A bipartition of G is a bipartition of V (G) with V (G) = V<sub>1</sub> ∪ V<sub>2</sub> and V<sub>1</sub> ∩ V<sub>2</sub> = ∅. If a bipartition satisfies ∥V<sub>1</sub>∣ - ∣V<sub>2</sub>∥ ≤ 1, we call it a bisection. The research in this paper is mainly based on a conjecture proposed by Bollobás and Scott. The conjecture is that every graph G has a bisection (V<sub>1</sub>, V<sub>2</sub>) such that ∀v ∈ V<sub>1</sub>, at least half minuses one of the neighbors of v are in the V<sub>2</sub>;∀v ∈ V<sub>2</sub>, at least half minuses one of the neighbors of v are in the V<sub>1</sub>. In this paper, we confirm this conjecture for some bipartite graphs, crown graphs and windmill graphs.展开更多

To this end, it has developed a computer program for wind resource assessment by measurements of wind speed, direction, temperature, barometric pressure and relative humidity. Measuring equipments were mounted in a wind measurement tower of 10 m high, within the premises of the University of Quintana Roo which is located along the coast. Until this day, there are records over a period of five months of the variables of wind speed, wind direction, temperature, relative humidity and atmospheric pressure. These variables were used for statistical calculations using the Weibull distributions. To give a better use of the calculated data, they were applied to the evaluation of a Pumping System.展开更多

This survey is a part of several studies conducted by the authors on technology in the ancient world. The windmills are the first motor, other than human muscles, and are the ancestors of the modem wind turbines. Some authors＇ virtual reconstructions of old windmills are also presented. The paper shows that the operating principle of many modem machines had already been conceived in the ancient times by using a technology that was more advanced than expected, but with two main differences, as follows： Similar tasks were accomplished by using much less energy; and the environmental impact was nil or very low. Modem designers should sometimes consider simplicity rather than the use of a large amount of energy.展开更多

Windmill start is a common air-starting mode used in micro turbine engine. The windmill starting characteristics are important to the practical use of micro turbine engine. In this paper, the windmill starting characteristics research for a 12 cm diameter （MTE-D） micro turbine engine is carried out by experiment and numerical simulation. The characteristic of rotor mechanical losses at low-speed condition is stud- ied, and the engine common working line of windmill starting process is obtained. Based on the engine windmill characteristics, the propane ignition characteristics under different inflow conditions are researched, and the envelope of propane ignition and propane flameout is determined. The experimental research of fuel supply and ignition characteristics is completed, and the envelope of fuel supply and ignition is obtained. The windmill stage, propane ignition stage, fuel ignition stage and acceleration process from idling-speed to 80% full speed of MTE-D micro turbine engine is optimized, and the optimization windmill starting parameters are collected. The successful wind-mill starting experiment under this condition with engine speed up to 80% full speed indicates that these starting parameters are reasonable. All the starting parameters of MTE-D micro turbine engine obtained in this work are dimensionless parameters, and the conclusions obtained in this study have some reference to other micro turbine engines with the similar structural form and starting process.展开更多

The starting process of windmill before ignition is simulated using a radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) , and the acceleration process after ignition which model is a set of nonlinear equations is solved using a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. The introduction of PSO helped to tackle the problem of divergence caused by traditional iteration methods. The calculated result is in a great agreement with test data, which shows that the presented model has a high accuracy. The starting processes are simulated at different ignition times, and the results are analyzed synthetically. The analysis shows how the ignition time affects the starting performance of engine windmill. The method offers a useful tool for ignition time optimization as well as engine starting performance analysis.展开更多

Mathematically, the generation of nonzero off-diagonal components can break the symmetry of forward and backward scattering coefficients, producing unidirectional windmill scattering. Physically, this windmill scattering originates from the nonreciprocal unidirectional rotation of polarized magnetic charges on the surface of a magnetized gyromagnetic cylinder, which drives the scattering field to radiate outward in the radial direction and unidirectionally emit in the tangential direction. Interestingly, the unidirectional electromagnetic windmill scattering is insensitive to the excitation direction. Moreover, we also discuss the size dependence of unidirectional windmill scattering by calculating the scattering spectra of the gyromagnetic cylinder. These results are helpful for exploring and understanding novel interactions between electromagnetic waves and gyromagnetic materials or structures and offer deep insights for comprehending topological photonic states in gyromagnetic systems from the aspect of fundamental classical electrodynamics and electromagnetics.展开更多
文摘Let G be a graph. A bipartition of G is a bipartition of V (G) with V (G) = V<sub>1</sub> ∪ V<sub>2</sub> and V<sub>1</sub> ∩ V<sub>2</sub> = ∅. If a bipartition satisfies ∥V<sub>1</sub>∣ - ∣V<sub>2</sub>∥ ≤ 1, we call it a bisection. The research in this paper is mainly based on a conjecture proposed by Bollobás and Scott. The conjecture is that every graph G has a bisection (V<sub>1</sub>, V<sub>2</sub>) such that ∀v ∈ V<sub>1</sub>, at least half minuses one of the neighbors of v are in the V<sub>2</sub>;∀v ∈ V<sub>2</sub>, at least half minuses one of the neighbors of v are in the V<sub>1</sub>. In this paper, we confirm this conjecture for some bipartite graphs, crown graphs and windmill graphs.
