    ZHOU Rencai1,2
    2010, 44 (12):  1631-1634. 
    Abstract ( 3147 )   Save
    A multi period trade model including the rat, the institutional investor and the other individual investors was constructed. The rat trade not only changes the institutional investor’s utility, but also deepens the information asymmetry among investors. The model is resolved by using rational expectation equilibrium methods. Through the quantitative research, this paper shows that the market strike coefficient about rat trade decreases and the volume of rat trade increases with the trade time. But in the course of multi period rat trade, the other investors can not learn more information about asset value.

    Large Shareholders’ Behavior of Assets Injection Under the Postperiod of Split Share Structure Reform
    TANG Zongming1,PAN Chenxiang1,LIU Hailong1,JIANG Keping2
    2010, 44 (12):  1641-1646. 
    Abstract ( 3375 )   Save
    This paper uses the economic optimal method and discount cash flow approach to explore the internal incentives of large shareholders’ assets injection. Then, assuming the large shareholders would tunnel the injected company, the paper analyzes the related factors of their net income of tunneling in order to disclose their motivation of assets injection. The modeling analysis shows that ① The profit of assets injection to large shareholders positively relates to the shareholders’ ownership, injection size, and priceearnings ratio of the listed company’s stock. ② The higher the operating efficiency of injected companies and the better synergistic effect of the injected assets, then the stronger incentives to asset injection from large shareholders. ③ Taking into account the market value of the share holdings, the tunneling incentives weaken. ④ Large shareholders’ tunneling proceeds are inversely proportional to injection size. So, the bigger injection size, the less prone to tunneling. Therefore, the assets injection itself induces the change of large shareholders’ behavior from tunneling to propping which will lead to a better firm performance.

    2010, 44 (12):  1647-1652. 
    Abstract ( 3530 )   Save
    Based on the stochastic frontier approach, this paper investigated the efficiency difference for different ownership type banks in the period of 1996 to 2008, and analyzed the relationship between the efficiency and ownership structure. The results show that both the stateowned shares ratio and ownership concentration have a significant inverted Ushape relationship with the bank efficiency, that is, for the banks of stateowned shares ranging of 15%-50% and banks of the top three shareholders equity ratio ranging of 20%-50%, the efficiency performance is the best. In addition, the more foreign equity shares in domestic banks, the higher efficiency reveals, moreover, the combination effect of private banks and foreign equity is superior to the stateowned banks with foreign shares. Therefore, in order to optimize operational efficiency of banks, the ownership reforms for Chinese banks should focus on reducing the ownership concentration through the introduction of different shares of stateowned or nonstateowned enterprises.

    Abstract ( 3280 )   Save
    This paper studied the dynamic evolution of academic creativity in university based on small world model. The academic creativity system comprises the researchers and the patterns in which they are organized. The interaction among those people yields the socalled academic creativity power. The design for a scientific and rational organization can enhance the academic creativity. The influence matrix theory based on NK model is adopted to describe the small world structure of the academic creativity system in university where N is the number of components in the system and K refers to the degree of interaction between components. The extremal dynamics in selforganized theory is used as the evolution mechanism. Finally, simulated evolution is conducted which demonstrate that the result of extreme dynamics evolution of the system is independent on the organizational topology structure if both N and K are fixed, while it is strongly dependent on K if only N is fixed.

    Abstract ( 3333 )   Save
    To analyze the coordination strategy for three level supply chain with fuzzy random demand, the quantity discount coordinating model for a three level supply chain consisting of a supplier, a manufacturer and a retailer was developed, in which the order quantity and reorder point are decision variables. The cost functions of individual members and supply chain were obtained and the corresponding algorithm was developed to find the optimal solution to the model. At last, a numerical example was given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model. The numerical analysis shows that incorporating quantity discounts can reduce three level supply chain cost , and incorporating quantity discounts into both upstream and downstream of the manufacturer can significantly decrease supply chain costs compared to concentrating only on the downstream. The cost of three level supply chain with fuzzy random demand is greater than that of three level supply chain with random demand.

    WANG Qiang,CHEN Hongmin,GUO Bing
    2010, 44 (12):  1687-1692. 
    Abstract ( 3345 )   Save
    According to the searching theory, this paper explored the effects of searching cost on equilibrium price and price dispersion following the variability of sellers’ reputation and network externalities. The results show that higher searching cost can make sellers with different reputation coexist in the online markets; in order to compete with the higher reputation sellers, sellers with lower reputation have to reduce the products price and thus leads to price dispersion; The increasing of network externalities can lead to more price dispersion. Furthermore, the advertisement by higherreputation sellers can improve buyers’ searching efficiency and reduce buyers’ searching activities. In order to compete with higherreputation firms, the lowerreputation sellers have to reduce the price and thus the price dispersion becomes more serious.

    Abstract ( 3250 )   Save
    In order to analyze the effect of competition on the healthcare quality and social welfare, this paper constructed the patients’ and hospitals’ behavior model and social welfare model. By means of analysis and comparision between the equilibrium models under different condition, the precondition that nonprice competition improves quality is that the proportion of highrisk patient’s segment is lower than a certain point. Also it got the conclusion that the effect of competition on the social welfare lies in the reimbursement rate and the ratio of highrisk patient. When the reimbursement rate is high and the ratio of highrisk patients is high, the competition can improve social welfare; also when the reimbursement rate is low and the ratio of highrisk patients is low, the competition can improve social welfare. To the problem in health care system in China, the advice was given on how to got the equilibrium.

