Stochastic tumor growth system with two different kinds of time delay

The dynamical properties of a noise-driven tumor cell growth system are investigated when there exist two different kinds of time delays, in the deterministic and fluctuating forces, respectively. Using the approximation probability density approach, the delayed Fokker-Planck equation is obtained. The effects of two different time delays on the stationary probability distribution (SPD), the mean value and the mean passage time (MFPT) are discussed. It is found that the time delay τ₁ in the deterministic force can enhance tumor cell number, while the time delay τ₂ in the fluctuating force can induce a decrease in tumor cell numbers. On the other hand, while τ₁ can hold back the extinction of tumor cells, τ₂ can speed up their extinction.     

Correlated vortex pinning in Si-nanoparticle doped MgB2

The magnetoresistivity and critical current density of well characterized Si-nanoparticle doped and undoped Cu-sheathed MgB₂ tapes have been measured at temperatures T≥28 K in magnetic fields B≤0.9 T. The irreversibility line B_irr(T) for doped tape shows a stepwise variation with a kink around 0.3 T. Such B_irr(T) variation is typical for high-temperature superconductors with columnar defects (a kink occurs near the matching field B_?) and is very different from a smooth B_irr(T) variation in undoped MgB₂ samples. The microstructure studies of nanoparticle doped MgB₂ samples show uniformly dispersed nanoprecipitates, which probably act as a correlated disorder. The observed difference between the field variations of the critical current density and pinning force density of the doped and undoped tape supports the above findings.

Surface wave fields and power in millimeter wave integrated dipole antennas

In this paper simple closed form expressions of surface wave fields for microstrip dipoles on grounded substrates are presented. The surface power, radiated power and radiation efficiency are calculated. It is shown that the radiation efficiency decreases with the increase of substrate electrical thickness. Hence new type antennas are needed to radiate millimeter wave because of the effect of the surface waves in substrate.     

Preparation of polypropylene/silica composites by in-situ sol–gel processing using hyperbranched polyethoxysiloxane

Based on a volatile-free silica liquid precursor polymer—hyperbranched polyethoxysiloxane (PEOS), an industrial compatible in situ sol–gel process for the preparation of polymer/silica nanocomposites has been developed. It has been shown that in the presence of a catalyst water vapor induced a fast conversion of liquid PEOS to solid silica in polypropylene (PP) melt in a twin-screw microcompounder. Solid state NMR showed that the in situ conversion of PEOS proceeded to a large extent. With small amounts of PEOS this procedure yielded PP/silica composites with particle size less than 100 nm. The particle size increased with the PEOS amount blended with PP. Nevertheless, the particles were observed to be homogeneously dispersed within the polymer matrix. PP/silica composites prepared by in situ sol–gel technology showed improved thermal properties, but almost not affected mechanical properties in comparison with pure PP.     

A note on the coupling efficiency between an antenna and a Gaussian beam

In this communication a note on the coupling efficiency between an antenna and a Gaussian beam is presented. The calculations of the coupling efficiency from both methods, a nomorlized inner product between the antenna radiation pattern and the Gaussian-beam pattern or alternatively, between the electric field at the antenna aperture and a two-dimensional field representation of a Gaussian beam, are compared for different aperture size in wavelength. How a correct solution can be gotten is stated.     

Analysis of the Scattering Characteristic of Several Waveguide Components Using Boundary Element Method

Several kinds of waveguide components such as curved waveguide bends, arbitrary angle waveguide bends and T-junctions have been analyzed with boundary element method in this paper. A new discretization method for the boundary element method to solve the waveguide discontinuities has been given. The numerical results obtained agree well with the experimental results and numerical results in other literature. Especially, the scattering characteristics of Forded E-, H-plane T-junctions in 3mm band have been analyzed using boundary element method and the calculation results are presented.
