Dynamics and steady-state analysis of a consumer-resource model

This paper is concerned with the dynamics of a consumer-resource reaction diffusion model in the heterogeneous environment, proposed by Zhang et al. (2017). We use the comparison principle to improve the ultimate bounds step by step, and show that the unique steady state is globally asymptotically stable if the resources are fully limited uniformly in space and consumer population abundance is homogeneous in space.     

镍基合金掺杂W、Mo原子在γ/γ＇相界面扩散机理研究

运用基于密度泛函理论的第一性原理,研究掺杂W、Mo在镍基高温合金的沉淀强化γ′相分配差异的因素.通过VASP软件,建立γ′-Ni₃(Al_3/8Ti_5/8)相的体系模型,选取非等效位置的不同阵点,计算W、Mo原子在不同位置的替代形成能,分析W、Mo在γ′相的占位倾向;计算掺杂W、Mo原子前后,界面的吸附能,研究掺杂W、Mo对相界的影响;计算W、Mo原子从γ向γ′相扩散,获得W、Mo扩散的路径与势垒.结果表明,W、Mo的掺杂优先替代γ′-Ni₃(Al_3/8Ti_5/8)相5号Al原子,并提高相界的稳定性;分配的差异是W相比于Mo替代γ′相位置的Al原子更易形成空位,而γ相中的Ni原子较难形成空位,且逆扩散所需能量更多导致的.     

Crystal growth,spectral characterization and structural studies of a luminescent coordination polymer of calcium(II) complex of benzilic acid

Single crystals of a new calcium(II) complex of benzilic acid, [Ca(C₁₄H₁₁O₃)₂(C₁₄H₁₂O₃)₂] have been successfully grown by gel diffusion technique at room temperature. Single crystal X-ray diffraction study reveals that the compound belongs to orthorhombic system with space group Fddd. The adjacent CaO₈ units are linked via O–H–O interaction to form one dimensional polymeric chains. The extensive hydrogen bonding interactions lead to a supramolecular structure. The grown crystals were further characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, UV–Visible, thermogravimetric, powder X-ray diffraction and solid state photoluminescence studies.     

Influence of Differential Diffusion on Super-Equilibrium Temperature in Turbulent Non-Premixed Hydrogen/Air Flames

In this paper we wish to investigate the occurrence of super-equilibrium temperature values, observed in many experimental configurations. We would like to understand the origin of this phenomenon. Previous authors have already shown that differential diffusion can lead to considerable changes in the temperature field and we would like to build on top of this observation. We investigate numerically super-equilibrium combustion by considering both laminar counter-flow and turbulent diluted hydrogen/air diffusion flames. These turbulent flames are computed using direct numerical simulations (DNS). A detailed reaction mechanism is employed and the transport properties are modeled using multicomponent diffusion velocities, including the Soret effect. Analyzing these results we introduce three complementary parameters (dilution-free mixture fraction, dilution excess and local enthalpy) to describe the local combustion conditions. Introducing a measure of dilution separately from the mixture fraction is necessary for a proper analysis. Using this set of parameters it becomes possible to explain super-equilibrium temperature levels as a consequence of differential diffusion.     

On the numerical solution of tracked vehicle dynamic equations

In this investigation, the solution of the nonlinear dynamic equations of the multibody tracked vehicle systems are obtained using different procedures. In the first technique, which is based on the augmented formulation that employes the absolute Cartesian coordinates and Lagrange multipliers, the generalized coordinate partitioning of the constraint Jacobian matrix is used to determine the independent coordinates and the associated independent differential equations. An iterative Newton-Raphson algorithm is used to solve the nonlinear constraint equations for the dependent variables. The numerical problems encountered when one set of independent coordinates is used during the simulation of large scale tracked vehicle systems are demonstrated and their relationship to the track dynamics is discussed. The second approach employed in this investigation is the velocity transformation technique. One of the versions of this technique is discussed in this paper and the numerical problems that arise from the use of inconsistent system of kinematic equations are reported. In the velocity transformation technique, the tracked vehicle system is assumed to consist of two kinematically decoupled subsystems; the first subsystem consists of the chassis, the rollers, the sprocket and the idler, while the second subsystem consists of the track which is represented as a closed kinematic chain that consists of rigid links connected by revolute joints. It is demonstrated that the use of one set of recursive equations leads to numerical difficulties because of the change in the track configuration. Singular configurations can be avoided by repeated changes in the recursive equations. The sensitivity of the predictor-corrector multistep numerical integration schemes to the method of formulating the state equations is demonstrated. The numerical results presented in this investigation are obtained using a planner tracked vehicle model that consists of fifty four rigid bodies.     

On the influence of singular-type finite elements on the critical force in studying the buckling of a circular plate with a crack

The axisymmetric buckling (delamination) of a circular disk (plate) with a penny-shaped crack is analyzed using a continuum model, piecewise-homogeneous model, and the three-dimensional linearized theory of stability. The FEM is used. The analysis is carried out using various singular and ordinary finite elements. The numerical results obtained indicate that it is not necessary to use singular finite elements to solve the problem Published in Prikladnaya Mekhanika, Vol. 43, No. 9, pp. 120–129, September 2007.

基于拓扑描述函数的连续体结构拓扑优化方法

提出了一种利用拓扑描述函数(TDF)作为拓扑设计变量求解连续体结构拓扑优化问题 的新方法. 优化问题的目标函数是结构的整体柔顺性，约束条件为对于可利用材料的体积限 制. 这种方法不仅可以消除拓扑优化中经常出现的棋盘格式等数值不稳定现象，而且能够有 效地抑制传统算法处理此类优化问题时所引发的边界扩散效应. 与其它的基于水平集描述函 数的拓扑优化方法相比，所提出的算法不仅无需求解控制水平集函数演化的双曲守恒方 程，而且合理地考虑了目标函数的拓扑导数信息，因而使得算法的计算效率有了显著的提高.
