A study of free convection in air around horizontal cylinders of different diameters based on holographic interferometry. Temperature field equations…
2002
Abstract Holographic interferometry is used to study free convection in air around horizontal cylinders of different diameters and equal length, involving different surface temperatures, with the aim of defining the corresponding temperature fields. Interferograms were obtained to determine the temperature (T) of each point as well as its distance (x) from the surface of the cylinder. These values in turn made it possible to define functions (of an exponential nature in our case), T=f(x), that satisfactorily reproduced the temperature fields. Posteriorly, these functions were used to calculate the local convection coefficients, determining their dependency upon temperature and the direction…
Diffusion Process in Quasi-One-Dimensional Structures as Elements of Novel Nanodevices
2012
The effective diffusion coefficient in two-phase one-dimensional model with the periodical distribution of inclusions in the effective medium approximation is calculated and generalization about a quasi-one-dimensional case is formed.
Phototransition of Na(3p3/2) into high Rydberg states and the ionization continuum
2005
A model potential method is used to investigate photoabsorption from the Na(3p3/2) state. Absorption cross sections into higher Rydberg states and photoionization cross sections are presented as an analytical function of photo electron energy. Einstein coefficients for spontaneous emissions 3p3/2 ← ns1/2, nd5/2, nd3/2 are tabulated for n up to 50. The Einstein coefficients and low-energy ionization cross sections are believed to be accurate to better than 2–3%, above 1 eV the error may increase to 4–6%.
BoltzmaNN: Predicting effective pair potentials and equations of state using neural networks
2019
Neural networks (NNs) are employed to predict equations of state from a given isotropic pair potential using the virial expansion of the pressure. The NNs are trained with data from molecular dynamics simulations of monoatomic gases and liquids, sampled in the NVT ensemble at various densities. We find that the NNs provide much more accurate results compared to the analytic low-density limit estimate of the second virial coefficient and the Carnahan-Starling equation of state for hard sphere liquids. Furthermore, we design and train NNs for computing (effective) pair potentials from radial pair distribution functions, g(r), a task that is often performed for inverse design and coarse-graini…
A generalization of the Carnahan–Starling approach with applications to four- and five-dimensional hard spheres
2018
Abstract Development of good equations of state for hard spheres is an important task in the study of real fluids. In a way consistent with other theoretical results, we generalize the famous Carnahan–Starling approach for arbitrary dimensions and apply it to four- and five-dimensional hard spheres. We obtain simple and integer representations for virial coefficients of lower orders and accurate equations of state. Since theoretically and practically validated, these results improve understanding of hard sphere fluids.

m-bonacci metamaterial multilayers: location of the zero-average index bandgap edges
2009
We examine quasiperiodic multilayers arranged in m-bonacci sequences, which combine ordinary positiveindex materials and dispersive metamaterials with negative index in a certain frequency range. When the volume-averaged refractive index of the nonperiodic multilayer equals zero, the structure does not propagate light radiation and exhibits a forbidden band. We identify some analytical expressions to determine the upper and lower limits of the above zero-average refractive-index bandgap. We recognize that these limits are not explicitly dependent on the geometrical parameters of the stack of layers. © 2009 Optical Society of America. Fil: Monsoriu, J.A..

Diffusion in Flashing Periodic Potentials
2005
The one-dimensional overdamped Brownian motion in a symmetric periodic potential modulated by external time-reversible noise is analyzed. The calculation of the effective diffusion coefficient is reduced to the mean first passage time problem. We derive general equations to calculate the effective diffusion coefficient of Brownian particles moving in arbitrary supersymmetric potential modulated: (i) by external white Gaussian noise and (ii) by Markovian dichotomous noise. For both cases the exact expressions for the effective diffusion coefficient are derived. We obtain acceleration of diffusion in comparison with the free diffusion case for fast fluctuating potentials with arbitrary profil…
Isospin triplet A=14: search for states with enhanced radii
2020
Abstract This article is devoted to study of isobar-analogue states 1− in triplet A=14: 14C-14N-14O. Previously signs of neutron halo in the 1−, 6.09 MeV state of 14C were obtained by two independent groups. In this article we propose to study neighbouring nuclei 14N and 14O using the Modified diffraction model (MDM) method and the method of Asymptotic normalization coefficients (ANC). Methods were applied to experimental differential cross sections of 14C(α,α)14C scattering and reactions 13C(3He,d)14N and 14N(3He,t)14O. MDM and ANC gave practically similar within errors radii for the studied 1− states: the 6.09 MeV state in 14C – 2.7±0.1 fm, the 8.06 MeV state in 14N – 2.7 ± 0.1 fm, the 5.…
Testing the stage-discharge relationship of a sharp crested sluice gate deduced by the momentum equation for a free-flow condition
2018
Abstract In this paper the stage-discharge relationship of a sharp crested sluice gate is deduced by applying the momentum equation for a free flow condition. The theoretically deduced stage-discharge formula was then calibrated using experimental flume data obtained in previous investigations carried out for a free-flow condition. The deduced stage–discharge relationship is characterized by a momentum coefficient which is empirically estimated by the ratio between the height of the orifice and the water depth in the section upstream the gate. The relative errors are always less than or equal to - 10% to +10% and 71.4% of the errors are less than or equal to ± 2%.
