The rapid development within the field of measurement methods and techniques and software design that has taken place over the last years offers new possibilities for designers of measurement systems through the use of virtual instruments as building blocks. The concept of virtual instrumentation is developed within the interchangeable virtual instrument foundation. A closely related term is “synthetic instruments”, which is often used for essentially the same concept, but it is even more software oriented. Synthetic instruments as a research field are in an initial stage and a quick search on “Synthetic instruments” in Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) explorer match close to 30 documents. IEEE explorer is a database that provides full-text access to IEEE transactions, journals, magazines and conference proceedings, and all current IEEE Standards.
This Master Thesis is a theoretical work extracted from study material, IEEE documents and web-resources referenced. The work gives the reader an overview of the Synthetic Instruments and their functionality with respect to hardware and software. The papers were analyzed based upon the various trends in the research, development and productizing phases.
For this approach; kernel architecture of an ideal synthetic instrument has been introduced as a prototype around which current technologies and applications can be addressed. The major areas of focus in the architecture are the data conversion and signal conditioning; the knowledge of its working under current implemented technologies has been highlighted and discussed in regards to the software and hardware trends. The defense industry holds the major influence.
The work was aimed towards giving a state-of-the art introduction to synthetic instrument technology; also in order to provide the work an introductory nature, only one hardware & software example has been discussed.

Pełny tekst źródłaEste trabalho tem como objetivo avaliar a influência da conicidade de instrumentos de níquel-titânio acionados a motor, na flexibilidade; na resistência a fratura por torção à direita e na resistência a fratura por flexão rotativa, analisando ainda por meio de microscopia eletrônica de varredura a superfície de fratura dos instrumentos ocorridas por torção e por flexão rotativa, bem como a configuração das hélices das hastes de corte helicoidais dos instrumentos junto ao ponto de fratura. Foram utilizados sessenta instrumentos fabricados em níquel-titânio acionados a motor da marca K3 (Sybron Dental Specialties-Kerr, México), valores nominais de 25mm de comprimento, e de 0,25mm de diâmetro em Do, nas conicidades de 0,02 0,04 e 0,06mm/mm. Dez instrumentos endodônticos de cada conicidade foram avaliados por meio do ensaio não destrutivo de flexão em cantilever e dez instrumentos endodônticos de cada conicidade foram avaliados por meio dos ensaios destrutivos de torção à direita e de flexão rotativa. Diante das metodologias empregadas, dos resultados obtidos e após a execução dos testes estatísticos: Análise de variância no nível de significância de 5%, e do teste de comparações múltiplas de Student-Newman-Keuls a 5%, podemos concluir que: A flexibilidade dos instrumentos ensaiados diminui com o aumento da conicidade da haste de corte helicoidal. O ângulo máximo de torção dos instrumentos ensaiados por torção diminui com o aumento da conicidade da haste de corte helicoidal. O torque máximo até a fratura dos instrumentos ensaiados por torção aumentou com o aumento da conicidade da haste de corte helicoidal. O número de ciclos para a fratura em flexão rotativa diminui com o aumento da conicidade e com o aumento da resistência em flexão (diminuição da flexibilidade) dos instrumentos endodônticos ensaiados. E quanto à análise por meio do microscópio eletrônico de varredura, independentemente, da conicidade e do tipo de carregamento, (torção ou flexão rotativa) aplicado ao instrumento endodôntico, podemos concluir que as amostras fraturadas apresentaram superfície de fratura com característica dúctil. No ensaio de torção, observou-se a reversão do sentido das hélices das hastes de corte helicoidais junto ao ponto de imobilização dos instrumentos. No ensaio de flexão rotativa não ocorreu reversão do sentido das hélices das hastes de corte helicoidais (deformação plástica visível) dos instrumentos fraturados.
This work has as purpose to evaluate the influence of motor driven nickel-titanium instruments tapering, in the flexibility, resistance to fracture by twisting to the right by rotating flexure, analyzing also by means of scanning electronic microscopy the instruments fracture surface arising by twisting and rotating flexure, as well as the configuration of helices of helical cutting rods of instruments near the fracture point. Sixty instrument made of nickel- -titanium and motor-driven of K3 brand were used (Sybron Dental Specialties-Kerr, Mexico), nominal value of 25mm long, and 0,25mm diameter in Do, in tapering of 0,02 0,04 and 0,06mm/mm. Ten endodontic instruments of each tapering were evaluated by means of the non destructive test of flexure in cantilever and ten endodontic instruments of each tapering were evaluated by means of destructive tests twisting to the right and rotating flexure. After the performance of statistic test,: variance analysis at significance level of 5%, and multiple comparison test from Student-Newman-Keuls to 5%, Taking into consideration the implemented methodology, the applied statistical techniques (e.g. variance analysis at significance level of .05 and multiple comparison test from Student-Newman-Keuls at significance level of .05), and the obtained results, it was demonstrated that the flexibility of the instruments tested decreases as the tapering of the helices of helical cutting rods increases. The maximum twisting angle of the instruments tested by twisting decreases as the tapering of the helices of helical cutting rods increases. The maximum torque up to the fracture of the tested instruments increased as the tapering of the helices of helical cutting rods increased. The number of cycles for the fracture in rotating flexure decreases as the tapering increase and the increase of the resistance in flexure (flexibility decrease) of the tested endodontic instruments increased. The analysis by scanning electronic microscopy revealed that, independently of the tapering and the rotating type (twisting or rotating flexure) applied to the endodontic instrument, the fractured samples presented fractured surface of ductile characteristics. A reversion of the helical cutting rods course was observed on the twisting test near the immobilization point. A reversion of the helical cutting rods course (visible plastic deformation) on the rotating flexure test of the fractured instruments was not observed.

