在几何结构设计中采用遗传算法优化横向磁场永磁电机的转矩波形

在制造横向磁场永磁电机（TFPM）电机之前，应确定最大转矩的波形。通过调整TFPM电机的各项几何参数，可以使电机达到其最大转矩。一种基于人工智能的最优化方法可以使得每个极间隔都获得理想的转矩波形。本文给出了一种用于优化TFPM几何参数的遗传算法，该算法同样适用于其它结构的电机。     

Cross-layer design of ad hoc networks for real-time video streaming

Cross-layer design breaks away from traditional network design where each layer of the protocol stack operates independently. We explore the potential synergies of exchanging information between different layers to support real-time video streaming. In this new approach information is exchanged between different layers of the protocol stack, and end-to-end performance is optimized by adapting to this information at each protocol layer. We discuss key parameters used in the cross-layer information exchange along with the associated cross-layer adaptation. Substantial performance gains through this cross-layer design are demonstrated for video streaming.     

Effect of silicon spacer thickness on the electroluminescence of multilayer structures with self-assembled Ge(Si)/Si(001) islands

The results of investigation of the electroluminescence of multilayer p-i-n structures with Ge(Si)/Si(001) self-assembled islands are presented. The nonmonotonic dependence of the room-temperature intensity of the electroluminescence signal from islands on the Si spacer thickness is revealed. The highest electroluminescence signal intensity is observed for structures with a Si spacer thickness of 15?C20 nm. The significant decrease detected in the electroluminescence signal from the islands in structures with thick Si spacers (>20 nm) is explained by the formation of defect regions in them. The observed decrease in the electroluminescence signal in structures with thin Si layers is associated with a decrease in the Ge fraction in the islands in these structures, which is caused by enhanced Si diffusion into islands with increasing elastic strains in the structure.     

Restoration of cardio-circulatory regulation by rate-adaptivepacemaker systems: the bioengineering view of a clinical problem

In the past, the development of rate-adaptive (sensor-controlled) pacemaker systems seems to have been determined primarily by the availability, compatibility and other properties of the technical sensor. This paper, however, focuses on the system-physiological aspect in an attempt to answer the question to what extent physiological cardiovascular control is restored by the pacemaker system. This is a question which should be asked before attempting to design a sensor-controlled system and especially before designing multisensor systems with infinite combinations. Four categories are defined: direct bridging ("shunting"), open loop systems, closed systems using cardiorespiratory or metabolic coupling and those using cardiac signals. Further subdivisions are shown. From the bioengineering as well as from the physiological viewpoint a system should preferably not combine sensors from one and the same of these categories. At present direct bridging is available only for the atrioventricular (AV)-block, so that for sick-sinus-syndrome (SSS) patients feedback control via cardiac signals ("inotropic" pacemaker) comes nearest the goal without, however, ideally bridging the gap. Open-loop systems should no longer be developed as single-sensor systems. A well developed activity sensor, however, which quickly pinpoints the most prominent stressor of cardiovascular control is best suited to complement another sensory system achieving closed-loop control. New and promising concepts orientated toward direct bridging are the analysis of monophasic action potentials and the "dromotropic" concept, both of which seek direct correlation with the "chronotropic" information not available in SSS patients.     

Fractal antenna engineering: the theory and design of fractalantenna arrays

A fractal is a recursively generated object having a fractional dimension. Many objects, including antennas, can be designed using the recursive nature of a fractal. In this article, we provide a comprehensive overview of recent developments in the field of fractal antenna engineering, with particular emphasis placed on the theory and design of fractal arrays. We introduce some important properties of fractal arrays, including the frequency-independent multi-band characteristics, schemes for realizing low-sidelobe designs, systematic approaches to thinning, and the ability to develop rapid beam-forming algorithms by exploiting the recursive nature of fractals. These arrays have fractional dimensions that are found from the generating subarray used to recursively create the fractal array. Our research is in its infancy, but the results so far are intriguing, and may have future practical applications     

An on-chip electroosmotic micropump with a light- addressable potentiometric sensor

An on-chip electroosmotic (EO) micropump (EOP) was integrated in a microfluidic channel combined with a light-addressable potentiometric sensor (LAPS). The movement of EO flow towards right and left directions can be clearly observed in the microfluidic channel. The characteristics of photocurrent-time and photocurrent-bias voltage are obtained when buffer solution passes through the sensing region. The results demonstrate that the combination of an on-chip EOP with an LAPS is feasible.
