The original SEBVHOS algorithm is parallelized first, and then several performance optimization techniques which are loop optimization, cache optimization, false sharing optimization, synchronization overhead op-timization, and thread affinity optimization, are used to improve the implementation's performance on multi-core systems. The performance of the parallel SEBVHOS algorithm is analyzed on a dual-core system. The experimental results show that the parallel SEBVHOS algorithm achieves an average of 1.86x speedup. More importantly, our method does not come with additional aliasing artifacts, com-paring to the original SEBVHOS algorithm.展开更多

It is found that artificial neural network is a good approach on studying welding metallurgy processes that cannot be described by conventional mathematical methods. In the same time we explored a new way to study the no equilibrium welding metallurgy processes.展开更多

In this research, it has been shown that length of the borehole segments created by each joint set could be computed by trigonometrical relations. By realizing the lengths associated with joint sets, an algorithm has been designed to compute the length of borehole pieces (created by all joint sets) and to calculate RQD. Effect of some factors have been analyzed and applied to the abstract model of the rock mass to have the most similarity to a real rock mass. The program proposed in this study, is a robust platform to calculate the RQD in all directions inside a rock mass without having to deal with the labor of core logging and wrestling with difficulties and inaccuracies of the traditional processes. This is the first algorithmic method for estimating the rock quality which could be employed to develop a new and far more reliable measurement for the degree of jointing inside a rock mass.展开更多
