Selective Corrosion In Duplex Stainless Steel, Wen-Ta Tsai, Kuen-Ming Tsai, Chang-Jian Lin, Yan Fu May 2003

Selective Corrosion In Duplex Stainless Steel, Wen-Ta Tsai, Kuen-Ming Tsai, Chang-Jian Lin, Yan Fu

Journal of Electrochemistry

In duplex stainless steel, the two constituent phases, namely ferritic (α) and austenitic (γ) phases, have different crystal structure and chemical composition. They may thus exhibit different corrosion resistances in aqueous environment. In this investigation, an electrochemical technique with spatial resolution was employed to measure the potential difference between these two constituent phases in 2205 duplex stainless steel. Image analyzing techniques were also used to examine the preferential corrosion between α and γ phases. The experimental results showed that ferrite had a higher potential than austenite in 0.01 mol/L NaCl solution. In 2 mol/L H2SO4+x mol/L …

Corrosion Behavior Of Reinforcing Steel In Concrete Subjected To Chloride Contamination By Eis, Rong-Gang Hu, Rong-Gui Du, Chang-Jian Lin

Journal of Electrochemistry

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS) was employed to study the influence of chloride on the corrosion behavior of reinforcing steel in concrete. In Nyquist plot, the spectrum consists of two semicircles, indicating that the reinforced concrete system contained two time constants,one derived from electrical double layer of reinforcing steel and the other from the deposition film of concrete layer. The depressed semicircle in lower frequency featured the non-faradic behavior of the electrical double layer (EDL) deviated from idea capacitor due to diffusive effect which was attributed to the surface roughness of rebar and the inhomogenity of concrete layer. Then the EDL was …

Compressed Data Structures For Recursive Flow Classification, Edward W. Spitznagel May 2003

Compressed Data Structures For Recursive Flow Classification, Edward W. Spitznagel

All Computer Science and Engineering Research

High-speed packet classification is crucial to the implementation of several advanced network services and protocols; many QoS implementations, active networking platforms, and security devices (such as firewalls and intrusion-detection systems) require it. But performing classification on multiple fields, at the speed of modern networks, is known to be a difficult problem. The Recursive Flow Classification (RFC) algorithm described by Gupta and McKeown performs classification very quickly, but can require excessive storage when using thousands of rules. This paper studies a compressed representation for the tables used in RFC, trading some memory accesses for space. The compression’s efficiency can be improved …

Evolution Of The Band Structure Of Β-In2 S3−3x O3x Buffer Layer With Its Oxygen Content, N. Barreau, S. Marsillac, J. C. Bernède, L. Assmann

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

The evolution of the band structure of β-In2 S3−3x O3x (BISO) thin films grown by physical vapor deposition, with composition x, is investigated using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. It is shown that the energy difference between the valence-band level and the Fermi level remains nearly constant as the optical band gap of the films increases. As a consequence, the difference between the conduction band level and the Fermi level increases as much as the optical band gap of the films. The calculation of the electronic affinity [ ] of the BISO thin films shows that it decreases linearly from 4.65 …

Optimal Beam Splitters For The Division-Of-Amplitude Photopolarimeter, R. M.A. Azzam, A. De

Electrical Engineering Faculty Publications

Optimal optical parameters of the beam splitter that is used in the division-of-amplitude photopolarimeter are determined. These are (1) 50%–50% split ratio of the all-dielectric beam splitter, (2) differential phase shifts in reflection and transmission Δr and Δt that differ by ±π/2, and (3) ellipsometric parameters (ψr, ψt)= (27.368°, 62.632°) or (62.632°, 27.368°). It is also shown that for any nonabsorbing beam splitter that splits incident unpolarized light equally, the relationship ψr+ψt=π/2 is always satisfied.

A Performance-Driven Framework For Customizing Csp Middleware Support, Guoliang Xing Apr 2003

A Performance-Driven Framework For Customizing Csp Middleware Support, Guoliang Xing

All Computer Science and Engineering Research

A Distributed Constraint Satisfaction Problem (DCSP) aims to find consistent assignments of values to a set of variables distributed on multiple nodes. Despite its simple definition, DCSPs can model a broad variety of traditional artificial intelligence problems. Furthermore, many problems found in emerging sensor-actuator networks can be formalized to DCSPs. However, due to the platform limitations of networked embedded systems such as sensor-actuators networks, building real-world applications for solving DCSPs not only requires the improved DCSP algorithms but also novel system approaches. This thesis first develops a performance-driven middleware framework for solving DCSP problems. Then the prototype system built with …

