Performance Analyses and Improvements for IEEE 802.15.4 CSMA/CA Scheme in Wireless Multihop Sensor Networks Based on HTC Algorithm by Jianping Zhu, Chunfeng Lv, Zhengsu Tao

“…At first, a novel Hidden Terminal Couple (HTC) algorithm is proposed to avoid the impacts of hidden terminals, and a parallel access scheme is proposed to dispense with taking the routing overhead into account. Along with these two strategies, the accurate statistical performance metrics of throughput and delay of unsaturated, unacknowledged IEEE 802.15.4 beacon-enabled networks for 1-hop and 2-hop scenarios are then predicted based on the models which contains n modified semi-Markov chains and one macro-Markov chain, in which nodes are assumed to locate randomly over a circle plane according to Poisson distribution. …”

Reverse Design of Cycloid Tooth Profile Without Trapped Oil and Implementation Measures of Low Flow Ripple for Gear Pump by Yuncai Xia, Haibin Hao, Yin Mao

“…In order to solve the two structural problems of trapped oil and large flow ripple in gear pump and based on transmission advantages of cycloid gear and its forming principle，tooth number and radius factor of rolling circle which can best reflect pump performance are taken as structural parameters of cycloidal tooth profile，central angle，radius factor and pressure angle of addendum arc functional parameters of gear pump，a cycloid tooth profile with a contact ratio of 1 is constructed in a reverse way and the structural problem of large flow ripple of original single gear pair is solved by the construction of double gear pairs and minimization of ripple coefficient. …”

Stability of Close Chambers Surrounding Rock in Deep and Comprehensive Control Technology by Weijian Yu, Fangfang Liu

“…The numerical simulation results show that the surrounding rock deformation of the chamber and roadway reduced with the revised support program, which the expansion of the rock mass loose circle prevented effectively. The site test shows that the convergence rate of surrounding rock with the improved support was less than 0.2 mm/d, and the rock deformation of chamber and roadway suppressed significantly.…”

Gamified Virtual Reality Training for Visuospatial Ability in Neuroradiology by Allgaier Mareen, Jered Härtel Tim, Zubel Seraphine, Thormann Maximilian, Behme Daniel, Preim Bernhard, Saalfeld Sylvia

“…During neuroradiological interventions such as treating intracranial aneurysms, neuroradiologists have to navigate a catheter in the 3D anatomy while watching a 2D projection of the vessels. To train this visuospatial ability, we present a virtual reality application where the user has to identify anatomically relevant positions on the Circle of Willis based on a 2D projection image. …”
