A ReaxFF potential for Al–ZnO systems
Authors: Brown I , Smith R , Kenny S D 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
A reactive field force potential has been created in order to model the structural effects of low percentage dopant aluminium in a zinc oxide (ZnO) system. The potential’s parameters were fitted to configurations computed with density functional theory: binding energies were considered for surface structures and for Al in ZnO bulk crystals. Energies for Zn–Al alloys were also considered. Forces were fit to zero for all equilibrium structures and were also fitted for some non-equilibrium structures. As a first application of the model, the energetic deposition (0.1–40 eV) of an aluminium atom onto the polar surface of a ZnO

is considered. For low energies the Al atom attaches to two preferred sites on the surface but as the energy increases above ≈15 eV subplantation is preferred at near normal incidence, with high diffusion barriers between stable sites. At these energies, reflection of the Al atom occurs at incident angles above

A new method for high resolution curvature measurement applied to stress monitoring in thin ﬁlms
Authors: Grachev Sergey , Hérault Quentin , Wang Jun , Balestrieri Matteo , Montigaud Hervé , Lazzari Remi , Gozhyk Iryna 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
By combining the well-known grid reﬂection method with a digital image correlation algorithm and a geometrical optics model, a new method is proposed for measuring the change of curvature of a smooth reﬂecting substrate, a common reporter of stress state of deposited layers. This tool, called Pattern Reﬂection for Mapping of Curvature (PReMC), can be easily implemented for the analysis of the residual stress during deposition processes and is suﬃciently accurate to follow the compressivetensile-compressive stress transition during the sputtering growth of a Ag ﬁlm on a Si substrate. Unprecedented resolution below 10-5m-1can be reached when measuring a homogeneous curvature. A comparison with the conventional laser-based tool is also provided in terms of dynamical range and resolution. In addition, the method is capable of mapping local variations in the case of a non-uniform curvature as illustrated by the case of a non-homogeneous Mo ﬁlm under high compressive stress. PReMC oﬀers interesting perspectives for in situ accurate stress monitoring in the ﬁeld of thin ﬁlm growth.

Abstract

Objective. To achieve fast magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) at a low frequency for better shear modulus estimation of the brain. Approach. We proposed a multiphase radial DENSE MRE (MRD-MRE) sequence and an improved GRASP algorithm utilizing the sparsity of the harmonic motion (SH-GRASP) for fast MRE at 20 Hz. For the MRD-MRE sequence, the initial position encoded by spatial modulation of magnetization (SPAMM) was decoded by an arbitrary number of readout blocks without increasing the number of phase offsets. Based on the harmonic motion, a modified total variation and temporal Fourier transform were introduced to utilize the sparsity in the temporal domain. Both phantom and brain experiments were carried out and compared with that from multiphase Cartesian DENSE-MRE (MCD-MRE), and conventional gradient echo sequence (GRE-MRE). Reconstruction performance was also compared with GRASP and compressed sensing. Main results. Results showed the scanning time of a fully sampled image with four phase offsets for MRD-MRE was only 1/5 of that from GRE-MRE. The wave patterns and estimated stiffness maps were similar to those from MCD-MRE and GRE-MRE. With SH-GRASP, the total scan time could be shortened by additional 4 folds, achieving a total acceleration factor of 20. Better metric values were also obtained using SH-GRASP for reconstruction compared with other algorithms. Significance. The MRD-MRE sequence and SH-GRASP algorithm can be used either in combination or independently to accelerate MRE, showing the potentials for imaging the brain as well as other organs.
Ultrafast modulation of vibrational polaritons for controlling the quantum field statistics at mid-infrared frequencies
Authors: Triana Johan F. , Herrera Felipe 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
Controlling the quantum field statistics of confined light is a long-standing goal in integrated photonics. We show that by coupling molecular vibrations with a confined mid-infrared cavity vacuum, the photocount and quadrature field statistics of the cavity field can be reversibly manipulated over sub-picosecond timescales. The mechanism involves changing the cavity resonance frequency through a modulation of the dielectric response of the cavity materials using femtosecond UV pulses. For a single anharmonic molecular vibration in an infrared cavity under ultrastrong coupling conditions, the pulsed modulation of the cavity frequency can adiabatically produce mid- infrared light that is simultaneously sub-Poissonian and quadrature squeezed, depending on the dipolar behavior of the vibrational mode. For a vibration-cavity system in strong coupling, non-adiabatic polariton excitations can be produced after the frequency modulation pulse is over, when the system is initially prepared in the lower polariton state. We propose design principles for the generation of mid-infrared quantum light by analyzing the dependence of the cavity field statistics on the shape of the electric dipole function of the molecule, the cavity detuning at the modulation peak and the anharmonicity of the Morse potential. Feasible experimental implementations of the modulation scheme are suggested. This work paves the way for the development of molecule-based mid-infrared quantum optical devices at room temperature.

