Influence of periodic excitation on self-sustained vibrations of one disk rotors in arbitrary length journals bearings

Interaction of forced and self-sustained vibrations of one disk rotor is described by nonlinear finite-degree-of-freedom dynamical system. The shaft of the rotor is supported by two journal bearings. The combination of the shooting technique and the continuation algorithm is used to study the rotor periodic vibrations. The Floquet multipliers are calculated to analyze periodic vibrations stability. The results of periodic motions analysis are shown on the frequency response. The quasi-periodic motions are investigated. These nonlinear vibrations coexist with the periodic forced vibrations.     

基于Fibonacci序列准周期结构的小角度低通空间滤波器

利用常规材料构造了Fibonacci序列准周期结构,运用传输矩阵法研究了该结构的空间传输特性,并基于该结构优良的空间传输特性设计了小角度低通空间滤波器.数值模拟结果表明,该小角度空间滤波器的角域带宽可通过改变序列的结构类型和序列数来调谐,其调谐规律为:随着Fibonacci序列F(m,1)中m值的增加,对应空间滤波器的角域带宽减小;随着序列数的增大,对应角域带宽也减小.在调谐的基础上,还可通过改变构成准周期结构的介质折射率参量来精确调节其角域带宽.相比于基于超材料的小角度空间滤波器而言,基于Fibonacci序列的小角度空间滤波器制备更简单,且有望应用于新一代的高功率激光系统中.     

Dispersion and localisation in structured Rayleigh beams

This paper brings a comparative analysis between dynamic models of couple-stress elastic materials and structured Rayleigh beams on a Winkler foundation. Although physical phenomena have different physical origins, the underlying equations appear to be similar, and hence mathematical models have a lot in common. In the present work, our main focus is on the analysis of dispersive waves, band-gaps and localised waveforms in structured Rayleigh beams. The Rayleigh beam theory includes the effects of rotational inertia which are neglected in the Euler–Bernoulli beam theory. This makes the approach applicable to higher frequency regimes. Special attention is given to waves in pre-stressed Rayleigh beams on elastic foundations.     

Mathematical analysis of plasmonic resonance for 2-D photonic crystal

In this article, we study the plasmonic resonance of infinite photonic crystal mounted by the double negative nanoparticles in two dimensions. The corresponding physical model is described by the Helmholz equation with so called Bloch wave condition in a periodic domain. By using the quasi-periodic layer potential techniques and the spectral theorem of quasi-periodic Neumann–Poincaré operator, the quasi-static expansion of the near field in the presence of nanoparticles is derived. Furthermore, when the magnetic permeability of nanoparticles satisfies the Drude model, we give the conditions under which the plasmonic resonance occurs, and the rate of blow up of near field energy with respect to nanoparticle's bulk electron relaxation rate and filling factor are also obtained. It indicates that one can appropriately control the bulk electron relaxation rate or filling factor of nanoparticle in photonic crystal structure such that the near field energy attains its maximum, and enhancing the efficiency of energy utilization.     

Anderson localization for quasi-periodic CMV matrices and quantum walks

We consider CMV matrices, both standard and extended, with analytic quasi-periodic Verblunsky coefficients and prove Anderson localization in the regime of positive Lyapunov exponents. This establishes the CMV analog of a result Bourgain and Goldstein proved for discrete one-dimensional Schrödinger operators. We also prove a similar result for quantum walks on the integer lattice with suitable analytic quasi-periodic coins.     

Quasi-periodic stability of normally resonant tori

We study quasi-periodic tori under a normal-internal resonance, possibly with multiple eigenvalues. Two non-degeneracy conditions play a role. The first of these generalizes invertibility of the Floquet matrix and prevents drift of the lower dimensional torus. The second condition involves a Kolmogorov-like variation of the internal frequencies and simultaneously versality of the Floquet matrix unfolding. We focus on the reversible setting, but our results carry over to the Hamiltonian and dissipative contexts.     

Effect of quasi-periodic gravitational modulation on the convective instability in Hele-Shaw cell

The aim of the present paper is to examine the effect of a quasi-periodic gravitational modulation on the onset of convective instability in Hele-Shaw cell. The quasi-periodic modulation considered here consists in a modulation having two incommensurate frequencies. This study is an extension of a previous work by Aniss et al. [Asymptotic study of the convective parametric instability in Hele-Shaw cell, Phys. Fluids 12 (2) (2000) 262-268] in which only a periodic gravitational modulation was considered. We have shown that for Pr=O(1) or Pr?1, the gravitational modulation has no effect on the convective threshold as expected. However, for Pr=O(ε²), it turns out that a modulation with two incommensurate frequencies has a stabilizing or a destabilizing effect strongly depending on the frequencies ratio.     

Frequency modules and nonexistence of quasi-periodic solutions of nonlinear evolution equations

This paper gives lower estimates for the frequency modules of almost periodic solutions to equations of the form , where A generates a strongly continuous semigroup in a Banach space , F(t,x) is 2π-periodic in t and continuous in (t,x), and f is almost periodic. We show that the frequency module ℳ(u) of any almost periodic mild solution u of (*) and the frequency module ℳ(f) of f satisfy the estimate e ^{2π iℳ(f)}⊂e ^{2π iℳ(u)}. If F is independent of t, then the estimate can be improved: ℳ(f)⊂ℳ(u). Applications to the nonexistence of quasi-periodic solutions are also given.     

Quasi-periodic solutions of mixed AKNS equations

A hierarchy of new nonlinear evolution equations, which are composed of the positive and negative AKNS flows, is proposed. On the basis of the theory of algebraic curves, the corresponding flows are straightened using the Abel-Jacobi coordinates. The meromorphic function ?, the Baker-Akhiezer vector , and the hyperelliptic curve K_n are introduced and, by using these, quasi-periodic solutions of the first three nonlinear evolution equations in the hierarchy are constructed according to the asymptotic properties and the algebro-geometric characters of ?, and K_n.
