The effects of filler content on cure and mechanical properties of dichlorocarbene modified styrene butadiene rubber/carbon black composites

A study has been carried out on the curing characteristics and mechanical properties of carbon black filled dichlorocarbene modified styrene butadiene rubber (DCSBR). Processing characteristics such as optimum cure time and maximum torque increases with increasing of the concentration of carbon black in DCSBR whereas scorch time decreases. The mechanical properties and resistance of the vulcanizate towards thermal, flame and oil resistance have been carried out. Variation of bound rubber content of carbon black filled DCSBR and the influence of the extracting temperature on the bound rubber content was investigated and its activation energy was calculated from the Arrhenius plot. The reinforcing nature of the filler was assessed from stress strain and swelling data. The enhancement in mechanical properties was supported by data on the increased content of crosslink density in these samples obtained from swelling and stress strain analysis. The results of the studies indicate that carbon black can be used as a good reinforcing filler for DCSBR.     

An efficient procedure for finding best compromise solutions to the multi-objective assignment problem

In this paper, we consider the problem of determining a best compromise solution for the multi-objective assignment problem. Such a solution minimizes a scalarizing function, such as the weighted Tchebychev norm or reference point achievement functions. To solve this problem, we resort to a ranking (or k-best) algorithm which enumerates feasible solutions according to an appropriate weighted sum until a condition, ensuring that an optimal solution has been found, is met. The ranking algorithm is based on a branch and bound scheme. We study how to implement efficiently this procedure by considering different algorithmic variants within the procedure: choice of the weighted sum, branching and bounding schemes. We present an experimental analysis that enables us to point out the best variants, and we provide experimental results showing the remarkable efficiency of the procedure, even for large size instances.     

多天线时变信道频偏的估计下界

针对多天线信道频偏参数的随机时变特点,建立参数化的观测模型,根据时变参数估计的克拉美-罗下界求取原理,在非线性的观测模型和序贯的观测值下,利用参数真值推导频偏估计的克拉美-罗下界。由于特征参数的真值不可知,因此将观测模型在估计值处进行二阶泰勒级数展开,通过参数估计值获得频偏参数估计的近似下界。仿真结果表明,基于参数真值和估计值的频偏估计下界具有渐近收敛性,且随信噪比和观测值个数的增加均能达到稳态。     

基于概率-模糊-区间混合模型和改进分枝限界法的重力坝可靠性分析方法

借助传统概率模型评估重力坝服役安全需明确参数的概率分布,而非概率区间模型所得结论难以准确度量重力坝服役可靠程度,因此,本文提出了基于概率-模糊-区间混合模型和改进分枝限界法的重力坝可靠性分析方法。基于原型、室内试验成果与安全监测资料,结合参数时变模型和区间反演分析方法,建立综合考虑随机变量、模糊变量和区间变量的重力坝可靠性分析混合模型;利用信息熵法和Karush-Kuhn-Tucker(KKT)最优化条件解耦混合模型,通过基于当量正态化法的验算点法(JC法)计算可靠指标;对传统分枝限界法加以改进搜索主要失效模式,采用Ditlevsen窄界限法计算体系可靠度,综合评估重力坝整体服役安全。工程实例分析表明,本文方法可求解多种不确定因素共存的重力坝可靠性分析问题,适用范围较广;计算结果仍为概率可靠指标,表明在符合重力坝运行规律的前提下所选定坝段存在滑动失稳的可能性,与大坝的实际服役情况相吻合。此外,建立的可靠性分析混合模型,经一定的改进和拓展后,亦可用于其他结构工程的可靠性分析。     

Enhanced utilization bound of Rate-Monotonic scheduling in Controller Area Networks

When priorities to message streams are assigned using Rate Monotonic (RM) for a Controller Area Network (CAN), the utilization bound is known to be about 25% for CAN 2.0A and 29% for CAN 2.0B. In this letter, we present a higher utilization bound than the existing ones with a reasonable constraint. The new utilization bounds are approximately 34% for CAN 2.0A and 41% for CAN 2.0B if no single message stream's utilization exceeds 46% or 27% of the total utilization for CAN 2.0A or CAN 2.0B, respectively.
