Modeling and Simulation of Liquid Pulsed Particulate Fluidized Beds

Pulsed fluidization is of considerable interest in process engineering for improving fluidization quality. Quantitative understanding of the pulsed two-phase flow behaviors is very important for proper design and optimum operation of such contactors. The

Orientation preference and fractal character of short fatigue cracks in a weld metal

Short fatigue crack behaviour in a weld metal has been further investigated. The Schmid factor and the fractal dimension of short cracks on iso-stress specimens subjected to reversed bending have been determined and then applied to account for the distribution and orientation characteristics of short fatigue cracks. The result indicates that the orientation preference of short cracks is attributed to the large values of Schmid factor at relevant grains. The Schmid factors of most slip systems, which produced short cracks, are less than or equal to 0.4. Crack length measurements reveal that short crack path, compared to that of long crack, possesses a more stable and relatively larger value of fractal dimension. This is regarded as one of the typical features of short cracks.

加卸载响应比与损伤变量关系研究

首先介绍加卸载响应比的2个基本参量,并从损伤力学的基本理论出发,引入损伤变量,结合加卸载响应比方法的思想,推导用损伤和应变定义的加卸载响应比,并以Weibull分布作为随机分布函数,建立且分析损伤变量与加卸载响应比之间的联系,并进一步考察Weibull指数对两者关系的影响.然后利用岩石破坏声发射实验的数据,用声发射数密度描述岩石试件的损伤演化过程,并由此根据损伤和应变定义的加卸载响应比,结合实验过程中的损伤和应变,计算花岗岩试件的加卸载响应比曲线,并与用Benioff应变作响应量计算的加卸载响应比曲线进行比较,发现两者具有相当程度的一致性,两者的加卸载响应比值都经历了出现异常→升高到最大值→急剧回落→岩石试件破裂或失稳,这一规律与实际地震震例中加卸载响应比的演化趋势是一致的,同时也说明在实际地震预测中用Benioff应变作为响应量来计算加卸载响应比是合理的.最后介绍意大利那不勒斯大学完成的二层楼房的加卸载实验,且对实验结果进行分析.建立的加卸载响应比与损伤变量的关系,不仅为加卸载响应比用来定量研究脆性介质的损伤程度提供更为坚实的基础,而且也可能为评估大型建筑的损伤和预测工程事故开辟新道路.

考虑激光与运动目标相互作用的基础上。利用有限元方法分析了亚声速条件下运动目标在激光辐照全过程的温度场和热应力场的分布与演化规律。结果表明：高速流场的存在，导致了明显的冷却效应；加热过程中目标材料出现了屈服，导致激光熄灭后结构内出现残余应力和变形；激光辐照区边缘产生很高的温度梯度和应力梯度，并且由于气流影响，受辐照区域前后两端应力分布不对称。

强激光在窄通道中传播的理论研究

在考虑相对论和有质动力非线性以及全局电量守衡的前提下，分析了强激光在冷等离子体窄通道中稳定传播的情况。采用较为简化的二维理论模型，给出了描述激光和通道横向结构的解，对不同通道宽度、通道密度、激光强度和电磁模式等进行了讨论，分析了其对激光在等离子体通道中传播的影响。分析发现，在存在预通道的情况下，当等离子体通道的密度大于临界密度很多时（例如20倍临界密度），即使是在激光波长量缴的通道中，激光仍然可以传播。通道越宽，等离子体密度越小；激光强度越大越容易传播。在同样的通道和传输情况下，TE0模传输所需要的激光强

Ultrafast temporal pattern generation and recognition

Ultrafast temporal pattern generation and recognition with femtosecond laser technology is presented, analyzed, and experimentally implemented. Ultrafast temporal pattern generation and recognition are realized by taking advantage of two well-known techniques: the space-time conversion technique and the ultrafast pulse measurement technique. Here the temporal pattern for the designed multiple pulses, optimized with a preassumed Gaussian spectral distribution of an ultrashort pulse, is described. With the simulation of a Gaussian spectral distribution, we realize that the uniformity of the generated multiple ultrafast temporal pulses is relevant to the repeated number of modulation periods in the mask in the spectral plane. Moreover, the change of Gaussian spectral phases with the wavelengths in the modulated phase plate is considered. Experiments of ultrafast temporal pattern recognition by the frequency-resolved optical gating (FROG) characterization technique are also given.
