Blowup of Solutions to the Compressible Euler-Poisson and Ideal MHD Systems by Wenming Hu

“…In the present paper, we study the blowup of the solutions to the full compressible Euler system and pressureless Euler-Poisson system with time-dependent damping. By some delicate analysis, some Riccati-type equations are achieved, and then, the finite time blowup results can be derived.…”

Dynamical Variety of Shapes in Financial Multifractality by Stanisław Drożdż, Rafał Kowalski, Paweł Oświȩcimka, Rafał Rak, Robert Gȩbarowski

“…The concept of multifractality offers a powerful formal tool to filter out a multitude of the most relevant characteristics of complex time series. The related studies thus far presented in the scientific literature typically limit themselves to evaluation of whether a time series is multifractal, and width of the resulting singularity spectrum is considered a measure of the degree of complexity involved. …”

Evaluating Lateral Spreading Using Newmark Method Based on Liquefaction Triggering by Yanxin Yang, Junhua Chen, Zhenqiang Zhang, Jianlin Ma

“…In this paper, a simplified prediction method based upon Newmark sliding block analysis was proposed to predict the liquefaction-induced lateral spreading. The acceleration time history beneath the liquefied soil (starting from the triggering time of liquefaction) and the postliquefaction yield acceleration corresponding with the residual shear strength of liquefiable soil were used in the Newmark sliding block analysis. …”

Predicting and synthesizing terahertz spoof surface plasmon polariton devices with a convolutional neural network model by Vahid Najafy, Bijan Abbasi-Arand, Maryam Hesari-Shermeh

“…In addition to the speed of dataset generation, the simple framework of this network has also facilitated the training of the network in a short time. By comparing the network in this study with previous works, it is apparent that in addition to structural and geometrical changes in the unit cell, the designer is afforded greater freedom in determining the material of the incident medium and, for the first time, specifying the angle of incidence of the source. …”
