Pedestrian lane formation with following–overtaking model and measurement of system order

Pedestrian self-organizing movement plays a significant role in evacuation studies and architectural design.Lane formation,a typical self-organizing phenomenon,helps pedestrian system to become more orderly,the majority of following behavior model and overtaking behavior model are imprecise and unrealistic compared with pedestrian movement in the real world.In this study,a pedestrian dynamic model considering detailed modelling of the following behavior and overtaking behavior is constructed,and a method of measuring the lane formation and pedestrian system order based on information entropy is proposed.Simulation and analysis demonstrate that the following and avoidance behaviors are important factors of lane formation.A high tendency of following results in good lane formation.Both non-selective following behavior and aggressive overtaking behavior cause the system order to decrease.The most orderly following strategy for a pedestrian is to overtake the former pedestrian whose speed is lower than approximately 70%of his own.The influence of the obstacle layout on pedestrian lane and egress efficiency is also studied with this model.The presence of a small obstacle does not obstruct the walking of pedestrians;in contrast,it may help to improve the egress efficiency by guiding the pedestrian flow and mitigating the reduction of pedestrian system orderliness.

EFFECT OF Si CONTENT ON ORDERING DEGREE AND ELECTROMAGNETIC CHARACTERISTICS IN FeSiAl ALLOYS

FeSiAl alloys ribbons synthesized by melt-quench were annealed in vacuum at 873 K for 60 rain. The flaky powders were prepared by milling the annealed ribbons for 70 h. After milling, the powders were heat treated at 573 K for 90 rain. The ordering degree of the powders lattice structure was analyzed by X-ray diffraction （XRD）. The measurement of specific saturation magnetization was carried out by vibrating samples magnetometer （VSM）. Complex permittivity and complex permeability in the frequency band of 0.5-18 GHz were measured with the vector network analyzer. The ordering degree of the superlattice structure increased from 0.2＇7 to 0.49. Complex permittivity and complex permeability decreased with increasing Si content. After ordering, the specific saturation magnetization decreased from 134.2 to 85.0 A.m2.kg-1. For use in anti-EMI material, the total contents of Si and Al in FeSiAl alloys should be controlled at a low level.

INFLUENCE OF GRAIN SIZE AND ORDERING DEGREE OF PARENT PHASE ON SME IN A CuZnAl ALLOY CONTAINING BORON

The influence of grain size and ordering degree of the parent phase on the shape memory re- covery in a Cu-25.62Zn-3.97Al-0.0018B(wt-%)memory alloy is investigated.A mathematical relationship is set up between the recovery ratio and ordering degree,probabili- ty of atoms at their ordered sites,grain size,the thickness of the grain boundary affected re- gions,the stress during deformation,as well as the critical shear stress.Shape memory effect reaches a maximum with varying grain size and increases linearly with increasing ordering parameter,which agrees well with experimental results.

Temperature-dependent Gilbert damping in Co2 FeAl thin films with different B2 ordering degrees

The temperature-dependent Gilbert damping in Co2FeAl thin film grown on a Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-30%PbTiO3 substrate is investigated by the systematic measurement of physical property measurement system(PPMS) on a series of samples with different substrate temperatures. Varying the substrate temperatures from 350℃ to 500℃, the B2 ordering degrees of Co2FeAl thin films increase, which can lead the Gilbert damping to decrease, indicated by the field-sweep in-plane PPMS measurements. In addition, the measurement result of PPMS demonstrates that the Gilbert damping decreases first with measurement temperature decreasing down to about 150 K, then increases at a measurement temperature of ~ 50 K, and decreases again with the measurement temperature decreasing. There are two independent damping manners, namely bulk damping and surface damping, which contribute to the Gilbert damping. Moreover, the observed peak of Gilbert damping at ~ 50 K can be attributed to the spin re-orientation transition at the Co2FeAl surface, which is similar to the result of the effective magnetization as a function of measurement temperature. The result presents the evidence for further studying the Gilbert damping in Co2FeAl thin film.

MULTIPLE ATTRIBUTE NETWORK SELECTION ALGORITHM BASED ON AHP AND SYNERGETIC THEORY FOR HETEROGENEOUS WIRELESS NETWORKS

It is a hot issue in communication research field to select the best network for Heterogeneous Wireless Networks(HWNs),and it is also a difficult problem to reduce the handoff number of vertical handoff.In order to solve this problem,the paper proposes a multiple attribute network selection algorithm based on Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP)and synergetic theory.The algorithm applies synergetics to network selection,considering the candidate network as a compound system composed of multiple attribute subsystems,and combines the subsystem order degree with AHP weight to obtain entropy of the compound system,which is opposite the synergy degree of a network system.The greater the synergy degree,the better the network performance.The algorithm takes not only the coordination of objective attributes but also Quality of Service(QoS)requirements into consideration,ensuring that users select the network with overall good performance.The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively reduce the handoff number and provide uses with satisfactory QoS according to different services.

