Superconductivity and unconventional density waves in vanadium-based kagome materials AV3Sb5

Recently, the discovery of vanadium-based kagome metal AV₃Sb₅ (A= K, Rb, Cs) has attracted great interest in the field of superconductivity due to the coexistence of superconductivity, non-trivial surface state and multiple density waves. In this topical review, we present recent works of superconductivity and unconventional density waves in vanadium-based kagome materials AV₃Sb₅. We start with the unconventional charge density waves, which are thought to correlate to the time-reversal symmetry-breaking orders and the unconventional anomalous Hall effects in AV₃Sb₅. Then we discuss the superconductivity and the topological band structure. Next, we review the competition between the superconductivity and charge density waves under different conditions of pressure, chemical doping, thickness, and strains. Finally, the experimental evidence of pseudogap pair density wave is discussed.     

Decay rate for viscoelastic wave equation of variable coefficients with delay and dynamic boundary conditions

In this paper, we consider a viscoelastic wave equation of variable coefficients in the presence of past history with nonlinear damping and delay in the internal feedback and dynamic boundary conditions. Under suitable assumptions, we establish an explicit and general decay rate result without imposing restrictive assumption on the behavior of the relaxation function at infinity by Riemannian geometry method and Lyapunov functional method.     

Fusionable and fissionable waves of (2+1)-dimensional shallow water wave equation

We investigate a (2+1)-dimensional shallow water wave equation and describe its nonlinear dynamical behaviors in physics. Based on the N-soliton solutions, the higher-order fissionable and fusionable waves, fissionable or fusionable waves mixed with soliton molecular and breather waves can be obtained by various constraints of special parameters. At the same time, by the long wave limit method, the interaction waves between fissionable or fusionable waves with higher-order lumps are acquired. Combined with the dynamic figures of the waves, the properties of the solution are deeply studied to reveal the physical significance of the waves.

Dielectric loss and electromagnetic absorption performance study of 1T/2H-MoS2/Mo2S3 nanocomposites with different ratios

High dielectric loss materials have an important application in electromagnetic (EM) absorption fields. In this paper, the ternary nanocomposites: 1T/2H-MoS₂/Mo₂S₃ with heterogeneous interfaces are synthesized by hydrothermal method. XRD, XPS, FTIR, SEM, and TEM measurements are applied to study the structure, morphology, and composition. The frequency spectra of complex permittivity (ε_r-f) are measured in 2–18 GHz by vector network analyzer. The results show that the nanocomposites have higher dielectric loss angle tangents than the reported 2H-MoS₂ absorbers. Based on the ε_r-f spectra, the reflection loss-frequency curves ($RL-f$) are simulated at given thicknesses. An effective absorption bandwidth of 5.2 GHz (12.8–18 GHz) and a $RL$ peak of −29.49 dB are achieved in a thin thickness of 1.62 mm, which are comparable to the reported 2H-MoS₂ absorbers with complex composition, showing that the 1T/2H-MoS₂/Mo₂S₃ nanocomposites have great application potential as an EM wave absorber in the K_u band.     

Widely linear equalization for IQ imbalance contaminated multicarrier systems

In a multicarrier modulated (MCM) wireless communication system, the received bandpass signal is downconverted to the baseband signal for ease of receive processing. During downconversion, a slight mismatch in the amplitude and phase of locally generated sinusoidal signal in the In-Phase and Quadrature (IQ) branches of downconverter results in IQ imbalance of the baseband signal. The IQ imbalance leads to mirror interference between subcarriers of an MCM system and degrades the performance. To compensate for the effects of IQ imbalance, this paper presents widely linear minimum mean square error (WL-MMSE) based equalization technique and compares it with the traditionally used linear minimum mean square error (L-MMSE) based equalization technique. A performance comparison between WL-MMSE and L-MMSE based estimation techniques in terms of mean square error (MSE) and bit error rate (BER) suggests that the former outperforms the latter in the presence of IQ imbalance.     

Experimental and theoretical investigation of CO2 and air bubble rising velocity through kerosene and distilled water in bubble column

This paper concerns with developing of parameters which influence terminal velocities of air and CO₂ bubbles in distilled water and kerosene pools. The objective of this study is to validate and correct the formulas that were developed by previous investigators for prediction of terminal velocities. The investigation revealed that the terminal velocity of a single rigid spherical bubble in Newtonian fluids can be developed by balancing of mechanical forces acting on the bubble. However, for large bubbles, because of deforming of the bubble which is a result of interfacial tension, the effect of surface tension should be considered in the terminal velocity prediction formula. By using PSO algorithm and plotting experimental data of terminal velocity against the size of gas bubbles, the suitable equation for each of systems was chosen. Results showed that Jamialahmadi model is more practical for terminal velocity prediction. Jamialahmadi model requires a modification to be utilized for air-kerosene, CO₂-kerosene, air- distilled water and CO₂-distilled water systems. The developed PSO algorithm model is accurate for prediction of experimental data with an average R² value of 0.9722.     

An improved depth-averaged nonhydrostatic shallow water model with quadratic pressure approximation

Phase-resolved information is necessary for many coastal wave problems, for example, for the wave conditions in the vicinity of harbor structures. Two-dimensional (2D) depth-averaging shallow water models are commonly used to obtain a phase-resolved solution near the coast. These models are in general more computationally effective compared with computational fluid dynamics software and will be even more capable if equipped with a parallelized code. In the current article, a 2D wave model solving the depth-averaged continuity equation and the Euler equations is implemented in the open-source hydrodynamic code REEF3D. The model is based on a nonhydrostatic extension and a quadratic vertical pressure profile assumption, which provides a better approximation of the frequency dispersion. It is the first model of its kind to employ high-order discretization schemes and to be fully parallelized following the domain decomposition strategy. Wave generation and absorption are achieved with a relaxation method. The simulations of nonlinear long wave propagations and transformations over nonconstant bathymetries are presented. The results are compared with benchmark wave propagation cases. A large-scale wave propagation simulation over realistic irregular topography is shown to demonstrate the model's capability of solving operational large-scale problems.     

水流损失和热补偿共同作用对增强型地热系统(EGS)产能影响的研究

基于青海共和盆地-3705m地热田实测数据,结合流固耦合传热理论并运用Comsol软件,建立了离散型裂隙岩体流体传热模型。考虑水流损失和热补偿共同作用,模拟得到了开采过程中上、下岩层(盖层和垫层)为绝热不渗透、传热不渗透、渗透传热时,储层(上、下岩层和压裂层)温度场的变化特征,分析了产出流量、水流损失、产出温度、产热速率的变化规律。研究结果表明:采热过程中产出流量始终小于注入流量;产出流量增幅速率先增大后减小,最后趋于稳定,前3a产出流量增幅超过总增幅量的3/4;忽略水流损失,将高估产热速率,采热初期甚至达到考虑水流损失时产热速率的3倍以上;考虑水流损失,产热速率呈先快速上升再趋于稳定后逐渐下降的趋势,最优开采时间为3a^11a;研究上、下岩层对产出温度的影响,仅考虑传热,采热寿命延长5.43%,同时考虑渗流传热时,采热寿命延长2.71%;采热前9a,水流损失占主导作用,即流入上、下岩层水流损失对产热速率的影响高于热补偿效应,开采10a后,热补偿效应占主导作用;同时考虑水流损失和热补偿效应得到的产热速率变化规律与实际工程更为符合,建议选择低渗透能力的上、下岩层延长增强型地热系统(EGS)运行时间。