This dissertation describes the research, development and reasoning behind a family of musical instruments called Exertion Instruments. They use inline electrical generators to run a synthesizer and an amplifier while eliminating the need for batteries. Efficient acoustic design minimizes the power requirements while optimized generator and ergonomic design maximize power generation. As such, they combine the convenience of acoustic instruments with the flexibility of electronic instruments. Also, through new generator designs, nuances of player charging movements become as important to expression as the overall intensity of their playing. The player treats the generator like a typical physical resonator such as a string, using musical instrument playing gestures. Yet they manipulate audio electronically, enabling practices like sampling, synthesis and modulation. During development, a modular approach using amateur-friendly materials was taken to empower future instrument builders to customize and improve the instrument. In addition to technical criteria based on measurements, Exertion Instruments are evaluated through player and builder experiences in a series of technical workshops and realworld performances.

Pełny tekst źródłaInstruments (measuring instruments, visualisation and optical devices, usual technical tools. . . ) play a role in the definition and coordination of practices. The aim of the PHD thesis is to relate three different aspects of the coordination through instruments : the practices involved in their use, the associated forms of action and the techno-economic networks of conception, distribution and use. This question is at the cross-road of different disciplines of the social sciences : sociology of scientific knowledge (SSK), cognitive science, pragmatics of the regimes of adjustments, psychology, ethnology of technology, sociology of innovation. The first part of the thesis studies the various forms of coordination associated with different kind of instruments. The inquiry focuses on car repairing activity and combines two complementary approaches : an ethnographical approach of the technical practices in a garage investigates the various form of competences involved in the use of instruments (perception, bodily knowledge, cognition, social abilities, know how …), an analysis of the industrial networks of car repairing shows that instruments take part actively in the techno-economic coordination of these networks. The second part of the thesis is centered on measuring instruments. It shows that metrology is a modality of coordination of the practices of assessment and control. The inquiry bears on two fieldworks : the extensive analysis of the systems of legal metrology and standardisation of an instrument of car pollution measurement, the study of a scientific instrument of atmospheric pollution measurement, from its conception in a research center up to its final practical use. This study tackles the following stages : construction and settling of an instrument in a scientific laboratory, assessment of prototype in metrology laboratory, construction of a commercial network for the diffusion of the product, intercomparison of several similar instruments

