We present spin Hall magnetoresistance (SMR) studies on a b-plate (acplane) of crystalline Ho 0.5 Dy 0.5 FeO 3 |Pt hybrid at various T in the range, 11 to 300 K. In the room temperature Γ4(Gx, Ay, Fz) phase, the switching between two degenerate domains, Γ4(+Gx, +Fz) and Γ4(−Gx, −Fz) occurs at fields above a critical value, Hc ≈ 713 Oe. Under H > Hc, the angular dependence of SMR (α-scan) in the Γ4(Gx, Ay, Fz) phase yielded a highly skewed curve with a sharp change (sign-reversal) along with a rotational hysteresis around a-axis. This hysteresis decreases with an increase in H. Notably, at H < Hc, the α-scan measurements on the single domain, Γ4(±Gx, ±Fz) exhibited an anomalous sinusoidal signal of periodicity 360 deg. Low-T SMR curves (H = 2.4 kOe), showed a systematic narrowing of the hysteresis (down to 150 K) and a gradual reduction in the skewness (150 to 52 K), suggesting weakening of the anisotropy possibly due to the T-evolution of Fe-RE exchange coupling. Below 25 K, the SMR modulation showed an abrupt change around the c-axis, marking the presence of Γ2(Fx, Cy, Gz) phase. We have employed a simple Hamiltonian and computed SMR to examine the observed skewed SMR modulation. In summary, SMR is found to be an effective tool to probe magnetic anisotropy as well as a spin reorientation in Ho 0.5 Dy 0.5 FeO 3. Our spin-transport study highlights the potential of Ho 0.5 Dy 0.5 FeO 3 for future AFM spintronic devices.

While physics-based hydrodynamic modeling is a fundamental approach, improving the forecast accuracy remains critical. In recent years, machine learning (ML) has quickly emerged in geoscience applications, but its application to the Great Lakes hydrodynamic prediction is still in its early stages. This work is the first one to explore a deep learning approach to predicting spatiotemporal distributions of the lake surface temperature (LST) in the Great Lakes. Our study shows that the Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural network, trained with the limited data from hypothetical monitoring networks, can provide consistent and robust performance. The LSTM prediction captured the LST spatiotemporal variabilities across the five Great Lakes well, suggesting an effective and efficient way for monitoring network design in assisting the ML-b...

Low temperature giant magnetocaloric effect in multiferroic GdMnO3single crystals

GdMnO3 exhibits a giant MC effect (isothermal change in magnetic entropy (−ΔSM) ~ 31 J (kg K)−1 at 7 K and adiabatic change in temperature ~10 K at 19 K for magnetic field variation 0-80 kOe). Complex interactions between 3d and 4f magnetic sublattices influence MC properties. The rare-earth antiferromagnetic ordering induces an inverse MC effect (positive ΔSM) along &#39;a&#39; and &#39;c&#39; axes whereas it&#39;s not seen along the &#39;b&#39; axis, revealing complex anisotropic magnetic ordering. The antiferromagnetic ordering possibly changes to ferromagnetic ordering at higher fields.

In this paper, we address a humancentric data fusion problem in VCPS. To the best of our knowledge, this work is the first to apply HF to the data fusion problem, which has both theoretical value and practical implications. In particular, we present a new architecture by defining a distinct High-Level (HL) data fusion layer with HF considerations, that is placed between the safety applications on the VCPS and the human driver. A data fusion algorithm is proposed to fuse multiple messages (based on reaction time, message type, preferred evasive actions, severity of the hazards, etc) and to maximize the total utility of the messages. The algorithm is tested with real human drivers to demonstrate the potential benefit of incorporating such human-centric fusion in existing warning systems.

