迎风紧致格式求解Hamilton-Jacobi方程

基于Hamilton-Jaeobi(H-J)方程和双曲型守恒律之间的关系,将三阶和五阶迎风紧致格式推广应用于求解H-J方程,建立了高精度的H-J方程求解方法.给出了一维和二维典型数值算例的计算结果,其中包括一个平面激波作用下的Richtmyer-Meshkov界面不稳定性问题.数值试验表明,在解的光滑区域该方法具有高精度,而在导数不连续的不光滑区域也获得了比较好的分辨效果.相比于同阶精度的WENO格式,本方法具有更小的数值耗散,从而有利于多尺度复杂流动的模拟中H-J方程的求解.

Scio me vivere: raíces agustinianas de la fenomenología de la vida de Michel Henry

Resumen: El presente trabajo rastrea algunos aspectos de la fenomenología de la vida de Michel Henry en la doctrina de san Agustín. Recorre distintos caminos: de la scientia agustiniana al aparecer/saber, del verbum a la palabra, del cogitare al pensamiento, de la notitia amata a la auto-afección. En la conclusión, retoma la distinción del Obispo de Hipona entre scientia y sapientia como punto de partida para una reflexión sobre la posibilidad de la metafísica.

Creemos porque amamos : la estructura interna del acto de fe en John Henry Newman

El autor nos introduce en la cuestión de los motivos racionales de la fe. Las operaciones llevadas a cabo por la inteligencia y la voluntad en el acto de creer, constituyen el fundamento por el cual la Verdad revelada entabla históricamente el diálogo con el hombre. El tema se halla en el centro de la experiencia religiosa y de la reflexión teológica de Newman, y ha significado un aporte indiscutible a la teología contemporánea.

La “experiencia religiosa” forjadora de un lenguaje teológico significativo en John Henry Newman

El autor plantea la cuestión de lo significativo del lenguaje teológico a partir del concepto de experiencia en el pensamiento del cardenal Newman. Su itinerario de fe y conversión, enraizado en un diálogo personal con Dios, le ha dado tanto a su teología como a su predicación, un atractivo que trasciende su época y que puede servir de estímulo actualmente en la comunicación teológica.

非平整运动海底上n层流动中波浪传播的Hamilton逼近

在海洋水域，界面波对大尺度变化流的作用是一种典型的分层流动现象。考虑一不可压缩、无黏的分层势流运动，建立了一个在非平整运动海底上的n层流体演化系统，并对其进行了Hamilton描述。每层流体具有各自的常密度、均匀流水平速度，其厚度由未扰动和扰动部分构成。相对于顶层流体的自由表面，刚性、运动的海底具有一般地形变化特征。在明确指出n层流体运动的控制方程和各层交界面上的运动学、动力学边界条件（包含各层交界面上张力效应）后，对该分层动力系统进行了Hamilton构造，即给出其正则方程和其下述的正则变量：各交界面位移和各交界面上的动量势密度差。

Activación de aldehídos a,b-insaturados mediante aminocatálisis en procesos enantioselectivos. Cicloadiciones (3+2) y reacciones en cascada Michael/Henry

During the research that it is summarized in the present memory, the activation of enals via iminium ion catalysis in different transformations has been studied. Firstly, a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between stable azomethine ylides and a,b-unsaturated aldehydes catalyzed by a chiral imidazolidinone derivative has been optimized. Employing this methodology we have synthesized a large range of densely substituted pyrroloisoquinolines and pyrrolophthalazines with good yields and high values of diastereo- and enantioselectivity. Moreover, a mechanistic study has been carried out based on DFT calculations and experimental data which have allowed us to propose that the (3+2) cycloaddition reaction follows a sequential Michael addition/Mannich cyclization pathway. The formation of the iminium ion as a result of the condensation between the a,b-unsaturated aldehyde and the catalyst plays an essential role, regarding both reactivity and stereoselectivity. On the other hand we have developed a methodology to carry out a cascade Michael/Henry reaction followed by a sequential dehydration. Starting from simple substrates (2-nitromethylacrilates and a,b-unsaturated aldehydes) and employing a prolinol-derivative catalyst a series of quiral nitrocyclohexadienes have been synthesized.

