Both the deterministic method and the Monte Carlo(MC) method can be used to solve the higher-order modes. However, MC method, compared to the deterministic method, faces challenges in terms of computational efficiency and α mode calculation stability, whereas the deterministic method encounters issues arising from homogenization-related geometric and energy spectra adaptation.Based on the higher-order mode diffusion calculation code HARMONY, we developed a new higher-order mode calculation code, HARMONY2.0, which retains the functionality of computing λ and α higher-order modes from HARMONY1.0, but enhances the ability to treat complex geometries and arbitrary energy spectra using the MC-deterministic hybrid two-step strategy. In HARMONY2.0, the mesh homogenized multigroup constants were obtained using OpenMC in the first step,and higher-order modes were then calculated with the mesh homogenized core diffusion model using the implicitly restarted Arnoldi method(IRAM), which was also adopted in the HARMONY1.0 code. In addition, to improve the calculation efficiency, particularly in large higher-order modes, event-driven parallelization/domain decomposition methods are embedded in the HARMONY2.0 code to accelerate the inner iteration of λ∕α mode using OpenMP. Furthermore, the higher-order modes of complex geometric models, such as Hoogenboom and ATR reactors for λ mode and the MUSE-4 experiment facility for the prompt α mode, were computed using diffusion theory.展开更多

文摘Higher-order modes of the neutron diffusion/transport equation can be used to study the temporal behavior of nuclear reactors and can be applied in modal analysis, transient analysis, and online monitoring of the reactor core. Both the deterministic method and the Monte Carlo(MC) method can be used to solve the higher-order modes. However, MC method, compared to the deterministic method, faces challenges in terms of computational efficiency and α mode calculation stability, whereas the deterministic method encounters issues arising from homogenization-related geometric and energy spectra adaptation.Based on the higher-order mode diffusion calculation code HARMONY, we developed a new higher-order mode calculation code, HARMONY2.0, which retains the functionality of computing λ and α higher-order modes from HARMONY1.0, but enhances the ability to treat complex geometries and arbitrary energy spectra using the MC-deterministic hybrid two-step strategy. In HARMONY2.0, the mesh homogenized multigroup constants were obtained using OpenMC in the first step,and higher-order modes were then calculated with the mesh homogenized core diffusion model using the implicitly restarted Arnoldi method(IRAM), which was also adopted in the HARMONY1.0 code. In addition, to improve the calculation efficiency, particularly in large higher-order modes, event-driven parallelization/domain decomposition methods are embedded in the HARMONY2.0 code to accelerate the inner iteration of λ∕α mode using OpenMP. Furthermore, the higher-order modes of complex geometric models, such as Hoogenboom and ATR reactors for λ mode and the MUSE-4 experiment facility for the prompt α mode, were computed using diffusion theory.

文摘This paper focuses on the investigation of a hyperbolic Kirchhoff equation with nonlinear damping and higher-order dissipation terms.Initially,the existence and uniqueness of local weak solutions are rigorously established.Next,within the framework of potential well theory,the classification of solution behaviors,including blow-up and global existence,is systematically analyzed according to the relationships among the exponents of nonlinear source terms.Finally,explicit bounds for the blow-up time and decay estimates for global solutions are presented.
文摘The higher-order Kaup-Newell equation is examined by applying the Fokas unified method on the half-line.We demonstrate that the solution can be expressed in relation to the resolution of the Riemann-Hilbert problem.The jump matrix for this problem is derived from the spectral matrix,which is calculated based on both the initial conditions and the boundary conditions.The jump matrix is explicitly dependent and expressed through the spectral functions,which are derived from the initial and boundary information,respectively.These spectral functions are interdependent and adhere to a so-called global relationship.
文摘In this paper,the exact boundary controllability of the higher-order KdVtype equation on torus is studied.That is,given the initial and final states in the appropriate space,by adding the appropriate control function on the boundary,the solution of the system can transition from the initial state to the specified final value.Firstly,we establish the observability inequality for the higher-order KdV-type equation by Ingham inequality.Then,based on the observability inequality,Hilbert uniqueness method and a integral identity we obtain the exact boundary controllability of the higher-order KdV-type equation.

文摘The first synthesis of flavanostilbenes with a 2-cyclohepten-1-one core was carried out by applying an effective strategy in three steps from abundant polymerized flavanol resources.A key regio-and stereoselective Cu-mediated[5+2]cycloaddition/decarboxylation cascade was explored and applied without the use of protecting groups,and water as an environmentally friendly solvent contributed to the cascade.The intramolecular[5+2]cycloaddition mechanism,involving oxidation and dearomatization of the flavanol unit as a diene,was proposed and supported by the synthesis of the intermediate.The regioselectivity of the cyclization was found to be dependent on the substitution effects of the stilbene units by the exploration of substrate scope.

文摘We are concerned with a Camassa-Holm type equation with higher-order nonlinearity including some integrable peakon models such as the Camassa-Holm equation,the Degasperis-Procesi equation,and the Novikov equation.We show that all the horizontal symmetric waves for this equation must be traveling waves.This extends the previous results for the Camassa-Holm and Novikov equations.

文摘In recent years,there has been a surge of interest in higher-order topological phases(HOTPs)across various disciplines within the field of physics.These unique phases are characterized by their ability to harbor topological protected boundary states at lower-dimensional boundaries,a distinguishing feature that sets them apart from conventional topological phases and is attributed to the higher-order bulk-boundary correspondence.Two-dimensional(2D)twisted systems offer an optimal platform for investigating HOTPs,owing to their strong controllability and experimental feasibility.Here,we provide a comprehensive overview of the latest research advancements on HOTPs in 2D twisted multilayer systems.We will mainly review the HOTPs in electronic,magnonic,acoustic,photonic and mechanical twisted systems,and finally provide a perspective of this topic.
