The microstructures of transversal and longitudinal sections were exposed by chemical etching and observed by scanning electron microscopy （SEM）. The mechanical properties were examined by room-temperature uniaxial compression test. The results show that both plasticity and fracture mode are significantly affected by the network structure and the alteration occurs when the size of the network structure reaches up to a critical value. When the cell size （dc） of the network structure is ~3μm, Zr-based BMGs characterize in plasticity that decreases with increasingdc. The fracture mode gradually transforms from single 45° shear fracture to double 45° shear fracture and then cleavage fracture with increasingdc. In addition, the mechanisms of the transition of the plasticity and the fracture mode for these Zr-based BMGs are also discussed.展开更多

The immersing and sintering processes were each performed twice for fabricating a high-porosity and super-strong skeleton. The aluminum magnesium matrix composites reinforced with three-dimensional network structure were prepared using the infiltration technique by pressure assisting and vacuum driving. Light interfacial reactions have played a profitable role in most of the ceramic-metal systems. The metal matrix composites interpenetrated with the ceramic phase have a higher wear resistance than the metal matrix phase. The volume fraction of ceramic reinforcement has a significant effect on the abrasive wear, and the wear rate can be decreased with the increase of the volume fraction of reinforcement.展开更多

In this work, we introduce a quantity to characterize the correlation between the structural and the dynamical properties and investigate the impacts of the correlation on the synchronization transition in the Kuramoto model on scale-free networks. We find that the synchronization transition may be either a continuous one or a discontinuous one depending on the correlation and that strong correlation always postpones both the transitions from the incoherent state to a synchronous one and the transition from a synchronous state to the incoherent one. We find that the dependence of the synchronization transition on the correlation is also valid for other types of distributions of natural frequency.展开更多

The increasing ratio of the general efficiency of a small-world network relative to that of the corresponding regular network is used to measure the small-world effect quantitatively. The more considerable the small-world effect, the higher the general efficiency of a network with a certain cost is. It is shown that the small-world effect increases monotonically with the increase of the vertex number. The optimal rewiring probability to induce the best small-world effect is approximately 0.02 and the optimal average connection probability decreases monotonically with the increase of the vertex number. Therefore, the optimal network structure to induce the maximal small-world effect is the structure with the large vertex number （〉 500）, the small rewiring probability （≈0.02） and the small average connection probability （〈 0.1）. Many previous research results support our results.展开更多

Data collected from the sensor nodes are usually highly correlated, and hence energy saving using in-network data fusion becomes possible. A traditional data fusion scheme starts with dividing the network into clusters, followed by electing a sensor node as cluster head in each cluster. A cluster head is responsible for collecting data from all its cluster members, performing data fusion on these data and transmitting the fused data to the base station. Assuming that a sensor node is only capable of handling a single node-to-node transmission at a time and each transmission takes T time-slots, a cluster head with n cluster members will take at least nT time-slots to collect data from all its cluster members. In this paper, a tree-based network structure and its formation algorithms are proposed. Simulation results show that the proposed network structure can greatly reduce the delay in data collection.展开更多

Castings after annealing and normalizing were analyzed by microscope and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The network formed during annealing was proved by TEM to be pearlite with very fine slices, while that formed during normalizing was proved by TEM and micro-hardness to be martensite or bainite. A theoretical analysis together with experimental studies has proved that the pearlite network is caused by carbon content increase in the interdendritic regions to which carbon atoms transfered from dendritic arms due to lower manganese content there during annealing, while the martensite or bainite network results from the higher hardenability of interdendritic regions where manganese content is higher. Experiments reveal that higher heating temperature or longer heating time enlarges the network size due to manganese homogenization. The network structure has a strengthening function like reinforcing rib, and the smaller the network size, the greater its strengthening capability.展开更多

