Quantitative results obtained from simulations and experiments are presented. The results show the DORT method can be effi-ciently applied to target detection with enough source level to yield significant backscatter. For a target placed on the bottom, the influence of the reverberation on the focusing performance is slight. However, distinguishing between a target and constant backscattering returning from strong local clutter on the bottom (false alarms) needs further research.展开更多

First, the locations of targets are estimated by the transmitting-mode decomposition of the TR operator(DORT) method employing the signal subspace. Then, the TR multiple signal classification(TR-MUSIC)method employing the noise subspace is used in the estimated target area to get the superresolution imaging of targets. Two examples with homogeneous and inhomogeneous background mediums are considered, respectively. The results show that the proposed hybrid method has advantages in CPU time and memory cost because of the combination of rough and fine imaging.展开更多

In this study, the p-SAF films consisting of (Co/Ni)3]/Ir(tIr)/[(Ni/Co)3are fabricated by magnetron sputtering technology. We study the domain structure and switching field distribution in p-SAF by changing the thickness of the infrared space layer. The strongest exchange coupling field(Hex) is observed when the thickness of Ir layer(tIr) is 0.7 nm and becoming weak according to the Ruderman–Kittel–Kasuya–Yosida-type coupling at 1.05 nm,2.1 nm, 4.55 nm, and 4.9 nm in sequence. Furthermore, the domain switching process between the upper Co/Ni stack and the bottom Co/Ni stack is different because of the antiferromagnet coupling. Compared with ferromagnet coupling films, the antiferromagnet samples possess three irreversible reversal regions in the first-order reversal curve distribution.With tIrincreasing, these irreversible reversal regions become denser and smaller. The results from this study will help us understand the details of the magnetization reversal process in the p-SAF.展开更多

There is a significantly positive(negative) correlation between the November(DJ) SH and the September sea ice area(SIA) anomalies. It is suggested that the reduction of autumn SIA induces anomalous upward surface turbulent heat flux(SHF), which can persist into November, especially over the Barents Sea. Consequently, the enhanced eddy energy and wave activity flux are transported to mid and high latitudes. This will then benefit the development of the storm track in northeastern Europe. Conversely, when downward SHF anomalies prevail in DJ, the decreased heat flux and suppressed eddy energy hinder the growth of the storm track during DJ over the Barents Sea and Europe. Through the eddy–mean flow interaction, the strengthened(weakened)storm track activities induce decreased(increased) Ural blockings and accelerated(decelerated) westerlies, which makes the cold air from the Arctic inhibited(transported) over the Siberian area. Therefore, a weaker(stronger) SH in November(DJ) occurs downstream. Moreover, anomalously large snowfall may intensify the SH in DJ rather than in November. The ensemble-mean results from the CMIP5 historical simulations further confirm these connections. The different responses to Arctic sea ice anomalies in early and middle winter set this study apart from earlier ones.展开更多

文摘In this editorial,we comment on an article by Liu et al.We focus specifically on the novel use of laparoscopic intracorporeal anastomosis(LIA)compared with open ileostomy reversal in patients with Crohn’s disease(CD),which is an innovative approach for improving postoperative outcomes and accelerating recovery in ileostomy reversal procedures.This study also highlights the limitations of the conventional open surgical technique,which is associated with higher rates of feeding intolerance,prolonged hospital stays,and delayed initiation of enteral nutrition.The chronic and recurrent nature of CD and the challenges posed by traditional surgical methods are issues addressed by LIA,which offers a minimally invasive approach that reduces surgical trauma,shortens recovery time,and improves tolerance to enteral nutrition,thereby enhancing postoperative outcomes.However,while LIA shows great promise,further prospective multicenter trials are needed to validate these findings and assess their broader application in other surgical scenarios.Overall,LIA represents a significant advancement in minimally invasive surgery for CD and has the potential to become the preferred standard approach for ileostomy reversal in patients requiring bowel reanastomosis.

文摘Time-reversal symmetry(TRS)breaking induced dissipationless topological phonon edge modes provide an unprecedented way to manipulate phonon transport.However,the effect of TRS breaking on the transport properties of bulk phonon modes is still unclear.In this work,we assess the effect of local TRS-breaking domains on the transport properties of bulk phonon modes in a two-dimensional(2D)hexagonal phononic lattice model.The results show that bulk phonon modes can be strongly scattered by local TRS breaking owing to the shift of the local phonon band gap,which results in significant suppression of phonon transmission.Moreover,we show that the aperiodic distribution of local TRS-breaking domains can induce phonon Anderson localization,and the localization length can be effectively tuned by the strength of TRS breaking.Our study suggests that TRS breaking can not only be used to construct dissipationless topological phonon edge states,but also be used to block the transmission of bulk phonon modes by carefully controlling the size and distribution of TRS-breaking domains.Such results provide a highly alternative way for manipulating energy flux at the nanoscale.

文摘In recent years,the network public opinion reversal governance events have occurred frequently.Over time,the repeated truth of the matter will not only weaken the rational judgment of the public to a certain extent,so that its negative emotions accumulate,but also have a serious impact on the credibility of the media and the government,and may even further intensify social contradictions.Therefore,in the face of such a complex online public opinion space,accurately identifying the truth behind the incident and how to carry out the reversal of online public opinion governance is particularly critical.And blockchain technology,with its advantages of decentralization and immutable information,provides new technical support for the network public opinion reversal governance.Based on this,this paper gives an overview and analysis of blockchain technology and network public opinion reversal,and on this basis introduces the network public opinion reversal governance mechanism based on blockchain technology,aiming to further optimize the network public opinion reversal governance process,for reference only.

