Vector velocity fluctuations of propagating stall in axial flow compressors
Creators: name: Bodeen, Charles Albert
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 1961
Subjects: subject: Mechanical Engineering
subject: FOS: Mechanical engineering

description: The angular velocity of propagation of a single cell partial span propagating stall traveling on an isolated, or relatively isolated, axial compressor blade row was found experimentally to be equal to the downstream angular velocity of the flow outside the stall cell between successive passages of the stall cell averaged over the blade span.  In a machine consisting of three identical stages, a similar stall was found to propagate at the mean of two such averages, i.e., upstream and downstream from any interior blade row.  The sides of partial span stall cells were found to be streamtubes in several cases.

Other general but less significant observations of propagating stall are reported.  The hot wire anemometers used to measure unsteady vector velocities are described.
Experimental investigation of detached shock on a 70 degree cone at various angles of attack
Creators: name: Bryan, William C.
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 1950
Subjects: Aeronautics

description: The results of an experimental investigation into the variation of the shock wave shape and the extent of the subsonic region behind the shock with varying angle of attack at various Mach numbers are summarized. All tests are made on a finite 70° cone. The main interest is centered on those Mach numbers which are low enough to produce detached shocks or for which the possibility of detachment exists for increasing angles of attack.

The angles of attack for which the investigation is made are 0°, 3°, 6°, 9°, 12° and 15°. The Mach numbers considered are 1.438, 1.544, 1.584, 1.857, 1.986, and 3.01.

It is found that, for increasing angles of attack at constant Mach numbers, the extent of the subsonic region increases behind the lower shock and decreases behind the upper shock. A subsonic region appears at increased angle of attack for two of the Mach numbers for which the shocks are initially attached. There is also quite definite interaction between the upper and lower portions of the shock which tends to inhibit both the appearance of a subsonic region after the shock on the one hand and the disappearance of it on the other.

description: We show nonlinear transport experiments on clean, suspended bilayer graphene that reveal a gap in the density of states. Looking at the evolution of the gap in magnetic fields of different orientation, we find that the groundstate is a spin-ordered phase. Of the three possible gapped groundstates that are predicted by theory for equal charge distribution between the layers, we can therefore exclude the quantum anomalous Hall phase, leaving the layer antiferromagnet and the quantum spin Hall phase as the only possible gapped groundstates for bilayer graphene.

description: The paper contains mathematical justification of basic facts concerning the Brownian motor theory. The homogenization theorems are proved for the Brownian motion in periodic tubes with a constant drift. The study is based on an application of the Bloch decomposition. The effective drift and effective diffusivity are expressed in terms of the principal eigenvalue of the Bloch spectral problem on the cell of periodicity as well as in terms of the harmonic coordinate and the density of the invariant measure. We apply the formulas for the effective parameters to study the motion in periodic tubes with nearly separated dead zones.

Subjects: subject: Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics (astro-ph.CO)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The acceleration of the cosmic expansion revealed by supernova observations indicates that the present universe is dominated by repulsive dark energy. It is natural that the coupling between the dark energy and the attractive gravity has to be taken into account in studying the evolution of our universe. Here we induce a dynamic equation of universe evolution based on the cosmological principal, gravity-dark energy coupling, and energy conservation. The solutions of this dynamic equation provide a specific picture of cosmic evolution, which is well compatible with current observed evolution histories of both Hubble parameter H(z) and equation of state parameter w(z) of dark energy. In this picture, the already observed universe has undergone through three epochs - the epoch of equilibrium between gravity and dark energy at cosmological redshifts z>1, the phase transition epoch at z between about 0.5 and 1, and the present acceleration epoch starting from z~0.5. The expected matter-dominated deceleration epoch has not been seen yet, which requires future deep observations to look back upon more early universe.

Higgs Portal Vector Dark Matter : Revisited

description: We revisit the Higgs portal vector dark matter model including a hidden sector Higgs field that generates the mass of the vector dark matter. The model becomes renormalizable and has two scalar bosons, the mixtures of the standard model (SM) Higgs and the hidden sector Higgs bosons. The strong bound from direct detection such as XENON100 is evaded due to the cancellation mechanism between the contributions from two scalar bosons. As a result, the model becomes still viable in large range of dark matter mass, contrary to some claims in the literature. The Higgs properties are also affected, the signal strengths for the Higgs boson search being universally suppressed relative to the SM value, which could be tested at the LHC in the future.