Published: January 2022

Abstract
In this work, we investigate the propagation of magneto-inductive waves (MIWs) in ordering magnetic metamaterial (MM) structures. The proposed non-homogeneous MM slab consists of 9 × 9 MM unit cells constructed from a five-turn spiral embedded on an FR-4 substrate. External capacitors with the value of 40 pF or 50 pF were added to control the resonant frequency of each unit cell in accordance with the waveguide configurations. The characteristics of metamaterial structures, such as negative permeability, current ratio, transmission response, and field distribution in the waveguide, have been thoroughly analyzed by simulation and experiment. A non-homogeneous metamaterial slab operating in the MHz frequency range with a low propagation loss is demonstrated. Because of the strong magnetic field confinement in the waveguide, the transmittance after nine elements of the non-homogeneous MM slab is 5.2 times greater than that of the homogeneous MM slab. This structure can be applied to the planar near-field wireless power transfer, position sensor, and low-frequency communication.
Constraining beyond ΛCDM models with 21cm intensity mapping forecasted observations combined with latest CMB data

Published: January 2022

Abstract
We explore constraints on dark energy and modified gravity with forecasted 21cm intensity mapping measurements using the Effective Field Theory approach. We construct a realistic mock data set forecasting a low redshift 21cm signal power spectrum P
21(z,k) measurement from the MeerKAT radio-telescope. We compute constraints on cosmological and model parameters through Monte-Carlo Markov-Chain techniques, testing both the constraining power of P
21(k) alone and its effect when combined with the latest Planck 2018 CMB data.
We complement our analysis by testing the effects of tomography from an ideal mock data set of observations in multiple redshift bins. We conduct our analysis numerically with the codes EFTCAMB/EFTCosmoMC, which we extend by implementing a likelihood module fully integrated with the original codes. We find that adding P
21(k) to CMB data provides significantly tighter constraints on Ωc
h
2 and H
0, with a reduction of the error with respect to Planck results at the level of more than 60%.
For the parameters describing beyond ΛCDM theories, we observe a reduction in the error with respect to the Planck constraints at the level of ≲ 10%. The improvement increases up to ∼ 35% when we constrain the parameters using ideal, tomographic mock observations. We conclude that the power spectrum of the 21cm signal is sensitive to variations of the parameters describing the examined beyond ΛCDM models and, thus, P
21(k) observations could help to constrain dark energy. The constraining power on such theories is improved significantly by tomography.
Hadronuclear interpretation of the possible neutrino emission from PKS B1424-418, GB6 J1040+0617 and PKS 1502+106
Authors: Wang Ze-Rui , Xue Rui 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
In addition to neutrino event IceCube-170922A which is observed to be associated with a γ-ray flare from blazar TXS 0506+056, there are also several neutrino events that may be associated with blazars. Among them, PKS B1424-418, GB6 J1040+0617 and PKS 1502+106 are low synchrotron peaked sources, which are usually believed to have the broad line region in the vicinity of the central black hole. They are considered as counterparts of IceCube event 35, IceCube-141209A and IceCube-190730A, respectively. By considering the proton-proton (pp) interactions between the dense gas clouds in the broad line region and the relativistic protons in the jet, we show that the pp model that is applied in this work can not only reproduce the multi-waveband spectral energy distribution but also suggest a considerable annual neutrino detection rate. We also discuss the emission from the photopion production and Bethe-Heitler pair production with a sub-Eddington jet power that is suggested in our model and find that it has little effect on the spectrum of total emission for all of three sources.
Investigation of two coronal mass ejections from circular ribbon source region:Origin, Sun-Earth propagation and Geoeffectiveness
Authors: Ibrahim M. Syed , Uddin Wahab , Joshi Bhuwan , Chandra Ramesh , Awasthi Arun Kumar 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
In this article, we compare the properties of two coronal mass ejections (CMEs) that show similar source region characteristics but different evolutionary behaviors in the later phases. We discuss the two events in terms of their near-Sun characteristics, interplanetary evolution and geoeffectiveness. We carefully analyzed the initiation and propagation parameters of these events to establish the precise CME-interplanetary CME (ICME) connection and their near-Earth consequences. The first event is associated with poor geomagnetic storm disturbance index (Dst ≈-20 nT) while the second event is associated with an intense geomagnetic storm of DST ≈-119 nT. The configuration of the sunspots in the active regions and their evolution are observed by Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI). For source region imaging, we rely on data obtained from Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on board Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) and Hα filtergrams from the Solar Tower Telescope at Aryabhatta Research Institute of Observational Sciences (ARIES). For both the CMEs, flux rope eruptions from the source region triggered flares of similar intensities (≈M1). At the solar source region of the eruptions,we observed a circular ribbon flare (CRF) for both cases, suggesting fan-spine magnetic configuration in the active region corona. The multi-channel SDO observations confirm that the eruptive flares and subsequent CMEs were intimately related to the filament eruption. Within the Large Angle and Spectrometric Coronograph (LASCO) field of view (FOV) thetwo CMEs propagated with linear speeds of 671 and 631 km s−1, respectively. These CMEs were tracked up to the Earth by Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO) instruments. We find that the source region evolution of CMEs, guided by the large-scale coronal magnetic field configuration, along with near-Sun propagation characteristics, such as CME-CME interactions, played important roles in deciding the evolution of CMEs in the interplanetary medium and subsequently their geoeffectiveness.
JAX, M.D. A framework for differentiable physics*
Authors: Schoenholz Samuel S , Cubuk Ekin D 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
We introduce JAX MD, a software package for performing differentiable physics simulations with a focus on molecular dynamics. JAX MD includes a number of physics simulation environments, as well as interaction potentials and neural networks that can be integrated into these environments without writing any additional code. Since the simulations themselves are differentiable functions, entire trajectories can be differentiated to perform meta-optimization. These features are built on primitive operations, such as spatial partitioning, that allow simulations to scale to hundreds-of-thousands of particles on a single GPU. These primitives are flexible enough that they can be used to scale up workloads outside of molecular dynamics. We present several examples that highlight the features of JAX MD including: integration of graph neural networks into traditional simulations, meta-optimization through minimization of particle packings, and a multi-agent flocking simulation. JAX MD is available at https://www.github.com/google/jax-md.

