Geometric Structures of Stable Time-Variant State Feedback Systems

A new technique for considering the stabilizing time-variant state feedback gains is proposed from the viewpoint of information geometry. First, parametrization of the set of all stabilizing time-variant state feedback gains is given. Moreover, a diffeomorphic structure between the set of stabilizing time-variant state feedback gains and the Cartesian product of positive definite matrix and skew symmetric matrix satisfying certain algebraic conditions is constructed. Furthermore, an immersion and some results about the eigenvalue locations of stable state feedback systems are derived.

GEOMETRIC STRUCTURE OF ETHYLENOXIDE ADSORBED ON Cu(110) SURFACE

The binding energies of ethylene oxide (Et-O) adsorbed on Cu(110) surface for different adsorption sites and orientations are calculated with an atom superposition and electron delocalization molecular orbital (ASED-MO) using cluster models. It shows that the top site of Cu(110) surface is preferable for Et-O adsorption and the orientation of C-C bond of Et-O is parallel to the [110] direction of the substratc. The distance of an oxygen of Et-O to the Cu atom is approximately 1.5817(?). It is different from the supposition of C. Benndorf et al., in which the oxygen was proposed on the short bridge site with C-C bond orientating to [110] direction of Cu(110)

Geometric Structure and Tectonic Activities of Wanquan Fault,Hebei Province

Based on detailed investigations and prospecting,this paper describes the geometrical characteristics and tectonic activities of Wanquan fault in northwest of Beijing. This fault strikes mainly northeast or northeast to north,dipping southeast,and extends over a length of 15km. It is a major geological and geomorphological margin,controlling the neotectonic movement in this region. On the southeast side of Wanquan fault are the Late Quaternary unconsolidated deposits,forming a basin or deposition; but on the other side is Mesozoic volcano debris,forming lower-mountains and hills. Wanquan fault is a mid- to-high-angle normal fault dipping southeast. This fault was more active in the Quaternary. Since the middle-late part of the alate Pleistocene,the average rate with vertical slip of a single fault is over 0. 03 ～ 0. 3mm /a,but the fault has multiple slipping surfaces,and a total rate with vertical slip will be estimated.

Resolving the geometric structure of trastuzumab by mobility capillary electrophoresis and native mass spectrometry

Available online Immunoglobulins G(IgGs)are Y-shaped globular proteins,however,their high flexibility and heterogeneity pose great challenges to their structure and conformation determinations.Geometric structure of IgG closely correlates to its biofunctions,such as the antibody escape of human immunodeficiency virus(HIV)could attribute to the distance mismatch between the ends of two Fab arms(antigen-binding sites)and envelope glycoprotein spikes on virion surface.Herein,we report the first use of mobility capillary electrophoresis(MCE)and native mass spectrometry(nMS)to resolve the internal geometric structure and conformation of an IgG(trastuzumab)in solution phase.After proteolysis,the ellipsoid dimensions of IgG and its subunits were measured by MCE-nMS experiments.IgG was then reconstructed,in which the sizes and relative positions of these three subunits in three-dimensional space were characterized.It was found that the two Fab arms have an angle of~102.1°and a distance of~11.0 nm between the two antigen-binding sites under native condition,and the Fc arm was tilted~16.0°towards one of the Fab arms.Fc was not on the plane of Fab-Fab,but has an angle of no larger than 103.1°.Under acidic environment(pH 3.0),each subunit of the IgG would unfold into larger dimensions,and the angles between these subunits also change.With great potential for tumor imaging and therapy,the structure of F(ab')_(2)fragments was also measured and validated by molecular dynamic simulation.It was found that the electrostatic force among these three subunits and steric hindrance stemming from Fc help maintaining the angle between two Fab arms.

