A systematic analysis is conducted to evaluate the effects of spring parameters on the non-planar vibration characteristics and buckling behaviors of the coupled system. The nonlinear governing equations are derived with Hamilton's principle,subsequently discretized through Galerkin's method, and finally numerically solved by the Runge-Kutta algorithm. Based on the linearized equations, an eigenvalue analysis is performed to obtain the coupled frequencies, modal shapes, and critical flow velocities for buckling instability. Quantitative assessments further elucidate the effects of the spring position and stiffness coefficient on the coupled frequencies and critical flow velocities.Nonlinear dynamic analyses reveal the evolution of buckling patterns and bifurcation behaviors between the lateral displacements of the two pipes and the flow velocity. Numerical results indicate that the intermediate spring increases the susceptibility to buckling instability in the out-of-plane direction compared with the in-plane direction. Furthermore, synchronized lateral displacements emerge in both pipes when the flow velocity of one pipe exceeds the critical threshold. This work is expected to provide a theoretical foundation for the stability assessment and vibration analysis in coupled fluid-conveying pipe systems.展开更多

文摘Edge couplers,widely recognized for their efficiency and broad bandwidth,have gained significant attention as optical fiber-to-chip couplers.Silicon waveguides exhibit strong birefringence properties,resulting in substantial polarization-dependent loss for edge couplers in the O-band.We introduce a bilayer and double-tip edge coupler designed to efficiently couple both transverse electric(TE)and transverse magnetic(TM)modes while maintaining compatibility with standard manufacturing processes used in commercial silicon photonics foundries.We have successfully designed and fabricated this edge coupler,achieving coupling losses of<1.52 dB∕facet for TE mode and 2 dB∕facet for TM mode when coupled with a lensed optical fiber[4-μmmode field diameter(MFD)]within the wavelength range of 1260 to 1360 nm.

文摘Shallow water infrastructure needs to support increased activity on the shores of Semarang.This study chooses several pontoons because of their good stability,rolling motion,and more expansive space.A coupled simulation method consisting of hydrodynamic and structural calculations has been used to evaluate a catamaran pontoon’s motion and structural integrity.Four different space sizes are set for the pontoon system:5 m,5.5 m,6 m,and 6.5 m.The frequency domain shows that the pontoon space affects the RAO in wave periods ranging from 3 s to 5 s.At wave periods of 3 s,4 s,and 5 s,the pontoon space significantly affects the maximum motion and chain tension parameter values,which are evaluated via time domain simulation.The critical stress of the pontoon is shown at a wave period of 5 s for 5 m and 5.5 m of pontoon space,which shows that the stress can reach 248 MPa.

文摘This study introduces a novel approach for coupled aeroelastic analysis of panel subjected to supersonic airflow,utilizing Add-On Acoustic Black Hole(AABH)to mitigate panel flutter.Employing Galerkin's method to discretize aeroelastic equation of panel and leveraging finite element method to derive a reduced discrete model of AABH,this study effectively couples two substructures via interface displacement.Investigation into the interactive force highlights the modal effective mass,frequency discrepancy between oscillation and AABH mode,and modal damping ratio as critical factors influencing individual AABH mode in flutter suppression.The selection of effective AABH modes,closely linked to these factors,directly influences the accuracy of simulations.The results reveal that AABH notably enhances the panel's critical flutter boundary by14.6%,a significant improvement over the 3.6%increase afforded by equivalent mass.Furthermore,AABH outperforms both the tuned mass damper and nonlinear energy sink in flutter suppression efficacy.By adjusting the AABH's geometrical parameters to increase the accumulative modal effective mass within the pertinent frequency range,or choosing a suitable installation position for AABH,its performance in flutter suppression is further optimized.These findings not only underscore the AABH's potential in enhancing aeroelastic stability but also provide a foundation for its optimal design.

文摘In the realm of nonlinear integrable systems,the presence of decompositions facilitates the establishment of linear superposition solutions and the derivation of novel coupled systems exhibiting nonlinear integrability.By focusing on single-component decompositions within the potential BKP hierarchy,it has been observed that specific linear superpositions of decomposition solutions remain consistent with the underlying equations.Moreover,through the implementation of multi-component decompositions within the potential BKP hierarchy,successful endeavors have been undertaken to formulate linear superposition solutions and novel coupled Kd V-type systems that resist decoupling via alterations in dependent variables.

