The dusky rockfishes (Teleostei: Socrpaeniformes) of the North Pacific Ocean: resurrection of Sebastes variabilis (Pallas, 1814) and a redescription of Sebastes ciliatus (Tilesius, 1813)

The dusky rockfish (Sebastes ciliatus) of the North Pacific Ocean has been considered a single variable species with light and dark forms distributed in deep and shallow water, respectively. These forms have been subjected to two distinct fisheries separately managed by federal and state agencies: the light deep form is captured in the offshore trawl fishery; the dark shallow form, in the nearshore jig fishery. The forms have been commonly recognized as the light dusky and dark dusky rockfishes. From morphological evidence correlated with color differences in some 400 specimens, we recognize two species corresponding with these color forms. Sebastes ciliatus (Tilesius) is the dark shallow-water species found in depths of 5−160 m in the western Aleutian Islands and eastern Bering Sea to British Columbia. The name Sebastes variabilis (Pallas) is resurrected from the synonymy of S. ciliatus to apply to the deeper water species known from depths of 12−675 m and ranging from Hokkaido, Japan, through the Aleutian Islands and eastern Bering Sea, to Oregon. Sebastes ciliatus is uniformly dark blue to black, gradually lightening on the ventrum, with a jet black peritoneum, a smaller symphyseal knob, and fewer lateral-line pores compared to S. variabilis. Sebastes variabilis is more variable in body color, ranging from light yellow to a more usual tan or greenish brown to a nearly uniform dark dorsum, but it invariably has a distinct red to white ventrum. Synonymies, diagnoses, descriptions, and geographic distributions are provided for each species.

基于Stewart平台六维力传感器的分区静态标定方法

基于Stewart平台的六维力传感器具有结构紧凑、刚度大、量程宽等特点,它在工业机器人、空间站对接等领域具有广泛的应用前景。好的标定方法是正确使用传感器的基础。由于基于Stewart平台的六维力传感器是一个复杂的非线性系统,所以采用常规的线性标定方法必将带来较大的标定误差从而影响其使用性能。标定的实质是,由测量值空间到理论值空间的映射函数的确定过程。由函数逼近理论可知,当只在已知点集上给出函数值时,可用多项式或分段多项式等较简单函数逼近待定函数。基于上述思想,本文将整个测量空间划分为若干连续的子测量空间,再对每个子空间进行线性标定,从而提高了整个测量系统的标定精度。实验分析结果表明了该标定方法有效。
