Lattice Dynamics at Zone-Center of Sulphide and Selenide Spinels

A rigid-ion model is used to calculate the force constants and effective dynamical charges of sulphide and selenide spinels. The Raman and infrared phonon modes of normal cubic sulphide spinels MCr₂Se₄ (M = Mn, Co, Fe, Hg, Zn, and Cd) and selenide spinels MCr₂Se₄ (M = Hg, Zn, and Cd) are calculated at the first Brillouin zone-centre using above model. The significant outcome of the present work is (i) the interatomic interaction between Cr-S (Se) dominates over the Cr-S(Se) and S-S(Se-Se) type of interatomic interactions, (ii) the effective dynamical charges of the bivalent metal ions are nearly zero, and (iii) the selenide spinels are less ionic than the sulphide spinels and the ionicity decreases as MnCr₂S₄ > FeCr₂S₄ > CoCr₂S₄ > and CdCr₂C₄ > ZnCr₂C₄ > HgCr₂C₄ (C = S and Se). The zone-center phonon frequencies, calculated using these parameters, are found to be in very good agreement with the observed results.

A lattice Boltzmann model with an amending function forsimulating nonlinear partial differential equations

This paper proposes a lattice Boltzmann model with an amending function for one-dimensional nonlinear partial differential equations (NPDEs) in the form $u_t+\alpha uu_{xx}+\beta u^n u_x+\gamma u_{xxx}+\xi u_{xxxx}=0$. This model is different from existing models because it lets the time step be equivalent to the square of the space step and derives higher accuracy and nonlinear terms in NPDEs. With the Chapman--Enskog expansion, the governing evolution equation is recovered correctly from the continuous Boltzmann equation. The numerical results agree well with the analytical solutions.     

Discrete breathers in a model with Morse potentials

Under harmonic approximation, this paper discusses the linear dispersion relation of the one-dimensional chain. The existence and evolution of discrete breathers in a general one-dimensional chain are analysed for two particular examples of soft (Morse) and hard (quartic) on-site potentials. The existence of discrete breathers in one-dimensional and two-dimensional Morse lattices is proved by using rotating wave approximation, local anharmonic approximation and a numerical method. The localization and amplitude of discrete breathers in the two-dimensional Morse lattice with on-site harmonic potentials correlate closely to the Morse parameter a and the on-site parameter к.     

Quantum phase transition and entanglement in Heisenberg XX spin chain with impurity

In this paper,we study the quantum phase transition and the effect of impurity on the thermal entanglement between any two lattices in three-qubit Heisenberg XX chain in a uniform magnetic field.We show that the quantum phase transition always appears when impurity parameter is an arbitrary constant and unequal to zero,the external magnetic field and impurity parameters have a great effect on it.Also,there exists a relation between the quantum phase transition and the entanglement.By modulating the temperature,magnetic field and the impurity parameters,the entanglement between any two lattices can exhibit platform-like behaviour,which can be used to realize entanglement switch.     

Dynamic crystal plasticity: An Eulerian approach

In this paper an Eulerian rate-dependent single crystal model that accounts for high-strain rates, large strains and rotations is developed. The viscoplastic law as well as the evolution equations for the lattice are written in terms of vectorial and tensorial quantities associated with the current configuration. The viscoplastic law is obtained from Schmid law using an overstress approach. Such an expression for the viscoplastic law is motivated by the microdynamics of crystal defects. A general analysis of the plane-strain response of the proposed rigid-viscoplastic single crystal model is presented. It is shown that only one differential equation, involving the orientation of one composite in-plane slip system, is necessary to describe the lattice evolution. Several two-dimensional boundary value problems, such as equal-channel die extrusion and channel die compression are selected to illustrate the predictive capabilities of the model. The results show that even at relatively low strain rates the viscosity plays an important role in the development of localized deformation modes. At high crosshead velocity, the plastic properties and crystal anisotropy are less important while inertia effects are dominant. Finally, the grains interaction is investigated by analyzing the compression of a grains multicrystal.     

（2＋2）-Dimensional Discrete Soliton Equations and Integrable Coupling System

In this paper, we extend a （2＋2）-dimensional continuous zero curvature equation to （2＋2）-dimensional discrete zero curvature equation, then a new （2＋2）-dimensional cubic Volterra lattice hierarchy is obtained. Fhrthermore, the integrable coupling systems of the （2＋2）-dimensional cubic Volterra lattice hierarchy and the generalized Toda lattice soliton equations are presented by using a Lie algebraic system sl（4）.     

Numerical Simulation of Two-Dimensional Flow over Three Cylinders by LatticeBoltzmann Method

The numerical simulation using the multiple relaxation time lattice Boltzmann method (MRT-LBM) is carried out for the purpose of investigating the two-dimensional flow around three circular cylinders. Among these three circular cylinders, one of the three cylinders on which a forced in-line vibrating is used to do this research and attempt to find out the effects of the movingcylinder and the other two rigid cylinders on the wake characteristics and vortex formation. As a benchmark problem to discuss the problem of lift coefficient r.m.s for these cylinders with spacing ratios T/D between other rigid side-by-side cylinders, and the calculation is carried out with two compared cases at Reynolds number of 100, two of the cylinders are rigid and the other one is an in-line vibrated cylinder lying downstream, in addition, forced vibrating amplitude and frequency are A/D= 0.5 and f_ν=0.4 (where A is the forced amplitude, D is the cylinder diameter, and f_ν stands for the vibrating frequency, respectively). The calculated results not onlyindicate that the spacing ratios T/D (T is the center-to-center spacing between the two upstream cylinders) have influence on the wake patterns and the formation of vortex shedding, but also analyze the lift coefficient r.m.s for the three cylinders with the spacing ratios S/D (where S is the center-to-center spacing between the center of upstream two side-by-side cylinders and downstream cylinder).     

Metric Expansion from Microscopic Dynamics in an Inhomogeneous Universe

Theories with ingredients like the Higgs mechanism, gravitons, and inflatonfields rejuvenate the idea that relativistic kinematics is dynamicallyemergent. Eternal inflation treats the Hubble constant H as depending onlocation. Microscopic dynamics implies that H is over much smaller lengthsthan pocket universes to be understood as a local space reproduction rate.We illustrate this via discussing that even exponential inflation inTeV-gravity is slow on the relevant time scale. In our on small scalesinhomogeneous cosmos, a reproduction rate H depends on position. We therefore discuss Einstein-Strauss vacuoles and a Lindquist-Wheeler like lattice to connect the local rate properly with the scaling of an expanding cosmos. Consistency allows H to locally depend on Weyl curvature similar to vacuum polarization. We derive a proportionality constant known from Kepler's third law and discuss the implications for the finiteness of the cosmological constant.
