在浪碎之前
本研究以模擬實驗探討波浪在斜坡海灘上的行為。實驗在長1.8公尺、寬0.75公尺的透明水波槽中進行,以長0.90公尺、寬0.60公尺的木板在深水區產生單峰波向淺水區前進,同時以數位錄影機錄影後進行分析。結果發現單峰波由深水進入淺水,波速會變慢,但當波高對水深的比值增加到一定值時,波速隨水深變淺而變快,波高也變高。當比值繼續增加,波前方的水面形成垂直的水牆,接著波就碎了。如果坡度較緩,碎波點會離水岸線較遠,水牆維持的時間也較長。有趣的是,水波槽中的單峰波移動時,有蠕動現象,波寬會伸縮,波高會起伏,波速也會些微地忽快忽慢。 ;This study simulates the behavior of the wave on a sloping beach. Experiments are performed in a sloping wave tank. A paddle wave maker at the deeper end generates single crest waves. To analyze the wave height, speed and breaking point, a digital camera is used. The results show that when the wave moves toward the coast, the shallower the water is, the slower the wave moves. But when the ratio (wave-height/water-depth) exceeds a critical value, it turns out that when the water is shallower, the wave speed becomes faster and the wave height, higher. As the ratio keeps on increasing, the front part of wave becomes a vertical water-wall, and then breaks. If the slope is gentler, the breaking point will be farther from the coast and the water-wall will keep for a longer time. An interesting phenomenon is also found that a single crest wave squirms with slightly undulated changing of width, height, and speed while it propagates in the sloping wave tank.
培地茅根系碎形維度及抗拉力
本研究首先確認培地茅根系具有碎形之基本特性,再進一步以方格覆蓋法計算之碎形維度來分析培地茅根系在不同時間及環境因素下的生長。主要探討碎形維度與抓地力之關係,並設計以實際根系模型來加以模擬,並發展出一可描述抓地力與碎形維度及深度關係的方程式。我們的結論為:(1) 經由方格覆蓋法之計算,培地茅此種植物,不管是整個根系或單枝根,均具有碎形基本特性,適合進一步實驗研究。(2) 碎形維度會隨著培地茅生長時間增長而增加,並且在自然光照及30℃左右會有較大值,而種植於土壤中根系發展較廣,其碎形維度比種植於沙耕中來的高。(3) 實驗結果顯示,抓地力受碎形維度及根系深度兩因素影響,而培地茅根系對土壤有較強的抓地力,推測是因為兩者根系皆又深又長,土中培地茅根碎形維度較大,接觸面積較廣,而又進一步以矽膠模型做實驗驗證。(4) 矽膠模型之目的在於減少難控制之自然變因,實驗之前,測量了根系模型與洋菜凍之基本性質,實驗結果顯示抓地力與碎形維度及根系深度皆呈正向關係,可用數學方程式加以描述。This project is mainly a research into the fractal dimension of the vetiver root system. First, we confirm the vetiver root system has the basic fractal structure by checking its self-similarity, then using box-counting method to calculate fractal dimension. We begin with a fundamental investigation into the relation between different time and environmental factors and fractal dimension. Then we move to our main point: the relation between fractal dimension and its pull-out resistance. In the next step, we make a fundamental silicon model, simulating the vetiver root system, to continue our experiments. In the end, we develop a formula that can describe the relation between its pull-out resistance, roots depth and fractal dimension. Here are our conclusions: (1) After using box-counting method to calculate fractal dimension, we discover that not only the whole vetiver root system but also a single vetiver root has the basic fractal structure. (2) Fractal dimension increases when time goes on. Also the value of fractal dimension is larger in natural sunlight and the temperature at about 30℃.The vetiver root system grows more widely in soil than those in sand. That’s why it has larger fractal dimension. (3) Data shows that its pull-out resistance is influenced by both fractal dimension and the depth of the roots. The vetiver roots, in the meantime, show greater pull-out resistance than some other plants. Thus we draw the assumption that the vetiver root system grows deep and wide, and in natural soil its fractural dimension is greater and reaches greater area. Therefore, a silicon model is constructed to further confirm the findings of the experiment.(4) The design of the silicon model is to reduce the uncontrollable variables in nature. Before starting the experiment, we measured some basic characteristics of the silicon model, including density and angle of repose. Furthermore, the experiment demonstrates that pull-out resistance and fractural dimension have a commensurate mutual relation: the stronger the pull-out resistance, the wider the fractural dimension and the deeper the root system. Thus we derive a math formula to describe this relation.
