Previous studies have shown the correlation between DSZs layer separation and plate age while correlation for those younger than -60 Ma is suspicious. The lacking of DSZs with layer separation less than 10 km further makes it difficult to precisely estimate such correlation. Thus, we incorporate eight DSZs data determined through local seismicity into globally-determined dataset and reexamine such correlation. The best fitting results show that both a linear model and a square root of plate age can mathematically fit the layer separation well. However, it is difficult to distinguish these two models when plate age is greater than -20 Ma since their difference is less than 2 km. However, if extrapolation is possible, both models should provide physical information that DSZs will not form if there is no subducting lithosphere. As a result, the DSZs cannot be produced until the oceanic lithospheric age becomes greater than 0.9 Ma in the square root model while the linear model gives a misleading result. As such the square root model demonstrates the relationship physically better than the linear one, it still needs further test in the future with more available data, nevertheless, our study might also provide evidence for the suggestion that the plate age is a primary control factor of the DSZs geometry as well as the subducting process which disregards any local tectonic stresses.展开更多

However, the analysis and prediction of interaction lengths have not been sufficiently investigated. First, this study presents a theoretical scaling analysis and validates it through wind tunnel experiments. It conducts detailed control volume analysis of mass conservation, considering the differences between inviscid and viscous cases. Then, three models for analysing interaction length under gradual expansion waves are derived. Related experiments using schlieren photography are conducted to validate the models in a Mach 2.73 flow. The interaction scales are captured at various relative distances between the shock impingement location and the expansion regions with wedge angles ranging from 12° to 15° and expansion angles of 9°, 12°, and 15°. Three trend lines are plotted based on different expansion angles to depict the relationship between normalised interaction length and normalised interaction strength metric. In addition, the relationship between the coefficients of the trend line and the expansion angles is introduced to predict the interaction length influenced by gradual expansion waves. Finally, the estimation of normalised interaction length is derived for various coefficients within a unified form.展开更多

When a laser pulse interacts with a target, relativistic electrons are generated in a period of few femtoseconds and driven away by the ponderomotive force, then a huge charge-separation field forms. In general cases, the ion acceleration is determined by this charge-separation field and the scale length of the plasma density. A general time-dependent solution is obtained to describe laser-plasma isothermal expansions into a vacuum, which is the fundamental theory of the laser-ion acceleration. It is adequate for non-quasi-neutral plasmas and different types of the scale length of the density gradient. The previous solutions are some special cases of our general solution. It is found that there exist both a compression layer of the ion velocity distribution and a potential well for sorue initial conditions. However, many unaccounted idiographic solutions, which may be used to reveal new mechanisms of ion acceleration, may be deduced from our general solutions.展开更多

Initially a normal shock wave is formed in the shock tube which migrates toward the closed end of the tube and that in turn leads to the reflection of shock. Due to the boundary layer interaction with the reflected shock, the bifurcation of shock wave takes place. The bifurcated shock wave then approaches the contact surface and shock train is generated. Till date only a few studies have been conducted to investigate this shock train phenomenon inside the shock tube. For the present study a computational fluid dynamics （CFD） analysis has been performed on a two dimensional axi-symmetric model of a shock tube using unsteady, compressible Navier-Stokes equations. In order to investigate the detailed characteristics of shock train, parametric studies have been performed by varying different parameters such as the shock tube length, diameter, pressure ratio used inside the shock tube.展开更多

As a benefit, more researches are focused on its low-speed ratio performance so as to improve vehicle gradeability and launching acceleration performance. According to the results of computational fluid dynamics（CFD） analysis, hydrodynamic loss inside the stator cascade accounts for 42% of the total energy loss at stalling speed ratio. It is found that upstream flow with large impingement angle results in boundary layer separation at the leading edge, which aggregates hydrodynamic loss and decreases circular flow rate dramatically at low-speed ratio. In this paper, a dual-blade stator is proposed to suppress the boundary layer separation, which is parameterized by using the non-uniform rational B spline（NURBS） method. The mean camber line and blade profile curve are expressed by a three control points quadratic open NURBS and a cubic closed one respectively. The key design parameters included the slot width and suction side shape of the primary blade are analyzed. The most effective slot width is found to be between 4% and 8% chord length, and the boundary layer separation can be suppressed completely by decreasing distribution of momentum moment at the primary blade and adding it to the leading edge of the secondary blade. As a result, circular flow rate and impeller torque capacity is increased by 17.9% and 9.6% respectively at stalling speed ratio, meanwhile, low-speed ratio efficiency is also improved. Maximum efficiency at high-speed ratio decreases by 0.5%, which can be ignored as the work of lock-up clutch. This research focuses on using the dual-blade stator to optimize low-speed ratio performance of the TC, which is benefit to vehicle power performance.展开更多

