Delineating sources of groundwater recharge and carbon in Holocene aquifers of the central Gangetic basin using stable isotopic signatures

Stable isotopes of water (δ²H, δ¹⁸O) and δ¹³C_TIC were used as a tool to trace the recharge processes, natural carbon (organic and inorganic) source and dynamics in the aquifers of the central Gangetic basin, India. Stable isotope (δ²H, δ¹⁸O) record of groundwater (n?=?105) revealed that the groundwater of Piedmont was recharged by meteoric origin before evaporation, while aquifers of the older and younger alluvium were recharged by water that had undergone evaporation loss. River Ganges and its tributaries passing through this area have very little contribution in recharging while ponds play no role in the recharging of adjacent aquifers. The connectivity of shallow aquifers of aquitard formation (comprised of clay/sandy clay with thin patches of fine grey sand), i.e. 25–60?m below ground level (bgl) with the main upper aquifer (at a depth of >120?m?bgl) was found to be higher in older and younger alluvium. Negative values of δ¹³C_TIC (median ?9.6 ‰; range ?13.2 to ?5.4 ‰) and high TIC (median 35?mM; range 31–46?mM) coupled with low TOC (median 1.35?mg/L; range 0.99–1.77?mg/L) indicated acceleration in microbial activity in the younger alluvium, especially in the active floodplain of river Ganges and its proximity.     

Constrained Hamilton variational principle for shallow water problems and Zu-class symplectic algorithm

In this paper, the shallow water problem is discussed. By treating the incompressible condition as the constraint, a constrained Hamilton variational principle is presented for the shallow water problem. Based on the constrained Hamilton variational principle, a shallow water equation based on displacement and pressure (SWE-DP) is developed. A hybrid numerical method combining the finite element method for spatial discretization and the Zu-class method for time integration is created for the SWEDP. The correctness of the proposed SWE-DP is verified by numerical comparisons with two existing shallow water equations (SWEs). The effectiveness of the hybrid numerical method proposed for the SWE-DP is also verified by numerical experiments. Moreover, the numerical experiments demonstrate that the Zu-class method shows excellent performance with respect to simulating the long time evolution of the shallow water.

This paper proposes an oxide filled extended trench gate super junction (SJ) MOSFET structure to meet the need of higher frequency power switches application. Compared with the conventional trench gate SJ MOSFET, new structure has the smaller input and output capacitances, and the remarkable improvements in the breakdown voltage, on-resistance and switching speed. Furthermore, the SJ in the new structure can be realized by the existing trench etching and shallow angle implantation, which offers more freedom to SJ MOSFET device design and fabrication.

从根据浅水特性在垂直方向所平均化的N-S方程出发,利用有限元计算船舶进出船厢时的水动力学过程和船舶运动过程中的升沉、纵倾及船舶与厢底的最小间隙.由于在平均过程中保留了粘性项,同时产生了底摩擦项,使得到的数学方程更接近真实物理问题,另一方面也增加数值计算的稳定性.本文提出了随非惯性系一起运动的开边界的辐射条件.关于压力的求解,在船底与自由表面分别利用压力泊松方程求压力及自由表面利用连续方程求波高的求解方法.由针对三峡升船机的数值模拟的计算结果看,计算结果合理,计算方法稳定.

Ni/Au/n-GaN肖特基二极管可导位错的电学模型

可导线性位错被普遍认为是GaN基器件泄漏电流的主要输运通道,但其精细的电学模型目前仍不清楚.鉴于此,本文基于对GaN肖特基二极管的电流输运机制分析提出可导位错的物理模型,重点强调:1)位于位错中心的深能级受主态(主要Ga空位)电离后库仑势较高,理论上对泄漏电流没有贡献; 2)位错周围的高浓度浅能级施主态电离后能形成势垒高度较低的薄表面耗尽层,可引发显著隧穿电流,成为主要漏电通道;3)并非传统N空位,认为O替代N所形成的浅能级施主缺陷应是引发漏电的主要电学态,其热激活能约为47.5 meV.本工作亦有助于理解其他GaN器件的电流输运和电学退化行为.

A Survey of High Order Schemes for the Shallow Water Equations

In this paper, we survey our recent work on designing high order positivity-preserving well-balanced finite difference and finite volume WENO (weighted essentially non-oscillatory) schemes, and discontinuous Galerkin finite element schemes for solving the shallow water equations with a non-flat bottom topography. These schemes are genuinely high order accurate in smooth regions for general solutions, are essentially non-oscillatory for general solutions with discontinuities, and at the same time they preserve exactly the water at rest or the more general moving water steady state solutions. A simple positivity-preserving limiter, valid under suitable CFL condition, has been introduced in one dimension and reformulated to two dimensions with triangular meshes, and we prove that the resulting schemes guarantee the positivity of the water depth.
