A cluster line approach to finding new Fe-B-Y-Nb-Zr bulk metallic glasses

The glass forming ability of the [(Fe12/13Y1/13)100?xBx]96Nb2Zr2 (x=9–26) system was investigated using a series of cluster lines. Three types of clusters, an icosahedron (Fe12Y), a capped Archimedes anti-prism (Fe8B3) and a capped trigonal prism (Fe9B), as well as a binary eutectic (Fe83B17) were considered. Bulk glassy alloy rods of 3 mm in diameter were synthesized using a copper mold suction-casting method. The glass transition temperature was observed for all samples in the boron range of 15.9at%-25.7at%, with the alloy at 15.9at% of boron having the best thermal properties. The ferrous-based bulk metallic glasses (BMG) obtained have high reduced glass transition temperatures with the maximum reaching 0.63 and large supercooled liquid regions with the maximum reaching 111 K. Magnetic testing revealed a large value of coercive force and remanent magnetization, being 11 kA/m and 0.1 T, re- spectively.

An on-line scaling method for improving scalability of a database cluster

The explosive growth of the Internet and database applications has driven database to be more scalable and available, and able to support on line scaling without interrupting service. To support more client’s queries without downtime and degrading the response time, more nodes have to be scaled up while the database is running. This paper presents the overview of scalable and available database that satisfies the above characteristics. And we propose a novel on line scaling method. Our method improves the existing on line scaling method for fast response time and higher throughputs. Our proposed method reduces unnecessary network use, i.e., we decrease the number of data copy by reusing the backup data. Also, our on line scaling operation can be processed parallel by selecting adequate nodes as new node. Our performance study shows that our method results in significant reduction in data copy time.

Document Clustering with Evolutionary Systems through Straight-Line Programs “<i>slp</i>”

In this paper, we show a clustering method supported on evolutionary algorithms with the paradigm of linear genetic programming. “The Straight-Line Programs (slp)”, which uses a data structure which will be useful to represent collections of documents. This data structure can be seen as a linear representation of programs, as well as representations in the form of graphs. It has been used as a theoretical model in Computer Algebra, and our purpose is to reuse it in a completely different context. In this case, we apply it to the field of grouping library collections through evolutionary algorithms. We show its efficiency with experimental data we got from traditional library collections.

Rigidity Symmetry Line for Thermodynamic Fluid Equations-of-State

We report progress towards a modern scientific description of thermodynamic properties of fluids following the discovery (in 2012) of a coexisting critical density hiatus and a supercritical mesophase defined by percolation transitions. The state functions density ρ(p,T), and Gibbs energy G(p,T), of fluids, e.g. CO2, H2O and argon exhibit a symmetry characterised by the rigidity, ω = (dp/dρ)T, between gaseous and liquid states along any isotherm from critical (Tc) to Boyle (TB) temperatures, on either side of the supercritical mesophase. Here, using experimental data for fluid argon, we investigate the low-density cluster physics description of an ideal dilute gas that obeys Dalton’s partial pressure law. Cluster expansions in powers of density relate to a supercritical liquid-phase rigidity symmetry (RS) line (ω = ρrs(T) = RT) to gas phase virial coefficients. We show that it is continuous in all derivatives, linear within stable fluid phase, and relates analytically to the Boyle-work line (BW) (w = (p/ρ)T = RT), and to percolation lines of gas (PB) and liquid (PA) phases by: ρBW(T) = 2ρPA(T) = 3ρPB(T) = 3ρRS(T)/2 for T TB. These simple relationships arise, because the higher virial coefficients (bn, n ≥ 4) cancel due to clustering equilibria, or become negligible at all temperatures (0 T TB) within the gas phase. The Boyle-work line (p/ρBW)T is related exactly at lower densities as T → TB, and accurately for liquid densities, by ρBW(T) = −(b2/b3)T. The RS line, ω(T) = RT, defines a new liquid-density ground-state physical constant (ρRS(0) = (2/3)ρBW(0) for argon). Given the gas-liquid rigidity symmetry, the entire thermodynamic state functions below TB are obtainable from b2(T). A BW-line ground-state crystal density ρBW(0) can be defined by the pair potential minimum. The Ar2 pair potential, ∅ij(rij) determines b2(T) analytically for all T. This report, therefore, advances the salient objective of liquid-state theory: an argon p(ρ,T) Equation-of-state is obtained from ∅ij(rij) for all fluid states, without any adjustable parameters.