An appropriate displacement is a basic constraint condition, and the boundary layer separation is an additional one. The parameters of the hull form modification function are used as design variables. At last, the numerical optimization example for lines of after-body of 50000 DWT product oil tanker was provided, which indicated that the propulsion efficiency was improved distinctly by this optimal design method.展开更多

By using laser vapor-screen. schlieren and oil-flow techniques. the test was carried out at Mach numbers of 1.10, 1.53, 2.53, 3.01, and 4.01 for angles of attack from 5°through 25°.Photos of flow off-body and on the surface have been taken. The vapor-screen photos show seven distinct types of flow developed over the delta region on the wing. These types of flow are displayed in a plane of Mach number and angle of attack normal to the leading-edge. In the region of side-edge, there are side vortices formed, and in the downstream of trailing-edge. vortex wakes shed. The variety of bow shock positions at different Mach numbers and the positions of separating lines induced by shock wave with Mach numbers and angles of attack have been obtained. based upon the schlieren plus the vapor-screen photos in the sections. The oil-flow visualization clearly shows primary reattachment. secondary separation. secondary reattachment lines. and side edge vortices on the lee-surface. The results of this test shows in good agreement with other relevant experiments and numerical simulation results.展开更多

The initial and boundary conditions used in the second numerical model were identical to those used in the ϐirst model to measure the spatiotemporal ϐluctuations of the surrounding spherical body’s kinematic and dynamic variables, respectively. The ϐindings revealed that sloshing motion exerts a signiϐicant impact on the boundary layer separation process around the sphere. It was also witnessed that the stage of the sloshing motion controls the temporal lag between the pressure, velocity and water surface level.展开更多

In Arabidopsis thaliana, it is dependent on transcription factor INDEHISCENT （IND）-mediated specification of a separation layer in the dehiscence zone found in the margin between the valves （carpel walls） and the central replum of the developing fruit. It was proposed that IND specifies the separation layer by inducing a local auxin minimum at late stages of fruit development. Here we show that morphological differences between the ind mutant and wild-type fruit already arise at early stages of fruit development, coinciding with strong IND expression in the valve margin. We show that IND-reduced PIN-FORMED3 （PIN3） auxin efflux carrier abundance leads to an increased auxin response in the valve margin during early fruit develop- ment, and that the concomitant cell divisions that form the dehiscence zone are lacking in ind mutant fruit. Moreover, IND promoter-driven ectopic expression of the AGC kinases PINOID （PID） and WAG2 induced indehiscence by expelling auxin from the valve margin at stages 14-16 of fruit development through increased PIN3 abundance. Our results show that IND, besides its role at late stages of Arabi- dopsis fruit development, functions at early stages to facilitate the auxin-triggered cell divisions that form the dehiscence zone.展开更多

Small gas bubbles with diameter smaller than 0.06 mm are released from electrodes on the bottom of a water tank by electrolysis of water. The bubbles induce water flow around them as they rise because of buoyancy. Inside the generated bubble plume, a cylinder with diameter D of 30 mm is placed at 6.5D above the electrodes. The bubbles and water flow around the cylinder are visualized, and the bubble velocity distribution is measured. The experiments elucidate the bubble behavior around the cylinder, the separated shear layers originating at the cylinder surface, their roll-up, the bubble entrainment in the resultant large-scale eddies behind the cylinder, and the vortex shedding from the cylinder.展开更多

According to the real-time weather data,the stress data after the process of wavelet denoising from representative measuring points in different weather conditions is picked to establish the stress response brought by meteorological factors with Layered Separation method,thereby basically eliminating the influence of meteorological factors on the stress of main girders,so that accurate and reliable stress data can be got for steel box girders adjustment and cable-tensioned construction control.展开更多

Their structural and magnetic characteristics were investigated by powder X-ray diffraction （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and vibrating sample magnetometry （VSM）. Measurements of magnetic properties show that the saturation magnetization （Ms） and coercivity （He） of the calcined products increased with increasing cobalt content. The LDH precursor-based product obtained by calcination of a mixture of CoFe^2＋Fe3^＋-LDH and NiFe^2＋Fe^3＋ -LDH powders with a Co/Ni molar ratio of 1：1, exhibits a moderate value of Ms and an increased value of He compared to the corresponding values for an Ni0.5Co0.5Fe2O4 material prepared by calcination of a Co0.5Ni0.5Fe^2＋Fe^3＋-LDH precursor, and a physical mixture of CoFe2O4 and NiFe2O4 with a Co/Ni molar ratio of 1 ： 1. These results may provide a way to regulate magnetic anisotropy of ferrite spinels by varying the composition of the LDH precursors.展开更多

