To improve the calculation precision of deformation in prestressed concrete bridge in passenger dedicated line and accurately predict the development of shrinkage and creep in bridge, a universal applicable modified model was put forward in this paper based on ACI 209R(1992) shrinkage and creep model. In the modified model, three influence factors-slump, strength and reinforcement - are corrected. And the modified model results were compared with the experimental results. It shows that the modified model can more accurately predict the development of shrinkage and creep of high-speed railway bridge and better accord with the law of it.

This paper presents an investigation of the design optimization in microstrip lines to reduce the crosstalk level using Fuzzy Logic. In microstrip lines length and spacing, termination conditions of interconnection and output impedance of gates are the major components that cause crosstalk. In order to design high speed printed circuit board (PCB) with optimum interconnection configuration, it is essential to reduce the crosstalk to its minimum tolerance level. A design methodology is proposed to correlate electrical parameters and physical configuration of lines to the crosstalk phenomena. This design is subsequently optimized using Fuzzy Logic to reduce the level of crosstalk. A set of experiments is carried out to demonstrate the capabilities of the design and optimization methods. The effect of the geometrical configuration of the lines on crosstalk, particularly the spacing, is highlighted.
