    Analysis of the stokes problem in a regular bounded open set

    The Stokes equation describes the flow velocity of a steady state fluid in relation to the pressure and the external source. The corresponding variational formulation of the Stokes equation is studied in the paper. In more detail, we delve into the analysis of the equivalence relations pertaining to the variational formulations of the Stokes equations. We found that the variational formulation of the Stokes equation can be approximated by a type of variational formulation with a coefficient but without the constraint on the divergence. Then we did a analysis on the approximation by the finite element method to the the variational formulation without the constraint on the divergence, and we find that we should use preconditioning techniques before using the iteration. More precisely, we give an error analysis of this numerical computation method through rigorous proofs, and from this we deduce the need to use preprocessing techniques to avoid long computation times.

    Analysis of the application of the air suspension system of pure electric vehicle

    Air suspension is a component that connects wheels and bodies and conducts force and moment by reaction force of air spring gas compression. The air suspension system exhibits notable merits in terms of enhanced driving comfort and stability, coupled with the ability to adjust multiple parameters. Consequently, examining the advantages of air suspension can serve as a theoretical foundation for the selection of automobile suspension systems. Furthermore, elucidating the benefits derived from the utilization of air suspension can facilitate subsequent studies by providing clarity and directness. In this paper, the advantages and disadvantages of air suspension are analyzed, and the semi-active control of air suspension is discussed, different parameters of air suspension can be controlled by the system. The limited adoption of air suspension systems can be predominantly ascribed to the substantial financial investment required for their installation and upkeep, including both higher initial costs and ongoing maintenance expenses. Accordingly, it has better driving comfort and stability than traditional mechanical suspension and can be controlled by the control system. Semi-active control of air suspension may make it closer to ideal performance in actual work by optimization and a combination of new technologies.

    Comparison of various turbulence models in wind tunnels

    Wind tunnel test is widely used in aviation, automobile, construction and other fields to simulate the force and flow field distribution of objects in the wind field. However, due to the existence of complex flow phenomena such as turbulence, the accuracy of the wind tunnel test is affected to a certain extent. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the performance of various turbulence models in the wind tunnel to improve the accuracy of the wind tunnel test. This study compares and analyzes the performance of turbulence models in wind tunnel experiments. Based on various turbulence models, numerical simulation methods are employed to simulate and calculate the flow field in wind tunnel experiments, and the results are compared. Through the comparison and analysis, it is found that different turbulence models exhibit different performance in simulating wind tunnel experiments. Among them, the RSM model demonstrates better accuracy and stability, without the presence of boundary layer effects. The purpose of this research is to evaluate and analyze the applicability of various turbulence models in wind tunnel experiments, provide references and guidance for flow field simulations in wind tunnel testing. However, limitations of this study lie in the constraints of the models and computational methods used, and further research and exploration are needed to address these limitations.

    Security of elliptic curve cryptosystems over Z_n

    Elliptic curves over Galois fields are widely used in modern cryptography. Cryptosystems based on elliptic curves are commonly deemed more secure than RSA for a given key size. However, with the rapid progress of quantum computing, the security of this traditional systems faces unprecedented challenge. To address this concern, this paper explores the resilience of a generalization of traditional elliptic curve cryptography. That is, we explore elliptic curves over non-prime rings (Zn), instead of fields. Elliptic curves over Zn for a composite integer n has been considered by researchers on information security. However, it is unclear how they stand against the unparalleled power of quantum computers. This article investigates quantum attacks on cryptosystems based on this new paradigm. The conclusion sheds light on the pressing and important task of searching for post-quantum cryptographic systems. In particular, the effectiveness of Shor’s algorithm (or its variation) on such systems is analyzed.