By using laser vapor-screen. schlieren and oil-flow techniques. the test was carried out at Mach numbers of 1.10, 1.53, 2.53, 3.01, and 4.01 for angles of attack from 5°through 25°.Photos of flow off-body and on the surface have been taken. The vapor-screen photos show seven distinct types of flow developed over the delta region on the wing. These types of flow are displayed in a plane of Mach number and angle of attack normal to the leading-edge. In the region of side-edge, there are side vortices formed, and in the downstream of trailing-edge. vortex wakes shed. The variety of bow shock positions at different Mach numbers and the positions of separating lines induced by shock wave with Mach numbers and angles of attack have been obtained. based upon the schlieren plus the vapor-screen photos in the sections. The oil-flow visualization clearly shows primary reattachment. secondary separation. secondary reattachment lines. and side edge vortices on the lee-surface. The results of this test shows in good agreement with other relevant experiments and numerical simulation results.

文摘A theoretical calculation method of off-design performance is developed for an axial flow fan of oil cooling system in helicopter,including calculation of aerodynamic parameters and performance parameters.When calculating inlet shock loss,the shock loss coefficient is obtained by comparing results of theoretical calculation,experimental and numerical calculation.The theoretical results and numerical results show that all air velocity components increase from hub to shroud in main flow area at rated condition.Tip leakage vortex moves downstream as flow rate increases.When flow rate decreases,Re decreases,and boundary layer thickness from hub to shroud area all increases gradually.Tip leakage vortex moves upstream,and secondary loss increases.Low speed area in the passage is widened along with high speed area moving to hub area,influenced by boundary layer separation.Consequently wake area and jet area at fan outlet are both larger than rated condition.Therefore optimization design for off-design performance of the fan is required on aerodynamic parameters influencing fan loss.A reliable method is supplied for estimating altitude performance of lubricating system in helicopter.
文摘This study aimedto investigatethe spatiotemporal variation of hydrodynamic variables around a sphere rigidlyϐixed to the bottom of a sloshing tank.The experimental measurement of the variations of dynamic variables around a body in a sloshing tank requires non‑intrusive measurements that are usually expensive and sometimes inappli‑cable.Therefore,the numerical model could serve as a cost‑effective tool for such problems.A two‑stage analysis was conducted.In theϐirst stage,an experimental study was carried out in a testing system comprising a water tank with uniaxial freedom of movement constructed on a monorail operated by a computer‑controlled step motor.The primary objective of the experiments was to generate reliable data for calibrating the numerical model.During the experiments,the tank’s movements were recorded using an accelerometer and ultrasonic sensors with a sampling frequency of 200 Hz for each.The accelerometer and ultrasonic sensor data were used to impose the motion of the sloshing tank into a Reynolds‑Averaged Navier‑Stokes(RANS)‑based numerical model.The video recordings,which comprised temporalϐluctuations of the water surface,were used to calibrate the Model 1.Once theϐirst numerical model was calibrated based on water surface level records using image processing methods,the second numerical model was constructed to accommodate a rigid spherical body with a 17 mm diameter connected to the bottom of the sloshing tank. The initial and boundary conditions used in the second numerical model were identical to those used in the ϐirst model to measure the spatiotemporal ϐluctuations of the surrounding spherical body’s kinematic and dynamic variables, respectively. The ϐindings revealed that sloshing motion exerts a signiϐicant impact on the boundary layer separation process around the sphere. It was also witnessed that the stage of the sloshing motion controls the temporal lag between the pressure, velocity and water surface level.
文摘Seed dispersal is an important moment in the life cycle of a plant species. In Arabidopsis thaliana, it is dependent on transcription factor INDEHISCENT （IND）-mediated specification of a separation layer in the dehiscence zone found in the margin between the valves （carpel walls） and the central replum of the developing fruit. It was proposed that IND specifies the separation layer by inducing a local auxin minimum at late stages of fruit development. Here we show that morphological differences between the ind mutant and wild-type fruit already arise at early stages of fruit development, coinciding with strong IND expression in the valve margin. We show that IND-reduced PIN-FORMED3 （PIN3） auxin efflux carrier abundance leads to an increased auxin response in the valve margin during early fruit develop- ment, and that the concomitant cell divisions that form the dehiscence zone are lacking in ind mutant fruit. Moreover, IND promoter-driven ectopic expression of the AGC kinases PINOID （PID） and WAG2 induced indehiscence by expelling auxin from the valve margin at stages 14-16 of fruit development through increased PIN3 abundance. Our results show that IND, besides its role at late stages of Arabi- dopsis fruit development, functions at early stages to facilitate the auxin-triggered cell divisions that form the dehiscence zone.
文摘An attempt has been made to explore whether the power relation can be obtained from theoretical considerations. The classical laminar and turbulent boundary layer concepts have been employed to determine appropriate values of the scaling lengths associated with vortex shedding and shear layer frequencies to predict the power law relationship with Reynolds number. The predicted results are in good agreement with experimental results. The findings will provide a greater insight into the overall phenomenon involved.
文摘This study experimentally explores the flow around a cylinder with circular cross-section placed inside a bubble plume. Small gas bubbles with diameter smaller than 0.06 mm are released from electrodes on the bottom of a water tank by electrolysis of water. The bubbles induce water flow around them as they rise because of buoyancy. Inside the generated bubble plume, a cylinder with diameter D of 30 mm is placed at 6.5D above the electrodes. The bubbles and water flow around the cylinder are visualized, and the bubble velocity distribution is measured. The experiments elucidate the bubble behavior around the cylinder, the separated shear layers originating at the cylinder surface, their roll-up, the bubble entrainment in the resultant large-scale eddies behind the cylinder, and the vortex shedding from the cylinder.

