It is established based on a proposed Coiflet-based approximation scheme with an adjustable high order for the functions over a bounded interval, which allows the expansion coefficients to be explicitly expressed by the function values at a series of single points. When the solution method is used, the nonlinear initial boundary value problems are first spatially discretized into a series of nonlinear initial value problems by combining the proposed wavelet approximation and the conventional Galerkin method, and a novel high-order step-by-step time integrating approach is then developed for the resulting nonlinear initial value problems with the same function approximation scheme based on the wavelet theory. The solution method is shown to have the N th-order accuracy, as long as the Coiflet with [0, 3 N-1]compact support is adopted, where N can be any positive even number. Typical examples in mechanics are considered to justify the accuracy and efficiency of the method.展开更多

The rate of expansion is the Hubble constant. There are two major ways of measuring the expansion of the Universe: through the cosmic distance ladder and through looking at the signals originated from the beginning of the Universe. These two methods give quite different results for the Hubble constant. Hence, the Universe doesn’t expand. The solution to this problem is the theory of gravitation in flat space-time where space isn’t expanding. All the results of gravitation for weak fields of this theory agree with those of General Relativity to measurable accuracy whereas at the beginning of the Universe the results of both theories are quite different, i.e. no singularity by gravitation in flat space-time and non-expanding universe, and a Big Bang (singularity) by General Relativity.展开更多

Typical examples in mechanics are considered to justify the accuracy and efficiency of the method.

文摘General Relativity implies an expanding Universe from a singularity, the so-called Big Bang. The rate of expansion is the Hubble constant. There are two major ways of measuring the expansion of the Universe: through the cosmic distance ladder and through looking at the signals originated from the beginning of the Universe. These two methods give quite different results for the Hubble constant. Hence, the Universe doesn’t expand. The solution to this problem is the theory of gravitation in flat space-time where space isn’t expanding. All the results of gravitation for weak fields of this theory agree with those of General Relativity to measurable accuracy whereas at the beginning of the Universe the results of both theories are quite different, i.e. no singularity by gravitation in flat space-time and non-expanding universe, and a Big Bang (singularity) by General Relativity.

文摘This paper is concerned with the following nonlinear Steklov problemΔu=0 in D,∂vu=λf(u)on∂D,where D is the unit disk in the plane,∂v denotes the unit outward normal derivative.For each k∈N,under some natural conditions on f,using the Crandall-Rabinowitz bifurcation theorem,we obtain a bifurcation curve emanating from(k,0).Furthermore,we also analyze the local structure of bifurcation curves and stability of solutions on them.Specifically,our results indicate the bifurcation is critical for each k and is subcritical(supercritical)if f'''(0)>0(f'''(0)<0).

文摘In educational settings,instructors often lead students through hands-on software projects,sometimes engaging two different schools or departments.How can such collaborations be made more efficient,and how can students truly experience the importance of teamwork and the impact of organizational structure on project complexity?To answer these questions,we introduce the requirement-driven organization structure(R-DOS)approach,which tightly couples software requirements with the actual development process.By extending problem-frames modeling and focusing on requirements,R-DOS allows educators and students to(1)diagnose structural flaws early,(2)prescribe role-level and communication fixes,and(3)observe-in real time-how poor structure can derail a project while good structure accelerates learning and delivery.
文摘Generalised reduced masses with a set of equations governing the three relative motions between two of 3-bodies in their gravitational field are established,of which the dynamic characteristics of 3-body dynamics,fundamental bases of this paper,are revealed.Based on these findings,an equivalent system is developed,which is a 2-body system with its total mass,constant angular momentum,kinetic and potential energies same as the total ones of three relative motions,so that it can be solved using the well-known theory of the 2-body system.From the solution of an equivalent system with the revealed characteristics of three relative motions,the general theoretical solutions of the 3-body system are obtained in the curve-integration forms along the orbits in the imaged radial motion space.The possible periodical orbits with generalised Kepler’s law are presented.Following the description and mathematical demonstrations of the proposed methods,the examples including Euler’s/Lagrange’s problems,and a reported numerical one are solved to validate the proposed methods.The methods derived from the 3-body system are extended to N-body problems.

