal systems using results from Ekama and Wentzel (2004). So, instead of having to enter an activated sludge VSS/TSS ratio, the option to calculate it from entered influent VSS and TSS data can now be selected to calculate the reactor TSS concentration.

Abstract:

The task of the diploma thesis named VBA and Maple Application on Process Engineering Problems is to show the possibilities of using these programming languages for various engineering tasks. Particularly the programming language Visual Basic for Application (VBA), which is a part of MS Office package, is very little used in practise. That´s why this thesis solves the complex task of a furnaces design process; the topic was reccomended by the supervisor prof. Ing. Josef Kohoutek, CSc. Specifically, the thesis deals with calculations of heat transfer and optimization of the height of extended surfaces of tubes in the convection section of process furnaces. The entire task is elaborated in VBA and runs in Excel. After entering the input information, the created program first calculates the size and heat output of the convection section, but it can also optimize the height of extended surfaces in different parts of the convection section and thus minimize investment costs.

Abstract:

The purpose of this thesis was to help the company Medius AB with optimization of selected parts in an existing system to minimize the execution time by implementing multithreading. The idea was to manipulate the code so that calculations could be executed at the same time. The main work in this thesis consisted of three optimizations. The first one was to reconstruct a big “for-loop” so it would execute every loop's work in an own thread. The second optimization also was a reconstruct of a “for-loop” so it could execute the work in different threads. The third and last optimization consisted of reconstructing a stored procedure on the database, so different parts of it each could be executed in an own thread to create data at the same time. To implement the optimizations Visual Basic .NET and its support for multithreading and connection-pools was used. The result of the optimizations meant that one of the modules could be executed more efficiently and it was 12 % faster. The other modules execution time was more efficient by 25 % faster. The meanings and requirements for this thesis are fulfilled by now letting the system make use of its resources in a better way.

Abstract:

nÃo hÃ
The high morbidity and mortality rates for Cervical Cancer (CC) in Brazil may be due to the low population coverage of Oncotic Colpocytology (OC), as well as insufficient and/or inadequate therapeutic and diagnostic conducts. This study aimed to evaluate the practices and knowledge of primary care nurses about CC and visual inspection. This was a cross-sectional descriptive correlational study in a higher education institution in Juazeiro do Norte-CE. The sample was not probabilistic obtained by convenience, totaling 144 nurses. A questionnaire with information about the nursesâ knowledge about the Visual Inspection with Acetic Acid was applied, the Schiller test, recognition and ability to technically describe structures that are observed in the daily practice of nursing gynecologic consultations and the professionalâs efficacy and safety in indicating the diagnosis depth when faced with a change suggesting cervical HPV infection, regardless the result of the CC. Exploratory data analysis took advantage of absolute and relative frequencies, means and standard deviations, and the analysis of categorical variables. It was found that most respondents were between 26 and 30 years (N = 78; 54.2%), with one year or less (N = 48; 33.3%) of professional experience, and who exercised their activities in the FHP (N = 100; 69.4%), especially in Juazeiro do Norte (N = 49; 34%). It was also found that 96.5% believed that there were still many unknown or new information on workup of CC and 97.2% recognized the need to receive updates, 68.1% said that participation in training does not interfere in other professional activities. It was noticed that the previous experience of nurses presented in the visualization of the clinical finding ranged from 14.6% to 48.6%. In the evaluation of the nursesâ practices and knowledge about the Schiller Test, a higher percentage of the nursesâ accuracy was only 9.7% with respect to the conservation of this solution. Concerning the description of the structures identified in the clinical images, the structure with the highest percentage of correctness (5.5%) among nurses was the identification of the cervical canal and the squamocolumnar junction. It was found that the baseline knowledge of the morphology of the cervix and the ability to recognize abnormal structures was insufficient for most of the nurses to perform safely the IV and the Schiller Test. Given this result it is important to conduct training with these professionals, a fact that is corroborated by their interest and motivation in relation to these strategies.
As elevadas taxas de morbimortalidade por CÃncer de Colo Uterino (CCU) no Brasil podem dever-se Ã baixa cobertura populacional da Colpocitologia OncÃtica (CO), alÃm de condutas terapÃuticas e diagnÃsticas insuficientes e/ou inadequadas. Objetivou-se avaliar as prÃticas e saberes dos enfermeiros da atenÃÃo bÃsica acerca da CO e inspeÃÃo visual. Estudo descritivo-correlacional transversal, realizado em uma InstituiÃÃo de Ensino Superior de Juazeiro do Norte-CE. A amostra foi nÃo probabilÃstica obtida por conveniÃncia, totalizando 144 enfermeiros. Foi aplicado um questionÃrio com informaÃÃes acerca de conhecimentos dos enfermeiros sobre a InspeÃÃo Visual com Ãcido AcÃtico, o teste de Schiller, reconhecimento e capacidade de descrever tecnicamente estruturas que sÃo observadas na prÃtica diÃria das consultas ginecolÃgicas de enfermagem e a eficÃcia e seguranÃa do profissional em indicar o aprofundamento diagnÃstico quando se depara com uma alteraÃÃo do colo uterino sugestiva de infecÃÃo pelo HPV, independentemente do resultado da CO. A anÃlise exploratÃria dos dados valeu-se de frequÃncias absolutas e relativas, mÃdias e desvios-padrÃo, e a anÃlise das variÃveis categÃricas. Verificou-se que a maioria dos entrevistados possuÃa idade entre 26 e 30 anos (N=78; 54,2%), com um ano ou menos (N=48; 33,3%) de atuaÃÃo profissional, e que exerciam suas atividades no PSF (N=100; 69,4%), sobretudo em Juazeiro do Norte (N=49; 34%). Foi ainda verificado que 96,5% acreditavam que ainda existiam muitas informaÃÃes desconhecidas ou novas sobre propedÃutica do CCU e 97,2% reconheciam a necessidade de receberem atualizaÃÃes, 68,1% afirmaram que a participaÃÃo em treinamentos nÃo interfere nas demais atividades profissionais. Percebeu-se que a experiÃncia anterior dos enfermeiros na visualizaÃÃo do achado clÃnico apresentado variou de 14,6% a 48,6%. Na avaliaÃÃo de prÃticas e saberes dos enfermeiros acerca do Teste de Schiller, o percentual de acerto maior dos enfermeiros foi de apenas 9,7% no que diz respeito Ã conservaÃÃo dessa soluÃÃo. Acerca da descriÃÃo das estruturas apontadas nas imagens clÃnicas, a estrutura que apresentou maior percentual de acerto (5,5%) entre os enfermeiros foi a identificaÃÃo do canal cervical e junÃÃo escamo-colunar. Verificou-se que a linha de base de conhecimentos sobre a morfologia da cÃrvice uterina e a capacidade de reconhecer as estruturas anormais era insuficiente para a maior parte dos enfermeiros realizar com seguranÃa a IV e o teste de Schiller. Diante desse resultado Ã importante a realizaÃÃo de treinamentos com estes profissionais, fato que Ã corroborado pelo interesse e motivaÃÃo dos mesmos em relaÃÃo a estas estratÃgias.

