A hybrid level set method for modelling detonation and combustion problems in complex geometries

We present an accurate and fast wave tracking method that uses parametric representations of tracked fronts, combined with modifications of level set methods that use narrow bands. Our strategy generates accurate computations of the front curvature and other geometric properties of the front. We introduce data structures that can store discrete representations of the location of the moving fronts and boundaries, as well as the corresponding level set fields, that are designed to reduce computational overhead and memory storage. We present an algorithm we call stack sweeping to efficiently sort and store data that is used to represent orientable fronts. Our implementation features two reciprocal procedures, a forward ‘front parameterization’ that constructs a parameterization of a front given a level set field and a backward ‘field construction’ that constructs an approximation of the signed normal distance to the front, given a parameterized representation of the front. These reciprocal procedures are used to achieve and maintain high spatial accuracy. Close to the front, precise computation of the normal distance is carried out by requiring that displacement vectors from grid points to the front be along a normal direction. For front curves in two dimensions, a cubic interpolation scheme is used, and G ¹ surface parameterization based on triangular patches is used for the three-dimensional implementation to compute the distances from grid points near the front. To demonstrate this new, high accuracy method we present validations and show examples of combustion-like applications that include detonation shock dynamics, material interface motions in a compressible multi-material simulation and the Stephan problem associated with dendrite solidification.     

LARGE SCALE,EFFICIENT SYNTHESIS OF 9-UNSUBSTITUTED DIPYRRINONE

ABSTRACT

9-Unsubstituted dipyrrinone 8, the useful precursor for the synthesis of biliverdins, bilirubins, and other bile pigments, was synthesized in large scale and high yield starting from acetaldehyde and nitroethane in eight steps with overall yield 10%. The key intermediate 3,4-dimethyl-2-ethoxycarbonylpyrrole 3 was synthesized via Zard–Barton's method in high yield.     

Facile preparation of hydrogenated graphene by hydrothermal methods and the investigation of its ferromagnetism

In this paper, a hydrothermal approach is utilized for the first time in integrating graphene oxide (GO), acetic acid (HAc) and nickel foam to prepare hydrogenated graphene (HG). There are two primary aims of this study: one is to ascertain the structure of the as-prepared HG, and the other one is to investigate the ferromagnetism of the HG. Under hydrothermal conditions, GO was reduced and hydrogenated by HAc, while the nickel foam served as a catalyst. This work provides a novel and facile route for the synthesis of hydrogenated graphene, which may lead to the application of hydrogenated graphene in spin electronic devices.

单面柱局域共振声子晶体低频带隙特性分析及结构改进研究

基于有限元法对单面柱局域共振声子晶体进行带隙特性分析,研究了结构参数对该类型声子晶体的影响。结果表明:随着散射体高度的增加,单面柱声子晶体的第一完全带隙的起始频率逐渐降低,带宽逐渐增大;随着基板厚度的增大,单面柱声子晶体的起始频率逐渐升高,截止频率先增大后减小。并且在经典单面柱声子晶体的基础上,组合了两种新型的三组元单面柱声子晶体结构:嵌入式单面柱声子晶体(以下简称结构Ⅰ)和粘接式单面柱声子晶体(以下简称结构Ⅱ)。通过对其带隙特性的分析得出:这两种新结构与经典的单面柱声子晶体相比,都具有更低频的带隙,这对于低频减振降噪是非常有利的。本文的结果将对实际的工程应用提供一定的理论指导。     

微波加热制备含稀土(La2O3)矿渣微晶玻璃研究

利用矿渣制备微晶玻璃是提高矿产资源利用率的主要形式之一。本文以白云鄂博尾矿为原料,采用微波一步法制备了CaO-MgO-Al₂O₃-SiO₂(CMAS)系辉石相矿渣微晶玻璃。选择835 ℃作为晶化温度,研究了微波加热对微晶玻璃析晶行为和微观组织的影响。以La₂O₃作为研究变量探讨了La₂O₃添加对矿渣微晶玻璃析晶行为的作用。与传统的热处理制度相比,微波加热可以在较短的时间内达到较高的析晶效果。同时La₂O₃的添加促进了晶粒细化。由拉曼光谱分析,La离子添加会导致玻璃网络中桥氧的增多,促进了辉石相析晶。在La的添加量为4%(质量分数)时硬度最高,达到了829.22 MPa。