    Abstract ( 3720 )   Save
    A model for calculating wearing capacity was established based on the exited wear theory and the research conclusions. The contact pressure and the relative velocity between shaft pin and paired hole in joints were calculated by analyzing a mechanism from its kinematics and dynamics. The reliability model of the output displacement for a slidercrank mechanism was set based on the two assumptions that the elements in a joints tally with the continual contacting model and all of the random factors to affect the motion accuracy tally with the normal distribution. An application case of the established model was calculated by using the designed MATLAB program. The results show that the wear influence on reliability of the output displacement of the mechanism is more clearly with the time longer and longer. The reliability can be calculated and also the operating life under the given demand for a mechanism can be estimated by using the established model in reverse.

    Abstract ( 3830 )   Save
    The effect of face abrasive wear by debris in sealed fluid on sealing performance was studied for Ugrooved mechanical seals typically used in a nuclear primary coolant pump. The results show that the fluid film stiffness and leakage rate would increase at initial stage of face wear, and the leakage rate increases with the number of worn Ugrooves. When sealing dam is penetrated by debris, fluid film stiffness will drop abruptly and leakage will increase sharply. Often, there are some worn cracks onto seal faces at the same time in practice, therefore such a seal will break down with great quantity of leakage due to only a depth penetrated scratch or a flaw.

    Active Balancer Based on Planar Linkages
    ZHANG Ying,YAO Yanan,CHA Jianzhong
    2010, 44 (12):  1727-1734. 
    Abstract ( 3196 )   Save
    A concept of independent active balancer for dynamic balancing of planar mechanisms was proposed, the main idea of which is to balance the mechanisms actively by introducing a control system with little changes to their original structures and motions. The proposed balancer was composed of a two DOF linkage and a controllable motor. One of the two input shafts of the linkage acts as the output shaft synchronously, which is connected to the input shaft or the output shaft of the mechanism to be balanced and rotates at the same speed. The other input is driven by the control motor. Because of the special configuration, the balancer can be considered as an intelligent balancing box with one extended shaft outside which can be attached to a machine easily and meet different balancing requirement by adjusting its structural and control parameters. The conceptual design of the balancer was discussed and several feasible schemes based on the planar linkages were obtained. Taking one scheme as an example, the design procedure of the active balancer was described. Finally, numerical examples were given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed balancer. The balancing effects of different schemes of the active balancer and the existing dyad method were compared. The results show that the introduced control system provides the active balancer with more flexibility and better balancing effect than the adding dyad method. For different balancing object, one or more dynamic effects can be reduced by selecting suitable structural parameters of the linkage and speed trajectory of the control motor. Moreover, the deterioration of dynamic performance caused by alterative working conditions can be compensated effectively by the redesign of the control input.

    Abstract ( 3933 )   Save
    This paper analyzed the flux and pressure continuous characteristic of electrohydraulic servomotor airtight cavity. And an improved genetic algorithm involving the mechanism of simulated annealing was introduced to carry out the structure optimization for improving low speed performance. The formula of pretransitional curve of the stator and its angle range was derived, and the optimum dimension of triangle cushioning groove of the valve plate was also obtained. This optimization method perfectly combines the global optimal characteristic of genetic algorithm and the local optimal specialty of simulated annealing algorithm. The algorithm not only avoids premature convergence, but also makes the neighborfunction structure more reasonable. Applying this method to design the servomotor, the continuous rotary electrohydraulic servomotor can track the low speed ramp signal of 0.001 °/s and the tracking precision can reach the boundary of 0.001 °.

    An online methodology of abnormality detection of electrohydraulic servo valve’s working condition was studied. A new feature extraction method based on the valve’s dynamic characteristics was proposed. One class support vector machine (SVM) was adopted to identify the working condition of the valve and the SVM parameters were optimized by crossvalidity estimation learning means. The results indicate that the proposed feature extraction method can effectively extract the fault features of the valve and its abnormal condition can be more effectively identified by taking advantage of oneclass support vector machine’s generalization ability than by the neural network, which lays the foundation for online faults diagnosis of electrohydraulic servo valve.

And the control limits for all decomposition terms were given as the standards of judging the root causes contributing to the outofcontrol signals. Simulation studies for a system consisting of three variables were carried out to demonstrate that the proposed method is reasonable.

    Abstract ( 3678 )   Save
    The relationship between the ultrasonic grinding surface quality of Al2O3-ZrO2 nano-composite ceramics and the ultrasonic grinding frequencies was researched. Based on the ultrasonic singlepoint scratching test, the change of material removing style illustrates the improvement of surface quality with ultrasonic grinding. The reduced equivalent rigidity of the surface under ultrasonic vibration leads to a removal mode transition from brittle to ductile. And this phenomenon becomes more evident as frequency increases. The research shows that, the surface quality with ultrasonic vibration is superior to that without ultrasonic vibration, and the increasing frequency can contribute to the improvement of the surface quality.

    Abstract ( 3588 )   Save
    The purpose of this paper is to investigate how the category of the comodules of the coring can be made into a braided monoidal category. Firstly, the conditions making the category into a monoidal category are obtained by using the fact that if C is a coring, then C can be made into a Ccomodule. The conditions are that the algebra and coring in question are bialgebra and biring,with some extra compatibility relations. Then, given a monodial category of comodules of the coring, the braiding is constructed by means of a twisted convolution invertible map and the sufficient and necessary conditions making the category form into a braided monoidal category are obtained. The category of entwined modules is contained in the category of the comodules of the coring. Lastly, the construction can be applied to the category of entwined modules as an example.
