Based on three dimensional nonlinear evolution equations for atmosphere and sea motion, a three dimensional compact upwind scheme (CUWS) is constructed, as the basis of the DS-EDE. The DS-EDE satisfies the following condition of energy dynamic equilibrium (EDE): the total work of external forces on the region boundary is equal to the sum of the total effective variation of the kinetic energy and the energy dissipation in the average flow motion and the effective variation of the potential energy per unit time within the region of interest. It really reflects the basic mechanism of the action of external forces and dissipation in atmosphere and sea movement. Therefore, the DS-EDE developed in this paper is a suitable model for simulating long-term atmosphere and sea movement with forcing and dissipation.展开更多

It mainly integrates three dimensions within a traffic system: drivers' pattern of behavior and preferences, urban traffic desires, and capabilities of traffic information service providers. Based on the above, functional segments from several related backgrounds are brought together to structure a new architecture, called Interactive Traveler Information System (ITIS). The main interactive feature of this new architecture is a two-way communication track between drivers and the traffic information system provider-in fact, a decision on choosing a road at a particular time for an individual will be made based on the utility of both sides. This new configuration consists of driver-side smartphone application, centric traffic prediction, and decision-maker units, which will shape a new approach of decision-making processes. These all work together to satisfy the designated goal of ITIS, which is preserving the Wardrop equilibrium condition in the traffic network level. Finally, we concentrate on a comparison study, which shows a differentiation between performance of the proposed ITIS and the current ATIS model in a real situation. This has been done with simulations of analogical scenarios. The most noticeable advantage of the proposed architecture is not being limited to a saturation limit, and the positive effect of increasing system penetration in the performance of the newly introduced information system. In conclusion, new research subjects are suggested to be carried out.展开更多

The experiment was carded out in a constant volume vessel with a horizontal circulation pipe and a peristaltic pump forced CO2 saturated water to flow. The temperature and pressure were recorded. The results showed that some CO2 escaped from the water in the flow process and the pressure increased, indicating that the gas-liquid equilibrium was broken. The amount of escaped CO2 varied with flow speed and reached a limit in a few minutes, entitled dy- namic equilibrium. Temperature and liquid movement played the same important role in breaking the phase equilib- rium. Under the experimental conditions, the ratio of the excessive carbon dioxide in the gas phase to its thermody- namic equilibrium amount in the liquid could achieve 15%.展开更多

This paper presents the simulated economy-wide impacts of climate change on the agriculture sector of Ethiopia using a dynamic computable general equilibrium (CGE) model. The study simulated the scenarios of agricultural productivity change induced by climate change up to the year 2050. At national level, the simulation results suggest that crop production will be adversely affected during the coming four decades and the severity will increase over the time period. Production of teff, maize and sorghum will decline by 25.4, 21.8 and 25.2 percent, respectively by 2050 compared to the base period. Climate change will also cause losses of 31.1 percent agricultural GDP at factor cost by 2050. Climate change affects more the income and consumption of poor rural households than urban rural non-farming households. The reduction in agricultural production will not be evenly distributed across agro ecological zones, and will not all be negative. Among rural residents, climate change impacts tend to hurt the income of the poor more in drought prone regions. Income from labor, land and livestock in moisture sufficient highland cereal-based will decline by 5.1, 8.8 and 15.2 percent in 2050. This study indicated that since climate change is an inevitable phenomenon, the country should start mainstreaming adaptation measures to sustain the overall performance of the economy.展开更多

Methods A new concept of dynamic equilibrium of a system and its stability were presented first. It was pointed out that what is controlled directly by the input of a control system is the system's dynamic equilibrium rather than the states. Based on it, a new feedback linearization method for nonlinear system based on the Lyapunov direct method was given. Simulation studies were also carried out. Results The example and simulation show that by use of the method, the controller design becomes very simple and the control effect is quite satisfying. Conclusion The new method unifies the stabilizing problem(regulating problem) with the tracking problem. It is a very simple and effective method for the design of nonlinear and time varying control system.展开更多

The ...The paper is devoted to mathematical modelling of static and dynamic stability of a simply supported three-layered beam with a metal foam core. Mechanical properties of the core vary along the vertical direction. The field of displacements is for- mulated using the classical broken line hypothesis and the proposed nonlinear hypothesis that generalizes the classical one. Using both hypotheses, the strains are determined as well as the stresses of each layer. The kinetic energy, the elastic strain energy, and the work of load are also determined. The system of equations of motion is derived using Hamilton's principle. Finally, the system of three equations is reduced to one equation of motion, in particular, the Mathieu equation. The Bubnov-Galerkin method is used to solve the system of equations of motion, and the Runge-Kutta method is used to solve the second-order differential equation. Numerical calculations are done for the chosen family of beams. The critical loads, unstable regions, angular frequencies of the beam, and the static and dynamic equilibrium paths are calculated analytically and verified numerically. The results of this study are presented in the forms of figures and tables.展开更多

