Isobaric thermal expansivities of polyethylenes with various crystallinities over the pressure range from 0.1 to 300 MPa and over the temperature range from 303 to 393 K

A pressure-controlled scanning calorimeter (PCSC) has been applied for measuring the isobaric volume thermal expansivities (α_p) of crystalline polymers as a function of pressure up to 300 MPa at various temperatures. The measurements have been performed for several well-defined polyethylenes with various degrees of crystallinity at 302.6, 333.0, 362.6, and 393.0 K. The results are reported as values of coefficients in a correlation equation, which facilitates the use of reported data over large ranges of temperature and pressure. The general pressure-temperature behavior of α_p for all polyethylenes under study is such that α_p increases with temperature and decreases with pressure. The increase with temperature is smaller at high pressures and the isotherms of α_p have a tendency to converge at high pressures; α_p decreases linearly with the crystallinity of the polyethylene over the whole range of pressure and temperature under investigation. From the linear approximation of experimental data for polyethylenes with various crystallinities the estimated α_p for both crystal and amorphous phases of polyethylenes have been determined as a function of pressure up to 300 MPa at 302.6, 333.0, and 362.5 K. The obtained results have been compared with available literature crystallographic data and with the values derived from the Pastine theoretical equation of state for both crystalline and amorphous phases. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

MODELLING OF WAVE PROPAGATION IN THE NEARSHORE REGION USING THE MILD SLOPE EQUATION WITH GMRES-BASED ITERATIVE SOLVERS

The mild slope equation in its linear and non-linear forms is used for the modelling of nearshore wave propagation. The finite difference method is used to descretize the governing elliptic equations and the resulting system of equations is solved using GMRES-based iterative method. The original GMRES solution technique of Saad and Schultz is not directly applicable to the present case owing to the complex coefficient matrix. The simpler GMRES algorithm of Walker and Zhou is used as the core solver, making the upper Hessenberg factorization unneccessary when solving the least squares problem. Several preconditioning-based acceleration strategies are tested and the results show that the GMRES-based iteration scheme performs very well and leads to monotonic convergence for all the test-cases considered.

Singularities and spectral asymptotics of a random nonlinear wave in a nondispersive system

In this paper, we study the propagation of high-intensity acoustic noise in free space and in waveguide systems. A mathematical model generalizing the Burgers equation is used. It describes the nonlinear wave evolution inside tubes of variable cross-section, as well as in ray tubes, if the geometric approximation for heterogeneous media is used. The generalized equation transforms to the common Burgers equation with a dissipative parameter, known as the “Reynolds–Goldberg number”. In our model, this number depends on the distance travelled by the wave. With a zero “viscous” dissipative term, the model reduces to the Riemann (or Hopf) equation. Its solution presents the field by an implicit function. The spectral form of this solution makes it possible to derive explicit expressions for both dynamic and statistical characteristics of intense waves. The use of a spectral approach allowed us to describe the high-intensity noise in media with zero and finite viscosity. Applicability conditions of these solutions are defined. Since the phase matching is fulfilled for any triplet of interacting spectral components, there is an avalanche-like increase in the number of harmonics and the formation of shocks. The relationship between these discontinuities and other singularities and the high-frequency asymptotic of intense noise is studied. The possibility is shown to enhance nonlinear effects in waveguide systems during the evolution of noise.     

Vertex correction and conductivity in 2D Dirac-like systems with non-conserving spin disorder

We determine the classical diffusion of two dimensional Dirac-like quasiparticles, in the presence of conserving spin disorder (scattering off electric impurities) and non-conserving spin disorder (scattering off magnetic impurities). We use the Kubo formula for the conductivity tensor and employ diagrammatic perturbation theory to calculate the vertex correction and the renormalisation of the current operator for both electric and magnetic scattering. Scattering off electric impurities is isotropic and the current operator renormalised to two times the bare current operator irrespective of the direction of the dynamics, as usual for Dirac-like fermions. For magnetic scattering the renormalisation of the current operator depends on the direction of the dynamics and on the polarisation of the magnetic impurities, making the system anisotropic. We calculate the anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) and analyse it as a function of the ratio of the strength of the electric to the magnetic scattering potentials, for short range Gaussian correlation.

Based on the existence of pullback attractors for the non-autonomous stochastic plate equations with multiplicative noise and nonlinear damping defined in the entire space $\mathbb{R}^n$ by Xiaobin Yao in \cite{Yao4}, in the paper, we further investigate the upper semicontinuity of pullback attractors for the problem.     

Upper Bound of the Number of Zeros for Abelian Integrals in a Kind of Quadratic Reversible Centers of Genus One

By using the methods of Picard-Fuchs equation and Riccati equation, we study the upper bound of the number of zeros for Abelian integrals in a kind of quadratic reversible centers of genus one under polynomial perturbations of degree $n$. We obtain that the upper bound is $7[(n-3)/2]+5$ when $n\ge 5$, $8$ when $n=4$, $5$ when $n=3$, $4$ when $n=2$, and $0$ when $n=1$ or $n=0$, which linearly depends on $n$.
