We have investigated the temperature dependence of the optical conductivity of GdRu4P12, which shows an antiferromagnetic ordering below TN 1⁄4 22K. Above TN, the optical conductivity spectra exhibit a Drude-like feature due to the free carriers. However, below TN a new peak was found to develop around 30meV in addition to the narrowing of the Drude component. We assigned this peak to the elect...

Numerical simulation of structural response is a challenging issue in earthquake engineering and there has been remarkable progress in this area in the last decade. Endurance Time (ET) method is a new response history based analysis procedure for seismic assessment and structural design in which structures are subjected to a gradually intensifying dynamic excitation and their seismic performanc...

In this paper, a nonconforming mixed finite element method is studied for semilinear pseudo-hyperbolic partial integrodifferential equations. By use of the interpolation technique instead of the generalized elliptic projection, the optimal error estimates of the corresponding unknown function are given. Keywords—Pseudo-hyperbolic partial integro-differential equations; Nonconforming mixed eleme...

The pseudo-rapidity dependence of the elliptic flow at various excitation energies measured by the PHOBOS Collaboration in Au+Au collisions at RHIC is one of the surprising results that has not been explained before in terms of hydrodynamical models. Here we show that these data are in agreement with theoretical predictions and satisfy the universal scaling relation predicted by the Buda-Lund h...

We report results on chemical wave propagation obtained from experiments with a modified Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction. Under pseudo-onedimensional reaction conditions, excitation pulses either form closely stacked, stable wavepackets or merge with a slow leading pulse in front-to-back collisions. Moreover, wave stacking can involve the cascading formation of metastable clusters. These phenomen...

This paper describes electrical equivalent circuit models of cell–capillary admittance during injection of a living cell and presents a measurement system to estimate corresponding frequency responses during microinjection tests. Since the admittance estimate is calculated from data collected during injection, the amount of data is limited. To overcome this constraint, the approach proposed in ...

Abstract With the increasingly complex combat environment and diversity of tasks, important military targets are surrounded by multi-layer defense. Modern information warfare pays more attention to system confrontation multi-system cooperative operations,and missile formation attack is main research content this paper. For wing ideal trajectory generation problems, ensure Angle time meet design...

The pseudo-rapidity dependence of the elliptic flow at various excitation energies measured by the PHOBOS Collaboration in Au+Au collisions at RHIC is one of the surprising results that has not been explained before in terms of hydrodynamical models. Here we show that these data are in agreement with theoretical predictions based on perfect fluid hydrodynamics. We also show that these PHOBOS da...

Correlation effects in nuclear matter at finite temperatures are studied for subnuclear densities (ρ < ρ0) and medium excitation energy, where a nonrelativistic potential approach is possible. A quantum statistical approach is given, where clusters are treated under the influence of a clustered medium treated within a mean field approximation. Spectral functions, in-medium cross sections, and r...

We describe a simple setup that allows depth of field switching at kilohertz rates in a nonlinear microscope. Beam profile and/or divergence are modulated using a tunable, acoustically driven gradient-index fluid lens. We demonstrate two modulation strategies, one based on fast varifocus scanning during each pixel and the other based on pseudo-Bessel beam excitation. Average beam shape is switc...
