Maximum principle for optimal distributed control of the viscous Dullin-Gottwald-Holm equation

In this paper, the optimal distributed control of the viscous Dullin-Gottwald-Holm equation is investigated. Adopting the Dubovitskii and Milyutin functional analytical approach, we obtain the Pontryagin maximum principle of the system. The necessary optimality condition is established for an optimal control problem in fixed final horizon case. Finally, an illustrative example is also given.     

Robin boundary value problem for the Cauchy-Riemann operator

The aim of this article is to give explicit representations for solutions of the Robin boundary value problem for the Cauchy-Riemann operator [image omitted]. In the homogeneous cases we investigate the Robin boundary condition in a more general form. Finally, we give solutions of the corresponding higher-order operators.     

Demonstration of the approximation of eliminating atomic excited populations in an atom-cavity system

Using the master equation approach to a V-type three-level atom inside a high-finesse single-mode cavity in the strong coupling condition,we demonstrate the approximation of eliminating populations of atomic excited states,which is widely used in the field of the atom-cavity systems [Hechenblaikner G,Gangl M,Horak P and Ritsch H 1998 Phys.Rev.A 58 3030];Liu L W,Tan T and Xu Y 2008 J.Mod.Opt.56 968;Cho J,Angelakis D G and Bose S 2008 Phys.Rev.A 78 062338.This is reflected in the deviation of the population δ,of which the value is 10～(-3)～10～(-2).We further find the deviation of the dipole force and demonstrate that the deviation of atomic population will not notably affect the dipole force of the atom in the strong coupling condition.A relevant experimental case is also presented.     

A version of Hill＇s lemma for Cosserat continuum

On the basis of Hill＇s lemma for classical Cauchy continuum, a version of Hill＇s lemma for micro-macro homogenization modeling of heterogeneous Cosserat continuum is presented in the flame of average-field theory. The admissible boundary conditions required to prescribe on the representative volume element for the modeling are extracted and discussed to ensure the satisfaction of Hill-Mandel energy condition and the first-order average field theory.     

Jump Condition for Diffusive and Convective Mass Transfer Between a Porous Medium and a Fluid Involving Adsorption and Chemical Reaction

In this paper, mass transfer at the fluid–porous medium boundaries is studied. The problem considers both diffusive and convective transport, along with adsorption and reaction effects in the porous medium. The result is a mass flux jump condition that is expressed in terms of effective transport coefficients. Such coefficients (a total dispersion tensor and effective reaction and adsorption coefficients) may be computed from the solution of the corresponding closure problem here stated and solved as a function of the Péclet number (Pe), the porosity and a local Thiele modulus. For the case of negligible convective transport (i.e., ), the closure problem reduces to the one recently solved by the authors for diffusion and reaction between a fluid and a microporous medium.     

Onset of Buoyancy-Driven Convection in Porous Media Saturated with Cold Water Cooled from Above

When porous media saturated with initially stagnant cold water around the density maximum temperature are cooled from above, convection may be induced in an unstable lower layer. In this study, the onset of buoyancy-driven convection during time-dependent cooling is investigated using the propagation theory, which transforms disturbance equations similarly, and also considering the density inversion effect. The critical Darcy–Rayleigh number Ra _D,c is found as a function of the dimensionless density maximum temperature θ _max. For Ra _D > Ra _D,c the dimensionless critical time τ _c to mark the onset of instability is presented as a function of Ra _D and θ _max. These critical conditions are compared with previous theoretical results.     

Effective pressure-sensitive elastoplastic behavior of particle-reinforced composites and porous media under isotropic loading

The composite under investigation consists of an elastoplastic matrix reinforced by elastic particles or weakened by pores. The material forming the matrix is pressure-sensitive. The Drucker–Prager yield criterion and a one-parameter non-associated flow rule are employed to formulate the yield behavior of the matrix. The objective of this work is to estimate the effective elastoplastic behavior of the composite under isotropic tensile and compressive loadings. To achieve this objective, the composite sphere assemblage model of Hashin [Z. Hashin, The elastic moduli of heterogeneous materials, ASME J. Appl. Mech. 29 (1962) 143–150] is used. Exact solutions are thus derived as estimations for the effective secant and tangent bulk moduli of the composite. The effects of the loading modes and phase properties on the effective elastoplastic behavior of the composite are analytically and numerically evaluated.     

Lattice Boltzmann Simulation of Convection in a Porous Medium with Temperature Jump and Velocity Slip Boundary Conditions

To investigate the convection in a porous medium, a horizontal quiescent layer of one fluid saturating a porous medium heated from bottom is numerically studied using single lattice-Boltzmann method (LBM) and the generalized Navier-Stokes equation proposed by Nithiarasu et al. [P. Nithiarasu, K.M. Seetharamu, and T Sundararajan, Int. J. Heat Mass Trans. 40 (1997) 3955]. Due to the rarefaction, the boundary conditions are considered as both temperature jump and velocity slip. The computational results are validated against the analytical results, and excellent agreement has been obtained. The results have shown that the Rayleigh number is increased with increasing temperature jump, the stabilization effect of temperature is much more significant than that of velocity slip, and the computation stability of present model is better than that of Darcy and Brinkman models.
