Preface: The 8th International Symposium on Measurement Techniques for Multiphase Flows

Abstract

We suggest stellar oscillations are responsible for the strange radio behaviors of Anomalous X-ray pulsars and soft Gamma-ray repeaters (AXP/SGRs), within the framework of both solid quark star model and magnetar model. In solid quark star model, the extra voltage provided by oscillations activates the star from under death line to above death line. In magnetar model, oscillations enlarge the radio beam so that increase the possibility to detect it. Later radio emission decays and vanishes as oscillations damp.

An Investigation of a Novel Parallel Computation Scheme Designed for a Simulation of Amino-Acid Leaking Problem inside α-Al₂O₃ Nano-Channels

“…However, to cut-off the amino-acid leaking through ultra-filtration membranes, there still needs to do some researches to understand the physics of how the permeating flow is going through such kind of channel style pores. We have made several progresses both experimentally [2][3][4] and numerically [5,6] to characterize the ultra-filtration features during dialysis process. Moreover, molecular dynamic (MD) simulations [7,8] were applied to study the slip conditions on the surface of the membrane pore (channel style) wall, and the feasibility of Kedem-Katchalsky [9,10] equations used to calculate trans-membrane ultra-filtration flow.…”