Abstract:

Examensarbetet har utförts på Weland Lagersystem AB i Gislaved som tillverkar och säljer lagersystem. Företaget är en del i Welandkoncernen och ägs därmed av Weland AB. Arbetet handlar om att effektivisera konstruktionsprocessen på Weland Lagersystem AB, för produkten grenställ1. Konstruktionsprocessen består idag av ett flertal moment. Ett av dessa moment, som idag utförs manuellt och är tidskrävande, är skapande av geometriska modeller. Effektivisering av denna process, för produkten grenställ, är gjord genom automatisering.Två automatiseringsförslag togs fram och evaluerades för att finna det, i detta fall, bästa förslaget med hjälp av gjorda metoder som funktionsanalyser, investeringskalkyler och uppnåbarhetsgraden för respektive förslag. Likaså gjordes en implementering av automatiseringen för att uppnå tidsbesparingar och därmed ekonomiska vinster hos företaget Weland Lagersystem AB.Genomförandet av automatiseringen har till största del bestått av programmering i VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), som är synkroniserat med CAD (Computer Aided Design) programmet SolidWorks. Därför beskrivs en del utmaningar som har dykt upp under programmeringens gång. I resultatet presenteras investeringskalkylens nyttoeffekt tillsammans med en uppskattad jämförelse på hur enkelt det är att skapa funktionerna (som framgår i funktionsanalysen), för respektive lösningsförslag. Likaså dras sedan en slutsats kring vilket förslag som är bäst lämpad för Weland Lagersystem AB. Till sist visualiseras bilder med förklarande text för att visa utförandet av den färdiga automatiseringen. Slutligen kommer en slutsats kring automatisering överlag och hur vi tror den utvecklas i framtiden att dras. Likaså kommer olika vidareutvecklingsförslag på automatiseringen vi åstadkommit presenteras. Det kan innebära att göra automatiseringsprogrammet mer komplett samt integreras med andra moment i konstruktionsprocessen.

Abstract:

The purpose of the present study was to investigate response allocation amongst two concurrently available computerized slot machines, one dispensing Losses Disguised as Wins (LDWs) while the other did not. Both payouts were equal in the beginning and became consistently worst for the LDW machine by lowering the payout each phase. LDWs are slot machine outcomes, participants bet on a slot machine and win back less than their wager. This may be a problem because participants may react to LDWs as a win, misleading the participant to think they are winning more than they actually are. In the present study the LDW outcome payout started at 80 percent payback and decrease by 20 percent each phase and non LDW, maintained at 400 percent payback over 12 percent of the trials. Twenty individuals were recruited by the researcher. Results indicated that a higher percentages of spins were allocated to the machine dispensing LDW. These results suggest that gamblers have a preference for LDW machines because of the reinforcement of the misleading factors that may indicated a win.

Abstract:

Multi-tier enterprise systems consist of more than two distributed tiers. The design of multi-tier systems is considerably more involved than two tier systems. Not all systems should be designed as multi-tier, but if the decision to build a multi-tier system is made, there are benefits to this type of system design. CSCources is a system that tracks computer science course information. The requirements of this system indicate that it should be a multi-tier system. This system has three tiers, client, business and data. Microsoft tools are used such as Visual Basic (VB) that was used to build the client tier that physically resides on the client machine. VB is also used to create the business tier. This tier consists of the business layer and the data layer. The business layer contains most of the business logic for the system. The data layer communicates with the data tier. Microsoft SQL Server (MS SQL) is used for the data store. The database containsseveral tables and stored procedures. The stored procedures are used to add, edit, update and delete records in the database. Microsoft Transaction Server (MTS) is used to control modifications to the database. The transaction and security features available in the MTS environment are used. The business tier and data tier may or may not reside on the same physical computer or server. Active Server Pages (ASP) was built that accesses the business tier to retrieve the needed information for display on a web page. The cost of designing a distributed system, building a distributed system, upgrades to the system and error handling are examined.Ball State UniversityMuncie, IN 47306

Abstract:

Denna rapport beskriver ett examensarbete inom Programmet för Användarinriktad Systemutveckling vid Linköpings universitet, Campus Norrköping. Resultatet är en databasapplikation som är utvecklad specifikt för C.N.S. Systems AB i Linköping.

