Novel electrospun polymer electrolytes incorporated with Keggin‐type hetero polyoxometalate fillers as solvent‐free electrolytes for lithium ion batteries

In this study, solvent‐free nanofibrous electrolytes were fabricated through an electrospinning method. Polyethylene oxide (PEO), lithium perchlorate and ethylene carbonate were used as polymer matrix, salt and plasticizer respectively in the electrolyte structures. Keggin‐type hetero polyoxometalate (Cu‐POM@Ru‐rGO, Ni‐POM@Ru‐rGO and Co‐POM@Ru‐rGO (POM, polyoxometalate; rGO, reduced graphene oxide)) nanoparticles were synthesized and inserted into the PEO‐based nanofibrous electrolytes. TEM and SEM analyses were carried out for further evaluation of the synthesized filler structures and the electrospun nanofibre morphologies. The fractions of free ions and crystalline phases of the as‐spun electrolytes were estimated by obtaining Fourier transform infrared and XRD spectra, respectively. The results showed a significant improvement in the ionic conductivity of the nanofibrous electrolytes by increasing filler concentrations. The highest ionic conductivity of 0.28 mS cm^?1 was obtained by the introduction of 0.49 wt% Co‐POM@Ru‐rGO into the electrospun electrolyte at ambient temperature. Compared with solution‐cast polymeric electrolytes, the electrospun electrolytes present superior ionic conductivity. Moreover, the cycle stability of the as‐spun electrolytes was clearly improved by the addition of fillers. Furthermore, the mechanical strength was enhanced with the insertion of 0.07 wt% fillers to the electrospun electrolytes. The results implied that the prepared nanofibres are good candidates as solvent‐free electrolytes for lithium ion batteries. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry     

Ground bounce in digital VLSI circuits

This paper is concerned with the analysis and optimization of the ground bounce in digital CMOS circuits. First, an analytical method for calculating the ground bounce is presented. The proposed method relies on accurate models of the short-channel MOS device and the chip-package interface parasitics. Next the effect of ground bounce on the propagation delay and the optimum tapering factor of a multistage buffer is discussed and a mathematical relationship for total propagation delay in the presence of the ground bounce is obtained. Effect of an on-chip decoupling capacitor on the ground bounce waveform and circuit speed is analyzed next and a closed form expression for the peak value of the differential-mode component of the ground bounce in terms of the on-chip decoupling capacitor is provided. Finally, a design methodology for controlling the switching times of the output drivers to minimize the ground bounce is presented.     

Analysis of the PLL jitter due to power/ground and substrate noise

Phase-locked loops (PLL) in radio-frequency (RF) and mixed analog-digital integrated circuits (ICs) experience substrate coupling due to the simultaneous circuit switching and power/ground (P/G) noise which translate to a timing jitter. In this paper. an analysis of the PLL timing jitter due to substrate noise resulting from P/G noise and large-signal switching is presented. A general comprehensive stochastic model of the substrate and P/G noise sources in very large-scale integration (VLSI) circuits is proposed. This is followed by calculation of the phase noise of the constituent voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) in terms of the statistical properties of substrate and P/G noise. The PLL timing jitter is then predicted in response to the VCO phase noise. Our mathematical method is utilized to study the jitter-induced P/G noise in a CMOS PLL, which is designed and simulated in a 0.25-/spl mu/m standard CMOS process. A comparison between the results obtained by our mathematical model and those obtained by HSPICE simulation prove the accuracy of the predicted model.

Robust and stable flow shop scheduling with unexpected arrivals of new jobs and uncertain processing times

In real scheduling problems, some disruptions and unexpected events may occur. These disruptions cause the initial schedule to quickly become infeasible and non-optimal. In this situation, an appropriate rescheduling method should be used. In this paper, a new approach has been proposed to achieve stable and robust schedule despite uncertain processing times and unexpected arrivals of new jobs. This approach is a proactive–reactive method which uses a two-step procedure. In the first step an initial robust solution is produced proactively against uncertain processing times using robust optimization approach. This initial robust solution is more insensitive against the fluctuations of processing times in future. In the next step, when an unexpected disruption occurs, an appropriate reactive method is adopted to deal with this unexpected event. In fact, in the second step, the reactive approach determines the best modified sequence after any unexpected disruption based on the classical objective and performance measures. The robustness measure is implemented in the reactive approach to increase the performance of the real schedule after disruption. Computational results indicate that this method produces better solutions in comparison with four classical heuristic approaches according to effectiveness and performance of solutions.

一种多线程软件并发漏洞检测方法

多线程软件由于进程间共享使用资源而极易发生死锁这一严重的并发漏洞.通过Petri网模型对多线程软件进行建模,并利用混合整数规划技术检测其漏洞.目前,使用互斥锁的多线程软件可通过Gadara网建模和检测.而使用信号量的多线程软件,虽可用S*PR网建模,但是尚未有理论支撑混合整数规划用于其漏洞检测.定义了S*PR网的一个子类——SEM-S*PR网,它允许资源库所初始标志大于1且分支可对称地使用资源,进而可建模一类使用信号量的多线程软件.依据结构特点,证明了该网保持活性的充分必要条件是网运行过程中所有信标始终非空.此结论是混合整数规划用于SEM-S*PR网建模的多线程软件的并发漏洞检测的理论基础.