    Linear programming and its application in analysing game theory

    Game theory has been widely used in many fields including economics, politics and military for a long period of time. Game theory can be divided into two situations: zero-sum and non-zero-sum, since both situations can appear in the fields very often and should be of great importance to research, the objective is to maximize the finial net payoff or minimize the loss by linear programming. In zero-sum situations, this paper will create the payoff matrix and by the Max-min theorem, this paper can get the constraints to satisfy the condition of using python code, the calculation result of the code gives that strategy 3 and 4 should be the best input if the opponent is also choosing the best strategy. For non-zero-sum situation, this paper will discuss firm competition and American presidential Election, payoff matrix, linear formulation will be used to help get the result of best election result. The result shows that the resources should be put into the state with the most votes and net approval rating, python calculation will give these results.

    Seeing cells without a lens: Compact 3D digital lensless holographic microscopy for wide-field imaging

    Optical microscopy is an essential tool for biomedical discoveries and cell diagnosis at micro- to nano-scales. However, conventional microscopes rely on lenses to record 2-D images of samples, which limits in-depth inspection of large volumes of cells. This research project implements a novel 3-D lensless microscopic imaging system that achieves a wide field of view, high resolution, and an extremely compact, cost-effective design: the Digital Lensless Holographic Microscope (DLHM).A lensless holographic microscope is built with only a light source, a sample, and an imaging chip (with other non-essential supporting structures). The entire setup costs $500 to $600. A series of MATLAB-based algorithms were designed to reconstruct phase information of samples simultaneously from the recorded hologram with built-in high-resolution and phase unwrapping functions. This produces 3-D images of cell samples. The 3-D cell reconstruction of biological samples maintained a comparable resolution with conventional optical microscopes while covering a field of view of 36.2 mm2, which is 20-30 times larger. While most microscopes are extremely time-consuming and require professional expertise, the lensless holographic microscope is portable, low-cost, high-stability, and extremely simple. This makes it accessible for point-of-care testing (POCT) to a broader coverage, including developing regions with limited medical facilities.

    Overview of the nature and development of gambling from the perspective of probability

    In 1654, Pascal and Fermar discussed how two gamblers should fairly divide their winnings after a break in play, and they came up with the right answer for the first time. Many gamblers are convinced that luck is always on their side and the odds of victory are always in their hands because gambling that is based on random games does not require too many skills and strategies to gamble based on the gambler's luck and competitiveness. Can gambling activities that draw large numbers of gamblers actually result in a profit? Making a lot of money through sheer luck is a pipe dream, according to the principles of probability that govern random games like winning and losing in gambling. This paper employs a method based on literature reviews to first assess the core of gambling from a probability perspective, then discuss the previous contributions of gambling, and lastly discuss the significance of probability and the future development of gambling.

    Research on the bidirectional sliding phenomena of a toppling rod under frictional situations

    In this work, we investigated the phenomenon of spontaneous bidirectional sliding on a toppling rod under a frictional situation. We explained the reasons for sliding is the friction force from the table is not sufficient to support the horizontal acceleration of the mass center when toppling, so the rod itself has to obtain a horizontal acceleration and apply the inertia force to play the role of supporting the acceleration of the mass center. This phenomenon and converted the question into a mathematical model. We pick the contacting point between the rod and the horizontal surface as the reference point for our computing of physical quantity, therefore the torque caused by friction and normal force can be ignored. With this model, we finished the theoretical analysis of the effects of varying static friction and dynamic friction coefficients on the phenomenon, with computer simulations verified.

    Effect of front windshield angle on drag coefficient of electric vehicles

    This research explores the relationship between the drag coefficient and front windscreen angles regarding to automobile engineering. The previous research indicates that the best angle for the front windscreen to reduce the drag coefficient was less than 45 degrees, and the tilt of the bonnet has a linear relationship with the drag coefficient. However, the ideal angle for the windshield to achieve the lowest possible drag coefficient is also governed by other factors such as road roughness and overall aerodynamic design. As 2D simulations can prove to be an invaluable resource for aerodynamic design, allowing designers to make sharp changes and test new ideas efficiently on the digital stage, this paper uses NURBS modelling techniques and ANSYS CFD-Post to predict liquid dynamics, further enhancing the prediction of the simulation. It can be concluded that reducing the drag coefficient will increase the range of electric vehicles, especially in severe weather conditions like winter. Overall, reducing air resistance has several positive effects on a vehicle, including stability, energy consumption, acceleration, and forward speed.

