Laborious synthetic processes for functionalizing polymer dielectrics with photo-cross-linkable groups were avoided. The photo-cross-linker, BBP-4, was added into host polymers by simple solution blending process, which was capable of abstracting hydrogen atoms from polymers containing active C--H groups upon exposure to ultraviolet （UV） radiation. The cross-linking can be completed with a relatively long wavelength UV light （365 nm）. The approach has been applied to methacrylate and styrenic polymers such as commercial poly（methylmethacrylate） （PMMA）, poly（iso-butylmethacrylate） （PiBMA） and poly（4-methylstyrene） （PMS）. The cross-linked networks enhanced dielectric properties and solvent resistance of the thin films. The bottom-gate organic field-effect transistors （OFETs） through all solution processes on plastic substrate were fabricated. The OFET devices showed low voltage operation and steep subthreshold swing at relatively small gate dielectric capacitance.展开更多

A new dimensionless parameter, called the threshold-crossing intensity, is defined as a measure of the threshold-crossing severity, which is equal to the ratio of the product of average number of crossing events per unit time and mean threshold-crossing duration and amplitude over the threshold. It is found, by the calculation results for various combinations of stochastic processes and different thresholds, that the threshold-crossing intensity, irrelevant of the threshold and spectral density of the process, is dependent only on the threshold-crossing probability.展开更多

The results show that the sequence of process parameters in order of greatest influence on interfacial tensile strength was rolling temperature, area reduction, core material diameter, forming angle and spreading angle. At the interface of the combined materials, tensile strength decreased as forming angle and spreading angle increased, whereas the tensile strength first increased and then decreased as area reduction, rolling temperature and core material diameter increased.展开更多

Coordinating and integrating operational processes to fulfill a common mission are challenged by the ever-changing battlefield and hence requires a cross-organizational process management that produces an autonomous, flexible and adaptable architecture for collaborative process evolution. The traditional business process collaboration pattern is based on the predefined "public-view" perspective and cannot meet the requirement of the joint task operations. This paper proposes a flexible visibility control mechanism and a dynamic collaboration framework for modeling and generating collaborative processes. The mechanism allows collaborators to define a set of visibility rules to generate different views of the private processes for different collaborations, which gives a great flexibility for the collaboration initiator to decide on an appropriate collaboration pattern. The framework supports collaborators to dynamically and recursively add a new process or even a new organization to an existing collaboration. Moreover, a formal representation of the processes and a set of generation algorithms are provided to consolidate the proposed theory.展开更多

The various available platforms make cross-study validations/comparisons difficult. Meanwhile, sample sizes of the studies are fast increasing, which poses a heavy computational burden to even the fastest PC.Here, we describe a novel method that can generate a platform-independent dataset given SNP arrays from multiple platforms. It extracts the common probesets from individual platforms, and performs cross-platform normalizations and summari-zations based on these probesets. Since different platforms may have different numbers of probes per probeset (PPP), the above steps produce preprocessed signals with different noise levels for the platforms. To handle this problem, we adopt a platform-dependent smoothing strategy, and produce a preprocessed dataset that demonstrates uniform noise levels for individual samples.To increase the scalability of the method to a large number of samples, we devised an algorithm that split the samples into multiple tasks, and probesets into multiple segments before submitting to a parallel computing facility. This scheme results in a drastically reduced computation time and increased ability to process ultra-large sample sizes and arrays.展开更多

In this paper, we propose a combination of techniques that can improve the applicability and quality of the resource estimation. These techniques include： 1） the use of the Multivariate Discovery Process model （MDP） to derive unbiased distribution parameters of reservoir volumetric variables and to reveal correlations among the variables; 2） the use of the Geo-anchored method to estimate simultaneously the number of oil and gas pools in the same play; and 3） the crossvalidation of assessment results from different methods. These techniques are illustrated by using an example of crude oil and natural gas resource assessment of the Sverdrup Basin, Canadian Archipelago. The example shows that when direct volumetric measurements of the untested prospects are not available, the MDP model can help derive unbiased estimates of the distribution parameters by using information from the discovered oil and gas accumulations. It also shows that an estimation of the number of oil and gas accumulations and associated size ranges from a discovery process model can provide an alternative and efficient approach when inadequate geological data hinder the estimation. Cross-examination of assessment results derived using different methods allows one to focus on and analyze the causes for the major differences, thus providing a more reliable assessment outcome.展开更多

Such a field is given by convolution of a vector of univariate random fields and a functional matrix which is derived by Cholesky decomposition of the Fourier transform of the predefined cross-covariance matrix. In contrast to common methods, no restrictive model for the cross-covariance is needed. It is stationary and can also be reduced to the isotropic case. The computational effort is very low since fast Fourier transform can be used for simulation. As will be shown the algorithm is computationally faster than a recently published spectral turning bands model. The applicability is demonstrated using a common numerical example with varied spatial correlation structure. The model was developed to support simulation algorithms for mineral microstructures in geoscience.展开更多

文摘Through rolling experiments and interfacial tensile strength tests of cross-wedge rolled laminated shafts of 42CrMo/Q235 composites, the influence of process parameters, including forming angle, spreading angle, area reduction, rolling temperature and core material diameter on the interfacial shear strength was analyzed. The results show that the sequence of process parameters in order of greatest influence on interfacial tensile strength was rolling temperature, area reduction, core material diameter, forming angle and spreading angle. At the interface of the combined materials, tensile strength decreased as forming angle and spreading angle increased, whereas the tensile strength first increased and then decreased as area reduction, rolling temperature and core material diameter increased.