Soft RPV Through the Baryon Portal
Creators: name: Krnjaic, Gordan

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Supersymmetric (SUSY) models with R-parity generically predict sparticle decays with invisible neutralinos, which yield distinctive missing energy events at colliders. Since most LHC searches are designed with this expectation, the putative bounds on sparticle masses become considerably weaker if R-parity is violated so that squarks and gluinos decay to jets with large QCD backgrounds. Here we introduce a scenario in which baryonic R-parity violation (RPV) arises effectively from soft SUSY-breaking interactions, but leptonic RPV remains accidentally forbidden to evade constraints from proton decay and FCNCs. The model features a global R-symmetry that initially forbids RPV interactions, a hidden R-breaking sector, and a heavy mediator that communicates this breaking to the visible sector. After R-symmetry breaking, the mediator is integrated out and an effective RPV A-term arises at tree level; RPV couplings between quarks and squarks arise only at loop level and receive additional suppression. Although this mediator must be heavy compared to soft masses, the model introduces no new hierarchy since viable RPV can arise when the mediator mass is near the SUSY breaking scale. In generic regions of parameter space, a light thermally-produced gravitino is stable and can be a viable dark matter candidate.

description: The study of soil chemical and physical properties variability is important for suitable management practices. Land use without adequate planning leads to soil impoverishment and low crop yield, which results in a decline in the socioeconomic and technological level of the rural population. The aim of this study was to evaluate the spatial variability of soil properties in the Malhada do Meio settlement to subsidize soil use planning. The settlement is located in Chapadinha, MA, Brazil, and has an area of 630.86 ha. The vegetation is seasonal submontane deciduous forest and steppe savanna. The geology is formed of sandstones and siltstones of the Itapecuru Formation and by colluvial and alluvial deposits. The relief consists of hills with rounded and flat tops with an average altitude of 67 m, and frequently covered over by ferruginous duricrusts. A total of 183 georeferenced soil samples were collected at the depth of 0.00-0.20 m in Plintossolos , Neossolo and Gleissolo. The following chemical variables were analyzed: pH(CaCl2), H+Al, Al, SB, V, CEC, P, K, OM, Ca, Mg, SiO2, Al2O3, and Fe2O3; along with particle size variables: clay, silt, and sand. Descriptive statistical and geostatistical analyses were carried out. The coefficient of variation (CV) was high for most of the variables, with the exception of pH with a low CV, and of sand with a medium CV. The models fitted to the experimental semivariograms of these variables were the exponential and the spherical. The range values were from 999 m to 3,690 m. For the variables pH(CaCl2), SB, and clay, there are three specific areas for land use planning. The central part of the area (zone III), where the Plintossolos Pétricos and Neossolos Flúvicos occur, is the most suitable for crops due to higher macronutrient content, organic matter and pH. Zones I and II are indicated for environmental preservation. This study defined homogeneous areas of the management of high and low levels of soil fertility.

description: Dynamical processes on time-varying complex networks are key to understanding and modeling a broad variety of processes in socio-technical systems. Here we focus on empirical temporal networks of human proximity and we aim at understanding the factors that, in simulation, shape the arrival time distribution of simple spreading processes. Abandoning the notion of wall-clock time in favour of node-specific clocks based on activity exposes robust statistical patterns in the arrival times across different social contexts. Using randomization strategies and generative models constrained by data, we show that these patterns can be understood in terms of heterogeneous inter-event time distributions coupled with heterogeneous numbers of events per edge. We also show, both empirically and by using a synthetic dataset, that significant deviations from the above behavior can be caused by the presence of edge classes with strong activity correlations.
Supersonic flow in a two-dimensional asymmetric channel

Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 1949
Subjects: Aeronautics

description: A practical method is developed whereby the flow field in a two-dimensional asymmetric channel can easily be determined employing the method of characteristics. Some insight as to the accuracy of such a graphical solution is gained by checking against a known theoretical solution. An asymmetric channel having a simple geometric form is designed for uniform exit flow. The lower wall is then shifted various distances to achieve different mean flows at the exit thus simulating the operation of a wind tunnel. The velocity and flow inclination gradients are determined in the test section. The same analysis is performed on a similar channel but with one of the geometric parameters of the throat changed. Finally, an investigation is carried out to determine the amount that the profile of the upper wall differs from what it should be to attain uniform flow in the test section for the various configurations.
Topological Crystalline Insulators in Transition Metal Oxides

description: Topological crystalline insulators (TCI) possess electronic states protected by crystal symmetries, rather than time-reversal symmetry. We show that the transition metal oxides with heavy transition metals are able to support nontrivial band topology resulting from mirror symmetry of the lattice. As an example, we consider pyrochlore oxides of the form A$_2$M$_2$O$_7$. As a function of spin-orbit coupling strength, we find two $Z_2$ topological insulator phases can be distinguished from each other by their mirror Chern numbers, each of which indicates a different TCI. We also derive an effective $\bf{k\cdot p}$ Hamiltonian, similar to the model introduced for $\mathrm{Pb_{1-x}Sn_{x}Te}$, and discuss the effect of an on-site Hubbard interaction on the topological crystalline insulator phase using slave-rotor mean-field theory, which predicts new classes of topological quantum spin liquids.

