Analytical formulas for complex permittivity of periodic composites. Estimation of gain and loss enhancement in active and passive composites

ABSTRACT

The asymptotic homogenization method is applied to complex dielectric periodic composites. An equivalence to coupled dielectric problems with real coefficients is shown. This is similar to a piezoelectric problem: an out-plane mechanical displacement and an in-plane electric potential establishing a correspondence principle. Closed-form formulas for the complex dielectric effective tensor in the case of a square array of circular inclusions embedded in a matrix are given. These formulas are written in terms of a real and symmetric matrix which facilitates the implementation of the computational scheme. We also get similar formulas for multilayered complex dielectric composites. The real closed-form formulas are advantageous for estimating gain and loss enhancement properties of active and passive composites in certain volume fraction intervals. Numerical computations are performed and the results are compared with other approaches showing the usefulness of the obtained formulas. This may be of interest in the context of metamaterials.

大型多支承变刚度回转窑支承载荷分配问题

回转窑是冶金、水泥、耐火材料生产中的核心设备，是一种重载、大扭矩、多支点、静不定运行系统，由于其载荷和刚度分布复杂、各支承存在偏移，作用在它托轮上的支承载荷分配严重不均。本文针对回转窑载荷和刚度分布的特点，建立支承载荷求解的力学模型和线性方程组，导出支承载荷分配与支承偏差的关系式；用该方法对现场回转窑进行计算，得出该窑支承载荷分配的线性公式和一些分析结论，为生产中回转窑的状态分析、优化调控提供依据。     

Trace formulas for additive and non-additive perturbations

Trace formulas for pairs of self-adjoint, maximal dissipative and accumulative as well as other types of resolvent comparable operators are obtained. In particular, the existence of a complex-valued spectral shift function for a pair {H^′,H}$\{H^{\prime },H\}$ of maximal accumulative operators has been proved. We investigate also the existence of a real-valued spectral shift function. Moreover, we treat in detail the case of additive trace class perturbations. Assuming that H   and H^′=H+V$H^{\prime }=H+V$ are maximal accumulative and V is trace class, we prove the existence of a summable   complex-valued spectral shift function. We also obtain trace formulas for pairs {H,H^?}$\{H,H^{?}\}$assuming only that H and  H^?$H^{?}$are resolvent comparable. In this case the determinant of the characteristic function of H is involved in trace formulas.     

Random k‐SAT and the power of two choices

We study an Achlioptas‐process version of the random k‐SAT process: a bounded number of k‐clauses are drawn uniformly at random at each step, and exactly one added to the growing formula according to a particular rule. We prove the existence of a rule that shifts the satisfiability threshold. This extends a well‐studied area of probabilistic combinatorics (Achlioptas processes) to random CSP's. In particular, while a rule to delay the 2‐SAT threshold was known previously, this is the first proof of a rule to shift the threshold of k‐SAT for . We then propose a gap decision problem based upon this semi‐random model. The aim of the problem is to investigate the hardness of the random k‐SAT decision problem, as opposed to the problem of finding an assignment or certificate of unsatisfiability. Finally, we discuss connections to the study of Achlioptas random graph processes. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Random Struct. Alg., 47, 163–173, 2015     

Functions averages over the roots of unity,cauchy problems and addition formulas

An averaging operator over the roots of unity is defined on a class of analytic functions and its algebraic and analytic properties are investigated. A Cauchy like integral formula for this is obtained. This operator and its properties are then employed to solve higher order Cauchy problems, to derive addition formulas for hypergeometric functions and to obtain integral representations for special classes of hypergeometric functions.     

Modified Kramers formulas for the decay rate in agreement with dynamical modeling

Accuracy of the Kramers approximate formulas for the thermal decay rate of the metastable state is studied for the anharmonic shapes of the potential pocket and the barrier. This is done by the comparison with the quasistationary rate resulting from the dynamical modeling. Disagreement between the Kramers rate and the dynamical one is shown to reach 15% in the cases when much better agreement is expected. Corrections to the Kramers formulas accounting for the higher derivatives of the potential are obtained. The small parameters are the ratios of the thermal energy to the stiffnesses at the extremes of the potential. The distance between the potential barrier and the absorptive border is accounted for as well. This corrected Kramers rate is demonstrated to agree with the dynamical rate typically within 2%. Probably the most interesting result is that despite the corrections are derived in the case of the overdamped Brownian motion, the above 2% agreement holds even in the case of medium friction.
