基于改进网络模型的大时滞网络拥塞控制算法

　随着对网络拥塞控制的深入研究,出现了许多有关网络流量的控制理论及网络模型.Misra等人于2000年基于流体流(fluidflow)理论提出的模型被研究人员广为采用.但模型在推导过程中的一些近似却使得模型对网络行为描述不精确.本文对此从理论和实验结果两方面进行了详细分析,并对原模型进行了改进.基于改进的模型,把一种PID(ProportionalIntegralDifferential)及类PID设计方法用于AQM(ActiveQueueManagement)控制器的设计.对比仿真结果表明,该算法具有更好的性能.

On the chemical synthesis and drug delivery response of folate receptor-activated, polyethylene glycol-functionalized magnetite nanoparticles

We describe here the chemical synthesis and in vitro drug delivery response of polyethylene glycol (PEG)-functionalized magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles, which were activated with a stable ligand, folic acid, and conjugated with an anticancer drug, doxorubicin. The functionalization and conjugation steps in the chemical synthesis were confirmed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The drug-release behavior of PEG-functionalized and folic acid-doxorubicin-conjugated magnetic nanoparticles was characterized by two stages involving an initial rapid release, followed by a controlled release.

Effects of reinforcement filler and temperature on the stability of beta-crystal in glass bead filled polypropylene

The effects of crystallization temperature (T,), glass bead content and its size on the, formation of beta-crystal and structural stability of originally formed beta-crystal in glass bead filled polypropylene (PP) were examined. The differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements indicated that the amount of beta-phase in PP crystals was a function of the crystallization temperature and glass bead content. For a constant crystallization temperature, it was observed that the amount of beta-crystal initially increased with increase in glass bead content up to 30 wt.%, and then decreased slightly with further increase in the filler content. From the DSC data, a disorder parameter (S) was derived to define the structural stability of originally formed beta-crystals. The structural stability of originally formed beta-crystals was enhanced with increase in either the crystallization temperature or the glass bead content. Also, the influence of glass bead size (4-66 mu m) on the formation and stability of beta-crystals in PP/glass bead blends was studied. Large glass bead particles suppressed the formation and decreased the stability of beta-crystals.

Nonisothermal crystallization behavior of glass-bead-filled polypropylene

The effects of the glass-bead content and size on the nonisothermal crystallization behavior of polypropylene (PP)/glass-bead blends were studied with differential scanning calorimetry. The degree of crystallinity decreased with the addition of glass bead, and the crystallization temperature of the blends was marginally higher than that of pure PP at various cooling rates. Furthermore, the half-time for crystallization decreased with an increase in the glass-bead content or particle size, implying the nucleating role of the glass beads. The nonisothermal crystallization data were analyzed with the methods of Avrami, Ozawa, and Mo. The validity of various kinetic models for the nonisothermal crystallization process of PP/glass-bead blends was examined. The approach developed by Mo successfully described the nonisothermal crystallization behavior of PP and PP/glass-bead blends. Finally, the activation energy for the nonisothermal crystallization of pure PP and PP/glass-bead blends based on the Kissinger method was evaluated.
