WIND, JThe Authoris a citizen of the Netherlands. He studied Aircraft Engineering and Mechanical Engineering at the Delft Institute of Technology from which he received his MS degree in 1955. He began his career as a Research Engineer in the field of Nuclear Engineering
employed by VMF—Stork and he holds several U.S. Patents relating to ultra—centrifuges for the separation of Uranium. He was next engaged. in design of control gear for radio astronomy aerials and operating gear for bridges and huge floodgates in the Scheldt and Rhine Delta. Later he became involved in the control of diesel engines and controllable pitch propellers and in 1967 joined LIPS Propeller Works where he developed CP propeller mechanisms solved the problem of high—pressure oil supply to large diameter marine shafts and made an improvement for high—speed propeller nozzles. As Head of the Design Department he was responsible for the design of large controllable pitch propellers for fast Container Ships and Naval Ships with gas turbine drive. Mr. Wind has authored several technical publications among which are “Controllable Pitch Propellers. Their Principles and Mechanisms” and “The Development of CP Propeller Systems.” At the present time he is a Corporate Engineering Consultant to the Propeller Division of LIPS B. V.

In a CP propeller the size of the hub largely influences the reliability of the system in operation. Accurate choice of the hub—size provides the best means to prevent the system from structural propeller failures and is therefore the best method to ensure reliability and optimized performance. Recent failures of high—power CP propellers, of which one Navy propeller had a serious mission failure, could have been avoided if a larger hub had been adopted. The paper contains two tools, available also to nonspecialists. One allows clear recognition of the technical degree of difficulty of all types of propellers and the other is a scale to determine the degree of load of each CP propeller hub. Information is given concerning the influence of the hub/diameter ratio on the hydrodynamic performance.
The paper provides a dynamic analysis of a COGAS Propulsion Plant, including mathematical modeling and simulation, and concludes with the results of a COGAS simulation which indicates encouraging conclusions regarding...

MARCY, HTThe Honorable H. Tyler (“Ty”) Marcy:was born in 1918 in Rochester
New York but moved to Baltimore Maryland at an early age where he attended public schools. He is a graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology from which he received both his BS and MS degrees in Electrical Engineering. Subsequent to receiving the latter degree in 1941 he designed and developed gun control systems in the MIT Servomechanism Laboratory until 1946 when he became Associate Director Special Projects Department M. W. Kellogg Company and worked on rocket engine development missile controls and analog air defense systems. In 1951
Mr. Marcy left Kellogg Company to join the IBM Corporation where he remained until 1972 and was employed in various engineering and managerial positions. At IBM his first assignment concerned the bomb/navigational system for the B-52 aircraft. He then moved into commercial development of data processing machines and peripheral devices subsequently being placed in a series of technical management positions which included Assistant Manager of Product Development Corporate Headquarters New York (1956) Manager
Poughkeepsie N.Y. Laboratory (1957) Vice-President
General Products Division (1962) Vice-President
Systems Development Division (1965) and Director of Technology
Corporate Headquarters Armonk N. Y. (1968). His last position was held until 1972 when he left IBM to do private consulting work in engineering management technology and program review. In October 1974 he was appointed by the President to his present office as Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Research and Development. Mr. Marcy has been a member of the Instrument Society of America since 1963
serving as its President from 1971 until 1974. In 1967 he became a Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) for his leadership in feedback control and for his significant contribution to the management of technical enterprise. In addition to these professional organizations he is also a member of the

Parallel-logic programming of analogue computers often presents difficulties to all but the most experienced users. The paper describes an inexpensive method of simplifying the control of iterative problem solutions run on parallel-logic analogue computers by employing a special-purpose sequence controller. The controller stores up to 16 64 bit words, which are transferred in sequence to an output buffer. Most of the bits within each word form the control signals for analogue components. This is mechanised by connections from the controller-output buffer to the analogue-component control lines via an existing parallel-logic patchboard. Conditional (i.e. comparator-controlled) operations and manual control (using logic switches) are possible with only a limited number of analogue components. A compiler for a digital computer enables the user to define the modes and states of analogue components as a sequence of events in time. These events, and the periods of time between them, may be defined by a list of digital-program-source statements, or, conversationally, by replying to questions typed at the user's teleprinter. Either form of input is compiled into the sequence-controller machine code, which is then loaded into the controller memory ready for execution.

The problem of finding a nonrandomised control law that minimises an instantaneous index for a nonlinear discrete-time stochastic system is considered. Both the state and observation equations are taken to be nonlinear, and the optimisation index is chosen to be the variance of the control error. Some of the recent results in nonlinear estimation theory are utilised for deriving approximations to the optimal-control law. The results are illustrated with the help of numerical examples.
