Statistical analysis of high-speed jet flows
The spatiotemporal dynamics of pressure fluctuations of a turbulent jet flow is examined from the viewpoints of symbolic permutations theory and Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistics. The methods are applied to unveil hidden structures in the near-field of the two jets corresponding to the NASA SHJAR SP3 and SP7 experiments. Large Eddy Simulations (LES) are performed using the high-resolution Compact Accurately Boundary-Adjusting high-REsolution Technique (CABARET) accelerated on Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). It is demonstrated that the decomposition of the LES pressure solutions into symbolic patterns of simpler temporal structure reveals the existence of some orderly structures in the jet flows. To separate the non-linear dynamics of the revealed structures from the linear part, the results based on the pressure signals obtained from LES are compared with the surrogate dataset constructed from the original data
QSPR modeling for enthalpies of formation of organometallic compounds by means of SMILES-based optimal descriptors
Organometallic compounds are an important class of chemicals, because many of them have vital biochemical features. There are studies on the quantitative structure-property/activity relationships (QSPR/QSAR) for organic substances [1-5], but only a few articles have deal with QSPR for organometallic compounds Simplified molecular input line entry system (SMILES) [9-13] has been used as an alternative for molecular graphs in the QSPR/QSAR analyses SMILES-based optimal descriptors were calculated a
Quantum corrections to the conductivity and Hall coefficient of a 2D electron gas in a dirty AlGaAs/GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well: transition from diffusive to ballistic regime
We report an experimental study of the quantum corrections to the
longitudinal conductivity and the Hall coefficient of a low mobility, high
density two-dimensional two-dimensional electron gas in a AlGaAs/GaAs/AlGaAs
quantum well in a wide temperature range (1.5 K - 110 K). This temperature
range covers both the diffusive and the ballistic interaction regimes for our
samples. It was therefore possible to study the crossover region for the
longitudinal conductivity and the Hall effect
Resonant spin-dependent electron coupling in a III-V/II-VI heterovalent double quantum well
We report on design, fabrication, and magnetooptical studies of a III-V/II-VI
hybrid structure containing a GaAs/AlGaAs/ZnSe/ZnCdMnSe double quantum well
(QW). The structure design allows one to tune the QW levels into the resonance,
thus facilitating penetration of the electron wave function from the diluted
magnetic semiconductor ZnCdMnSe QW into the nonmagnetic GaAs QW and vice versa.
Magneto-photoluminescence studies demonstrate level anticrossing and strong
intermixing resulting in a drastic renormalization of the electron effective g
factor, in perfect agreement with the energy level calculations.Comment: 4 pages, 5 Postscript figures, uses revtex
Application of Genetic Programming and Artificial Neural Network Approaches for Reconstruction of Turbulent Jet Flow Fields
Two Machine Learning (ML) methods are considered for reconstruction of turbulet signals corresponding to
the Large Eddy Simulation database obtained by application of the high-resolution CABARET method accelerated on GPU cards for flow solutions of NASA Small Hot Jet Acoustic Rig (SHJAR) jets. The first method is the Feedforward Neural Networks technique, which was successfully implemented for a turbulent flow over a plunging aerofoil in (Lui and Wolf, 2019). The second method is based on the application of Genetic Programming, which is well-known in optimisation research, but has not been applied for turbulent flow reconstruction before. The reconstruction of local flow velocity and pressure signals as well as timedependent principle coefficients of the Spectral Proper Orthogonal Decomposition of turbulent pressure fluctuations are considered. Stability and dependency of the ML algorithms on the smoothness property and the sampling rate of the underlying turbulent flow signals are discussed
Multifractal analysis of stress time series during ultrathin lubricant film melting
Melting of an ultrathin lubricant film confined between two atomically flat
surfaces is we studied using the rheological model for viscoelastic matter
approximation. Phase diagram with domains, corresponding to sliding, dry, and
two types of friction regimes has been built taking into account
additive noises of stress, strain, and temperature of the lubricant. The stress
time series have been obtained for all regimes of friction using the
Stratonovich interpretation. It has been shown that self-similar regime of
lubricant melting is observed when intensity of temperature noise is much
larger than intensities of strain and stress noises. This regime is defined by
homogenous distribution, at which characteristic stress scale is absent. We
study stress time series obtained for all friction regimes using multifractal
detrended fluctuation analysis. It has been shown that multifractality of these
series is caused by different correlations that are present in the system and
also by a power-law distribution. Since the power-law distribution is related
to small stresses, this case corresponds to self-similar solid-like lubricant.Comment: 22 pages, 10 figures, 41 reference
MATHEMATICAL MODELING OF ROCK CRUSHING AND MULTIPHASE FLOW OF DRILLING FLUID IN WELL DRILLING
The aim of the work is a mathematical modeling of the rock crushing during drilling and removal of the drilling cuttings (sludge) to the surface by drilling fluid. The process of rock destruction is described using the mathematical theory of fragmentation. The distribution of sludge particles in size and mass depends on such factors as the properties of the drilled rock, the rate of penetration, the type of bit, and the output power. After the formation of sludge, the process of its removal to the surface is modeled. The drilling fluid together with the rock particles is considered as a heterogeneous multiphase medium in which the carrier phase – the drilling fluid – is a non-Newtonian fluid. The flow of such a medium is described using a mixture model in the framework of the multi-fluid approach. This results in a system of nonlinear partial differential equations, for which a new closure relation is derived. To solve the system, the SIMPLE algorithm is used. As a result, the flow properties are studied with the inclusion of particles of various sizes. In particular, for particles of small size due to the action of plastic stresses in a non-Newtonian drilling fluid, an equilibrium mode arises in which the particles move with the drilling fluid without slipping. This is the fastest mode of delivery of sludge to the surface. The specific dimensions of such particles depend on the parameters of the drilling process. In particular, the appropriate size range can be adjusted by changing the parameters of the drilling fluid