Controlled WS_(2) crystallinity effectively dominating sodium storage performance

WS2 exhibits tremendous potentials for Na-ions storage owing to high capacity(433 mAh g^(-1)). Nevertheless, WS2 layered structure is often exfoliated with rapid capacity decay and sluggish reaction kinetics.In this work, WS2 nanosheets with different crystallinities are controlled by different synthesis methods.The high crystallinity WS2 exhibits high degree of interlayer order and strong interlayer force. It exhibits superior electrochemical properties, at the current density of 200 mA g^(-1) after 300 cycles with reversible capacity of 471 mAh g^(-1). Even at 5.0 A g^(-1), the capacities can still arrive at 240 mAh g^(-1) after 250 cycles, exhibiting stable cycling performance. Further electrochemical research finds that the high degree of interlayer order of layered WS2 structure can perform highly conducive Na+insertion/extraction with greatly improved contribution of intercalation capacity. Moreover, the strong interlayer force can effectively restrain the exfoliating of the WS2 nanosheets, guaranteeing the stability of the structure. Combining the above result reveals that controlling the order and force of the interlayer is an effective way to enhance the electrochemical properties of WS2 as SIBs anode materials. This work can provide new insight for inhibiting the exfoliation of layered compounds to pursue excellent electrochemical performance in Na-ion storage systems.

Effect of Dy on Structure and Magnetic Properties of CoPt Alloys

The effects of Dy on the microstructure and magnetic properties of DyxCo50-xPt50 alloys were investigated. The XRD results indicate that all the alloys homogenized at 1000 ℃ contain only a single A 1 （fcc） phase, while the alloys annealed at 675℃ consist of a hard-magnetic face-eentered-tetragonal （fct） phase and a magnetically soft face-centered-cube （fcc） phase. Maximum values for the coercivity and remanence ratio mr were achieved in DY0.4Co49.6Pt50 alloys annealed at 675 ℃ for 80 min. For the series of Dy Co50-xPt50 alloys annealed at 675 ℃ for 60 min, H decreases monotonically with increasing Dy concentration, but mr is first enhanced and then weakened,

NANOCRYSTALLINE STRUCTURE AND INITIAL PERMEABILITY OF ANNEALED Fe73．5Cu1W3Si13．5B9 Alloy

The nanocrystalline structure of annealed Fe73.5 Cu1 W3Si13.5B9 alloy has been investigated by using the XRD and the TEM methods. The relation between the initial permeability and the microstructure of the annealed alloy has been discussed. The crystalline phase in annealed Fe73.5 Cu1 W3Si13.5B9 alloy is the α-Fe(Si) phase with DO3 superstructure. The volume fraction, Si content and degree of order of the αFe(Si) phase increase with increasing annealing temperature. In the temperature range of 490-570℃, the α-Fe(Si) phase has a size of 13 nm, and its grain number increases as the annealing temperature is increased. The DO3 ordered region in the α-Fe(Si) grain is spherical approximately, and its size increases as the annealing temperature increases. The size of the DO3 ordered region is 12.8 nm at the temperature of 570℃,which is close to that of the α-Fe(Si) grain. There is obvious change in the structure of the residual amorphous phase during annealing, and the nearest atomic distance and the short-range order of residual amorphous phase reach maximum and minimum at 530℃, respectively. The initial permeability of annealed Fe73.5 Cu1 W3Si13.5 B9 alloy is not only dependent on the size, volume fraction and Si content of the α-Fe(Si) phase but also related to the structure state of the residual amorphous phase.

On Second Order Degree of Graphs

Given a vertex v of a graph G the second order degree of v denoted as d2（v） is defined as the number of vertices at distance 2 from v. In this paper we address the following question： What axe the sufficient conditions for a graph to have a vertex v such that d2（v） ≥ d（v）, where d（v） denotes the degree of v？ Among other results, every graph of minimum degree exactly 2, except four graphs, is shown to have a vertex of second order degree as large as its own degree. Moreover, every K4^--free graph or every maximal planar graph is shown to have a vertex v such that d2（v） ≥ d（v）. Other sufficient conditions on graphs for guaranteeing this property axe also proved.

EFFECTS OF ORDERING DOMAIN STRUCTURE ON DIELECTRIC PROPERTIES OF DOUBLE PEROVSKITE La_(2)NiMnO_(6)

Two sets of La_(2)NiMnO_(6)ceramics with different B-site ordering degree were prepared and evaluated.The valence states of Ni^(2+)and Mn^(4+)were con-rmed,and the B-site ordering degree was estimated qualitatively using magnetic and Raman analysis.The ordering of Ni^(2+)and Mn^(4+)was the primary origin for the relaxor-like behavior of the present ceramics.The ordering degree of B-site ions greatly affected the dielectric properties,i.e.,more ordered sample indicated higher dielectric constant.Meanwhile,the grain boundary layer capacitor(GBLC)effect was also activated but limited at the high temperatures and low frequencies.
