Simulation of Three-Spin Interaction in Coupled Cavities Chain

We generalize usual second-order effective Hamiltonian approximation into third-order. Employing the generalized method, we propose a scheme to generate three-spin interaction using coupled cavity chain. We show that the third order term not only improves two parties interaction but also induces direct three-spin interaction which has not been simulated before. By controlling the frequency of laser field, one can obtain next nearest neighbor interaction on the same order with the nearest neighbor’s or the three-spin interaction on the same order as next nearest neighbor’s.     

A numerical study for the KdV and the good Boussinesq equations using Fourier Chebyshev tau meshless method

The current paper presents a scheme, which combines Fourier spectral method and Chebyshev tau meshless method based on the highest derivative (CTMMHD) to solve the nonlinear KdV equation and the good Boussinesq equation. Fourier spectral method is used to approximate the spatial variable, and the problem is converted to a series of equations with Fourier coefficients as unknowns. Then, CTMMHD is applied blockwise in time direction. For the long time computing of solitons, we introduce the computational area moving technique. The numerical results show that the accuracy of Fourier-CTMMHD is good and the computational area moving technique makes the long-time numerical behavior well for the problems with solitons moving towards the same direction.     

Study on viscoelastic properties of epoxidized trans-1,4-polyisoprene by rubber process analyzer

Two kinds of epoxidized trans-1,4-polyisoprene (ETPI) were prepared by surface selective epoxidation which products named as SETPI and solution random epoxidation which product named as RETPI, respectively. The viscoelastic behavior of unmodified trans-1,4-polyisoprene (TPI) and ETPI, both RETPI and SETPI, was studied with the use of a rubber process analyzer (RPA). The strain sweep, frequency sweep, temperature sweep and stress sweep indicated that the SETPI could be seen as a blend of the pure ETPI and TPI. The rheological behavior of TPI and ETPI was recorded by two kinds of shear rate. An obvious effect of epoxidation on the movement behavior of the melt of RETPI was observed. However, the effect of epoxy content of SETPI on ln??* is weak. The complex viscosity at various frequencies of SETPI is higher than that of RETPI.     

Effect of rGO on polymer-dispersed liquid crystal fabricated by RAFT polymerisation

In this study, we demonstrated that doping polymer matrix with a small amount of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) component (0.05–0.2%) had significant influence on the polymerisation kinetics and electro-optical performances of polymer-dispersed liquid crystal films (PDLCs) fabricated with macro reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer agents. The effects of rGO content were studied in terms of morphology, compound viscosity, polymer conductivity, polymerisation kinetics and driving voltage of PDLCs. The results exhibited that higher rGO content increased the compound viscosity and the entire process proceeded slowly. Furthermore, the addition of rGO increased the polymer conductivity and local electric field, and reduced the saturation voltage as well as the threshold voltage from 27.3 to 19.5 V and 13.2 to 6.41 V, respectively.     

Identification of metabolites in WZS‐miniature pig urine after oral administration of Danshen decoction by HPLC coupled with diode array detection with electrospray ionization tandem ion trap and time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry

Danshen (DS) is a widely used traditional Chinese medicine for treating cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. A simple, rapid and sensitive method was developed for identification of the in vivo metabolites in urine of WZS‐miniature pigs after oral administration of DS decoction by HPLC coupled with diode array detection with electrospray ionization tandem ion trap and time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry. This method has been successfully applied to simultaneous identification of 50 compounds (including 11 new ones) in pig urine. In addition, one new compound, (3‐hydroxyphenyl) crylic acid glycine methyl ester (C1), along with eight known ones were first isolated by column chromatography and identified by spectroscopic means, including 1D/2DNMR and mass spectrometry, as reference substances. Ten phenolic compounds (protocatechuic aldehyde, protocatechuic acid, caffeic acid, danshensu, ferulic acid, isoferulic acid, rosmarinic acid and salvianolic acid A/B/D) were found to be the main absorbed original constituents of DS decoction, which underwent the metabolic reactions of glucuronidation, sulfation, methylation, hydrogenation and glycine conjugation in vivo. In conclusion, the developed method is applicable to the analysis and identification of constituents in biological matrices after administration of DS decoction.

不同尺寸的NdFeB稀土永磁体热退磁行为研究

针对不同类型及不同尺寸的两类NdFeB永磁体分别研究了它们随温度变化的热退磁行为。采用样品的整体剩余磁通来表征热退磁过程中磁体性能的变化。结果表明,Pc较小的永磁体温度稳定性较差,随温度的升高,样品的剩余磁通迅速衰减;Pc<<0.1的普通型永磁体,温度为100℃时样品的剩余磁通损失超过60%。高矫顽力型永磁体比普通型磁体具有更优越的温度稳定性和高温性能。温度升高主要导致磁体矫顽力降低,140℃时普通型磁体的矫顽力降低约80%,而高矫顽力型磁体的矫顽力只降低了约20%。     

Strong ergodicity of the regime-switching diffusion processes

We provide criteria for the strong ergodicity of regime-switching diffusion processes. Our conditions are imposed on the coefficients of the processes. Particularly, we show that for regime-switching diffusions on the half line, if the corresponding diffusion on each fixed environment is strongly ergodic, then the regime-switching diffusion is strongly ergodic as well, which does not depend on the changing rate of the environment. Moreover, the converse is not always true, which is shown by an example. For transience, recurrence and positive recurrence, there is no such good consistency [R. Pinsky and M. Scheutzow, Some remarks and examples concerning the transience and recurrence of random diffusions, Ann. Inst. Henri. Poincaré 28 (1992) 519–536].