The Green–Kubo relation derived from linear response theory is used to acquire the thermal conductivity from heat current auto-correlation function(HCACF). HCACF of the selected BNNR system shows a tendency of a very fast decay and then be followed by a very slow decay process,finally,approaching zero approximately within 3 ps. The convergence of lattice thermal conductivity demonstrates that the thermal conductivity of BNNR can be simulated by EMD simulation using several thousands of atoms with periodic boundary conditions. The results show that BNNR exhibit lower thermal conductivity than that of boron nitride(BN) monolayer,which indicates that phonons boundary scatting significantly suppresses the phonons transport in BNNR. Vacancies in BNNR greatly affect the lattice thermal conductivity,in detail,only 1% concentration of vacancies in BNNR induce a 60% reduction of the lattice thermal conductivity at room temperature.展开更多

From the aspect of observation, the PMOI can be calculated from the spherical coefficients of observed gravity field. In this paper, the PMOI are calculated directly according to its definition with the figures of the Earth's interior derived by a generalized theory of the hydrostatic equilibrium figure of the Earth. We obtain that the angle between the principal axis of the maximum moment of PMOI and the rotational axis is 0.184~, which means that the other two principal axes are very closely in the equatorial plane. Meanwhile, B-A is 1.60 x 10-5 MR2, and the global dynamical flattening (H) is calculated to be 3.29587 ~ 10-3, which is 0.67% different from the latest observation derived value Hobs(3.273795 × 10 ^-3) (Petit and Luzum, 2010), and this is a significant improvement from the 1.1% difference between the value of H derived from traditional theories of the figure of the Earth and the value of Hobs. It shows that we can calculate the PMOI and H with an appropriate accuracy by a gener- alized theory of the hydrostatic equilibrium figure of the Earth.展开更多

文摘The paper is devoted to mathematical modelling of static and dynamic stability of a simply supported three-layered beam with a metal foam core. Mechanical properties of the core vary along the vertical direction. The field of displacements is for- mulated using the classical broken line hypothesis and the proposed nonlinear hypothesis that generalizes the classical one. Using both hypotheses, the strains are determined as well as the stresses of each layer. The kinetic energy, the elastic strain energy, and the work of load are also determined. The system of equations of motion is derived using Hamilton's principle. Finally, the system of three equations is reduced to one equation of motion, in particular, the Mathieu equation. The Bubnov-Galerkin method is used to solve the system of equations of motion, and the Runge-Kutta method is used to solve the second-order differential equation. Numerical calculations are done for the chosen family of beams. The critical loads, unstable regions, angular frequencies of the beam, and the static and dynamic equilibrium paths are calculated analytically and verified numerically. The results of this study are presented in the forms of figures and tables.

文摘Dynamic coupling modeling and analysis of rotating beams based on the nonlinear Green-Lagrangian strain are introduced in this work.With the reservation of the axial nonlinear strain,there are more coupling terms for axial and transverse deformations.The discretized dynamic governing equations are obtained by using the finite element method and Lagrange’s equations of the second kind.Time responses are conducted to compare the proposed model with other previous models.The stretching deformation due to rotating motion is observed and calculated by special formulations under dynamic equilibrium.The stretching deformation and the change of the associated equilibrium position are taken into account to analyze the free vibration and frequency response of the rotating beams.Analytical and numerical comparisons show that the proposed model can provide reliable results,while the previous models may lead to imprecise results,especially in high-speed conditions.

文摘The behavior of two immiscible low-viscosity liquids differing in density and viscosity in a vertical flat layer undergoing modulated rotation is experimentally studied.The layer has a circular axisymmetric boundary.In the absence of modulation of the rotation speed,the interphase boundary has the shape of a short axisymmetric cylinder.A new effect has been discovered,under the influence of rotation speed modulation,the interface takes on a new dynamic equilibrium state.A more viscous liquid covers the end boundaries of the layer in the form of thin films,which have the shape of round spots of almost constant radius;with increasing amplitude of the velocity modulation,the wetting boundary expands.It is found that upon reaching the critical amplitude of oscillations,the film of a viscous liquid loses stability,and the outer edge of the wetting spot collapses and takes on a feathery structure.It is shown that this threshold is caused by the development of the Kelvin-Helmholtz oscillatory instability of the film.The spreading radius of a spot of light viscous liquid and its stability are studied depending on the rotation rate,amplitude,and frequency of rotation speed modulation.The discovered averaged effects are determined by different oscillatory interaction of fluids with the end-walls of the cell,due to different viscosities.The effect of films forming can find application in technological processes to intensify mass transfer at interphase boundaries.