Instruments of Service are defined by the American Institute of Architects (AIA) as "representations, in any medium of expression now known or later developed, of the tangible and intangible creative work performed by the Architect." This thesis argues that the current instruments of service do not provide the scaffolding necessary to realize the ethical obligations as defined by the AIA. As cities change, architecture's fundamental obligations, as defined by AIA code of ethics, are threatened. To remain ethical, this thesis argues that the instruments of service must expand. This thesis explores the gap between architecture's obligations and its instruments of service against the backdrop of one such changing city: Boston. We begin with an investigation of the Seaport, one of the most rapidly changing neighborhoods within the city. We use this site as an opportunity to understand how a variety of architects and planners have positioned themselves and how they offer their services to a project that champions a new future for the city of Boston. Against this backdrop, we propose a new method and attitude of practice. We tested this proposed practice for a period of nine months on the ground in Boston and Cambridge. Specifically, we converted four unused sites into artist and community space-our involvement spanning from site identification to policy recommendations to daily operations. This thesis documents parts of that practice. Overall, this thesis is a suggestion and a real world test of one way architects can operate as instrumental shapers of the future of their city.

This dissertation deals with the problem of making inference when there is weak identification in models of instrumental variables regression. More specifically we are interested in one-sided hypothesis testing for the coefficient of the endogenous variable when the instruments are weak. The focus is on the conditional tests based on likelihood ratio, score and Wald statistics. Theoretical and numerical work shows that the conditional t-test based on the two-stage least square (2SLS) estimator performs well even when instruments are weakly correlated with the endogenous variable. The conditional approach correct uniformly its size and when the population F-statistic is as small as two, its power is near the power envelopes for similar and non-similar tests. This finding is surprising considering the bad performance of the two-sided conditional t-tests found in Andrews, Moreira and Stock (2007). Given this counter intuitive result, we propose novel two-sided t-tests which are approximately unbiased and can perform as well as the conditional likelihood ratio (CLR) test of Moreira (2003).
Esta dissertação trata do problema de inferência na presença de identificação fraca em modelos de regresso com variáveis instrumentais. Mais especificamente em testes de hipóteses com relação ao parâmetro da variável endógena quando os instrumentos são fracos. O principal foco é nos testes condicionais unilaterais baseados nas estatísticas de razão de máxima verossimilhança, score e Wald. Resultados teóricos e numéricos mostram que o teste t condicional unilateral baseado no estimador de mínimos quadrados em dois estágios tem uma boa performance mesmo na presença de instrumentos fracamente correlacionados com a variável endógena. A abordagem condicional corrige uniformemente o tamanho do teste t e quando a estatística F populacional é tão pequena quanto dois, o poder do teste é próximo ao power envelope tanto de testes similares quanto de não similares. Tal resultado é surpreendente visto a má performance dos testes t’s condicionais bilaterais relatada em (6, Andrews, Moreira and Stock (2007)). Dado esse resultado aparentemente contra intuitivo, apresentamos novos testes t’s condicionals bilaterais que são aproximadamente não viesados e performam, em alguns casos, tão bem quanto o teste condicional baseado na estatística de razão de verossimilhança de ( 19 , Moreira (2003)).

Pełny tekst źródłaThe present study investigated the cutting ability resistance in nickel-titanium instruments after nitrogen ion implantation treatment. Twenty-one instruments of K3 ?ENDO brand, number 20.02, with 21 mm, were divided in two groups. The group 1 submitted 11 instruments to nitrogen ion implantation chamber, while on served as positive control for the determination of the ion implantation quantity. In group 2, the 10 instruments were not submitted to ion implantation treatment. Each file instrumented 20 acrylic blocks 20.02 with 21 mm, previously washed in ultrasonic container with detergent in 40°C for 10 minutes and then with bidestiled water for 10 minutes. They were dried and put in a 40°C stove for 2 days and finally weighed in analytic balance. After instrumentation the blocks were washed for 20 minutes and weighed again. The usage essay was realized through the instrumentation of each block using an endodontic instrumentation simulated action, with a 2,5 mm standardized distance for 8 times, getting a total of 2,0 cm inside the simulated canal with a strong penetration of 1,5 N. The results showed that there was no statistical difference in cutting resistance of instruments treated with ionic implantation process until 20 uses. Although in the non treated instruments there was a gradual reduce in cutting ability resistance from 5 to 20 uses. The conclusion was that the nitrogen ion implantation process increases the cutting resistance of nickel-titanium instruments.