文摘Grasping the spatial correlation structure of transportation carbon emission efficiency(TCEE)and its influencing factors is significant for promoting high-quality and coordinated development of the transportation industry and the relevant region.Based on the ideal point cross-efficiency(IPCE)model,the social network analysis method was employed herein to explore the spatial correlation network structure of China’s provincial TCEE and its influencing factors.The results obtained showed the following outcomes.(1)During the study period,China’s provincial TCEE formed a complex and multithreaded network association relationship,but its network association structure was still relatively loose and presented the hierarchical gradient characteristics of dense in the east and sparse in the west.(2)The correlation of China’s TCEE formed a block segmentation based on the regional boundaries,and its factional structure was relatively obvious.The eastern region was closely connected with the central region,and generally connected with the western and northeastern regions.The central region was mainly connected with the eastern and western regions,and relatively less connected with the northeastern region.Besides,the northeastern region was weakly connected with the western region.(3)Shanghai,Beijing,Zhejiang,Guangdong,Jiangsu,Tianjin,and other developed provinces were in the core leading position in the TCEE network,which significantly impacted the spatial correlation of TCEE.However,Heilongjiang,Jilin,Xinjiang,Qinghai,and other remote provinces in the northeast and northwest were at the absolute edge of the network,which weakly impacted the spatial correlation of TCEE.(4)Provincial distance,economic development-level difference,transportation intensity difference,and transportation structure difference had significant negative impacts on the spatial correlation network of China’s provincial TCEE.In contrast,the energy-saving technology level difference had a significant positive impact on it.The regression coefficients of transportation energy structure and environmental regulation differences were positive but insignificant;their response mechanism and effects need to be improved and enhanced.
文摘Core-shell Bi-Bi2 O3/CNT(carbon nanotube) with 3-dimensional neural network structure where Bi-Bi2O3 nanospheres act as cell bodies supported by a 3-dimensional network of CNTs acting as synapses is designed and prepared by simple solvothermal method and subsequent annealing autoreduction treatment,and this structure facilitates the efficient transport of electrons.It can provide two electron transfer paths due to the double contact of Bi2O3 shell with CNT and metal Bi core which enhances the efficiency of the electrochemical reaction.The Bi-Bi2 O3/CNT electrode shows a high gravimetric capacitance of 850 F g-1(1 A g-1),and the specific capacitance of Bi-Bi2O3/CNT can be still 714 F g-1 at 30 A g-1 indicating excellent rate performance.The asymmetric supercapacitor is assembled with Bi-Bi2 O3/CNT as the negative electrode and Ni(OH)2/CNT as the positive electrode,delivering a high energy density of 36.7 Wh kg-1 and a maximum power density of 8000 W kg-1.Therefore,the core-shell Bi-Bi2O3/CNT with 3-dimensional neural network structure as the negative electrode of supercapacitor shows great potential in the field of energy storage in the future.

文摘A recent study has found an explosive synchronization in a Kurammoto model on scale-free networks when the natural frequencies of oscillators are equal to their degrees. In this work, we introduce a quantity to characterize the correlation between the structural and the dynamical properties and investigate the impacts of the correlation on the synchronization transition in the Kuramoto model on scale-free networks. We find that the synchronization transition may be either a continuous one or a discontinuous one depending on the correlation and that strong correlation always postpones both the transitions from the incoherent state to a synchronous one and the transition from a synchronous state to the incoherent one. We find that the dependence of the synchronization transition on the correlation is also valid for other types of distributions of natural frequency.

文摘In this paper, the general efficiency, which is the average of the global efficiency and the local efficiency, is defined to measure the communication efficiency of a network. The increasing ratio of the general efficiency of a small-world network relative to that of the corresponding regular network is used to measure the small-world effect quantitatively. The more considerable the small-world effect, the higher the general efficiency of a network with a certain cost is. It is shown that the small-world effect increases monotonically with the increase of the vertex number. The optimal rewiring probability to induce the best small-world effect is approximately 0.02 and the optimal average connection probability decreases monotonically with the increase of the vertex number. Therefore, the optimal network structure to induce the maximal small-world effect is the structure with the large vertex number （〉 500）, the small rewiring probability （≈0.02） and the small average connection probability （〈 0.1）. Many previous research results support our results.

文摘The construction of high-speed rail(HSR)network has promoted the social-economic ties of cities,accelerated the compression of time and space,and changed the pattern of regional development.In this paper,with the adoption of the operation frequency data of HSR from 12306 website,and based on the HSR connection strength model and social network analysis model,as well as according to the HSR connection strength,HSR network density,centrality,agglomeration subgroup,and other indicators,we analyzed the characteristics of HSR network structure in Northeast China.Results show that the number of HSR cities in Northeast China is small,cities in HSR network generally exhibit weak connectivity,and the existence of HSR network marginalizes cities such as Ulanhot,Baicheng,and Songyuan,which significantly reduce the overall network connectivity of Northeast China.The overall centrality of HSR network in Northeast China is characterized by“one axis,four edges”;specifically,the one axis is located in Harbin-Dalian transportation line and the four edges are located on both sides of the main axis of Harbin-Dalian transportation line.Eight agglomeration subgroups(four double city subgroups and four multi city subgroups)have formed in Northeast China.The core status of Shenyang in HSR network is improved significantly,and“one axis and two wings”HSR network in Liaoning Province is improved significantly.With the gradual expansion of Chaoyang-Fuxin,Dandong-Benxi,and Jilin-Yanji branch networks,the“point axis”HSR network mode in Northeast China has gradually developed and matured.In the future,it is recommended to rely on eight agglomerating subgroups to encrypt HSR network structure,create secondary node central cities,and gradually build a new pattern of opening up in Northeast China.

