Abstract: A conventional technique performs valve close control of an EGR valve after an EGR-gas back flow is detected. Therefore, the conventional technique has a subject that, if an EGR-gas flow direction changes from forward flow to back flow, a back flow condition will last not only for a response delay time of a detector but also for the judgment time by calculation processing and the actuation time of the EGR control valve. There is provided a control apparatus of an EGR control valve 11, comprising: an EGR control valve 11 which is provided in an exhaust gas recirculation passage to circulate exhaust gas of an combustion engine 19 from an exhaust gas passage 92 to an intake air passage; measurement means for measuring a flow rate of EGR gas flowing in the exhaust gas recirculation passage; and control means for receiving an input from the measurement means and closing the EGR control valve 11 if the EGR-gas flow rate is smaller than a predetermined threshold value when the EGR gas is flowing from the exhaust side to the intake side of the internal combustion engine 19.

Abstract: A servomotor in a numerical controller is controlled by automatically switching to either pressure control or position control in association with the command which is smaller from among a command obtained by performing pressure feedback control and a command obtained by performing position feedback control. When switched to pressure control while moving according to a movement command, the output of the movement command is terminated halfway, and the command in the next block is executed, and pressure control of the next command is immediately started. As a result, a wasteful time is eliminated, and a cycle time of the operation can be shortened

Abstract: A method and system for using spatially modulated excitation / emission and relative movement between a particle (cell, molecule, aerosol, ...) and an excitation / emission pattern are provided. In at least one form, an interference pattern of the excitation light with submicron periodicity perpendicular to the particle flow is used. As the particle moves along the pattern, emission is modulated according to the speed of the particle and the periodicity of the stripe pattern. A single detector, which records the emission over a couple of stripes, can be used. The signal is recorded with a fast detector read-out in order to capture the "blinking" of the particles while they are moving through the excitation pattern. This concept enables light detection with high signal-to-noise ratio and high spatial resolution without the need of expensive and bulky optics.
