In this work, a thermodynamic model of CO2-H2O-NaCl-MgCO3 systems is developed. The new model is applicable for 0–200 °C, 1–1000 bar and halite concentration up to saturation. The Pitzer model is used to calculate aqueous species activity coefficients and the Peng–Robinson model is used to calculate fugacity coefficients of gaseous phase species. Non-linear equations of chemical potentials, mass conservation, and charge conservation are solved by successive substitution method to achieve phase existence, species molality, pH of water, etc., at equilibrium conditions. From the calculated results of CO2-H2O-NaCl-MgCO3 systems with the new model, it can be concluded that (1) temperature effects are different for different MgCO3 minerals; landfordite solubility increases with temperature; with temperature increasing, nesquehonite solubility decreases first and then increases at given pressure; (2) CO2 dissolution in water can significantly enhance the dissolution of MgCO3 minerals, while MgCO3 influences on CO2 solubility can be ignored; (3) MgCO3 dissolution in water will buffer the pH reduction due to CO2 dissolution.

Abstract We construct a pseudo-Lagrangian that is invariant under rigid E11 and transforms as a density under E11 generalised diffeomorphisms. The gauge-invariance requires the use of a section condition studied in previous work on E11 exceptional field theory and the inclusion of constrained fields that transform in an indecomposable E11-representation together with the E11 coset fields. We show that, in combination with gauge-invariant and E11-invariant duality equations, this pseudo-Lagrangian reduces to the bosonic sector of non-linear eleven-dimensional supergravity for one choice of solution to the section condi- tion. For another choice, we reobtain the E8 exceptional field theory and conjecture that our pseudo-Lagrangian and duality equations produce all exceptional field theories with maximal supersymmetry in any dimension. We also describe how the theory entails non-linear equations for higher dual fields, including the dual graviton in eleven dimensions. Furthermore, we speculate on the relation to the E10 sigma model.

Pseudo quad polarimetric (quad-pol) image reconstruction from the hybrid dual-pol (or compact polarimetric (CP)) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery is a category of important techniques for radar polarimetric applications. There are three key aspects concerned in the literature for the reconstruction methods, i.e., the scattering symmetric assumption, the reconstruction model, and the solving approach of the unknowns. Since CP measurements depend on the CP mode configurations, different reconstruction procedures were designed when the transmit wave varies, which means the reconstruction procedures were not unified. In this study, we propose a unified reconstruction framework for the general CP mode, which is applicable to the mode with an arbitrary transmitted ellipse wave. The unified reconstruction procedure is based on the formalized CP descriptors. The general CP symmetric scattering model-based three-component decomposition method is also employed to fit the reconstruction model parameter. Finally, a least squares (LS) estimation method, which was proposed for the linear π/4 CP data, is extended for the arbitrary CP mode to estimate the solution of the system of non-linear equations. Validation is carried out based on polarimetric data sets from both RADARSAT-2 (C-band) and ALOS-2/PALSAR (L-band), to compare the performances of reconstruction models, methods, and CP modes.

Tire yaw marks deposited on the road surface carry a lot of information of paramount importance for the analysis of vehicle accidents. They can be used: (a) in a macro-scale for establishing the vehicle’s positions and orientation as well as an estimation of the vehicle’s speed at the start of yawing; (b) in a micro-scale for inferring among others things the braking or acceleration status of the wheels from the topology of the striations forming the mark. A mathematical model of how the striations will appear has been developed. The model is universal, i.e., it applies to a tire moving along any trajectory with variable curvature, and it takes into account the forces and torques which are calculated by solving a system of non-linear equations of vehicle dynamics. It was validated in the program developed by the author, in which the vehicle is represented by a 36 degree of freedom multi-body system with the TMeasy tire model. The mark-creating model shows good compliance with experimental data. It gives a deep view of the nature of striated yaw marks’ formation and can be applied in any program for the simulation of vehicle dynamics with any level of simplification.

Sophomore students from the Chemical Engineering undergraduate Degree at the University of Salamanca are involved in a Mathematics course during the third semester and in an Engineering Thermodynamics course during the fourth one. When they participate in the latter they are already familiar with mathematical software and mathematical concepts about numerical methods, including non-linear equations, interpolation or differential equations. We have focused this study on the way engineering students learn Mathematics and Engineering Thermodynamics. As students use to learn each matter separately and do not associate Mathematics and Physics, they separate each matter into different and independent compartments. We have proposed an experience to increase the interrelationship between different subjects, to promote transversal skills, and to make the subjects closer to real work. The satisfactory results of the experience are exposed in this work. Moreover, we have analyzed the results obtained in both courses during the academic year 2018–2019. We found that there is a relation between both courses and student’s final marks do not depend on the course.

AbstractA generalization of the usual method of similarity analysis of differential equations, the method of partially invariant solutions, was introduced by Ovsiannikov. The degree of non-invariance of these solutions is characterized by the defect of invariance d. We develop an algorithm leading to partially invariant solutions of quasilinear systems of first-order partial differential equations. We apply the algorithm to the non-linear equations of the two-dimensional non-stationary ideal MHD with a magnetic field perpendicular to the plane of motion.

AbstractThe motive of the present work is to introduce and investigate the quadratically convergent Newton’s like method for solving the non-linear equations. We have studied some new properties of a Newton’s like method with examples and obtained a derivative-free globally convergent Newton’s like method using forward difference operator and bisection method. Finally, we have used various numerical test functions along with their fractal patterns to show the utility of the proposed method. These patterns support the numerical results and explain the compactness regarding the convergence, divergence and stability of the methods to different roots.
