The mathematical model that describes diffusion of carbon and the precipitation of M23C6 and M7C3 has been studied. A criterion to judge when the transformation of M23C6 to M7C3 is over and M7C3 precipitates directly has been given in simulated calculation. By applying the model, the carburization of HK40 steel has been calculated by means of finite difference computation techniques. The pack carburization tests for the HK40 steel have been carried out at 1273 K. The comparison between the experimental and the calculated results show acceptable agreement.展开更多

文摘A new type of localized oscillatory pattern is presented in a two-layer coupled reaction-diffusion system under conditions in which no Hopf instability can be discerned in either layer.The transitions from stationary patterns to asynchronous and synchronous oscillatory patterns are obtained.A novel method based on decomposing coupled systems into two associated subsystems has been proposed to elucidate the mechanism of formation of oscillating patterns.Linear stability analysis of the associated subsystems reveals that the Turing pattern in one layer induces the other layer locally,undergoes a supercritical Hopf bifurcation and gives rise to localized oscillations.It is found that the sizes and positions of oscillations are determined by the spatial distribution of the Turing patterns.When the size is large,localized traveling waves such as spirals and targets emerge.These results may be useful for deeper understanding of pattern formation in complex systems,particularly multilayered systems.

文摘Accurately predicting the mechanical behavior of pure metals at different radiation doses and prescribing the microstructure evolutions,such as the dislocation structures,remain challenging.This work introduces a 3D hybrid numerical simulation scheme that integrates finite element(FE)and finite difference(FD)modules.The FE module is used to implement the crystal plasticity model,while the FD module is used to solve the reaction-diffusion model regarding dislocation nucleation and transportation.Our hybrid model successfully replicates the mechanical behavior of pristine Cu single crystals and provides details of dislocation cell structures that agree with the experimental observation.Furthermore,the model effectively reflects the irradiation hardening effects for Cu single crystals and demonstrates the formation of dislocation channels and shear band type of strain localization.Our work offers an effective approach for predicting the mechanical responses and the safety evaluation of pure metals in extreme working conditions.

文摘Dengue is a mosquito-borne disease that is rampant worldwide,with up to 70%of cases reported to be asymptomatic during epidemics.In this paper,a reaction-diffusion dengue model with asymptomatic carrier transmission is investigated.We aim to study the existence,nonexistence and minimum wave speed of traveling wave solutions to the model.The results show that the existence and nonexistence of traveling wave solutions are fully determined by the threshold values,which are,the basic reproduction number R0 and critical wave speed c^(*)>0.Specifically,when R0>1 and the wave speed c≥c^(*),the existence of the traveling wave solution is obtained by using Schauder's fixed point theorem and Lyapunov functional.It is proven that the model has no nontrivial traveling wave solutions for R0≤1 or R0>1 and 0<c<c^(*)by employing comparison principle and limit theory.As a consequence,we conclude that the critical wave speed c^(*)is the minimum wave speed of the model.Finally,numerical simulations are carried out to illustrate the effects of several important parameters on the minimum wave speed.
文摘In this paper,we prove the existence of martingale solutions of a class of stochastic equations with a monotone drift of polynomial growth of arbitrary order and a continuous diffusion term with superlinear growth.Both the nonlinear drift and diffusion terms are not required to be locally Lipschitz continuous.We then apply the abstract result to establish the existence of martingale solutions of the fractional stochastic reaction-diffusion equation with polynomial drift driven by a superlinear noise.The pseudo-monotonicity techniques and the Skorokhod-Jakubowski representation theorem in a topological space are used to pass to the limit of a sequence of approximate solutions defined by the Galerkin method.

文摘Self-assembly of block copolymers(BCPs)is highly intricate and is adsorbing extensive experimental and simulation efforts to reveal it for maximizing structural order and device performances.The coarse-grained(CG)molecular dynamics(MD)simulation offers a microscopic angle to view the self-assembly of BCPs.Although some molecular details are sacrificed during CG processes,this method exhibits remarkable computational efficiency.In this study,a comprehensive CG model for polystyrene-block-poly(2-vinylpyridine),PS-b-P2VP,one of the most extensively studied BCPs for its high Flory-Huggins interaction parameter,is constructed,with parameters optimized using target values derived from all-atom MD simulations.The CG model precisely coincides with various classical self-assembling morphologies observed in experimental studies,matching the theoretical phase diagrams.Moreover,the conformational asymmetry of the experimental phase diagram is also clearly revealed by our simulation results,and the phase boundaries obtained from simulations are highly consistent with experimental results.The CG model is expected to extend to simulate the self-assembly behaviors of other BCPs in addition to PS-b-P2VP,thus increasing understanding of the microphase separation of BCPs from the molecular level.

文摘This paper investigates global solutions and long-time dynamics for the stochastic reaction-diffusion equation du=(Δu+f(u)+g(x,t))dt+σ(u)dW on a bounded domain,where the drift term f(u),with polynomial growth rate β,is strongly dissipative and the diffusion term σ(u)has growth rate γ,satisfying β+1>2γ.Under this condition,we establish the existence,uniqueness,and regularity of solutions in Bochner spaces.Our analysis relies only on weak monotonicity conditions and requires no further growth restrictions on f andσ.Moreover,we prove the existence of a weak mean random attractor for the system.These results offer new insights into the balance mechanism between stochastic perturbations and dissipative effects in superlinear regimes.

文摘The multi-scale modeling combined with the cohesive zone model(CZM)and the molecular dynamics(MD)method were preformed to simulate the crack propagation in NiTi shape memory alloys(SMAs).The metallographic microscope and image processing technology were employed to achieve a quantitative grain size distribution of NiTi alloys so as to provide experimental data for molecular dynamics modeling at the atomic scale.Considering the size effect of molecular dynamics model on material properties,a reasonable modeling size was provided by taking into account three characteristic dimensions from the perspective of macro,meso,and micro scales according to the Buckinghamπtheorem.Then,the corresponding MD simulation on deformation and fracture behavior was investigated to derive a parameterized traction-separation(T-S)law,and then it was embedded into cohesive elements of finite element software.Thus,the crack propagation behavior in NiTi alloys was reproduced by the finite element method(FEM).The experimental results show that the predicted initiation fracture toughness is in good agreement with experimental data.In addition,it is found that the dynamics initiation fracture toughness increases with decreasing grain size and increasing loading velocity.
