The results show that two coherent solitons, one as the signal light and the other as the control light, can form a BSP when the peak intensity of the control light is appropriately selected. Moreover, under the diffusion effect, the BSP experiences a self-bending process during propagating and the center of the BSP moves on a parabolic trajectory. Furthermore, the lateral shift of the BSP at the output face of the crystal can be manipulated by adjusting the peak intensity of the control light. The research results provide a method for the design of all-optical switching and routing based on the manipulation of the lateral position of BSPs.展开更多

This model contains a non-linear mass balance equation which is related to rate expression. This paper presents an approximate analytical method (Modified Adomian decomposition method) to solve the non-linear differential equations for chemical kinetics with diffusion effects. A simple and closed form of expressions pertaining to substrate concentration and utilization factor is presented for all value of diffusion parameters. These analytical results are compared with numerical results and found to be in good agreement.展开更多

The sizes of the cubic samples are 0.5, 1, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.5 and 3 cm edge with a respective initial water content of 2.7, 3.76, 3.48, 2.68, 3.28, 2.17 and 2.29 kg/kgms. For cylindrical samples, the radius is set at 0.5 cm and sample heights are 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5 and 4 cm with respective water contents of 2.2, 3.19, 2.85, 2.1, 2.17, 2.39 and 2.03 kg/kgms. The effective diffusion coefficients of cubic samples are of the order of 10−10 and 10−9 m2∙s−1 grew with sample edge. As for the cylindrical samples, the effective diffusion coefficients were of the order of 10−9 m2∙s−1 and there was no linear correlation between cylinder height and their effective diffusion coefficient. As for the examination of the initial water content on the effective diffusion coefficient, it turned out that the initial water content had no influence on the effective diffusion coefficient of the sweet potato samples.展开更多

On the basis of the hindered diffusion theory of spherical neutral macromolecules in a micropore of a long cylinder, the effects of molecular dimension and configuration are studied by defining two molecular dimensions:the mean projected radius to predict the concentration partition and the ' hydrodynamically equivalent sphere' radius to evaluate the hydrodynamic reverse drag force. The quantitative comparison shows that the effective diffusion coefficients for different macromolecules predicted by the present method are more consistent with the available published experimental data.展开更多

We show that both the effective diffusion and the effective drag coefficient are mathematically well-defined and we derive analytic expressions for these two quantities. We then investigate the asymptotic behaviors of the effective diffusion and the effective drag coefficient, respectively, for small driving force and for large driving force. In the case of small driving force, the effective diffusion is reduced from its Brownian value by a factor that increases exponentially with the amplitude of the potential. The effective drag coefficient is increased by approximately the same factor. As a result, the Einstein relation between the diffusion coefficient and the drag coefficient is approximately valid when the driving force is small. For moderately large driving force, both the effective diffusion and the effective drag coefficient are increased from their Brownian values, and the Einstein relation breaks down. In the limit of very large driving force, both the effective diffusion and the effective drag coefficient converge to their Brownian values and the Einstein relation is once again valid.展开更多

The LEDs with less Mg back-diffusion show blue shifts of longer wavelengths and larger wavelengths with the increasing current, which results from the Mg-dopant-related polarization screening. The LEDs show enhanced efficiency with the decreasing Mg back-diffusion in the lower current region. Light outputs follow the power law L α I^m, with smaller parameter m in the LEDs with less Mg back-diffusion, indicating a lower density of trap states. The trap-assisted tunneling current is also suppressed by reducing Mg- defect-related nonradiative centers in the active region. Furthermore, the forward current-voltage characteristics are improved.展开更多

It was found that electric current greatly reduced the bonding temperature of Zr and Ti3AlC2. By the micro-structure analysis of the interface through SEM/EDS, it was found that Al atoms diffused from the Ti3AlC2 substrate into the Zr side and reacted with Zr to form the Zr-Al compounds at the interface, which is the strengthening mechanism of Ti3AlC2-Zr bonding. The thickness of reaction layers（Zr-Al alloy） was from 0.879 to 13.945 mm depending on different sintering condition. Current direction, heating rate, soaking time, pulse patterns all influenced the diffusion of Al atoms which affected the joining quality of Zr and Ti3AlC2.展开更多

