The ALE kinemat ical description is introduced to move the computational mesh independently of f luid motion, and the container fixed noninertial coordinate system is employed to establish the governing equations so that the mesh is needed to be updated in this coordinate system only. This leads to a very simple mesh moving algorithm which makes it easy to trace the motion of the moving boundaries and the free su rface without producing undesirable distortion of the computational mesh. The fi nite element method and finite difference method are used spacewise and timewise , respectively. A numerical example involving either forced horizontal oscillati on or forced pitching oscillation of the fluid filled container is presented to illustrate the effectiveness and the robustness of the method. In additi on, this work can be extended for the fluid structure interaction problems.展开更多

Major findings are as follows: 1) Climatic factors were ranked in the order of importance to annual runoff as average annual temperature, average temperature in autumn, average temperature in winter, annual precipitation, precipitation in flood season, average temperature in summer, and average temperature in spring. The average annual temperature and annual precipi- tation were selected as the two representative factors that impact the annual runoff. 2) From the 32-year time scale, the annual runoff and the average annual temperature presented a significantly rising trend, whereas the annual precipita- tion showed little increase over the period of 1957-2002. By changing the time scale from 32-year to 4-year, we ob- served nonlinear trends with increasingly obvious oscillations for annual runoff, average annual temperature, and annual precipitation. 3) The changes of the runoff and the regional climate are closely related, indicating that the runoff change is the result of the regional climate changes. With time scales ranging from 32-year, 16-year, 8-year and to 4-year, there are highly significant linear correlations between the annual runoff and the average annual temperature and the annual precipitation.展开更多

In order to study the rheological deformation of backfill material and its long-term stability, given the visco-elastoplastic properties of this material, we introduced a softening and a hardening function for a new nonlinear the- ological model with time-varying parameters. Based on this, we presented the instability condition of this model by using the principle of minimum potential energy. Combined with engineering practice, we cal- culated the urlstable time period of backfill material. The results show that the time of instability of the backfill material relate to the initial parameters of the material, "the coefficients decided by temperature and the ratio of the plastic zone of the backfill material. Based on the results of our analysis from the point of view of energy, we can quickly obtain the time of instability of this model from our graphical analysis. The time of instability of the backfill material obtained from our investigation coincides with an actual project.展开更多

Two long-term trends and the quasi-70-year oscillation were detected in the global temperature series tbr the last 140 years and the NH millennium series. One important feature was emphasized that temperature decreases slowly but it increases rapidly based on the analysis of different series. Benefits can be obtained of climate change from understanding various long-term trends and oscillations. Millennial temperature proxies from the natural climate system and time series of nonlinear model system are used in understanding the natural climate change and recognizing potential benefits by using the method of wavelet transform analysis. The results from numerical modeling show that major oscillations contained in numerical solutions on the interdecadal timescale are consistent with that of natural proxies. It seems that these oscillations in the climate change are not directly linked with the solar radiation as an external tbrcing. This investigation may conclude that the climate variability at the interdecadal timescale strongly depends on the internal nonlinear effects in the climate system.展开更多

Taking into account the combined action of the relativistic particle mass increase and the relativistic light ponderomotive force, using the perturbation method, and allowing different types solution, we discuss the analytical solution of (3+1)-dimensional KP-I equation, and give the approximate solutions of vector potential of the intense laser pulse in e-p plasma. Our results may be significantly useful in understanding the nonlinear wave propagation and interaction of intense laser beams in an e-p plasma.展开更多

With this method we are able to find the ground state wave function and energy by evolving the trial initial wave function in real and imaginary time spaces, respectively. In real time space, the results are in agreement with [Phys. Rev. A 51 (1995) 4704], but the trial wave function is restricted in a very small range. On the contrary, in imaginary time space, the trial wave function can be chosen widely, moreover, the results are stable.展开更多

For the case of square-well (SW)potential, it is shown that the structure factor of HCAY potential based on a recently proposedsemi-analytical expression for the radial distribution function can describe the structure factor ofSW potential with reduced well width λ ≤ 2 only if the reduced contact potential βε_(sw) ≤0.25, while the analytical expression for the structure factor of AH potential under Percus-Yevick(PY) approximation completely fails for the case of λ 】 1.2. For the case of AO depletionpotential, the domain of validity of both HCAY potential and AH potential is complementary. With theabove analysis and considering the solid-liquid transition of the AH potential with an adhesiveparameter τ below 1.31 cannot be predicted by modified weighted density approximation, the roleplayed by the HCAY potential about the mapping manipulation should not be ignored.展开更多

We assume that the potential of the equation includes a parameter A and can be negative in some domain. Moreover, the potential behaves like potential well when the parameter A is large. Using variational methods combining Nehari methods, we prove that the equation has a least energy solution which, as the parameter A becomes large, localized near the bottom of the potential well. Our result is an extension of the corresponding result for the SchrSdinger equation which involves critical growth but does not involve electromagnetic fields.展开更多
