Linear stability of WENO schemes coupled with explicit Runge–Kutta schemes

This paper focuses on the results of the linear stability analysis of the finite‐difference weighted essentially non‐oscillatory (WENO) schemes with optimal weights. The standard WENO schemes between the third and 11th order, the order‐optimised WENO schemes of the sixth and eighth order and the bandwidth‐optimised WENO schemes of the third and fourth order are considered. Several explicit Runge–Kutta schemes including the recently published strong stability‐preserving explicit Runge–Kutta schemes are considered for time discretisation. The stability limits as well as dissipation and dispersion properties dependent on the Courant–Friedrichs–Lewy number are presented for a hyperbolic model equation. The different combinations of space and time discretisation schemes are compared in terms of their accuracy and efficiency. For a parabolic model equation, the viscous term is discretised with high‐order central differences. The stability limits for the parabolic problem are presented as well. Numerical results of linear test cases are shown. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Higher-order time integration with a local Lax–Wendroff procedure for a central scheme on an overlapping grid

We have implemented a high-order Lax–Wendroff type time integration for a central scheme on an overlapping grid for conservation law problems. Using a local iterative approach presented by Dumbser et al. (JCP, 2008) [12], we extend a local high-order spatial reconstruction on each cell to a local higher-order space–time polynomial on the cell. We rewrite the central scheme in a fully discrete form to avoid volume integration in the space–time domain. The fluxes at cell interfaces are calculated directly via integrating a higher-order space–time reconstruction of the flux. We compare this approach with the corresponding multi-stage Runge–Kutta time integration (RK). Numerical results show that the new time integration is more cost-effective.     

Analysis of a meshless solver for high Reynolds number flow

In this paper, the extension of an upwind least‐square based meshless solver to high Reynolds number flow is explored, and the properties of the meshless solver are analyzed both theoretically and numerically. Existing works have verified the meshless solver mostly with inviscid flows and low Reynolds number flows, and in this work, we are interested in the behavior of the meshless solver for high Reynolds number flow, especially in the near‐wall region. With both theoretical and numerical analysis, the effects of two parameters on the meshless solver are identified. The first one is the misalignment effect caused by the significantly skewed supporting points, and it is found that the meshless solver still yields accurate prediction. It is a very interesting property and is opposite to the median‐dual control volume based vertex‐centered finite volume method, which is known to give degraded result with stretched triangular/tetrahedral cells in the near‐wall region. The second parameter is the curvature, and according to theoretical analysis, it is found in the region with both large aspect ratio and curvature, and the streamwise residual is less affected; however, the wall‐normal counterpart suffers from accuracy degradation. In this paper, an improved method that uses a meshless solver for the streamwise residual and finite difference for wall‐normal residual is developed. This method is proved to be less sensitive to the curvature and provides improved accuracy. This work presents an understanding of the meshless solver for high Reynolds number flow computation, and the analysis in this paper is verified with a series of numerical experiments.

Ranking ranges in cross-efficiency evaluations

The existence of alternate optima for the DEA weights may reduce the usefulness of the cross-efficiency evaluation, since the ranking provided depends on the choice of weights that the different DMUs make. In this paper, we develop a procedure to carry out the cross-efficiency evaluation without the need to make any specific choice of DEA weights. The proposed procedure takes into consideration all the possible choices of weights that all the DMUs can make, and yields for each unit a range for its possible rankings instead of a single ranking. This range is determined by the best and the worst rankings that would result in the best and the worst scenarios of each unit across all the DEA weights of all the DMUs. This approach might identify good/bad performers, as those that rank at the top/bottom irrespective of the weights that are chosen, or units that outperform others in all the scenarios. In addition, it may be used to analyze the stability of the ranking provided by the standard cross-efficiency evaluation.     

Halbwertszeiten von 135 Radionukliden

Für 135 Radionuklide werden in der Literatur veröffentlichte Werte der Halbwertszeit mit Angabe von 200 Zitaten zusammengestellt. Dabei sind vorzugsweise die neuesten und zuverlässigsten Werte – maximal 4 je Nuklid – berücksichtigt. Für jades Nuklid wird ferner ein wahrscheinlichster Wert der Halbwertszeit angegeben. Die Anwendung dieses Wertes wird insbesondere auch bei der Umrechnung von Aktivitätsangaben der vom ASMW bereitgestellten Normallösungen radioaktiver Nuklide empfohlen.     

