Deposition-evaporation stochastic systems in two and higher dimensions

We study the stochastic dynamics of deposition-evaporation cooperative processes of dimers, trimers, etc., in two- and higher-dimensional lattices. The dimer system in bipartite lattices allows for an exact solution of dynamic correlations and scaling functions by means of a quantum spin equivalence. Autocorrelations exhibit a diffusive asymptotic kinetics and crossovers of different dynamic regimes in highly anisotropic lattices. Monte Carlo simulations combined with finite-size scaling arguments support the validity of the diffusive picture in more general situations. Steady-state coverages and diffusion constants are obtained using mean-field approaches, spin wave calculations, and random walk analyses in nearly jammed configurations.     

Analytical techniques for cyanide in blood and published blood cyanide concentrations from healthy subjects and fire victims

Hydrogen cyanide can be produced by the pyrolysis of man-made polymers. Cyanide has been measured in the blood of healthy adults as well as the blood of fire survivors and fatalities. In healthy subjects the blood cyanide concentration of smokers is higher than that of non-smokers. Fire survivors and fatalities have been found to have higher cyanide levels than of control groups and the levels from fire fatalities are often higher than survivors. Blood concentrations quoted as normal, toxic or fatal are highly variable in the literature. Many studies have been performed to measure the blood cyanide levels in control subjects as well as those who have been exposed to fire but the values found differ. The values for control subjects can vary from none detected to 19 μmol dm⁻³ while those for fire survivors range from not detected to 150 μmol dm⁻³ and fatalities range from not detected to 284 μmol dm⁻³. Analytical techniques and published data are critically reviewed.Many of the existing antidotes for cyanide poisoning are highly toxic themselves and should ideally be administered at doses proportional to the amount of cyanide a patient has received to avoid compounding damage done by cyanide intoxication. For this reason, a rapid, accurate bedside assay of blood cyanide concentration that differentiates between bound and free cyanide would represent a leap forward in the clinical management of cyanide poisoning.     

Random and cooperative sequential adsorption on infinite ladders and strips

We analyze various processes where particles are added irreversibly and sequentially at the sites of infinite ladders or broader strips (i.e., on terraces) of adsorption sites. For sufficiently narrow strips or ladders, exact solution in closed form is possible for a variety of processes. Often this is most naturally achieved by mapping the process onto an equivalent one-dimensional process typically involvingcompetitive adsorption. We demonstrate this procedure for sequential adsorption with nearest-neighbor exclusion on a 2× square ladder. For other select processes on strips slightly too broad for exact solution, almost exact analysis is possible exploiting an empty-site shielding property. In this way, we determine a jamming coverage of 0.91556671 for random sequential adsorption of dimers on a 2× square ladder. For broader strips, we note that the complexity of these problems quickly approaches that for × lattices.     

航空通信网络中复杂干扰过滤技术研究

航空通信环境中存在复杂的干扰信号,对正常的通信信号造成强烈的干扰。利用传统算法进行干扰信号过滤,无法避免由于干扰信号过于复杂导致过滤不充分的缺陷。提出一种基于加权残差优化算法的航空通信网络中复杂干扰过滤方法。对原始信号进行降频处理,能够消除峰值干扰信号,提高了信号的准确性。根据加权残差修正优化算法的相关原理,对通信信号进行残差优化处理,经过处理后的通信信号在受到干扰时会形成零陷,实现了对复杂干扰信号的过滤。实验结果表明,利用该算法进行航空通信网络中复杂干扰信号过滤,能够有效提高过滤的准确性,效果令人满意。     

Temperature and humidity behaviour of a corona based smoke sensor

Ionization smoke sensors are amongst the best smoke sensors; however, the little radioactive source that they include is no longer desirable since recycling gets more complicated. In this paper we discuss an electrostatic system in which corona phenomena is used to generate the ions needed to smoke detection. We show how the velocity of ions is reduced in our system for a better interaction between smoke and drifting ions. Influence of smoke, temperature and moisture is studied. It is shown that the proposed sensor has a good sensitivity compared with conventional ionic and optical smoke sensors.     

Facile synthesis of bio-based phosphorus-containing epoxy resins with excellent flame resistance

The development of high-performance biomass-derived epoxy thermosets with excellent flame resistance is vital to various applications (i.e., composites, coatings and adhesives). Herein, a difunctional epoxy monomer bis(2-methoxy-4-(oxiran-2-ylmethyl)phenyl) phenyl phosphate (BEU-EP) was synthesized from abundant and biobased eugenol. In addition, BEU-EP was cured by 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl methane (DDM) and the cured resin diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA)/DDM was used as a reference. Results indicated that BEU-EP/DDM not only showed a 58.1%, 28.8% and 35.1% increase in residual char (at 700 °C), flexural and storage modulus (at 30 °C) compared with DGEBA/DDM, but also exhibited excellent flame resistance and smoke suppression. BEU-EP/DDM passed V-0 rating (in UL-94 testing) with limiting oxygen index (LOI) of 38.4% and greatly decreased the peak heat release rate (pHRR) and total smoke production (TSP) by 84.9% and 80.5%, respectively. The mechanism analysis confirmed that the phosphorus-containing group and aromatic structure from BEU-EP contributed both the gas and condensed-phase flame retardation of BEU-EP/DDM network. This work provides an efficient and scalable route for synthesizing biobased epoxy thermosets with high integrated performance and superior flame resistance.     

Fabrication of flame-retardant and smoke-suppressant isocyanate-based polyimide foam modified by silica aerogel thermal insulation and flame protection layers

Because of containing urea groups, flame resistance and smoke releasing behaviors of isocyanate-based polyimide foam (IBPIF) produced using free foaming technology require further improvement. In this work, silica aerogel layers were incorporated into cells of IBPIF through an in situ growth process of silica sol (SS). Compared with silica aerogel particles directly mixed into the foaming slurry, the silica aerogel layers that firmly attached to the pores and surfaces of cells not only provided exceptional thermal insulation and flame protection, but also kept original cellular structure. With increase in ratio of SS mass to IBPIF volume, silica aerogel incorporation dosage was gradually increased. Accompanied by flame resistance was obviously improved and smoke releasing behavior was effectively suppressed. Those were indicated by the improved limiting oxygen index (LOI), decreased heat release rate (HRR), peak of HRR, and specific optical density of smoke (Ds) in trials with pilot flames. Compared with pure IBPIF, when the ratio reached to 5/15 g/cm³, it resulted in LOI increasing from 22.0% to 33.0%, peak of HRR, total smoke production (TSP), and maximum value of Ds decreasing from 174 to 72 kW/m², 1.11 to 0.37 m²/m², 45.90 to 17.45, respectively.
