        CORVALLIS - A one-day regional forum on industrial energy
  efficiency will be held Thursday, Nov. 12, at the Energy Resource Center
  in Tualatin (suburban Portland). It is co-sponsored by Oregon State
  University (OSU), the Washington State Energy Office, Pacific Power and
  Light, and Bonneville Power Administration (BPA).

        Joseph Junker, OSU Extension industrial energy specialist, said
  the Northwest Industrial Energy Forum is an opportunity for energy
  professionals to share ideas, technical information, and experiences
  through informal presentations and discussions. This is the fourth of
  such forums. They are held every six months, alternating between
  Washington and Oregon.

        Junker said the forum is for representatives of Northwest
  manufacturers, engineering companies, state energy offices, utilities,
  and BPA.

        The morning agenda will include presentations on industrial
  technology monitoring for research and energy savings verification, and
  linkage between energy savings opportunities and environmental concerns.

        The afternoon agenda will include a presentation and panel
  discussion on future energy costs and availability, a technology
  research update, and an industrial energy project case study.

        Additional information and registration materials are available
  from Junker, 737-5034. Registration fee of $30 includes lunch and break
  refreshments.

Subject: A question on Laplace eq.
Date: 3 Sep 1992 17:30:46 GMT
Organization: University of California, Berkeley
Distribution: world
NNTP-Posting-Host: garnet.berkeley.edu

Hi, Sirs,
I have a question about if a Laplace equation 

       div grad T = 0       in a smooth enough domain,

is well-posed under following boundary condition:

    - dT/dn = a ( T*T*T*T - c),  on the domain boundary, 

    (note: T*T*T*T means T to the fourth power.)
where n is in the direction of outward unit normal along the boundary,
a, c is constant, and  a>0.

This boundary is equivalent to a radiation along boundary; heat
conducted from the domain is radiated to out side environment.

Can anybody prove that the problem is well-posed? 

If possible, please reply to this account directly. Thanks.

             depending on qualifications and experience


        A Computer Modeller/Analyst is required to develop and
        utilize computer codes to analyze the thermal and
        mechanical response of CANDU fuel channels under transient
        conditions.  Immediate work involves the development of
        theoretical models or computer codes to facilitate the
        understanding of the physical phenomena embedded in the
        various experiments, and the comparison of the actual
        experimental results with the predictions.

        An advanced degree in Mechanical, Chemical or Nuclear
        Engineering, Applied Mathematics, or Physics is preferred,
        although a bachelors degree with high academic standing and
        relevant experience in research will also be considered.  

        A strong background in heat transfer and scientific
        programming is essential.  Additional background in fluid
        flow dynamics, solid mechanics or materials science is
        desirable.  Demonstrated technical report writing and oral
        communications skills would be useful assets.

        The Whiteshell Laboratories is located at Pinawa, an
  attractive recreational/residential community on the banks of the
  Winnipeg River, northeast of Winnipeg.  We are a 1000 employee
  laboratory with research interests in both nuclear and non-
  nuclear activities.  The laboratory has a strong, comprehensive
  complement of in-house support services/facilities and research
  is well supported with advanced experimental equipment and
  computers.

I'll take a crack at this although it's been 30 years since I've been
exposed to the topic.  As I recall, "green-sand" is sand containing a small
amount of clay and moisture to permit packing and provide some strength.
The term "green" thus refers to new or not fully processed.  "Dry-sand",
on the other hand, is sand and linseed oil or other resins that is packed,
then dried and/or baked to give much stronger properties such as needed
for cores.

"green" refers to uncured (wet) as in "green" concrete...

Hi,

I want to pick data off the serial port(RS232C) and Manchester
code it. I found that Harris makes a chip which does encoding and
decoding (HD6409). I am wondering if anybody has delt with the
chip? Is it possible to encode data off the serial port right
away or do I have to bring the data to TTL level?

Is it good to use the chip or shall I build my own encoder?
Any suggestion as to how to build the encoder/decoder?

thanks

We are looking for a finite element package that has the following features:

* Free definitions of our own elements.
* Possibilities to link with other sofware
* It should run on a sun-4 (sparc)
* Graphical representations