Numerous isotope signals observed in geologic processes have been interpreted with this model. The RDIF model provides a simple mathematic solution for the reservoir-limited equilibrium isotope fractionation effect. Due to the reservoir effect, tremendously large isotope fractionations will always be produced if the reservoir is close to being depleted. However, in real situations, many prerequisites assumed in the RDIF model are often difficult to meet. For instance, it requires the relocated materials, which are removed step by step from one reservoir to another with different isotope compositions(i.e., with isotope fractionation), to be isotopically equilibrated with materials in the first reservoir simultaneously. This ‘‘quick equilibrium requirement’’ is indeed hard to meet if the first reservoir is sufficiently large or the removal step is fast. The whole first reservoir will often fail to re-attain equilibrium in time before the next removal starts.This problem led the RDIF model to fail to interpret isotope signals of many real situations. Here a diffusion-coupled and Rayleigh-like(i.e., reservoir-effect included) separation process is chosen to investigate this problem. We find that the final isotope fractionations are controlled by both the diffusion process and the reservoir effects via the disequilibrium separation process. Due to its complexity, we choose to use a numerical simulation method to solve this problem by developing specific computing codes for the working model.According to our simulation results, the classical RDIF model only governs isotope fractionations correctly at the final stages of separation when the reservoir scale(or thickness of the system) is reduced to the order of magnitude of the quotient of the diffusivity and the separation rate. The RDIF model fails in other situations and the isotope fractionations will be diffusion-limited when the reservoir is relatively large, or the separation rate is fast. We find that the effect of internal isotope distribution inhomogeneity caused by diffusion on the Rayleigh-like separation process is significant and cannot be ignored. This method can be applied to study numerous geologic and planetary processes involving diffusion-limited disequilibrium separation processes including partial melting,evaporation, mineral precipitation, core segregation, etc.Importantly, we find that far more information can be extracted through analyzing isotopic signals of such ‘‘disequilibrium’’processes than those of fully equilibrated ones, e.g., reservoir size and the separation rate. Such information may provide a key to correctly interpreting many isotope signals observed from geochemical and cosmochemical processes.展开更多

In this work, the South Indian Ocean westerly index(SIWI) and Indian Ocean swell diffusion effect index(IOSDEI) are defined on the basis of the 45-year(September 1957–August 2002) ERA-40 wave reanalysis data from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts(ECMWF) to analyze the impact of the South Indian Ocean westerlies on the propagation of swell acreage. The following results were obtained: 1) The South Indian Ocean swell mainly propagates from southwest to northeast. The swell also spreads to the Arabian Sea upon reaching low-latitude waters. The 2.0-meter contour of the swell can reach northward to Sri Lankan waters. 2) The size of the IOSDEI is determined by the SIWI strength. The IOSDEI requires approximately 2–3.5 days to fully respond to the SIWI. The correlations between SIWI and IOSDEI show obvious seasonal differences, with the highest correlations found in December–January–February(DJF) and the lowest correlations observed in June–July–August(JJA). 3) The SIWI and IOSDEI have a common period of approximately 1 week in JJA and DJF. The SIWI leads by approximately 2–3 days in this common period.展开更多

It was considered that the pores of catalyst pellets were full of liquid wax under Fischer-Tropsch synthesis conditions. The re- actants diffused from the bulk gas phase to the external surface of the pellet, and then the reactants diffused through the wax inside the pellet and reacted on the internal surface formed along the pore passages of the pellet. On the basis of reaction kinetics and double a-ASF product distribution model, a diffusion and reaction model of catalyst pellet was established. The effects of diffusion and reaction interaction in a catalyst pellet, the bulk temperature, the reaction pressure and the pellet size on the reactivity were further investigated. The relationship between the internal diffusion effectiveness factor of spherical catalyst pellet and the Thiele modulus were also discussed. The bulk temperature and pellet size have significant effects on the reactivity, while the pressure shows only a slight influence on the reactivity. The internal diffusion effectiveness factor decreases with an increasing Thiele modulus.展开更多

