A Formulation of the Porous Medium Equation with Time-Dependent Porosity: A Priori Estimates and Regularity Results

We consider a generalized form of the porous medium equation where the porosity ϕis a function of time t: ϕ=ϕ(x,t): ∂(ϕS)∂t−∇⋅(k(S)∇S)=Q(S).In many works, the porosity ϕis either assumed to be independent of (or to depend very little of) the time variable t. In this work, we want to study the case where it does depend on t(and xas well). For this purpose, we make a change of unknown function V=ϕSin order to obtain a saturation-like (advection-diffusion) equation. A priori estimates and regularity results are established for the new equation based in part on what is known from the saturation equation, when ϕis independent of the time t. These results are then extended to the full saturation equation with time-dependent porosity ϕ=ϕ(x,t). In this analysis, we make explicitly the dependence of the various constants in the estimates on the porosity ϕby the introduced transport vector w, through the change of unknown function. Also we do not assume zero-flux boundary, but we carry the analysis for the case Q≡0.

SHARP MORREY REGULARITY THEORY FOR A FOURTH ORDER GEOMETRICAL EQUATION

This paper is a continuation of recent work by Guo-Xiang-Zheng[10].We deduce the sharp Morrey regularity theory for weak solutions to the fourth order nonhomogeneous Lamm-Rivière equation △^{2}u=△(V▽u)+div(w▽u)+(▽ω+F)·▽u+f in B^(4),under the smallest regularity assumptions of V,ω,ω,F,where f belongs to some Morrey spaces.This work was motivated by many geometrical problems such as the flow of biharmonic mappings.Our results deepens the Lp type regularity theory of[10],and generalizes the work of Du,Kang and Wang[4]on a second order problem to our fourth order problems.

Ground fissure development regularity and formation mechanism of shallow buried coal seam mining with Karst landform in Jiaozi coal mine: a case study

A comprehensive study was undertaken at Jiaozi coal mine to investigate the development regularity of ground fissures in shallow buried coal seam mining with Karst landform,shedding light on the development type,geographical distribution,dynamic development process,and failure mechanism of these ground fissures by employing field monitoring,numerical simulation,and theoretical analysis.The findings demonstrate that ground fissure development has an obvious feature of subregion,and its geographical distribution is significantly affected by topography.Tensile type,open type,and stepped type are three different categories of ground fissure.Ground fissures emerge dynamically as the panel advances,and they typically develop with a distance of less than periodic weighting step distance in advance of panel advancing position.Ground fissures present the dynamic development feature,temporary fissure has the ability of self-healing.The dynamic development process of ground fissure with closed-distance coal seam repeated mining is expounded,and the development scale is a dynamic development stage of“closure→expansion→stabilized”on the basis of the original development scale.From the perspective of topsoil deformation,the computation model considering two points movement vectors towards two directions of the gob and the ground surface is established,the development criterion considering the critical deformation value of topsoil is obtained.The mechanical model of hinged structure of inclined body is proposed to clarify the ground fissure development,and the interaction between slope activity and ground fissure development is expounded.These research results fulfill the gap of ground fissures about development regularity and formation mechanism,and can contribute to ground fissure prevention and treatment with Karst landform.

Regularity classification and corresponding analysis method requirements of horizontally curved bridges with unequal pier heights

The seismic behavior of horizontally curved bridges,particularly with unequal height piers,is more complicated than that of straight bridges due to their geometric properties.In this study,the seismic responses of several horizontally curved single-column-bent viaducts with various degrees of curvature and different pier heights have been investigated,employing three different analysis approaches:namely,modal pushover analysis,uniform load method,and nonlinear time history analysis.Considering the investigated bridge configurations and utilizing the most common regularity indices,the results indicate that viaducts with 45-degree and 90-degree deck subtended angles can be categorized as regular and moderately irregular,respectively,while the bridges with 180-degree deck subtended angle are found to be highly irregular.Furthermore,the viaducts whose pier heights are asymmetric may be considered as irregular for almost all ranges of the deck subtended angles.The effects of higher transverse and longitudinal modes are discussed and the minimum analysis requirements are identified to assess the seismic response of such bridge configurations for design purposes.Although the Regularity Indices used here are useful tools to distinguish between regular and irregular bridges,further studies are needed to improve their reliability.

