Topological structure preserving numerical simulations of dynamical models

This paper brings together two methods producing numerical solutions with a statement of their quality — the nonstandard finite difference method and the method of validated computing. It deals with the construction and the analysis of reliable numerical discretizations of dynamical systems by employing these two techniques. An epidemiological model is used as a model example for their combined application.     

Sulfamic Acid: Efficient,Cost-Effective Catalyst for Facile Synthesis of Deazaoxaflavin at Ambient Temperature

A facile, ecofriendly procedure has been developed for the synthesis of substituted 5-deaza-10-oxaflavins by sulfamic acid–catalyzed two-component condensation of salicylaldehyde and barbituric acid at ambient temperature. Mild reaction conditions, short reaction time, ambient temperature, ecofriendly solvent system, wide substrate scope, simple workup procedure, no need for chromatographic separation, and good yields are auxiliary advantages of the present protocol.     

Research Progress of Lithium Plating on Graphite Anode in Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Lithium plating on graphite anode is triggered by harsh conditions of fast charge and low temperature, which significantly accelerates SOH (state of health) degradation and may cause safety issues of lithium ion batteries (LIBs). This paper has reviewed recent research progress of lithium plating on graphite anode. Firstly, we summarize the forming mechanisms of Li plating with corresponding influence factors, the detecting methods and hazard of Li plating. Then, approaches to suppress Li plating are discussed, including anode surface modification, electrolyte composition optimization and development of optimal charge strategies. Finally, we conclude and propose the remaining challenges and prospects in terms of mechanism research, detecting approaches, and suppressing methods of Li plating. This review highlights the development of Li plating research and plays a guiding rule of further study on Li plating in LIBs.     

Effect of finite energy of intravalley acoustic phonons on the temperature of non-equilibrium electrons in a quantum surface

The effect of finite energy of intravalley acoustic phonons on the electric field dependence of the temperature of the non-equilibrium carriers in a quantum surface has been studied here. The calculations have been made, for a rather pure material, at low lattice temperature. Numerical results are obtained for GaAs and Si. The results are interesting being significantly different from what one obtains by neglecting the phonon energy.     

On the cryogenic magnetic transition and martensitic transformation of the austenite phase of 7MoPLUS duplex stainless steel

The magnetic behaviour and martensitic transformation at cryogenic temperatures (down to 4 K) of the austenite phase of the duplex stainless steel (DSS), 7MoPLUS, were studied. As regards the prediction of Neel temperature, the empirical expressions for austenitic stainless steels are not applicable to the austenite phase of 7MoPLUS, although the composition of the austenite phase falls within the composition ranges within which the expressions were developed. Regarding the prediction of martensitic point Ms, the applicability of ‘old’ and recently developed expressions has been examined. The recently developed expressions, which take into account more alloying elements and their interactions, are not suitable for the austenite phase of 7MoPLUS. But for the ‘old’, simpler expressions, they seem to be valid in the sense that they all predict high stability of the austenite phase. Results obtained from 7MoPLUS were qualitatively the same as those obtained from another DSS, designated as 2205. Reasons for the applicability and inapplicability of these empirical expressions are suggested.     

Exact Hawking radiation of scalars,fermions, and bosons using the tunneling method without back-reaction

Hawking radiation is studied for arbitrary scalars, fermions and spin-1 bosons, using a tunneling approach, to every order in ? but ignoring back-reaction effects. It is shown that the additional quantum terms yield no new contribution to the Hawking temperature. Indeed, it is found that the limit of small ? in the standard quantum WKB approximation is replaced by the near-horizon limit in the gravitational WKB approach.     

Modified characteristic finite difference fractional step method for moving boundary value problem of percolation coupled system

For the coupled system with moving boundary values of multilayer dynamicsof fluids in porous media,a characteristic finite difference fractional step scheme appli-cable to the parallel arithmetic is put forward.Some techniques,such as the change ofregions,the calculus of variations,the piecewise threefold quadratic interpolation,themultiplicative commutation rule of difference operators,the decomposition of high orderdifference operators,and the prior estimates,are adopted.The optimal order estimatesin the l2norm are derived to determine the error in the approximate solution.This nu-merical method has been successfully used to simulate the flow of migration-accumulationof the multilayer percolation coupled system.Some numerical results are well illustratedin this paper.

悬浮液雾化进样感耦等离子体基本参数研究Ⅰ.等离子体激发温度测定

研究了悬浮液雾化进样感耦等离子体原子发射光谱基本参数——等离子体激发温度。实验用“线为温标线，并采用多谱线法测量溶液雾化进样和0．05％二氧化钛悬浮液雾化进样等离子体激发温度。测定结果显示这两种雾化进样方式的等离子体激发温度接近，为5000-6000K。随感耦等离子体原子发射光谱仪器功率的提高，悬浮液雾化进样等离子体激发温度也相应增大，但增大幅度较小。悬浮液雾化进样等离子体发射光谱分析，若单纯改变仪器功率对于颗粒在等离子体中的原子化效率没有显著的变化，因此对于分析结果没有显著的改善作用。
