The thermal stabilization process of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) precursor fiber was the key step to prepare high-performance carbon fiber. During the thermal stabilization process, the aggregation structure and the reactivity of molecular chains have significant effects on the microstructures and mechanical properties of carbon fiber. In the present paper, the effects of the orientation structure of PAN precursor fiber on the thermal stabilization reaction and the mechanical properties of carbon fiber were experimentally studied. Using multi-dimensional structural and mechanical properties tests, such as XRD, DSC, 13C NMR and Instron machine testing, the crystalline and skeleton structure, exothermic behavior, and tensile properties of PAN precursor fiber with different orientations in the process of thermal stabilization were characterized to reveal the relationship between microstructure evolution and tensile properties. The results showed that the orientation structure of PAN precursor fiber had an obvious effect on the thermal stabilization process and the tensile stress–strain characteristic. When the heat treatment temperature was lower than 200 °C, the crystallinity and crystallite size of PAN fibers with higher orientation degrees increased significantly. After sufficient thermal stabilization, the original PAN precursor fiber with a higher orientation degree could form more aromatic lamellar structures and showed better regularity. Furthermore, the yield strength and initial modulus of the fibers with a higher orientation degree increased due to the formation of more aromatic rings. The maximum increase in the percentages of yield strength and tensile modulus of the PAN fibers were achieved when the heat-treated temperature was 200 °C, and the percentage values were 138.4% and 158.7% compared to the precursor without heat-treatment. In addition, the elongation at break of the fibers with a higher orientation degree was also relatively larger.

AbstractThe paper analyses the role of control and monitoring of electro-energetic equipment in order to reduce operational costs, increase profits and reduce carbon emissions. The role of SCADA and EcoStruxure Power systems is presented and analysed taking into account the energy consumption and its savings. The paper presents practical and modern solutions to reduce energy consumption by up to 53%, mass by up to 47% and increase the life of the equipment by adjusting the electrical parameters. The Integrated Navigation System has allowed an automatic control and an efficient management. For ships, the implementation of an energy efficiency design index and new technologies was required for the GREEN SHIP project.

Current consumption of cloud computing has attracted more and more attention of scholars. The research on Hadoop as a cloud platform and its energy consumption has also received considerable attention from scholars. This paper presents a method to measure the energy consumption of jobs that run on Hadoop, and this method is used to measure the effectiveness of the implementation of periodic tasks on the platform of Hadoop. Combining with the current mainstream of energy estimate formula to conduct further analysis, this paper has reached a conclusion as how to reduce energy consumption of Hadoop by adjusting the split size or using appropriate size of workers (servers). Finally, experiments show the effectiveness of these methods as being energy-saving strategies and verify the feasibility of the methods for the measurement of periodic tasks at the same time.

Background: Energy Efficient wireless routing has been an area of research particularly to mitigate challenges surrounding performance in category of Wireless Networks. Objectives: The Opportunistic Routing (OR) technique was explored in recent times and exhibits benefits over many existing protocols and can significantly reduce energy consumption during data communication with very limited compromise on performance. Methods : Using broadcasting nature of the wireless medium, OR practices to discourse two foremost issues of variable link quality and unpredictable node agility in constrained WSNs. OR has a potential to reduce delay in order to increase the consistency of data delivery in network. Results : Various OR based routing protocols have shown varying performances. In this paper, a detailed conceptual and experimental analysis is carried out on different protocols that uses OR technique for providing more clear and definitive view on performance parameters like Message Success Rate, Packet Delivery Ratio and Energy Consumption.
