Salt‐Induced Depression of Lower Critical Solution Temperature in a Surface‐Grafted Neutral Thermoresponsive Polymer

Summary: Quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM‐D) is employed to determine the effect of salt on the volume phase transition of thermoresponsive polymer brushes. Changes in mass and viscoelasticity of poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) layers grafted from a QCM‐D crystal are measured as a function of temperature, upon contact with aqueous solutions of varying salt concentrations. The phase‐transition temperature of PNIPAM brushes, T_C,graft, quantified from the QCM‐D measurements is found to decrease as the concentration of salt is increased. This phenomenon is explained by the tendency of salt ions to affect the structure of water molecules (Hofmeister effect). However, in contrast to the linear decrease in phase‐transition temperature upon increasing salt concentration observed for free PNIPAM, the trend in T_C,graft for PNIPAM brushes is distinctively non‐linear.

The limit case response of the archetypal oscillator for smooth and discontinuous dynamics

In this paper, the limit case of the SD (smooth and discontinuous) oscillator is studied. This system exhibits standard dynamics governed by the hyperbolic structure associated with the stationary state of the double-well. The substantial deviation from the standard dynamics is the non-smoothness of the velocity in crossing from one well to another, caused by the loss of local hyperbolicity due to the discontinuity. Without dissipation, the KAM structure on the Poincaré section is constructed with generic KAM curves and a series of fixed points associated with surrounded islands of quasi-periodic orbits and the chaotic connection orbits. It is found that, for a fixed set of parameters, a special chaotic orbit exits there which fills a finite region and connects a series of islands dominated by different chains of fixed points. As one adds weak dissipation, the periodic solutions in this finite region remain unchanged while the quasi-periodic solutions (isolated islands) are converted to the corresponding periodic solutions. The relevant dynamics for the system with weak dissipation under external excitation is shown having period doubling bifurcation leading to chaos, and multi-stable solutions.     

Fast parametrically excited van der Pol oscillator with time delay state feedback

We investigate the effect of a fast vertical parametric excitation on self-excited vibrations in a delayed van der Pol oscillator. We use the method of direct partition of motion to derive the main autonomous equation governing the slow dynamic in the vicinity of the trivial equilibrium. Then, we apply the multiple scales method on this slow dynamic to derive a second-order slow flow system describing the modulation of slow dynamic. In particular we analyze the slow flow to obtain the effect of a fast excitation on the regions in parameter space where self-excited vibrations can be eliminated. We have shown that in the case where the time delay and the feedback gains are imposed, fast vertical parametric excitation can be an alternative to suppress undesirable self-excited vibrations in a delayed van der Pol oscillator.

In this paper nonlinear dynamical symmetries of three quantum systems are studied in detail, such as the Kepler-Coulomb system and the isotropic harmonic oscillator in a two-dimensional curved space, and the generalized pseudo-oscillators in the two-dimensional fiat space. Their nonlinear spectrum generating algebras are shown to be relevant to polynomial angular momentum algebras.
