Sudden death and revival qubits coupled collectively of entanglement of two to a thermal reservoir

In this paper, we investigate the entanglement of two qubits coupled collectively to a common thermal environment and find that the the collective decay can lead to a revival of the entanglement that has already been destroyed. We also show that the ability of the system to revival entanglement relies on the mean photon number of the thermal environment and the degree of entanglement of the initial state.     

频率变化的光场对双J-C模型中原子-原子纠缠的调控

本文研究了频率随时间变化的光场对双J-C模型中原子--原子纠缠的动力学调控, 主要讨论了光场频率随时间作正弦变化和脉冲变化两种典型情况下, 原子--原子纠缠度随时间的演化特性. 当光场频率随时间作正弦变化时, 原子--原子纠缠度演化的周期、振幅与光场频率调制的振幅有关, 并随着调制振幅的增强而减小. 光场频率的正弦调制和脉冲调制均能使光场与原子的相互作用模式在共振和非共振之间发生变化, 直接影响原子--原子纠缠度的演化规律. 通过光场频率的调制可以实现原子--原子纠缠度的提高与稳定, 避免ESD现象的出现, 从而达到动态调控原子--原子纠缠的目的.     

On the performance of sudden‐expansion pipe without/with cross‐flow injection: experimental and numerical studies

The paper explores the possibilities that different turbulence closures offer, for in‐depth analysis of a complex flow. The case under investigation is steady, turbulent flow in a pipe with sudden expansion without/with normal‐to‐wall injection through jets. This is a typical geometry where generation of turbulence energy takes place, due to sudden change in boundary conditions. This study is aimed at investigating the capability of a developed computational program by the present authors with three different turbulence models to calculate the mean flow variables. Three two‐equation models are implemented, namely the standard linear k ? ε model, the low Reynolds number k ? ε model and the cubic nonlinear eddy viscosity (NLEV) k ? ε model. The performance of the chosen turbulence models is investigated with regard to the available data in the literature including velocity profiles, turbulent kinetic energy and reattachment position in a pipe expansion. In order to further assess the reliability of the turbulence models, an experimental program was conducted by the present authors also at the fluid mechanics laboratory of Menoufiya University. Preliminary measurements, including the surface pressure along the two walls of the expansion pipe and the pressure drop without and with the presence of different arrangements of wall jets produced by symmetrical or asymmetrical fluid cross‐flow injection, are introduced. The results of the present studies demonstrate the superiority of the cubic NLEV k ? ε model in predicting the flow characteristics over the entire domain. The simple low Reynolds number k ? ε model also gives good prediction, especially when the reattachment point is concerned. The evaluation of the reattachment point and the pressure‐loss coefficient is numerically addressed in the paper using the cubic NLEV k ? ε model. The results show that the injection location can control the performance of the pipe‐expansion system. It is concluded that the introduction of flow injection can increase the energy loss in the pipe expansion. The near‐field turbulence structure is also considered in the present study and it is noticed that the turbulence level is strongly affected by the cross‐flow injection and the jet location.

Research on lateral stability and rollover mechanism of articulated wheel loader

A seven-degrees-of-freedom (DOF) dynamic model was established based on the Lagrange equation to analyse the lateral stability and instability mechanism of an articulated wheel loader. A scale wheel loader was designed and manufactured to validate the dynamic model in two conditions, namely turning on slopes and passing over obstacles. Experimental data and simulated data fitted well on the whole, so the developed dynamic model was proved to be useful and could serve as an important tool to analyse the stability of wheel loaders. At last, the lateral stability of one ZL50 wheel loader was analysed by using this dynamic model. The results showed that there is a phenomenon of sudden stability losing during the wheel loader cornering due to the relative rotation between the subframe and the rear axle. The subframe can enhance the stability when the wheel loader is passing over obstacles but reduces the stability when it is turning.

Studies on the mechanism for the sudden mechanical property drops of graphene/polymer nanocomposites

Graphene/polymer nanocomposites (GPNCs) have gained intense research interest in recent years. Graphene can improve the properties of the nanocomposites at low loadings, but usually causes sudden drops in the mechanical properties of the nanocomposites at similarly low loadings, risking the performance, reproducibility, and batch stability of the nanocomposites. This problem has been troubling the GPNCs field for years, but it is difficult to solve mainly because the mechanism of the sudden mechanical property drops has not been well documented yet. Here, we present a systematic study on this problem. At first, a statistical study was made to provide an overview of the sudden mechanical property drops. It was found that the sudden mechanical property drops were almost independent of the surface modification of graphene, and the in situ polymerization method sometimes leads to lower critical concentration than the solvent blending and melt blending methods. Then, we demonstrated a cutting‐off mechanism which unveiled that the formation of a continuous or semicontinuous network of graphene throughout the polymeric matrix was the main cause of the sudden mechanical property drops, and the low critical concentration of the sudden mechanical property drops was mainly due to the large aspect ratio of graphene. Finally, future research prospects were proposed. Overall, our work has provided new understandings and insights to the mechanical properties of GPNCs.     

HYBRID PERTURBATION-GALERKIN SOLUTION OFTHE FLOW IN A CIRCULAR CROSS-SECTIONTUBE WITH CONSTRICTION~

Using hybrid perturbatin- Galerkin technique, a circular cross-section tube model with sinusoidal wall is studied. This technique can remove the limitation of small parametersfor perturbation and the difficulty of selecting good coordinate functions about Galerkintechnique. The effects caused by the boundary conditions and the Reynolds number on theflow were discussed. The position of the separate and reattachment points was obtained. The tendency of the variation about the shear stress on the wall and friction factor along the axisdirection were also analyzed, The results at a small parameter have good agreements withthe perturbation ones.

Controllable entanglement sudden birth of Heisenberg spins

We investigate the Entanglement Sudden Birth (ESB) of two Heisenberg spins A and B. The third controller, qutrit C is introduced, which only has the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) spin-orbit interaction with qubit B. We find that the DM interaction is necessary to induce the Entanglement Sudden Birth of the system qubits A and B, and the initial states of the system qubits and the qurit C are also important to control its Entanglement Sudden Birth.
