In this paper, a new polishing head with the variable pressure structure was studied to improve the planarization uniformity of the conventional template-metal head. Metal surface waviness and slurry distribution on the pad have been known to affect the polishing uniformity even in the synchronized quill and platen velocities. A polishing head with silicon rubber sheet was used to get a curved pressure distribution. In the experiment, the vertical deflection behavior on the pad was characterized with back pressure in the air chamber. Quill force increased linearly with backpressure. However, backpressure under a quill force made the upward movements of the quill. In the wafer polishing experiments, polishing rate and polishing thickness distribution were severely changed with backpressure. The best uniformity was observed with the standard deviation off.5％ level of average polishing removal 215nm at backpressure 12.1kPa.

To reduce backpressure for improving engine power in exhaust system, a large difference of pressure is required, but this is in conflict with the requirement for reducing exhaust noise that needs a small pressure difference. In this paper, the controllable muffler designed by simplifying the structure of the exhaust system has a low backpressure and a proper sound specification to the rotation of engine. The exhaust system in conventional studies has been designed to have maximum noise reduction over the whole driving domain, but due to its complex structure this led to increased backpressure. If the muffler is designed according to the driving frequency, which is a dominant noise component in stationary driving speed, the backpressure is reduced due to the simplified structure of the muffler. Furthermore, a multi-mode muffler able to change structure with varied driving speed was designed.

Backpressure based scheduling has been considered as a promising technique for improving the throughput of a wide range of communication networks. However, this scheduling technique has not been well studied for heterogeneous wireless networks. In this paper, we propose a virtual-queue based backpressure scheduling (VQB) algorithm for heterogeneous multi-hop wireless networks. The VQB algorithm introduces a simple virtual queue for each flow at a node for backpressure scheduling, whose length depends on the cache size of the node. When calculating flow weights and making scheduling decisions, the length of a virtual queue is used instead of the length of a real queue. We theoretically prove that VQB is throughput-optimal. Simulation results show that the VQB algorithm significantly outperforms a classical backpressure scheduling algorithm in heterogeneous multi-hop wireless networks in terms of the packet delivery ratio, packet delivery time, and average sum of the queue lengths of all nodes per timeslot.

An input-output buffering switch operates in either of tow different cell loss modes; Backpressure mode and Queueloss mode. In the previous studies, the Backpressrue mode is more effective at low traffic loads, and the Queueloss mode performs better at high traffic. We propose a new operation mode, called Hybrid mode, which adopts the advantages of he Backpressure and the Queueloss mode. Backpressure and Queueloss modes are distinguished from whether a cell loss occurs at the output buffer or not when output buffer overflows, irrespective of input buffer status. In order to simply combine Backpressure and Queueloss mode, the change of input traffic load must be measured. However, in the Hybrid mode, simply both of the input and output buffer overflow and checked out to determine the cell discard. The performance of the Hybrid mode is compared with those of the Backpressure and the Queueloss mode under random and bursty traffic. This paper show that the Hybrid mode always gives the best performance results for most ranges of load values.

입력과 출력에 버퍼를 갖는 ATM 교환기의 셀 폐기 방법은 기존의 귀환(Backpressure)모드와 손실(Queueloss)모드가 있으며, 최근에는 두 모드의 단점을 보완한 하이브리드(Hybrid)모드가 제안되었다. 하이브리드모드는 목적하는 출력 버퍼와 입력 버퍼가 모두 포화일 경우에만 셀을 폐기하는 방식이다. 본 논문에서는 유니폼 트래픽하에서 Output-port expansion 기법을 사용한 귀환 손실 모드 및 하이브리드모드 하에서의 셀 손실률과 셀 지연을 성능 비교 분석한다 Output-port expansion 기법은, 한 타임 슬롯동안에 입력포트 당 하나의 셀만 교환되며, 만약 하나 이상의 셀들이 같은 출력포트로 향하고자 하면, 최대 교환되는 셀 수를 K(Output-port expansion ratio)개로 제한하는 방식이다. 셀 손실률을 비교 분석한 결과, 이전의 연구에서와는 달리 로드 0.9를 기점으로. 0.9이하의 로드에서는 하이브리드 모드가, 0.9 이상의 로드에서는 손실모드가 가장 낮은 셀 손실률을 보인다. 셀 지연을 비교 분석한 결과, 한 개의 교환기 성능 분석에서는 셀 손실로 인한 재전송(retransmission)을 고려하지 않는 관계로, 예상한 바와 같이, 로드가 많아질수록 셀 손실률이 높은 귀환모드가 K를 높일수록 다른 모드에 비해 낮은 셀 지연을 보였다.

The document "Understanding the Relationship Between Particle Size, Performance, and Pressure" explores the impact of particle size on chromatographic performance and system pressure. The study highlights how smaller particles can improve separation efficiency by providing higher resolution and faster analysis times. However, this comes at the cost of increased backpressure, which can challenge the system's hardware and require higher operating pressures. The document discusses the balance needed between particle size, column dimensions, and system pressure to optimize performance without exceeding the pressure limits of chromatographic systems. It outlines the advantages of using superficially porous particles (SPPs) over fully porous particles (FPPs) in achieving high efficiency with lower backpressure. The study also emphasizes the importance of selecting appropriate column dimensions and flow rates to manage system pressure while maintaining optimal performance. In conclusion, understanding the interplay between particle size, performance, and pressure is crucial for optimizing chromatographic separations, ensuring system longevity, and achieving high-quality analytical results.

This study focuses on the performance characteristics of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) using the AC impedance technique. The experiment was carried out to investigate the optimal operating conditions of PEMFC such as cell temperature, flow rate, humidified temperature and back-pressure. The fuel cell performance was analyzed by DC electronic-loader with constant voltage mode and expressed by voltage-current density. Additionally, AC impedance was measured to analysis of ohmic and activation loss and expressed by Nyquist plot. The results showed that the cell performance increased with increase of cell temperature, air flow rate, humidified temperature and backpressure. Also, the activation loss decreased as the increase of cell temperature, air flow rate, humidified temperature and backpressure.

The low-cost, simple structured micropump which is actuated by piezoelectric-discs, is fabricated with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and the performances of the micropump, such as pump rate and backpressure, are characterized. The PDMS micropump with diffusers instead of passive check valves as a flow-rectifying element was fabricated. The deflection of glass diaphragm measured by atomic force microscope (AFM) is about 0.4$\mu\textrm{m}$ when applying a 150V square wave voltage at 300Hz across a 300${\mu}\ell$ thick piezoelectric disc. While the square wave driving voltage is applied to the piezoelectric disc of the actuator, the flow rate is measured by fluid displacement variation of the outlet tube. The flow rate of micropump increases with enhancing the applied voltage due to the increase of diaphragm deflection. The flow rate and the backpressure of the micropump with diffusers are about 32.9${\mu}\ell$/min and 173Pa respectively for the above mentioned deflection conditions.