文摘This study investigates the dynamical behavior of two parallel fluid-conveying pipes by developing a non-planar dynamical model of the two pipes coupled with an intermediate spring. A systematic analysis is conducted to evaluate the effects of spring parameters on the non-planar vibration characteristics and buckling behaviors of the coupled system. The nonlinear governing equations are derived with Hamilton's principle,subsequently discretized through Galerkin's method, and finally numerically solved by the Runge-Kutta algorithm. Based on the linearized equations, an eigenvalue analysis is performed to obtain the coupled frequencies, modal shapes, and critical flow velocities for buckling instability. Quantitative assessments further elucidate the effects of the spring position and stiffness coefficient on the coupled frequencies and critical flow velocities.Nonlinear dynamic analyses reveal the evolution of buckling patterns and bifurcation behaviors between the lateral displacements of the two pipes and the flow velocity. Numerical results indicate that the intermediate spring increases the susceptibility to buckling instability in the out-of-plane direction compared with the in-plane direction. Furthermore, synchronized lateral displacements emerge in both pipes when the flow velocity of one pipe exceeds the critical threshold. This work is expected to provide a theoretical foundation for the stability assessment and vibration analysis in coupled fluid-conveying pipe systems.

文摘Acidic-and alkalic-hydrolyses are selective in breaking functional bonds and falling off pharmacological moieties of antibiotics in production wastewater in comparison with advanced oxidation processes.Elevating temperature can accelerate hydrolytic kinetics and improve efficiency.In this work,magnetic sulfonated polypropylene resin(Fe_(3)O_(4)@PS-S)composites were reported for acidic-thermal hydrolysis of tylosin by employing the acidic feature of sulfonic group,the dielectric effect of resin,and the magnetic-loss effect of magnetite under microwave irradiation.As observed,a rapid and complete mitigation 100 mg/L of tylosin was achieved within 15 min by the catalysts.Acidic cleavage of tylosin was fulfilled by sulfonic groups in the composites,and microwave thermal accelerated the hydrolysis reactions due to the dielectric and magnetic-loss effects.Differentiating the dielectric and magnetic-loss effects through electromagnetic analyses indicated that the latter contributed more in converting microwave energy to heat.The interactions under multiple operational conditions were quantitatively fitted using the Behnajady model and visually demonstrated,which indicated that a synergic effect of microwave thermal-and acidichydrolyses contributed to the efficient mitigation of tylosin.The transformation products were identified and the pathways were supposed.Cleaving deoxyaminosugars groups and destructing lactone structures led to reduced antibacterial potential and toxicity reduction.The acute toxicity of tylosin and transformation products to fish,daphnia,and green algae were all classified as non-toxic.This work suggested that this synergistic acid-thermal hydrolytic method is attractive and promising in pretreating tylosin production wastewater in field.

文摘To investigate the effect of rail pad viscoelasticity on vehicle-track-bridge coupled vibration,the fractional Voigt and Maxwell model in parallel(FVMP)was used to characterize the viscoelastic properties of the rail pad based on dynamic performance test results.The FVMP model was then incorporated into the vehicle-track-bridge nonlinear coupled model,and its dynamic response was solved using a cross-iteration algorithm with a relaxation factor.Results indicate that the nonlinear coupled model achieves good convergence when the time step is less than 0.001 s,with the cross-iteration algorithm adjusting the wheel-rail force.In particular,the best convergence is achieved when the relaxation factor is within the range of 0.3-0.5.The FVMP model effectively characterizes the viscoelasticity of rail pads across a temperature range of±20℃and a frequency range of 1-1000 Hz.The viscoelasticity of rail pads significantly affects high-frequency vibrations in the coupled system,particularly around 50 Hz,corresponding to the wheel-rail coupled resonance range.Considering rail pad viscoelasticity is essential for accurately predicting track structure vibrations.

文摘The El Niño-Southern Oscillation(ENSO)is a naturally recurring interannual climate fluctuation that affects the global climate system.The advent of deep learning-based approaches has led to transformative changes in ENSO forecasts,resulting in significant progress.Most deep learning-based ENSO prediction models which primarily rely solely on reanalysis data may lead to challenges in intensity underestimation in long-term forecasts,reducing the forecasting skills.To this end,we propose a deep residual-coupled model prediction(Res-CMP)model,which integrates historical reanalysis data and coupled model forecast data for multiyear ENSO prediction.The Res-CMP model is designed as a lightweight model that leverages only short-term reanalysis data and nudging assimilation prediction results of the Community Earth System Model(CESM)for effective prediction of the Niño 3.4 index.We also developed a transfer learning strategy for this model to overcome the limitations of inadequate forecast data.After determining the optimal configuration,which included selecting a suitable transfer learning rate during training,along with input variables and CESM forecast lengths,Res-CMP demonstrated a high correlation ability for 19-month lead time predictions(correlation coefficients exceeding 0.5).The Res-CMP model also alleviated the spring predictability barrier(SPB).When validated against actual ENSO events,Res-CMP successfully captured the temporal evolution of the Niño 3.4 index during La Niña events(1998/99 and 2020/21)and El Niño events(2009/10 and 2015/16).Our proposed model has the potential to further enhance ENSO prediction performance by using coupled models to assist deep learning methods.

