This article deals with the dynamical analysis of discrete-time Brusselator models. Euler’s forward and nonstandard difference schemes are implemented for discretization of Brusselator system. We investigate the local dynamics related to equilibria of both discrete-time models. Furthermore, with the help of bifurcation theory and center manifold theorem, explicit parametric conditions for directions and existence of flip and Hopf bifurcations are investigated. A novel chaos control method is implemented in order to control chaos in discrete-time Brusselator models under the influence of flip and Hopf bifurcations. Numerical simulations are provided to illustrate theoretical discussion and effectiveness of newly introduced chaos control strategy. 相似文献
Treatment of 5,5-dialkyl-N-nitrosooxazolidones (1) with Lithium ethoxide (and other bases) under certain conditions yields reaction products the formation of which seems best explained by assuming that unsaturated carbenes [A] are involved.3–5相似文献
Herein we report the effect of additives (salts and organics) on the cloud point (CP) of nonionic surfactant Triton X‐114 (TX‐114) aqueous solutions. CP showed a concentration dependent variation in the absence of any added compound. Addition of quaternary ammonium (or phosphonium) bromides to 0.8 mM TX‐114 solutions increased the CP. It was found that long chain alcohols and amines decreased the CP of 0.8 mM TX‐114 +80 mM Bu4AmB aqueous system, while it either remained constant or increased in the presence of short chain additives. The effect of first group additives (long chain) can be explained by considering that these additives solubilize in interfacial region and assist in micellar growth. Short chain additives remain in aqueous phase and affect the micelle hydration by affecting the solvent. Pentylamine behaved differently than pentanol: pentylamine increased the CP (like short chain additives) while pentanol decreased the CP. In pentylamine, the hydrophilicity of NH2 group and its dissociation into NH3+ dominates over the hydrophobicity of its alkyl chain. Aliphatic hydrocarbons first decreased and then increased the CP. The overall behavior depended upon the chain length of the hydrocarbon. With decane, the CP decreasing region disappeared completely. 相似文献
In this respect mono‐, di‐, and tri‐ sorbitol oleate esters [SMO, SDO, and STO] were prepared and then ethoxylated using ethylene oxide to obtain six sorbitol esters at different ethylene oxide content (e.o=5, 12, 15, 20, 35, and 45). They were tested as oil spill dispersants individually and in blends. From the obtained data, it was found that the blends are more effective than the corresponding individual surfactants. The maximum dispersion capability for the prepared surfactants was obtained at HLB range from 9 to 11 for the both individual surfactants and blends. The increase of total carbon number in the surfactant alkyl group leads to increase dispersion capability of the dispersant. The wide range of ethylene oxide content was used, but the maximum dispersion efficiency was obtained at ethylene oxide=20 in E(20)STO. Meanwhile, the dispersion capability increases when the interfacial tension decreases. 相似文献
A series of ethoxylated sodium monooctyl sulfosuccinates [E(n)SMOSS] and ethoxylated sodium monolauryl sulfosuccinates [E(n)SMLSS] have different units of ethylene oxide (n = 9, 14, 23) were synthesized. The surface and thermodynamic properties of these surfactants have been compared with sodium dioctyl sulfosuccinate surfactant (SDOSS) as a commonly used surfactant. The surface tension measurements at 25, 35, 45, and 55°C were used to determine of the critical micelle concentration (CMC) and surface active properties of these surfactants. The effect of the ethylene oxide (EO) unit and the alkyl chain length on the surface properties for the prepared surfactants was studied. The results show that the ethoxylated sodium monoalkyl sulfosuccinates generally have lower values of CMC than that of sodium dioctyl sulfosuccinate. The values of surface active parameters indicate that the ethoxylated sodium monooctyl sulfosuccinates and ethoxylated sodium monolauryl sulfosuccinates surfactants have adsorption properties better than the sodium dioctyl sulfosuccinate surfactant as a resulted presence of ethylene oxide in molecules of the prepared surfactants. The thermodynamic parameters show that the (EO) unites in the chemical structure of ethoxylated sodium monoalkyl sulfosuccinate surfactants improve their micellization and adsorption properties. 相似文献
Transformation optics, a recent geometrical design strategy of light manipulation with both ray trajectories and optical phase controlled simultaneously, promises an invisibility cloaking device that can render a macroscopic object invisible even to a scientific instrument measuring optical phase. Recent “carpet” cloaks have extended their cloaking capability to broadband frequency ranges and macroscopic scales, but they only demonstrated the recovery of ray trajectories after passing through the cloaks, while whether the optical phase would reveal their existence still remains unverified. In this paper, a phase‐preserved macroscopic visible‐light carpet cloak is demonstrated in a geometrical construction beyond two dimensions. As an extension of previous two‐dimensional (2D) macroscopic carpet cloaks, this almost‐three‐dimensional carpet cloak exhibits three‐dimensional (3D) invisibility for illumination near its center (i.e. with a limited field of view), and its ideal wide‐angle invisibility performance is preserved in multiple 2D planes intersecting in the 3D space. Optical path length is measured with a broadband pulsed‐laser interferometer, which provides unique experimental evidence on the geometrical nature of transformation optics.

Composite materials and their applications constitute a hot field of research nowadays due to the fact that they comprise a combination of the unique properties of each component of which they consist. Very often, they exhibit better performance and properties compared to their combined building blocks. Graphene oxide (GO), as the most widely used derivative of graphene, has attracted widespread attention because of its excellent properties. Abundant oxygen-containing functional groups on GO can provide various reactive sites for chemical modification or functionalization of GO, which in turn can be used to develop novel GO-based composites. This review outlines the most recent advances in the field of novel dyes and pigments encompassing GO as a key ingredient or as an important cofactor. The interactions of graphene with other materials/compounds are highlighted. The special structure and unique properties of GO have a great effect on the performance of fabricated hybrid dyes and pigments by enhancing the color performance of dyes, the anticorrosion properties of pigments, the viscosity and rheology of inks, etc., which further expands the applications of dyes and pigments in dyeing, optical elements, solar-thermal energy storage, sensing, coatings, and microelectronics devices. Finally, challenges in the current development as well as the future prospects of GO-based dyes and pigments are also discussed. This review provides a reference for the further exploration of novel dyes and pigments. 相似文献