The magneto-elastic sensors are detection devices that can be remotely accessed and applied as biosensors having a mass sensitivity for detection of biological specimens, offering reliability in the detection of pathogens such as Escherichia coli. The pathogen detection methods generally require days to identify the pathogenic micro-organism, so there is interest in a rapid and accurate detection in real time. The magneto elastic biosensors are a promising alternative for this task. In this work, amorphous ribbons of Metglas 2826MB3 were coated with Au by the processes of sputtering and electrodeposition and segmented into 5 x 1 mm strips. We evaluated the roughness parameters arithmetic average height (Ra), root mean square roughness (Rq) and skewness (Rsk) using atomic force microscopy applied on three different surfaces (smooth, rough and polished). Seeking to improve the detection sensitivity of the device, the performance of the biosensors was evaluated in terms of the effects of different thiols on their performance. The compounds used differ in the size of the carbon chain and the terminal grouping which binds to the antibody. On the polished surface coated with Cr/Au by sputtering, we deposited the compounds cystamine (CYS), mercaptopropionic acid (MPA) and cysteamine (CYSTE), followed by antibodies. The biosensors were exposed to the bacteria E. coli in solution and the variation of the resonance frequency was measured with a network analyzer. It was found that the polished surface coated with Cr/Au by sputtering process showed lower values of Ra and Rq and a better distribution profile (Rsk) in relation to other surface studied. Biosensors employing the compound MPA showed an increase in attracting bacteria in relation to biosensors with CYS and CYSTE, but high standard deviations were observed, thus hampering the reproducibility and reliability of the biosensor. Biosensors tested with CYSTE showed higher efficiency and lower detection limit with respect to biosensors tested with CYS, indicating an improvement in the use of this compound. The results were favorable for the detection of E. coli, indicating that the size of carbon chain and the terminal grouping influence the effectiveness of immobilization of the magneto elastic biosensors.

Pełny tekst źródłaCurrent physical models of flute-like instrument allow to predict and interpret quite well the quasi-stationary behaviors associated to the sound modifications induced by a slow variation of control parameters, compared to the response time of the instrument. However, the musician varies continuously these parameters to articulate the music. During the attack transient a sharp variation of supply pressure starts progressively the vibration of the instrument. The birth of the sound plays an important role for its perception. The control of these attacks is therefore an essential point of interest for the musicians and the instrument makers.The purpose of the studies presented here is to characterize and interpret physically the different phenomena occurring during attack transients of recorders and organ pipes. Attacks played by expert or novice musicians allow to identify and quantify the mechanisms involved. The comparison between musicians allows then to determine phenomena they control and the ones imposed by the instrument.The impedance of the resonator end near the edge is then modelled and included in physical models in order to simulate attack transients. These simulations show the ability or failure of models to predict and to interpret the phenomena observed experimentally and their variability. These studies illustrate the complexity of the phenomena controlled by recorder players and instrument makers and identify the aspects that still need to be modelled in order to interpret them

