Multiple Solutions for a Class of Nonhomogeneous Fractional Schrödinger Equations in $$\mathbb {R}^{N}$$

This paper is concerned with the following fractional Schrödinger equation

$$\begin{aligned} \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} (-\Delta )^{s} u+u= k(x)f(u)+h(x) \text{ in } \mathbb {R}^{N}\\ u\in H^{s}(\mathbb {R}^{N}), \, u>0 \text{ in } \mathbb {R}^{N}, \end{array} \right. \end{aligned}$$

where \(s\in (0,1),N> 2s, (-\Delta )^{s}\) is the fractional Laplacian, k is a bounded positive function, \(h\in L^{2}(\mathbb {R}^{N}), h\not \equiv 0\) is nonnegative and f is either asymptotically linear or superlinear at infinity. By using the s-harmonic extension technique and suitable variational methods, we prove the existence of at least two positive solutions for the problem under consideration, provided that \(|h|_{2}\) is sufficiently small.

Transfer model and kinetic characteristics of $${\rm NH}_{4}^{+}$$ –K+ ion exchange on K-zeolite

Based on the mass transfer theory, a new mass transfer model of ion-exchange process on zeolite under liquid film diffusion control is established, and the kinetic curves and the mass transfer coefficients of –K⁺ ion-exchange under different conditions were systemically determined using the shallow-bed experimental method. The results showed that the –K⁺ ion-exchange rates and transfer coefficients are directly proportional to solution flow rate and temperature, and inversely proportional to solution viscosity and the size of zeolite granules. It also showed that the transfer coefficient is not influenced by the ion concentrations. For a large ranges of operational conditions including temperatures (10 − 75°C), flow rates (0.031 m s⁻¹ −0.26 m s⁻¹), liquid viscosities (1.002 × 10⁻³ N s m⁻² − 4.44 × 10⁻³ N s m⁻²), and zeolite granular sizes (0.2 − 1.45 mm), the average mass transfer coefficients calculated by the model agree with the experimental results very well.

Existence and Stability of Time Periodic Solution to the Compressible Navier–Stokes–Korteweg System on $${\mathbb{R}^3}$$

The compressible Navier–Stokes–Korteweg system is considered on \({\mathbb{R}^3}\) when the external force is periodic in the time variable. The existence of a time periodic solution is proved for a sufficiently small external force by using the time-T-map related to the linearized problem around the motionless state with constant density and absolute temperature. The spectral properties of the time-T-map is investigated by a potential theoretic method and an energy method in some weighted spaces. The stability of the time periodic solution is proved for sufficiently small initial perturbations. It is also shown that the \({L^\infty}\) norm of the perturbation decays as time goes to infinity.

Interaction solutions for a reduced extended $$\mathbf{(3}\varvec{+}{} \mathbf{1)}$$ ( 3 + 1 ) -dimensional Jimbo–Miwa equation

Heavy-duty industrial robots have great advantages in the manufacturing industry. Considering the heavy process load and low stiffness of the robot, an accurate and efficient dynamic model plays an important role in the behavior analysis and performance improvement in the robot. This paper presents a novel methodology for the inverse dynamic analysis of the heavy-duty industrial robot with elastic joints. In particular, high-order kinematics and dynamics are concisely deduced using Lie group to deal with elastic joints for the robot inverse dynamic analysis. Meanwhile, position errors of the end-effector due to elastic joints are evaluated through the inverse dynamic analysis when the robot is in heavy-duty applications. Compared with previous approaches, the advantage of proposed method is that new formulas for inverse dynamic analysis are shown to be more concise and computationally efficient using Lie group. Moreover, the position error evaluation method considering dynamic forces is proved to be more accurate than the traditional method when the robot is in the high-speed application. Because of the high computational efficiency and accurate evaluation results, the proposed approach is applicable to trajectory optimization and position error compensation, especially for the robot in heavy-load and high-speed applications.

In particular, under the assumption that the Hamiltonian \({H\in C^2({\mathbb R}^n)}\) is uniformly convex, we prove that D _x u and ? _t u belong to the class SBV _loc (Ω).

     

A k–$${\varepsilon}$$ turbulence closure model of an isothermal dry granular dense matter

The turbulent flow characteristics of an isothermal dry granular dense matter with incompressible grains are investigated by the proposed first-order k–\({\varepsilon}\) turbulence closure model. Reynolds-filter process is applied to obtain the balance equations of the mean fields with two kinematic equations describing the time evolutions of the turbulent kinetic energy and dissipation. The first and second laws of thermodynamics are used to derive the equilibrium closure relations satisfying turbulence realizability conditions, with the dynamic responses postulated by a quasi-linear theory. The established closure model is applied to analyses of a gravity-driven stationary flow down an inclined moving plane. While the mean velocity decreases monotonically from its value on the moving plane toward the free surface, the mean porosity increases exponentially; the turbulent kinetic energy and dissipation evolve, respectively, from their minimum and maximum values on the plane toward their maximum and minimum values on the free surface. The evaluated mean velocity and porosity correspond to the experimental outcomes, while the turbulent dissipation distribution demonstrates a similarity to that of Newtonian fluids in turbulent shear flows. When compared to the zero-order model, the turbulent eddy evolution tends to enhance the transfer of the turbulent kinetic energy and plane shearing across the flow layer, resulting in more intensive turbulent fluctuation in the upper part of the flow. Solid boundary as energy source and sink of the turbulent kinetic energy becomes more apparent in the established first-order model.     

Optimal Time Decay of the Vlasov–Poisson–Boltzmann System in $${\mathbb R^3}$$

The Vlasov–Poisson–Boltzmann System governs the time evolution of the distribution function for dilute charged particles in the presence of a self-consistent electric potential force through the Poisson equation. In this paper, we are concerned with the rate of convergence of solutions to equilibrium for this system over \mathbb R³{\mathbb R^3}. It is shown that the electric field, which is indeed responsible for the lowest-order part in the energy space, reduces the speed of convergence, hence the dispersion of this system over the full space is slower than that of the Boltzmann equation without forces; the exact L ²-rate for the former is (1 + t)^−1/4 while it is (1 + t)^−3/4 for the latter. For the proof, in the linearized case with a given non-homogeneous source, Fourier analysis is employed to obtain time-decay properties of the solution operator. In the nonlinear case, the combination of the linearized results and the nonlinear energy estimates with the help of the proper Lyapunov-type inequalities leads to the optimal time-decay rate of perturbed solutions under some conditions on initial data.
