However, the propagation mechanism behind this coexistence phenomenon remains unclear. In this paper, a three-dimensional electric field coupled hippocampal neural network is established to investigate generation of coexisting spontaneous fast and slow traveling waves. This model captures two types of dendritic traveling waves propagating in both transverse and longitude directions: the N-methyl-D-aspartate(NMDA)-dependent wave with a speed of about 0.1 m/s and the Ca-dependent wave with a speed of about 0.009 m/s. These traveling waves are synaptic-independent and could be conducted only by the electric fields generated by neighboring neurons, which are basically consistent with the in vitro data measured experiments. It is also found that the slow Ca wave could trigger generation of fast NMDA waves in the propagation path of slow waves whereas fast NMDA waves cannot affect the propagation of slow Ca waves. These results suggest that dendritic Ca waves could acted as the source of the coexistence fast and slow waves. Furthermore, we also confirm the impact of cellular spacing heterogeneity on the onset of coexisting fast and slow waves. The local region with decreasing distances among neighbor neurons is more liable to promote the onset of spontaneous slow waves which, as sources, excite propagation of fast waves. These modeling studies provide possible biophysical mechanisms underlying the neural dynamics of spontaneous traveling waves in brain tissues.展开更多

A number of heuristics related to the different stages of the algorithm are considered, and various variants of the algorithm based on these heuristics are analyzed. Sets of randomly generated points of different sizes (from 4 to 90 and from 500 to 10,000) were used to test the algorithms. The numerical results obtained are compared with the results of two well-known combinatorial optimization algorithms, namely the algorithm based on the branch and bound method and the simulated annealing algorithm. .展开更多

The results show that the critical radius of the pores decreases with increasing the magnetic density linearly when the traveling magnetic field is applied during solidification, and the use of traveling magnetic field promotes the heterogeneous nucleation of pores. After the gas dissolved in the metal liquid accumulates to form large bubbles, the traveling magnetic field forces the bubbles to the surface of molten metal, so the gas is easy to separate from the melt in the liquid stage. The number of pores in the sample decreases with increasing the intensity of traveling magnetic field.展开更多

文摘The generalized travelling salesman problem(GTSP),a generalization of the well-known travelling salesman problem(TSP),is considered for our study.Since the GTSP is NP-hard and very complex,finding exact solutions is highly expensive,we will develop genetic algorithms(GAs)to obtain heuristic solutions to the problem.In GAs,as the crossover is a very important process,the crossovermethods proposed for the traditional TSP could be adapted for the GTSP.The sequential constructive crossover(SCX)and three other operators are adapted to use in GAs to solve the GTSP.The effectiveness of GA using SCX is verified on some GTSP Library(GTSPLIB)instances first and then compared against GAs using the other crossover methods.The computational results show the success of the GA using SCX for this problem.Our proposed GA using SCX,and swap mutation could find average solutions whose average percentage of excesses fromthe best-known solutions is between 0.00 and 14.07 for our investigated instances.

文摘The effects of traveling magnetic field on degassing of aluminum alloys were investigated, and the critical radius of the pores was calculated. The results show that the critical radius of the pores decreases with increasing the magnetic density linearly when the traveling magnetic field is applied during solidification, and the use of traveling magnetic field promotes the heterogeneous nucleation of pores. After the gas dissolved in the metal liquid accumulates to form large bubbles, the traveling magnetic field forces the bubbles to the surface of molten metal, so the gas is easy to separate from the melt in the liquid stage. The number of pores in the sample decreases with increasing the intensity of traveling magnetic field.

文摘The influence of melt convection on dendrite growth during the upward-directional solidification of Pb-33%Sn binary alloys was investigated.The melt convection was modulated by traveling magnetic field.When the direction of traveling magnetic field was changed from upward to downward,the primary dendrite spacing gradually increased,and the distribution peak of the primary dendrite spacing shifted to the field of narrower spacing.These result from the different intensities of melt convection,which are controlled by the traveling magnetic field.The effects of the traveling magnetic field on melt convection are similar to those of adjustment in the gravity level,thus,the primary dendrite spacing varies.When the intensity of the traveling magnetic field was 1 mT,and the drawing speed was 50 μm/s,the gravity acceleration reached 0.22g for the downward-traveling magnetic field and 3.07g for the upward-traveling magnetic field.
文摘The Golden Week is a good chance for people to travel and relax from their work.My parents and I went to Beijing and visited the hot spots like the Great Wall.It is one of the most remarkable symbols of China,and it has a long history.But when we arrived at the Great Wall,I found that it had been damaged to some degree.Some tourists have left marks on the wall,so as to prove that they have been here before.
