A Petri net simulation model for virtual construction of earthmoving operations
A common and extended Petri net simulation framework for virtual construction of earthmoving operations is developed to simulate dynamic changes of workflow and information flow in the earthmoving construction process and illustrate the constraint relationship between various operational equipment and construction restrictions. The proposed framework considers factors that influence earthmoving operations including randomness of construction activities, individual preference of equipment scheduling, and constraint relationship between equipment and construction environment. With the given equipment availability and project indirect cost, the framework can predict construction situation, equipment utilization rate, estimated duration and cost to achieve visualized and intelligent scheduling of virtual construction process in earthmoving operations. The simulation process is conducted on the CPNTools platform. The data required by the research were collected on-site in an actual case. The randomness of construction activities in earthmoving operations and main factors influencing construction are simulated. The sensitivity analysis for the model is carried out. The study will provide technical support and a management basis for equipment scheduling of earthmoving operations
Effect of Tensor Correlations on Gamow-Teller States in 90Zr and 208Pb
The tensor terms of the Skyrme effective interaction are included in the
self-consistent Hartree-Fock plus Random Phase Approximation (HF+RPA) model.
The Gamow-Teller (GT) strength function of 90Zr and 208Pb are calculated with
and without the tensor terms. The main peaks are moved downwards by about 2 MeV
when including the tensor contribution. About 10% of the non-energy weighted
sum rule is shifted to the excitation energy region above 30 MeV by the RPA
tensor correlations. The contribution of the tensor terms to the energy
weighted sum rule is given analytically, and compared to the outcome of RPA.Comment: 13 pages, 2 figures,2 table
Spin-isospin excitations as quantitative constraints for the tensor force
Gamow-Teller (GT) and charge-exchange spin-dipole (SD) excitation energies in 90Zr and 208Pb are systematically studied to determine the appropriate magnitude of the tensor terms of the Skyrme interactions. We have found that the centroid energies of GT and SD excitations are sensitive to the adopted strengths of the triplet-even and triplet-odd tensor interactions. Especially, the 1- SD state plays a crucial role in constraining the triplet-even part while the triplet-odd part is related rather to the GT peaks. Among the 36 TIJ parameter sets that include nonperturbatively the tensor terms, the four sets, T21, T32, T43, and T54, give reasonable results for the centroid energies in comparison with the experimental data. The sign and magnitude of the tensor terms are also discussed when these terms are added to the existing Skyrme interactions SGII and SLy5. The triplet-even strength can be constrained in a narrow range by using the available experimental data while further empirical data are needed to set a constraint on the triplet-odd term
Low-energy Collective Gamow-Teller States and Isoscalar Pairing Interaction
The Gamow-Teller (GT) strength distributions and isobaric analog resonance (IAR) states of several N=Z+2 nuclei with mass number A=42\u201358 are studied by using a self-consistent Skyrme Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov method plus quasiparticle random phase approximation (HFB+QRPA) formalism. The isoscalar spin-triplet pairing interaction is included in QRPA on top of the isovector spin-singlet one in the HFB method. It is found that the isoscalar pairing correlations mix largely the (\u3bdj>\u2192\u3c0j<) configurations into the low-energy states, and this mixing plays an important role in the formation and in the collectivity of these low-energy states. Furthermore, the observed excitation energy of the low-energy GT state with respect to the IAR can be well reproduced when the strength of isoscalar pairing is about 1.0\u20131.05 times that of the isovector pairing, irrespective of the adopted Skyrme interactions. In N=Z+2 nuclei in the middle of the pf-shell, a mutual cooperative effect of isoscalar pairing and tensor interaction is found; namely, the tensor force reduces the spin-orbit splittings and enhances the effect of the isoscalar pairing

Observation of Two New N* Peaks in J/psi -> and Decays
The system in decays of is limited to be
isospin 1/2 by isospin conservation. This provides a big advantage in studying
compared with and experiments which mix
isospin 1/2 and 3/2 for the system. Using 58 million decays
collected with the Beijing Electron Positron Collider, more than 100 thousand
events are obtained. Besides two well known
peaks at 1500 MeV and 1670 MeV, there are two new, clear peaks in
the invariant mass spectrum around 1360 MeV and 2030 MeV. They are the
first direct observation of the peak and a long-sought "missing"
peak above 2 GeV in the invariant mass spectrum. A simple
Breit-Wigner fit gives the mass and width for the peak as MeV and MeV, and for the new peak above 2 GeV
as MeV and MeV, respectively
A Measurement of Psi(2S) Resonance Parameters
Cross sections for e+e- to hadons, pi+pi- J/Psi, and mu+mu- have been
measured in the vicinity of the Psi(2S) resonance using the BESII detector
operated at the BEPC. The Psi(2S) total width; partial widths to hadrons,
pi+pi- J/Psi, muons; and corresponding branching fractions have been determined
to be Gamma(total)= (264+-27) keV; Gamma(hadron)= (258+-26) keV, Gamma(mu)=
(2.44+-0.21) keV, and Gamma(pi+pi- J/Psi)= (85+-8.7) keV; and Br(hadron)=
(97.79+-0.15)%, Br(pi+pi- J/Psi)= (32+-1.4)%, Br(mu)= (0.93+-0.08)%,
respectively.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figure

Observation of the decay \psip\rar\kstark
Using 14 million events collected with the BESII detector,
branching fractions of \psip\rar\kstarkpm and \kstarknn are determined to
be: \calB(\psip\rar\kstarkpm)=(2.9^{+1.3}_{-1.7}\pm0.4)\times 10^{-5} and
\calB(\psip\rar\kstarknn)=(13.3^{+2.4}_{-2.7}\pm1.9)\times 10^{-5}. The
results confirm the violation of the "12%" rule for these two decay channels
with higher precision. A large isospin violation between the charged and
neutral modes is observed.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figure
