We study the downlink signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) in a multi-tier heterogeneous cellular network under the open and closed access schemes. Each tier is characterized by a base-station (BS) arrangement according to a homogeneous Poisson point process with certain density, constant transmission power and random shadow fading factors with arbitrary distribution. The mobile-station (MS) communicates with the BS that has the maximum instantaneous received power among those to which it is allowed access. The chosen BS provides coverage to the MS if the SIR is above a certain threshold determined by the BS's tier. The coverage probability and average rate expressions are derived for the open access scheme for any arbitrary SIR threshold assigned for each tier, and for the closed access scheme when the SIR thresholds are greater than one.

We propose a density decomposition scheme using a Wang-Govind-Carter- (WGC-) based kinetic energy density functional (KEDF) to accurately and efficiently simulate various covalently bonded molecules and materials within orbital-free (OF) density functional theory (DFT). By using a local, density-dependent scale function, the total density is decomposed into a highly localized density within covalent bond regions and a flattened delocalized density, with the former described by semilocal KEDFs and the latter treated by the WGC KEDF. The new model predicts reasonable equilibrium volumes, bulk moduli, and phase-ordering energies for various semiconductors compared to Kohn-Sham (KS) DFT benchmarks. The decomposition formalism greatly improves numerical stability and accuracy, while retaining computational speed compared to simply applying the original WGC KEDF to covalent materials. The surface energy of Si(100) and various diatomic molecule properties can be stably calculated and also agree well with KSDFT benchmarks. This linear-scaled, computationally efficient, density-partitioned, multi-KEDF scheme opens the door to large-scale simulations of molecules, semiconductors, and insulators with OFDFT.

The scaling properties of the continuous flowing layer in a quasi-2D circular tumbler half filled with a granular material are studied experimentally in the presence of three different interstitial fluids (air, water, and glycerine). In the dry case, the dimensionless flowing layer thickness δ0/d scales with the dimensionless flow rate Qdry*=Q/(dgd), where Q is the flow rate, d is the particle diameter, and g is the acceleration due to gravity, in agreement with previous studies. However, unlike previous studies, we show that the exponent for the power-law relation between the two depends on the range of Qdry*. Meanwhile, the angle of repose increases linearly with Qdry*. In the immersed case, the interstitial fluid changes the relevant time scales, which can be accommodated by considering the fluid properties. The result is that there are two different expressions for the dimensionless flow rate in the immersed flow; one corresponding to a free fall regime for a large Stokes number, and one corresponding to a viscous regime at small Stokes number. On this basis, a single dimensionless flow rate that incorporates both buoyancy and viscous friction is proposed. The effect of side walls is also investigated. For dry flows and those immersed in water, the thickness of the flowing layer decreases while the slope of the free surface increases as the gap separating the walls becomes smaller. For immersed granular flows with glycerine as the interstitial fluid, however, the ratio of the thickness of the flowing layer to the bead diameter is independent of the distance the between the side walls because viscous effects dominate.

We present filling as a type of spatial subdivision problem similar to covering and packing. Filling addresses the optimal placement of overlapping objects lying entirely inside an arbitrary shape so as to cover the most interior volume. In n-dimensional space, if the objects are polydisperse n-balls, we show that solutions correspond to sets of maximal n-balls. For polygons, we provide a heuristic for finding solutions of maximal disks. We consider the properties of ideal distributions of N disks as N→∞. We note an analogy with energy landscapes.

And the 57 Fe M?ssbauer measurements had been carried out in {[N(nC4H9)4][Fe ⅡFe Ⅲ(C2O4)3]}n to investigate the mixed valency character and antiferromagnetic coupling. Some ferrimagnets consisting of magnetic anisotropy ions and two or more types of antiferromagnetically ordered magnetic ions exhibit this behavior. As the temperature was lowered to 40 K, the Fe Ⅲ doublet subspectrum almost completely turns into a sextet subspectrum. The hyperfine magnetic field increases as the temperature decreasing.

In this work, we studied the effect of surface treatment on the aluminium surface and a coupling agent to improve adhesion between aluminium with organic polymer. Thermoplastic natural rubber (TPNR) matrix was prepared by melt blending of natural rubber (NR), liquid natural rubber (LNR) compatibilizer, linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) and polyethylene grafted maleic anhydride (PE-g-MAH). The PEgMAH concentration used was varied from 0% – 25%. In addition, the aluminium surface was pre-treated with 3-glycidoxy propyl trimethoxy silane (3-GPS) to enhance the mechanical properties of laminated composite. It was found that the shear strength of single lap joint Al-TPNR laminated composite showing an increasing trend as a function of PE-g-MAH contents for the 3-GPS surface treated aluminium. Moreover, the scanning electron microscope (SEM) revealed that the strength improvement was associated with the chemical state of the compound involved.

Metabolites can serve as biomarkers and their identification has significant importance in the study of biochemical reaction and signalling networks. Incorporating metabolic and gene expression data to reveal biochemical networks is a considerable challenge, which attracts a lot of attention in recent research. In this paper, we propose a promising approach to identify metabolic biomarkers through integrating available biomedical data and disease-specific gene expression data. A Linear programming (LP) based method is then utilized to determine flux variability intervals, therefore enabling the analysis of significant metabolic reactions. A statistical approach is also presented to uncover these metabolites. The identified metabolites are then verified by comparing with the results in the existing literature. The proposed approach here can also be applied to the discovery of potential novel biomarkers.