文摘Appropriate drying process with optimized controlling of drying parameters plays a vital role in the improvement of the quality and performance of propellant products.However,few research on solvent transport dynamics within NC-based propellants was reported,and its effect on the evolution of mechanical properties was not interpreted yet.This study is conducted to gain a comprehensive understanding of hot-air drying for NC-based propellants and clarify the effect of temperature on solvent transport behavior and further the change of mechanical properties during drying.The drying kinetic curves show the drying time required is decreased but the steady solvent content is increased and the drying rate is obviously increased with the increase of hot-air temperatures,indicating hot-air temperatures have a significant effect on drying kinetics.A modified drying model was established,and results show it is more appropriate to describe solvent transport behavior within NC-based propellants.Moreover,two linear equations were established to exhibit the relationship between solvent content and its effect on the change of tensile properties,and the decrease of residual solvent content causes an obvious increase of tensile strength and tensile modulus of propellant products,indicating its mechanical properties can be partly improved by adjustment of residual solvent content.The outcomes can be used to clarify solvent transport mechanisms and optimize drying process parameters of double-based gun propellants.

文摘This paper presents a theoretical method for predicting the effective diffusion coefficient of macromolecules in the microporous membrfines in view of the effects of molecular dimension and configuration. On the basis of the hindered diffusion theory of spherical neutral macromolecules in a micropore of a long cylinder, the effects of molecular dimension and configuration are studied by defining two molecular dimensions:the mean projected radius to predict the concentration partition and the ' hydrodynamically equivalent sphere' radius to evaluate the hydrodynamic reverse drag force. The quantitative comparison shows that the effective diffusion coefficients for different macromolecules predicted by the present method are more consistent with the available published experimental data.
文摘We study the stochastic motion of a Brownian particle driven by a constant force over a static periodic potential. We show that both the effective diffusion and the effective drag coefficient are mathematically well-defined and we derive analytic expressions for these two quantities. We then investigate the asymptotic behaviors of the effective diffusion and the effective drag coefficient, respectively, for small driving force and for large driving force. In the case of small driving force, the effective diffusion is reduced from its Brownian value by a factor that increases exponentially with the amplitude of the potential. The effective drag coefficient is increased by approximately the same factor. As a result, the Einstein relation between the diffusion coefficient and the drag coefficient is approximately valid when the driving force is small. For moderately large driving force, both the effective diffusion and the effective drag coefficient are increased from their Brownian values, and the Einstein relation breaks down. In the limit of very large driving force, both the effective diffusion and the effective drag coefficient converge to their Brownian values and the Einstein relation is once again valid.

文摘The effect of back-diffusion of Mg dopants on optoelectronic characteristics of InGaN-based green light-emitting diodes （LEDs） is investigated. The LEDs with less Mg back-diffusion show blue shifts of longer wavelengths and larger wavelengths with the increasing current, which results from the Mg-dopant-related polarization screening. The LEDs show enhanced efficiency with the decreasing Mg back-diffusion in the lower current region. Light outputs follow the power law L α I^m, with smaller parameter m in the LEDs with less Mg back-diffusion, indicating a lower density of trap states. The trap-assisted tunneling current is also suppressed by reducing Mg- defect-related nonradiative centers in the active region. Furthermore, the forward current-voltage characteristics are improved.

文摘The spark plasma sintering（SPS） method was used to study the mechanism of reaction interface between Zr and Ti3AlC2 with electric current going through it. It was found that electric current greatly reduced the bonding temperature of Zr and Ti3AlC2. By the micro-structure analysis of the interface through SEM/EDS, it was found that Al atoms diffused from the Ti3AlC2 substrate into the Zr side and reacted with Zr to form the Zr-Al compounds at the interface, which is the strengthening mechanism of Ti3AlC2-Zr bonding. The thickness of reaction layers（Zr-Al alloy） was from 0.879 to 13.945 mm depending on different sintering condition. Current direction, heating rate, soaking time, pulse patterns all influenced the diffusion of Al atoms which affected the joining quality of Zr and Ti3AlC2.
文摘The effects of positron diffusion on the measured S parameter have been investigated by a point-source diffusion model and a δ function method. Firstly, the theoretical analyses of the effects are presented for the samples of a homogeneous semi-infinite medium and a film of definite thickness. Then the results are used to analyze the S parameters in several composite systems and interface models.