Using Contaminated Garbage Collection And Reference Counting Garbage Collection To Provide Automatic Storage Reclamation For Real-Time Systems, Matthew P. Hampton Apr 2003

Using Contaminated Garbage Collection And Reference Counting Garbage Collection To Provide Automatic Storage Reclamation For Real-Time Systems, Matthew P. Hampton

All Computer Science and Engineering Research

Language support of dynamic storage management simplifies the application programming task immensely. As a result, dynamic storage allocation and garbage collection have become common in general purpose computing. Garbage collection research has led to the development of algorithms for locating program memory that is no longer in use and returning the unused memory to the run-time system for late use by the program. While many programming languages have adopted automatic memory reclamation features, this has not been the trend in Real-Time systems. Many garbage collection methods involve some form of marking the objects in memory. This marking requires time proportional …

Specialized Hardware Support For Dynamic Storage Allocation, Steven M. Donahue Apr 2003

Specialized Hardware Support For Dynamic Storage Allocation, Steven M. Donahue

All Computer Science and Engineering Research

With the advent of operating systems and programming languages that can evaluate and guarantee real-time specifications, applications with real-time requirements can be authored in higher-level languages. For example, a version of Java suitable for real-time (RTSJ) has recently reached the status of a reference implementation, and it is likely that other implementations will follow. Analysis to show the feasibility of a given set of tasks must take into account their worst-case execution time, including any storage allocation or deallocation associated with those tasks. In this thesis, we present a hardware-based solution to the problem of storage allocation and (explicit) deallocation …

Dynamic Assignment Of Scoped Memory Regions In The Translation Of Java To Real-Time Java, Morgan G. Deters Apr 2003

Dynamic Assignment Of Scoped Memory Regions In The Translation Of Java To Real-Time Java, Morgan G. Deters

All Computer Science and Engineering Research

Advances in middleware, operating systems, and popular, general-purpose languages have brought the ideal of reasonably-bound execution time closer to developers who need such assurances for real-time and embedded systems applications. Extensions to the Java libraries and virtual machine have been proposed in a real-time Java standard, which provides for specification of release times, execution costs, and deadlines for a restricted class of threads. To use such features, the programmer is required to use unwieldy code constructs to create region-like areas of storage, associate them with execution scopes, and allocate objects from them. Further, the developer must ensure that they do …

Hashtables For Real-Time And Embedded Systems, Anand Krishnan

All Computer Science and Engineering Research

Real-time are beginning to appear in advanced, high-level programming languages such as Java. When complemented by a real-time operating system, the Real-Time Specification for Java (RTSJ) offers strong execution constraints for applications developed in Java. While the RTSJ make the basic services of Java such as storage and thread management ready for many real-time applications, the collection objects, and the rest of the application run-time library, cannot be used by RTSJ applications until their run-time properties are examined and modified as necessary to make them suitable for use by real-time applications. In this work, we examine the Hashtable collection facility …

Multiflow Tcp, Udp, Ip, And Atm Traffic Generation Module, Eliot I. Sinclair, John W. Lockwood

All Computer Science and Engineering Research

Networking devices must be capable of processing traffic flows from multiple sources. In order to verify that such devices operates properly, a network testbench can be used to inject traffic into the device. The specification of the traffic flows can be difficult. At the low level, there are header fields, data checksums, and packet length fields that all must be formatted correctly. Further, there can be multiple flows of traffic that will arrive simultaneously. It is desirable to specify traffic at a high level of abstraction. A software program can then be written to parse the specification and generate the …

Integrated Coverage And Connectivity Configuration In Wireless Sensor Networks, Xiaorui Wang, Guoliang Xing, Yuanfang Zhang, Chenyang Lu, Robert Pless, Christopher Gill

All Computer Science and Engineering Research

An effective approach for energy conservation in wireless sensor networks is scheduling sleep intervals for extraneous nodes, while the remaining nodes stay active to provide continuous service. For the sensor network to operate successfully, the active nodes must maintain both sensing coverage and network connectivity. Furthermore, the network must be able to configure itself to any feasible degrees of coverage and connectivity in order to support different applications and environments with diverse requirements. This paper presents the design and analysis of novel protocols that can dynamically configure a network to achieve guaranteed degrees of coverage and connectivity. This work differs …