Inheritance of the exciton geometric structure from Bloch electrons in two-dimensional layered semiconductors

We theoretically studied the exciton geometric structure in layered semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides.Based on a three-orbital tight-binding model for Bloch electrons which incorporates their geometric structures,an effective exciton Hamiltonian is constructed and solved perturbatively to reveal the relation between the exciton and its electron/hole constituent.We show that the electron−hole Coulomb interaction gives rise to a non-trivial inheritance of the exciton geometric structure from Bloch electrons,which manifests as a valley-dependent center-of-mass anomalous Hall velocity of the exciton when two external fields are applied on the electron and hole constituents,respectively.The obtained center-of-mass anomalous velocity is found to exhibit a non-trivial dependence on the fields,as well as the wave function and valley index of the exciton.These findings can serve as a general guide for the field-control of the valley-dependent exciton transport,enabling the design of novel quantum optoelectronic and valleytronic devices.

Photonic graphene with reconfigurable geometric structures in coherent atomic ensembles

Photonic graphene,possesses a honeycomb-like geometric structure,provides a superior platform for simulating photonic bandgap,Dirac physics,and topological photonics.Here,the photonic graphene with reconfigurable geometric structures is demonstrated in a 5S_(1/2)–5P_(3/2)–5D_(5/2) cascade-type 85Rb atomic ensembles.A strong hexagonal-coupling field,formed by the interference of three identical coupling beams,is responsible for optically inducing photonic graphene in atomic vapor.The incident weak probe beam experiences discrete diffraction,and the observed pattern at the output plane of vapor cell exhibits a clear hexagonal intensity distribution.The complete photonic graphene geometries from transversely stretched to longitudinally stretched are conveniently constructed by varying the spatial arrangement of three coupling beams,and the corresponding diffraction patterns are implemented theoretically and experimentally to map these distorted geometric structures.Moreover,the distribution of lattice sites intensity in photonic graphene is further dynamically adjusted by two-photon detuning and the coupling beams power.This work paves the way for further investigation of light transport and graphene dynamics.

Widespread reliance on fossil fuels,and the resulting imbalance between energy supply and demand have emerged as significant obstacles to achieving sustainable development.Triboelectric nanogenerators(TENGs)offer a viable solution to this problem.Among the various materials used in TENGs,fabrics with geometric structures have attracted considerable interest because of their advantageous properties,such as their light weight,breathable structures,favorable softness,and excellent breathability.This review provides a comprehensive introduction to fabric geometric(fabric structure with yarn as the basic unit,including woven fabrics formed by warp and weft yarns and knitted fabrics formed by yarn coils,etc.)TENGs,including their definition,working principle,and mechanisms,and explores the recent progress in TENGs based on one-,two-,and three-dimensional structures,classifying them into woven and knitted fabrics according to the fabrication method.We summarize the advantages and disadvantages of TENGs with different dimensions.Considering the intrinsically limited conductivity of the fiber and fabric,progress in improving the comprehensive output performance of TENGs via combination with other conductive materials and surface modification is discussed.Finally,this review concludes with a discussion of the challenges,opportunities,and potential applications related to TENGs based on fabric geometric structures.This study is expected to provide readers with new strategies and conceptual ideas to improve the performance of TENGs constructed with fabrics,particularly through the optimization of their structures.

(AuAg)_(44)(SPhtBu)_(26) versus(AuAg)_(44)(SPhF_(2))_(30):Tailoring the Geometric Structures and Optical Properties of Nanocluster Analogues

