These tests include a wide range of multi-DOF coupled oscillatory motions with various amplitudes and frequencies. Then, for aerodynamic modeling and analysis, a novel data-driven Feature-Level Attention Recurrent neural network(FLAR) is proposed. This model incorporates a specially designed feature-level attention module that focuses on the state variables affecting the aerodynamic coefficients, thereby enhancing the physical interpretability of the aerodynamic model. Subsequently, spin maneuver simulations, using a mathematical model as the baseline, are conducted to validate the effectiveness of the FLAR. Finally, the results on wind tunnel data reveal that the FLAR accurately predicts aerodynamic coefficients, and observations through the visualization of attention scores identify the key state variables that affect the aerodynamic coefficients. It is concluded that the proposed FLAR enhances the interpretability of the aerodynamic model while achieving good prediction accuracy and generalization capability for multi-DOF coupling motion at high angles of attack.展开更多

This study assimilated FY-4B AGRI data into the CMA-MESO model and analyzed the bias characteristics and correction methods. Analysis of the AGRI data revealed a clear diurnal variation in the bias, which was positively correlated with the solar elevation angle. However, the diurnal variation in the bias lagged behind the solar elevation angle, likely owing to temperature changes and delayed instrument responses resulting from solar radiation. To address this issue, we propose a correction method that utilizes the solar elevation angle after an optimal time shift. Using the time-shifted solar elevation angle as a predictor effectively reduces the diurnal variation in bias and significantly improves the correction effect. This approach provides theoretical support for the assimilation of FY-4B AGRI data into mesoscale numerical weather predictions, thereby enhancing the reliability of the assimilation results.展开更多

文摘A modified GIT model for describing the variational trend of mean clutter reflectivity as a function of wind speed is proposed. It uses two slope adjustment factors and two critical wind-speed factors to define and adjust the increasing slope of reflectivity with respect to wind speed. In addition, it uses a constant factor to compensate the overall amplitude of clutter reflectivity. The performance of the modified GIT model has been verified on the basis of the L-band low-grazing-angle radar sea clutter data. The results are in good agreement with the experimental data, indicating that the model is more effective in predicting the wind-speed behavior of clutter reflectivity than the conventional GIT model, especially for lower and higher wind speeds. We believe that the proposed model can provide deeper insights into the relationship between radar sea clutter reflectivity and sea state conditions.

文摘Unsteady aerodynamic characteristics at high angles of attack are of great importance to the design and development of advanced fighter aircraft, which are characterized by post-stall maneuverability with multiple Degrees-of-Freedom(multi-DOF) and complex flow field structure.In this paper, a special kind of cable-driven parallel mechanism is firstly utilized as a new suspension method to conduct unsteady dynamic wind tunnel tests at high angles of attack, thereby providing experimental aerodynamic data. These tests include a wide range of multi-DOF coupled oscillatory motions with various amplitudes and frequencies. Then, for aerodynamic modeling and analysis, a novel data-driven Feature-Level Attention Recurrent neural network(FLAR) is proposed. This model incorporates a specially designed feature-level attention module that focuses on the state variables affecting the aerodynamic coefficients, thereby enhancing the physical interpretability of the aerodynamic model. Subsequently, spin maneuver simulations, using a mathematical model as the baseline, are conducted to validate the effectiveness of the FLAR. Finally, the results on wind tunnel data reveal that the FLAR accurately predicts aerodynamic coefficients, and observations through the visualization of attention scores identify the key state variables that affect the aerodynamic coefficients. It is concluded that the proposed FLAR enhances the interpretability of the aerodynamic model while achieving good prediction accuracy and generalization capability for multi-DOF coupling motion at high angles of attack.

文摘The ability to localize sound sources rapidly allows human beings to efficiently understand the surrounding environment.Previous studies have suggested that there is an auditory“where”pathway in the cortex for processing sound locations.The neural activation in regions along this pathway encodes sound locations by opponent hemifield coding,in which each unilateral region is activated by sounds coming from the contralateral hemifield.However,it is still unclear how these regions interact with each other to form a unified representation of the auditory space.In the present study,we investigated whether functional connectivity in the auditory“where”pathway encoded sound locations during passive listening.Participants underwent functional magnetic resonance imaging while passively listening to sounds from five distinct horizontal locations(−90°,−45°,0°,45°,90°).We were able to decode sound locations from the functional connectivity patterns of the“where”pathway.Furthermore,we found that such neural representation of sound locations was primarily based on the coding of sound lateralization angles to the frontal midline.In addition,whole-brain analysis indicated that functional connectivity between occipital regions and the primary auditory cortex also encoded sound locations by lateralization angles.Overall,our results reveal a lateralization-angle-based representation of sound locations encoded by functional connectivity patterns,which could add on the activation-based opponent hemifield coding to provide a more precise representation of the auditory space.