文摘Sutong Bridge is a cable-stayed bridge with a main span of 1 088 m. 370 high-precision stress monitoring measured data show that in the process of hoisting the steel box girders,the stress of the main girders is in the fluctuant and complex state and many meteorological factors,such as sunshine radiation,temperature and wind,have important influence on the change of stress of the steel box girders. According to the real-time weather data,the stress data after the process of wavelet denoising from representative measuring points in different weather conditions is picked to establish the stress response brought by meteorological factors with Layered Separation method,thereby basically eliminating the influence of meteorological factors on the stress of main girders,so that accurate and reliable stress data can be got for steel box girders adjustment and cable-tensioned construction control.
文摘The effects induced by the presence of incoming wakes on the boundary layer developing over a high-lift low-pressure turbine profile have been investigated in a linear cascade at mid-span.The tested Reynolds number is 70000,typical of the cruise operating condition.The results of the investigations performed under steady and unsteady inflow conditions are analyzed.The unsteady investigations have been performed at the reduced frequency of f+=0.62,representative of the real engine operating condition.Profile aerodynamic loadings as well as boundary layer velocity profiles have been measured to survey the separation and transition processes.Spectral analysis has been also performed to better understand the phenomena associated with the transition process under steady inflow.For the unsteady case,a phase-locked ensemble averaging technique has been employed to reconstruct the time-resolved boundary layer velocity distributions from the hot-wire instantaneous signal output.The ensemble-averaging technique allowed a detailed analysis of the effects induced by incoming wakes-boundary layer interaction in separation suppression.Time-resolved results are presented in terms of mean velocity and unresolved unsteadiness time-space plots.

文摘Cobalt ferrite CoxNi1-xFe2O4 （x = 0, 0.5, 1 ） particles with controllable magnetic properties have been prepared by calcination of co-substituted NiFe^2＋Fe^3＋ -layered double hydroxide （NiFe^2＋Fe^3＋-LDH） precursors prepared via a scalable method involving separate nucleation and aging steps （SNAS）. Their structural and magnetic characteristics were investigated by powder X-ray diffraction （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and vibrating sample magnetometry （VSM）. Measurements of magnetic properties show that the saturation magnetization （Ms） and coercivity （He） of the calcined products increased with increasing cobalt content. The LDH precursor-based product obtained by calcination of a mixture of CoFe^2＋Fe3^＋-LDH and NiFe^2＋Fe^3＋ -LDH powders with a Co/Ni molar ratio of 1：1, exhibits a moderate value of Ms and an increased value of He compared to the corresponding values for an Ni0.5Co0.5Fe2O4 material prepared by calcination of a Co0.5Ni0.5Fe^2＋Fe^3＋-LDH precursor, and a physical mixture of CoFe2O4 and NiFe2O4 with a Co/Ni molar ratio of 1 ： 1. These results may provide a way to regulate magnetic anisotropy of ferrite spinels by varying the composition of the LDH precursors.
