Isothermal compression of Ti-6Al-4V alloy was conducted in the deformation temperature range of 1093-1303 K, the strain rates of 0.001, 0.01, 0.1, 1.0, and 10.0 s-1, and the height reductions of 20%-60% with an interv...Isothermal compression of Ti-6Al-4V alloy was conducted in the deformation temperature range of 1093-1303 K, the strain rates of 0.001, 0.01, 0.1, 1.0, and 10.0 s-1, and the height reductions of 20%-60% with an interval of 10%. After compression, the effect of the processing parameters including deformation temperature, strain rate, and height reduction on the flow stress and the microstructure was investigated. The grain size of primary a phase was measured using an OLYMPUS PMG3 microscope with the quantitative metallography SISC IAS V8.0 image analysis software. A model of grain size in isothermal compression of Ti-6A1-4V alloy was developed using fuzzy neural net- work （FNN） with back-propagation （BP） learning algorithm. The maximum difference and the average difference between the predicted and the experimental grain sizes of primary a phase are 13.31% and 7.62% for the sampled data, and 16.48% and 6.97% for the non-sampled data, respectively. It can be concluded that the present model with high prediction precision can be used to predict the grain size in isothermal compression of Ti-6Al-4V alloy.展开更多

With the emergence of cost effective and enhanced user experience needs, the Quality of Service (QoS) of the underlying Ethernet network has become a major issue. A network must provide predictable, reliable and guaranteed services. The required QoS on the network is achieved through managing the end-to-end delay, throughput, jitter, transmission rate and many other network performance parameters. The paper investigates QoS parameters based on packet size to analyze the network performance. Segmentation in packet size larger than 1500 bytes, Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) of Ethernet, is used to divide the large data into small packets. A simulation process under Riverbed modeler 17.5 initiates several scenarios of the Ethernet network to depict the QoS metrics in the Ethernet topology. For analyzing the result from the simulation process, varying sized packets are considered. Hence, the network performance results in distinct throughput, end-to-end delay, packet loss ratio, bit error rate etc. for varying packet sizes.展开更多

Based on the molecular-level processes of actin polymerization, branching, capping, and depolymerization, we have developed a modeling framework to simulate the stochastic and cooperative behaviors of growing actin networks in propelling obstacles, with an emphasis on the size and shape effects on work capacity and filament orientation in the growing process. Our results show that the characteristic size of obstacles changes the protrusion power per unit length, without influencing the orientation distribution of actin filaments in growing networks. In contrast, the geometry of obstacles has a profound effect on filament patterning, which influences the orientation of filaments differently when the drag coefficient of environment is small, intermediate, or large. We also discuss the role of various parameters, such as the aspect ratio of obstacles, branching rate, and capping rate, in affecting the protrusion power of network growth.展开更多

An experimental scheme was first worked out for acquisition of sample data, in which a gleeble-1500 thermal simolator was used to obtain rolling temperature, strain, stain rate, and stress-strain curves. And consequently the aust enite grain sizes was obtained through microscopic observation. The experimental data was then processed through regression. By using the training network of BP algorithm, the mapping relationship between the hotrooling control parameters (rolling temperature, stain, and strain rate) and the microstructural paramete rs (austenite grain in size and flow stress) of microalloy steel was function appro ached for the establishment of a neural network-based model of the austeuite grain size and flow stress of microalloy steel. From the results of estimation made with the neural network based model, the hot-rolling control parameters can be effectively predicted.展开更多

Fuzzy logic (FL) and artificial neural network (ANN) were used to model the mechanical properties of aluminum-5%magnesium (0-0.9 wt%) neodymium. The single input (SI) to the fuzzy logic and artificial neural network models was the percentage weight of neodymium, while the multiple outputs (MO) were average grain size, ultimate tensile strength, yield strength elongation and hardness. The fuzzy logic-based model showed more accurate prediction than the artificial neutral network-based model in terms of the correlation coefficient values (R).展开更多