I uppgiften ingår analys, utformning, realisering, implementering, dokumentation samt i viss mån även förvaltning och drift. Utvecklingsarbetet har skett i nära samarbete med företaget som har tillhandhållit arbetsplatser och datorutrustning.

Applikationen är ett dokumentregistreringssystem där information om företagets interna och externa dokument lagras. Tidigare har motsvarande uppgifter lagrats i Excel. Den färdiga databasapplikationen har främst gjort det lättare att registrera och söka ett dokument vilket också var ett av de uppsatta målen. Själva databasen är utvecklad i Access och gränssnittet i Visual Basic. Kopplingen mellan dessa är skapad med ActiveX Data Objects 2.0 (ADO).

Rapporten ger inledningsvis en närmare presentation av utgångsläge och förutsättningar. Därefter beskrivs teorin bakom det arbetssätt som använts. I resultatdelen presenteras applikationen översiktligt, valda delar lite mer ingående. Och slutligen, i diskussionsavsnittet, görs en subjektiv bedömning av resultatet och utvecklingsarbetet.

Abstract:

In this study, data on vibration measurements from Forsmark - Vattenfall AB's database has been studied, the goal has been to see how it can be reworked so that it becomes easier to interpret and more transparent for more people in maintenance.The idea has been to use all the data available to create graphs or graphs over a longer period to look for trends in systems that are similar to each other. Which is because there is redundancy in the systems and blocks 1 & 2 are sibling blocks with identical components, so it is possible to compare them.Furthermore, it is intended to implement the results from this work in balanced scorecards that are already used at Forsmark at present. This is done to obtain data on how the maintenance is going and how many machines need to be maintained compared to previous periods.The work has consisted of retrieving data files from Forsmark's database and via an Excel script that reworks all data so that graphs can be created of the various measurements performed regularly by the Maintenance Group NMM 1-3 (Mechanical Maintenance) at Forsmark.The results of the work have been verified through the special software that NMM 1–3 uses but in which other groups have no experience. In this special software all graphs and data are already available, something that is not as easy, however, is the ability to compare different machines at the same time, something that this thesis work tries to create.As others in maintenance do not have experience in the specialized software, Excel is used instead, as it is a program all groups have access to and good knowledge in. What emerges from the work is that the amount of data is very large but the possibility to get to the goal is good, the data files need some reworking to be easily used for graph creation and some things are unfortunately not included in the data files but must be downloaded from the special software NMM 1- 3 have.
I denna studie har data över vibrationsmätningar från Forsmark – Vattenfall AB:s databas studerats, målet har varit att se hur den ska kunna omarbetas så att den blir lättare att tolka och mer överskådlig för flera inom underhåll.Idén har varit att använda all den data som finns tillgänglig för att skapa graf eller grafer över längre tid för att leta efter trender inom system som är snarlika varandra, vilket finns eftersom det finns redundans i systemen och block 1 & 2 är syskonblock, så det går att jämföra mellan dem.Vidare är det tänkt att implementera resultatet från detta arbete i balanserade styrkort (Scorecard) som redan används på Forsmark i dagsläget, detta görs för att få in data över hur underhållet går och hur många maskiner som behöver underhållas jämfört med tidigare perioder.Arbetet har gått ut på att hämta datafiler från Forsmarks databas och via ett Excel script som omarbetar all data så att grafer kan skapas över de olika mätningar som utförs regelbundet av Underhållsgruppen NMM 1–3 (Mekaniskt underhåll) på Forsmark.Arbetets resultat har verifierats genom den speciella programvara som NMM 1–3 använder men som övriga grupper inte har erfarenhet av. Där finns alla grafer och all data redan att tillgå, något som inte finns lika enkelt är dock möjligheten att jämföra olika maskiner samtidigt, något som detta arbete försöker skapa.Då övriga inom underhåll inte har erfarenhet inom den programvaran så används Excel i stället, då det är ett program alla har tillgång till och god kunskap inom. Det som framkommer av arbetet är att mängden data är väldigt stor men möjligheten att komma till målet är goda, datafilerna behöver viss omarbetning för att enkelt kunna användas för graf skapande och vissa saker finns tyvärr inte med i datafilerna utan måste hämtas från specialprogramvaran NMM 1–3 har.

Abstract:

A windows based computer program to compute fish back-calculated lengths at age was created using Visual Basic 6.0© programming language. The objective of this project was to develop a computer program that is user-friendly and requires minimal user input to produce back-calculations. This program incorporates the familiar windows based graphical user interface and can compute up to 10,000 fish with a maximum age of 50 years. The input data can be imported from an Excel spreadsheet or manually entered directly to the program. Back-calculated lengths were computed using the traditional Lee method [ (L; = a + [ (L, - a) ( S; / Sc ) ]. Additional related statistical outputs are also included. The output data can be viewed using Excel where it can also be formatted for individual use. The program was compared with DisBcal using yellow perch age and length data. Results of the comparison were nearly identical with differences due to a rounding function of the output data.