Advancements in technology have made musical instruments, especially electronic instruments, accessible to the masses. As a result, music-making has become more widespread and convenient. However, the blackboxing practices of commercial Digital Musical Instruments (DMIs) have conditioned many users to produce only specific styles of music. Furthermore, as many of these commercial instruments produce sound through loudspeakers, rather than the body of the instrument, players lose the physical and tactile connection to sound and music. Consequently, these DMIs inhibit understanding of the relationship between musicality and our everyday physical world, and cut players off from exploring a more extensive range of musical possibilities. Despite the multiplication of music-making tools, music-making practices still operate on the same principles. The production of music requires instruments to generate organized physical sound energies that follow the schema of a score. This dissertation studies a new class of Interactive Music Systems (IMSs) called Score Instruments that embed both instrument and score into a single unified interface. Score Instruments reopen the range of possibilities offered by everyday sounds and objects as musical bricolage tools to bring players into a personalized, guided, and open-ended use of the instrument. Players of Score Instruments are called Musical Wonderers, as the instruments encourage them to focus on exploration to build their own musical language, rather than on the technically correct realization of music. The dissertation describes the concept of Score Instruments. Two instances of Score Instruments demonstrate how the techniques and criteria translate into specific IMSs. City Symphonies is a massive musical collaboration platform that encourages players to listen to their cities and create music with environmental sounds. MM-RT is a tabletop tangible musical instrument that employs electromagnetic actuators and small permanent magnets to physically induce sounds with found objects. Both projects exemplify how Score Instruments can simultaneously stimulate open creativity and provide meaningful direction and constraints that guide users to learn underlying principles about music and the physical world. The design investigations and historical perspective of this dissertation offer a future of music-making practice that is based on exploration and designed to broaden the definition and variety of music.

This thesis presents several new percussion instruments that explore the ideas of musical networks; playing, recording, and developing musical material; continuous control over rhythm and timbre; pressure sensing; and electronic / acoustic hybrids. These instruments use the tools of electronics and computation to extend the role of percussion by creating new ways for people to play percussion alone, together, and in remote locations. Two projects are presented in detail. The Beatbugs are a system of eight hand-held networked instruments that are designed to let children enter simple rhythmic motifs and send those motifs to be developed further by the other players. Results from three workshops and performances are discussed. Preliminary results are also presented for the Remote Drum Network, a system that lets people play drums together over the internet even in high latency situations by synchronizing their audio streams and delaying them to match each player's next phrase.

Pełny tekst źródłaI denna uppsats är ett generellt ramverk och medföljande riktlinjer för hur man klassificerar finansiella instrument inom fair value hierarkin (inkluderad i IFRS 13) presenterat. IFRS 13 introducerar en bred och löst definierad regulation om hur klassificering finansiella instrument ska gå till som lämnar rum för feltolkningar och oklarheter. I denna uppsats har prissättningen av finansiella instrument och beteende av marknadsdata som används i modellerna undersökts. Detta ger en bättre inblick i vad som klassificeras som signifikant marknadsdata, hur den används och hur den kan approximeras. Instrument som har undersökts är autocalls, swaps, europeiska optioner och asiatiska optioner. Resultatet presenteras som allmänna rekommendationer för hur man klassificerar de angivna instrumenten med tydligare gränser som införts mellan nivåerna i hierarkin. Metoder och slutsatser som är presenterade i uppsatsen kan även vidare användas vid klassifikation av liknande finansiella instrument men har i denna avhandling begränsats på grund av tidsskäl.

Pełny tekst źródłaSince the adoption of the International Financial Reporting Standards in Brazil, in 2010, the discussion on the classification of financial instruments between debt or equity instruments has intensified. When the law 11,638/07 was issued, changing the Brazilian Corporate Law of 1976, had the effect of introducing international accounting standards in the Brazilian accounting environment. However, many of the instruments and aspects of Brazilian corporate legislation have not changed or reassessed in the light of this new standard. From one moment to the next, companies were required to reclassify amounts from equity to debt, as were the various cases of redeemable shares. Even the classification of ordinary and preferred shares as equity instruments was questioned due to the statutory minimum mandatory dividend. In the meantime, Brazilian listed companies have issued certain financial instruments, analyzed and classified them as equity instruments. However, they had such a classification questioned by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Comission (CVM) and were required to restate their financial statements. Even internationally, this classification is not often obvious. The latest discussions in the international forum related to the classification of financial instruments as debt or equity focused on two approaches: the Narrow Equity Approach and the Strict Obligation Approach. This study aims to evaluate the classification of equity financial instruments as per the Brazilian corporate legislation in light of the International Financial Reporting Standards. Firstly, understanding and evaluating the cases of restatement of the financial statements of companies as determined by CVM due to misclassification of certain financial instruments as equity. Then, assessing the nature of equity instruments as per the Brazilian corporate legislation, especially the shares with priority dividends, and the impact of this priority in the financial statements of the company. Based on the results of the study, it was concluded that the restatements were related to the attempt of classifying typical debt instruments as equity, by amending certain of their terms, but not meeting all the requirements of the relevant accounting standard. Additionally, for companies with preferred shares with priority dividends, we observed that the instruments were classified as equity and that the priority has effectively brought benefits to these shareholders.