Empirical Likelihood Estimation for the Two-Sample Mean under Density Ratio Models Using Auxiliary Information

Auxiliary population information is often available in finite population inference problems, and the empirical likelihood (EL) approach has been demonstrated to be flexible and useful for such problems. The present paper concerns EL when interest centers on inference for the mean of the baseline distribution under two-sample density ratio models. Although dual EL is a convenient technical tool since it has the same maximum point and maximum likelihood as DRM-based EL, it can not combine such auxiliary information into the likelihood conveniently and may have loss of efficiency. By contrast, the classical EL approach of Qin and Lawless\ucite{21} does not have this problem and incorporate seamlessly auxiliary information. Based on the EL using auxiliary information and the dual EL methods, we construct both point and interval estimations and make a careful comparison. Though the point estimation efficiency gain obtained by the former is not noticeable, we find that they may have different performances in interval estimation. In terms of coverage accuracy, the two intervals are comparable for not or moderate skewed populations, and the EL interval using auxiliary information can be much superior for severely skewed populations.     

Semiclassical transition state theory/master equation kinetics of HO + CO: Performance evaluation

Previously, master equation (ME) simulations using semiclassical transition state theory (SCTST) and high-accuracy extrapolated ab initio thermochemistry (HEAT) predicted rate constants in excellent agreement with published experimental data over a wide range of pressure and temperatures ≳250 K, but the agreement was not as good at lower temperatures. Possible reasons for this reduced performance are investigated by (a) critically evaluating the published experimental data and by investigating; (b) three distinct ME treatments of angular momentum, including one that is exact at the zero- and infinite-pressure limits; (c) a hindered-rotor model for HOCO that implicitly includes the cis- and trans-conformers; (d) possible empirical adjustments of the thermochemistry; (e) possible empirical adjustments to an imaginary frequency controlling tunneling; (f) including or neglecting the prereaction complex PRC1; and (g) its possible bimolecular reactions. Improvements include better approximations to factors in SCTST and using the Hill and van Vleck treatment of angular momentum coupling. Evaluation of literature data does not reveal any specific shortcomings, but the stated uncertainties may be underestimated. All ME treatments give excellent fits to experimental data at T ≥ 250 K, but the discrepancy at T < 250 K persists. Note that each ME model requires individual empirical energy transfer parameters. Thermochemical adjustments were unable to match the experimental H/D kinetic isotope effects. Adjusting an imaginary frequency can achieve good fits, but the adjustments are unacceptably large. Whether PRC1 and its possible bimolecular reactions are included had little effect. We conclude that none of the adjustments is an improvement over the unadjusted theory. Note that only one set of experimental data exists in the regime of the discrepancy with theory, and data for DO + CO are scanty.     

基于荧光光谱技术的菜籽油氧化状态智能评价

菜籽油在加工及贮藏过程中，易受氧气、温度、光照等因素的影响，产生氧化酸败现象。为准确判断油脂氧化程度，实现不同氧化模式下菜籽油品质的快速判别，采用三维同步荧光光谱技术结合平行因子分析法及BP神经网络法建立菜籽油氧化状态的智能评价模型。以冷榨菜籽油为原料，将样品分别置于常温、Schaal烘箱、高温模式中氧化处理，期间采集菜籽油的三维同步荧光光谱数据及理化指标，当理化指标超出国标限定范围时，停止采集数据。结果表明，菜籽油中荧光物质在不同氧化模式中的演变规律呈显著差异，氧化温度对菜籽油荧光光谱有明显影响。常温氧化350 d与第1 d相比，菜籽油的特征荧光峰位置无变化，仅在激发波长Ex为620和660 nm附近荧光峰强度发生微弱变化；Schaal烘箱氧化26 d后，在激发波长Ex为620和660 nm附近荧光峰强度显著减弱，且在激发波长Ex为350～450 nm之间有新的荧光峰生成；高温氧化48 h后，Ex为620和660 nm处荧光峰消失，在Ex为400～550 nm处产生显著荧光峰，相对Schaal烘箱氧化，荧光波长发生一定程度红移，这是由于高温氧化过程中油脂氧化生成的物质稳定性较差引起的。利用平行因子分析法对三维同步荧光光谱数据进行分解获取有效的二维荧光光谱数据，当组分数为6，Δλ=60 nm时激发波长的载荷值最大，不同样品间差异最显著。选定Δλ=60 nm波段的二维荧光光谱数据用于智能评价，作为BP神经网络模型的输入值，以极性组分作为模型输出值，分别对菜籽油三种氧化模式数据建模训练。实验结果表明，三种氧化模式对应的训练集、验证集、测试集模型相关系数r均能达到0.9以上，其中常温氧化模式中验证集及测试集模型的相关系数r为1，输出值与目标值较接近，模型的预测效果较好；综合三种氧化模式数据建模，对应训练集、验证集、测试集模型的相关系数分别为0.999，0.913和0.988，均方误差均较小，说明该模型能准确判断菜籽油的不同氧化状态。因此，三维同步荧光光谱技术结合平行因子分析法、BP神经网络法建立快速检测模型能实现菜籽油不同氧化状态的判别，为菜籽油的氧化程度的评价提供新方法，同时为其他食用油的品质评价提供参考。
