In this paper, we examine the potential strong coupling problem at early times in a bouncing cosmological model with “strong gravity past” (Jordan frame), which is conformally related to inflation (Einstein frame). From naive-dimensional analysis Jordan frame, one would conclude that quantum energy scale can be lower than classical scale. However, from Einstein frame prospective, should not cas...

Coupling of Natural Boundary Element Method and Finite Element Method for Three-dimensional Nonlinear Interface Problem Hong-ying Huang2,1 and De-hao Yu 2 Summary In this paper, we apply the coupling of natural boundary element method and finite element method to solve a three-dimensional nonlinear interface problem. Two equations are coupled by interface conditions on the interface boundary. A...

in this paper, effects of the structural parameters on the optical characteristics of an add-drop filter, consisting of two straight waveguides and a micro-ring resonator (mrr), have been investigated. in this research, effects of mrr radius, the width of mrr and waveguide and the gap between mrr and waveguide, on free spectral range (fsr) and coupling coefficient have been studied. it is found...

designing a power splitter with five ports has been shown in this article. in order to prevent the direct coupling between waveguides, a t-shaped structure with an appropriate distance has been used. the coupling between the parallel photonic crystal waveguides is based on multimode interference, while selecting the output efficiency is performed by setting the refractive coefficients and radiu...

zinc oxide nano-particles with the average diameter of about 25 nm were modified with different mole ratios of trimetoxyvinyl silane (tmvs) and oleic acid, as coupling agents, in order to modify their surface properties and render them more hydrophobic. then, dispersibility of the surface modified nano-particles was examined in some monomers with different levels of hydrophobicity, including me...