Comparison of Capital Costs per Route-Kilometre in Urban Rail

description: Because of the prominent position of urban rail in reducing urban transport-related problems, such as congestion and air pollution, insights into the costs of possible new urban rail projects is very relevant for those involved with cost estimations, policy makers, cost-benefit analysts, and other target groups. Knowledge of the differences in costs per kilometre, including explanations of differences and their breakdowns is currently lacking in the literature. This paper aims to provide a first stage insight into how cost per kilometre varies across urban rail projects. The methodology applied is a simple cost comparison across projects where the data collected are comparable. We conclude that capital costs per route-kilometre of urban rail vary highly between projects. Looking at European projects and excluding outliers, the total capital costs per route-kilometre (including stations and rolling stock) lie mainly between US$50-100 million (2002 prices). Including US projects, the range is US$50-150 million. The main reasons for the high variation in the route-kilometre costs are differences between projects as regards the ratio of underground to above-ground construction, ground conditions, station spacing, type of rolling stock, environmental and safety constraints and labour costs. We warn, however, that the observations used to reach the conclusions are too few to obtain results with statistical significance. Our results must therefore be seen as a first step towards collecting more data so that a more succinct statistical analysis can be conducted. Another conclusion is therefore that this area has future research potential.

description: Digital assets are highly vulnerable and always prone to malicious intervention. Identification of causes of such intervention for timely support and assistance remains a key challenge for businesses to remain functional and thrive with the competition. A framework is proposed in this paper for identifying cyber risk, threat, and countermeasure, based on breach databases and textual information processing. Alongside, a multi-objective optimisation of a mixed-integer non-linear problem (MINLP) is made post linearisation to find out a suitable trade-off between cyber risk and investment. The model helps in effective decision-making by finding the proneness of suppliers (as nodes) in the sequence of reducing vulnerability and pairing of categorised factors. The web scrapping and historical databases are processed to extract relationships among categorised factors using natural language processing (NLP). Pareto optimal pairs are obtained to explain the application of the current contribution in terms of risk-cost trade-off. It helps in forming preventive strategies with a suitable amount of investment and the required order of precedence or susceptibility.

description: This brief report studies the behavior of entropy in two recent models of cosmic evolution by J.A.S. Lima, S. Basilakos, and F.E.M. Costa [Phys. Rev. D \underline{86}, 103534 (2012)], and J. A. S. Lima, S. Basilakos, and J. Solá [arXiv:1209.2802]. Both start with an initial de Sitter expansion, go through the conventional radiation and matter dominated eras to be followed by a final and everlasting de Sitter expansion. In spite of their outward similarities (from the observational viewpoint they are arbitrary close to the conventional $Λ$CDM model), they deeply differ in the physics behind them. Our study reveals that in both cases the universe approaches thermodynamic equilibrium in the last de Sitter era in the sense that the entropy of the apparent horizon plus that of matter and radiation inside it increases and is concave. Accordingly, they are consistent with thermodynamics. Cosmological models that do not approach equilibrium at the last phase of their evolution appear in conflict with the second law of thermodynamics.

description: Prior research studies sustainable supply chain (SC) management for the electric vehicle (EV) industry in which SC members have sufficient funds. However, many EV firms always face the problems of financial constraints, which lead to the importance and urgency for the research of sustainable SC finance. To address this new problem, we consider the members of the electric vehicle supply chain (EVSC) can be risk averse because of the financial risks from uncertain demands. The EV retailer has limited liability and can obtain loans through a bank or an EV manufacturer. We first address a base model in which the EV manufacturer invests in the green research and development (R&D) effort and investigate operational decisions and sustainable SC finance strategies for the EVSC and members. Using the real data from a top-four EV manufacturer in the world, we do a case study to verify the outcomes of the base model and find that the EVSC and members can derive higher profits with MF strategy for the most cases. Furthermore, we extend the base model to consider government subsidies and the EV retailer's service levels, and find that government subsidies and the EV retailer's service are beneficial to the EVSC.

description: Out-of-equilibrium fermions can be created in the early Universe by non-perturbative parametric effects, both at preheating or during the thermal era. An anisotropic stress is developed in the fermion distribution, acting as a source of a stochastic background of gravitational waves (GW). We derive a general formalism to calculate the spectrum of GW produced by an ensemble of fermions, which we apply to a variety of scenarios after inflation. We discuss in detail the regularization of the source, i.e. of the unequal-time-correlator of the fermions' transverse-traceless anisotropic stress. We discuss how the GW spectrum builds up in time and present a simple parametrization of its final amplitude and peak frequency. We find that fermions may generate a GW background with a significant amplitude at very high frequencies, similarly to the case of preheating with scalar fields. A detection of this GW background would shed light about the physics of the very early Universe, but new technology at high frequencies is required, beyond the range accessible to currently planned detectors.