Pełny tekst źródłaO objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar três métodos de estimativa da evapotranspiração de referência (Hargreaves, Radiação Solar e Makkink), comparando-os com o método de Penman-Monteith, recomendado pela Organização das Nações Unidas para a Alimentação e Agricultura (FAO) como método padrão para estimativa da ETo, para o município de Pradópolis - SP. Para esse fim foi instalada no posto agrometeorológico da cidade de Pradópolis - SP uma estação meteorológica automatizada. Por intermédio desta estação foram obtidas medidas da radiação solar global, temperatura do ar, umidade relativa do ar e velocidade do vento. A análise dos resultados foi feita por uma técnica que considera os erros da ET0. O resultado da avaliação dos métodos indica um melhor ajuste para estimativa da ETo para o método de Hargreaves. Os métodos de Makkink e Radiação Solar não obtiveram um ajuste satisfatório com o do Penman-Monteith. Para avaliar métodos de estimativa da evapotranspiração deve-se considerar os erros da estimativa da ETo, evitando possíveis erros de avaliação
The aim of this investigation was to evaluate two reference methods to Monteith method, recommended by the Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations (FAO) as the standard method for estimating ETo in Pradópolis - SP. To this data collection, an automated weather station was installed in the meteorological station at Pradópolis - SP. Through estimate evapotranspiration (Hargreaves, Radiation and Makkink), compared to Penman-this station, we obtained measures of global solar radiation, air temperature, relative humidity and wind speed. The analysis was done by a technique that considers the mistakes of ETo, which depends on the combination of the errors of the variables that make up the estimating equations, derived from the measurement instruments used to obtain these variables. The aftermath showed a better adjustment to Hargreaves. Makkink, and Radiation methods are different from Penman-Monteith, therefore, they cannot be compared. To evaluate methods to estimate evapotranspiration and avoid possible evaluation errors, ETo estimate errors must be considered

Pełny tekst źródłaIt is the duty of professionals working in the area of measurement discuss issues involving the maintenance/calibration of geodesic instruments in the laboratory and the use of specific standards directed to the areas of instrumentation and Quality Management System. Therefore, it is important to dimensional standards ISO 17123:2001, ISO/IEC 17025:2005, ISO 9001:2000 and compact laboratory methods aimed at testing EDM instruments and total stations. In this context, the main objective of this research is to discuss issues related to maintenance/calibration of geodetic instruments in the laboratory, showing the importance of implementing the Quality Management System (QMS). Also discussed are advantages of this deployment, as well as the structural organization and personnel for such a system, with specific standards used to perform work in surveying. To better understand the theme of the thesis were searched some international laboratories that work with the maintenance/calibration of geodetic instruments, which are accredited to ISO 17025:2005 are certified by ISO 9001:2000 and realize their procedures in accordance with the requirements of ISO 17123:2001. Thus, the ratings on the organizational structure of the laboratory, the personnel structure and quality management system in place, were held more securely. The laboratories surveyed perform their activities in accordance with the requirements of ISO 9001:2000 and ISO 17025:2005 and ISO 17123, ensuring quality to work in laboratories. The calibration performed correctly and regularly contributes to the promotion of quality activities in the laboratories.
