Using of finite element method for solving problems of the resistance of materials
In this article we consider the using of finite element method for solving problems of the resistance of materials and compare results solved different methods: analytic solution, hand-calculation solution by finite element method and solution in ANSYS
System-issues of development of hotel business
The development of a hotel business development strategy should include the following methodological approaches to the sequence of execution of works: the definition of goals and objectives for gaining strategic positions in the market, achieving the necessary technical level and product quality, increasing the efficiency of service delivery; determining the real possibilities of the hotel company for the implementation of the stated goals and objectives; justification of the development strategy, that is, the development of long-term and current measures of economic and financial development of the hotel company in order to provide the above-mentioned tasks; estimation of probable results; the development and adoption of corrective measures to achieve the planned results activity of hotel enterprise.So in deciding to optimize the development of the hotel business, it is necessary to determine the ways of its implementation, that is, to choose the appropriate strategy of activity
Retention of arsenic and selenium compounds present in coal combustion and gasification flue gases using activated carbons
7 pages, 7 figures, 6 tables.-- Printed version published Aug 2007.The emission of potentially toxic compounds of arsenic and selenium present in flue gases from coal combustion and gasification processes has led to the need for gas cleaning systems capable of reducing their content. This work is focused on the capture of these elements in activated carbons which have proven to have good retention capacities for mercury compounds in gas phase. Two commercial activated carbons (Norit RBHG3 and Norit RB3) and a carbon prepared via activation of a pyrolysed coal (CA) were tested in simulated coal combustion and gasification atmospheres in a laboratory scale reactor. Arsenic and selenium compounds were retained to different extents on these carbons, retention efficiency depending mainly on the speciation of the element, which in turn depends on the gas atmosphere. Arsenic retention was similar in both combustion and gasification atmospheres unlike selenium retention. Moreover the retention of arsenic was lower than that of selenium.This work was carried out with the financial support of ECSC (7220-ED/095). We are also grateful to our colleagues in ICB (CSIC) R. Juan and C. Ruiz who prepared the CA activated carbon and Amelia Martínez Alonso of INCAR who assisted us in the textural characterization.Peer reviewe
Runtime Construction of Large-Scale Spiking Neuronal Network Models on GPU Devices
Simulation speed matters for neuroscientific research: this includes not only how quickly the simulated model time of a large-scale spiking neuronal network progresses but also how long it takes to instantiate the network model in computer memory. On the hardware side, acceleration via highly parallel GPUs is being increasingly utilized. On the software side, code generation approaches ensure highly optimized code at the expense of repeated code regeneration and recompilation after modifications to the network model. Aiming for a greater flexibility with respect to iterative model changes, here we propose a new method for creating network connections interactively, dynamically, and directly in GPU memory through a set of commonly used high-level connection rules. We validate the simulation performance with both consumer and data center GPUs on two neuroscientifically relevant models: a cortical microcircuit of about 77,000 leaky-integrate-and-fire neuron models and 300 million static synapses, and a two-population network recurrently connected using a variety of connection rules. With our proposed ad hoc network instantiation, both network construction and simulation times are comparable or shorter than those obtained with other state-of-the-art simulation technologies while still meeting the flexibility demands of explorative network modeling
