On strong semismoothness and superlinear convergence of complementarity problems over homogeneous cones by Nguyen, Hai Ha

“…In Chapter 1, we first review several literature and relevant results that lead to the ideas of the main problems discussed within the thesis. The subsequent parts provide the basic notations and de nitions for basic concepts regarding to the main classes of cones we consider in the thesis, including positive semi-de nite (PSD) cones, symmetric cones and second-order cones (SOCs). …”

Bubble translation at low-frequency actuation in a resonator-shaped microfluidic chamber by Shang, Xiaopeng, Huang, Xiaoyang, Yang, Chun

“…The experimental results show that under the actuation at 1 kHz, the bubbles are observed to occur near the center of the chamber, grow up in size and then move upstream against the main flow. The bubble translation upstream against the main flow is attributed to the attraction of the image bubbles which exist behind the chamber sidewall.…”
