Temperature-dependent photoluminescence characteristics of organic-inorganic halide perovskite CH3NH3Pb I3-xClx films prepared using a two-step method on ZnO/FTO substrates were investigated. Surface morphology and absorption characteristics of the films were also studied. Scanning electron microscopy revealed large crystals and substrate coverage. The orthorhombic-to-tetragonal phase transition temperature was-140 K. The films＇ exciton binding energy was 77.6 ± 10.9 meV and the energy of optical phonons was 38.8 ± 2.5 meV.

RBFs Meshless Method of Lines for the Numerical Solution of Time-Dependent Nonlinear Coupled Partial Differential Equations

In this paper a meshless method of lines is proposed for the numerical solution of time-dependent nonlinear coupled partial differential equations. Contrary to mesh oriented methods of lines using the finite-difference and finite element methods to approximate spatial derivatives, this new technique does not require a mesh in the problem domain, and a set of scattered nodes provided by initial data is required for the solution of the problem using some radial basis functions. Accuracy of the method is assessed in terms of the error norms L2, L∞ and the three invariants C1, C2, C3. Numerical experiments are performed to demonstrate the accuracy and easy implementation of this method for the three classes of time-dependent nonlinear coupled partial differential equations.

A nonconforming finite element method of finite difference streamline diffusion type is proposed to solve the time-dependent linearized Navier-Stokes equations. The backward Euler scheme is used for time discretization. Crouzeix-Raviart nonconforming finite element approximation, namely, nonconforming （P1）2 - P0 element, is used for the velocity and pressure fields with the streamline diffusion technique to cope with usual instabilities caused by the convection and time terms. Stability and error estimates are derived with suitable norms.

In particular, it is shown that the corresponding method exactly reproduces the spectrum of linearly inversely potentials with spatially dependent mass.

Generalized thermoelasticity of the thermal shock problem in an isotropic hollow cylinder and temperature dependent elastic moduli

In this paper, we construct the equations of generalized thermoelasicity for a non-homogeneous isotropic hollow cylider with a variable modulus of elasticity and thermal conductivity based on the Lord and Shulman theory. The problem has been solved numerically using the finite element method. Numerical results for the displacement, the temperature, the radial stress, and the hoop stress distributions are illustrated graphically. Comparisons are made between the results predicted by the coupled theory and by the theory of generalized thermoelasticity with one relaxation time in the cases of temperature dependent and independent modulus of elasticity.

A New Maximum Test via the Dependent Samples t-Test and the Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test

A maximum test in lieu of forcing a choice between the two dependent samples t-test and Wilcoxon signed-ranks test is proposed. The maximum test, which requires a new table of critical values, maintains nominal α while guaranteeing the maximum power of the two constituent tests. Critical values, obtained via Monte Carlo methods, are uniformly smaller than the Bonferroni-Dunn adjustment, giving it power superiority when testing for treatment alternatives of shift in location parameter when data are sampled from non-normal distributions.

A Novel BEM for Modeling and Simulation of 3T Nonlinear Generalized Anisotropic Micropolar-Thermoelasticity Theory with Memory Dependent Derivative

The main aim of this paper is to propose a new memory dependent derivative(MDD)theory which called threetemperature nonlinear generalized anisotropic micropolar-thermoelasticity.The system of governing equations of the problems associated with the proposed theory is extremely difficult or impossible to solve analytically due to nonlinearity,MDD diffusion,multi-variable nature,multi-stage processing and anisotropic properties of the considered material.Therefore,we propose a novel boundary element method(BEM)formulation for modeling and simulation of such system.The computational performance of the proposed technique has been investigated.The numerical results illustrate the effects of time delays and kernel functions on the nonlinear three-temperature and nonlinear displacement components.The numerical results also demonstrate the validity,efficiency and accuracy of the proposed methodology.The findings and solutions of this study contribute to the further development of industrial applications and devices typically include micropolar-thermoelastic materials.

