Molecular dynamic simulation was employed to predict the melting points Tm of TNAD/HMX, TNAD/RDX, TNAD/DINA, and TNAD/DNP systems (tans-1,4,5,8- tetranitro-1,4,5,8-tetraazadacalin (TNAD), dinitropiperazine (DNP),...Molecular dynamic simulation was employed to predict the melting points Tm of TNAD/HMX, TNAD/RDX, TNAD/DINA, and TNAD/DNP systems (tans-1,4,5,8- tetranitro-1,4,5,8-tetraazadacalin (TNAD), dinitropiperazine (DNP), cyclotetramethylenetetranitroamine (HMX), cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine (RDX), and N-nitrodihydroxyethylaminedinitrate (DINA)). Tm was determined from the inflexion point on the curve of mean specific volume vs. temperature. The result shows that the Tm values of TNAD/HMX, TNAD/RDX, and TNAD/DINA systems are 500, 536, and 488 K, respectively. The TNAD/DNP system has no obvious Tm value, which shows the system is insoluble. Using Tm, the solubility of the four systems was analyzed. The radial distribution functions of the four systems were analyzed and the main intermolecular forces between TNAD and other energetic components are short-range interactions. The better the solubility is, the stronger the intermoleenlar interaction is. In addition, the force field energy at different temperature was also analyzed to predict Tm of the four systems.展开更多

The wide interest is primarily due to its appealing characteristics, such as the robust performances in different types of selective fading channels and a great deal of potential for secure communications. According to the literatures, the HC signal and SC or MC signal probability distributions are different. In particular, some benefits of this HC scheme are brought by the quasi-Gaussian distribution of WFRFT signals. However, until now researchers have only presented statistic properties through computer simulations, and the accurate expressions of signals are not derived yet. In this paper, we derive the accu- rate and rigorously established closed-form expressions of Probability Density Function (PDF) of WFRFT signal real and imaginary parts with a large number of QPSK subcarriers, and this PDF can describe the behavior of data modulated by WFRFT, avoiding the complex computation for extensive computer simulations. Furthermore, the components of PDF expression are described and analyzed, and it is revealed that the tendency of signal quasi-Gaussian changes with the increasing of the parameter a (a in (0,1]). To validate the analytical results, extensive simulations have been conducted, showing a very good match between the analytical results and the real situations. The contribution of this paper may be useful to deduce the closed form expressions of Bit Error Ratio (BER), the Complementary Cumulative Distribution Function (CCDF) of Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR), and other analytical studies which adopt the PDF.展开更多

It was found that addition of CO2 in the liquid phase can greatly decrease the viscosity of ionic liquids (ILs) and increase their diffusion coefficient obviously. Furthermore, the volume expansion of ionic liquids was found to increase with the increase of the mole fraction of CO2 in the liquid phase but less than 35% for the two simulated systems, which had a significant difference with CO2 expanded organic solvents. The main reason was that there were some void spaces inter and intra the molecules of ionic liquids. Finally, site to site radial distribution functions and corresponding number integrals were investigated and it was found that the change of microstructures of ILs bv addition CO2 had a great influence on the orooerties of ILs.展开更多

We find that the probability distribution of the free end in z direction P(Rz) and the density profile p(z) can be scaled approximately by a factor β to be a length independent function for both random walking (RW) and self-avoiding walking (SAW) tail-like chains, where the factor β is related to the mean square end-to-end distance 〈RE〉. The scaled P(Rz) of the SAW chain roughly overlaps that of the RW chain, but the scaled p(z) of the SAW chain locates at smaller βz than that of the RW chain.展开更多

The interferers are independent non-identically distributed K-μfading. An accurate analytical-form expression for the cumulative distribution function of the received signal power to interference and noise ratio is derived. Various numerical results are compared with Monte Carlo simulation results in order to corroborate the accuracy of the proposed expressions. Our results show that increasing the value of kappa of main links will decrease the outage probability of relay systems. Furthermore, the system performance degrades with the number of interferences.展开更多

In order to design ...Ionic liquids (ILs) have been widely used in separation, catalysis, electrochemistry, etc., and one of the most outstanding characteristics is that ILs can be tailored and tuned for specific tasks. In order to design and make better use of ionic liquids, the structures and properties relationship is indispensable. Both molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations have been proved useful to understand the behavior of molecules at the microscale and the properties of the system. However, the quality of such simulations depends on force field parameters describing the interactions between atoms. All-atom (AA) or the united-atom (UA) force fields will be chosen because of the demand for more exact results or the lower computational cost, respectively. In order to make a systematic comparison of the two force fields, molecular simulations for four kinds of acyclic guanidinium-based ionic liquids (cations: (R2N)2C=N+<, anion: nitric or perchloric acid) were performed based on the AA and the UA force fields in this work. AA force field parameters were derived from our previous work (Fluid Phase Equilib., 2008, 272: 1-7), and the UA parameters were proposed in this work. Molecular dynamics simulation results for the AA and UA force fields were compared. Simulation densities are very similar to each other. Center of mass radial distribution functions (RDFs), site to site RDFs and spatial distribution functions (SDFs) were also investigated to depict the microscopic structures of the ILs.展开更多
