Three methods for analyzing forced vibration of a fluid-filled cylindrical shell

The forced vibration of an infinite elastic circular cylindrical shell filled with fluid is studied. Three methods are employed to analyze the forced vibration problem of this shell-fluid coupled system, that is, wave propagation approach (wave mode superposition), theorem of residues and a numerical integral method. In order to explain these methods more explicitly, before being used to investigate the vibration of an infinite fluid-filled elastic circular cylindrical shell, all these three methods are employed firstly to analyze the forced vibration problem of an infinite beam and an infinite elastic circular cylindrical shell in vacuo. Advantage and disadvantage of these three methods are discussed and their interesting relationship is revealed. That is, to any circumferential wavenumber and frequency of the external force, there is an unchangeable relationship between the general coordinates of various waves in the wave propagation approach and the residuals in the theorem of residues.     

一种新的白光光纤传感系统波长解调方法

提出了一种新的白光非本征法布里-珀罗干涉（EFPI）光纤传感系统的干涉谱处理方法,在白光法布里-珀罗干涉光纤传感系统中,一个中心波长为850nm的发光二极管（LED）作为宽谱光源,HR2000高分辨力微型光谱仪用来测量返回的干涉光谱。通过跟踪干涉光谱中的特定谱峰点,法布里-珀罗干涉传感器的腔长值可以被解调出来。应用反向传播神经网络,解决了单峰测量方式的级次模糊问题。反向传播神经网络能够分辨出干涉谱中不同谱峰的干涉级次,因而可以进行多个谱峰的连续跟踪。从而实现了高精密度、大动态范围的测量。进行了基于这种干涉谱处理方法的白光法布里-珀罗干涉传感系统的应变测量实验。利用该传感系统实现了精密度达0．1με,500με范围的应变测量。     

Effective Hamiltonian for scalar theories in the Gaussian approximation

We use a Gaussian wave functional for the ground state to reorder the Hamiltonian into a free part with a variationally determined mass and the rest. Once spontaneous symmetry breaking is taken into account, the residual Hamiltonian can, in principle, be treated perturbatively. In this scheme we analyze the O(1) and O(2) scalar models. For the O(2)-theory we first explicitly calculate the massless Goldstone excitation and then show that the one-loop corrections of the effective Hamiltonian do not generate a mass.     

Simple Analytical Model of the Anodic Streamer

In this work, an analytical model is used to study the formation of the anodic streamer in high pressure electrical discharge. This model enabled us to see the space variations of the characteristics of the streamer such as the electric field and the propagation velocity of streamer. The validity of the analytic approach is demonstrated by comparing the model results to the data from the literature. A qualitative concord was found. (© 2008 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

DNB引出束流功率及剖面分布测量

 利用束流截止板热量计原理,测量了诊断中性束(DNB)注入托卡马克的束流功率及束流剖面分布。基于热量截止板上正交分布的13只K型热电偶探针测量出DNB引出束流,在加速极电源49 kV,6 A,100 ms的脉冲放电时,采样铜靶上的最高温升为14 ℃,从而计算出注入束流功率达到160 kW并得到束剖面分布。同时通过对热量截止板冷却循环水温升测量值在时间上的积分数值计算,也获得了注入束流总功率,为130 kW。分析了两种测量结果存在差异的原因,实验结果表明惯性束截止板热量计方法是测量粒子束流功率及剖面分布的有效手段。     

Adjoint-based h–p adaptive discontinuous Galerkin methods for the 2D compressible Euler equations

In this paper, we investigate and present an adaptive Discontinuous Galerkin algorithm driven by an adjoint-based error estimation technique for the inviscid compressible Euler equations. This approach requires the numerical approximations for the flow (i.e. primal) problem and the adjoint (i.e. dual) problem which corresponds to a particular simulation objective output of interest. The convergence of these two problems is accelerated by an hp-multigrid solver which makes use of an element Gauss–Seidel smoother on each level of the multigrid sequence. The error estimation of the output functional results in a spatial error distribution, which is used to drive an adaptive refinement strategy, which may include local mesh subdivision (h-refinement), local modification of discretization orders (p-enrichment) and the combination of both approaches known as hp-refinement. The selection between h- and p-refinement in the hp-adaptation approach is made based on a smoothness indicator applied to the most recently available flow solution values. Numerical results for the inviscid compressible flow over an idealized four-element airfoil geometry demonstrate that both pure h-refinement and pure p-enrichment algorithms achieve equivalent error reductions at each adaptation cycle compared to a uniform refinement approach, but requiring fewer degrees of freedom. The proposed hp-adaptive refinement strategy is capable of obtaining exponential error convergence in terms of degrees of freedom, and results in significant savings in computational cost. A high-speed flow test case is used to demonstrate the ability of the hp-refinement approach for capturing strong shocks or discontinuities while improving functional accuracy.     

Gain–loss asymmetry for emerging stock markets

Stock indexes for some European emerging markets are analyzed using an investment-horizon approach. Austrian ATX index and Dow Jones have been studied and compared with several emerging European markets. The optimal investment horizons are plotted as a function of an absolute return value. Gain–loss asymmetry, originally found for American DJIA index, is observed for all analyzed data. It is shown, that this asymmetry has different character for emerging and for established markets. For established markets, gain curve lies typically above loss curve, whereas in the case of emerging markets the situation is just the opposite. We propose a measure quantifying the gain–loss asymmetry that clearly exhibits a difference between emerging and established markets.     

Explicit Confinement Effect on the Helicity Amplitudes of the Low-Lying Nucleon Resonances

Calculations of helicity amplitudes for the low-lying nucleon resonances are displayed based on a non-relativistic constituent quark model with a harmonic oscillator confinement. The explicit effect of quark confinement isshown. Our results show that the effect plays sizable role on some transition amplitudes of S11(1535) and D13(1520)resonances. The effect on the △(1232) transition amplitudes islessthan 10%. However, the effect on the Roper resonanceis remarkable but is inconclusive.     

非对称核物质中同位旋对称势的动量和密度依赖性

在Brueckner-Hartree-Fock理论框架内, 研究了同位旋非对称核物质中质子和中子单粒子势的动量相关性及其随同位旋非对称度的变化, 在此基础上计算了同位旋对称势, 并讨论了三体核力的影响. 结果表明同位旋对称势对于同位旋非对称度的依赖性很弱, 但对于动量和密度均有较强的依赖性. 当密度固定时, 同位旋对称势随动量增加而减小. 尽管三体核力对于质子和中子单粒子势的动量相关性有较大影响, 但对同位旋对称势的影响很小. 还与目前重离子碰撞输运理论模型中所使用的各种参数化的唯象对称势进行了比较.