利用奈米色料製作彩色蠶繭之研究
由於奈米科技進步,奈米材料應用在產業上具有多功能的性質。本研究使用不同波美度的色料餵食家蠶,以找出最佳的彩色蠶繭色澤,並研究其如何影響家蠶所結出的蠶繭及色料附著在蠶繭上的絲。同時對色料附著的蠶繭進行水洗、光照、微結構的觀察,以試圖找出色料與波美度之最佳組合參數。由本實驗結果得知,利用奈米色料溶液60 ml,在紅色:1.048、藍:1.058、黃:1.039 的參數下,混合飼料30g,可獲得最佳的彩色蠶繭結繭成功率、均勻度較佳、耐褪色與耐洗滌等優點,並且可獲得表面結構光滑且較細的絲徑,約為19.87μm。相對的,一般色料粒徑為微米級,色彩度優於奈米色料,但表面結構較奈米色料粗糙且線徑較粗,約為21.51μm,易於褪色及不耐洗滌。 Because of the great progress of nano-technology, it has the quality of multi-functions to make use of nano-materials on industrial property. The purpose of this study is to find the best colored silkworm cocoons by mixing different consistency of pigments to feed silkworms. At the same time, this study wished to explore how the different consistency of pigments influenced the silkworm cocoons that the silkworms produced. Besides, in order to find the better association between pigments and Baume degrees, this study exposed the cocoons under different lights, washed with different detergents and take observations of micro-structure of the cocoons. The results of this study are as follows: using the nano-pigments 60 ml in different density, that is, red:1.048, blue:1.058, and yellow:1.039, then mixed them with silkworms’ forage 30g , in this way, best successful ratio to get colored cocoons, desired high visual effects in color, well distribution, long duration and strong resistance to detergents agents are obtained. In addition, we can still get glossy appearance and fine cocoons; the wire diameter is about the size of 19.87μm. On contrast, feeding with the ordinary pigments, the degree of colored silk is better than feeding with the nano-pigments, but the appearance of cocoons are rough and the wire diameter is about the size of 21.51μm.
費氏蛇
At the website “MathLinks EveryOne,” we found a problem “Snakes on a chessboard,” which was raised by Prof. Richard Stanley. The following is the problem. A snake on the m n chessboard is a nonempty subset S of the squares of the board with the following property: Start at one of the squares and continue walking one step up or to the right, stopping at any time. The squares visited are the squares of the snake. Prove that the total number of ways to cover an m × n chessboard with disjoint snakes is a product of Fibonacci numbers. We call the total number of ways to cover a chessboard with disjoint snakes “the snake-covering number.” This problem hasn’t been solved since it was posted on September 18, 2004, so it aroused our interest to study it. First, we used the way in which we added each block to the chessboard, and therefore we discovered some regulations about the snake-covering number of the1 × n , 2 × n and 3 × n chessboard. Through “recursive relation” and “mathematical induction”, we proved the general term of the snake-covering number of the1 × n , 2 × n and 3 × n chessboard. In the following study, we found a key method in which we added a group of blocks to the chessboard. Finally, we proved the general term of the snake-covering number of the m × n chessboard. Also, we discovered the way to figure out the snake-covering number of the nonrectangular chessboard.在網站“ MathLinks EveryOne ”中,我們找到了一個有趣的問題“棋然上的蛇” ( Snakes on a chessboard ) ,這個問題是由教授 Richard Stanley 所提出。問題如下:在m x n棋盤形格子上,蛇由任意一格出發,但蛇的走法只能往右 → ,往上↑,或停住 ‧ 若此蛇已停住,將由另一條蛇來走,且不同蛇走過的格子不可重疊”證明:將 m × n 棋盤形格子完全覆蓋的總方法數為費氐( Fibonacci )數列某些項的乘積。我們將把棋盤形格子完全覆蓋的所有方法數稱之為“蛇填充數” 由於這個問題自從 2004年 9 月 18 日被登在網站上後,還沒有人提出解答,於是引發了我們研究的興趣。首先,我們使用了將一個一個格子加到棋盤上的方法,並發現了 l × n 、 2 x n、 3 × n 棋盤形格子蛇填充數的一些規律。我們使用遞迴關係及數學歸納法來證明 l x n 、 2 x n , 3 × n 棋盤形格子蛇填充數的一般項。在接下來的研究中我們發現一個特別的方法,一次增加數個方塊 ‧ 最後我們證明了,m x n, ,棋然形格子的蛇填充數的一般項 ‧ 而且,我們也找到如何求出不規則棋盤形格子的蛇填充數。

