In this research, BaTiO3 thick deposit has been successfully sprayed by air plasma spray. The microstructure and dielectric properties of thick films were investigated by secondary electron microscopy (SEM) and LCR meter respectively. XRD measurement was carried out on plasma sprayed BaTiO3. The results illustrate differences in the crystal structure between plasma sprayed coatings and feed sto...

We establish Pontryagin Maximum Principles in the strong form for infinite horizon optimal control problems for bounded processes, for systems governed by difference equations. Results due to Ioffe and Tihomirov are among the tools used to prove our theorems. We write necessary conditions with weakened hypotheses of concavity and without invertibility, and we provide new results on the adjoint ...

In this paper, we present SBAC (Soft Bound Admission Control) algorithm considering critical bandwidth ratio to reduce handover blocking probability over WLAN and WAAN (Wide Area Access Network). SBAC algorithm utilizes dynamically optimized resource allocation scheme to decrease the blocking probability of vertical handover connections within the limited capacity of system. Based on SBAC algor...

We study Coulomb interactions in the finite bias response of Mach-Zehnder interferometers, which exploit copropagating edge states in the integer quantum Hall effect. Here, interactions are particularly important since the coherent coupling of edge channels is due to a resonant mechanism that is spoiled by inelastic processes. We find that interactions yield a saturation, as a function of bias ...

We study the simple random walk on Uniform Infinite Half-Plane Map, which is local limit of critical Boltzmann planar maps with a large and boundary. prove that recurrent, resistance between root boundary hull radius r at least order logr. This bound expected to be sharp, better than those following from previous proofs recurrence for nonbounded-degree models. Our main tools are self-duality un...

This study examines how reference to spatial boundaries can make speakers of English represent or understand a motion event as temporally bounded. Spatial boundaries can be implied by (a) the path expressed by a directional item, (b) the so-called ―landmark‖ (Langacker, 1987) serving as ̳support‘ for the path, and (c) the moving entity. Importantly, one and the same entity in the real world can...

Identification of causal genomic mutations that underlie disease phenotypes remains a key problem in the field of medical informatics. With the advent of new sequencing technologies and decreasing cost of human genotyping, it is now possible to study genotype-phenotype interactions, such as genome-wide association studies (GWAS), at the population level. However, due to large genomic variance a...

copper–silver bimetallic strips were produced by cold roll welding process and were treated by diffusion annealing in the temperature range 250–800 ?c. the interface bonding strength was determined by bending and peeling tests, resistance, conductivity and micro hardness profiles were determined and microstructure in the interface region was observed by optical microscope. electrical resistance...