文摘In the present work,the magnetization reversal behavior for the melt spinning(Nd_(0.8)Ce_(0.2))_(2)Fe_(12)Co_(2-x)Zr_(x)B(x=0,0.5)permanent alloys with high coercivity was investigated by analyzing the hysteresis curves and the recoil loops.Compared to the Zr-free alloy,the Zr-doped sample obtains higher magnetic properties:coercivity of H_(cj)=650.5 kA·m^(-1),squareness of H_(k)/H_(cj)=0.76 and maximum energy product of(BH)_(max)=131.0 kJ·m^(-3).The first-order reversal curves(FORCs)analysis was taken to identify optimal conditions of exchange coupling for the Zr-free and Zr-doped alloys.The coercivity mechanism of theα-Fe/Nd_(2)Fe_(14)B nanocomposite alloys was analyzed by the angular dependence of the coercive field as measured for the Zr-doped sample.The results show that the magnetic reverse process of the Zr-doped sample can be explained by the pinning model.

文摘This paper presents a detailed analysis of the effects of noise (reverberation) on the focusing performance of de-composition of the time reversal operator (DORT) in a noise-limited case and in a reverberation-limited case, respectively. Quantitative results obtained from simulations and experiments are presented. The results show the DORT method can be effi-ciently applied to target detection with enough source level to yield significant backscatter. For a target placed on the bottom, the influence of the reverberation on the focusing performance is slight. However, distinguishing between a target and constant backscattering returning from strong local clutter on the bottom (false alarms) needs further research.

文摘An efficient hybrid time reversal(TR) imaging method based on signal subspace and noise subspace is proposed for electromagnetic superresolution detecting and imaging. First, the locations of targets are estimated by the transmitting-mode decomposition of the TR operator(DORT) method employing the signal subspace. Then, the TR multiple signal classification(TR-MUSIC)method employing the noise subspace is used in the estimated target area to get the superresolution imaging of targets. Two examples with homogeneous and inhomogeneous background mediums are considered, respectively. The results show that the proposed hybrid method has advantages in CPU time and memory cost because of the combination of rough and fine imaging.
文摘In this paper, a new method of time reversal for defect diagnosis of concealed structure has been proposed based on the detecting technique of structure acoustic wave and the theory of time reversal. The time reversal recurrence formula for detecting the acoustic wave speed constitution of concealed structures with bilevel asynchronous test has been established. The wave speed constitution can be reconstructed in 2 D graticule form by means of this method. The result of model test shows the method is valid.

文摘Perpendicular synthetic-antiferromagnet(p-SAF) has broad applications in spin-transfer-torque magnetic random access memory and magnetic sensors. In this study, the p-SAF films consisting of (Co/Ni)3]/Ir(tIr)/[(Ni/Co)3are fabricated by magnetron sputtering technology. We study the domain structure and switching field distribution in p-SAF by changing the thickness of the infrared space layer. The strongest exchange coupling field(Hex) is observed when the thickness of Ir layer(tIr) is 0.7 nm and becoming weak according to the Ruderman–Kittel–Kasuya–Yosida-type coupling at 1.05 nm,2.1 nm, 4.55 nm, and 4.9 nm in sequence. Furthermore, the domain switching process between the upper Co/Ni stack and the bottom Co/Ni stack is different because of the antiferromagnet coupling. Compared with ferromagnet coupling films, the antiferromagnet samples possess three irreversible reversal regions in the first-order reversal curve distribution.With tIrincreasing, these irreversible reversal regions become denser and smaller. The results from this study will help us understand the details of the magnetization reversal process in the p-SAF.

文摘The electromagnetic time-reversal(TR)technique has the characteristics of spatiotemporal focusing in a time-reversal cavity(TRC),which can be used for pulse compression,thus forming an electromagnetic pulse with high peak power.A time-reversed pulse-compression method in a single channel has high pulse compression gain.However,single channel pulse compression can only generate limited gain.This paper proposes a novel TR power-combination method in a multichannel TRC to obtain higher peak power based on TR pulse-compression theory.First,the TR power-combination model is given,and the crosstalk properties of the associated channel and the influence of the reversal performance are studied.Then,the power-combination performances for the TR pulse compression,such as combined signal to noise ratio(SNR)and combined compression gain,are analyzed by numerical simulation and experimental methods.The results show that the proposed method has obvious advantages over pulse-compression methods using a single channel cavity,and is more convenient for power combination.

文摘During 1979–2015, the intensity of the Siberian high(SH) in November and December–January(DJ) is frequently shown to have an out-of-phase relationship, which is accompanied by opposite surface air temperature and circulation anomalies.Further analyses indicate that the autumn Arctic sea ice is important for the phase reversal of the SH. There is a significantly positive(negative) correlation between the November(DJ) SH and the September sea ice area(SIA) anomalies. It is suggested that the reduction of autumn SIA induces anomalous upward surface turbulent heat flux(SHF), which can persist into November, especially over the Barents Sea. Consequently, the enhanced eddy energy and wave activity flux are transported to mid and high latitudes. This will then benefit the development of the storm track in northeastern Europe. Conversely, when downward SHF anomalies prevail in DJ, the decreased heat flux and suppressed eddy energy hinder the growth of the storm track during DJ over the Barents Sea and Europe. Through the eddy–mean flow interaction, the strengthened(weakened)storm track activities induce decreased(increased) Ural blockings and accelerated(decelerated) westerlies, which makes the cold air from the Arctic inhibited(transported) over the Siberian area. Therefore, a weaker(stronger) SH in November(DJ) occurs downstream. Moreover, anomalously large snowfall may intensify the SH in DJ rather than in November. The ensemble-mean results from the CMIP5 historical simulations further confirm these connections. The different responses to Arctic sea ice anomalies in early and middle winter set this study apart from earlier ones.
