Evolution of Zn based high purity phases under NH3 gas atmosphere and their PL properties

We report here the evolution of zinc based high purity phases with novel morphologies such as Zn₃N₂ hollow structures, ZnO nanowires and nanopowders, as well as metallic Zn layered hexagonal microparticles at progressively increased reaction temperature of 600 °C, 700 °C, 800 °C under NH₃ gas atmosphere using Zn powder precursor and keeping all other experimental parameters unchanged. Growth mechanism for Zn₃N₂ obtained by nitridation, ZnO by oxidation and Zn microparticles via thermal evaporation & condensation process are discussed briefly. The as-synthesized products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Photoluminescence (PL) studies have revealed very interesting and infrequently observed emission bands at 378 and 661 nm for Zn₃N₂, 359 and 396 nm for ZnO as well as 389 nm for Zn polyhedral microparticles.

Piezoelectric coefficients of cross-linked polypropylene films stretched at elevated temperatures

Cross-linked polypropylene (XPP) foams are modified by a hot-stretching process and charged to be piezoelectric. The results show that a piezoelectric d₃₃ -coefficient of 308pC/N is obtained for sample with an elongation ratio of 200%. The dynamic d₃₃ value is smaller than the quasi-static value, which is probably due to the rise of Young’s modulus with increasing frequency. All the samples show pressure-independent d₃₃ in the range up to 30 kPa. Improved d₃₃ was obtained in the sample rough surface exposed to the corona during charging. Compared to linear PP, the stretched XPP shows pressure independence of d₃₃ in larger range.     

Integrating neighborhoods in the evaluation of fitness promotes cooperation in the spatial prisoner’s dilemma game

A fundamental question of human society is the evolution of cooperation. Many previous studies explored this question via setting spatial background, where players obtain their payoffs by playing game with their nearest neighbors. Another undoubted fact is that the environment plays an important role in the individual development. Inspired by these phenomena, we reconsider the definition of individual fitness which integrates the environment, denoted by the average payoff of all individual neighbors, with the traditional individual payoffs by introducing a selection parameter u. Tuning u equal to zero returns the traditional version, while increasing u bears the influence of environment. We find that considering the environment, i.e., integrating neighborhoods in the evaluation of fitness, promotes cooperation. If we enhance the value of u, the invasion of defection could be resisted better. We also provide quantitative explanations and complete phase diagrams presenting the influence of the environment on the evolution of cooperation. Finally, the universality of this mechanism is testified for different neighborhood sizes, different topology structures and different game models. Our work may shed light on the emergence and persistence of cooperation in our life.     

Evolution of cooperation among mobile agents with heterogenous view radii

In this paper, we study cooperative behavior among mobile agents; the agents have heterogenous view radii and they play the prisoner’s dilemma game with those being within their vision fields. It is found that the cooperation level is remarkably promoted when the heterogeneity of view radii is considered, and the degree distribution of the system is investigated to explain this interesting phenomenon. Moreover, we report that the cooperative behavior is best favored by low density, moderate view radius, and small moving speed. Our findings may be helpful in understanding cooperative behavior in natural and social systems consisting of mobile agents.     

RMSECV曲线筛选光谱波段算法

提出了一种利用偏最小二乘回归系数矩阵筛选光谱波段的算法。该算法利用偏最小二乘回归系数作为筛选光谱波长的依据,参考(root-mean-squares error of cross-validation,RMSECV)曲线,使初选波长数大大降低。在此基础上通过循环选择将无效信息光谱波长剔除,同时增强了所建模型的预测精确性。通过生产过程的Raman光谱数据验证,该算法比传统的利用回归系数筛选波长的算法更好地提高了模型的精确性,同时降低了模型的复杂程度,是一种高效实用的算法。

Riemann problems for three-dimensional combustion models

We investigate Chapman-Jouguet models in three-dimensional space by means of generalized char- acteristic analysis. The interaction of detonation, shock waves and contact discontinuity is discussed intensively in this paper. If contact discontinuity appears, the structure of global solutions becomes complex. We deal with this problem when strength of detonation is small.     

Steady flow in a deformable porous medium

A nonlinear model for a steady flow in a deformable porous medium is considered. The flow is governed by the poroelasticity system consisting of an elasticity equation for the displacement of the porous medium and Darcy's equation for the pressure in the fluid. This poroelasticity system is nonlinear when the permeability in Darcy's equation is assumed to depend on the dilatation of the porous medium. Existence and uniqueness of a weak solution of this poroelasticity system is established under rather weak assumptions on the regularity of the data. Convergence of a finite element approximation is proved and verified through numerical experiments. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
