The freeterm coefficient and Cauchy principal value ( GPV) integrals are computed by direct methods. Numerical experiments are carried out to validate the computation of free-term coefficient and GPV integrals. The results show that the computation precision of free-term coefficient is very high for various bodies, even with edges and corners, and the convergence speed is fast for CPV integrals for different meshes. The comparison of the second order mean drift force due to wave-current action on a uniform cylinder is made with an analytic solution. It is found that good agreement exists between the present calculation and the analytic solutions. Finally, the numerical code is applied for computing wave-current action on Snorrc TLP.展开更多

Voltage dependent analysis of outward current separated transient and sustained components.The transient component was specifically blocked by 4-AP(1mmol/L).A calcium-dependent outward component was also revealed modulating voltage and external calcium concentration.The fast recovery phase of the AP appears related the sustained outward current whereas the after hyperpolarization(AHP) was blocked by 4AP suggesting a significant contribution of the transient component.Forskolin (FSK),which elevates cAMP,reversibly blocked the majority of the sustained current without influencing the transient. FSK greatly exaggerated the AHP without changing the spike height or duration. These data suggest that several components of the outward current contribute specifically to the gustatory AP and that the AP may be modulated by cyclic nucleotides.展开更多

The wave action concept may be extended and applicated to the study of the mechanism. Considering the effects of moving bottoms and starting from the Navier-Stokes equation of motion of a vinous fluid including the Coriolis force, a generalized mean-flow medel theory for the nearshore region, that is, a set of mean-flow equations and their generalized wave action equation involving the three new kinds of actions termed respectively as the current wave action, the bottom wave action and the dissipative wave action which can be applied to arbitrary depth over moving bottoms and ambient currents with a typical vertical structure, is developed by vertical integration and time-averaglng over a wave peried, thus extending the classical concept, wave action, from the ideal averaged flow conservative system to the real averaged flow dissipative dynamical system, and having a large range of application.展开更多

The study shows that turbid water under the action of the waves can present three types of motion, i. e. significant stratification, fragile stratification and strong mixing. The motion gf turbid;,ater presents significant stratification when (H/D)/root Delta rho/rho less than or equal to 4.5, generally this state is known as density current. The formulas of motion velocity, thickness, and discharge of density current moving on horizontal bottom are derived by use of basic equations such as momemtum equation, equation of energy conservation and continuity equation of fluid. The time-average velocity and the thickness of density current under the action of waves have a relationship with such parameters as relative density (Delta rho/rho), wave height (H), and water depth (D). When these parameters are determined, the time-average thickness and motion velocity of density current are also determined. The relative thickness of density current (D-t/D) decreases with the increase of Delta rho/rho and increases with the increase of H/D. On the other hand, the motion velocity of density current increases with the increase of Delta rho/rho and decreases with the increase of the relative thickness (D-t/D) of density current. It is shown that the calculated results are in agreement with those of the flume experiment.展开更多
