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

strategies are ess...Recent engineering applications increasingly adopt smart materials,whose mechanical responses are sensitive to magnetic and electric fields.In this context,new and computationally efficient modeling strategies are essential to predict the multiphysic behavior of advanced structures accurately.Therefore,the manuscript presents a higher-order formulation for the static analysis of laminated anisotropic magneto-electro-elastic doubly-curved shell structures.The fundamental relations account for the full coupling between the electric field,magnetic field,and mechanical elasticity.The configuration variables are expanded along the thickness direction using a generalized formulation based on the Equivalent Layer-Wise approach.Higher-order polynomials are selected,allowing for the assessment of prescribed values of the configuration variables at the top and bottom sides of solids.In addition,an effective strategy is provided for modeling general surface distributions of mechanical pressures and electromagnetic external fluxes.The model is based on a continuum-based formulation which employs an analytical homogenization of the multifield material properties,based on Mori&Tanaka approach,of a magneto-electro-elastic composite material obtained from a piezoelectric and a piezomagnetic phase,with coupled magneto-electro-elastic effects.A semi-analytical Navier solution is applied to the fundamental equations,and an efficient post-processing equilibrium-based procedure is here used,based on the numerical assessment with the Generalized Differential Quadrature(GDQ)method,to recover the response of three-dimensional shells.The formulation is validated through various examples,investigating the multifield response of panels of different curvatures and lamination schemes.An efficient homogenization procedure,based on the Mori&Tanaka approach,is employed to obtain the three-dimensional constitutive relation of magneto-electro-elastic materials.Each model is validated against three-dimensional finite-element simulations,as developed in commercial codes.Furthermore,the full coupling effect between the electric and magnetic response is evaluated via a parametric investigation,with useful insights for design purposes of many engineering applications.The paper,thus,provides a formulation for the magneto-electro-elastic analysis of laminated structures,with a high computational efficiency,since it provides results with three-dimensional capabilities with a two-dimensional formulation.The adoption of higher-order theories,indeed,allows us to efficiently predict not only the mechanical response of the structure as happens in existing literature,but also the through-the-thickness distribution of electric and magnetic variables.A novel higher-order theory has been proposed in this work for the magneto-electro-elastic analysis of laminated shell structures with varying curvatures.This theory employs a generalized method to model the distribution of the displacement field components,electrostatic,and magneto-static potential,accounting for higher-order polynomials.The thickness functions have been defined to prescribe the arbitrary values of configuration variables at the top and bottom surfaces,even though the model is ESL-based.The fundamental governing equations have been derived in curvilinear principal coordinates,considering all coupling effects among different physical phenomena,including piezoelectric,piezomagnetic,and magneto-electric effects.A homogenization algorithm based on a Mori&Tanaka approach has been adopted to obtain the equivalent magneto-electro-mechanical properties of a two-phase transversely isotropic composite.In addition,an effective method has been adopted involving the external loads in terms of surface tractions,as well as the electric and magnetic fluxes.In the post-processing stage,a GDQ-based procedure provides the actual 3D response of a doubly-curved solid.The model has been validated through significant numerical examples,showing that the results of this semi-analytical theory align well with those obtained from 3D numerical models from commercial codes.In particular,the accuracy of the model has been verified for lamination schemes with soft layers and various curvatures under different loading conditions.Moreover,this formulation has been used to predict the effect of combined electric and magnetic loads on the mechanical response of panels with different curvatures and lamination schemes.As a consequence,this theory can be applied in engineering applications where the combined effect of electric and magnetic loads is crucial,thus facilitating their study and design.An existing limitation of this study is that the solution is that it is derived only for structures with uniform curvature,cross-ply lamination scheme,and simply supported boundary conditions.Furthermore,it requires that each lamina within the stacking sequence exhibits magneto-electro-elastic behavior.Therefore,at the present stage,it cannot be used for multifield analysis of classical composite structures with magneto-electric patches.A further enhancement of the research work could be the derivation of a solution employing a numerical technique,to overcome the limitations of the Navier method.In this way,the same theory may be adopted to predict the multifield response of structures with variable curvatures and thickness,as well as anisotropic materials and more complicated boundary conditions.Acknowledgement:The authors are grateful to the Department of Innovation Engineering of Univer-sity of Salento for the support.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BACKGROUND Given their responsibility for the well-being of individuals,nurses with advanced mental health literacy,along with strong holistic nursing competencies and professional self-efficacy,are better equipped to assess both the mental and physical health of their patients,leading to the provision of holistic nursing care.AIM To investigate the relationship between nurses’mental health literacy levels and their holistic nursing competencies,as well as their nursing professional selfefficacy.METHODS This study is cross-sectional,correlational research.The study sample consisted of a total of 261 volunteer nurses working in a training and research hospital and a state hospital between March 11,2024 and April 8,2024.Data were collected face to face with the“Descriptive Data Form”,“Mental Health Literacy Scale(MHLS)”,“Holistic Nursing Competence Scale(HNCS)”,and the“Nursing Profession Self-Efficacy Scale(NPSES)”.RESULTS The mean scale scores for the nurses were as follows:MHLS:95.88±11.67;HNCS:179.46±33.82;NPSES:64.79±11.24.A low-level positive correlation was found between the total scores of the MHLS,HNCS,and NPSES,and a moderate-level positive correlation was observed between the total scores of the HNCS and NPSES.These correlations were statistically significant(P<0.05).CONCLUSION It is recommended that initiatives be undertaken to enhance the mental health literacy and holistic nursing competencies of nurses and that similar studies be conducted with nurses in different institutions and with a larger number of nurses.

