Grid-Enabled Parallel Simulation Based on Parallel Equation Formulation

Bojan Andjelkovic,Vančo B. Litovski,Volker Zerbe 한국전자통신연구원 2010 ETRI Journal Vol.32 No.4

Parallel simulation is an efficient way to cope with long runtimes and high computational requirements in simulations of modern complex integrated electronic circuits and systems. This paper presents an algorithm for parallel simulation based on parallelization in equation formulation and simultaneous calculation of matrix contributions for nonlinear analog elements. In addition, the paper describes the development of a grid interface for a parallel simulator that enables a designer to perform simulations on distant computer clusters. Performances of the developed parallel simulation algorithm are evaluated by simulation of a microelectromechanical system.

Purpose: Online meeting is chosen instead of face-to-face conferences as a solution that ensures both effectiveness and legality during times of strong epidemic outbreaks. In the current period, managers can have different types of meeting options for information distribution. This study has examined the effect of past behavior on the managers’ intention of organizing online meetings. Research design, data and methodology: Data were collected from a survey with 475 managers and put into SmartPLS 4.0 for analysis. Partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was employed to test relationships in the research model. Results: The findings indicated that past behavior plays the most critical role in explaining the organizing online meeting intention of managers, followed by attitude and subjective norms. Meanwhile, the perceived behavioral control factor has absolutely no effect on intention in the context of this study. Notably, attitude and subjective norms also remarkably mediated the impact of past behavior on managers’ intention. Conclusions: This study has added to the understanding of the meeting organization behavior of managers. Even if the epidemic is under control, the administrators should still organize some meetings in the form of online because it will affect the social perceptions of future behavior and behavioral intention.

Atomically thin p–n junctions with van der Waals heterointerfaces

Lee, Chul-Ho,Lee, Gwan-Hyoung,van der Zande, Arend M.,Chen, Wenchao,Li, Yilei,Han, Minyong,Cui, Xu,Arefe, Ghidewon,Nuckolls, Colin,Heinz, Tony F.,Guo, Jing,Hone, James,Kim, Philip Nature Publishing Group, a division of Macmillan P 2014 Nature nanotechnology Vol.9 No.9

Semiconductor p–n junctions are essential building blocks for electronic and optoelectronic devices. In conventional p–n junctions, regions depleted of free charge carriers form on either side of the junction, generating built-in potentials associated with uncompensated dopant atoms. Carrier transport across the junction occurs by diffusion and drift processes influenced by the spatial extent of this depletion region. With the advent of atomically thin van der Waals materials and their heterostructures, it is now possible to realize a p–n junction at the ultimate thickness limit. Van der Waals junctions composed of p- and n-type semiconductors—each just one unit cell thick—are predicted to exhibit completely different charge transport characteristics than bulk heterojunctions. Here, we report the characterization of the electronic and optoelectronic properties of atomically thin p–n heterojunctions fabricated using van der Waals assembly of transition-metal dichalcogenides. We observe gate-tunable diode-like current rectification and a photovoltaic response across the p–n interface. We find that the tunnelling-assisted interlayer recombination of the majority carriers is responsible for the tunability of the electronic and optoelectronic processes. Sandwiching an atomic p–n junction between graphene layers enhances the collection of the photoexcited carriers. The atomically scaled van der Waals p–n heterostructures presented here constitute the ultimate functional unit for nanoscale electronic and optoelectronic devices.

Purpose: Transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) was developed to overcome surgical difficulties experienced in distal pelvic dissection. Concerns have been raised about potential worse postoperative functional outcomes after TaTME. Also, the oncological safety was questioned. This study aimed to describe the functional, surgical, oncological outcomes and quality of life (QoL) after TaTME. Methods: All consecutive TaTME cases for rectal cancer without disseminated disease between December 2016 and April 2019 were included. The Wexner incontinence score, low anterior resection syndrome (LARS) score, fecal incontinence-related QoL, and the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-core questionnaire and 29-item module (EORTC QLQ-C30/CR29) were collected. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to calculate local recurrence-free survival. Results: Thirty patients were eligible for analysis of which 23 received questionnaires. Response rate was 74%. After a median follow-up of respectively 20.0 and 23.0 months for functional and oncological outcomes, the median (interquartile range) of Wexner incontinence and LARS scores were 9.0 (7.0–12.0) and 33.1 (25.0–39.0). Major LARS was present in 73.3%. Fecal incontinence, general and colorectal-specific QoL subdomains that are associated with poor bowel function scored in line with previously reported data. The 2-year actuarial cumulative local recurrence rate was 3.7% (95% confidence interval, 2.4%–5.0%). Conclusion: TaTME may lead to significant functional impairments. Patients should receive preoperative counseling on this topic and be fully aware of the potential consequences of their treatment. Oncological data were in line with other short- to moderate-term data and did not show alarming results.

