COEXISTENCE OF SINGLE- AND MULTI-PHOTON PROCESSES DUE TO LONGITUDINAL COUPLINGS BETWEEN SUPERCONDUCTING FLUX QUBITS AND EXTERNAL FIELDS

Coexistence of single- and multi-photon processes due to longitudinal couplings between superconducting flux qubits and external fields

In contrast to natural atoms, the potential energies for superconducting flux qubit (SFQ) circuits can be artificially controlled.When the inversion symmetry of the potential energy is broken, we find that multi-photon processes can coexist in multi-level SFQ circuits.Moreover, there are not only transverse but also longitudinal couplings between t

Managing Information Uncertainty in Wave Height Modeling for the Offshore Structural Analysis through Random Set

This chapter presents a reliability study for an offshore jacket Body Brush structure with emphasis on the features of nonconventional modeling.Firstly, a random set model is formulated for modeling the random waves in an ocean site.Then, a jacket structure is investigated in a pushover analysis to identify the critical wave direction and key struc

The effect of temperature and strain rate on elongation to failure in nanostructured Al-0.2wt% Zr alloy fabricated by ARB process

A nano/ultra-fine grain Al-0.2wt% Zr alloy was produced by accumulated roll bonding (ARB) processafter 10 cycles.The fraction of high angle grain Card Upsell boundaries increased from 8% to 65.4% during 10passes during ARB process.This alloy was subjected to tensile test at different temperatures (523,573and 623 K) and strain rates (0.1 and 0.01 s-
