Giant and controllable Goos—Hänchen shift of a reflective beam off a hyperbolic metasurface of polar crystals

We conduct a theoretical analysis of the massive and tunable Goos–Hänchen(GH) shift on a polar crystal covered with periodical black phosphorus(BP)-patches in the THz range. The surface plasmon phonon polaritons(SPPPs), which are coupled by the surface phonon polaritons(SPh Ps) and surface plasmon polaritons(SPPs), can greatly increase GH shifts.Based on the in-plane anisotropy of BP, two typical metasurface models are designed and investigated. An enormous GH shift of about-7565.58 λ_(0) is achieved by adjusting the physical parameters of the BP-patches. In the designed metasurface structure, the maximum sensitivity accompanying large GH shifts can reach about 6.43 × 10^(8) λ_(0)/RIU, which is extremely sensitive to the size, carrier density, and layer number of BP. Compared with a traditional surface plasmon resonance sensor, the sensitivity is increased by at least two orders of magnitude. We believe that investigating metasurface-based SPPPs sensors could lead to high-sensitivity biochemical detection applications.

Numerical Analysis of the Influence of the Impinging Distance on the Scouring Efficiency of Submerged Jets

Water jet technology is widely used in submerged buried pipes as a non-traditional trenching process,often invol-ving a complex sediment response.An important adjustable and influential engineering variable in this technol-ogy is represented by the impinging distance.In this study,the FLOW-3D software was used to simulate the jet scouring of sand beds in a submerged environment.In particular,four sets of experimental conditions were con-sidered to discern the relationship between the maximum scour depth and mass and the impinging distance.As shown by the results,a critical impinging distance h0 exists by which the static scour depth can be maximized;the scour mass ratio between dynamic and static conditions decreases as the impinging distance increases.Moreover,the profile contours are similar when the erosion parameter Ec is in the range 0.35<Ec<2.Empirical equations applicable for predicting the jet trenching contour under both dynamic and static scour modes are also provided in this study.

Experimental and Three-Dimensional Numerical Simulation of Phenomena Induced by Submerged Oblique Jet Scouring

Scouring experiments were conducted using a three-dimensional laser scanning technology for angles of the jet spanning the interval from 0°to 30°,and the characteristics of the scour hole in equilibrium conditions were investigated accordingly.The results indicate that the optimal scouring effects occur when the jet angle is in the ranges between 15°and 20°.Moreover,the dimensionless profiles of the scour hole exhibit a high degree of similarity at different jet angles.Numerical simulations conducted using the Flow-3D software to investigate the bed shear stress along the jet impingement surface have shown that this stress is influenced by both the resultant force and the jet impingement surface area.It reaches its maximum value when the jet is vertical,decreases rapidly as the jet starts to tilt,then increases slightly,and decreases again significantly when the angle exceeds 20°.

Simulation of Seabed Erosion Produced by an Inclined Jet

Water jets are widely used in seabed scouring and desilting applications.In the present work,dedicated tests have been conducted using a jet scour model test platform and sand beds containing grains with different sizes.The FLOW-3D simulation software has also been used to tackle the problem form a numerical point of view.The boundary conditions of the simulation have been optimized to reduce the gap between the numerical results and the outcomes of the experimental tests.Scour area calculation has been based on a RNG k-εTurbulence model.Moreover,the FAVOR(Fractional Area Volume Obstacle Representation)technology has been selected for grid division to make the simulation results more accurate.Jet scours with inclination angles of 10–20°have been simulated.It has been found that jet scouring is greatly affected by the environmental water flow,that is,water flow can weaken the scouring capacity of the jets.

Experimental Study on the Effect of the Inclination Angle on the Scouring Efficiency of Submerged Water Jets

The effects of oblique submerged scouring jets on sand beds with various particle sizes have been studied experimentally.In particular,a total of 25 experiments have been carried out to explore the influences of the jet angle and application time on the considered submerged sand beds.Test results conducted with a specially-designed device have shown that the scouring efficiency attains a maximum when the inclination angle is in the range between 15°and 20°and then it decreases when the inclination angle becomes higher.