GLOBAL REGULARITY OF 2D INCOMPRESSIBLE MAGNETO-MICROPOLAR FLUID EQUATIONS WITH PARTIAL VISCOSITY

This paper studies the global regularity of 2D incompressible anisotropic magnetomicropolar fluid equations with partial viscosity. Ma [22](Ma L. Nonlinear Anal: Real World Appl, 2018, 40: 95–129) examined the global regularity of the 2D incompressible magnetomicropolar fluid system for 21 anisotropic partial viscosity cases. He proved the global existence of a classical solution for some cases and established the conditional global regularity for some other cases. In this paper, we also investigate the global regularity of 12 cases in [22]and some other new partial viscosity cases. The global regularity is established by providing new regular conditions. Our work improves some results in [22] in this sense of weaker regular criteria.

THE EXISTENCE OF WEAK SOLUTIONS AND PROPAGATION REGULARITY FOR A GENERALIZED KDV SYSTEM

This paper examines the existence of weak solutions to a class of the high-order Korteweg-de Vries(KdV)system in Rn.We first prove,by the Leray-Schauder principle and the vanishing viscosity method,that any initial data N-dimensional vector value function u0(x)in Sobolev space H^(s)(R^(n))(s≥1)leads to a global weak solution.Second,we investigate some special regularity properties of solutions to the initial value problem associated with the KdV type system in R^(2)and R^(3).

THEORETICAL RESULTS ON THE EXISTENCE,REGULARITY AND ASYMPTOTIC STABILITY OF ENHANCED PULLBACK ATTRACTORS:APPLICATIONS TO 3D PRIMITIVE EQUATIONS

Several new concepts of enhanced pullback attractors for nonautonomous dynamical systems are introduced here by uniformly enhancing the compactness and attraction of the usual pullback attractors over an infinite forward time-interval under strong and weak topologies.Then we provide some theoretical results for the existence,regularity and asymptotic stability of these enhanced pullback attractors under general theoretical frameworks which can be applied to a large class of PDEs.The existence of these enhanced attractors is harder to obtain than the backward case[33],since it is difficult to uniformly control the long-time pullback behavior of the systems over the forward time-interval.As applications of our theoretical results,we consider the famous 3D primitive equations modelling the large-scale ocean and atmosphere dynamics,and prove the existence,regularity and asymptotic stability of the enhanced pullback attractors in V×V and H^(2)×H^(2) for the time-dependent forces which satisfy some weak conditions.

THE REGULARITY AND UNIQUENESS OF A GLOBAL SOLUTION TO THE ISENTROPIC NAVIER-STOKES EQUATION WITH ROUGH INITIAL DATA

A global weak solution to the isentropic Navier-Stokes equation with initial data around a constant state in the L^(1)∩BV class was constructed in[1].In the current paper,we will continue to study the uniqueness and regularity of the constructed solution.The key ingredients are the Holder continuity estimates of the heat kernel in both spatial and time variables.With these finer estimates,we obtain higher order regularity of the constructed solution to Navier-Stokes equation,so that all of the derivatives in the equation of conservative form are in the strong sense.Moreover,this regularity also allows us to identify a function space such that the stability of the solutions can be established there,which eventually implies the uniqueness.

Lipschitz Regularity of Viscosity Solutions to the Infinity Laplace Equation

In this paper, we study the viscosity solutions of the Neumann problem in a bounded C2 domain Ω, where ΔN∞ is called the normalized infinity Laplacian. The normalized infinity Laplacian was first studied by Peres, Shramm, Sheffield and Wilson from the point of randomized theory named tug-of-war, which has wide applications in optimal mass transportation, financial option price problems, digital image processing, physical engineering, etc. We give the Lipschitz regularity of the viscosity solutions of the Neumann problem. The method we adopt is to choose suitable auxiliary functions as barrier functions and combine the perturbation method and viscosity solutions theory. .

Convergent Data-Driven Regularizations for CT Reconstruction

The reconstruction of images from their corresponding noisy Radon transform is a typical example of an ill-posed linear inverse problem as arising in the application of computerized tomography(CT).As the(naive)solution does not depend on the measured data continuously,regularization is needed to reestablish a continuous dependence.In this work,we investigate simple,but yet still provably convergent approaches to learning linear regularization methods from data.More specifically,we analyze two approaches:one generic linear regularization that learns how to manipulate the singular values of the linear operator in an extension of our previous work,and one tailored approach in the Fourier domain that is specific to CT-reconstruction.We prove that such approaches become convergent regularization methods as well as the fact that the reconstructions they provide are typically much smoother than the training data they were trained on.Finally,we compare the spectral as well as the Fourier-based approaches for CT-reconstruction numerically,discuss their advantages and disadvantages and investigate the effect of discretization errors at differentresolutions.

