Planar and axially symmetric slow shearing granular flows: a comparative evaluation of assembly evolution incorporating wavelet transforms

We demonstrate the enhanced capacities of our analysis toolset for three-dimensional data. In particular, we provide supporting evidence for some of the conclusions reached in our previous studies of two-dimensional avalanching heaps. Segregation by self-diffusion is shown to take place in three-dimensional assemblies and self-diffusion velocities are shown to be of a comparable order of magnitude to those found in plane-strain situations. The effect on assembly evolution by discrete avalanching of the availability of a third dimension for translation is investigated. The discrete wavelet transform is again shown to be a useful component of the toolset in coupling process variables in the context of the discrete defining events associated with assembly evolution. In particular, we move towards the determination of time constants by correlating wavelet coefficients with a time shift.

Modeling of fast pulse responses in the Multitrack: an advanced TAP reactor

A detailed transport model for the Multitrack setup, a TAP-like system, has been developed, which allows further analysis of adsorption, diffusion and catalysis phenomena. This includes the transport in the void part between the pulse valve and the reactor inlet. The effects of viscous flow and thermal transpiration, aspects that have not been studied in detail before for this type of setup, have been analyzed. A new expression for the modeling of the output signal is proposed depending on the positioning of the MS detector used in the study. The transport parameters of the model have been estimated by the analysis of the experimental pulse responses of the empty reactor system and the reactor charged with an inert packed bed. The proposed model reproduces the experimental pulse responses very well, and therefore can be extended to study systems with reacting or adsorbing beds by including the corresponding rate equations for the processes occurring in the bed of particles.     

LOCAL EQUILIBRIUM THEORY FOR THE DYNAMICS OF NONISOTHERMAL MIXED GAS ADSORPTION OF HIGH-CONCENTRATION COMPONENTS

A local equilibrium theory for nonisothermal gas adsorption is developed which accounts for variations in interstitial gas velocity induced by adsorption. Also presented are expressions describing the entropy admissibility criterion. A solution is developed for a Riemann's problem involving adiabatic gas-phase adsorption where there is no inert diluent and where Langmuir isotherms apply.     

PHASE-SPACE DIFFUSION EQUATIONS FOR SINGLE BROWNIAN PARTICLE MOTION NEAR SURFACES

In numerous physical processes involving the motion of micron and submicron sized particles near surfaces, such as the filtration of hydrosols and aerosols, the particle motion is the net result of the combined effects of fluid convection, external forces, particle inertia, Brownian particle motion, and particle-surface fluid dynamic interactions. The most general method of describing particle motion under the combined action of these effects is through the so-called Fokker-Planck equation. In the absence of particle-surface fluid dynamic interactions, the Fokker-Planck equation is well-known, and it has been applied in a general way to problems involving the adsorption or deposition of Brownian particles onto surfaces through a solution technique known as the Brownian dynamics simulation method.

In this study, the Fokker-Planck equation for Brownian particle motion near surfaces is generalized to include particle-surface fluid dynamic interactions. The Fokker-Planck equation is shown to follow from the Liouville equation for the Brownian particle and n-fluid molecules present in the system, thus, establishing a firm theoretical foundation for the Fokker-Planck equation and the various other phase-space diffusion equations that follow from it.

Based on diagonalization of the Fokker-Planck equation, its short-time behavior is also derived here which enables a generalization of the Brownian dynamics method for the study of particle motion near surfaces including fluid dynamic interactions. Additionally, a perturbation solution of the Fokker-Planck equation under the conditions of small, but finite particle Stokes number is also derived. These solutions are shown to agree with previously given representations of the Smoluchowski or convective-diffusion equation for Brownian particle motion near surfaces, as well as with inertial corrections to the Smoluchowski equation available in the literature. This latter equation is also generalized here to include particle-surface fluid dynamic interactions.     

Important issues in a molecular dynamics simulation for characterising the mechanical properties of carbon nanotubes

This paper discusses several important issues in a molecular dynamics simulation for analysing carbon nanotubes and their mechanical properties. In particular, the paper addresses the problems in selecting appropriate inter-atomic potentials, number of thermostat atoms, thermostat techniques, time and displacement steps and number of relaxation steps to reach the dynamic equilibrium. Based on these, the structural changes of armchair and zigzag nanotubes and their mechanical properties are investigated. The Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio of the armchair tube are 3.96 and 0.15 TPa, respectively, and those of the zigzag tube are 4.88 and 0.19 TPa, respectively. The best simulation technique identified in this study predicts that the ultimate tensile strain of a carbon nanotube is around 40% before atomic bond breakage.

Analysis of junction temperatures in high-power GaN-based LEDs

We presented the analysis of the incomplete conduction in bonding medium in high power GaN-based light-emitting diode (LED) packages. A numerical study was carried out with parametric model to understand the junction temperature variation due to bonding medium defects.

It was suggested that only 60% of the surface area of the bonding medium was involved...     

基于淘宝的卖家信用动态评价模型改进研究

在C2C电子商务中,卖家的信用评价成为买方规避不确定性与交易风险的重要指标。目前国内以淘宝为代表的C2C电子商务采用的信用评价方法是简单的互评机制。这种方法在实际应用中忽略了信用的生命周期、信用的评价权重、顾客满意度评价尺度差异等重要因素,得出的卖方信用水平与其实际值偏离较大。论文在已有信用评价方法中引入信用的评价权重、顾客满意度评价尺度差异、初始评价值等因素,对已有的信用评价方法与模型做出改进。改进后的动态信用评价模型较好地解决了目前存在的信用评价失真问题,具有一定的现实意义。