Given the trans-disciplinary nature of TCPS, various simulation models and frameworks have been proposed in civil engineering, computer science, and related fields. Traditionally, researchers in different areas have developed their own set of simulation tools, which provide limited capability for TCPS research. In recent years, we are witnessing a growing interest of combining two or more features of traditional simulators in order to capture the unique characteristics of TCPS. In this paper, we describe several mainstream simulation models used in transportation, communication and human factor studies in TCPS research. Moreover, we present our unique design and implementation of an Integrated Traffic Driving Network Simulator (ITDNS). Finally, we discuss future enhancements that will promote best simulation practices for TCPS research.

Different from most existing works on VANETs which only focused on a single technical area, this work on OAD invol ves technical elements from human factors, cyber systems and trans portati on systems since a commuter's shopping decision depends on e.g. the attracti veness of the ads, the induced detour, and traffic condi tions on different routes. In this paper, we address a new optimizati on problem in OAD whose goal is to schedule ad messages and allocate a li mited amount of AP bandwi dth so as to maxi mize the system-wi de performance in terms of total realized utilities (TRU) of the deli vered ads. A number of efficient heuristics are proposed to deal with ad message scheduling and AP bandwi dth allocation. Besides largescale simulations, we also present a case study i n a more realistic scenario utilizing real traces collected from taxis in the ci ty of Shanghai. In additi on, we use a commercial traffic simul ator (PARAMICS) to show that our proposed solutions are also useful for traffic management in terms of bal ancing vehicul ar traffic and allevi ating congestion.

CTS aim to provide advanced applications that improve road safety, traffic efficiency and sustainability of transport networks: Wireless communications allow vehicles and infrastructure to collaborate, and "Big Data" make it possible to monitor and predict the states of the systems. Subsequently, we could improve the control and management actions. This talk provides two examples of emerging applications in CTS. The first example explores the opportunity for cooperative vehicle and intersection control to contribute to a more sustainable transportation system. The second example proposes a new rideshare scheme for electric taxi fleet. I will also introduce our design and development of an integrated-traffic-driving-networking simulator (ITDNS). Such an ITDNS is not only useful for evaluating the proposed CTS applications that require simulation models from multiple disciplines, but also is an essential tool for studying human factor issues in the design, evaluation and optimization of other advanced CTS applications. Finally, I will conclude this talk with our ongoing project on vehicular sensing (i.e., using drivers' smart phone to collect data) and its future extensions.

Specifically, the work is developing an integrated traffic-driving-networking simulator (ITDNS), which allows for human-in-the-loop testing of Connected Vehicle (CV) and Automated Vehicle (AV) applications and their interactions. Following a brief discussion of ITDNS, its design rationale and unique advantages, the chapter proceeds to describe some of the on-going research designed to validate and extend ITDNS. The chapter also briefly describes our recent research which is taking advantage of the human-in-the-loop testing capabilities of ITDNS to evaluate a number of CV and AV applications such as eco-signals, Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), and Co-operative, Integrated Vehicle Infrastructure Control (CIVIC).

We conducted thermal expansion and magnetostriction measurements in magnetic fields up to 14 T on perovskitic GdMnO3 by highresolution capacitive dilatometry in an effort to determine all longitudinal and transversal components of the magnetostriction tensor. Below the ordering temperature TN = 42 K, i.e., within the different complex (incommensurate or complex) antiferromagnetic phases, lattice distortions of up to 100 ppm have been found. Although no change of the lattice symmetry occurs, the measurements reveal strong magneto-structural phenomena, especially in the incommensurate sinusoidal antiferromagnetic phase. A strong anisotropy of the magnetoelastic properties was found, in good agreement with the type and propagation vector of the magnetic structure. We demonstrate that our capacitive dilatometry can detect lattice expansion effects and changes of the dielectric permittivity simultaneously because the sample is housed inside the capacitor. A separation of both effects is possible by shielding the sample. Dielectric transitions could be detected by this method and compared to the critical values of H and T in the magnetic phase diagram. Dielectric changes measured at 1 kHz excitation frequency are detected in GdMnO3 at about 180 K, and between 10 K and 25 K in the canted antiferromagnetic structure which is characterized by a complex magnetic order on both the Gd-and Mn-sites.
Study of the Low Temperature Glassy Phase in Gd0.5Sr0.5MnO3 Single Crystals

We report AC susceptibility measurements carried out on these single crystals at various frequencies in the range 42 to 10,000 Hz under the application of small AC magnetic field (∼170 mOe). The frequency dependence of the peak temperature follows a critical slowing down with exponent zν=1.13(4) as seen in the dynamical scaling analysis reported in the present paper. We observe that the glass-like phase in GSMO50 (∼ below 32 K) is very sluggish (spin flipping time τ 0=4×10−6 sec).

