New measurements and reanalysis of 14N elastic scattering on 10B target

The angular distributions of elastic scattering of ¹⁴N ions on ¹⁰B targets have been measured at incident beam energies of 21.0 and 24.5 MeV. Angular distributions at higher energies 38–94.0 MeV (previously measured) were also included in the analysis. All data were analyzed within the framework of the optical model and the distorted waves Born approximation method. The observed rise in cross sections at large angles was interpreted as a possible contribution of the α-cluster exchange mechanism. Spectroscopic amplitudes SA₂ and SA₄ for the configuration ¹⁴N→ ¹⁰B +α were extracted. Their average values are 0.58±0.10 and 0.81±0.12 for SA₂ and SA₄, respectively, suggesting that the exchange mechanism is a major component of the elastic scattering for this system. The energy dependence of the depths for the real and imaginary potentials was found.

A benchmark of optimally folded protein structures using integer programming and the 3D-HP-SC model

The Protein Structure Prediction (PSP) problem comprises, among other issues, forecasting the three-dimensional native structure of proteins using only their primary structure information. Most computational studies in this area use synthetic data instead of real biological data. However, the closer to the real-world, the more the impact of results and their applicability. This work presents 17 real protein sequences extracted from the Protein Data Bank for a benchmark to the PSP problem using the tri-dimensional Hydrophobic-Polar with Side-Chains model (3D-HP-SC). The native structure of these proteins was found by maximizing the number of hydrophobic contacts between the side-chains of amino acids. The problem was treated as an optimization problem and solved by means of an Integer Programming approach. Although the method optimally solves the problem, the processing time has an exponential trend. Therefore, due to computational limitations, the method is a proof-of-concept and it is not applicable to large sequences. For unknown sequences, an upper bound of the number of hydrophobic contacts (using this model) can be found, due to a linear relationship with the number of hydrophobic residues. The comparison between the predicted and the biological structures showed that the highest similarity between them was found with distance thresholds around 5.2–8.2 Å. Both the dataset and the programs developed will be freely available to foster further research in the area.     

Analysis,design and simulation of MIM plasmonic filters with different geometries for technical parameters improvement

In this paper, four optical filter topologies based on metal–insulator–metal waveguides are proposed and the designed structures are investigated numerically using finite-difference timedomain method. Triangular-shaped adjunctions have been added to the filter structures to improve their transmission spectrum. These improved structures consist of air as the insulator and silver as the metal. The relative permittivity of metal has been described via the Drude,Drude–Lorentz, and Palik models. The first filter's transmission spectrum shows an acceptable transmittance. In the second optimized filter, the transmission spectrum has been improved. The transmittance spectrum can be tuned through adjusting the edge of the triangle in these four optimized filters. As a result, the bandwidths of resonance spectra can be adjusted. The theory of such tapered structures will be investigated by the tapered transmission line and will be solved with the transfer matrix method. This method shows a better performance and higher transmission efficiency in comparison with the basic structures. On the other hand, the final filter has been chosen as the best one because of its hexagonal resonator. The main reason for having a better result is due to a longer interaction length in comparison with the circular resonator. This in turn creates much better energy coupling and results in higher transmission.     

Extended Dirac oscillator in (2 + 1)-dimensional space-time

We consider a soluble covariant extension of the two-dimensional Dirac oscillator (2D DO), which breaks the infinite degeneracy of the energy spectrum. The energy eigenvalues and the corresponding eigenstates of the system are obtained algebraically using chiral creation and annihilation operators. The effect of the coupling to an external constant transverse magnetic field is investigated. The connection with Jaynes-Cummings (JC) and Anti-Jaynes-Cummings (AJC) models of quantum optics, and other features of the system are also discussed.

The Cauchy problem for a spin-liquid model in three space dimensions

In this paper, we study the Cauchy problem for magnetic fluid of spin-liquid type with Mermin-Ho relation in the three-dimensional space and prove global existence and uniqueness of solutions. The proof is based on the equivalence relation between smooth solutions of the spin-liquid model and the systems of Schrödinger equations with Abelian gauge field. The Sobolev spaces with fractional derivatives are also used in our estimates.     

考虑制动力影响的大型客车舒适性分析

利用有限元法和动力平衡原理,建立了具有层间接触的沥青路面和13个自由度的大型客车人体三维模型。以不平顺作为激励,随机模拟车流分布,在不同制动情况下,从时域和频域两方面分析人-车-路耦合振动下车辆和人体的动力响应。时域分析采用客观评价标准和主观烦恼率相结合的方法,频域分析考虑人体共振、人的心理和生理因素。结果表明:随着制动力增大,人体的竖向加速度幅值不变,俯仰、侧倾加速度幅值都增大,但是俯仰加速度增幅远大于侧倾加速度的情况,人的舒适性变差,烦恼率增高;在紧急制动时,主频段对人体共振、心理和生理产生的影响很小,但是次主频段与人体某些器官固有频段重合,对人体共振、心理和生理产生的影响是不容忽视的。     

AlGaN/GaN高电子迁移率器件外部边缘电容的物理模型

AlGaN/GaN HEMT外部边缘电容Cofd是由栅极垂直侧壁与二维电子气水平壁之间的电场构成的等效电容.本文基于保角映射法对Cofd进行物理建模,考虑沟道长度调制效应,研究外部偏置、阈值电压漂移和温度变化对Cofd的影响:随着漏源偏压从零开始增加,Cofd先保持不变再开始衰减,其衰减速率随栅源偏压的增加而减缓;AlGaN势垒层中施主杂质浓度的减小和Al组分的减小都可引起阈值电压的正向漂移,正向阈值漂移会加强沟道长度调制效应对Cofd的影响,导致Cofd呈线性衰减.在大漏极偏压工作情况下,Cofd对器件工作温度的变化更加敏感.     

Tightly coupled aeroelastic model implementation dedicated to fast aeroelastic tailoring optimisation of high aspect ratio composite wing

This paper presents the development of a code, called GEBTAero, dedicated to very flexible aircraft (VFA) aeroelasticity and especially the evaluation of aeroelastic tailoring effect on critical speeds. GEBTAero is an open source code consisting in a tightly coupling between a geometrically exact beam theory -and a finite state induced flow unsteady aerodynamic model, including an homogenisation tool. This model has been implemented in Fortran using GEBT code and optimised open source libraries with particular focus on computation speed. Besides a non linear transient dynamic simulation capacity, a particular focus is put on the fast critical speed computation strategy using a non-iterative modal approach about the geometrically non linear deformed shape of the wing with the computation of only a few aeroelastic modes. Computation speed and accuracy of this implementation is assessed using widely used aeroelastic test cases and compared successfully to other aeroelastic codes. Configurations using aeroelastic tailoring, which are the core target of this solver, are then evaluated numerically on a representative high aspect ratio anisotropic composite wing and a simple 2-ply composite laminates with both variable ply orientations. It illustrates the strong correlation between the structural bending/twisting coupling of an unbalanced composite laminates and its critical aeroelastic speed. It also shows the high sensitivity of ply orientation on the aeroelastic behaviour.