Waves of 3D Marine Structures Slamming at Different Initial Poses in Complex Wind-Wave-Flow Environments

Aimed at the hydrodynamic response for marine structures slamming into water, based on the mechanism analysis to the slamming process, and by combining 3D N-S equation and k-ε turbulent kinetic equation with structure fully 6DOF motion equation, a mathematical model for the wind-fluid-solid interaction is established in 3D marine structure slamming wave at free poses and wind-wave-flow complex environments. Compared with the results of physical model test, the numerical results from the slamming wave well correspond with the experimental results. Through the mathematical model, the wave-making issue of 3D marine structure at initial pose falls into water in different complex wind, wave and flow environments is investigated. The research results show that various kinds of natural factors and structure initial poses have different influence on the slamming wave, and there is an obvious rule in this process.

GENERALIZED RIEMANN INTEGRAL ON FRACTAL SETS

The theory of integration to mathematical analysis is so important that many mathematicians continue to develop new theory to enlarge the class of integrable functions and simplify the Lebesgue theory integration. In this paper, by slight modifying the definition of the Henstock integral which was introduced by Jaroslav Kurzweil and Ralph Henstock, we present a new definition of integral on fractal sets. Furthermore, its integrability has been discussed, and the relationship between differentiation and integral is also established. As an example, the integral of Cantor function on Cantor set is calculated.

Sensitive Information Protection Model Based on Bayesian Game

A game measurement model considering the attacker’s knowledge background is proposed based on the Bayesian game theory aiming at striking a balance between the protection of sensitive information and the quality of service.We quantified the sensitive level of information according to the user’s personalized sensitive information protection needs.Based on the probability distribution of sensitive level and attacker’s knowledge background type,the strategy combination of service provider and attacker was analyzed,and a game-based sensitive information protection model was constructed.Through the combination of strategies under Bayesian equilibrium,the information entropy was used to measure the leakage of sensitive information.Furthermore,in the paper the influence of the sensitive level of information and the attacker’s knowledge background on the strategy of both sides of the game was considered comprehensively.Further on,the leakage of the user’s sensitive information was measured.Finally,the feasibility of the model was described by experiments.

Low-rank spectral estimation algorithm of learning Markov model

This paper proposes a low-rank spectral estimation algorithm of learning Markov model.First,an approximate projection algorithm for the rank-constrained frequency matrix set is proposed,and thereafter its local Lipschitzian error bound established.Then,we propose a low-rank spectral estimation algorithm for estimating the state transition frequency matrix and the probability matrix of Markov model by applying the approximate projection algorithm to correct the maximum likelihood estimation of the frequency matrix,and prove that there is only a multiplying constant difference in estimation errors between the low-rank spectral estimation and the maximum likelihood estimation under appropriate conditions.Finally,numerical comparisons with the prevailing maximum likelihood estimation,spectral estimation,and rank-constrained maxi-mum likelihood estimation show that the low-rank spectral estimation algorithm is effective.

Probing valence quark width of the proton in deeply virtual Compton scattering at high energies

We use the refined hot spot model to study the valence quark shape of the proton with the deeply virtual Compton scattering at high energies in the color glass condensate framework.To investigate the individual valence quark shape,a novel treatment of the valence quark width is employed.We calculate the cross-sections for coherent and incoherent deeply virtual Compton scattering using,for the first time,different widths(Bu and Bd)for the profile density distributions of the up and down quarks instead of using the same width as in the literature.We find that the cross-sections calculated with Bu≥Bd at each collision energy are consistent with each other,which is in agreement with theoretical expectations,whereas those computed with Bu<Bd show some discrepancies.This outcome implies that the up quark might emit more gluons than the down quark,leading to Bu≥Bd at high energy.The impact of energy on the outcome is estimated.Our results show that as the collision energy increases,the aforementioned discrepancies are not only significantly broadened,but also shift to a relatively smaller momentum transfer range at the future Electron-Ion Collider(EIC)and Large Hadron Electron Collider(LHeC)energies,which indicates that the EIC and LHeC can provide an unprecedented chance to access the shape of the valence quark of the proton.