文摘The Rayleigh distillation isotope fractionation(RDIF) model is one of the most popular methods used in isotope geochemistry. Numerous isotope signals observed in geologic processes have been interpreted with this model. The RDIF model provides a simple mathematic solution for the reservoir-limited equilibrium isotope fractionation effect. Due to the reservoir effect, tremendously large isotope fractionations will always be produced if the reservoir is close to being depleted. However, in real situations, many prerequisites assumed in the RDIF model are often difficult to meet. For instance, it requires the relocated materials, which are removed step by step from one reservoir to another with different isotope compositions(i.e., with isotope fractionation), to be isotopically equilibrated with materials in the first reservoir simultaneously. This ‘‘quick equilibrium requirement’’ is indeed hard to meet if the first reservoir is sufficiently large or the removal step is fast. The whole first reservoir will often fail to re-attain equilibrium in time before the next removal starts.This problem led the RDIF model to fail to interpret isotope signals of many real situations. Here a diffusion-coupled and Rayleigh-like(i.e., reservoir-effect included) separation process is chosen to investigate this problem. We find that the final isotope fractionations are controlled by both the diffusion process and the reservoir effects via the disequilibrium separation process. Due to its complexity, we choose to use a numerical simulation method to solve this problem by developing specific computing codes for the working model.According to our simulation results, the classical RDIF model only governs isotope fractionations correctly at the final stages of separation when the reservoir scale(or thickness of the system) is reduced to the order of magnitude of the quotient of the diffusivity and the separation rate. The RDIF model fails in other situations and the isotope fractionations will be diffusion-limited when the reservoir is relatively large, or the separation rate is fast. We find that the effect of internal isotope distribution inhomogeneity caused by diffusion on the Rayleigh-like separation process is significant and cannot be ignored. This method can be applied to study numerous geologic and planetary processes involving diffusion-limited disequilibrium separation processes including partial melting,evaporation, mineral precipitation, core segregation, etc.Importantly, we find that far more information can be extracted through analyzing isotopic signals of such ‘‘disequilibrium’’processes than those of fully equilibrated ones, e.g., reservoir size and the separation rate. Such information may provide a key to correctly interpreting many isotope signals observed from geochemical and cosmochemical processes.

文摘Research on the diffusion characteristics of swells contributes positively to wave energy forecasting, swell monitoring, and early warning. In this work, the South Indian Ocean westerly index(SIWI) and Indian Ocean swell diffusion effect index(IOSDEI) are defined on the basis of the 45-year(September 1957–August 2002) ERA-40 wave reanalysis data from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts(ECMWF) to analyze the impact of the South Indian Ocean westerlies on the propagation of swell acreage. The following results were obtained: 1) The South Indian Ocean swell mainly propagates from southwest to northeast. The swell also spreads to the Arabian Sea upon reaching low-latitude waters. The 2.0-meter contour of the swell can reach northward to Sri Lankan waters. 2) The size of the IOSDEI is determined by the SIWI strength. The IOSDEI requires approximately 2–3.5 days to fully respond to the SIWI. The correlations between SIWI and IOSDEI show obvious seasonal differences, with the highest correlations found in December–January–February(DJF) and the lowest correlations observed in June–July–August(JJA). 3) The SIWI and IOSDEI have a common period of approximately 1 week in JJA and DJF. The SIWI leads by approximately 2–3 days in this common period.

文摘The diffusion and reaction phenomenon in a Fe-based catalyst pellet for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis was studied. It was considered that the pores of catalyst pellets were full of liquid wax under Fischer-Tropsch synthesis conditions. The re- actants diffused from the bulk gas phase to the external surface of the pellet, and then the reactants diffused through the wax inside the pellet and reacted on the internal surface formed along the pore passages of the pellet. On the basis of reaction kinetics and double a-ASF product distribution model, a diffusion and reaction model of catalyst pellet was established. The effects of diffusion and reaction interaction in a catalyst pellet, the bulk temperature, the reaction pressure and the pellet size on the reactivity were further investigated. The relationship between the internal diffusion effectiveness factor of spherical catalyst pellet and the Thiele modulus were also discussed. The bulk temperature and pellet size have significant effects on the reactivity, while the pressure shows only a slight influence on the reactivity. The internal diffusion effectiveness factor decreases with an increasing Thiele modulus.
