Unbounded positive solutions for m-point time-scale boundary value problems on infinite intervals

In this work, we consider the following second-order m-point boundary value problem on time scales $$\left\{\begin{array}{@{}l}(\phi_{p}(u^{\triangle}(t)))^{\nabla}+h(t)f(t,u(t),u^{\triangle }(t))=0,\quad t\in(0,+\infty)_{\mathbb{T}},\\[4pt]\displaystyle u(0)=\sum_{i=1}^{m-2}\alpha_{i}u(\eta_{i}),\qquad u^{\triangle}(+\infty)=\sum_{i=1}^{m-2}\beta_{i}u^{\triangle}(\eta_{i}).\end{array}\right.$$ We establish new criteria for the existence of at least three unbounded positive solutions. Our results are new even for the corresponding differential $({\mathbb{T}}={\mathbb{R}})$ , difference equation $({\mathbb{T}}={\mathbb{Z}})$ and for the general time-scale setting. An example is given to illustrate our results.     

Orlicz mixed quermassintegrals

The notion of mixed quermassintegrals in the classical Brunn-Minkowski theory is extended to that of Orlicz mixed quermassintegrals in the Orlicz Brunn-Minkowski theory. The analogs of the classical Cauchy-Kubota formula, the Minkowski isoperimetric inequality and the Brunn-Minkowski inequality are established for this new Orlicz mixed quermassintegrals.     

Controlling quantum coherence of atom laser by light with strong strength

A new method for controlling the quantum coherence of atom laser by applying input light with strong strength is presented within the framework of quantum dynamical theory. Unlike the case of rotating wave approximation(RWA), we show that the non-classical properties, such as sub-Poisson distribution and quadrature squeezed effect, can appear in the output atom laser beam with time. By choosing suitable initial RF phase, a steady and brighter output of squeezed coherent atom laser is also available.     

Multiple positive solutions for one-dimensional p-Laplacian boundary value problems

By means of the Leggett-Williams fixed-point theorem, criteria are developed for the existence of at least three positive solutions to the one-dimensional p-Laplacian boundary value problem, ((y′))′ + g(t)f(t,y) = 0, y(0) - B₀(y′(0)) = 0, y(1) + B₁(y′(1)) = 0, where (v) |v|^p−2v, p > 1.

Feasibility study on buoyancy–weight ratios of a submerged floating tunnel prototype subjected to hydrodynamic loads

The research progress of a novel traffic solution,a submerged floating tunnel(SFT),is reviewed in terms of a study approach and loading scenario.Among existing publications,the buoyancy-weight ratio(BWR) is usually predefined.However,BWR is a critical structural parameter that tremendously affects the dynamic behaviour of not only the tunnel tube itself but also the cable system.In the context of a SFT prototype(SFTP) project in Qiandao Lake(Zhejiang Province,China),the importance of BWR is illustrated by finite element analysis and subsequently,an optimized BWR is proposed within a reasonable range in the present study.In the numerical model,structural damping is identified to be of importance.Rayleigh damping and the corresponding Rayleigh coefficients are attained through a sensitivity study,which shows that the adopted damping ratios are fairly suitable for SFTP.Lastly,the human sense of security is considered by quantifying the comfort index,which helps further optimize BWR in the SFTP structural parameter design.