A set of widely distributed brain areas, collectively known as the fronto-parietal network, serve to modulate aspects of visual perception. However, the unique influence exerted by these regions on low-level visual processing remains unclear. The goals of this thesis were (1) to examine how right frontal, parietal and occipital brain areas interact to process and modulate visual function and (2) to investigate the ability to improve foveal visual performance by means of noninvasive neurostimulation. In a first set of experiments, visual percepts known as 'phosphenes' were measured following low-frequency neurostimulation of the right occipital pole, Intraparietal Sulcus (IPS) or Frontal Eye Fields (FEF). Stimulation of the occipital pole and IPS were capable of evoking phosphenes with similar appearances. Furthermore, occipital or IPS stimulation decreased the excitability of the locally stimulated region but had no effect on the non-stimulated brain area. These results indicate a lack of sufficient inter-regional interactions capable of supporting long-range changes in brain activity. In a second set of experiments, contrast sensitivity and reaction times were assessed as the capacity to detect centrally located, high or low spatial frequency stimuli. Low-frequency rTMS to the FEF, but not the occipital pole or IPS improved contrast sensitivity for high spatial frequency stimuli. Stimulation of the occipital pole decreased reaction times for low spatial frequency stimuli and was shown to depend on transcollicular projections. Finally, stimulation of the IPS decreased reaction times for both types of stimuli. These effects however did not appear to depend on transcollicular pathways, indicating that performance was enhanced through cortico-cortical connections. In a final set of experiments, we investigated whether patterns of individual white matter connectivity linking stimulated brain regions could predict the effects of neurostimulation on visual processing and performance. None of the probability measures however correlated with changes in visual performance. Overall, these data suggest that occipital, parietal, frontal and tectal areas uniquely contribute to the modulation of visual perception. Moreover, results show that targeted stimulation to these brain regions serves to generate lasting improvements in visual performance, which could be used to enhance aspects of vision in healthy and clinical populations.

Abstract:

On the basis of a strong body of data, the Institute of Medicine currently recommends at least 60 minutes of exercise per day to prevent body weight gain overtime. Previous studies have shown that there is no compensatory increase in food intake with this dose of exercise. Ultimately, the brain decides whether to alter food intake. Surprisingly, no published studies have assessed the impact of exercise on brain activation. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and an appetite questionnaire, we investigated the effects of a single bout of aerobic exercise on brain responses to visual food cues and subjective appetite responses. After an overnight fast, 30 (17M, 13W), healthy, habitually active subjects (22.0±3.8 years, 23.6±2.4 kg/m2, 44.3±8.3 mL∙kg-1∙min-1) either rested or exercised for 60 minutes, in a counterbalanced crossover design. Immediately after each condition, blood oxygen dependent levels were determined in response to visual food cues of different energy value during an fMRI scan. Exercise showed significantly greater activation (P < .005, uncorrected) in regions implicated in food inhibition (superior frontal gyrus, medial surface), and visual attention (precuneus, superior temporal gyrus, middle temporal gyrus and fusiform gyrus) regions. However, exercise did show a greater activation in a food reward region (medial orbitofrontal cortex). The rest condition only showed greater activation in a visual center (fusiform gyrus) and the midbrain. In addition, relative to no-exercise, subjective appetite responses were suppressed following the exercise bout. Taken altogether, these data suggest exercise may impact the brain in a direction expected to suppress food intake and increase food attention, which is in line with previous behavioral, biological and fMRI data. These findings may explain, at least partially, why aerobic exercise does not lead to a compensatory increase in food intake.

Abstract:

Debido al actual incremento de la competencia en los sectores productivos de Sabores y Perfumes y a la necesidad de una correcta documentación de todos los aspectos respecto a las actividades productivas de la planta como: • Tiempos de producción en pequeñas y grandes cantidades. • Cantidades producidas a la semana. • Número de no conformidades internas a la semana. • Capacidad de cada operador (cuantos materiales mezcla al día y semanalmente) con y sin tiempo extra. • Tiempos de entrega a cliente. • Cuantos paros al mes ocurrieron, así como su causa, raíz. • Instrucciones de manufactura Para poder captar toda esta información y ordenarla de forma que sea fácil ver si se tiene procesos saludables o no, se implementaron varios archivos de Excel algunos habilitados para macros. Con la implementación de estos archivos, el resultado es un completo reporte operacional de los departamentos de producción, con el cual serán posibles los siguientes puntos: • Toma de decisiones de forma rápida en caso de situaciones críticas. • Ver si los procesos están controlados o no. • Atrasos de entrega de producto para el cliente y causas. • El aumento o la disminución de la capacidad del personal operativo. • Tablas comparativas de los tiempos de producción y cuáles fueron las diferencias. • Ver fácilmente la tendencia al alza o a la baja de nuestros procesos, según sea el caso. Con esta información se les brindará apoyo a los supervisores de área para orientar el quehacer cotidiano del personal operativo, podrán vislumbrar a través de estudios más extensos con alguna de las herramientas de calidad si necesitan hacer cambios, ya sean drásticos o pequeños, para la optimización de los procesos no dejando de lado la seguridad y los altos estándares de calidad. El fin de estas actividades es estandarizar los procesos, irlos mejorando, y hacer que esa mejora se adapte a nuestro entandar, y así continuamente.
En la actualidad adquirir conocimiento y habilidades computacionales, en este caso “Excel nivel avanzado” es muy importante, pues todas las empresas manejan bases de datos inmensamente grandes y complejas, si la persona a cargo no cuenta con las habilidades necesarias este será un trabajo imposible. La herramienta Excel de la paquetería office es un programa del tipo hoja de cálculo que permite realizar operaciones con números organizados en una cuadrícula. Es útil para realizar desde simples sumas hasta cálculos de préstamos hipotecarios y otros mucho más complejos, como lo son la creación de bases de datos a partir de formularios, simulaciones, y con la utilización de macros es posible optimizar procesos administrativos. Estas habilidades las pude implementar en la planta de Firmenich Servicios de México S.A. de CV., una empresa suiza creada en 1895 enrolada en el negocio de la perfumería y saborizantes en líquido y polvo, hoy en día Firmenich cuenta con 63 instalaciones, unas dedicadas a la producción y distribución, otras a la creación de nuevos productos. Trabaje por año dos meses en el área de Sampling e Industrialización Sabores y Perfumes, en la cual era necesario tener una visión completa y estandarizar varios procesos, en este sentido se realizaron varios archivos en la aplicación de Excel, los cuales llevaron su periodo de prueba para su posterior aprobación, unas se hicieron para determinar los tiempos y las capacidades de los operarios del equipo, otras para la creación de bases de datos para tiempos de producción, limpieza y envasado, teniendo un fin común, la estandarización y procesos controlados. Además, llevé a cabo capacitaciones sobre 5S’S y reuniones semanales en cada área llamadas “Green Board”.

