چکیده

We study mixing of isothermal fluids by controlling the global hydrodynamic entropy . In particular, based on the statistical coupling between the evolution of and the global viscous dissipation <ϵ> , we analyze stirring protocols such that ∼t(α)⇔<ϵ>∼t(α-1), with 0<α≤1. For a model array of vortices [Fukuta and Murakami, Phys. Rev. E 57, 449 (1998)], we show that: (i) feedback control can be achieved via input-output linearization, (ii) mixing is monotonically enhanced for increasing entropy production, and (iii) the mixing time t(m) scales as t(m)∼<ϵ>(-1/2).

Coherent Control of Quantum Entropy via Quantum Interference in a Four-Level Atomic System

The time evaluation of quantum entropy in a four-level double- type atomic system is theoretically investigated. Quantum entanglement of the atom and its spontaneous emission fields is then discussed via quantum entropy. It is found that the degree of entanglement can be increased by the quantum interference induced by spontaneous emission. The phase dependence of the atom-field entanglement is...

Microfluidic mixing via transverse electrokinetic effects in a planar microchannel

A new micromixer incorporating integrated electrodes deposited on the bottom surface of a glass/ PDMS microchannel is used to induce a localized, perpendicular electric field within pressure driven axial flow. The presence of the electric field drives electro-osmotic flow in the transverse direction along the channel walls, creating helical motion that serves to mix the fluid. A numerical model...

Using Urban Mixed Land use Measuring Indices And Spatial Statistics Techniques In Urban Sustainable Development Planning (Case Study: Ardabil City)

Introduction: Land use mixing is one of the essential components of the urban landscape in the sustainable development of urban areas and diversity of land uses. The location of urban land-uses has a significant impact on the quality of life and efficiency of services related to different land uses. Mixed land use enables residential, work, shopping, and public services adjacent to each other a...

Enhancement of Robust Tracking Performance via Switching Supervisory Adaptive Control

When the process is highly uncertain, even linear minimum phase systems must sacrifice desirable feedback control benefits to avoid an excessive ‘cost of feedback’, while preserving the robust stability. In this paper, the problem of supervisory based switching Quantitative Feedback Theory (QFT) control is proposed for the control of highly uncertain plants. According to this strategy, the unce...

Potentials of Evolving Linear Models in Tracking Control Design for Nonlinear Variable Structure Systems

Evolving models have found applications in many real world systems. In this paper, potentials of the Evolving Linear Models (ELMs) in tracking control design for nonlinear variable structure systems are introduced. At first, an ELM is introduced as a dynamic single input, single output (SISO) linear model whose parameters as well as dynamic orders of input and output signals can change through ...