Self-sustained emission in semi-infinite non-Hermitian systems at the exceptional point

description: Complex potential and non-Hermitian hopping amplitude are building blocks of a non-Hermitian quantum network. Appropriate configuration, such as PT-symmetric distribution, can lead to the full real spectrum. To investigate the underlying mechanism of this phenomenon, we study the phase diagram of a semi-infinite non-Hermitian system. It consists of a finite non-Hermitian cluster and a semi-infinite lead. Based on the analysis of the solution of the concrete systems, it is shown that it can have the full real spectrum without any requirements on the symmetry and the wave function within the lead becomes a unidirectional plane wave at the exceptional point. This universal dynamical behavior is demonstrated as the persistent emission and reflectionless absorption of wave packets in the typical non-Hermitian systems containing the complex on-site potential and non-Hermitian hopping amplitude.

Stabilization of a bipropellant liquid rocket motor
Creators: name: Cox, Dale W.
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 1952
Subjects: Aeronautics

description: The unstable burning of a bipropellant rocket combustion chamber is investigated and a study made of the requirements for an automatic closed loop control circuit to stabilize the motor.

The bipropellant combustion chamber equations developed by Dr. L. Crocco(1) are utilised as the analytical description of the rocket motor burning phenomena. Equations similar to those developed by Dr. H. S. Taiga(2) are used for the oxidizer and fuel supply systems and the two closed loop stabilizing circuits.

The stability or instability of the system is demonstrated by the use of a special plotting diagram in the complex plane suggested by M. Satche as a means of handling systems with time lag, and developed for this use by H. S. Tsien. This involves separating the transfer function into two parts. In the complex plane the first portion of the transfer function, the exponential variable containing the time lag, plots as a unit circle as the complex variable p is made to take a contour enclosing the positive half of the p—plane. If the remaining portion of the transfer function intersects this unit circle, the rocket motor can be unstable for large reduced time lag; if it does not intersect the unit circle, the system is generally stable, although the roots of the exponential coefficient in the positive half of the complex plane must be investigated. This latter requirement can be conveniently accomplished by the aid of a Nyquist Diagram.

The equations for the feedback circuit are developed and the oxidizer and fuel transfer function requirements are determined.

Two cases of stable combustion and two cases of unstable combustion are analyzed. One unstable case is stabilized by the addition of a feedback circuit.
Survival of the Unfittest: Why the Worst Infrastructure Gets Built, And What We Can Do about It

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: General Finance (q-fin.GN)
subject: FOS: Economics and business

description: The article first describes characteristics of major infrastructure projects. Second, it documents a much neglected topic in economics: that ex ante estimates of costs and benefits are often very different from actual ex post costs and benefits. For large infrastructure projects the consequence is cost overruns, benefit shortfalls, and the systematic underestimation of risks. Third, implications for cost-benefit analysis are described, including that such analysis is not to be trusted for major infrastructure projects. Fourth, the article uncovers the causes of this state of affairs in terms of perverse incentives that encourage promoters to underestimate costs and overestimate benefits in the business cases for their projects. But the projects that are made to look best on paper are the projects that amass the highest cost overruns and benefit shortfalls in reality. The article depicts this situation as "survival of the un-fittest." Fifth, the article sets out to explain how the problem may be solved, with a view to arriving at more efficient and more democratic projects, and avoiding the scandals that often accompany major infrastructure investments. Finally, the article identifies current trends in major infrastructure development. It is argued that a rapid increase in stimulus spending combined with more investments in emerging economies combined with more spending on information technology is catapulting infrastructure investment from the frying pan into the fire.

description: We report the evidence of a new $β$ Cephei type variable located in the Southern open cluster \astrobj{NGC 6200}: \astrobj{ALS 3728}. Spectroscopic and photometric observations of NGC\,6200 stars were carried out at the South African Astronomical Observatory (SAAO) in 2011. It was found that \astrobj{ALS 3728} has a frequency of about 4.95 d$^{-1}$ with highest amplitude. The star also shows a remarkable stillstand phase just before its light maxima which is a typical characteristic occurring among these type of stars. Furthermore, a mode identification is applied for the dominant frequency that is calculated from the Fourier analysis.