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.

文摘This study investigates and explores the teaching of higher vocational English courses for non-English majors from the perspective of core competencies.First,it outlines the current research status of core competencies and analyzes the national-level requirements for English core competencies.Subsequently,based on professional training objectives and curriculum standards,a questionnaire on the core competencies of English courses has been designed to understand students’perceptions and experiences regarding the development of their competencies in areas such as workplace communication,cross-cultural exchange,language thinking enhancement,and autonomous learning improvement.The survey results showed that the majority of students had a positive attitude towards the effectiveness of English courses in cultivating the aforementioned core competencies.However,some students also suggest improvements,such as increasing practical opportunities and strengthening cultural exchange.Based on this,the study further explores how to integrate the cultivation of core competencies into classroom teaching,including the use of a combination of formative and summative assessments,the design of teaching content and activities related to the workplace and cross-cultural communication,and the guidance of students to actively explore and apply their knowledge,thereby enhancing their English language application abilities.This study has certain reference value for the optimization of the higher vocational English curriculum system and the reform of teaching methods.

文摘The exploration of topological phases remains a cutting-edge research frontier,driven by their promising potential for next-generation electronic and quantum technologies.In this work,we employ first-principles calculations and tightbinding modeling to systematically investigate the topological properties of freestanding two-dimensional(2D)honeycomb Bi,HgTe,and Al_(2)O_(3)(0001)-supported HgTe.Remarkably,all three systems exhibit coexistence of intrinsic first-and higher-order topological insulator states,induced by spin-orbit coupling(SOC).These states manifest as topologically protected gapless edge states in one-dimensional(1D)nanoribbons and symmetry-related corner states in zero-dimensional(0D)nanoflakes.Furthermore,fractional electron charges may accumulate at the corners of armchair-edged nanoflakes.Among these materials,HgTe/Al_(2)O_(3)(0001)is particularly promising due to its experimentally feasible atomic configuration and low-energy corner states.Our findings highlight the importance of exploring higher-order topological phases in quantum spin Hall insulators and pave the way for new possibilities in device applications.

