We propose the concept of 'reduced frequency', a measure which can quantify natural frequencies of each pair of oscillators. Then we introduce an evolving network whose linking rules are controlled by its own dynamical property. The simulation results indicate that when the linking probability positively correlates with the reduced frequency, the network undergoes a first-order phase transition. Meanwhile, we discuss the circumstance under which an explosive synchronization can be ignited. The numerical results show that the peculiar butterfly shape correlation between frequencies and degrees of the nodes contributes to an explosive synchronization transition.展开更多

A home-made erbium-doped fiber laser frequency comb with frequency stability of 5.0 × 10-13@1 s is employed for the light source. By using a periodically poled lithium niobate, the femtosecond pulse operating in 1556 nm is frequency-doubled to 778 nm to obtain the direct two-photon transition spectroscopy of thermal rubidium vapor. Through sweeping the carrier envelope offset frequency (fceo), the 5S1/2 (F=2)→5D5/2 (F" = 4) two-photon transition line is clearly resolved and its absolute frequency is determined via the peak-finding of the fitting curve. After the frequency correction, the measured result agrees well with the previous experiment on this transition. The entire potential candidate of optical frequency standard for system configuration is compact and robust, providing a telecommunication applications.展开更多

We investigate a neural oscillator that undergoes different bifurcation transitions from the big saddle homoclinic orbit type to the saddle node on an invariant circle type, and the saddle node on an invariant circle type to the small saddle homoclinic orbit type. The bifurcation transitions are accompanied by an increase in thermodynamic temperature that affects the voltage-gated ion channel in the neural oscillator. We show that nonlinear and thermodynamical mechanisms are responsible for different switches of the frequency in the neural oscillator. We report a dynamical role of the phase response curve in switches of the frequency, in terms of slopes of frequency-temperature curve at each bifurcation transition. Adopting the transition state theory of voltagegated ion channel dynamics, we confirm that switches of the frequency occur in the first-order phase transition temperature states and exhibit different features of their potential energy derivatives in the ion channel. Each bifurcation transition also creates a discontinuity in the Arrhenius plot used to compute the time constant of the ion channel.展开更多

To date, several authors have proposed models for the “transit route network design problem” (TRNDP), and many of them use a transit assignment model as one component. However, not all models have considered the “common lines problem,” which is an essential feature in transit network assignment and is based on the concept that the fastest way to get to a destination is to take the first vehicle arriving among an “attractive” set of lines. Thus, we sought to reveal the features of considering the common lines problem by comparing results with and without considering the problem in a transit assignment model. For comparison, a model similar to a previous one was used, formulated as a bi-level optimisation problem, the upper problem of which is described as a multi-objective problem. As a result, although the solutions with and without considering the common lines showed almost the same Pareto front, we confirmed that a more direct service is provided if the common lines problem is considered whereas a less direct service is provided if it is not. With a small network case study, we found that considering the common lines problem in the TRNDP is important as it allows operators to provide more direct services.展开更多

Different results under electrical bias, optical bias or combined electrical and optical bias are analyzed for an excellent UTC-DHPT performance. The results show that when the UTC-DHPT operates at three-terminal (3T) working mode with combined electrical bias and optical bias in base, it keeps a high optical responsivity of 34.72 A/W and the highest optical transition frequency of 120 GHz. The current gain of the 3T UTC-DHPT under 1.55-μm light illuminations reaches 62 dB. This indicates that the combined base electrical bias and optical bias of 3T UTC-DHPT can make sure that the UTC-DHPT provides high optical current gain and high optical transition frequency simultaneously.展开更多

After having experienced ultravio- let aging, the low temperature performance of asphalt binder decreased significantly, with its complex modulus increased and phase angle decreased along with changing rheological properties as compared to the performance of original asphalt binder. The ultraviolet aging process would make asphalt binder more sensitive to brittle and fatigue failure. On the basis of the time-temperature superposition principle (TTSP), the viscoelastic transition frequency (coT) is proposed to evaluate the effect of ultraviolet aging. It is found that with the increase in ultraviolet aging time, the cox moves to the lower frequency range gradually. Since the viscoelastic transition frequency is sensitive to the effect of aging, it can be used as an indicator of ultraviolet aging.展开更多

According to the results from measurements within a frequency region of 850-1130 Hz, an equation (τ.ΔF = 1 - 2) defining the ambiguous region of responding to frequency transitions by human auditory system is found, where ΔF and τ are the difference and duration of the transition between two frequencies, respectively. When τ·ΔF≤1, the human auditory system can hardly sense the transition between two frequencies. However man can clearly sense not only the transition but the different tonalities of two freqencies when τ·ΔF≥2.展开更多

Recurrence plot (RP) and recurrence rate (RR), and the simplest variable of recurrence quantification analysis (RQA) were used to analyze the pressure signals. Different patterns observed in RP reflect different dynamic behavior of the system under study. It was also found that the variance of RR (a2R) Could reveal the peak dominant frequencies (PDF) of different dynamic systems: completely periodic, completely stochastic, Lorenz system, and fluidized bed. The results were compared with power spectral density. Additionally, the diagram of σ^2RR provides a new technique for prediction of transition velocity from bubbling to turbulent fluidization regime.展开更多