Abstract:

Adult learners face many difficulties in their learning programmes, particularly due to the fact that having mastered literacy in their mother tongues, they move on to further educational programmes which are mostly produced in English. In contemporary society, people need to be adept in a number of literacies, termed multiliteracies. Adult learners are rarely taught visual competence as visual images are relegated to illustrations for written texts, and attention is mainly focussed on the all-important written word. Adult basic education learners need to be able to interpret pictures in books, newspapers and magazines, just as much as they need to be able to read and write. It is the premise of this research that visual literacy enhances thinking skills and that adult learners need to be actively taught how to interpret visual images in order to more ably deal with the written word, the more 'important' part of literacy. The goals of this research are to develop understanding of the processes which go into understanding images and text, and to examine how pictures can be used to help adult learners develop proficiency in English. Another goal is to teach learners the basics of visual literacy so as to improve their comprehension of the plethora of images surrounding them. The research findings could help to inform adult educators facing the current crisis in Adult Basic Education and Training in South Africa, focusing on a little-studied aspect of literacy, visual literacy, one of the critical outcomes in the new South African curriculum for Adult Education and one of the multiliteracies required by citizens of today's world.

Abstract:

Employees today have necessary daily tasks that do not require human handling. The objective is to investigate two processes if they are suitable for automation as well as to create and evaluate a prototype. The goals are to analyze the process, examine appropriate tools for automation, compare the tools, create and evaluate prototype, and perform an acceptance test. Robotic Process Automation is about automating tasks that humans have to do. Good candidates for automation are time-consuming, repetitive, rule-based tasks, prone to human er- rors with clear goals and expectations. The preliminary study was conducted in the form of a literature study of web-based sources, and the analysis was done by breaking down the process in different parts. The comparison was carried out by investigating the features of these tools. The prototype was created on Windows in UiPath tools and the robot will work on Internet Explorer and Excel, which will have a macro written in Visual Basic for Applications. The client will look at the criteria given and also on the prototype output and provide a subjective response. UiPath, Workfusion, and Selenium test programs were created. The prototype automatically logs on to Visma PX by entering username and password. Then it navigates, searches for an assignment and retrieves the data available. Indata is filtered and typed into Excel for each activity and employee. Finally, a macro creates graphs. Time tests show that UiPath is significantly more optimized and faster at completing the test programs. UiPath has strong benefits with its tools.
Anställda idag har nödvändiga vardagsuppgifter som inte kräver mänsklig inverkan och tanken är att frigöra dessa uppgifter. Projektets övergripande syfte är att undersöka två processer om de är lämpliga för automation samt att skapa och utvärdera en prototyp. Målen är att analysera processen, undersöka lämpliga verktyg för automatisering, jämföra verktygen, skapa en prototyp, utvärdera prototypen och utföra ett acceptanstest. Robotic Process Automation handlar om att automatisera uppgifter som människor gör. Bra kandidater för automatisering är tidskrävande, repetitiva, regelbaserade uppgifter, benägna till mänskliga fel med klara mål och förväntningar. Förstudien genomfördes i form av en litteraturstudie av webbaserade källor och analysen gjordes genom att bryta ner processen i olika delar. Jämförelsen genomfördes genom att undersöka de funk- tioner som verktygen har. Prototypen skapas på Windows i verktygen UiPath och roboten kommer att arbeta på Internet Explorer och mot Excel som kommer ha ett makro skrivet i Visual Basic for Applications. Beställaren kommer att titta på de kriterier som gavs och även på prototypens utdata och ge en subjektiv respons. Testprogrammen i UiPath, Workfusion och Selenium skapades med sina respektive funktioner. Prototypen loggar automatiskt in på Visma PX genom att skriva in användarnamn och lösenord. Sedan navigerar den i verktyget, söker på ett uppdrag och hämtar den data som finns. Indata filtreras och skrivs in i Excel för varje aktivitet och anställd. Slutligen körs ett makro som skapar grafer. Tidstesterna visar att UiPath är betydligt mer optimerad och snabbare på att slutföra testprogrammen. Jämförelserna visar att UiPath har starka fördelar med sitt verktyg.

Abstract:

Vibrations caused due to aerodynamic excitation may cause severe limitation to the performance of turbomachines. The force resulting from the non-uniform pressure distribution within the labyrinth cavity is identified as a major source of this excitation. In order to perform rotor dynamic evaluation of rotor-bearing-seal system, accurate prediction of this force is essential.