文摘Recent engineering applications increasingly adopt smart materials,whose mechanical responses are sensitive to magnetic and electric fields.In this context,new and computationally efficient modeling strategies are essential to predict the multiphysic behavior of advanced structures accurately.Therefore,the manuscript presents a higher-order formulation for the static analysis of laminated anisotropic magneto-electro-elastic doubly-curved shell structures.The fundamental relations account for the full coupling between the electric field,magnetic field,and mechanical elasticity.The configuration variables are expanded along the thickness direction using a generalized formulation based on the Equivalent Layer-Wise approach.Higher-order polynomials are selected,allowing for the assessment of prescribed values of the configuration variables at the top and bottom sides of solids.In addition,an effective strategy is provided for modeling general surface distributions of mechanical pressures and electromagnetic external fluxes.The model is based on a continuum-based formulation which employs an analytical homogenization of the multifield material properties,based on Mori&Tanaka approach,of a magneto-electro-elastic composite material obtained from a piezoelectric and a piezomagnetic phase,with coupled magneto-electro-elastic effects.A semi-analytical Navier solution is applied to the fundamental equations,and an efficient post-processing equilibrium-based procedure is here used,based on the numerical assessment with the Generalized Differential Quadrature(GDQ)method,to recover the response of three-dimensional shells.The formulation is validated through various examples,investigating the multifield response of panels of different curvatures and lamination schemes.An efficient homogenization procedure,based on the Mori&Tanaka approach,is employed to obtain the three-dimensional constitutive relation of magneto-electro-elastic materials.Each model is validated against three-dimensional finite-element simulations,as developed in commercial codes.Furthermore,the full coupling effect between the electric and magnetic response is evaluated via a parametric investigation,with useful insights for design purposes of many engineering applications.The paper,thus,provides a formulation for the magneto-electro-elastic analysis of laminated structures,with a high computational efficiency,since it provides results with three-dimensional capabilities with a two-dimensional formulation.The adoption of higher-order theories,indeed,allows us to efficiently predict not only the mechanical response of the structure as happens in existing literature,but also the through-the-thickness distribution of electric and magnetic variables.A novel higher-order theory has been proposed in this work for the magneto-electro-elastic analysis of laminated shell structures with varying curvatures.This theory employs a generalized method to model the distribution of the displacement field components,electrostatic,and magneto-static potential,accounting for higher-order polynomials.The thickness functions have been defined to prescribe the arbitrary values of configuration variables at the top and bottom surfaces,even though the model is ESL-based.The fundamental governing equations have been derived in curvilinear principal coordinates,considering all coupling effects among different physical phenomena,including piezoelectric,piezomagnetic,and magneto-electric effects.A homogenization algorithm based on a Mori&Tanaka approach has been adopted to obtain the equivalent magneto-electro-mechanical properties of a two-phase transversely isotropic composite.In addition,an effective method has been adopted involving the external loads in terms of surface tractions,as well as the electric and magnetic fluxes.In the post-processing stage,a GDQ-based procedure provides the actual 3D response of a doubly-curved solid.The model has been validated through significant numerical examples,showing that the results of this semi-analytical theory align well with those obtained from 3D numerical models from commercial codes.In particular,the accuracy of the model has been verified for lamination schemes with soft layers and various curvatures under different loading conditions.Moreover,this formulation has been used to predict the effect of combined electric and magnetic loads on the mechanical response of panels with different curvatures and lamination schemes.As a consequence,this theory can be applied in engineering applications where the combined effect of electric and magnetic loads is crucial,thus facilitating their study and design.An existing limitation of this study is that the solution is that it is derived only for structures with uniform curvature,cross-ply lamination scheme,and simply supported boundary conditions.Furthermore,it requires that each lamina within the stacking sequence exhibits magneto-electro-elastic behavior.Therefore,at the present stage,it cannot be used for multifield analysis of classical composite structures with magneto-electric patches.A further enhancement of the research work could be the derivation of a solution employing a numerical technique,to overcome the limitations of the Navier method.In this way,the same theory may be adopted to predict the multifield response of structures with variable curvatures and thickness,as well as anisotropic materials and more complicated boundary conditions.Acknowledgement:The
