Photoacoustic investigation of the effective diffusivity of two-layer semiconductors

The problem of the effective thermal diffusivity of two-layer systems is investigated using the photoacoustic spectroscopy. The experimental results are examined in terms of the effective thermal parameters of the composite system determined from a homogeneous material that produces the same physical response under an external perturbation in the detector device. It is shown that the effective thermal conductivity is not symmetric under exchange of the two layers of the composite, i.e. the effective thermal parameters depend upon which layer is illuminated in the photoacoustic experiments. Particular emphasis is given to the characterization of the interface thermal conductivity between the layer system.

Prenatal stress and subsequent exposure to chronic mild stress influence dendritic spine density and morphology in the rat medial prefrontal cortex

Background  

Both prenatal stress (PS) and postnatal chronic mild stress (CMS) are associated with behavioral and mood disturbances in humans and rodents. The aim of this study was to reveal putative PS- and/or CMS-related changes in basal spine morphology and density of pyramidal neurons in the rat medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC).     

High-order strand grid methods for shock turbulence interaction

ABSTRACT

In this work, we examine the flux correction method for three-dimensional transonic turbulent flows on strand grids. Building upon previous work, we treat flux derivatives along strands with high-order summation-by-parts operators and penalty-based boundary conditions. A finite-volume like limiting strategy is implemented in the flux correction algorithm in order to sharply capture shocks. To achieve turbulence closure in the Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes equations, a robust version of the Spalart–Allmaras turbulence model is employed that accommodates negative values of the turbulence working variable. Validation studies are considered which demonstrate the flux correction method achieves a high degree of accuracy for turbulent shock interaction flows.     

Pt^＋（^2D）催化H2O和CH4制取水煤气循环反应的理论探究

采用密度泛函理论（DFT）B3LYP方法和非迭代三激发电子相关耦合簇CCSD（T）方法研究了二重态和四重态势能面上由Pt＋（2D,4F）催化H2O和CH4产生水煤气的循环反应.采用分子轨道（MO）理论和自然键轨道（NBO）理论对最低能量路径的反应势能面作了详细的分析说明.应用Kozuch撰写的能量跨度模型（energetic span model）确定了决定循环反应速率的决速过渡态（TDTS）和决速中间体（TDI）,最后计算了催化剂的转化频率（TOF）以评价催化剂的性能.
