Abstract: A method for controlling a steam turbine with a steam bleed for various operational tasks is provided. The operational tasks are each characterized by the type of the controlled variables used for controlling the steam turbine. A control structure is used for deriving actuating signals for actuating elements for valves. The actuating signals are derived from control signals of the regulators which are used. Only a single control structure is used for all the operational tasks. As a result, the configuration of the control is simplified, the control signals are decoupled, and a smooth changeover between the operational tasks is achieved. A device for controlling a steam turbine is also provided.

Abstract: A method for controlling a screw position of a screw in an injection molding machine uses a high-speed injection and high-speed depressurization method to perform the entire injecting process by controlling speed of the screw. The screw is moved forward to a predetermined first position from an injection start position, and when the screw reaches the predetermined first position, the screw is moved backward to a predetermined second position. The speeds of the forward and backward movement of the screw are controlled in accordance with a screw-position/speed characteristic pattern which is measured in advance, and which is derived from the equation V = (2.K.S)<1/2> where V is screw speed, K is screw acceleration, and S is screw position.

Abstract: Using sol-gel techniques, an optical gain medium has been fabricated comprising a glass ceramic host material that includes clusters of crystalline oxide material, especially tin oxide, and that is doped with active ions concentrated at the clusters. The active ions are preferentially located at the nanoclusters so that they experience the relatively low phonon energy of the oxide and are insensitive to the phonon energy of the host. A host with a high phonon energy, such as silica, can therefore be used without the usual drawback of reduced carrier lifetimes through enhanced nonradiative decay rates.
