The entanglement evolution of a pair of two-level systems is studied in this paper. The two systems without mutual interaction are independently coupled to different two-band non-Markovian environments. By comparing our results to others in the literature, we find that taking one of the Bell states as the initial state, certain non-Markovian effect protects the entanglement in short time scale, while on long time scale it leads to the entanglement sudden death (ESD), which never occurs for this initial state in the Markovian case. Finally, by analyzing the parameters in our model, a relation between disentanglement and decoherence is established and discussed.

Abstract Uniformly stratified flows approaching long and dynamically tall ridges develop two distinct flow components over disparate time scales. The fluid upstream and below a “blocking level” is stagnant in the limit of an infinite ridge and flows around the sides when the ridge extent is finite. The streamwise half-width of the obstacle at the blocking level arises as a natural inner length scale for the flow, while the excursion time over this half-width is an associated short time scale for the streamwise flow evolution. Over a longer time scale, low-level horizontal flow splitting leads to the establishment of an upstream layerwise potential flow beneath the blocking level. We demonstrate through numerical experiments that for sufficiently long ridges, crest control and streamwise asymmetry are seen on both the short and long time scales. On the short time scale, upstream blocking is established quickly and the flow is well described as a purely infinite-ridge overflow. Over the long time scale associated with flow splitting, low-level flow escapes around the sides, but the overflow continues to be hydraulically controlled and streamwise asymmetric in the neighborhood of the crest. We quantify this late-time overflow by estimating its volumetric transport and then briefly demonstrate how this approach can be extended to predict the overflow across nonuniform ridge shapes.

The physics explored in this investigation enables short-time scale dynamic phenomenon to be correlated with package failure modes such as solder ball cracking and interlayer debond. It is found that although epoxy-based underfills with nanofillers are shown to be effective in alleviating thermal stresses and improving solder joint fatigue performance in thermal cycling tests of long-time scale, underfill material viscoelasticity is ineffective in attenuating short-time scale propagating shock waves. In addition, the inclusion of Cu interconnecting layers in flip chip area arrays is found to perform significantly better than Al layers in suppressing short-time scale effects. Results reported herein suggest that, if improved flip chip reliability is to be achieved, the compositions of all packaging constituent materials need be formulated to have well-defined short-time scale and long-time scale properties. Chip level circuit design layout also needs be optimized to either discourage or negate short-time wave propagation. The knowledge base established is generally applicable to high performance package configurations of small footprint and high clock speed. The approach along with the numerical procedures developed for the investigation can be a practical tool for realizing better device reliability and thus high manufacturing yield.

Interactions using various sensory cues produce sophisticated behaviour in animal swarms, e.g. the foraging behaviour of ants and the flocking of birds and fish. Here, we investigate the behavioural mechanisms of frog choruses from the viewpoints of mathematical modelling and its application. Empirical data on male Japanese tree frogs demonstrate that (1) neighbouring male frogs avoid call overlaps with each other over a short time scale and (2) they collectively switch between the calling state and the silent state over a long time scale. To reproduce these features, we propose a mathematical model in which separate dynamical models spontaneously switch due to a stochastic process depending on the internal dynamics of respective frogs and also the interactions among the frogs. Next, the mathematical model is applied to the control of a wireless sensor network in which multiple sensor nodes send a data packet towards their neighbours so as to deliver the packet to a gateway node by multi-hop communication. Numerical simulation demonstrates that (1) neighbouring nodes can avoid a packet collision over a short time scale by alternating the timing of data transmission and (2) all the nodes collectively switch their states over a long time scale, establishing high network connectivity while reducing network power consumption. Consequently, this study highlights the unique dynamics of frog choruses over multiple time scales and also provides a novel bio-inspired technology that is applicable to the control of a wireless sensor network.

In present paper we show results of ball-on-disk wear experiment of MoS2 film deposited on Ti6Al4V substrate. The ball materials is aluminum oxide. The tests are performed for different surrounding temperature conditions: 20 oC, 200 oC and 350 oC. It is shown that depth of the wear groove increases with increasing surrounding temperature. A finite element modeling approach is next developed to mimic the experimental observations of ball-on-disk wear process. It is based on the assumption of steady state condition developed during short time scale at contact region. The steady state results can next be applied to long time scale in which wear process is numerically simulated. Model results are compared with experimentally obtained wear groove and show satisfactory agreement.

Integrated information theory (IIT) was initially proposed to describe human consciousness in terms of intrinsic-causal brain network structures. Particularly, IIT 3.0 targets the system’s cause–effect structure from spatio-temporal grain and reveals the system’s irreducibility. In a previous study, we tried to apply IIT 3.0 to an actual collective behaviour in Plecoglossus altivelis. We found that IIT 3.0 exhibits qualitative discontinuity between three and four schools of fish in terms of Φ value distributions. Other measures did not show similar characteristics. In this study, we followed up on our previous findings and introduced two new factors. First, we defined the global parameter settings to determine a different kind of group integrity. Second, we set several timescales (from Δ t = 5 / 120 to Δ t = 120 / 120 s). The results showed that we succeeded in classifying fish schools according to their group sizes and the degree of group integrity around the reaction time scale of the fish, despite the small group sizes. Compared with the short time scale, the interaction heterogeneity observed in the long time scale seems to diminish. Finally, we discuss one of the longstanding paradoxes in collective behaviour, known as the heap paradox, for which two tentative answers could be provided through our IIT 3.0 analysis.

The purpose of this study is to improve the knowledge about the core behavior of a sodium fast breeder reactor (Na-FBR) through the fluid-structure interaction analysis during vibrations of short time scale (shutdown of Phénix reactor) as well as long time scale (earthquakes for ASTRID Project). We designed a test-rig, PISE-1a, composed by one hexagonal assembly enclosed by an hexagonal containment with a narrow gap. The experimental test-rig PISE-1a is used to determine the dynamic characteristics of the assembly, to calibrate instrumentation and for validating our numerical model. Free vibration experiments in water allow to assess the added mass and added damping effect on the frequency. The fluid flow is affected by a 3D effect — named down-stroke flow — at the top and the base of the assembly. This effect produces a higher frequency than the 2D theoretical value. Investigation on this phenomena are provided by PIV methodology, which allows to show the displacement of the fluid as predicted by the theoretical analysis.

Recently Anzer (1978) has discussed a model for the motion of transients in the high corona. In this model the transient is pictured as a circular current loop with a changing radius r, and having two fixed footpoints separated by a distance 2r0at the solar surface. The transient starts off with zero velocity at the point where r = r0. At that point however the acceleration, which is given byis generally non-zero. In (1) M⊙is the solar mass; G is the gravitational constant; b (which equals a/4, where a was introduced by Anzer (1978)) is a constant on a short time scale, which however may change on a long time scale when mass or electric current is supplied to or lost by the system; f is a function describing the distribution of mass and magnetic flux, qualitatively displayed in Figure la; R is the distance of the top of the current circuit to the solar center; r2/R2as a function of R is shown in Figure lb.