文摘The lattice thermal conductivity of boron nitride nanoribbon(BNNR) is calculated by using equilibrium molecular dynamics(EMD) simulation method. The Green–Kubo relation derived from linear response theory is used to acquire the thermal conductivity from heat current auto-correlation function(HCACF). HCACF of the selected BNNR system shows a tendency of a very fast decay and then be followed by a very slow decay process,finally,approaching zero approximately within 3 ps. The convergence of lattice thermal conductivity demonstrates that the thermal conductivity of BNNR can be simulated by EMD simulation using several thousands of atoms with periodic boundary conditions. The results show that BNNR exhibit lower thermal conductivity than that of boron nitride(BN) monolayer,which indicates that phonons boundary scatting significantly suppresses the phonons transport in BNNR. Vacancies in BNNR greatly affect the lattice thermal conductivity,in detail,only 1% concentration of vacancies in BNNR induce a 60% reduction of the lattice thermal conductivity at room temperature.
文摘As an indication of the Earth's mass distribution, the principal moments of inertia (PMOI, i.e., A, B, C) of the Earth are the basic parameters in studies of the global dynamics of the earth, like earth nutation, and the geophysics. From the aspect of observation, the PMOI can be calculated from the spherical coefficients of observed gravity field. In this paper, the PMOI are calculated directly according to its definition with the figures of the Earth's interior derived by a generalized theory of the hydrostatic equilibrium figure of the Earth. We obtain that the angle between the principal axis of the maximum moment of PMOI and the rotational axis is 0.184~, which means that the other two principal axes are very closely in the equatorial plane. Meanwhile, B-A is 1.60 x 10-5 MR2, and the global dynamical flattening (H) is calculated to be 3.29587 ~ 10-3, which is 0.67% different from the latest observation derived value Hobs(3.273795 × 10 ^-3) (Petit and Luzum, 2010), and this is a significant improvement from the 1.1% difference between the value of H derived from traditional theories of the figure of the Earth and the value of Hobs. It shows that we can calculate the PMOI and H with an appropriate accuracy by a gener- alized theory of the hydrostatic equilibrium figure of the Earth.

文摘Building a unified national market serves as a fundamental support and intrinsic requirement for creating a new development pattern and pursuing high-quality economic development.This paper examines the impact of external demand shocks and domestic market segmentation on China's economic growth and economic structure.It further discusses the potential role of establishing a unified national market in promoting the high-quality development of China's economy.Based on the dynamic quantitative spatial general equilibrium model,this paper characterizes the relationships among external demand shocks,market segmentation,economic growth,and economic structure within a unified theoretical framework.lt accounts for major macroeconomic phenomena observed in China before and after the 2008 global financial crisis,such as the initial rise and subsequent decline in the economic growth rate and the transition from imbalance to balance in industrial structure,income distribution structure,and consumption-saving structure.The study finds that domestic market segmentation exacerbates the negative effects of shrinking external demand on economic growth and economic structure,while a unified national market can reduce the extent of decline in the economic growth rate by two-thirds.This paper further estimates the potential impacts of reducing segmentation in product and labor markets on economic growth and social welfare,and finds that product market integration has a more significant effect on promoting economic growth,while labor market integration is more beneficial for improving social welfare.Both help to facilitate high-quality economic rebalancing.The policy implication of this paper lies in that developing a unified national market has a great potential to drive economic growth and economic rebalancing.Reform is needed to unleash institutional dividends,enabling regions to shift from"segmentation"to"regional division of labor,"and facilitating high-quality economic development.

文摘The rapid advancements in ultrafast laser technology have paved the way forpumping and probing the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of nuclei in crystals.However,interpreting these experiments is extremely challenging due to the complex nonlinear responses in systems where lattice excitations interact,particularly in crystals composed of light atoms or at low temperatures where the quantum nature of ions becomes significant.In this work,we address the nonequilibrium quantum ionic dynamics from first principles.Our approach is general and can be applied to simulate any crystal,in combination with a first-principles treatment of electrons or external machine-learning potentials.It is implemented by leveraging the nonequilibrium time-dependent self-consistent harmonic approximation(TD-SCHA),with a stable,energy-conserving,correlated stochastic integration scheme that achieves an accuracy of O(dt^(3)).We benchmark the method with both a simple onedimensional model to test its accuracy and a realistic 40-atom cell of SrTiO_(3)under THz laser pump,paving the way for simulations of ultrafast THz-Xraypump-probe spectroscopy like those performed in synchrotron facilities.
