Applications of Thermal Analysis and Coupled Techniques in Pharmaceutical Industry

Thermal analysis methods are well-established techniques in research laboratories of pharmaceutical industry. The robustness and sensitivity of instrumentation, the introduction of automation and of reliable software according to the industrial needs widened considerably the areas of applications in the last decade. Calibration of instruments and validation of results follow the state of the art of cGMP as for other analytical techniques. Thermal analysis techniques are especially useful for the study of the behavior of the poly-phasic systems drug substances and excipients and find a unique place for new delivery systems. Since change of temperature and moisture occur by processing and storage, changes of the solid state may have a considerable effect on activity, toxicity and stability of compounds. Current requirements of the International Conference of Harmonisation for the characterization and the quantitation of polymorphism in new entities re-enforce the position of thermal analysis techniques. This challenging task needs the use of complementary methods. Combined techniques and microcalorimetry demonstrate their advantages. This article reviews the current use of thermal analysis and combined techniques in research and development and in production. The advantage of commercially coupled techniques to thermogravimetry is emphasized with some examples.

Optimal Energy-Storage Configuration for Microgrids Based on SOH Estimation and Deep Q-Network

Energy storage is an important adjustment method to improve the economy and reliability of a power system. Due to the complexity of the coupling relationship of elements such as the power source, load, and energy storage in the microgrid, there are problems of insufficient performance in terms of economic operation and efficient dispatching. In view of this, this paper proposes an energy storage configuration optimization model based on reinforcement learning and battery state of health assessment. Firstly, a quantitative assessment of battery health life loss based on deep learning was performed. Secondly, on the basis of considering comprehensive energy complementarity, a two-layer optimal configuration model was designed to optimize the capacity configuration and dispatch operation. Finally, the feasibility of the proposed method in microgrid energy storage planning and operation was verified by experimentation. By integrating reinforcement learning and traditional optimization methods, the proposed method did not rely on the accurate prediction of the power supply and load and can make decisions based only on the real-time information of the microgrid. In this paper, the advantages and disadvantages of the proposed method and existing methods were analyzed, and the results show that the proposed method can effectively improve the performance of dynamic planning for energy storage in microgrids.     

Error Performance of Amplitude Shift Keying-Type Asymmetric Quantum Communication Systems

We propose an amplitude shift keying-type asymmetric quantum communication (AQC) system that uses an entangled state. As a first step toward development of this system, we evaluated and considered the communication performance of the proposed receiver when applied to the AQC system using a two-mode squeezed vacuum state (TSVS), the maximum quasi-Bell state, and the non-maximum quasi-Bell state, along with an asymmetric classical communication (ACC) system using the coherent state. Specifically, we derived an analytical expression for the error probability of the AQC system using the quasi-Bell state. Comparison of the error probabilities of the ACC system and the AQC systems when using the TSVS and the quasi-Bell state shows that the AQC system using the quasi-Bell state offers a clear performance advantage under specific conditions. Additionally, it was clarified that there are cases where the universal lower bound on the error probability for the AQC system was almost achieved when using the quasi-Bell state, unlike the case in which the TSVS was used.     

Reynolds数对大攻角细长旋成体绕流滚转角效应影响的数值研究

使用低耗散的Roe格式,数值模拟了Reynolds数(Re)对大攻角细长旋成体绕流滚转角效应的影响.模型头部加了几何小扰动块以引发流场的不对称.在较大的Re数(Re=10 5)下,本文的计算结果与实验是相符的,此时细长体的滚转会导致双稳态、双周期现象,即侧向力随滚转角呈现类似方波形式的双周期变化,方波中侧向力基本保持不变的状态对应于流场的正则态,且两个正则态的侧向力方向相反,方波中侧向力基本保持不变的状态对应于流场的正则态,且两个正则态的侧向力方向相反;而在较小的Re数(Re=4 000)下,如果扰动足够大,细长体的滚转将导致不同的双稳态现象,此时两个正则态的侧向力方向相同,而在较小扰动下双稳态现象不再出现;Re数更小时(Re=1 000),即使在较大的扰动下,双稳态现象也不再出现,侧向力随滚动角仍是连续变化的.本文的计算结果表明,Re数越小,流场对头部扰动的感受性越弱.     

Positions and Widths of Anticrossings for Potassium Rydberg Stark States

The B-spline expansion technique is applied to study the anticrossings for potassium Rydberg states in a static electric field. The results of our calculation indicate that the antierossings are caused mainly by the core interaction or by the fine structure interaction. Our results for the positions and the widths of the anticrossings are in good agreement with experimental data.     

Friedmann Cosmology with a Generalized Equation of State and Bulk Viscosity

The universe content is considered as a non-perfect fluid with bulk viscosity and is described by a more general equation of state (endowed some deviation from the conventionally assuned cosmic perfect fluid model).We assume the bulk viscosity is a linear combination of two termsone is constant,and the other is proportional to the scalar expansion θ = 3a/a.The equation of state is described as p = (γ - 1)p p0,where p0 is a parameter.In this framework we demonstrate that this model can be used to explain the dark energy dominated universe,and different proper choices of the parameters may lead to three kinds of fates of the cosmological evolutionno future singularity,big rip,or Type-Ⅲ singularity as presented in [S.Nojiri,S.D.Odintsov,and S.Tsujikawa,Phys.Rev.D 71 (2005) 063004].