文摘In a sensor network with a large number of densely populated sensor nodes, a single target of interest may be detected by multiple sensor nodes simultaneously. Data collected from the sensor nodes are usually highly correlated, and hence energy saving using in-network data fusion becomes possible. A traditional data fusion scheme starts with dividing the network into clusters, followed by electing a sensor node as cluster head in each cluster. A cluster head is responsible for collecting data from all its cluster members, performing data fusion on these data and transmitting the fused data to the base station. Assuming that a sensor node is only capable of handling a single node-to-node transmission at a time and each transmission takes T time-slots, a cluster head with n cluster members will take at least nT time-slots to collect data from all its cluster members. In this paper, a tree-based network structure and its formation algorithms are proposed. Simulation results show that the proposed network structure can greatly reduce the delay in data collection.

文摘Deep neural networks have achieved tremendous success in various fields,and the structure of these networks is a key factor in their success.In this paper,we focus on the research of ensemble learning based on deep network structure and propose a new deep network ensemble framework(DNEF).Unlike other ensemble learning models,DNEF is an ensemble learning architecture of network structures,with serial iteration between the hidden layers,while base classifiers are trained in parallel within these hidden layers.Specifically,DNEF uses randomly sampled data as input and implements serial iteration based on the weighting strategy between hidden layers.In the hidden layers,each node represents a base classifier,and multiple nodes generate training data for the next hidden layer according to the transfer strategy.The DNEF operates based on two strategies:(1)The weighting strategy calculates the training instance weights of the nodes according to their weaknesses in the previous layer.(2)The transfer strategy adaptively selects each node’s instances with weights as transfer instances and transfer weights,which are combined with the training data of nodes as input for the next hidden layer.These two strategies improve the accuracy and generalization of DNEF.This research integrates the ensemble of all nodes as the final output of DNEF.The experimental results reveal that the DNEF framework surpasses the traditional ensemble models and functions with high accuracy and innovative deep ensemble methods.

文摘One of the typical properties of biological systems is the law o f conservation o f mass,that is,the property that the mass must remain constant over time in a closed chemical reaction system.However,it is known that Boolean networks,which are a promising model of biological networks,do not always represent the conservation law.This paper thus addresses a kind of conservation law as a generic property of Boolean networks.In particular,we consider the problem of finding network structures on which,for any Boolean operation on nodes,the number of active nodes,i.ev nodes whose state is one,is constant over time.As a solution to the problem,we focus on the strongly-connected network structures and present a necessary and sufficient condition.

文摘The significance of network structure indicators for the planning and management of conventional public transit is widely acknowledged.In order to improve and enrich the conventional public transit assessment system,two network structure indicators are proposed.Firstly,according to the obvious defects lying in the traditional no-linear coefficient,the realistic no-linear coefficient γRNL,a modified no-linear coefficient indicator,is put forward,which takes into account the effects of barriers in a city.Secondly,to cover the gap of an indicator which can reflect the coverage homogeneity of a transit network,the length dimension LDis proposed on the basis of Fractal Theory.Finally,a case study is applied to verify the validity and practicability of the two indicators in problem diagnosis using regression analysis.The results validate that γRNLcan evaluate the detour of bus lines more reasonably than the previous no-linear coefficient because it reflects the layout of bus lines,and LDcan represent the rate of change of the network density,adding a new member to the scheme of network structure indicators for public transit.

文摘The title complex [CdLCl2] 1 (C10H15CdCl2N3, Mr = 360.55) has been synthesized by the reaction of CdCl22.5H2O with the tridentate Schiff base L, N,N-dimethyl-N-pyridin-2-yl- methylene-1,2-diaminoethane, which is derived from the condensation reaction of pyridine-2- carboxaldehyde and N,N-dimethylethylenediamine. It crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group C2/c with a = 25.054(13), b = 7.532(4), c = 16.119(8) ? b = 116.238(8)? V = 2728(2) ?, Z = 8, Dc = 1.756 g/cm3, m(MoKa) = 1.970 mm-1, F(000) = 1424, R = 0.0297 and wR = 0.0625. Crystal analyses reveal that the cadmium atom is coordinated by two chlorine atoms and three N atoms from the tridentate ligand in a distorted tetragonal pyramidal environment. Each complex molecule is connected with four surrounding ones to form 2D network by hydrogen bonds along the bc plane. The chlorine atoms act as acceptors and the carbon atoms of the tridentate Schiff base as donors with the CH…Cl distances in the range of 3.518～3.752 ?
文摘Fe-C-Si-Mn alloy castings used as blades in hydroelectric generators are studied and found to contain network structures after some heat treatments. Castings after annealing and normalizing were analyzed by microscope and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The network formed during annealing was proved by TEM to be pearlite with very fine slices, while that formed during normalizing was proved by TEM and micro-hardness to be martensite or bainite. A theoretical analysis together with experimental studies has proved that the pearlite network is caused by carbon content increase in the interdendritic regions to which carbon atoms transfered from dendritic arms due to lower manganese content there during annealing, while the martensite or bainite network results from the higher hardenability of interdendritic regions where manganese content is higher. Experiments reveal that higher heating temperature or longer heating time enlarges the network size due to manganese homogenization. The network structure has a strengthening function like reinforcing rib, and the smaller the network size, the greater its strengthening capability.