太陽短期活動對地球磁場與大氣溫度異常的影響
This study analyzed how short-term solar activities interact with the earth atmosphere, by using two statistic methods: Diffusion Entropy Analysis (DEA), and Standard Deviation Analysis (SDA). Since solar activities influence the Earth atmosphere in its radiating heat and magnetic field, we use DEA and SDA to calculate the exponents, H and δ, of the scaling law in three time series: “the intensity of solar flare” (representing by SOLAR H-alpha flare index), “magnetic anomaly of magnetosphere” and “sea surface temperature anomaly”. The values of H and δ show the time memory and correlative relationship between the event and next event happening in time series. When H = δ = 0.5, events occur in random. When 0.5
關於1234-,2143-,3412-Avoiding Involution排列的統計量探討
令Sn 為{1,2,…,n}任意排列所成的集合,π ? Sn 為其中的一個元素,我們記π = (π(1), π(2),…, π(n))。今給定π ? Sn ,若對所有i,1? i ? n,都有π (π (i)) = i 時,我們稱π 為involution。假設π ? Sn ,並給定σ ? Sm (m ? n),當π 中任取m 項,其大小關係的順序都和σ 不同,我們稱π 避開σ,或稱π 是一個σ-avoiding 排列。在這篇報告中,我們主要分析了2143-avoiding involution,1234-avoiding involution,和3412-avoiding involution 中的一些統計量,給出了十數個結果與幾個猜想。Let Sn be the set of permutations on {1,2,…,n} and π ? Sn be an element in Sn. Denote π as π = (π(1), π(2),…, π(n)). We say that π is an involution if π(π(i)) = i for every i, 1? i ? n. Given π ? Sn and σ ? Sm (m ? n) , we say that π avoids σ (or π is an σ-avoiding permutation) if π does not contain any m-term subsequence in the order of σ. In this paper, we discuss some classic statistics on 2143-avoiding involutions, 1234-avoiding involutions and 3412-avoiding involutions. We get many new results in this field and give some interesting conjectures.
心手相連的正方形
正方形兩條對角線的交點(即中心點)距四頂點等長,也與四邊等距。如果將正方形的頂點比擬成它的「手」,兩對角線的交點當成它的「心」,則兩個正方形頂點間、中心點間、或頂點與中心點間的線段相連(或重合),就如同「手」或「心」彼此相連。本文即探索當多個正方形間「心手相連」時,衍生圖形間的面積關係。而四個正方形中某幾個頂點相接(邊未重疊),恰圍出兩個三角形的圖形則是本內容討論圖形的主體架構,我們以此架構向外作出「層出不窮」的正方形,再配合中心點連接成四邊形,將推導出這些四邊形與基準正方形(Reference Square)間的面積關係。In a square, the lengths from the intersection point (center point) of two diagonal lines to the four apexes are the same, and so are they from that point to the four sides. If the apexes are “hands” and the intersection point of two diagonal lines is the “heart” of a square, the connection or overlap of two squares’ apexes and apexes, center point and center point, or apexes and center points is just like the connection of hands with hearts. In this article, hence, we are to explore the relation in area of derivative graphs formed by several squares connected “heart in hand.” When some apexes of four squares are overlain without sides overlapped, two triangles are created. And that’s the theme we are going to discuss. Furthermore, we extend the operation to infinitely overlain squares and frame out quadrangles referring to the center points of some squares. Then, the relation in areas of these overlapped squares and the Reference Square would be deduced.
