Materials and Methods: 44 patients with 62 hepatomas were treated from March 4, 2004 to May 24, 2009. Ablation with a gradual ramp-up of power was performed using a single needle with an internally cooled electrode. Evaluation for tumor response was performed with 4-phase CT at 24 hours and 3 months. All immediate and follow-up complications were recorded. Results: Complete tumor ablation was achieved in 86%. The ablation volumes were 16 cm3 +/- 12 cm3 for tumors 3 +/- 12 cm3 for tumors 2 - 3 cm. Out of 68 total ablation sessions, there were 2 major complications (pleural effusions) requiring intervention (thoracentesis). Conclusion: Compared with existing techniques using a constant full-power setting, ablation of small hepatomas using an algorithm of gradual ramp-up of power provides comparable rate of complete tumor ablation, adequate ablation volumes, and a low rate of complications that require treatment.展开更多

The results show that [DEA(16) is secure against differential cryptanalysis attack after 5 rounds while IDEA(8) needs 7 rounds for the same level of security. The transition matrix for IDEA(16) and its eigenvalue of second largest magnitude are computed. The storage method for the transition matrix has been optimized to speed up file I/O. The emphasis of the work lies in finding out an effective way of computing the eigenvalue of the matrix. To lower time complexity, three mature algorithms in finding eigenvalues are compared from one another and subspace iteration algorithm is employed to compute the eigenvalue of second largest module, with a precision of 0.001.展开更多

An adaptive algorithm with periodic disturbance frequency identification on line is applied and the internal model controller parameters are adjusted to eliminate disturbance. Then the convergence of this algorithm and the stability of the system are proved by the averaging method. Simulation results verify the proposed scheme can eliminate periodic disturbance and improve the test precision for PIGA effectively.展开更多

The...A frequency domain method for estimating wind-induced fluctuating internal pressure of structure with single windward opening is presented in this paper and wind tunnel tests were carried out to verify the theory. The nonlinear differential equation of internal pressure dynamics and iteration algorithm were applied to calculate fluctuating internal pressure and time domain analysis was used to verify the accuracy of the proposed method. A simplified estimation method is also provided and its scope of application is clarified. The mechanism of internal pressure fluctuation is obtained by using the proposed method in the frequency domain and a new equivalent opening ratio is defined to evaluate internal pressure fluctuation. A series of low-rise building models with various openings and internal volumes were designed for wind tunnel tests with results agreeing well with analytical results. It is shown that the proposed frequency domain method based on Gaussian distribution of internal pressure fluctuations can be applied to predict the RMS internal pressure coefficient with adequate accuracy for any opening dimensions, while the simplified method can only be used for structure with single dominant opening. Helmholtz resonance is likely to occur when the equivalent opening ratio is adequately high, and controlling individual opening dimension is an effective strategy for avoiding Helmholtz resonance in engineering.展开更多

The most important aspects of design building blocks of adaptive internal model control are the choice of architectures, learning algorithms, and examples of learning. The choice of parametric adaptation algorithm for updating elements of the conventional adaptive internal model control shows limitations. To overcome these limitations, we chose the architectures of neural networks deduced from the conventional models and the Levenberg-marquardt during the adjustment of system parameters of the adaptive neural internal model control. The results of this latest control showed compensation for disturbance, good trajectory tracking performance and system stability.展开更多

These algo-rithms are being compared on simplicity, stability and robustness. Goal for the controller is to move the load on a gantry crane to a new position with minimal overshoot of the load and maximal speed of the load. An-other goal is to provide an insight in the behaviour of the possible controllers. In this article a parallel P-controller, cascade P-controller, fuzzy controller and an internal model controller are used. To be able to validate and design the controllers a model is derived from the gantry crane. The controllers and the model are being implemented in Matlab Simulink. Finally the controllers are validated and tuned in Labview on a laboratory gantry scrane scale model. Main conclusion is that all presented controllers can be used as a con-troller for the gantry crane system but the fuzzy controller is showing the best performance.展开更多