文摘The spatial relationship between structural planes and principal stresses significantly affects the mechanical properties of deep hard rock.This paper examines the effect of the loading angle under true triaxial compression.While previous studies focused on the angleβbetween the maximum principal stress and the structural plane,the role of angleω,between the intermediate principal stress and the structural plane,is often overlooked.Utilizing artificially prefabricated granite specimens with a single non-penetrating structural plane,we set the loading angleβto range from 0°to 90°across seven groups,and assignedωvalues of 0°and 90°in two separate groups.The results show that the peak strength is negatively correlated withβup to 45°,beyond which it tends to stabilize.The angleωexerts a strengthening effect on the peak strength.Deformation mainly occurs post-peak,with the strain values ε_(1) and ε_(3) reaching levels 2−3 times higher than those in intact rock.The structural plane significantly influences failure mode whenω=0°,while failure localizes near the σ_(3) surface of the specimens whenω=90°.The findings enhance data on structural plane rocks under triaxial compression and inform theoretical research,excavation,and support design of rock structures.

文摘With the rapid development of deep resource extraction and underground space construction,the design of anchored support systems for jointed rock masses in complex stress environments faces significant challenges.This study investigates the influence of prefabricated crack dip angles on the mechanical properties of anchored rock masses in deep soft rock roadways.By constructing similarity models of NPR(Negative Poisson’s Ratio)and PR(Positive Poisson’s Ratio)anchored solids,biaxial compression experiments under varying crack dip angles were conducted.Strain gauges,3D Digital Image Correlation(3D DIC),and acoustic emission monitoring were employed to systematically analyze the strength characteristics,deformation-damage evolution,and energy dissipation mechanisms of the two types of anchor systems.The results show that:(1)The stress-strain curves of anchored solids with prefabricated cracks exhibit a distinct bimodal characteristic.Compared to PR anchors,NPR anchors show 20%and 23%improvements in peak strength and elastic modulus,respectively,with residual strength enhanced by up to 34%.(2)Owing to high pre-tightening force and large deformation capacity,NPR anchors maintain superior integrity under increasing crack dip angles,demonstrating more uniform free-surface displacement and localized shear-tensile composite crack patterns.(3)Acoustic emission analysis reveals that NPR anchors exhibit higher cumulative energy absorption(300%improvement over PR anchors)and lack low-rate energy development phases,indicating enhanced ductility and impact resistance at high crack dip angles.(4)Crack dip angle critically governs failure mechanisms by modulating the connectivity between shear cracks and prefabricated fissures:bimodal effects dominate at low angles,while vertical tensile crack propagation replaces bimodal behavior at high angles.The study proposes prioritizing NPR anchor cables in deep engineering applications and optimizing support parameters based on crack dip angles to mitigate stress concentration and ensure the long-term stability of surrounding rock.

文摘In rock mass and mining engineering,shock waves induced by engineering disturbances significantly affect rock mass stability.To explore the dynamic mechanical behavior and energy dissipation mechanisms of single-fractured composite rock masses under impact loading,a series of tests were conducted using a split Hopkinson pressure bar(SHPB)system with a 50 mm rod diameter.Specimens containing a single inclined fracture with seven different dip angles and located in different lithological layers were tested.The results show that both peak stress and peak strain exhibit a non-monotonic trend with increasing dip angleα-first decreasing,then increasing,reaching a minimum atα=45°.This behavior is attributed to enhanced energy concentration and dissipation in the fracture zone,where shear-dominated failure leads to more effective crack propagation and stress redistribution.Moreover,the proportion of crushing energy dissipation is significantly affected by the fracture dip angle,reaching a minimum atα=45°and a maximum atα=90°,indicating a transition from shear to tensile failure modes with increasing angle.Lithology also plays a crucial role:grey sandstone specimens absorbed more energy compared to yellow sandstone,implying higher impact resistance due to differences in microstructural cohesion.The evolution of fragment fractal dimension with increasing dip angle follows an"M-shaped"trend,reflecting changes in fragmentation intensity and failure mode.Notably,yellow sandstone tends to produce higher fractal dimensions,with larger mass but smaller volume of powdered debris,indicating more intense fragmentation.This study reveals the coupling effect of fracture dip angle and lithology on dynamic mechanical response and energy evolution,providing new insights into the failure mechanisms of layered composite rock masses under impact loading.