An investigation of first-order transition across charge ordered and ferromagnetic phases in Gd0.5Sr0.5MnO3single crystals by magnetic and magnetotransport studies

We report here the magnetic and magnetotransport properties of these crystals. A large magnetoresistance ∼10(9)% was observed at 45 K under the application of a 110 kOe field. We have observed notable thermomagnetic anomalies such as open hysteresis loops across the broadened first-order transition between the charge order insulator and the ferromagnetic metallic phase while traversing the magnetic field-temperature (H-T) plane isothermally or isomagnetically. In order to discern the cause of these observed anomalies, the H-T phase diagram for Gd(0.5)Sr(0.5)MnO(3) is formulated using the magnetization-field (M-H), magnetization-temperature (M-T) and resistance-temperature (R-T) measurements. The temperature dependence of the critical field (i.e. H(up), the field required for transformation to the ferromagnetic metallic phase) is non-monotonic. We note that the non-monotonic variation of the supercooling limit is anomalous according to the classical concepts of the first-order phase transition. Accordingly, H(up) values below ∼20 K are unsuitable to represent the supercooling limit. It is possible that the nature of the metastable states responsible for the observed open hysteresis loops is different from that of the supercooled ones.

Integrated Traffic-Driving-Networking Simulator for the Design of Connected Vehicle Applications: Eco-Signal Case Study

The ITDNS allows a human driver to control a subject vehicle, in a virtual environment, that is capable of communicating with other vehicles and the infrastructure with CTS messages. The challenges associated with the integration of the three simulators, and how those challenges were overcome, are discussed. As an application example, an eco-signal system, which recommends the approach speed for vehicles approaching the intersection so as to minimize fuel consumption and emissions, was implemented in the ITDNS. Test drivers were then asked to virtually drive through a signalized corridor twice, one time with the eco-signal system in place and another without the system. Thanks to the human-in-the-loop component of ITDNS, the research was able to evaluate the likely benefits of the eco-signal system, while accounting for the response of human drivers to the recommended speed profiles. Moreover, the study compared the energy consumption and emission production rates of human-controlled vehicles’ approach trajectories to the rates associated with “idealistic” trajectories that may be attainable via vehicle automation. With respect to ITDNS, the study demonstrates the unique advantages of the simulator and the broad range of applications it can address. Regarding the eco-signal application example, preliminary results demonstrate the potential of the concept to result in tangible reductions of around 9% for energy consumption, 18% for carbon monoxide, and 25% for nitrogen oxides emissions. Moreover, the application eliminated hard accelerations and decelerations maneuvers, and thus may have an additional positive safety impact.

Toward Effective Service Scheduling for Human Drivers in Vehicular Cyber-Physical Systems

Since a service (message) delivery includes service transmission, service display and driver processing, many challenges arise due to limited network resources, possible preemption and contention between services for the display and non-negligible driver processing delay. In this paper, we address a new Driver-centric Service Delivery Problem (DSDP) from a cross-disciplinary resource allocation standpoint. Our goal is to deliver a number of services to a set of intended drivers in a given time period so as to maximize the system-wide performance in terms of total utility income (TUI) to drivers. We show that DSDP differs from all existing problems and is NP-Complete. A number of efficient heuristics are proposed to address several issues, including wireless transmission failure as well as distributed implementation of the multi-sender systems. Utilizing real traces collected from taxis in the city of Shanghai, we also present a case study in a more realistic scenario and conduct comprehensive simulations providing numerical results.