Cluster-based composition rules for ternary alloy systems

The cluster-based composition rule in ternary alloy systems including quasicrystals, bulk metallic glasses, crystalline phases and Lave phases-related body-centered cubic (BCC) solid solution forming systems was summarized. The so-called cluster line in a ternary phase diagram refers to a straight composition line linking a specific binary cluster to the third element. The compo- sition ranges of quasicrystals and bulk metallic glasses can be determined by the direct use of cluster lines, where two cluster lines intersect at the optimum phase forming composition. Furthermore, the alloys on the cluster line in Laves phase-related BCC solid solution alloy systems have larger hydrogen storage capacities.

Line profile studies of hydrodynamical models of cometary compact H II regions

We simulate the evolution of cometary H II regions based on several champagne flow models and bow shock models, and calculate the profiles of the [Ne II] fine-structure line at 12.81 μm, the H30α recombination line and the [Ne III] finestructure line at 15.55 μm for these models at different inclinations of 0°, 30° and 60°. We find that the profiles in the bow shock models are generally different from those in the champagne flow models, but the profiles in the bow shock models with lower stellar velocity （≤ 5 km s^-1） are similar to those in the champagne flow models. In champagne flow models, both the velocity of peak flux and the flux weighted central velocities of all three lines point outward from molecular clouds. In bow shock models, the directions of these velocities depend on the speed of stars. The central velocities of these lines are consistent with the stellar motion in the high stellar speed cases, but they are opposite directions from the stellar motion in the low speed cases. We notice that the line profiles from the slit along the symmetrical axis of the projected 2D image of these models are useful for distinguishing bow shock models from champagne flow models. It is also confirmed by the calculation that the flux weighted central velocity and the line luminosity of the [Ne III] line can be estimated from the [Ne II] line and the H30α line.

Sonar Image Detection Algorithm Based on Two-Phase Manifold Partner Clustering

According to the characteristics of sonar image data with manifold feature,the sonar image detection method based on two-phase manifold partner clustering algorithm is proposed. Firstly,K-means block clustering based on euclidean distance is proposed to reduce the data set. Mean value,standard deviation,and gray minimum value are considered as three features based on the relatinship between clustering model and data structure. Then K-means clustering algorithm based on manifold distance is utilized clustering again on the reduced data set to improve the detection efficiency. In K-means clustering algorithm based on manifold distance,line segment length on the manifold is analyzed,and a new power function line segment length is proposed to decrease the computational complexity. In order to quickly calculate the manifold distance,new allsource shortest path as the pretreatment of efficient algorithm is proposed. Based on this,the spatial feature of the image block is added in the three features to get the final precise partner clustering algorithm. The comparison with the other typical clustering algorithms demonstrates that the proposed algorithm gets good detection result. And it has better adaptability by experiments of the different real sonar images.

Chlorophyll Concentration and Morphological Diversity in Corn Lines at Different Vegetative Stages

The objective of this study was to assess the chlorophyll content of corn lines at different vegetative stages and the diversity between them. The study was conducted in the experimental field of the Roque Institute of Technology (ITR) located in Roque, Celaya, Guanajuato, Mexico. We used 32 corn lines from CIMMYT and four lines from the breeding program of the ITR. The evaluation was conducted in the spring-summer cycle of 2014 at two planting dates. We used a completely randomized block design with three replications. The experimental unit consisted of two rows of five linear meters with a distance of 0.75 meters between rows. Chlorophyll was measured at six different stages: V6, VT, R3, R4, R5 and MF. The agronomic variables recorded were: PH, CH, LAC, LBC, FF, MF, PM, CC, CL, DC, RC, KR and GY. The results of the analysis of variance showed significant differences between lines, dates and their interaction. On average, 18 lines were found with chlorophyll concentrations above 51 SPAD units in the two environments. This indicated that these materials had a high potential for field performance. Using cluster analysis UPGMA method, we identified seven groups for chlorophyll and eight groups for agronomic characteristics for a breeding program. The groups were associated to the homogeneous characteristics of each variable.

Atomic epn(ep) Spin Models and Spectral Lines

We confirmed that how many kinds of epn spins the atoms have by calculating heat capacity of metals according to energy levels in the previous reference. To know more the spin models of epn of hydrogen and helium are imagined and their line spectra are counted. And the explanation of interference is discussed. Gas atoms make line spectra by optical interference. Solid atoms make them by exciting the lowest epns of their cluster first. They all make s, p energy orbit. One axis is composed of two epns. 1s or 2s of atoms except for lithium generally makes the symmetric axis. When each energy level is filled up by epns, these are symmetrically paired first. The atoms which fit the number of line spectra correctly by optical interference are hydrogen and helium. By counting the number of alignments of epns spins within the cluster, the atoms which fit the number of line spectra correctly are lithium, beryllium and phosphorus. The number of line spectra of the rest atoms which we have counted approaches the experimented numbers approximately, not correctly.