Van Hoang, Nguyen,Hung, Chu Manh,Hoa, Nguyen Duc,Van Duy, Nguyen,Park, Inkyu,Van Hieu, Nguyen Elsevier Sequoia 2019 Sensors and actuators. B Chemical Vol.282 No.-

<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>Cost-effective fabrication of sensors and detection of ultralow concentrations of toxic gases are important concerns for environmental monitoring. In this study, the reduced graphene oxide (RGO)-loaded ZnFe<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>4</SUB> nanofibers (ZFO-NFs) were fabricated by facile on-chip electrospinning method and subsequent heat treatment. The multi-porous NFs with single-phase cubic spinel structure and typical spider-net morphology were directly assembled on Pt-interdigitated electrodes. The diameters of the RGO-loaded ZFO-NFs were approximately 50–100 nm with many nanograins. The responses to H<SUB>2</SUB>S gas showed a bell-shaped behaviour with respect to RGO contents and annealing temperatures. The optimal values of the RGO contents and the annealing temperatures were found to be about 1.0 wt% and 600 °C, respectively. The response of the RGO-loaded ZnFe<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>4</SUB> NFs to 1 ppm H<SUB>2</SUB>S gas was as high as 147 at 350°C while their cross-gas responses to SO<SUB>2</SUB> (10 ppm), NH<SUB>3</SUB> (100 ppm), H<SUB>2</SUB> (250 ppm), C<SUB>3</SUB>H<SUB>6</SUB>O (1000 ppm), and C<SUB>2</SUB>H<SUB>5</SUB>OH (1000 ppm) were rather low (1.8−5.6). The high sensor response was attributed to formation of a heterojunction between RGO and ZnFe<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>4</SUB> and due to the fact that NFs consisted of many nanograins which resulted in multi-porous structure and formation of potential barriers at grain boundaries.</P> <P><B>Highlights</B></P> <P> <UL> <LI> rGO-loaded ZnFe<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>4</SUB> nanofibers have simply prepared by electrospinning. </LI> <LI> rGO-loaded ZnFe<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>4</SUB> nanofiber sensors can detect H<SUB>2</SUB>S gas down to ppb level. </LI> <LI> The loading rGO can result in an enhancement of H<SUB>2</SUB>S gas ensing performance. </LI> </UL> </P>

Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), transition metal carbides (TMCs), and transition metal oxides (TMOs) have been widely investigated for electrocatalytic applications owing to their abundant active sites, high stability, good conductivity, and various other fascinating properties. Therefore, the synthesis of composites of TMDs, TMCs, and TMOs is a new avenue for the preparation of efficient electrocatalysts. Herein, we propose a novel low-cost and facile method to prepare TMD–TMC–TMO nano-hollow spheres (WS 2 –WC–WO 3 NH) as an efficient catalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The crystallinity, morphology, chemical bonding, and composition of the composite material were comprehensively investigated using X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The results confirmed the successful synthesis of the WS 2 –WC–WO 3 NH spheres. Interestingly, the presence of nitrogen significantly enhanced the electrical conductivity of the hybrid material, facilitating electron transfer during the catalytic process. As a result, the WS 2 –WC–WO 3 NH hybrid exhibited better HER performance than the pure WS 2 nanoflowers, which can be attributed to the synergistic effect of the W–S, W–C, and W–O bonding in the composite. Remarkably, the Tafel slope of the WS 2 –WC–WO 3 NH spheres was 59 mV dec −1 , which is significantly lower than that of the pure WS 2 NFs (82 mV dec −1 ). The results also confirmed the unprecedented stability and superior electrocatalytic performance of the WS 2 –WC–WO 3 NH spheres toward the HER, which opens new avenues for the preparation of low-cost and highly effective materials for energy conversion and storage applications.

A key engine for the growth of the culture industry can be found at the development of specialized strategic products. For Korea’s southwestern coastal area, where Mokpo takes a central position, the possibility of such products may be found from culture-related islands and their marine resources. Among the many candidates, the theme of ocean heroes may be the most powerful asset to increase its cultural competitiveness via its potential for global recognition. In this thesis, I have tried to find new possibilities for the area’s specialized strategic industry by focusing on the Ocean’s Worldwide Heroes Park, an amusement park planned from such a viewpoint. Planned according to the necessity to promote public awareness of the value of ocean, the Ocean’s Worldwide Heroes Park aims to raise a “global workforce” through the discovery of the latent maritime assets in Korea and achieve commercial success as a theme park. What is noteworthy regarding the plan is that the world’s ocean heroes are divided into three categories: (a) the heroes who pioneered the world oceans, (b) the heroes who guarded the oceans during the wars, and (c) the heroes in history and folk tales. Also, the park is divided into six zones each of which offers an opportunity to experience an encounter with ocean heroes of the world. As for the exhibitions and productions, content and stories are regarded as more important than other elements, and ‘imagineering’ more essential than engineering. Considering that the development of content is a crucial factor for the success of the park, I concluded that even the first step of planning should progress side by side with the effort to develop visual content and characters. The development of content focused on the world’s ocean heroes and the local culture of the Korea’s southwestern region could lead to the birth of creative and globally competitive cultural products.