Impact of Regular Blood Donation on Body Iron Stores at Saudi Blood Donors

Introduction: One of the most frequent observations in long-term blood donation is chronic iron deficiency, which can develop into anaemia. The majority of blood screening methods employed by blood banks do not incorporate iron-status markers, which may result in potential subclinical iron deficiency. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of repeated blood donation on the levels of iron in the body and to guide blood donors in preventing the depletion of iron stores. Methods: Regular blood donors were categorised into distinct groups according to the number of donations they gave, and then the correlation between these groups and their bodies’ iron levels was examined. Different parameters were employed to identify iron deficiency and iron depletion in blood donors: serum ferritin, mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular haemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration (MCHC), total iron-binding capacity (TIBC), and serum iron. Results: The study included 300 individuals who regularly and willingly donated blood. There were no iron insufficiency cases among those donating blood for the first time (Group I). However, 15.5% of individuals who had donated once before (Group II) had ferritin levels of 15 - 30 μg/dl (ng/ml), indicating reduced iron stores. The rate increased to 18% (37 out of 206 individuals) among regular blood donors (Groups III, IV, and V). Iron deficiency (depletion) prevalence among regular blood donors in Groups III, IV, and V was 5.9% (12 out of 206) and 50.4% (100 out of 206). Donors who had donated blood most frequently had the lowest levels of haematological markers MCH, MCHC, and TIBC. Provide the p-values representing the differences between the means of MCV, MCH, iron, TIBC, and ferritin levels when comparing donor groups with the control group (Group I) based on the frequency of donations. Indicate statistically significant differences where the p-value is less than 0.0125. This significance level is adjusted based on the Bonferroni method, considering multiple independent tests. The result shows that the Iron parameter for the comparison between Group I and Group III and Group I and Group IV suggests a statistically significant difference in iron levels between these donor groups. Conclusion: The findings of this study show that a higher times of donations lads to a higher occurrence of depleted iron stores and subsequent erythropoiesis with iron deficiency by one donor from every three healthy donors. The iron and ferritin concentrations were within the normal range in group one (Control group) and reduced in the other four groups (G-2 to G-5). However, the level of haemoglobin remained within an acceptable range for blood donation. This outcome suggests that it may be necessary to reassess the criteria for accepting blood donors. The average serum ferritin levels were examined in all five groups (G-1 to G-5), both for males and females, and significant variations were seen among the groups under study. This study found that 35% of the individuals who regularly donate blood have iron-deficient anaemia (sideropenia). This suggests that it would be beneficial to test for serum ferritin at an earlier stage, ideally after three donations.

Impact Force Localization and Reconstruction via ADMM-based Sparse Regularization Method

In practice,simultaneous impact localization and time history reconstruction can hardly be achieved,due to the illposed and under-determined problems induced by the constrained and harsh measuring conditions.Although l_(1) regularization can be used to obtain sparse solutions,it tends to underestimate solution amplitudes as a biased estimator.To address this issue,a novel impact force identification method with l_(p) regularization is proposed in this paper,using the alternating direction method of multipliers(ADMM).By decomposing the complex primal problem into sub-problems solvable in parallel via proximal operators,ADMM can address the challenge effectively.To mitigate the sensitivity to regularization parameters,an adaptive regularization parameter is derived based on the K-sparsity strategy.Then,an ADMM-based sparse regularization method is developed,which is capable of handling l_(p) regularization with arbitrary p values using adaptively-updated parameters.The effectiveness and performance of the proposed method are validated on an aircraft skin-like composite structure.Additionally,an investigation into the optimal p value for achieving high-accuracy solutions via l_(p) regularization is conducted.It turns out that l_(0.6)regularization consistently yields sparser and more accurate solutions for impact force identification compared to the classic l_(1) regularization method.The impact force identification method proposed in this paper can simultaneously reconstruct impact time history with high accuracy and accurately localize the impact using an under-determined sensor configuration.