Role of Parallel Tempering Monte Carlo Simulation in 2D Ising Spin Glass System with Distance Dependent Interaction

Spin glass system is a complex disordered system with a number of local minima separated by entropic barriers. Therefore, parallel tempering Monte Carlo simulation was used in order to get fast thermalisation （to minimize the relaxation time）. Distance dependent interaction coupling in 2D is studied in order to show how a spin glass phase transition occurs when couplings between far away spins are permitted by considering Edwards-Anderson Ising spin glass model. The interaction coupling is a quenched random variable whose probability of being non-zero decays with distance between two spin sites rij = ｜i-j｜mod（L/2）.The interaction coupling is random and its probability distribution is decaying with the distance between the spins （p（Jij） αrij^-ρ）. The model is studied by changing p among three different regimes （p 〉 2D, 4/3 D〈 p 〈 2D, p 〈 4/3D）. A phase transition temperature for p = 2, 3, 4 is obtained.

Time-dependent approach to the double-channel dissociation of the NaCs molecule induced by pulsed lasers

The dynamics of the double-channel dissociation of the NaCs molecule is investigated by using the time-dependent wave packet （TDWP） method with the ＂split operator-Fourier transform＂ scheme. At a given wavelength and intensity of laser pulse, the population of each state changing with time is obtained. The photo-absorption spectra and kinetic- energy distribution of the dissociation fragments, which exhibit vibration-level structure and dispersion of the wave packet, respectively, are also obtained. The results show that by increasing the laser intensity, one can find not only the band center shift of the photo-absorption spectrum, but also the change of the fragment energy. The appearance of the diffusive band in the photo-absorption spectrum and the multiple peaks in the kinetic-energy spectrum can be attributed to the effects of the predissoeiation limit and the external field.

Current dependence coefficient determination for different DC standard resistors measurements based on Ⅴ-Ⅰ method

Current dependence and stability of the measured resistance value are very important for the accurate measurement of DC standard resistor. In this paper, the volt-ampere （V-I） measurement method has been applied to study the current depend-ence of four different types of standard resistors. Diverse values are obtained through the investigation of their stability at dif-ferent currents. Therefore, the current dependence coefficient （CDC） can be determined for each one of the studied resistors. Research shows CDC depends on the applied current value, the measurement time and the resistor type, as clearly demonstra-ted in this research.

Relativistic Study of Spinless Particles for Generalized Hylleraas Potential with Position Dependent Mass

The relativistic study of spinless particles under a special case of equal scalar and vector generalized Hylleraas potential with position dependent mass has been studied. The energy eigenvalues and the corresponding wave functions expressed in terms ofa Jacobi polynomial are obtained using the parametric generalization of NU （Nikiforo-Uvarov） method. In obtaining the solutions for this system, we have used an approximation scheme to evaluate the centrifugal term （potential barrier）. To test the accuracy of the result, we compared the approximation scheme with the centrifugal term and the result shows a good agreement with the centrifugal term for a short-range potential. The results obtained in this work would have many applications in semiconductor quantum well structures, quantum dots, quantum liquids. Under limiting cases, the results could be used to study the binding energy and interaction of some diatomic molecules which is of great applications in nuclear physics, atomic and molecular physics and other related areas. We have also discussed few special cases of generalized Hylleraas potential such as Rosen-Morse, Woods-Saxon and Hulthen potentials.

A Mathematical Model to Solve Bio-Heat Transfer Problems through a Bio-Heat Transfer Equation with Quadratic Temperature-Dependent Blood Perfusion under a Constant Spatial Heating on Skin Surface

We consider the one-dimensional bio-heat transfer equation with quadratic temperature-dependent blood perfusion, which governs the temperature distribution inside biological tissues. Using an extended mapping method with symbolic computation, we obtain the exact analytical thermal traveling wave solution, which describes the non-uniform temperature distribution inside the bodies. The found exact solution is used to investigate the temperature distribution in the tissues. It is found that the surrounding medium with higher temperature does not necessarily imply that the tissue will quickly (after a short duration of heating process) reach the desired temperature. It is also found that increased perfusion causes a decline in local temperature.