A visual basic based front-end, for a labyrinth seal analysis program, has been designed herein. In order to accurately predict the excitation force, proper modeling of labyrinth leak path is important. Thus, the front-end developed herein incorporates a leak-path geometric diagram for visual analysis of labyrinth leak path and tooth location. Furthermore, to investigate influence of various operating conditions and gas properties on excitation force (effective cross-coupling stiffness), a parametric study is performed on both the eye seal and the balance piston labyrinth seal.

A análise de isótopos de U-Pb por Laser Ablation Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (LA-ICPMS) se popularizou nas geociências em função do seu custo relativamente baixo, da razoável precisão obtida e da velocidade com que os dados podem ser gerados. Para estudos que requerem grande quantidade de idades, como na análise de proveniência de bacias sedimentares, esse método mostra-se muito vantajoso. Entretanto, essa mesma velocidade de análise é acompanhada por um grande volume de dados a serem reduzidos. O projeto aqui descrito teve como objetivo o emprego de métodos computacionais na automação do processo de redução de dados. Utilizando a linguagem Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), intrinsecamente relacionada ao Microsoft Excel, todo as etapas de redução foram incluídas em único programa: Chronus. Por meio desse programa é possível escolher os parâmetros pertinentes à redução (tipo de detectores, padrões analisados, método de propagação de incertezas, etc.), importar os dados brutos automaticamente, corrigir o branco do método, corrigir as razões das amostras usando os padrões e finalmente calcular as incertezas. O Chronus cria um arquivo no formato excel com diferentes planilhas, nas quais são guardadas as confingurações escolhidas, as informações de cada etapa da redução e os resultados. A capacidade do Chronus para redução de dados U-Pb por LA-ICPMS foi testada usando análises dos padrões de zircão 91500 (1065 Ma, Wiedenbeck et al., 1995) e Plešovice (337 Ma, Sláma et al., 2008), tomando o zircão GJ-1 (608 Ma, Jackson et al., 2004) como padrão primário. A propagação das incertezas do GJ-1 nas análises foi feita de duas maneiras: considerando as incertezas das análises antes e depois das amostras ou usando o Mean Square of the Weighted Deviates (MSWD) das razões de interesse do padrão. A redução de um grande número de amostras permitiu a observação de intensidades não esperadas da massa 202. Esse fenômeno foi observado também especificamente nas análises dos padrões citados anteriormente. Há uma aparente relação entre o conteúdo de Elementos Terras Raras (ETR) dos zircões com as intensidades da massa 202, talvez devido à formação de óxidos de ETR durante o carreamento do material proveniente da câmara de ablação para os detectores.
The U-Pb analysis by Laser Ablation Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (LA-ICPMS) became popular in geosciences due to its low cost, reasonable precision and rapid analysis. For studies that require a large number of ages, like in sediment provenance studies, this method is advantageous. Although, the high analysis speed is also followed by a big volume of data to be reduced. The project described in this dissertation had the objective to use computational methods to automatize the data reduction process. Using the Visual Basic for Applications programming language, which is intrinsically related to Microsoft Excel, all data reducing steps were included in a single program: Chronus. By using this program it is possible to choose the analyses’ settings (the type of collectors, the analyzed standards, the error propagation method, etc.), automatically import the raw data, subtract the signal of the blank from the samples, correct the samples’ ratios based on the standards’ analyses and calculate the uncertainties. Chronus creates a Excel spreadsheet with many sheets where the settings, the information of each step of data reduction and the results are stored. The capacity of Chronus to reduce U-Pb data obtained by LA-ICPMS was tested using analyses of the 91500 (1065 Ma, Wiedenbeck et al., 1995) and Plešovice (337 Ma, Sláma et al., 2008) zircon standards, using the GJ-1 standard (608 Ma, Jackson et al., 2004) as primary standard. Propagation of the GJ-1’s uncertainties into analyses was done by two different ways: taking into account the uncertainties of GJ-1’s analyses before and after the sample or using the Mean Square of the Weighted Deviates (MSWD) of the standard’s ratios. Reducing a large number of samples allowed the observation of unexpected 202 mass signal. This phenomenon was observed also in the zircon standards discussed previously. It seems to have a relationship between the zircon grains’ Rare Earth Elements (REE) contents and the 200 mass intensity. It might be due to the REE oxide formation during the material transport from the ablation chamber to the detectors.

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to compare seventh-grade students' motivation and preference toward text-based programming using Visual Basic, and graphics-based programming using Robolab. Motivation was defined by the My Class Activities questionnaire using the dimensions of interest, challenge, choice, and enjoyment. Preference was determined through team and individual student choice. This study was conducted with 122 students from three 6-week technology education classes. This study examined two hypotheses. First, middles school students will be more motivated when using a graphics-based programming language than text-based as measured by the My Class Activities survey. The second hypothesis for this study was that middle school students preferred using graphic-based programming more than using text-based programming in an introductory experience. Student preference was identified individually and within a team environment.

Abstract:

Programmeringsspråken Visual C++, C# och VB.NET (Visual Basic.NET) jämförs, med tyngdpunkt på en praktisk jämförelse av fyra exempelapplikationer.

Exempelapplikationen WordCount visar att Visual C++ har förutsättningar förbäst prestanda, men att även C# och VB.NET ger helt godtagbar prestanda. Valet av färdiga klasser är viktigare än språket. Ett olämpligt val kan göra prestandan mycket sämre än förväntat, medan den allra bästa prestandan ofta erhålls med en egen implementering.

Applikationen FFT visar att flyttalsprestandan är bättre i C# än i VB.NET. Applikationen Clock visar att Visual C++ har en viss fördel i sitt färdiga ramverk för traditionella dokumentbaserade Windowsapplikationer.

