In this work, we examine the classical Burgers equation and investigate the effects of a random force on the wave field. Two scenarios are considered: the impact of a random force on different wave fields within the viscous Burgers equation and the effect of a periodic random force in the inviscid Burgers equation. For the first case, we demonstrate that the random force primarily causes wave fronts to increase or decrease depending on the dispersion parameter. For an initially deformed sinusoidal wave, the external force causes the mean wave field to spread out and dampen over time. The Cole-Hopf transformation is also used to obtain asymptotically the averaged wave field in certain regimes. For the inviscid problem, we assume the random force to be periodic with random phase to show that the mean wave field corresponds to the solution of the classical inviscid Burgers equation without external forces.

The effect of the distribution and concentration of rare earth (RE) element Y, crack orientation, temperature, and strain rate on the crack propagation behavior of the Mg alloys is investigated by molecular dynamics/Monte Carlo simulations. The results show that the RE element Y tends to form locally short-range order structures in the Mg alloys, and the introduction of the RE element Y can enhance the fracture toughness of the Mg alloys. The results indicate that with the increase of Y concentration, the crack propagation mode of the Mg alloys shifts from a mode, dominated by the dislocation emissions at the crack tip and the crack cleavage propagation to a mode dominated by the solid-state amorphization and the slip of amorphous bands. In addition, the results show that the faster the strain rate, the slower the crack propagation speed, and the crack propagation resistance increases with increasing temperature.

It is not uncommon for firms to gain access to the information concerning not only the previous decisions of others but also their decision-making methodologies. However, few literatures study the information concerning decision-making methodologies in dynamic Cournot games. This paper considers a dynamic Cournot game with adaptive expectation. It is assumed that each firm extra acquires the information regarding the other competitors' decision-making methodologies, and the information will be employed to estimate the outputs of other firms in the next period. The information leads to a decline in the stability of the original Cournot-Nash equilibrium, as demonstrated by both theoretical analysis and numerical simulation. It implies that boundedly rational firms need be vigilant for the information concerning decision-making methodologies in certain cases.

The TOPSIS method identifies the spreading influences nodes by gathering different methods together with equal weights regardless the physics that different methods are effective for different scenarios. In this paper, by introducing the cascading model to measure the target node's influence, we present a weighted TOPSIS method by taking into 1% nodes cascading influence ability to calculate the weight. Experimental results for nine real-world networks show that, comparing with the traditional TOPSIS method, average speaking, accuracy of the WTOPSIS could be enhanced by 4.471%.

Underwater images are often accompanied by color casts, and color restoration of underwater images remains a challenging problem. To tackle these degradation challenges, we present a depth estimation method based on image segmentation, and completes image color restoration on this basis. Specifically, we introduce image segmentation techniques to partition the image into discrete blocks. Our findings indicate a linear correlation between the average b component value in the Lab color space for each block and the corresponding image depth. Subsequently, the segmented images are sorted by depth to facilitate the identification of image blocks that are optimal for estimating backscatter. Local lighting estimation is then performed on these blocks to calculate the image transmission map, thereby completing the color restoration of the underwater image. The color restoration achieved through this method outperforms some advanced techniques. Our image color restoration method also demonstrates good accuracy and stability across different datasets.
水下图像通常会出现偏色现象,因此水下图像的色彩还原仍然是一个具有挑战性的问题。为了解决这些退化难题,我们提出了一种基于图像分割的深度估计方法,并在此基础上完成了图像色彩还原。具体来说,我们引入了图像分割技术,将图像分割成离散的块。我们的研究结果表明,每个区块在 Lab 色彩空间中的平均 b 分量值与相应的图像深度之间存在线性相关。随后,按深度对分割后的图像进行排序,以便识别出最适合估计反向散射的图像块。然后对这些图块进行局部照明估计,计算图像传输图,从而完成水下图像的色彩还原。通过这种方法实现的色彩还原效果优于一些先进技术。我们的图像色彩还原方法在不同的数据集上也表现出良好的准确性和稳定性。

We present a theoretical study of the propagation of acoustic waves in a 3D infinite medium containing a periodic array of small identical inclusions of arbitrary shape with transmission conditions on their interfaces. The inclusion size a is much smaller than the array period. We present the dispersion relation and show that there are exceptional frequencies for which the solution is a cluster of waves propagating in several different directions. Different clusters may contain waves with the same direction, and the frequencies of the waves depend on the clusters but not on the direction of waves. We show that global gaps do not exist if a is small enough. The notion of local gaps which depends on the choice of the wavevector k, is introduced and discussed. The location of local gaps for a medium with a simple cubic lattice of identical inclusions is determined.

