We present an analysis of the electronic and plasmonic behavior of periodic planar distributions of sufficiently wide graphene nanoribbons, for which a thorough ab initio investigation is practically unfeasible. Our approach is based on a semi-analytical model whose only free parameter is the charge carrier velocity, which we estimate by density-functional theory calculations on graphene. By this approach, we show that the plasmon resonance energies of the scrutinized systems fall in the lower THz band, relevant for optoelectronic and photonic applications. We further observe that these energies critically depend on the charge carrier concentration, ribbon width, electron relaxation rate, and in-plane transferred momentum angle, thus, suggesting a tunability of the associated light-matter modes.

Electroosmosis and surcharge preloading represent two effective soil consolidation methodologies. Their combined application has been proven to be effective in shortening the consolidation period and mitigating the degradation of electroosmotic consolidation performance due to crack generation. In this study, an axisymmetric free-strain consolidation analytical model incorporating a continuous drainage top boundary was established.

The magnetic acceleration noise (MAN) that stems from the eddy current dissipation of a test mass (TM) serves as an important source of noise for space inertial sensors. Given the problem that the eddy current dissipation magnetic acceleration noise (ECDMAN) of a cubic TM defies analytical solutions, an analytical model of ECDMAN for a spherical TM, which has the same volume as the cubic TM, is systematically derived on the basis of the principles of electromagnetism and the fluctuation-dissipation theorem, and this model can be used as an approximate analytical model for the evaluation of this noise term. Based on the approximate analytical model, with the TM of the LISA Pathfinder (LPF) as the research object, this paper obtains a modification coefficient using the approach of combining the analytical method with the finite element method (FEM), and establishes a semi-analytical model of ECDMAN for the cubic TM.

Redistribution of pollutants between different solid phases occurs frequently in field and laboratory settings. Examples include the input of urban particles carrying pollutants into soils or rivers with suspended particles or passive sampling. Since multiple mass transfer mechanisms are involved and natural particles typically are very heterogeneous, modeling of sorption/desorption kinetics is challenging.

This study focuses on solving the Caudrey-Dodd-Gibbon ( ) equation using the Khater II ( ) method and the Variational Iteration ( ) method. The equation is a pivotal mathematical model in nonlinear wave dynamics, essential for understanding the evolution, interaction, and preservation of wave forms in dispersive media. Its applications span various fields, including fluid dynamics, nonlinear optics, and plasma physics, where it plays a crucial role in analyzing solitons and complex wave interactions.