Stanford University’s John Otterbein Snyder: Student, Collaborator, and Colleague of David Starr Jordan and Charles Henry Gilbert

John Otterbein Snyder (1867–1943) was an early student of David Starr Jordan at Stanford University and subsequently rose to become an assistant professor there. During his 34 years with the university he taught a wide variety of courses in various branches of zoology and advised numerous students. He eventually mentored 8 M.A. and 4 Ph.D. students to completion at Stanford. He also assisted in the collection of tens of thousands of fish specimens from the western Pacific, central Pacific, and the West Coast of North America, part of the time while stationed as “Naturalist” aboard the U.S. Fish Commission’s Steamer Albatross (1902–06). Although his early publications dealt mainly with fish groups and descriptions (often as a junior author with Jordan), after 1910 he became more autonomous and eventually rose to become one of the Pacific salmon, Oncorhynchus spp., experts on the West Coast. Throughout his career, he was especially esteemed by colleagues as “a stimulating teacher,” “an excellent biologist,” and “a fine man.

Charles Henry Gilbert (1859-1928), Naturalist-in-Charge, and Chauncey Thomas, Jr. (1850-1919), Commanding: Conflict Aboard the U. S. Fish Commission Steamer Albatross in 1902

Charles Henry Gilbert (1859-1928) was a pioneering ichthyologist who made major contributions to the study of fishes of the American West. As chairman of the Department ofZoology at Leland Stanford Junior University in Palo Alto, Calif., during 1891-1925, Gilbert was extremely devoted to his work and showed little patience with those ofa different mindset. While serving as Naturalist-in-Charge of the U.S. Fish Commission Steamer Albatross during her exploratory expedition to the Hawaiian Islands in 1902, Gilbert engaged in an acrimonious feud with the ship's captain, Chauncey Thomas, Jr. (1850-1919), U.S.N., over what Gilbert perceived to be an inadequate effort by the captain. This essay focuses on the conflict between two strong figures, each operatingf rom different world views, and each vying for authority. Despite the difficulties these two men faced, the voyage of the Albatross in 1902 must be considered a success, as reflected by the extensive biological samples collected, the many new species of animals discovered, and the resulting publication of important scientific papers.

Charles Henry Gilbert (1859-1928), Naturalist-in-Charge: the 1906 North Pacific Expedition of the Steamer Albatross

Fishery science pioneers often faced challenges in their field work that are mostly unknown to modern biologists. Some of the travails faced by ichthyologist and, later, fishery biologist Charles Henry Gilbert (1859-1928) during his service as Naturalist-in-Charge of the North Pacific cruise ofthe U.S. Bureau of Fisheries Steamer Albatross in 1906, are described here, as are accomplishments of the cruise. The vessel left San Francisco, Calif., on 3 May 1906, just after the great San Francisco earthquake, for scientific exploration of waters of the Aleutian islands, Bering Sea, Kamchatka, Sakhalin, and Japan, returning to San Francisco in December. Because the expedition occurred just after the war between Japan and Russia of 1904-05 floating derelict mines in Japanese waters were often a menace. Major storms caused havoc in the region, and the captain of the Albatross, Lieutenant Commander LeRoy Mason Garrett (1857-1906), U.S.N., was lost at sea, apparently thrown from the vessel during a sudden storm on the return leg of the cruise. Despite such obstacles, Gilbert and the Albatross successfully completed their assigned chores. They occupied 339 dredging and 48 hydrographic stations, and discovered over 180 new species of fishes and many new species of invertebrates. The expedition's extensive biological collections spawned over 30 descriptive publications, some of which remain today as standards of knowledge.