The aim of this study is to elucidate the mechanisms of irradiation damage to reactor pressure vessel (RPV) steel using a machine learning algorithms and high-throughput calculations. Various Fe-Ni alloy structures were generated based on structural enumeration for high-throughput first-principles calculations, with the Fe-Ni interatomic potential trained using a Gaussian approximation function. Simulations were conducted using LAMMPS software to investigate the effects of neutron irradiation on the tensile properties of Fe-0.74 wt.% Ni alloy, utilizing the well-established Fe-Ni interatomic potential. The irradiation dose significantly impacts defects in the Fe-Ni alloy. Synergistic effects of alloy solute element content and temperature with irradiation defects reveal that defect numbers at irradiation points increase linearly with MD-dpa and PKA energy. During irradiation, Ni atoms diffuse via the exchange with vacancy, synergizing with other Ni elements. Notably, Ni content inversely affects yield stress, resulting in lower yield stress in irradiated materials compared to pre-irradiation levels. While temperature inversely affects yield stress, its synergistic effect with defects increases yield stresses post-irradiation, known as irradiation hardening. Post-irradiation, the yield strain increases, and a flat plateau stress region is observed in Fe-Ni alloys. Ni atoms act as a buffer during the stretching process, contributing to a relatively gentle slope stress region despite increasing stress. The distribution of Ni atoms significantly influences the stress-strain curve, in which the aggregated Ni atoms decrease yield strength, whereas uniform distribution increases it, highlighting Ni atoms as buffering role during stretching process. These simulations yield valuable insights for exploring scalability and enhancing the development of irradiation hardening and embrittlement models.

In this paper, a family of exact solutions to N-coupled nonlinear Schrödinger (N-CNLS) equations including bright and dark solitons, Akhmediev breathers, Kuznetsov-Ma breathers, and rogue waves are derived with the aid of a generic nonlinear wave assumption. As an application of the solutions, we present a scheme to realize amplitude coding in an identical waveguide system. Furthermore, by a general self-similar transformation method, exact controllable similaritons of N-coupled inhomogeneous NLS (N-CINLS) equations are constructed under relaxed compatibility conditions. Flexible modulations of similaritons are investigated in a typical inhomogeneous system. Based on the general self-similar transformation, we further study various and novel modulations of composite similariton of 2-CINLS regimes. The various similaritons presented here may be expected to find application in the control and transmission of nonlinear waves in realizable complex systems including those based on optical fibers and Bose-Einstein condensates.

Flood spreading in metro stations is a dangerous hazard that frequently causes casualties and property losses. However, pedestrian evacuation under flood spreading scenarios has not been fully investigated. To fill this gap,we propose an extend Floor-Field model incorporating flood spreading and exit selection behaviour of individuals. In the model, the dynamic flood spreading process on metro platforms is expressed by using a simulation software named Mike21. The optimal exit selected by pedestrians in each step is decided on three factors, that is pedestrian density around the exit, pedestrian distance to the exit, and water depth at the exit. Meanwhile, the movement speed of pedestrain also changes with the water depth at each time step. Based on this, the transition probability to neighbor cell including static field, dynamic field, height field, and water flow field is calculated. This results in a flood evacuation model considering the pedestrian's behaviour when choosing an exit. The effects of flooding, pedestrian density, different exit selection behaviours, water flow field, and inlet flow on evacuation were thoroughly analysed. The analysis demonstrates that the likelihood of flooding significantly impacts the evacuation of pedestrians from the subway station; the more flooding is taken into account, the more influential the impact. In addition, the effect of inlet flow on evacuation is also noteworthy; considering exit selection behaviour can significantly increase the effectiveness of evacuation. The study's findings can be used to develop evacuation plans for flooded metro stations.
