Generalized Jacobi spectral Galerkin method for fractional pantograph differential equation

This work is concerned with the extension of the Jacobi spectral Galerkin method to a class of nonlinear fractional pantograph differential equations. First, the fractional differential equation is converted to a nonlinear Volterra integral equation with weakly singular kernel. Second, we analyze the existence and uniqueness of solutions for the obtained integral equation. Then, the Galerkin method is used for solving the equivalent integral equation. The error estimates for the proposed method are also investigated. Finally, illustrative examples are presented to confirm our theoretical analysis.     

Horizontal convection in a rectangular enclosure driven by a linear temperature profile

The horizontal convection in a square enclosure driven by a linear temperature profile along the bottom boundary is investigated numerically by using a finite difference method. The Prandtl number is fixed at 4.38, and the Rayleigh number Ra ranges from107 to 1011. The convective flow is steady at a relatively low Rayleigh number, and no thermal plume is observed, whereas it transits to be unsteady when the Rayleigh number increases beyond the critical value. The scaling law for the Nusselt number Nu changes from Rossby's scaling Nu ～ Ra~(1/5) in a steady regime to Nu ～ Ra~(1/4) in an unsteady regime, which agrees well with the theoretically predicted results. Accordingly,the Reynolds number Re scaling varies from Re ～ Ra~(3/11) to Re ～ Ra~(2/5). The investigation on the mean flows shows that the thermal and kinetic boundary layer thickness and the mean temperature in the bulk zone decrease with the increasing Ra. The intensity of fluctuating velocity increases with the increasing Ra.

A new direct band gap silicon allotropeο-Si32

Silicon is a preferred material in solar cells,and most of silicon allotropes have an indirect band gap.Therefore,it is important to find new direct band gap silicon.In the present work,a new direct band gap silicon allotrope of o-Si32 is discovered.The elastic constants,elastic anisotropy,phonon spectra,and electronic structure of o-Si32 are obtained using first-principles calculations.The results show that o-Si32 is mechanically and dynamically stable and is a direct semiconductor material with a band gap of 1.261 e V.