文摘Background:The growing parenting stress among Chinese mothers in recent years raises concerns about its impact on adolescent internalizing problems.The purpose of this study was to examine the curvilinear relationship between maternal parenting stress and internalizing problems in adolescents,and further explore the moderating effects of family socioeconomic status(SES)and adolescent gender.Methods:Data were collected from 405 mothers and adolescents(203 boys,Meanage=12.23)across five cities(Beijing,Hebei,Shanxi,Shenzhen,and Shandong)in China,who completed self-report measures of maternal parenting stress and internalizing problems.Descriptive statistics and multiple regression analyses were conducted using SPSS 27.0.Results:Multiple regression analyses indicated that the association between maternal parenting stress2 and adolescents’internalizing problems was moderated by the interaction between gender and SES(b=−0.03,p<0.01).Specifically,a significant U-shaped relationship was observed among high-SES boys(b=0.12,t=3.89,p<0.001),with internalizing problems peaking at both low and high levels of maternal parenting stress,whereas the moderating effect of SES was not significant among girls.Conclusion:The study highlights that moderate maternal parenting stress is associated with lower internalizing problems among adolescents,particularly among high-SES boys,indicating that interventions should consider the optimal balance of parental stress and account for family socioeconomic and adolescent gender differences.
文摘Sensitivity of observational data is important in the study of Glacial Isostatic Adjustment(GIA).However,depending on whether sensitivity is used for the Inverse Problem or the Forward Problem,the final formulation and display of the sensitivity kernel will be different.Unfortunately,in the past,both perspectives give the same name to their quantity computed/displayed,and that has caused some confusion.To distinguish between the two,their perspective should be added to the names.This paper focuses only on the perspective of the Forward Problem where the input parameters are known.The Perturbation method has been successfully used in the computation of the sensitivity kernels of observations on 1D and 3D viscosity variations from the Forward perspective.One aim of this paper is to review and clarify the physics of the Perturbation method and bring out some important aspects of this method that have been misunderstood or neglected.Another aim is to present sensitivity kernels from the Perturbation method using 3D(both radially and laterally heterogeneous)Earth models with realistic ice history.These new results are now suitable for future comparison with those from new methods using the Forward perspective.Finally,the sensitivity computations for realistic ice histories on a 3D Earth is reviewed and used to search for optimal locations of new GIA observations.

文摘Cubic-shaped magnetic particles subjected to a dimensionless uniaxial anisotropy(Q=0.1)aligned with one of the crystallographic axes provide an ideal system for investigating magnetic equilibrium states.In this system,three fundamental magnetization configurations are identified:(i)the flower state,(ii)the twisted flower state,and(iii)the vortex state.This problem corresponds to standard problem No.3 proposed by the NIST Micromagnetics Modeling Group,widely adopted as a benchmark for validating computational micromagnetics methods.In this work,we approach the problem using a computational method based on direct dipolar interactions,in contrast to conventional techniques that typically compute the demagnetizing field via finite difference-based fast Fourier transform(FFT)methods,tensor grid approaches,or finite element formulations.Our results are compared with established literature data,focusing on the dimensionless parameterλ=L/l_(ex),where L is the cube edge length and l_(ex)is the exchange length of the material.To analyze equilibrium state transitions,we systematically varied the size L as a function of the simulation cell number N and intercellular spacing a,determining the criticalλvalue associated with configuration changes.Our simulations reveal that the transition between the twisted flower and vortex states occurs atλ≈8.45,consistent with values reported in the literature,validating our code(Grupo de Física da Matéeria Condensada-UFJF),and shows that this standard problem can be resolved using only interaction dipolar of a direct way without the need for sophisticated additional calculations.
文摘The proliferation of carrier aircraft and the integration of unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs)on aircraft carriers present new challenges to the automation of launch and recovery operations.This paper investigates a collaborative scheduling problem inherent to the operational processes of carrier aircraft,where launch and recovery tasks are conducted concurrently on the flight deck.The objective is to minimize the cumulative weighted waiting time in the air for recovering aircraft and the cumulative weighted delay time for launching aircraft.To tackle this challenge,a multiple population self-adaptive differential evolution(MPSADE)algorithm is proposed.This method features a self-adaptive parameter updating mechanism that is contingent upon population diversity,an asynchronous updating scheme,an individual migration operator,and a global crossover mechanism.Additionally,comprehensive experiments are conducted to validate the effectiveness of the proposed model and algorithm.Ultimately,a comparative analysis with existing operation modes confirms the enhanced efficiency of the collaborative operation mode.