C# och VB.NET vinner över Visual C++ i nästan alla övriga avseenden. De ger mindre mängd kod och tillhandahåller ny funktionalitet — som egenskaper, händelser, attribut och ett mycket omfattande klassbibliotek — som gör programmeringen enklare och mindre känslig för buggar och säkerhetshål. Valet mellan C# och VB.NET bör avgöras av projekttyp, företagskultur och utvecklarens individuella preferenser.

Abstract:

International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 25-28, 1999 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada
The trend of current data acquisition and recording systems is to capture multiple streams of Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) data on a single media. The MARS II data recording system manufactured by Datatape, the Asynchronous Realtime Multiplexer and Output Reconstructor (ARMOR) systems manufactured by Calculex, Inc., and other systems on the market today are examples of this technology. The quantity of data recorded by these systems can be impressive, and can cause difficulties in post-test data processing in terms of data storage and turn around time to the analyst. This paper describes the system currently in use at the Strategic Systems Combined Test Force B-1B division to simultaneously post-flight process up to twelve independent PCM streams at twice real-time speeds. This system is entirely personal computer (PC) based running the Window NT 4.0 operating system with an internal ISA bus PCM decommutation card. Each PC is capable of receiving and processing one stream at a time. Therefore, the core of the system is twelve PCs each with decommutation capability. All PCs are connected via a fast ethernet network hub. The data processed by this system is IRIG 106 Chapter 8 converted MIL-STD-1553B bus data and Chapter 4 Class I and II PCM data. All system operator inputs are via Distributed Component Object Modeling (DCOM) provided by Microsoft Developers Studio, Versions 5.0 and 6.0, which allows control and status of multiple data processing PCs from one workstation. All data processing software is written in-house using Visual C++ and Visual Basic.

Abstract:

Supply planning is one of the key steps in an apartment building constructionproject, due to the repetitive nature of these projects where the constructionpace therefore has a crucial importance. However, if the working forceplanning and the materials planning are often acknowledged as important,the equipment supply planning can happen to be considered as secondary.Therefore less effort has been put in the tools used to make this planning.This master thesis is the result of a work in collaboration with the methodsdepartment at Eiffage Construction Habitat, one of the most important Frenchconstruction companies. It presents the implementation of a tool that automatesan important part of the equipment supply planning in order to gain efficiencyduring this planning process and to be able to focus deeper on the keyissues of the project. This tool allows to drastically reduce the time spentduring the supply planning for the equipment of the structural phase, bothregarding vertical works (walls and columns) and horizontal works (floors,beams and balconies). Along with making the planning more efficient, itallows to standardize the output documents and facilitate the work of theother departments with whom the methods department collaborates. Resultingfrom a case study and an internal survey, the implemented tool relies onthe Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications technology, allowing to staywithin the users’ range of mastered software, therefore improving the adoptionpotential of the tool. The results analysis showed a great satisfaction from theusers, both regarding the abilities of the tool and its form.
Resursplaneringen är ett av de viktigaste stegen i ett projekt för byggandeav flerbostadshus på grund av den repetitiva karaktären hos dessa projektdär bygghastigheten därför har en avgörande betydelse. Men om arbetskraftsplaneringenoch materialplaneringen ofta ses som viktiga kan planeringenav utrustningsförsörjningen råka betraktas som sekundär. Därför har mindreansträngningar lagts på de verktyg som används för att göra denna planering.Detta examensarbete är resultatet av ett arbete i samarbete med metodavdelningenvid Eiffage Construction Habitat, ett av de viktigaste franska byggföretagen.Arbetet presenterar implementeringen av ett verktyg som automatiseraren viktig del av planeringen av utrustningsförsörjningen för att få effektivitetunder denna planeringsprocess och för att kunna fokusera djupare på deviktigaste frågorna i projektet. Detta verktyg gör det möjligt att drastisktminska den tid som spenderas under leveransplaneringen för konstruktionsfasensutrustning, både när det gäller vertikala arbeten (väggar och pelare)och horisontella arbeten (golv, balkar och balkonger). Tillsammans med atteffektivisera planeringen möjliggör det att standardisera utdata och underlättaarbetet för de andra avdelningar som metodavdelningen samarbetar med.Till följd av ett studiefall och en intern undersökning är det implementeradeverktyget beroende av Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications-tekniken,vilket gör det möjligt att hålla sig till denprogramvara som användarnashar tillgång till och kan behärska, , vilket förbättrar möjligheter för attverktyget ska accepteras och använda verktyget. Resultatanalysen visade enstor tillfredsställelse från användarna, både vad gäller kan leverera och hurgränssnittet till användaren är utformat.

Abstract:

International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 28-31, 1996 / Town and Country Hotel and Convention Center, San Diego, California
In the last few years there has been a proliferation of GPS receivers and receiver manufacturers. Couple this with a growing number of DoD test programs requiring high accuracy Time-Space-Position-Information (TSPI) with diminishing test support funds and/or needing a wide area, low altitude or surface tracking capability. The Air Force Development Test Center (AFDTC) recognized the growing requirements for using GPS in test programs and the need for a low cost, portable TSPI processing capability which sparked the development of the Desktop GPS Analyst. The Desktop GPS Analyst is a personal computer (PC) based software application for the generation of GPS-based TSPI.

