The time-delay error system is described by utilising a hybrid nanofluid in nonlinear system and the looped Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional with a splitting sampling interval. In order to ensure that the resulting closed-loop system is reliable, it is asymptotically stable and has the required dissipative efficiency. A master/slave synchronisation technique is employed to synchronise the hybrid nanofluid in nonlinear system. In addition, we employed a sampling interval <span>([t_{k}, t_{k+1}])</span> and the fractional parameter <span>({tilde{beta }})</span> in the interval [0,1] has split into <span>([t_{k}, t_{k} +{tilde{beta }} varsigma _{1}(t)], [ t_{k} +{tilde{beta }} varsigma _{1}(t), t], [t, t +{tilde{beta }} varsigma _{2}(t)])</span> and <span>( [ t +{tilde{beta }} varsigma _{2}(t), t_{k+1}])</span>. Then, the synchronised hybrid system utilises the looped Lyapunov stability theory and positive definite matrix. The simulation results not only confirm the theoretical predictions but also demonstrate enhanced control performance, improved synchronisation accuracy and robust dynamic stability. Furthermore, this study highlights the impact of time-delay, uncertainty and fractional parameter variations on system stability. The proposed approach provides a new direction for advanced control strategies in nanofluid-based nonlinear systems, offering potential applications in engineering and industrial processes.

To provide a theoretical basis for using surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) mechanism to detect nanoplastics of different sizes, this work employed lasers to irradiate the substrate composed of a bowl-shaped particle-in-cavity structure and nanoplastics. Then, the electric field distribution was obtained using the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. By altering the curvature of the Ag nanobowl and the size of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), the electric field enhancement capability of this SERS structure can be ameliorated. It is found that when the diameter of AuNPs is 30 nm, the larger the nanoplastics, the more suitable the structure with smaller curvature as a substrate. But when the diameter of AuNPs is 40 nm, the larger the nanoplastics, the more suitable the structure with larger curvature as a substrate. AuNPs with a size of 40 nm are generally superior to those with a size of 30 nm. To verify the feasibility of this SERS structure for detecting various nanoplastics, we tested a range of nanoplastic materials. The results prove that the materials of nanoplastics will not have a significant impact on the detection. Moreover, a multi-hot-spot system is analysed to reveal the SERS signal enhancement mechanism. A laser of 785 nm can produce stronger ‘localised hot spots’ (LHSs) and weaker ‘volume hot spots’ (VHSs) than a laser of 532 nm. The issue of nanoplastic detection is optimistically poised for resolution, as the hot spots within the bowl-shaped particle-in-cavity structure can effectively approach and surround nanoplastics, stimulating highly intense SERS signals that demonstrate their promising application in nanoplastic detection.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":743,"journal":{"name":"Pramana","volume":"99 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145171773","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Asher Peres gave a remarkably simple proof of quantum contextuality in a four-dimensional Hilbert space of two spin-1/2 particles. Peres’ argument is enormously simpler than that of Kochen and Specker. Peres contextuality demonstrates a logical contradiction between quantum mechanics and non-contextual hidden variable models by showing an inconsistency when assigning non-contextual definite values to a certain set of quantum observables. In this work, we present a similar proof in time with a temporal version of the Peres-like argument. In analogy with the two-particle version of Peres’ argument in the context of spin measurements at two different locations, we examine here single-particle spin measurements at two different times <span>(t=t_1)</span> and <span>(t=t_2)</span>. We adopt three classical assumptions for time-separated measurements, which are demonstrated to conflict with quantum mechanical predictions. Consequently, we provide a non-probabilistic proof of certified quantumness in time, without relying on inequalities, demonstrating that our approach can certify the quantumness of a device through single-shot, time-separated measurements.

The coastal regions have experienced extensive urbanisation and rapid population growth, driven by the advancements of global economy. Consequently, this region is particularly susceptible to severe damages from a range of natural disasters, with tsunamis posing a significant threat. This vulnerability is evident by the occurrence of several devastating tsunami events in the 21st century, which have highlighted the exposure of certain regions to such catastrophic events. In this study, both the first integral method and the sub-ODE method are thoroughly discussed and applied to the GKdV equation. These techniques are employed to derive and analyse exact solutions, providing a deeper understanding of the behaviour and dynamics of the equation in geophysical contexts. The obtained results will enrich the understanding of the dynamics of tsunami models and provide deep insights into the propagation of nonlinear tsunami waves. The Coriolis parameter and the velocity of the travelling wave are considered to have a significant impact on tsunami waves.
