Lamb wave sensors array for nonviscous liquid sensing

The interdigital transducer (IDT) can excite Lamb wave in a piezoelectric plate loading with a liquid layer, and the phase velocity of Lamb wave is associated with the properties of the liquid layer. In this paper, the concept of effective permittivity is introduced to study the Lamb wave’s potential application in liquid sensing. Considering the measuring of ideal nonviscous liquid, the sensors array is designed to sense the density and the dielectric constant of the liquid layer simultaneously. Using LiNbO₃ as piezoelectric material, in order to improve the sensors array sensitivity and the electro-mechanical coupling coefficient, the optimized results including plate thicknesses and cut orientations are presented by numerical simulation. These studies show that the Lamb wave sensors array can be potential in liquid sensing.

基于数字离子阱技术,研究了离子阱质谱分析实验过程使用的碰撞气体种类及压力对离子阱质谱性能,如质量分辨能力、信号强度、串级质谱分析,以及低质量截止效应等的影响.实验过程中,在离子的激发和碰撞诱导解离阶段,分别采用质量数不等的氦气(质量数=4 amu)、氮气(质量数=28 amu)、氩气(质量数=40 amu)等作为碰撞气体,以及不同的气体压力,研究了它们对质谱性能的影响.结果表明,当采用质量数较大的氩气作为碰撞气体时,可以有效改善低质量数截止效应和提高离子碰撞过程中的能量转移效率,同时提高离子捕获和解离效率,但是质量分辨率会明显降低.在获得较高质量分辨率方面,氦气作为碰撞气体时效果最好.在气压相同的情况下,质量数大的碰撞气体有利于提高串级质谱分析效率,即获得更多碎片离子峰和更多有关母体离子结构的信息.     

A novel algorithm for branch cut phase unwrapping

Branch cut method is a powerful noise-immune algorithm for correct phase unwrapping of noisy phase maps. The shortest branch cut length promises the optimal unwrapping result of the wrapped phase maps. A new algorithm is proposed to search for the shortest branch cut length by simple exchange operation. Although the algorithm is on the basis of stochastic search techniques, it has a high probability of finding the shortest branch cut length or an approximation of it. Compared with the traditional algorithms, the algorithm is fast and competitive.     

A globally convergent method for computing multiple vortices in a supersymmetric field theory

Computation of the solutions to the gauge field equations is known of great importance for the simulation of various particle physics systems. In this work, we establish a globally convergent iterative method for computing the multiple vortex solutions arising in a self-dual system of non-Abelian gauge field equations derived in a supersymmetric theory model. Using this method, we present a few numerical examples which demonstrate the effectiveness of the method and, at the same time, provide a concrete realization of the soliton-like behavior of the vortexlines concentrated around centers of vortices, which is believed to be essential for linear confinement in QCD.     

Meshing Requirements for Tidal Modeling in the Western North Atlantic

This paper presents an a posteriori approach to unstructured mesh generation via a localized truncation error analysis and applies it to the Western North Atlantic Tidal (WNAT) model domain. The WNAT model domain encompasses the Gulf of Mexico, the Caribbean Sea, and the North Atlantic Ocean east to the 60°W Meridian. Herein, we pay particular attention to the area surrounding the Bahamas.

A bathymetric data set with fine resolution is employed in seven separate linear, harmonic simulations of shallow water tidal flow for seven different tidal-forcing constituents. Each set of simulation results is used to perform a truncation error analysis of a linear, harmonic form of the depth-averaged momentum equations for each of the seven different tidal-forcing frequencies. Truncation error is then driven to a more uniform, domain-wide value by solving for local node spacing requirements. The process is built upon successful research aiming to produce unstructured grids for large-scale domains that can be used in the accurate and efficient modeling of shallow water flow. The methodology described herein can also be transferred to other modeling applications.

Estimate of the truncation error of finite volume discretization of the Navier–Stokes equations on colocated grids

A methodology is proposed for the calculation of the truncation error of finite volume discretizations of the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations on colocated grids. The truncation error is estimated by restricting the solution obtained on a given grid to a coarser grid and calculating the image of the discrete Navier–Stokes operator of the coarse grid on the restricted velocity and pressure field. The proposed methodology is not a new concept but its application to colocated finite volume discretizations of the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations is made possible by the introduction of a variant of the momentum interpolation technique for mass fluxes where the pressure part of the mass fluxes is not dependent on the coefficients of the linearized momentum equations. The theory presented is supported by a number of numerical experiments. The methodology is developed for two‐dimensional flows, but extension to three‐dimensional cases should not pose problems.

Spurious,zeroth-order entropy generation along a kinked wall

Numerical entropy generation is studied in the case of steady, subsonic Euler flow along a kinked solid wall. For a standard upwind finite volume discretization the numerical entropy error, a component of the global discretization error, appears to be zeroth-order in mesh size. Two possible causes of the zeroth-order entropy error are studied. First an investigation is made of the local truncation error on a kinked grid. Although this error also appears to be zeroth-order in the neighbourhood of the kink, it probably does not cause the zeroth-order entropy error. Next a study is made of the existence of a singularity in the exact solution. Probably, the Euler flow solution is singular at the kink in the wall. The form of this likely singularity is unknown. Therefore the construction of a computational method which uses a priori knowledge about the singularity is not possible. Finally it is shown by numerical experiments that the subsonic Euler flow along a kinked wall still can be computed with vanishing entropy errors by using an appropriate sequence of continuously curved walls which converge to the kinked wall in the limit of zero mesh width.
