A note of a modular equation of Ramanujan–Selberg continued fraction

The Ramanujan Journal - We show that if $$E/\mathbb {Q}$$ is an elliptic curve with a rational p-torsion for $$p=2$$ or 3, then there is a congruence relation between Ramanujan’s tau function...     

考虑顾客便利半径和质量阈值的竞争设施选址问题

在竞争设施选址问题中,顾客选择行为是决定设施占领市场份额的重要因素,其描述了需求在设施之间的分配方式。为了贴近顾客真实的光顾行为,本文提出了一种考虑顾客便利半径和质量阈值的顾客选择规则,并研究了在该规则下市场中新进入公司的竞争设施选址问题。提出了一种基于排名的遗传算法(RGA)求解该问题,并将该算法与经典遗传算法(GA)和基于排名的离散优化算法(RDOA)进行了比较,结果说明了算法的有效性以及模型中质量阈值的重要性。

These results extend some results obtained by G. F. Lawler about the intersection properties of simple random walks in Z ⁴. By using similar arguments, we also get corresponding results for the intersections of Wiener sausages in four dimensions. In particular, a conjecture suggested by M. Aizenman, which describes nonintersection of independent Wiener sausages in R ⁴, is proven.Partly supported by AvH Foundation.

Three-Dimensional Modeling of the Turbulent Plasma Jet Impinging upon a Flat Plate and with Transverse Particle and Carrier-Gas Injection

Modeling results are presented concerning the turbulent thermal plasma jet impinging normally on a substrate and with transverse injection of feedstock particles and their carrier gas from a single injection tube. The k- two-equation model is employed to model the turbulence, and particle dispersion is studied considering the interaction between the moving particles and turbulent eddies and considering the effect on particle trajectories of the random variation of the turbulent fluctuating velocities in their magnitude and direction. A well-validated three-dimensional (3-D) computer code is used in the modeling. The 3-D effects due to the carrier gas injection on the jet flow field and thus on the particle trajectories and heating histories are shown to be appreciable. The radial location of the injection tube with respect to the plasma jet is shown to be a critical parameter for the study of 3-D effects, besides the carrier-gas/plasma stream mass flux ratio. Particle dispersion considerably widens the distribution of the particle trajectories and heating histories. In addition, although pertinent swirl number is often rather small, swirling may also affect the modeling results.