文摘Currently,the design of advanced compressor blades has reached the full ThreeDimensional(3D)modeling stage.When analyzing the reasons for the failure of popular corner stall prediction criteria for axial compressors to predict the corner flow state in modern compressor3D blades with end-bend and composite bend-sweep characteristics,it is believed that,in addition to the dihedral angle factor in the corner,the variation of the dihedral angle along the flow path is an important factor that has not been considered to date.In light of this,this study first uses the characteristic effects of the diffuser on the deceleration and pressure increase in airflow to design a series of physical models of varying dihedral angle diffusers that are equivalent to compressors.Based on these models,a quantization parameter is established to characterize the development speed of the intersection of boundary layers at the corner under varying dihedral angle and adverse pressure gradient conditions.After combining this with the effects of secondary flow,a Modified diffusion factor DJ(MDJ)is developed to describe the development of corner flow from the leading edge of the blade to its trailing edge under varying dihedral angle conditions.Finally,based on a compressor cascade database,an improved criterion for predicting corner stall in axial compressors using the MDJ diffusion factor is proposed.The validation results,based on extensive experimental data of compressor blades,reveal that this improved criterion can significantly enhance the accuracy of corner stall predictions in the 3D blades of modern compressors compared to currently used prediction criteria,by taking into account the effects of variations in the dihedral angle.

文摘A three-dimensional numerical model of sand wave dynamics,incorporating the interaction of currents and waves at various angles,has been developed using the Regional Ocean Modeling System(ROMS).This model accounts for both bedload and suspended load sediment transport under combined waves and current conditions.The investigation examines the influence of several key parameters,including the rotation angle of sand waves relative to the main current,tidal current velocity amplitude,residual current,water depth,wave height,wave period,and wave direction,on sand wave evolution.The growth rate and migration rate of sand waves decrease as their rotation angle increases.For rotation angles smaller than 15°,sand wave evolution can be effectively simulated by a vertical 2D model with an error within 10%.The numerical results demonstrate that variations in tidal current velocity amplitude or residual current affect both vertical growth and horizontal migration of sand waves.As tidal current velocity amplitude and residual current increase,the growth rate initially rises to a maximum before decreasing.The migration rate shows a consistent increase with increasing tidal current amplitude and residual current.Under combined waves and current,both growth and migration rates decrease as water depth increases.With increasing wave height and period,the growth rate and migration rate initially rise to maximum values before declining,while showing a consistent increase with wave height and period.The change rate of sand waves reaches its maximum when wave propagation aligns parallel to tidal currents,and reaches its minimum when wave propagation is perpendicular to the currents.This phenomenon can be explained by the fluctuation of total bed shear stress relative to the angle of interaction between waves and current.

文摘Leaf angle is a pivotal agronomic trait that significantly influences crop architecture and yield.Plant hormones,such as auxin,play a critical role in regulating leaf angle;however,the underlying molecular mechanisms remain to be fully elucidated.Here,we reveal that the auxin response factor gene,OsARF12,which is highly expressed in the leaf lamina joint,negatively regulates rice(Oryza sativa L.)leaf angle via affecting shoot gravitropism.Overexpression lines of OsARF12 exhibit more erect leaf angles,while the osarf12 mutants display enlarged leaf angles compared to the wild type.Further studies demonstrate that OsARF12 directly activates the expression of Loose Plant Architecture1(LPA1)and LAZY1 by binding to their promoters.The osarf12 mutant presents impaired shoot gravitropism,a phenotype consistent with that of the lpa1 and lazy1 mutants.Collectively,we elucidate the biological functions of OsARF12,which modulates leaf angle through its impact on shoot gravitropism by regulating the expression levels of LPA1 and LAZY1.This study provides insight into the role of auxin in determining rice leaf angle,potentially holding profound effects for the optimization of crop architecture.
文摘Hybrid commutation converters(HCCs)utilizing reverse-blocking integrated gate commutation thyristors(IGCTs)have gained significant attention due to their immunity to commutation failure.Leveraging the recovery enhancement characteristics of IGCTs,HCCs demonstrate superior performance at reduced extinction angles,thereby minimizing reactive power consumption.This study presents a comprehensive investigation into reactive power control strategies for HCCs operating at small extinction angles.First,the topological configuration and commutation principle of HCC are elucidated.Subsequently,the mechanism of HCC reactive power control is analyzed,and a reactive power control strategy is proposed by combining the converter transformer taps with extinction angles.Moreover,the relationship between transformer taps and reactive power exchange under different rated extinction angles is calculated,and the theoretically rated extinction angle is proposed.Finally,to validate the proposed control strategy,a four-terminal ultra-high voltage direct current power grid incorporating HCC technology is modeled and sim-ulated using PSCAD/EMTDC.The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed strategy effectively supports AC systems by reducing reactive power absorption in HCCs,while simultaneously exhibiting enhanced reli-ability and economic efficiency.

