含硫氨基酸与本征及缺陷石墨烯表面的相互作用

半胱氨酸及蛋氨酸是人体的两种含硫氨基酸,在生物活性中发挥着巨大的作用.本研究采用密度泛函理论方法对以上两种氨基酸在本征及缺陷石墨烯表面的吸附机理进行了详细研究.主要考虑了两种吸附体系:半胱氨酸及蛋氨酸平躺在两种石墨烯表面;两种氨基酸垂直地放置于两种石墨烯表面,且含硫的基团靠近表面.研究结果表明,半胱氨酸及蛋氨酸初始构型对它们之间的相互作用有一定的影响.两种氨基酸平躺时有较大的吸附能.此外,吸附能的结果显示两种氨基酸可以更好的与缺陷石墨烯表面紧密结合.同时,蛋氨酸与本征及缺陷石墨烯相互作用均大于半胱氨酸与本征及缺陷石墨烯相互作用.模拟结果有望为含硫氨基酸的石墨烯传感器提供有用的指导.     

等热流密度加热垂直下降液膜的研究

利用等热流密度加热条件下降膜流动的三维模型方程进行线性稳定性分析和数值模拟。线性稳定性分析表明，模型方程在小到中等Reynolds数下都适用，并且流向不稳定性增长率随着Reynolds数和Marangoni数增加而增加，展向不稳定性增长率则随着Marangoni数增加而增加，随着Reynolds数增加而减小，流向和展向对扰动波数都存在一个不稳定区间。三维数值模拟表明，在等热流密度加热条件下，液膜在随机扰动的情况下最终会形成带孤立波的三维溪流状结构，液膜与气体的换热也因溪流状结构的出现而加强；在随机扰动的基础上引入占优势地位的展向最不稳定扰动会使得换热增强，液膜会提前破裂；在随机扰动的基础上引入占优势地位的流向最不稳定扰动时，液膜的换热会增强，但不会提前破裂；在随机扰动的基础上同时引入占优势地位的流向和展向最不稳定扰动时，换热会加强且液膜会提前破裂。     

Quasistationary distributions for one-dimensional diffusions with singular boundary points

In the present work we characterize the existence of quasistationary distributions for diffusions on $(0,\infty )$ allowing singular behavior at 0 and $\infty$. If absorption at 0 is certain, we show that there exists a quasistationary distribution as soon as the spectrum of the generator is strictly positive. This complements results of Cattiaux et al. (2009) and Kolb and Steinsaltz (2012) for 0 being a regular boundary point and extends results by Cattiaux et al. (2009) on singular diffusions.     

Colourings of cubic graphs inducing isomorphic monochromatic subgraphs

A -bisection of a bridgeless cubic graph is a -colouring of its vertex set such that the colour classes have the same cardinality and all connected components in the two subgraphs induced by the colour classes ( monochromatic components in what follows) have order at most . Ban and Linial Conjectured that every bridgeless cubic graph admits a -bisection except for the Petersen graph. A similar problem for the edge set of cubic graphs has been studied: Wormald conjectured that every cubic graph with has a -edge colouring such that the two monochromatic subgraphs are isomorphic linear forests (ie, a forest whose components are paths). Finally, Ando conjectured that every cubic graph admits a bisection such that the two induced monochromatic subgraphs are isomorphic. In this paper, we provide evidence of a strong relation of the conjectures of Ban-Linial and Wormald with Ando's Conjecture. Furthermore, we also give computational and theoretical evidence in their support. As a result, we pose some open problems stronger than the above-mentioned conjectures. Moreover, we prove Ban-Linial's Conjecture for cubic-cycle permutation graphs. As a by-product of studying -edge colourings of cubic graphs having linear forests as monochromatic components, we also give a negative answer to a problem posed by Jackson and Wormald about certain decompositions of cubic graphs into linear forests.
