Application of Grey System Theory in Approximate Calculation of Wave Packet Evolution

Abstract

The study of wave packet is of great significance in quantum mechanics, optics and fluid mechanics. However, in order to solve the strict evolution behavior of wave packet, it is necessary not only to determine the parameters of various physical quantities such as mass, but also to carry out the complex integration process in configuration space and momentum space. In the final analysis, the evolution behavior of wave packet is the evolution behavior of distribution function parameters with time. Using the method of grey system theory, the time-varying parameters are replaced by time-varying response series, and then the formal structure is constructed according to the physical meaning of time evolution to realize the approximate simulation and approximate calculation of wave function expression. The advantage of this method is that it can simulate the evolution of wave packet under the uncertainty of each physical quantity. Based on the grey system theory, this paper uses GM (1,1) model to replace the time response function of wave packet distribution, obtains the simulated evolution behavior of wave packet wave function by means of mathematical techniques such as variational method, and makes error analysis and correction. In practical application, the approximate evolution behavior of wave function can be obtained only by determining the parameters of expansion coefficient of wave function. In this paper, the Gauss wave packet is taken as an example to discuss the method. The grey system theory of mathematical modeling is introduced into physical calculation for the first time, and an approximate calculation method which can be widely used in wave packet evolution calculation is given.

A Geometrically Parameterized Quasi-Stationary 3D Model for High-Frequency Induction Tube Welding

A three-dimensional multiphysics finite element framework for the simulation of high-frequency induction welding of tubes is presented. The model couples a time-harmonic magnetic scalar potential formulation with a stabilized quasi-stationary advection-diffusion heat transport equation, enabling accurate prediction of electromagnetic and thermal fields under industrial operating conditions. The framework incorporates parameterized geometry generation and semi-automated, physics-tailored mesh construction and is implemented using the open-source tools GetDP and Gmsh. Validation against measurements from a commercial induction welding line for AISI 304 stainless steel tubes demonstrates good agreement with operating data. The validated model is subsequently applied to investigate the influence of impeder material by comparing a conventional FeNiZnV ferrite with the soft magnetic composite Ferrotron 559H for the induction welding of AISI 304 stainless steel tubes.

Stress-Testing Dynamical and Generative Downscaling Using Subseasonal Extreme Precipitation Forecasts

Coarse spatial resolution limits the ability of subseasonal prediction models to resolve extreme precipitation. Downscaling with either dynamical or deep generative models can overcome this issue, but the comparative performance of these models for extremes across different atmospheric regimes remains poorly understood. In this work, we evaluate the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model against a diffusion-based generative model by downscaling two physically distinct, extreme precipitation events up to lead times of 3 weeks. For a fair comparison with WRF, which can downscale boundary conditions from different driving models without model-specific training, the diffusion model is trained in an unpaired fashion. Both approaches improve upon the raw European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts forecasts, in comparison to fused rain gauge-radar observations in Switzerland (CombiPrecip), but exhibit regime-dependent strengths. WRF achieves the highest probabilistic skill for a multicell, non-stationary event. Conversely, the diffusion model is more consistent across different performance metrics for the two events, outperforming WRF in a more stationary supercell event. These results demonstrate that explicit dynamical modeling can add value for specific precipitation events for subseasonal lead times, and that generative downscaling adds value more broadly in different situations.

Nonlinear flame describing function and mean shift kinematics of slit flames under combined axial-transverse forcing

This study investigates the nonlinear kinematics of a premixed slit flame using a two-dimensional $G$-equation level-set framework. Results show that combined forcing induces nonlinear saturation in the FDF, characterized by early gain flattening and premature phase drops, which intensify with the transverse forcing amplitude. Kinematic analysis reveals that this geometric nonlinearity manifests as a reduction in the time-averaged flame height, defined as the mean shift. In the quasi-steady limit, this mean shift is analytically quantified via a multivariate asymptotic expansion, where fourth-order terms successfully capture the saturation mechanism at elevated amplitudes. By introducing a scaling parameter to account for transverse dominance, the frequency-dependent decay of the mean shift in the compact limit collapses onto a single master curve, enabling the derivation of a unified theoretical model that integrates this asymptotic response with a second-order low-pass filter. Furthermore, because the mean shift reduces the physical extent of the flame, it alters the wrinkle propagation time. Correcting the Strouhal number using the measured mean shift collapses the dispersed nonlinear FDF curves onto the linear theory prediction. The analysis is further extended to disturbances convected at a finite speed, for which the linear transfer function is derived analytically and the correction with the measured mean shift continues to collapse the nonlinear FDF. These findings establish that the nonlinear FDF behavior under multidimensional forcing is fundamentally governed by the kinematic mean shift, providing a theoretical baseline for decoupling geometric nonlinearities from other thermo-diffusive or hydrodynamic instabilities in turbulent flames.