Published: January 2022

Abstract
The research concerns the efficient development of low-potential thermal waters in the East-Ciscaucasian artesian basin. A technology is proposed for the integrated development of low-temperature thermal water, using its heat potential for district heating and hot water supply, as well the water itself for various water management purposes, with its quality previously brought to the standards of drinking water. Various chemical water treatment units are suggested for this purpose, with their design and technological features being formed depending on the quality of the source water. The system will enable the maximization of the resource potential of the geothermal well and its all-year-round operation. The paper shows the efficiency of using the potential of geothermal energy resources in energy- biological complexes. The geothermal-biogas technology with the integrated application of thermal waters for various needs is presented. Such thermal water utilization provides for the most efficient use of its thermal potential with a decrease in temperature to a value close to the ambient temperature.

Test of Membrane Aerated Biofilm Reactors for Nitrogen Removal in Wastewater Treatment
Authors: Chen Cheng 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
Membrane aerated biofilm reactor, as a biological wastewater treatment technology, has been nearly mature on a commercial scale. It uses bubble-free aeration to provide oxygen for biological nitrification and wastewater degradation. A novel oxygen-permeable hollow fiber membrane (Zeelung cord) specifically designed for use in a membrane aerated biofilm reactors (MABR). These fibers are organized into bundles, which are wrapped around the reinforcing core to increase strength. This permeable membrane allows oxygen to diffuse into the attached biofilm, which directly leads to the biological oxidation of pollutants in the wastewater. This study aimed to determine the nitrification and oxygen transfer capacity of Zeelung fibers used in the MABR system. The effects of various C/N ratios (in the range of 1.0 to 3.0) on the membrane modules were studied using three laboratory-scale reactors over the course of 165 days. In this test, the average removal efficiency of COD can reach 74% under selected conditions, up to 90%. Meanwhile, the average nitrification rate is 3.9 g/d/m2, the average ammonia removal rate is 90%, and the maximum value can reach 99%. In addition, the oxygen transfer rate of the fiber in the liquid phase was 19.65 g/d/m2. The experiment also indicated that the nitrification rate is directly proportional to the transfer flux of oxygen and is related to the content of dissolved oxygen in the water. The nitrification rate can be controlled by controlling the concentration of dissolved oxygen in water, thus affecting the removal rate of ammonia nitrogen.

