It is shown that the formation of the so-called rotator phase of alkanes (one of the high temperature crystalline phases) might be connected with a partial increase of the conformational flexibility of chains. The conformations with higher number of kinks per chain, which have been neglected till now, are shown to contribute effectively to the conformational partition function. Small probability of these states given by the Boltzmann exponent is compensated by a large number of ways in which they can be distributed along the chain. The deduced features of the rotator phase seem to be in agreement with the experimentally observed properties.

AbstractUniqueness of parabolic Cauchy problems is nowadays a classical problem and since Hadamard [Lectures on Cauchy’s Problem in Linear Partial Differential Equations, Dover, New York, 1953], these kind of problems are known to be ill-posed and even severely ill-posed. Until now, there are only few partial results concerning the quantification of the stability of parabolic Cauchy problems. We bring in the present work an answer to this issue for smooth solutions under the minimal condition that the domain is Lipschitz.

By using differential equations with discontinuous right-hand sides, a dynamic model for vector-borne infectious disease under the discontinuous removal of infected trees was established after understanding the transmission mechanism of Huanglongbing (HLB) disease in citrus trees. Through calculation, the basic reproductive number of the model can be attained and the properties of the model are discussed. On this basis, the existence and global stability of the calculated equilibria are verified. Moreover, it was found that different I0 in the control strategy cannot change the dynamic properties of HLB disease. However, the lower the value of I0, the fewer HLB-infected citrus trees, which provides a theoretical basis for controlling HLB disease and reducing expenditure.
