On the connectedness of numerical range of matrix polynomials

An investigation on nonconnectedness of numerical range for monic matrix polynomials L(λ) is undertaking here. The distribution of eigenvalues of L(λ) to the components of numerical range and some other algebraic properties are also presented.     

电站锅炉系统性能仿真模型的建立

1引言根据热力学第二定律，燃料中的化学拥将近一半损失在锅炉的燃烧与传热过程中。因此，优化锅炉性能对降低整个火电机组的煤耗率具有明显效果。完整的锅炉系统由磨煤机、送风机、一次风机、弓讯机、炉膛、汽包、过热器、再热器、省煤器、空气预热器等单元组成，这些单元之间的联结错综复杂。本文建立了锅炉系统中通用单元的性能模型，并在此基础上，对锅炉系统的结构特点进行了分析，利用过程系统工程中的序贯模块法建立了整个锅炉系统的性能模型。对单元的划分、回路的切断及断裂流股的收敛与迭代策略提出了自己的观点。最后根据生产厂…     

On asymptotic approximations for slow wave processes in nonlinear dispersive media

We consider the application of asymptotic methods of nonlinear mechanics (the Krylov-Bogolyubov-Mitropol'skii method) and the method of separation of motions in nonlinear systems for the construction of an approximate solution of a nonlinear equation that describes a nonstationary wave process.

Random oscillations in the Van der Pol system under the action of a broadband random process

We construct the second approximation for random oscillations described by the Van der Pol equation which are under the action of a broadband random process. Translated from Ukrainskii Matematicheskii Zhurnal, Vol. 50, No. 11, pp. 1517–1521, November, 1998.     

The electronic spectrum of a three-dimensional quasicrystal

The electronic spectrum of an icosahedral quasicrystal with a central-atom decoration of the Amman-Mackay network is investigated in the tight-binding approximation. The quasicrystal is described as a structural limit of the optimal cubic approximants with increasing period. The electronic spectra for the first four optimal cubic approximants do not contain the hierarchical gap structure which is typical for the Cantor set of the spectrum of a one-dimensional quasicrystal. At the same time, as the order of the approximant increases, the spectrum becomes singular throughout the entire energy scale. Pis’ma Zh. éksp. Teor.

Anomalous proximity effect in d-wave superconductors

The anomalous proximity effect between a d-wave superconductor and a thin disordered normal layer is studied theoretically in the framework of Eilenberger equations. It is shown that disorder of the quasiparticle reflection from this thin layer leads to the formation of an s-wave component localized near the boundary. The angular and spatial structure of the pair potential near the interface is studied. Pis’ma Zh. éksp. Teor.

Shell effects in the symmetric-modal fission of pre-actinide nuclei

Mass distributions of fragments in the low-energy fission of nuclei from ¹⁸⁷Ir to ²¹³At have been analysed. This analysis has shown that shell effects in symmetric-mode fragment mass yields from the fission of pre-actinide nuclei could be described if one assumes the existence of two strongly deformed neutron shells in the arising fragments with neutron numbers N₁ ≈ 52 and N₂ ≈ 68. A new method has been proposed for quantitatively describing the mass distributions of the symmetric fission mode for pre-actinides with A ≈ 180–220.     

Electronic molecule-like spectrum of quantum wells in crossed fields

We show that an electron confined to a single finite parabolic quantum well in crossed electric and magnetic fields can behave as a double quantum well system. The magnetic field is parallel to the heterostructure layers and the electric field is perpendicular to those. For a suitable choice of both fields and quantum well width, the electron can be confined to a double quantum well effective potential that is very similar to the electronic potential model for diatomic molecules. The double quantum well spectrum is calculated using a numerical algorithm based on semiclassical methods. A physical interpretation of this quantum system is given based on the analogy to the electrons bound to diatomic molecules.     

Space time-index plots for probing dynamical nonstationarity

We propose a simple method to efficiently probe dynamical nonstationarity in observed time series. In a space time-index plot, the density distributions as a function of normalized time-index are V-shaped due to nonstationarity. We show that this method is workable for short data sets and typical examples are illustrated.