文摘Reinforced concrete(RC)beams face potential near-field blast threats as key structural components in building structures.To investigate the failure modes and dynamic responses of RC beams subjected to near-field blast loading,this paper presents both blast tests and numerical simulation studies on RC beams.First,near-field blast tests were conducted on five RC beam specimens under strong and weak-axis bending loading.Then,a refined finite element model of RC beams was established to verify the applicability of the adopted finite element analysis method.Finally,based on the calibrated finite element model,the failure mechanisms of RC beams were explored,and the influence of blast incidence angle on the failure modes and dynamic responses of RC beams was investigated.The results indicate:(i)Near-field blast loading demonstrates pronounced non-uniform distribution patterns.Under strong-axis incidence,clearing effects beyond the mid-span region are more significant than weak-axis incidence,leading to accelerated impulse attenuation.(ii)Three consecutive developmental stages primarily control the damage mechanism of RC beams:stress wave-induced local damage,local deformation causing plastic hinge propagation,and free vibration of the beam;(iii)As the scaled distance decreases,the failure mode of RC beams under weak-axis blast loading evolves from flexural failure to local failure.The resistance mechanism of RC beams under weak-axis blast loading is more prone to transition from compressive membrane action to tensile membrane action,reducing their blast resistance capacity;(iv)As the explosion incident angleθincreases from 0°to 90°,the blast wave-structure interaction transitions from regular reflection to Mach reflection and back to normal reflection,causing the dynamic response of RC beams to first decrease then increase,with corner concrete spalling damage being the primary failure mode.

文摘This paper addresses the three-dimensional(3-D)approach angle constrained cooperative guidance problem for speed-varying missiles against maneuvering targets.First,the guidance problem is formulated in a relative reference frame and a virtual control input is selected.Then,the cooperative guidance law is designed on the basis of a prediction-correction framework.The time-to-go under the baseline command is estimated by an efficient prediction method with a realistic aerodynamic model and a biased command is developed by utilizing the time-to-go predictions for synchronizing different missiles'impact times.The design of the biased command is decoupled into the individual design of its direction and magnitude.It is proved that the designed cooperative guidance law can make the time-to-go consensus error converge to zero before interception.Finally,the designed guidance law is validated through a series of numerical simulations.

文摘The spatially-resolved laser-based high resolution angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy(ARPES)measurements have been performed on the optimally-doped HgBa_(2)Ca_(2)Cu_(3)O_(8+δ)(Hg1223)superconductor with a T_(c) of 133 K.Two distinct regions are identified on the cleaved surface:the single Fermi surface region where only one Fermi surface is observed,and the double Fermi surface region where two Fermi surface sheets are resolved coming from both the inner(IP)and outer(OP)CuO_(2) planes.The electronic structure and superconducting gap are measured on both of these two regions.In both cases,the observed electronic states are mainly concentrated near the nodal region.The momentum dependence of the superconducting gap deviates from the standard d-wave form.These results indicate that the surface electronic structure of Hg1223 behaves more like that of underdoped cuprates.

文摘The infrared channels of the FY-4B advanced geosynchronous radiation imagers(AGRI) play a crucial role in temperature and humidity analyses for mesoscale numerical weather prediction, particularly in enhancing the initial field quality and the forecasting accuracy of the model. This study assimilated FY-4B AGRI data into the CMA-MESO model and analyzed the bias characteristics and correction methods. Analysis of the AGRI data revealed a clear diurnal variation in the bias, which was positively correlated with the solar elevation angle. However, the diurnal variation in the bias lagged behind the solar elevation angle, likely owing to temperature changes and delayed instrument responses resulting from solar radiation. To address this issue, we propose a correction method that utilizes the solar elevation angle after an optimal time shift. Using the time-shifted solar elevation angle as a predictor effectively reduces the diurnal variation in bias and significantly improves the correction effect. This approach provides theoretical support for the assimilation of FY-4B AGRI data into mesoscale numerical weather predictions, thereby enhancing the reliability of the assimilation results.

文摘Bolting steel angles at the bottom ends of columns provides a rapid and efficient method for repairing damaged structures,while also offering a viable approach to restore their potential bearing capacity.To validate the suitability of specific strengthening strategies,particularly the utilization of bolted steel angles,three reinforced concrete frame specimens were subjected to hysteresis testing.These specimens all featured RC columns strengthened with steel angle ends.Additionally,one control specimen without steel angle ends was included in the testing.The hysteresis effects of bolting steel angles were discussed in terms of typical failure mode,hysteresis and skeleton curves,stiffness degradation and energy dissipation.The experimental results revealed that the three specimens that had bolted steel angles exhibited ductile failure behavior.Through analysis of hysteresis and skeleton curves,it was observed that the frame demonstrated distinct plasticity,maintaining sufficient load-bearing capacity even after yielding and exhibiting superior displacement ductility performance.Considering equivalent viscous damping,the energy dissipation capacity of the RC frame increased linearly with drift and remained largely unaffected by structural damage.Therefore,bolting steel angles at specified cross-sections proved to be a viable technique for structural repair and restoration.
