We present dynamical density functional theory results for the time evolution of the density distribution of a sedimenting model two-dimensional binary mixture of colloids. The interplay between the bulk phase behaviour of the mixture, its interfacial properties at the confining walls, and the gravitational field gives rise to a rich variety of equilibrium and non-equilibrium morphologies. In t...

We consider a two-fluid compressible flow. Each fluid obeys a stiffened gas pressure law. The continuous model is well defined without considering mixture regions. However, for numerical applications it is often necessary to consider artificial mixtures, because the two-fluid interface is diffused by the numerical scheme. We show that classic pressure law interpolations lead to a non-convex hyp...

This is a continuation of the paper [4] of Bleher and Fokin, in which the large n asymptotics is obtained for the partition function Zn of the six-vertex model with domain wall boundary conditions in the disordered phase. In the present paper we obtain the large n asymptotics of Zn in the ferroelectric phase. We prove that for any ε > 0, as n → ∞, Zn = CG nFn 2 [1+O(e−n 1−ε )], and we find the ...

We propose an English-Chinese name transliteration system using a maximum N-gram Hidden Markov Model. To handle special challenges with alphabet-based and characterbased language pair, we apply a two-phase transliteration model by building two HMM models, one between English and Chinese Pinyin and another between Chinese Pinyin and Chinese characters. Our model improves traditional HMM by assig...

In this research, two different carbonaceous materials (Graphite:G and Petrocoke:P) were separately compared in terms of the carbothermic reduction of hematite and anatase in order to synthesize Fe-TiC nanocrystalline composite by mechanically activated sintering method. Powders were activated in a planetary high-energy ball mill under argon atmosphere for 0, 2, 5, ...

A Two-phase model for configuring a cellular manufacturing system is proposed. In phase (I), for the first time, number of cells is considered as a decision variable. In phase (II), pursing two different objectives, one minimization of underload and the other, maximization of similarity of parts within a group, the design procedure is performed. As one cannot have these two objects together, a ...