The survey highlights the significant advances in AI-based methods,particularly deep learning and reinforcement learning, in tackling the inherent challenges of SAGIN resource allocation. Through a critical review of existing literature, this paper categorizes various resource allocation strategies, identifies current research gaps, and discusses potential future directions. Our findings highlight the crucial role of integrated and intelligent resource allocation mechanisms in realizing the full potential of SAGIN for next-generation communication networks.

Online Power System Voltage Stability Index for LCC HVDC Using Local Measurements

This paper proposes an online power system voltage stability index(PVSI Online)that quantifies power system voltage stability in real time between an AC network and LCC HVDC using only local measurements.Previous methods relied on using telecommunications to inform a change in a predetermined AC network model.The proposed method uses local measurements of voltage and current from the HVDC using a newly developed,numerically robust technique called Moving Window Covariance to detect a change in the AC network in real time.These network parameters are fed to a newly devised index that accurately models and captures the dynamics of the interaction between an LCC HVDC and AC network.The index is used to quantify stability,but also to advise network operation.In an onset of instability due to network degradation,the proposed index can provide a power order value for the HVDC to restore stability.All as a self-contained module that can be implemented within a HVDC scheme.

Single inclusive hadron production at the LHC with an improved impact parameter dependent saturation model

To obtain a reasonable description of the hadron production at the LHC energies,the impact parameter dependent saturation model is modified by inclusion of an anomalous dimensionγ,which controls the slope of the scattering amplitude in the transition from the dilute region to the saturation region.We calculate the transverse momentum distribution and nuclear modification factor of theπ^(0)and charged hadrons with the improved model,and the results are consistent with measurements performed at the LHC.Moreover,we use the original impact parameter dependent model to study the aforementioned measurements performed at the LHC by adjusting its parameters.We find that the improved model is more consistent with the experimental data than the original one,as the anomalous dimension plays a significant role in the suppression of the evolution of the scattering amplitude.

Numerical simulations of vortex-induced vibrations of a flexible riser with different aspect ratiosin uniform and shear currents

This paper aimed at describing numerical simulations of vortex-induced vibrations（VIVs） of a long flexible riser with different length-to-diameter ratio（aspect ratio） in uniform and shear currents. Three aspect ratios were simulated： L/D= 500, 750 and 1 000. The simulation was carried out by the in-house computational fluid dynamics（CFD） solver viv-FOAM-SJTU developed by the authors, which was coupled with the strip method and developed on the OpenFOAM platform. Moreover, the radial basis function（RBF） dynamic grid technique is applied to the viv-FOAM-SJTU solver to simulate the VIV in both in-line（IL） and cross-flow（CF） directions of flexible riser with high aspect ratio. The validation of the benchmark case has been completed. With the same parameters, the aspect ratio shows a significant influence on VIV of a long flexible riser. The increase of aspect ratio exerted a strong effect on the IL equilibrium position of the riser while producing little effect on the curvature of riser. With the aspect ratio rose from 500 to 1 000, the maximum IL mean displacement increased from 3 times the diameter to 8 times the diameter. On the other hand, the vibration mode of the riser would increase with the increase of aspect ratio. When the aspect ratio was 500, the CF vibration was shown as a standing wave with a 3-（rd） order single mode. When the aspect ratio was 1 000, the modal weights of the 5-（th） and 6-（th） modes are high, serving as the dominant modes. The effect of the flow profile on the oscillating mode becomes more and more apparent when the aspect ratio is high, and the dominant mode of riser in shear flow is usually higher than that in uniform flow. When the aspect ratio was 750, the CF oscillations in both uniform flow and shear flow showed multi-mode vibration of the 4-（th） and 5-（th） mode. While, the dominant mode in uniform flow is the 4-（th） order, and the dominant mode in shear flow is the 5-（th） order.
