The functions of bounded φ-variation are development and generalization of bounded variation functions in the usual sense.Henstock-Kurzweil integral is a very useful tool for some discontinuous systems. In this paper, by using Henstock-Kurzweil integral, we establish theorems of continuous dependence of bounded D-variation solutions on parameter for a class of discontinuous systems on the base of D-function. These results are essential generalizations of continuous dependence of bounded variation solutions on parameter for the systems.

L^P SOLUTION OF GENERAL MEAN-FIELD BSDES WITH CONTINUOUS COEFFICIENTS

In this paper we consider one dimensional mean-field backward stochastic differential equations(BSDEs)under weak assumptions on the coefficient.Unlike[3],the generator of our mean-field BSDEs depends not only on the solution(Y,Z)but also on the law PY of Y.The first part of the paper is devoted to the existence and uniqueness of solutions in Lp,1<p≤2,where the monotonicity conditions are satisfied.Next,we show that if the generator/is uniformly continuous in(μ,y,z),uniformly with respect to(t,ω) and if the terminal valueξbelongs to Lp(Ω,F,P)with 1<p≤2,the mean-field BSDE has a unique Lp solution.

CONTINUOUS THERMODYNAMICS FOR POLYMER SOLUTIONS II . LATTICE FLUID MODEL

Using lattice-fluid model, a continuous thermodynamic framework is presented for phase-equilibrium calculations for binary solutions with a polydisperse polymer solute. A two-step process is designed to form a real polymer solution containing a solvent and a polydisperse polymer solute occupying a volume at fixed temperature and pressure. In the first step, close-packed pure components including solvent and polymers with different molar masses or different chain lengths are mixed to form a closed-packed polymer solution. In the second step, the close-packed mixture, considered to be a pseudo-pure substance is mixed with holes to form a real polymer solution with a volume dependent on temperature and pressure. Revised Freed's model developed previously is adopted for both steps. Besides pure-component parameters, a binary size parameter cr and a binary energy parameter e12 are used. They are all temperature dependent. The discrete-multicomponent approach is adopted to derive expressions for chemical potentials, spinodals and critical points. The continuous distribution function is then used in calculations of moments occurring in those expressions. Computation procedures are established for cloud-point-curve, shadow-curve, spinodal and critical-point calculations using standard distribution or arbitrary distribution on molar mass or on chain length. Illustrative examples are also presented.

HLDER CONTINUOUS SOLUTIONS OF BOUSSINESQ EQUATIONS

We show the existence of dissipative Hhlder continuous solutions of the Boussi- nesq equations. More precise, for anyβ∈ （0, 1/5）, a time interval [0, T] and any given smooth energy profile e ： [0, T] → （0, ∞）, there exist a weak solution （v, θ） of the 3d Boussinesq equations such that （v, 8） ∈ Cβ（T3 × [0, T]） with e（t） = ∫T3 ｜v（x, t）｜2dx for all t ∈ [0, T]. This extend the result of [2] about Onsager＇s conjecture into Boussinesq equation and improve our previous result in [30].

A New One-Twelfth Step Continuous Block Method for the Solution of Modeled Problems of Ordinary Differential Equations

In this paper, we developed a new continuous block method by the method of interpolation and collocation to derive new scheme. We adopted the use of power series as a basis function for approximate solution. We evaluated at off grid points to get a continuous hybrid multistep method. The continuous hybrid multistep method is solved for the independent solution to yield a continuous block method which is evaluated at selected points to yield a discrete block method. The basic properties of the block method were investigated and found to be consistent, zero stable and convergent. The results were found to compete favorably with the existing methods in terms of accuracy and error bound. In particular, the scheme was found to have a large region of absolute stability. The new method was tested on real life problem namely: Dynamic model.

EXISTENCE AND NONEXISTENCE OF GLOBAL CONTINUOUS SOLUTIONS TO RIEMANN PROBLEM FOR DAMPED P-SYSTEM

In this paper, we extend the result in [16] to general p(v). We prove that, under condition (M), when P greater-than-or-equal-to 3/2, where P=pp triple overdot/p2, there exists a unique global continuous solution to the Riemann problem (E), (R), whose structure is similar to the local solution. When 1 < P* less-than-or-equal-to P* < 5/4, or P* = P* = 5/4, or 5 < P* less-than-or-equal-to P* < 3/2 where P*-inf/v P and P* = sup/v P for all v under consideration, if at least one of the initial centered rarefaction waves is sufficiently strong, then the solution must be breakdown in a finite time.

Diverse soliton solutions and dynamical analysis of the discrete coupled mKdV equation with 4×4 Lax pair

Under consideration in this study is the discrete coupled modified Korteweg-de Vries(mKdV)equation with 4×4 Lax pair.Firstly,through using continuous limit technique,this discrete equation can be mapped to the coupled KdV and mKdV equations,which may depict the development of shallow water waves,the optical soliton propagation in cubic nonlinear media and the Alfven wave in a cold collision-free plasma.Secondly,the discrete generalized(r,N-r)-fold Darboux transformation is constructed and extended to solve this discrete coupled equation with the fourth-order linear spectral problem,from which diverse exact solutions including usual multi-soliton and semi-rational soliton solutions on the vanishing background,higher-order rational soliton and mixed hyperbolic-rational soliton solutions on the non-vanishing background are derived,and the limit states of some soliton and rational soliton solutions are analyzed by the asymptotic analysis technique.Finally,the numerical simulations are used to explore the dynamical behaviors of some exact soliton solutions.These results may be helpful for understanding some physical phenomena in fields of shallow water wave,optics,and plasma physics.

Solute redistribution and macrosegregation in continuous casting slab of carbon steel during solidification process

Based on the modified Scheil model of solute redistribution,the effects of solidification rate,molten steel flow,and alloy composition on solute macrosegregation during the solidification of carbon steel continuous casting billet are calculated and analyzed. The formation mechanism of "white band "segregation under the condition of electromagnetic stirring is also involved,and some practical countermeasures to restrain the central segregation are suggested. The results show that the modified Scheil model can be applied to predict and analyze the macrosegregation of casting slab effectively. The ratio vx/R of the flow velocity of molten steel to solidification rate has decisive formations of segregation such as linear,V,and "white band"types. It is an effective way to select sufficient terminal cooling and reasonable electromagnetic stirring in order to decrease macrosegregation in the slab. The concept of the characteristic distance of solute enrichment layer can drastically simplify the calculation of solute redistribution at the solid/liquid interface of various elements in carbon steel.
