In Situ ceramic particle-reinforced aluminum matrix composites fabricated by reaction pressing in the TiO2 (Ti)-Al-B (B2O3) systems

Particulate TiB₂ reinforced aluminum-based metal matrix composites (MMCs) were successfully fabricated by means of the reaction processing method. TiB₂ particulates were formed in situ through the reaction of Ti and B in Ti-Al-B, TiO₂ and B in TiO₂-Al-B, and TiO₂ and B₂O₃ in TiO₂-Al-B₂O₃ systems. The results showed that in situ TiB₂ particulates formed in the Ti-Al-B system had a size of 5 μm and they exhibited block and rodlike structures. Moreover, coarse Al₃Ti blocks several tens of micrometers in size were also formed simultaneously. On the other hand, equiaxed Al₂O₃ and TiB₂ particulates with a size of less than 2 μm were formed in situ in the TiO₂-Al-B and TiO₂-Al-B₂O₃ systems. The Al₃Ti phase was completely eliminated in the TiO₂-Al-B system with increasing B content. Tensile tests revealed that the Al₂O₃ · TiB₂/Al composite fabricated from the TiO₂-Al-B system exhibits excellent mechanical properties. The yield strength of the Al₂O₃ · TiB₂/Al composite appeared to increase with increasing TiB₂ content. The yield strength of the Al₂O₃ · TiB₂/Al composite could be further increased by introducing CuO into the TiO₂-Al-B system. Such an increment in mechanical strength arose from the strengthening effect caused by the Al₂Cu precipitates. The incorporation of CuO had no effect on the in situ reaction process of the TiO₂-Al-B system. Finally, the effect of SiC addition on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the composites fabricated from the TiO₂-Al-B and TiO₂-Al-B-CuO systems was also investigated.

Control of peak sidelobe level in adaptive arrays

Adaptive beamforming techniques are now widely used to reject interference (jammer/clutter) signals in radar, communication, and sonar applications. In adaptive arrays using the sample matrix inversion (SMI) algorithm, inadequate estimation of the covariance matrix results in adaptive antenna patterns with high sidelobes and distorted mainbeams. In this paper, a method is proposed to precisely control the peak (rather than average) sidelobe level of adaptive array patterns. The proposed method is also generalized to adaptive array antennas with moderate bandwidth and large random amplitude and phase errors. Theoretical analysis and simulation results are provided to illustrate the performance of the method proposed

Presupposition failure — A comedy of errors

Presuppositions of utterances are the pieces of information you convey with an utterance no matter whether your utterance is true or not. We first study presupposition in a very simple framework of updating propositional information, with examples of how presuppositions of complex propositional updates can be calculated. Next we move on to presuppositions and quantification, in the context of a dynamic version of predicate logic, suitably modified to allow for presupposition failure. In both the propositional and the quantificational case, presupposition failure can be viewed as error abortion of procedures. Thus, a dynamic assertion logic which describes the preconditions for error abortion is the suitable tool for analysing presupposition.     

Learning concepts in parallel based upon the strategy of versionspace

Applies the technique of parallel processing to concept learning. A parallel version-space learning algorithm based upon the principle of divide-and-conquer is proposed. Its time complexity is analyzed to be O(k log₂n) with n processors, where n is the number of given training instances and k is a coefficient depending on the application domains. For a bounded number of processors in real situations, a modified parallel learning algorithm is then proposed. Experimental results are then performed on a real learning problem, showing that our parallel learning algorithm works, and being quite consistent with the results of theoretical analysis. We conclude that when the number of training instances is large, it is worth learning in parallel because of its faster execution     

E-kernel: an embedding kernel on the IBM victor V256 multiprocessorfor program mapping and network reconfiguration

We present the design of E-kernel, an embedding kernel on the Victor V256 message-passing partitionable multiprocessor, developed for the support of program mapping and network reconfiguration. E-kernel supports the embedding of a new network topology onto Victor's 2D mesh and also the embedding of a task graph onto the 2D mesh network or the reconfigured network. In the current implementation, the reconfigured network can be a line or an even-size ring, and the task graphs meshes or tori of a variety of dimensions and shapes or graphs with similar topologies. For application programs having these task graph topologies and that are designed according to the communication model of E-kernel, they can be run without any change on partitions connected by the 2D mesh, line, or ring. Further, E-kernel attempts the communication optimization of these programs on the different networks automatically, thus making both the network topology and the communication optimization attempt completely transparent to the application programs. Many of the embeddings used in E-kernel are optimal or asymptotically optimal (with respect to minimum dilation cost). The implementation of E-kernel translated some of the many theoretical results in graph embeddings into practical tools for program mapping and network reconfiguration in a parallel system. E-kernel is functional on Victor V256. Measurements of E-kernel's performance on V256 are also included
