Abstract: This paper describes results of our study aimed at understanding mechanism (s) of dislocation generation and propagation in multi-crystalline silicon (mc-Si) ingots, and evaluating their influence on the solar cell performance. This work was done in two parts: (i) Measurement of dislocation distributions along various bricks, selected from strategic locations within several ingots; and (ii) Theoretical modeling of the cell performance corresponding to the measured dislocation distributions. Solar cells were fabricated on wafers of known dislocation distribution, and the results were compared with the theory. These results show that cell performance can be accurately predicted from the dislocation distribution, and the changes in the dislocation distribution are the primary cause for variations in the cell-to-cell performance. The dislocation generation and propagation mechanisms, suggested by our results, are described in this paper.

Abstract: Cloud computing has already became one of the most sought-after center topics in the global IT industry, not only IT companies and the famous Internet enterprise, but also in each fields related to computer and the Internet are research and apply the cloud computing. The technology related to Cloud computing has also changed. This paper presents a hybrid P2P network model in the environment of cloud computing, defines the model, research and design the structure of the model, using DHT algorithm located the resource of Hash ring and analyzed the ring node in-and-out in detail. Finally, using the related mathematical theory deduce the performance evaluation results that the model of node can be hierarchical classification, improve the efficiency of information positioning and searching.

Abstract: This paper deals with the numerical solution for radiative heat transfer within a heated six wall surfaces baking oven, baking tin surface and bread surface. The radiation heat transfer model is constructed by adopting a radiation network representation analysis. The analysis applies view factor and radiosity in determining the radiation rates for each surface in the oven. The amount of radiation heat, q and temperature, T variables are equivalent to electric current and voltage, respectively. Finite difference method coupled with Gauss-Seidel iteration was selected to solve the equations involved in the analysis. Even though this method is tedious and intractable for multiple surfaces, but it would seem to be the most accurate and suitable approach for radiation analysis in the enclosure.

Abstract: Understanding and modeling the structure of a complex network can lead to a better knowledge of its evolutionary mechanisms, and to a better cottoning on its dynamic and functional behavior. The nodes within a network not only tend to connect the nodes with high degree (scale-free property), and tend to connect with their relatively close distance nodes (community structure property), and the high-degree nodes are easier to connect with their relatively far nodes comparing with the low-degree nodes in the process of network evolution. This phenomenon has been commonly observed from many real-world networks, ranging from social to biological even to technical networks. To model this kind of networks, the present letter proposes a scale free network model with community structure (SFC) to capture and describe their essential topological properties. Numerical simulations indicate that the generated network based on SFC model has scale-free and community structure property. Under the control of the parameters of the model, the community structure of network can be adjustable.

Abstract: The network model of data collection in public services is different from other Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). The direction of its data transmission is single; and the communication between nodes is not frequent. The amount of data is little and transmission delay is allowed. Based on these special features of the network model in public services, we proposed a wireless-sensor network protocol applied to low-frequency bands. The network simulation software NS-2 is used to simulate and analyze the model

Abstract: The smoke control is of great importance for the life safety of the occupants in the building fire. Many analytical models have been studied for the design of smoke control. The objective of the article is to bring several numerical simulation models about building fire and smoke movement. There are generally three kinds of different models, which are net model, zone model and field model. The characteristics and weak points of each category are discussed, indicating that each model might be applicable to different building fire scenarios.

Abstract: Current project organization is mostly non-professional and low maturity, which lack of mature and visual methods and tools. Engineering project has obvious social characteristics, which includes not only material operating activities also cooperation and collaboration of complex staff a large number of social activities, etc. This paper point out the organization of control of project management into the field of social network analysis(SNA), A qualitative social network model for construction project organization is established, and then this model is quantitatively analyzed with the help of UCINET, which can fully demonstrate the organization and management in the areas of project feasibility.

Abstract: This paper presents the results of drainage capillary pressure and relative permeability measurements made on cores having different bulk volumes ranging from 0.5 to 12 cm3. The aim of the experiments was to provide reliable experimental data which can be used to validate the predictive value of micro-CT based network models for capillary pressure and relative permeability. The micro-CT based network models use realistic networks constructed from the X-ray images of the rock samples having a typical bulk volume of 0.3 cm3. Experimental data for drainage capillary pressure were obtained using the centrifuge technique. The results of the largest cores were verified by the data obtained on the same sample using the porous plate technique. Relative permeability data were obtained by history matching the unsteady state displacement data. Homogeneous model sandstones (Berea and Bentheim) and carbonate (Mt. Gambier) were used in the experiments. Air-brine and oil-brine fluid-systems were used for drainage capillary pressure and relative permeability measurements, respectively. The relative permeability data were compared with those predicted from empirical and geometry based models using capillary pressure data. Good agreement was obtained for the drainage capillary pressure measured on all samples used. The residual saturations obtained from the cores used in the displacement experiments were also in good agreement. The models were found to predict relative permeability of oil and water with varying degrees of success. For water relative permeability, the Pirson model predicts the experimental data successfully while the Corey, Corey-Brooks/Burdine and van Genuchten/Burdine models predict the data of oil relative permeability better than the others. The results demonstrate for the first time that reliable drainage capillary pressure and relative permeability measurements can be made on small model sandstone and carbonate cores of representative scales used in micro-CT-imaging.

Abstract: Advances in micro-CT imaging of porous materials provide the opportunity to extract representative networks from the images. This improves the predictive capability of pore scale network models to predict multiphase flow transport properties. However, all these predictions need to be validated with laboratory experimental data. The experimental data for such validation may either be from the literature or newly conducted laboratory experiments on same outcrops.
This paper presents the review of some of the available Pc – Sw experimental data available in the literature for validating the predictions made by network models.
