A smart opportunistic environment is a physical space, which allows the smart physical objects to communicate in the presence of disruption in connectivity. Because, the objects in such an environment are buffer constrained, some of the objects will not participate in data forwarding, when there is scarcity of storage (buffer) space. In this paper, we focus on such selfish behavior of objects triggered by space constraints in a smart opportunistic environment. We propose a novel data forwarding algorithm, selfishness and buffer‐aware routing (SBR), in which a node is chosen as a relay, based on its capability, which is a function of its available buffer space and past encounter history (delivery predictability) with the destination. SBR can efficiently utilize the limited buffer space in a node with a buffer management scheme, WSD. It can also detect space constraint driven selfish behavior of nodes and resolve it using a reputation‐based technique, MSD. We have conducted simulation using both synthetic and real‐world traces for evaluating our proposed SBR algorithm. For analyzing the performance of the algorithm in real‐time, a smart vehicular test‐bed is developed. Simulation results and test‐bed implementation show that our algorithm performs better in terms of higher delivery ratio, lower overhead ratio, and lower delivery delay, compared with existing opportunistic data forwarding algorithms. 相似文献

The modification by electron beam irradiation was applied to polypropylene (PP). In this process it is tried to add low density polyethylene (LDPE) and talc in the blend to check effects on its rheological property and thermal stability. The decrease in Tm could be the result of chain scissioning which decrease the number of tie molecule in the amorphous regions and consequently weakens the laminar connections. LDPE incorporated sample was comparatively better in shear thinning effect, zero shear viscosity, and thermal stability. Power law index, n, was 0.30 and 0.89 for the modified PP with LDPE and pure PP, respectively. 相似文献

Tropomyosin receptor kinase A (TrkA/NTRK1) is a high-affinity receptor for nerve growth factor (NGF), a potent pain mediator. NGF/TrkA signaling elevates synovial sensory neuronal distributions in the joints and causes osteoarthritis (OA) pain. We investigated the mechanisms of pain transmission as to whether peripheral sensory neurons are linked to the cellular plasticity in the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) and are critical for OA hyperalgesia. Sensory neuron-specific deletion of TrkA was achieved by tamoxifen injection in 4-week-old TrkAfl/fl;NaV1.8CreERT2 (Ntrk1 fl/fl;Scn10aCreERT2) mice. OA was induced by partial medial meniscectomy (PMM) in 12-week-old mice, and OA-pain-related behavior was analyzed for 12 weeks followed by comprehensive histopathological examinations. OA-associated joint pain was markedly improved without cartilage protection in sensory-neuron-specific conditional TrkA knock-out (cKO) mice. Alleviated hyperalgesia was associated with suppression of the NGF/TrkA pathway and reduced angiogenesis in fibroblast-like synovial cells. Elevated pain transmitters in the DRG of OA-induced mice were significantly diminished in sensory-neuron-specific TrkA cKO and global TrkA cKO mice. Spinal glial activity and brain-derived neurotropic factor (BDNF) were significantly increased in OA-induced mice but were substantially eliminated by sensory-neuron-specific deletion. Our results suggest that augmentation of NGF/TrkA signaling in the joint synovium and the peripheral sensory neurons facilitate pro-nociception and centralized pain sensitization. 相似文献

We have studied the substitution of antimony by tin and tellurium in n-type skutterudites CoSb2.8Sn x Te0.2?x . The samples were made by ball milling ingots and hot pressing the ball-milled nanopowder. Rather than filling the cage of the structure, we aimed to use disorder in pnictogen rings by elemental substitution of Sb by Sn and Te. In skutterudite CoSb3, the dominant heat-carrying phonons are associated with the vibrational modes of the Sb-rings; disorder in the rings can be an effective way to suppress the thermal transport. By suitably tuning the contents of Sn and Te in the skutterudites, we have suppressed the thermal conductivity and achieved a power factor of ~42 μW cm?1 K?2 at 530°C. A peak thermoelectric figure of merit (ZT) reaches ~1.1 at 530°C for CoSb2.8Sn0.005Te0.195. This ZT value is comparable with that of some of the single-filled skutterudites. 相似文献