文摘Coupled dissolution-precipitation is one of the critical processes influencing the mineralogical and geochemical evolution of pegmatites.This mechanism involves the simultaneous dissolution of primary mineral phases and the precipitation of secondary phases,driven by changes in the chemical environment,often mediated by hydrothermal fluids.The Bailongshan Li deposit,located in the West Kunlun region of northwest China,is a significant geological formation known for its rich lithium content and associated rare metals such as tantalum,niobium,and tin.This study investigates the coupled dissolution-precipitation processes that have played a crucial role in the mineralization of this deposit,focusing on key minerals,including cassiterite(Cst),columbite-group minerals(CGM),and elbaite(Elb).Using a combination of petrographic analysis,back-scattered electron(BSE)imaging,cathodoluminescence(CL)imaging,and micro X-ray fluorescence(XRF)mapping,we examined the textural and chemical characteristics of these minerals.Our findings reveal intricate patchy zoning patterns and element distributions(indicated by the Nb,Ta,W,Mn,Fe,Hf,Ti for CGM;Hf,Ti Rb,W,Nb,Ta for Cst;Ti,Zn,Fe,W,Hf,Mn,K for Elb)that indicate multiple stages of mineral alteration driven by fluid-mediated processes.The coupled dissolution-precipitation mechanisms observed in the Bailongshan deposit have resulted in significant redistribution and enrichment of economically valuable elements.The study highlights the importance of hydrothermal fluids in altering primary mineral phases and precipitating secondary phases with distinct compositions.These processes not only modified the mineralogical makeup of the pegmatite but also enhanced its economic potential by concentrating rare metals.Signatures of coupled dissolutionprecipitation processes can serve as an essential tool for mineral exploration,guiding the search for high-grade zones within similar pegmatitic formations.

文摘Carbonaceous mudstone is a potential embankment filler in mountainous regions with limited high-quality materials;however,its engineering performance in highway embankments under complex environmental conditions remains poorly understood.This study aimed to investigate the mechanical properties and failure mechanisms of carbonaceous mudstone filler under different temperature-moisture coupled conditions.Triaxial shear tests were conducted under four temperaturemoisture coupled conditions:dry-heat to dry-cold(DHDC),wet-cold to wet-heat(WCWH),dry-cold to wet-heat(DCWH),and dry-heat to wet-cold(DHWC).The effects of these conditions on the strength characteristics,relative breakage ratio,failure mode,and microscopic morphology were examined.A segmented prediction model based on the DuncanChang model was applied to validate the experimental results under the DHWC condition.The failure mechanisms under different conditions were also analyzed.The results indicate that the degradation of carbonaceous mudstone increases in the following order:DHDC,WCWH,DCWH,and DHWC.Under the DHDC condition,the stress-strain curves exhibit strain-softening behavior,while other conditions show strain-hardening behavior,with peak deviatoric stress occurring at 2%and 4%axial strains,respectively.The shear strength decreases by up to 40%under the DHWC condition but remains nearly unchanged under the DHDC condition,showing a positive correlation with particle breakage.As the number of cycles increases,the failure surfaces gradually move downward.Higher confining pressure shifts failure mode from shear failure to shear slip or localized compression,and eventually to overall compression or expansion failure.The modified Duncan-Chang model accurately predicts the experimental results.These findings provide important guidance for the application of carbonaceous mudstone filler in highway embankment construction in humid mountainous regions.

文摘Frequency conversion is pivotal in nonlinear optics and quantum optics for manipulating and translating light signals across different wavelength regimes.Achieving frequency conversion between two light beams with a small frequency interval is a central challenge.In this work,we design a pair of coupled silicon microrings wherein coupled-induced modesplitting exists to achieve a small frequency shift by the process of four-wave mixing Bragg scattering.As an example,the signal can be up or down converted to the idler which is 15.5 GHz spaced when two pumps align with another pair of split resonances.The results unveil the potential of coupled microring resonators for small interval frequency conversion in a high-fidelity,all-optical,and signal processing quantum frequency interface.
