When the hopping rates of both lanes are different, the system includes six steady phases, however, when the hopping rates of both lanes are same, the seventh phase(MC, MC) will exist in the system. Interestingly, with different hopping rates of both lanes, the densities of the system cannot be influenced by the non-zero vertical transition rate. Our theoretical arguments are in well agreement with extensively performed Monte Carlo simulations.展开更多

They are usuMly assumed to be dual Maxwellian distribution functions with the same temperature for thermal nuclear fusion circumstances. However, if high power neutral beam injection and minority ion species ICRF plasma heating, or multi-pinched plasma beam head-on collision, in a converging region are required and investigated in future large scale fusion reactors, then the fractions of the injected energetic fast ion tail resulting from ionization or charge exchange will be large enough and their contribution to the non-Maxwellian distribution functions is not negligible, hence to the fusion reaction rate coefficient or calculation of fusion power. In such cases, beam-target, and beam-beam reaction enhancement effect contributions should play very important roles. In this paper, several useful formulae to calculate the fusion reaction rate coefticient for different beam and target combination scenarios are derived in detail展开更多

The aim of this study was to determine the role of heart rate(HR) difference(ΔHR) and oxygen saturation(Sa O2) as objective risk factors in aiding the diagnosis of AMS.Methods: A total of 1,019 participants were assigned to either the acute exposure group(AEG): from 500 m to 3,700 m by flight within 2.5 hours(n=752); or the pre-acclimatization group(PAG): ascended to 4,400 m from 3,650 m within three hours by car after adapting 33 days at 3,650m(n=267). The questionnaires or measurements of resting Sa O2 and HR were completed between 18 and 24 hours before departure and after arrival.Results: Incidence of AMS was 61.3%(461) in AEG, with 46.1%(347) mild cases and 15.2%(114) severe cases. In PAG, the incidence was 38.9%(104), with 30.7%(82) mild cases and 8.2%(22) severe cases. The AMS subjects showed a significant increase in HR and a decrease in Sa O2 levels compared with the non-AMS subjects in both groups. ΔHR and post-exposure Sa O2 were significantly correlated with the Lake Louise Score(LLS) in both groups. Stepwise logistic regression analysis revealed the ΔHR >25 and Sa O2 <88% in AEG as well as ΔHR >15 and Sa O2 <86% in PAG to be independent risk factors of AMS. Combining these two measurements could specifically indicate participants with AMS, which showed a positive predictive value of 89% and specificity of 97% in AEG as well as 85% and 98% in PAG.Conclusion:ΔHR or Sa O2, as objective measurements, correlate with AMS. Combination of these two measurements may be useful as an additional specific and objective factor to further confirm the diagnosis of AMS.展开更多

Herein, we discovered that the performance of DNAzyme cleaving the substrate is highly related to its length. This intriguing phenomenon only appears at the interfaces of DNAfunctionalized gold nanoparticles. We systematically investigated the causes of this phenomenon. We conjectured that the DNAzyme with extended nucleotides that do not match its substrate strand is vulnerable to non-specific adsorption, electrostatic repulsion, and steric hindrance. Based on our improved understanding of this phenomenon, we have successfully developed a highly sensitive and specific amplifiable biosensor to detect human apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1.展开更多

A soliton mode-locked161 MHz high repetition rate fiber laser using a single wall carbon nanotube was fabricated. The output pulse was amplified in an Er-doped single mode fiber amplifier, and a 1.1–2.2 μm wideband supercontinuum(SC) with an average power of 205 m W was generated in highly nonlinear fiber. The spectrogram of the generated SC was examined both experimentally and numerically. The generated SC was focused into a nonlinear crystal, and stable generation of MIR comb around the 3 μm wavelength region was realized.展开更多

The server may be subject to breakdowns at random when it is in operation. As soon as the server fails, a repair process immediately begins. During the repair period, the defective server still provides service for the waiting customers at a lower service rate rather than completely stopping service.We analyze the stability condition for the considered system. Using the probability generating function technique, we obtain the probability generating function of the steady-state queue size distribution.Also, various important performance measures are derived explicitly. Furthermore, some numerical results are provided to carry out the sensitivity analysis so as to illustrate the effect of different parameters on the system performance measures. Finally, an operating cost function is formulated to model a computer system and the parabolic method is employed to numerically find the optimum service rate in working breakdown period.展开更多

Multiple repairs and different failure rates, never simultaneously addressed in earlier works, are taken into account. First, a revised graphical methodology integrating transformation and decomposition is utilized to construct the stochastic manufacturing system as a multi-state manufacturing network (MSMN). In particular, a "predecessor-set" technique is proposed to deal with multiple repairs. An algorithm is proposed to generate the lowest capacity vectors (LCVs) that stations should provide to satisfy the workloads. Subsequently, the system reliability of the MSMN, which is defined as the probability of demand satisfaction, is calculated in terms of the LCVs. A real case of a printed circuit board manufacturing system is utilized to demonstrate how the system reliability can be evaluated. A further decision making issue is addressed based on the derived system reliability.展开更多

The server may be subject to breakdowns at random when it is in operation. As soon as the server fails, a repair process immediately begins. During the repair period, the defective server still provides service for the waiting customers at a lower service rate rather than completely stopping service.We analyze the stability condition for the considered system. Using the probability generating function technique, we obtain the probability generating function of the steady-state queue size distribution.Also, various important performance measures are derived explicitly. Furthermore, some numerical results are provided to carry out the sensitivity analysis so as to illustrate the effect of different parameters on the system performance measures. Finally, an operating cost function is formulated to model a computer system and the parabolic method is employed to numerically find the optimum service rate in working breakdown period.

文摘This paper studies the reliability evaluation of a stochastic manufacturing system with multiple production lines in parallel. Multiple repairs and different failure rates, never simultaneously addressed in earlier works, are taken into account. First, a revised graphical methodology integrating transformation and decomposition is utilized to construct the stochastic manufacturing system as a multi-state manufacturing network (MSMN). In particular, a "predecessor-set" technique is proposed to deal with multiple repairs. An algorithm is proposed to generate the lowest capacity vectors (LCVs) that stations should provide to satisfy the workloads. Subsequently, the system reliability of the MSMN, which is defined as the probability of demand satisfaction, is calculated in terms of the LCVs. A real case of a printed circuit board manufacturing system is utilized to demonstrate how the system reliability can be evaluated. A further decision making issue is addressed based on the derived system reliability.
