A simple one-dimensional model for aqueous solution is applied to study the solvation thermodynamics of a simple solute (here, a hard-rod particle) in mixtures of waterlike particles and a cosolvent. Two kinds of cosolvents are considered, one that stabilizes and one that destabilizes the "structure of water." The results obtained for the Gibbs energy, entropy, enthalpy, and heat capacity of solvation are in qualitative agreement with experimental data on the solvation of argon and methane in mixtures of water and ethanol and of water and p-dioxane.

Frequency diversity array-multiple-input multiple-output (FDA-MIMO) radar realizes an angle- and range-dependent system model by adopting a slight frequency offset between adjacent transmitter sensors, thereby enabling potential target localization. This paper presents FDA-MIMO radar-based rapid target localization via the reduction dimension root reconstructed multiple signal classification (RDRR-MUSIC) algorithm. Firstly, we reconstruct the two-dimensional (2D)-MUSIC spatial spectrum function using the reconstructed steering vector, which involves no coupling of direction of arrival (DOA) and range.

Petroleum hydrocarbon pollution causes significant damage to soil, so accurate prediction and early intervention are crucial for sustainable soil management. However, traditional soil analysis methods often rely on statistical methods, which means they always rely on specific assumptions and are sensitive to outliers. Existing machine learning based methods convert features containing spatial information into one-dimensional vectors, resulting in the loss of some spatial features of the data.

Discontinuous Structural Transitions in Fluids with Competing Interactions.

Entropy (Basel)

January 2025

Instituto de Energías Renovables, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), Temixco 62580, Mexico.

This paper explores how competing interactions in the intermolecular potential of fluids affect their structural transitions. This study employs a versatile potential model with a hard core followed by two constant steps, representing wells or shoulders, analyzed in both one-dimensional (1D) and three-dimensional (3D) systems. Comparing these dimensionalities highlights the effect of confinement on structural transitions.

Entropy algorithms are widely applied in signal analysis to quantify the irregularity of data. In the realm of two-dimensional data, their two-dimensional forms play a crucial role in analyzing images. Previous works have demonstrated the effectiveness of one-dimensional increment entropy in detecting abrupt changes in signals.

Density Classification with Non-Unitary Quantum Cellular Automata.

Entropy (Basel)

December 2024

School of Mathematical and Physical Sciences, Macquarie University, Sydney, NSW 2109, Australia.

The density classification (DC) task, a computation which maps global density information to local density, is studied using one-dimensional non-unitary quantum cellular automata (QCAs). Two approaches are considered: one that preserves the number density and one that performs majority voting. For number-preserving DC, two QCAs are introduced that reach the fixed-point solution in a time scaling quadratically with the system size.