Monolayer-protected nanoclusters are ideal models for understanding the correlations between structures and properties of inorganic nanoparticles,especially for those molecules with identical sizes but comparable structures.Here,we controllably prepared and structurally determined a valence-neutral Au_(24+x)Ag_(20-x)(SPhtBu)_(26)(0<x<4)nanocluster with comparable structure features to a well-known Au_(12)Ag_(32)(SPhF_(2))_(30) cluster.The Au_(24+x)Ag_(20-x)(SPhtBu)_(26) cluster contained a hollow Au_(12)@M_(20) metallic kernel(M=Au/Ag),12 Au_(1)(SR)_(2) staples,and two bridging SR molecules,and its average molecular formula was determined to be Au_(26.3)Ag_(17.7)(SPhtBu)_(26),as evidenced by X-ray crystallography and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry.Because of the ligand effect and the asymmetrical arrangement of the Au dopants in the dodecahedral cage,the Au_(24+x)Ag_(20-x)(SPhtBu)_(26) nanocluster exhibited lower molecular symmetry relative to Au_(12)Ag_(32)(SPhF_(2))_(30) in terms of the dodecahedral kernel and motif shell structures.Besides,the strong π-π interaction in Au2_(4+x)Ag_(20-x)(SPhtBu)_(26) contributed to its enhanced photoluminescence intensity compared with Au_(12)Ag_(32)(SPhF_(2))_(30).The study,herein,extends the 44-metal-atom cluster family,thereby enabling us to better understand the correlations between their structures and properties at the atomic level.

Geometric properties of the first singlet S-wave excited state of two-electron atoms near the critical nuclear charge

The geometric structure parameters and radial density distribution of 1s2s1S excited state of the two-electron atomic system near the critical nuclear charge Z_(c)were calculated in detail under tripled Hylleraas basis set.Contrary to the localized behavior observed in the ground and the doubly excited 2p^(23)Pe states,for this state our results identify that while the behavior of the inner electron increasingly resembles that of a hydrogen-like atomic system,the outer electron in the excited state exhibits diffused hydrogen-like character and becomes perpendicular to the inner electron as nuclear charge Z approaches Z_(c).This study provides insights into the electronic structure and stability of the two-electron system in the vicinity of the critical nuclear charge.

An Original Didactic of the Standard Model “The Particle’s Geometric Model” (Nucleons and K-Mesons)

This paper shows a didactic model (PGM), and not only, but representative of the Hadrons described in the Standard Model (SM). In this model, particles are represented by structures corresponding to geometric shapes of coupled quantum oscillators (IQuO). By the properties of IQuO one can define the electric charge and that of color of quarks. Showing the “aurea” (golden) triangular shape of all quarks, we manage to represent the geometric combinations of the nucleons, light mesons, and K-mesons. By the geometric shape of W-bosons, we represent the weak decay of pions and charged Kaons and neutral, highlighting in geometric terms the possibilities of decay in two and three pions of neutral Kaon and the transition to anti-Kaon. In conclusion, from this didactic representation, an in-depth and exhaustive phenomenology of hadrons emerges, which even manages to resolve some problematic aspects of the SM.

A Density Functional Theory Study of the Geometric and Electronic Structure of MgF_2 (110) Surface

Abstract＂ Ab initio density functional theory （DFT） was employed to study geometric and electronic structure of MgF2 （110） surface. Three different clean surface models have been considered. The results show that the surface terminated with one-layer F has the smallest relaxation and the lowest surface energy, which indicates this model is the most energetically favorable structure of MgF2（110） surface. Furthermore, the electronic properties are also discussed from the point of density of states and charge density. Analysis of electronic structure shows that the band gap of the surface is significantly narrowed with respect to the bulk. The electrons of the surface exhibit strong locality and larger effective mass.

Analytic approach on geometric structure of invariant manifolds of the collinear Lagrange points

An analytical method is proposed to find geometric structures of stable,unstable and center manifolds of the collinear Lagrange points.In a transformed space,where the linearized equations are in Jordan canonical form,these invariant manifolds can be approximated arbitrarily closely as Taylor series around Lagrange points.These invariant manifolds are represented by algebraic equations containing the state variables only without the help of time.Thus the so-called geometric structure of these invariant manifolds is obtained.The stable,unstable and center manifolds are tangent to the stable,unstable and center eigenspaces,respectively.As an example of applicability,the invariant manifolds of L 1 point of the Sun-Earth system are considered.The stable and unstable manifolds are symmetric about the line from the Sun to the Earth,and they both reach near the Earth,so that the low energy transfer trajectory can be found based on the stable and unstable manifolds.The periodic or quasi-periodic orbits,which are chosen as nominal arrival orbits,can be obtained based on the center manifold.