Abstract:

Detta projekt drevs på uppdrag av Flex Datasystem som behövde en vidareutveckling av deras aktuella hemsida. Här finns bland annat möjlighet att direkt ladda ner uppdateringar för kundernas program. Problemet var att hemsidan inte innehöll någon information om uppdateringarna. Kunderna måste då vända sig direkt till supporten för att få information om vad som har åtgärdats. Det här projektet gick ut på att utveckla en funktionalitet som, med automatik, publicerar information om varje uppdatering. Informationen skulle föras över från Flex Datasystems interna system till kundzonen med hjälp av en webbtjänst. Utvecklingen skedde mestadels i Visual Studio miljö. I projektets början infördes några nya funktioner till företagets interna system. Därefter skapades själva webbtjänsten och till sist lades en ny sida till på företagets hemsida som använde sig av denna webbtjänst. De krav som ställdes upp för det här projektet blev uppfyllda. Det visade sig att användandet av en webbtjänst fungerade mycket bra för det här ändamålet.

Abstract:

Un plan de extracción de stockpiles debe realizarse de manera que cumpla los objetivos establecidos y considere las restricciones a las cuales se enfrenta la operación minera. En este caso, el objetivo es maximizar la ley de plata que se enviará a la planta de procesos y la principal restricción será mantener la ley de cobre que se envía a planta dentro de un rango aceptable para que no perjudique la recuperación metalúrgica. El cobre que se obtenga no es comercializado por política de la empresa. El ejercicio numérico realizado en este estudio consistió en definir: la ley de corte para clasificar el mineral y el desmonte, generación de polígonos para secuenciar teniendo como unidad de planificación polígonos de 2,500 toneladas, secuenciamiento de extracción de polígonos utilizando un modelo de programación lineal mixta entera en la cual la función objetivo debe ser maximizar la ley de plata y las restricciones son las leyes y tonelajes máximos y mínimos que puede aceptar la planta concentradora. Finalmente, se realizó una evaluación económica para calcular los ingresos obtenidos del plan de extracción propuesto. Se obtuvo un plan de extracción para doce meses durante los cuales se extrae 964,520 toneladas de mineral con una ley promedio de plata de 6.31 oz/ton y 107,969 toneladas de desmonte. Los primeros ocho meses se logra cumplir con las 75,355 toneladas de mineral mensuales con una ley de plata promedio de 6.67 oz/ton y una ley de cobre menor a 0.125%. Los últimos cuatro meses del programa de extracción presenta un importante incremento de la ley de cobre debido a la culminación de los stocks de baja de ley de cobre. Finalmente, en la evaluación económica, este plan nos genera unos ingresos totales de 19.6 millones de dólares por los doce meses.

Abstract:

Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Technology: Design in the Faculty of Informatics and Design at the Cape Peninsula University of Technology 2013
Digital drawing and animation, using basic computer software, opens up new possibilities in creative practice-‐led research. The digital medium, with its relative ease of reproduction and storage of images, facilitates a reflective method of thinking-‐while-‐ drawing, thereby stimulating the creative process and providing a unique means of reflection-‐in-‐action. The computer’s ability to record images allows for temporal disruption, providing possibilities for exploring alternative creative solutions as well as retrospective, reflection-‐on-‐action. This thesis presents an interrogation of the researcher’s creative practice, as well as the findings and creative artefacts of other relevant practitioners in the field of digital drawing, animation, and related creative activities. A reflexive methodology was used to investigate the relationship between making, doing, and knowing in creative practice. The findings are supported by creative outputs (making), reflection on the creative process in relation to supporting literature (doing), and knowledge resulting from this reflection together with related theoretical research (knowing). The research revealed that digital drawing and animation supports new modes of making resulting in the production of original creative artefacts. It was further revealed that in relation to “doing”, the digital medium supports reflective practice by enabling the creative practitioner to document and reflect on these outputs both during and after making. The resulting reflexive actions combined with theoretical research lead to revelations concerning the relationship between thinking and drawing when using digital media as well as in a broader sense. The study thus contributes insights concerning art and design thinking, and makes a contribution to new developments in visual arts and design research. Practice-‐led research introduces a theoretical paradigm that has methodological implications particularly in the context of the current re-‐structuring and transformation of art and design education at South African Universities of Technology. The findings indicate that digital drawing and animation can encourage a critical and reflective approach not only in the work of creative practitioners by supporting new modes of making, but that it also has positive implications for visual arts research and teaching. In this regard the research highlights the need for promoting the integration of theory and practice in visual arts and design education curricula.

Abstract:

The task of this project was to build an computer processing system for pressureregulation, in which the pressure loss over the open hydrolicvalve should be kept as low as possible. By using an cross connected proportional directional valve the valve problem could be solved. The control- and regulationproblem for the pressureregulation system was solved by using the DAQ- card NI6035E from National Instruments and the computerprogram Automatic Pressure Control 1.0 which has been software developed and written in Visual Basic. The final result showed that correct processvarible was obtained in 0,5 seconds, when the setpoint was changed in the testarea 0 - 2,5 MPa.

Uppgiften för examensarbetet har varit att bygga ett processdatorsystem för tryckreglering, där tryckfallet över öppen hydraulventil skall hållas så lågt som möjligt. Med hjälp av en korskopplad proportionalriktningsventil kunde uppgiftens ventilproblem lösas. Styr- och reglerproblemet för tryckreglersystemet löstes med mätkortet NI-6035E från National Instruments och datorprogram- met Automatic Pressure Control 1.0 som mjukvaruutvecklades och skrevs i Visual Basic. Det slut- giltiga resultatet gav att korrekta ärvärden erhölls efter 0,5 sekunder, när börvärdet förändrades inom testområdet 0 - 2,5 MPa.