Silver (Ag) complexes of drugs and their nanosystems have great potential as antibacterials. Recently, an Ag complex of furosemide (Ag–FSE) has shown to be a promising antimicrobial. However, poor solubility of Ag–FSE could hamper its introduction into clinics. Therefore, the authors developed a nanosuspension of Ag–FSE (Ag–FSE_NS) for its solubility and antibacterial activity enhancement. The aim of this study was to introduce a novel nanoantibiotic with enhanced antibacterial efficacy. Ag–FSE_NS was prepared by precipitation–ultrasonication technique. Size, polydispersity index (PI) and zeta potential (ZP) of prepared Ag–FSE_NS were measured by dynamic light scattering, whereas surface morphology was determined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). In vitro antibacterial activity was evaluated against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa using broth microdilution method. Size, PI and ZP of optimised Ag–FSE_NS1 were 191.2 ± 19.34 nm, 0.465 ± 0.059 and −55.7 ± 8.18 mV, respectively. SEM revealed that Ag–FSE_NS1 particles were rod or needle‐like with smooth surfaces. Saturation solubility of Ag–FSE in NS increased eight‐fold than pure Ag–FSE. Ag–FSE_NS1 exhibited two‐fold and eight‐fold enhancements in activity against E. coli and S. aureus, respectively. The results obtained showed that developed Ag–FSE_NS1 holds a promise as a topical antibacterial.Inspec keywords: nanomedicine, nanofabrication, light scattering, surface morphology, silver, particle size, solubility, suspensions, scanning electron microscopy, electrokinetic effects, drugs, biomedical materials, antibacterial activity, microorganisms, nanoparticles, drug delivery systems, transmission electron microscopyOther keywords: saturation solubility, topical antibacterial, size 171.86 nm to 210.54 nm, voltage ‐47.52 mV to ‐63.88 mV, Ag, broth microdilution method, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, SEM, scanning electron microscopy, surface morphology, dynamic light scattering, particle size, polydispersity index, precipitation–ultrasonication technique, nanoantibiotic, nanosuspension, furosemide, nanosystems, drugs, Ag–FSE_NS preparation, in vitro antibacterial activity, pure Ag–FSE, Ag–FSE_NS1 particles, optimised Ag–FSE_NS1, zeta potential, enhanced antibacterial efficacy, antibacterials 相似文献

A multi-scale, mechanistic model is developed to describe and predict the dwell-fatigue crack growth rate in the P/M disk superalloy, ME3, as a function of creep–environment interactions. In this model, the time-dependent cracking mechanisms involve grain boundary sliding and dynamic embrittlement, which are identified by the grain boundary activation energy, as well as, the slip/grain boundary interactions in both air and vacuum. Modeling of the damage events is achieved by adapting a cohesive zone (CZ) approach which considers the deformation behavior of the grain boundary element at the crack tip. The deformation response of this element is controlled by the surrounding continuum in both far field (internal state variable model) and near field (crystal plasticity model) regions and the intrinsic grain boundary viscosity which defines the mobility of the element by scaling up the motion of dislocations into a mesoscopic scale. This intergranular cracking process is characterized by the rate at which the grain boundary sliding reaches a critical displacement. A damage criterion is introduced by considering the grain boundary mobility limit in the tangential direction leading to strain incompatibility and failure. Results of simulated intergranular crack growth rate using the CZ model are generated for temperatures ranging from 923 K to 1073 K (650 °C to 800 °C), in both air and vacuum. These results are compared with those experimentally obtained and analysis of the model sensitivity to loading conditions, particularly temperature and oxygen partial pressure, are presented. 相似文献

Blends of polypropylene (PP)/linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) were prepared by melt mixing in twin screw extruder at 190 °C. Polyfunctional monomer TMPTMA (trimethylolpropane-trimetacrylate) was added to the mixture as a crosslinking co-agent to improve the crosslinking or branching efficiency of the olefins during irradiation. The effect of LLDPE on the crosslinking or branching effectiveness and physical properties of PP was investigated in conjunction with the monomer content of LLDPE in the blends. Thermal stability, rheological properties and electron beam irradiation effectiveness of PP in presence of LLDPE were analyzed by DSC, TGA and RDS. Solution gel analysis and the presence of ?C=O in FT-IR test supported some crosslinking or branching that occurred after irradiation. Certain decrease in melting temperature (T m ) that was noticed after irradiation could have been the result of chain scissioning, which decreases the number of tie molecules in the amorphous region and consequently weakens the lamellar connections. Shear thinning effect and zero shear viscosity were improved by irradiation in the PE incorporated samples. 相似文献

Micro-strip metal-semiconductor-metal detectors for thermal neutron sensing were fabricated from hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) epilayers synthesized by metal organic chemical vapor deposition. Experimental measurements indicated that the thermal neutron absorption coefficient and length of natural hBN epilayers are about 0.00361 μm−1 and 277 μm, respectively. A continuous irradiation with a thermal neutron beam generated an appreciable current response in hBN detectors, corresponding to an effective conversion efficiency approaching ∼80% for absorbed neutrons. Our results indicate that hBN semiconductors would enable the development of essentially ideal solid-state thermal neutron detectors in which both neutron capture and carrier collection are accomplished in the same hBN semiconductor. These solid-state detectors have the potential to replace 3He gas detectors, which faces the very serious issue of 3He gas shortage. 相似文献
