A generalized Adadorov theory for anisotropic thin-walled beams

This paper presents a generalized Adadorov theory for anisotropic thin—walled beams. The theory takes account of the shear strain of the middle surface, which exerts a significant influence on the anisotropic thin-walled beams. A new approach is established to solve the governing equations, which have the same form for both open and closed section beams. The numerical examples show that the effects of the shear strain cannot be neglected for this class of beams.This work was part of research project supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China

von-Neumann正则环与左SF-环

环R称为左SF-环,如果每个单左R-模是平坦的.众所周知,Von-Neumann正则环是SF-环,但SF-环是否是正则环至今仍是公开问题,本文主要研究左SF-环是正则环的条件,证明了:如果R是左SF-环且R的每个极大左(右)理想是广义弱理想,那么R是强正则环.并且推广了Rege[3]中的相应结果.     

Multiple recurrence and nilsequences

Aiming at a simultaneous extension of Khintchine(X,X,m,T)(X,\mathcal{X},\mu,T) and a set A ? XA\in\mathcal{X} of positive measure, the set of integers n such that A T^2nA T^knA)(A)^k+1-\mu(A{\cap} T^{n}A{\cap} T^{2n}A{\cap} \ldots{\cap} T^{kn}A)>\mu(A)^{k+1}-\epsilon is syndetic. The size of this set, surprisingly enough, depends on the length (k+1) of the arithmetic progression under consideration. In an ergodic system, for k=2 and k=3, this set is syndetic, while for kòf(x)f(Tⁿx)f(T²ⁿx)? f(T^knx)  dm(x)\int{f(x)f(T^{n}x)f(T^{2n}x){\ldots} f(T^{kn}x) \,d\mu(x)} , where k and n are positive integers and f is a bounded measurable function. We also derive combinatorial consequences of these results, for example showing that for a set of integers E with upper Banach density d^*(E)>0 and for all {n ? \mathbbZ\colon d^*(E?(E+n)?(E+2n)?(E+3n)) > d^*(E)⁴-e}\big\{n\in\mathbb{Z}{\colon} d^*\big(E\cap(E+n)\cap(E+2n)\cap(E+3n)\big) > d^*(E)^4-\epsilon\big\}     

Analysis of Radiation Phenomena in a Wedge Ended Dielectric Slab Waveguide

Radiation phenomena observed in a wedge shape ended dielectric slab waveguide are analyzed using mode matching technique. The case of transverse electric polarization (TE) being parallel to dielectric slab waveguide is assumed. In order to describe the fields in the wedge region, a stack of dielectric plates is assumed and in each layer the fields are expanded in terms of the mixed spectrum of guided and radiated modes. A similar expansion is used in the constant thickness slab waveguide while in free space medium a continuous-radiation mode expansion is used. Then a mode matching approach is applied, incorporating the orthogonality properties of mixed spectrum modes, in order to compute the wave fields inside the dielectric slab waveguide and wedge medium. Mode matching is achieved by discretizing the continuous radiation mode spectrum leading into a numerically stable solution provided a sufficient large number of points are used to convert integrals into finite summations. Numerical computations are carried out for various wedge geometries and shapes including linear and exponential profiles.     

Studies of large scale unstable growth formed during GaAs(001) homoepitaxy

Atomic force and scanning tunneling microscopy studies have been performed on GaAs(001) films grown by molecular beam epitaxy. Multilayered mounds are seen to evolve when the growth conditions favor island nucleation. As the epilayer thickness is increased, these features grow in all dimensions but the angle of inclination remains approximately constant at 1°. The mounding does not occur on surfaces grown in step-flow. We propose that the multi-layered features are due to an unstable growth mode which relies on island nucleation and the presence of a step edge barrier.     

A simple four-node quadrilateral finite element for plates

A simple and accurate four-node quadrilateral finite element based on the Mindlin plate theory and Kirchhoff constraints is presented for general thin plate bending applications. The derivation of the element stiffness properties is straightforward, starting with a specified eight-node interpolation; usual discrete Kirchhoff (DK) constraints are employed to constrain out the four midside nodes of the element. The present resulting DK element passes patch tests with elements of arbitrary and even highly distorted mesh types. Numerical studies of the element convergence behaviours are undertaken for various plate bending problems so far investigated. It is indicated from comparative examples that fairly good convergence characteristics have been achieved.