Boosting Electrochemical Urea Synthesis via Constructing Ordered Pd–Zn Active Pair

Electrochemical co-reduction of nitrate(NO_(3)^(-))and carbon dioxide(CO_(2))has been widely regarded as a promising route to produce urea under ambient conditions,however the yield rate of urea has remained limited.Here,we report an atomically ordered intermetallic pallium-zinc(PdZn)electrocatalyst comprising a high density of PdZn pairs for boosting urea electrosynthesis.It is found that Pd and Zn are responsible for the adsorption and activation of NO_(3)^(-)and CO_(2),respectively,and thus the co-adsorption and co-activation NO_(3)^(-)and CO_(2) are achieved in ordered PdZn pairs.More importantly,the ordered and well-defined PdZn pairs provide a dual-site geometric structure conducive to the key C-N coupling with a low kinetical barrier,as demonstrated on both operando measurements and theoretical calculations.Consequently,the PdZn electrocatalyst displays excellent performance for the co-reduction to generate urea with a maximum urea Faradaic efficiency of 62.78%and a urea yield rate of 1274.42μg mg^(-1) h^(-1),and the latter is 1.5-fold larger than disordered pairs in PdZn alloys.This work paves new pathways to boost urea electrosynthesis via constructing ordered dual-metal pairs.

From concept to commercialization:A review of tubular solid oxide fuel cell technology

The reduced sealing difficulty of tubular solid oxide fuel cells(SOFCs)makes the stacking of tubular cell groups relatively easy,and the thermal stress constraints during stack operation are smaller,which helps the stack to operate stably for a long time.The special design of tubular SOFC structures can completely solve the problem of high-temperature sealing,especially in the design of multiple single-cell series integrated into one tube,where each cell tube is equivalent to a small electric stack,with unique characteristics of high voltage and low current output,which can significantly reduce the ohmic polarization loss of tubular cells.This paper provides an overview of typical tubular SOFC structural designs both domestically and internationally.Based on the geometric structure of tubular SOFCs,they can be divided into bamboo tubes,bamboo flat tubes,single-section tubes,and single-section flat tube structures.Meanwhile,this article provides an overview of commonly used materials and preparation methods for tubular SOFCs,including commonly used materials and preparation methods for support and functional layers,as well as a comparison of commonly used preparation methods for microtubule SOFCs,It introduced the three most important parts of building a fuel cell stack:manifold,current collector,and ceramic adhesive,and also provided a detailed introduction to the power generation systems of different tubular SOFCs,Finally,the development prospects of tubular SOFCs were discussed.

Geometric effect promoted hydrotalcites catalysts towards aldol condensation reaction

In solid basic catalysis field,how to achieve optimized activity and desired stability through elaborate control over basic site properties remains a challenge.In this work,taking advantage of the structure memory effect of layered double hydroxides(LDHs),rehydrated Ca4 Al1-x Gax-LDHs and Ca4 Al1-x Inx-LDHs catalysts were prepared and applied in aldol condensation reaction that isobutyraldehyde(IBD)reacts with formaldehyde(FA)to obtain hydroxypivalaldehyde(HPA).Notably,the resulting re-Ca4 Al0.90Ga0.10-LDHs exhibits an extraordinarily-high catalytic activity(HPA yield:72%),which is to our best knowledge the highest level in this reaction.The weak Br?nsted basic site,7-coordinated Ca-OH group,which serves as an active site,catalyzes the condensation process and promotes the product desorption.Studies on structure-property correlations demonstrate that Ga as a structural promoter induces a moderate expansion of the laminate lattice,which results in a significant increase in the concentration of weak basic sites in re-Ca4Al0.90Ga0.10-LDHs,accounting for its high catalytic activity.This work illuminates that geometric structure of basic active sites can be tuned via introducing catalyst additive,which leads to a largely improved performance of hydrotalcite solid basic catalysts towards aldol condensation reaction.
