Activated processes in materials are important for many of the properties that make them function. Batteries and catalysts are examples for which understanding how the component materials function on a timescale of milliseconds to seconds is critical to making improvements in a rational way. Modeling materials over these long timescales, relative to the timescale of atomic vibrations, is one of...

to enhance the understanding of the impact of obstacle buildings on pollution transportationand dispersion in the atmospheric boundary layer, it is necessary to know the atmospheric flow characteristics over terrains. wind flow characteristics in a boundary layer over a step-shaped cliff topography model with rough and smooth surfaces were studied numerically using computational fluid dynamics ...

The surface quality of an aluminum foam sandwich panel (AFSP) is very important for its appearance and application. This paper mainly studies the AFSP after plastic forming. Combined with three-dimensional (3D) scanning technology, normal deviation between experimental target was obtained, parameters Sq, Sz dmax were calculated to evaluate quality. models cubic-spherical (CS) tetrakaidecahedral...

Abstract In the present article, an integrated paradigm for topology optimization on complex surfaces with arbitrary genus is proposed. The approach constructed based two-dimensional (2D) Moving Morphable Component (MMC) framework, where a set of structural components are used as basic units optimization, and computational conformal mapping (CCM) technique, which surface represented by unstruct...

Discharge of wastewater contained high amount nitrogen would cause eutrophication to water bodies. Simultaneous nitrification and denitrification (SND) has been confirmed as an effective process, the isolation SND bacteria is crucial for its successful operation. In this study, strain was isolated identified Pseudomona aeruginosa LS82, which exhibited a rapid growth rate (0.385 h−1) good remova...

The task of finding saddle points on potential energy surfaces plays a crucial role in understanding the dynamics of a micromolecule as well as in studying the folding pathways of macromolecules like proteins. The problem of finding the saddle points on a high dimensional potential energy surface is transformed into the problem of finding decomposition points of its corresponding nonlinear dyna...

A gas of rubidium atoms has been excited by a combination of ultraviolet and far-infrared excitation to a superposition of Stark states lying just above the classical saddle point. Using an atomic streak camera, we have demonstrated that the atom ejects an ultrafast train of electron subpulses nearly equally spaced in time, with a repetition rate of approximately 50 GHz. The frequency character...