Resistance Evaluation to Sheath Blight in Transgenic Rice Lines

Resistance of forty-one homozygous rice lines transformed with chitinase gene (RC24) and β-1,3 -glucanse gene β-1,3-Glu) to sheath blight was analyzed by inoculation. Among different lines, the resistance had significant differences according to the result by cluster analysis. The lines could be categorized into resistant, moderately resistant, moderately susceptible and susceptible types, while 92.1% of which belonging to moderately resistant or moderately susceptible type. For different resistant or susceptible lines, the resistance to rice sheath blight was remarkable correlated with the chitinase activity of transgenic lines except resistant type lines, in which enzyme activity coded by target gene was lower than moderately resistant type. The chitinase activity of transgenic lines tested at different time after inoculation or different organs of the same plant was uniform, which suggested that the expression of chitinase gene was constitutive in nature. Check varieties chitinase activity would change at different time after inoculation and reach a peak at sometime, but it had no difference at various pans of the same plant.

基于稀疏编码的复杂机械振动信号盲分离方法

复杂机械振动信号激励源较多,故源信号之间互为相关源,且较难满足统计独立特性,导致传统盲源分离方法分离效果不佳。对此,提出一种基于信号稀疏编码的机械振动信号盲分离方法。盲源分离的关键在于对混合矩阵的精确估计,然而机械振源中相关成分的存在严重影响混合矩阵的估计。对此,首先对观测信号进行短时傅里叶变换,增加信号稀疏性;然后利用稀疏编码筛选出具备直线聚类特性的时频观测点,利用K均值(K-means)聚类法找到聚类中心;最后利用所提筛选规则找到估计的混合矩阵,重构出源信号。通过对往复压缩机故障数据的分析,验证了所提方法有效性。

Comparisons of Several Similarity Coefficients for Cluster Analysis of Hot Pepper Germplasm Resources

An appropriate genetic similarity coefficient is particularly important for accurately estimating the genetic similarity and phylogenetic relationship between individuals and evaluating the genetic diversity of populations. In this study, five genetic similarity coefficients were compared for analysis of phylogenetic relationship among 31 hot pepper inbred lines based on SRAP. The applicability of different genetic similarity coefficient was investigated by means of SRAP data of hot pepper inbred lines. According to the experimental results, the variation ranges of Nei ＆ Li, Jaceard, Sorensen, Simple matching and Yule coefficients were 0. 598 - 0. 973, 0. 427 - 0. 947, 0. 598 - 0. 973, 0.427 - 0. 947 and 0. 133 - 0. 997, respectively. Results of cluster analysis based on different similarity coefficients varied greatly. To be specific, clustering results based on Nei ＆ Li, Jaccard and Sorensen coefficients were consistent; clustering with Simple matching and Yule coef ficients led to consistent classification of category in different order and slightly different classification of subcategory. Comprehensively comparing the results of cluster analysis and the dendrograms of hot pepper inbred lines, Yule coefficient is suitable for SRAP analysis of hot pepper.

Genetic Diversity among Parents of Hybrid Rice Based on Cluster Analysis of Morphological Traits and Simple Sequence Repeat Markers

The genetic diversity of 41 parental lines popularized in commercial hybrid rice production in China was studied by using cluster analysis of morphological traits and simple sequence repeat （SSR） markers. Forty-one entries were assigned into two clusters （i.e. early or medium-maturing cluster; medium or late-maturing cluster） and further assigned into six sub-clusters based on morphological trait cluster analysis, The early or medium-maturing cluster was composed of 15 maintainer lines, four early-maturing restorer lines and two thermo-sensitive genic male sterile lines, and the medium or late-maturing cluster included 16 restorer lines and 4 medium or late-maturing maintainer lines. Moreover, the SSR cluster analysis classified 41 entries into two groups （i.e, maintainer line group and restorer line group） and seven sub-groups. The maintainer line group consisted of all 19 maintainer lines, two thermo-sensitive genic male sterile lines, while the restorer line group was composed of all 20 restorer lines. The SSR analysis fitted better with the pedigree information. From the views on hybrid rice breeding, the results suggested that SSR analysis might be a better method to study the diversity of parental lines in indica hybrid rice.

High Dimensional Cluster Analysis Using Path Lengths

A hierarchical scheme for clustering data is presented which applies to spaces with a high number of dimensions (). The data set is first reduced to a smaller set of partitions (multi-dimensional bins). Multiple clustering techniques are used, including spectral clustering;however, new techniques are also introduced based on the path length between partitions that are connected to one another. A Line-of-Sight algorithm is also developed for clustering. A test bank of 12 data sets with varying properties is used to expose the strengths and weaknesses of each technique. Finally, a robust clustering technique is discussed based on reaching a consensus among the multiple approaches, overcoming the weaknesses found individually.
