Corners of self-conjugate (s,s + 1)-cores and (s‾,s+1‾)-cores

In this paper, we describe a result on self-conjugate $(s,s+1)$-core partitions with the fixed number of corners. We also define shifted corners of a distinct partition and find formulas for the number of $(\stackrel{￣}{s},\stackrel{￣}{s+1})$-core partitions and the number of $(s,s+1)$-core shifted Young diagrams with the fixed number of shifted corners.     

Multivariate optimization and comparison between conventional extraction (CE) and ultrasonic-assisted extraction (UAE) of carotenoid extraction from cashew apple

Carotenoids are an essential component of cashew and can be used in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, natural pigment, food additives, among other applications. The present work focuses on optimizing and comparing conventional and ultrasound-assisted extraction methods. Every optimization step took place with a 1:1 (w:w) mixture of yellow and red cashew apples lyophilized and ground in a cryogenic mill. A Simplex-centroid design was applied for both methods, and the solvents acetone, methanol, ethanol, and petroleum ether were evaluated. After choosing the extractor solvent, a central composite design was applied to optimize the sample mass (59–201 mg) and extraction time (6–34 min). The optimum conditions for the extractor solvent were 38% acetone, 30% ethanol, and 32% petroleum ether for CE and a mixture of 44% acetone and 56% methanol for UAE. The best experimental conditions for UAE were a sonication time of 19 min and a sample mass of 153 mg, while the CE was 23 min and 136 mg. Comparing red and yellow cashews, red cashews showed a higher carotenoid content in both methodologies. The UAE methodology was ca. 21% faster, presented a more straightforward composition of extracting solution, showed an average yield of superior carotenoid content in all samples compared to CE. Therefore, UAE has demonstrated a simple, efficient, fast, low-cost adjustment methodology and a reliable alternative for other applications involving these bioactive compounds in the studied or similar matrix.     

介观电路中量子纠缠的经典对应

从量子力学诞生日起,它的经典对应(或类比)一直是物理学家关心的话题.本文以介观电路量子化的框架中,带有互感的两个介观电容-电感(LC)电路为例,首次讨论了量子纠缠的经典类比(或对应)问题.先用有序算符内的积分理论证明其互感是产生量子纠缠的源头;再推导出求解特征频率的公式,就发现它与一个经典系统的小振动频率的表达式有相似之处,该经典系统组成如下:两个墙壁各连一个相同的弹簧,两个弹簧之间接着一个滑动小车可以在光滑的桌面上运动,小车挂有一根单摆.用分析力学求此系统的小振动频率,发现与上述介观电路的特征频率形式类似,单摆的摆动会造成小车来回振动,摆、小车和弹簧的互相牵制效应反映了小车和摆的"纠缠".

粗糙表面之间接触热阻反问题研究

当两个固体表面相互接触时,由于接触面粗糙度的影响,界面间就形成了非一致接触,这种接触导致热流收缩,进而产生接触热阻. 目前的理论研究主要集中在正问题研究,对反问题的研究相对较少. 接触热阻反问题研究是通过研究部分边界温度、热流和部分测量点的温度来反演得到界面上的接触热阻. 反问题研究在很多工程领域都有应用,如航空航天、机械制造、微电子等,是工程中确定接触热阻一种快速有效的方法. 本文采用边界元法和共轭梯度法研究了二维空间随坐标变化的接触热阻反问题. 为了验证方法的准确性和可行性,假定在已知部分测量点温度和真实接触热阻的情况下,反演计算得到界面的温度和热流,进而得到接触热阻,并与真实接触热阻进行比较. 结果表明采用边界元法和共轭梯度法在无测量误差的情况下,可以准确反演获得界面的真实接触热阻. 若存在测量误差,反演计算结果对测量误差极其敏感,反演结果误差会由于测量误差的引入而被放大. 为处理这种不适定性, 采用最小二乘法对反演计算结果进行校正,结果表明采用最小二乘法能够避开反问题中一些偏离实际值较大的测量点,显著提高反演计算结果的准确性.      

浅水区海底管道周围海床渗透压力计算研究

我国海上油田开采起步较晚，大部分油田处于浅水区，因此，在设计管道时，应充分考虑由浅水区波浪引起的管道周围海床渗流力。根据浅水波相关假设，考虑自由水面非线性影响，推导出椭圆余弦波的波面方程，在此基础上进一步得到一个关于速度势的表达式，并根据该表达式得出作用于海床表面的波压公式。考虑海床土的压缩性，推导出一阶近似椭圆余弦波作用下浅水区埋置管道周围海床的渗流压力解析解，最后将计算结果与大型水槽试验及以往研究成果作对比。结果表明，在椭圆余弦波的作用下，由一阶椭圆余弦波理论得到的计算结果与试验结果规律基本一致，与相似工况下的现有理论成果数值基本相同，具有一定的可行性和工程价值。     

Highly Effective Detection of Amitraz in Honey by Using Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering Spectroscopy Coupled with Chemometric Methods

As an effective and universal acaricide, amitraz is widely used on beehives against varroasis caused by the mite Varroa jacobsoni. Its residues in honey pose a great danger to human health. In this study, a sensitive, rapid, and environmentally friendly surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy method (SERS) was developed for the determination of trace amount of amitraz in honey with the use of silver nanorod (AgNR) array substrate. The AgNR array substrate fabricated by an oblique angle deposition technique exhibited an excellent SERS activity with an enhancement factor of ∽10⁷. Density function theory was employed to assign the characteristic peak of amitraz. The detection of amitraz was further explored and amitraz in honey at concentrations as low as 0.08 mg/kg can be identified. Specifically, partial least square regression analysis was employed to correlate the SERS spectra in full-wavelength with C_amitraz to afford a multiple-quantitative amitraz predicting model. Preliminary results show that the predicted concentrations of amitraz in honey samples are in good agreement with their real concentrations. Compared with the conventional univariate quantitative model based on single peak’s intensity, the proposed multiple-quantitative predicting model integrates all the characteristic peaks of amitraz, thus offering an improved detecting accuracy and anti-interference ability.