Abstract
Sludge is the inevitable product of sewage treatment plant and sewage treatment. Before sludge treatment, dewatering is generally required. Mechanical sludge dewatering machine is a common sludge dewatering equipment. Due to the complex operation conditions, the stability of sludge dewatering machine frame directly affects its reliability. In this paper, a mechanical sludge dewatering machine frame as the research object, based on ANSYS Workbench finite element analysis platform, static analysis and modal analysis. The analysis results show that: under normal working conditions, the maximum variable of the frame is 0.07mm, which can effectively ensure the normal operation of the sludge dewatering machine; the equivalent stress is 4.22Mpa, which is far less than the Xu Yong stress of the material; the vibration of the first two modes of the frame is relatively concentrated, and the corresponding motor speed under the interference frequency is 1241.4-1595.4r/min, which should be avoided in the use process.
On-line Monitoring and Data Analysis of Environmental Vibration of High Concrete Dam
Authors: Lv Shengmei 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
As we all know, our country has actually gradually developed into a country with frequent occurrence of global earthquakes. The global earthquakes in the southwest region are the most serious. The most severe earthquake occurred in parts of the southwest. In short, the seismic performance design of a high dam is reflected under the action of the high dam for a given amount of seismic motion and input load. At present, one of the main technical methods for studying high dam seismic engineering is to use model calculations and experiments on its structural dynamics. Moreover, the earliest dam prototype dynamic experiments in my country only occurred in the 1970s and 1980s, and few people in China conducted experiments on these dams. Although there were already a certain degree of practical results at that time, a batch of valuable materials was obtained. However, no matter from the perspective of safety or the actual effect on vibration, as well as the prototype dynamic measurement and test method of the above-mentioned main dam, it has not been well applied to the current expressway. Therefore, it is necessary to consider finding an alternative original kinetic test method. The purpose of this article is to in-depth study the data analysis and application of the online monitoring system of environmental vibration of reinforced concrete high dams in my country. A new online monitoring system for dam environmental vibration is carried out for simulation experiments. Experimental research shows that the noise frequency of the three detection points of environmental noise and vibration monitoring is basically controlled between 1.5~2.0 hz, while the noise frequency of the detection point of the symmetrical location is relatively close.

Mechanical properties of metal and polymeric viscoelastic materials and their applications
Authors: Kang Kai 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
Nowadays, With the wide application of metals and polymeric materials, how to describe the property of Viscoelastic material and how to apply them in engineering has become more and more critical. Due to the lack of insight into the mechanical properties of viscoelastic materials, many scholars have done a lot of experiments in studying the behavior of viscoelastic materials. Axial tensile tests were conducted on specimens to derive different mechanical behaviors of metals, polymers, and other materials at different temperatures and loading rates. Metal can generally be divided into elastic and plastic parts, while polymeric materials have the phases of the linear elastic region, drawing region, and oriented molecular strength region. This paper also shows a test conducted by Argon, Ali S., and M. I. Bessonov of four different kinds of polymers at different circumstances of temperature. After that, the paper shows the application of viscoelastic materials as CLD in damping and some engineering problems caused by the mechanical properties of viscoelastic materials. Currently, research on viscoelasticity should mainly focus on the application of Finite Element Methods and the acquisition of more experimental data to establish a complete theoretical system.

Authors: Mukhtarov A P , Mukhtarova S K , Usmanova SA 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
The specific properties of tubular and fullerenlike silicon nanoparticles depend on theirs electronic structure, which is directly related to the surface geometry. Using density functional approach, a novel dual nature of the surface structure of silicon nanotubes which depends on the type of nanotube have been revevaled. The rippled form of the surface has shown to be a favorable one for (n, n) type structure and the most stable form for (n, 0) Si NT is the nanotube with a smooth-walled graphene-like surface. The phenomenon is explained by the relative position of the non-hybridized p orbitals on the surface.
