AbstractFission barriers of actinides are calculated in the framework of the macroscopic-microscopic method. The single particle energies are obtained within a new version of the Woods-Saxon two-center shell model. A nuclear shape parametrization characterized by five degrees of freedom is used. The barriers are calculated along the minimal action trajectory in the configuration space and the inertia is evaluated within the cranking formalism. The reliability of the model is tested by comparing the theoretical results with values deduced from experimental data.

The spin and parity of the excited state and the ground state of nuclei are two of important properties of the nuclei quantum. However, up to now we do not have appropriate equipments to directly detetmine the spin and parity of nuclei. This paper shows the application of nuclear shell model to study the spin and parity of intermediate levels and ground state of 59Fe nucleus. Comparing to previously experimental data, this nucleus singleparticle model is suitable of the average mass and odd A nuclei.

The macroscopic-microscopic method is applied to calculate the energies of heavy nuclei (A>220) in a multidimensional deformation space {αλ,μ} including axial and non-axial quadrupole (λ=2,μ=0,2), axial and non-axial octupole (λ=3,μ=0,2) and axial hexadecapole (λ=4,μ=0) degrees of freedom. Shell and pairing corrections are calculated from the single-particle energies of the Woods-Saxon potential with the universal parameters and added to the macroscopic energy of the newest Lublin-Strasbourg Drop (LSD) model to obtain the total deformation energy.

Effects of the parity-mixed single-particle (s.p.) state on the collective properties of odd nuclei with reflection-asymmetric degrees of freedom are studied. The Coriolis strength and the average s.p. parity in the nuclei 219 Ra , 225 Ra , 225 Th and 241 Cm are examined in dependence on axial quadrupole and octupole deformation parameters β2 and β3 within a reflection-asymmetric deformed shell model. The obtained behaviour of the Coriolis decoupling factor in the (β2, β3)-plane is compared with values fitted in a collective quadrupole-octupole model, which allows one to determine physically reasonable deformation regions for the considered nuclei. The study provides a relation between deformation parameters, Coriolis interaction strength and the structure of collective spectra in odd-mass nuclei with quadrupole-octupole deformations.

We present an attempt to describe low lying quadrupole collective excitations within the frame of the RMF theory. Single particle wavefunctions obtained from the RMF are used to calculate mass parameters in the cranking approximation of the ATDHFB. The general Bohr hamiltonian with the calculated mass parameters yields collective energies and wavefunctions. Theoretical results are compared with the experimental data in the case of the γ soft 110 Ru and 126 Ba nuclei.

In the present work, the nuclear shell model with Hartree–Fock (HF) calculations have been used to investigate the nuclear structure of 24Mg nucleus. Particularly, elastic and inelastic electron scattering form factors and transition probabilities have been calculated for low-lying positive and negative states. The sd and sdpf shell model spaces have been used to calculate the one-body density matrix elements (OBDM) for positive and negative parity states respectively. Skyrme-Hartree-Fock (SHF) with different parameterizations has been tested with shell model calculation as a single particle potential for reproducing the experimental data along with a harmonic oscillator (HO) and Woods-Saxon (WS) single-particle potentials. The effect of the nuclear effective charge has been implemented via using different folding models; valance, Tassie and Bohr-Mottelson. The evaluated results have been discussed and compared with available experimental data.

The spin-tensor decomposition is employed to construct a new interaction, named CKHeN, for 0p-shell. This new interaction is used to calculate the ekective single-particle energies of π0p1/2 and π0p1/2orbitals in Li isotopes, and the level structures of 7,8,9Li isotopes. The calculated level structures are found in good agreement with experimental data.

Without access to the full quantum state, modeling quantum transport in mesoscopic systems requires dealing with a limited number of degrees of freedom. In this work, we analyze the possibility of modeling the perturbation induced by non-simulated degrees of freedom on the simulated ones as a transition between single-particle pure states. First, we show that Bohmian conditional wave functions (BCWFs) allow for a rigorous discussion of the dynamics of electrons inside open quantum systems in terms of single-particle time-dependent pure states, either under Markovian or non-Markovian conditions. Second, we discuss the practical application of the method for modeling light–matter interaction phenomena in a resonant tunneling device, where a single photon interacts with a single electron. Third, we emphasize the importance of interpreting such a scattering mechanism as a transition between initial and final single-particle BCWF with well-defined central energies (rather than with well-defined central momenta).

In this study, the three-dimensional (3D) asymmetric maximum weight lifting is predicted using an inverse-dynamics-based optimization method considering dynamic joint torque limits. The dynamic joint torque limits are functions of joint angles and angular velocities, and imposed on the hip, knee, ankle, wrist, elbow, shoulder, and lumbar spine joints. The 3D model has 40 degrees of freedom (DOFs) including 34 physical revolute joints and 6 global joints. A multi-objective optimization (MOO) problem is solved by simultaneously maximizing box weight and minimizing the sum of joint torque squares. A total of 12 male subjects were recruited to conduct maximum weight box lifting using squat-lifting strategy. Finally, the predicted lifting motion, ground reaction forces, and maximum lifting weight are validated with the experimental data. The prediction results agree well with the experimental data and the model’s predictive capability is demonstrated. This is the first study that uses MOO to predict maximum lifting weight and 3D asymmetric lifting motion while considering dynamic joint torque limits. The proposed method has the potential to prevent individuals’ risk of injury for lifting.

In this paper, the requirements for an accurate 3D model of the tooth contact-line load distribution in real spur gears are summarized. The theoretical results (obtained by F.E.M.) for the point load compliance of wide-faced spur gear teeth are set out. These values compare well with experimental data obtained from tests on a large spur gear (18 mm module, 18 teeth).

According to several known experiments, an increase of the incoming flow air content can increase the hydrofoil lift coefficient. The presented theoretical study shows that such increase is associated with the decrease of the fluid density at the cavity surface. This decrease is caused by entrainment of air bubbles to the cavity from the surrounding flow. The theoretical results based on such explanation are in a good agreement with the earlier published experimental data for NACA0015.
