Anisotropic Cylinders

In recent years considerable attention has been given to problems of thermal stress in isotropic materials. Much of this work has been devoted to statical problems although there has been some work on problems with time dependence, for example the quasi-static solutions obtained by Sternberg (1) and Eason and Sneddon (2). A good deal of interest has also been shown in statical thermal stress problems when the material is anisotropic. For the type of material considered here statical problems have been investigated by Grechushnikov and Brodovskii (3) and Sirotin (4) among others. Little attention has been given, however, to time dependent thermal stress problems when the material is anisotropic.

Renormalization Group Approach

We generalise the epidemic Renormalization Group framework while connecting it to a SIR model with time-dependent coefficients. We then confront the model with COVID-19 in Denmark, Germany, Italy and France and show that the approach works rather well in reproducing the data. We also show that a better understanding of the time dependence of the recovery rate would require extending the model to take into account the number of deaths whenever these are over 15% of the cumulative number of infected cases.

Much of the work on the theory of diffraction by an infinite wedge has been for cases of harmonic time-dependence. Oberhettinger (1) obtained an expression for the Green's function of the wave equation in the two dimensional case of a line source of oscillating current parallel to the edge of a wedge with perfectly conducting walls. Solutions of the time-dependent wave equation have been obtained by Keller and Blank (2), Kay (3) and more recently by Turner (4) who considered the diffraction of a cylindrical pulse by a half plane.

Experimental Findings

A one-parameter family of time-dependent adiabatic indices is introduced for any given type of cosmological fluid of constant adiabatic index by a mathematical method belonging to the class of Darboux transformations. The procedure works for zero cosmological constant at the price of introducing a new constant parameter related to the time dependence of the adiabatic index. These fluids can be the real cosmological fluids that are encountered at cosmological scales and they could be used as a simple and efficient explanation for the recent experimental findings regarding the present day accelerating universe. In addition, new types of cosmological scale factors, corresponding to these fluids, are presented.

Parallel Arrangement

Recruitment and derecruitment (R/D) of air spaces within the lung is greatly enhanced in lung injury and is thought to be responsible for exacerbating injury during mechanical ventilation. There is evidence to suggest that R/D is a time-dependent phenomenon. We have developed a computer model of the lung consisting of a parallel arrangement of airways and alveolar units. Each airway has a critical pressure (Pcrit) above which it tends to open and below which it tends to close but at a rate determined by how far pressure is from Pcrit. With an appropriate distribution of Pcrit and R/D velocity characteristics, the model able to produce realistic first and second pressure-volume curves of a lung inflated from an initially degassed state. The model also predicts that lung elastance will increase transiently after a deep inflation to a degree that increases as lung volume decreases and as the lung becomes injured. We conclude that our model captures the time-dependent mechanical behavior of the lung due to gradual R/D of lung units.

AbstractAs part of a project to investigate the flow of ice at low effective stress, two independent strain-gauge systems were used to measure vertical strain rate as a function of depth and time at Siple Dome, Antarctica. The measurements were made from January 1998 until January 2002 at the ice divide and a site 7km to the northeast on the flank. The strain-rate profiles place constraints on the rheology of ice at low stress, show the expected differences between divide and flank flow (with some structure due to firn compaction and probably ice stratigraphy), and suggest that the flow of the ice sheet has not changed much in the last 8.6 kyr. The strain rates show an unexpected time dependence on scales ranging from several months to hours, including discrete summer events at the divide. Time dependence in strain rate, water pressure, seismicity, velocity and possibly basal motion has been seen previously on the Siple Coast ice streams, but it is especially surprising on Siple Dome because the bed is cold.

Load effects and resistance are supposed to constant in traditional reliability theory. In fact, load effects and resistances change with time because some influent factors of structures change in long working life. Thus, only structures are safe at every moment in working life are structures safe. A synthetical method of qualitative and quantitative analysis is proposed in this paper to study the time-dependence problem of a RC free beam. Firstly, the time-dependence character of a free beam is simulated by ANSYS program. Then, a time-dependent reliability model of the free beam is established, and a program is edited to get values of resistance and index of reliability in different years, thus, the time-dependent reliability of the RC free beam is assessed. The results showed that the value of the resistance decreased 20 percent and the reliability index cut half down after 50 years, so time-dependence should be considered to achieve correct results when the reliability of in-service structures is estimated and new structures are designed.

The time dependence of the single mode hexagonal magnetoconvective system has been investigated numerically at high Rayleigh number. It is established that, in certain parameter ranges, the system has oscillatory solutions which not only have a periodic nature, but also develop into chaotic and intermittent solutions. Further, the system generates nonzero mean kinetic and magnetic helicity together with substantial magnetic field amplification. These features are shown to be maintained in time without any externally imposed rotation of the system.

The ability to understand and predict excited state photophysics is vital for the development of photo- and electroluminescence materials, as well as light harvesting materials and photodynamic therapy. Herein, we demonstrate that single determinant time-dependent density functional theory can be computationally cost-effective and has the ability to explain both experimental singlet and triplet dynamics of pyrrolo[3,4-[Formula: see text]]pyrrole-1,4-dione and pyrrolo[3,2-b]pyrrole-2,5-dione isomers with intriguing photophysical properties. We also used the methodology to predict the photophysical properties of pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole-1,3-dione and a hypothetical hybrid pyrrolo[3,4-b]pyrrole-2,4-dione isomers.