    Status quo and improvements of timekeeping in GNSSs

    A time offset of 1 microsecond could lead to 300-meter positioning offset for a global navigational satellite system (GNSS). Therefore, appropriately evaluating and improving the clock performance onboard GNSS satellites are critical. The research methods and conclusions of papers written in distinct periods about their contemporary satellites clocks are chronologically synthesized. The satellites clocks among the same and different GNSSs are compared, with the time primarily centered around the launching and development of BeiDou-2 and BeiDou-3. It is found that passive hydrogen maser (PHM) and rubidium atomic frequency standard (RAFS) have a better performance than cesium (Cs) clocks, and PHM are among the best clock onboard satellites so more attention may be given to its development. Two major factors affecting timekeeping precision are the selection of clock manufacturers and clock types. The European manufacturing technique is pioneering, but the RAFS and PHM independently developed by China in recent years indicate a good performance. To improve navigation service, an accurate evaluation of satellites performance should be conducted, and the results can be used to assign the weight of satellite differently in computing navigation information.

    Turbofan and turbojet engines: Working process and future development

    This article is based on the fundamental thermodynamics theory to analyze the difference between the turbojet and turbofan engines. The result of this article is that the turbofan engine is suitable for commercial use since it consumes less fuel and has a higher bypass ratio than the turbojet engine. But low bypass ratio engines can serve the military since they have a smaller volume and higher speed, suitable for air combat. The turbojet engine can travel at a supersonic speed since it has extremely high jet flow from the nozzle and much higher fuel consumption, so it is for military use. This article also analyses two cases: i) How the number of fan blades and outlet guide vans affects the noise of the engine produced. ii) When airplanes fly through volcanic ash, how does the ash damage the airplane and the engine? The engineer found that 55 outlet guide vans are better than 37. To prevent airplanes from flying through volcanic ash, satellite weather photos start to show the volcanic ash area.

    Nowadays, as traditional fossil energy sources are in decline, renewable energy sources are being actively sought, and the use of renewable energy is receiving widespread attention. The Dish engine solar power plant is vital in using solar energy. The Stirling engine is the fundamental element of the power plant, responsible for energy conversion. And the internal regenerator has an essential influence on the engine's performance. Hence, this paper focuses on the analysis and improvement of the regenerator. Heat transportation determines its efficiency, while the regenerator is the core component. An efficient Stirling engine cannot occur without a high-quality regenerator. This paper uses simulation experiments to explore the impact of various materials on the regenerator's performance. By comparing the regenerator performance of filled copper foam and stainless-steel mesh, it was found that the copper foam regenerator had a faster start time, while the stainless-steel mesh regenerator had a higher thermal capacity. After this conclusion, an optimized regenerator is designed, filled with different materials at each end according to the material properties. After simulations, it can be concluded that this enhancement improves the regenerator's performance, increasing the Stirling engine's overall efficiency.

    Using Python programs to determine the secondary eclipse depth of Kepler-12 b and its geometric albedo

    The discovery of Hot Jupiter in 1995 marks the beginning of a new era in Astrophysics, and deep space observatory provides valuable data that helps us understand the evolution of the universe and extrasolar systems. This paper reports on the secondary eclipse depth and the geometric albedo of a hot Jupiter “Kepler-12 b” with a planet radius of 1.695±0.03R_J, and the use of Python programs helps derive the results. The Python programs also help draw the figures in this work with data from Spitzer IRAC, an infrared camera designed to detect near- and mid-infrared light. The conclusion drawn from the work is that the orbital period is 4.401 days and the geometric albedo A_g= 〖0.17〗_(-0.08)^(+0.08) . This work points out that the relatively low geometric albedo of Kepler-12b could imply that Kepler-12 b is a pM-class planet. The distinguishing factor between a hot Jupiter of pL-class and one of pM-class is the variation in their spectra and the temperature difference between their day and night sides.
