چکیده

In this paper, a guideline is provided for design and optimization of the shape of active transport molecular communication channels. In particular rectangular channels are considered and it is shown that for channels employing a single microtubule as the carrier of the information particles, the smaller the perimeter of the channel, the higher the channel capacity. Furthermore, it is shown that when channels with similar perimeters are considered, square-like channels achieve higher channel capacity for small values of time per channel use, while narrower channels achieve higher information rates for larger values of time per channel use.

Waveform Design using Second Order Cone Programming in Radar Systems

Transmit waveform design is one of the most important problems in active sensing and communication systems. This problem, due to the complexity and non-convexity, has been always the main topic of many papers for the decades. However, still an optimal solution which guarantees a global minimum for this multi-variable optimization problem is not found. In this paper, we propose an attracting met...

Numerical Modeling of an Innovative Bipolar Plate Design Based on the Leaf Venation Patterns for PEM Fuel Cells

Flow channel design on bipolar plates has a direct effect on Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cell performance. It has been found out that the flow field design has a deterministic role on the mass transport and water management, and therefore on the achieved power in PEM Fuel cells. This study concentrates on improvements in the fuel cell performance through optimization of channel dimensio...

تئوری رژیم و کاربرد آن برای جریان‌های یک‌نواخت و غیر یک‌نواخت

Suitable stable channel design and optimization of river geometry can reduce cost of projects. The regime theory provides the possibility of empirical and semi-empirical investigations of stable channel design in which erosion and sediment transport are in equilibrium. The objective of this research is an investigation and a comparison of the influence of uniform and non-uniform flows on the pr...

Optimal Design of Open Channel Sections Using PSO Algorithm

This paper applies an evolutionary algorithm, the particle swarm optimization (PSO), to design the optimum open channel section. Depth, channel side slope and bottom width are considered as the variables for rectangular, triangular and trapezoidal channels, respectively. The objective function is minimizing the construction cost of the channel section. MATLAB software is used for programming an...
