文摘This study investigates the nonlinear resonance responses of suspended cables subjected to multi-frequency excitations and time-delayed feedback.Two specific combinations and simultaneous resonances are selected for detailed examination.Initially,utilizing Hamilton’s variational principle,a nonlinear vibration control model of suspended cables under multi-frequency excitations and longitudinal time-delayed velocity feedback is developed,and the Galerkin method is employed to obtain the discrete model.Subsequently,focusing solely on single-mode discretization,analytical solutions for the two simultaneous resonances are derived using the method of multiple scales.The frequency response equations are derived,and the stability analysis is presented for two simultaneous resonance cases.The results demonstrate that suspended cables exhibit complex nonlinearity under multi-frequency excitations.Multiple solutions under multi-frequency excitation can be distinguished through the frequency–response and the detuning-phase curves.By adjusting the control gain and time delay,the resonance range,response amplitude,and phase of suspended cables can be modified.

文摘Controllably tuning the sensing performance of flexible mechanical sensors is important for them to realize on-demand sensing of various mechanical stimuli in different application scenarios.However,current regulating strategies focus on the construction process of individual sensors,the response performance of the as-formed sensors is still hard to autonomously tune with external stimulus changes like human skin.Here,we propose a new strategy that realizes post-tuning of the sensing performance by introducing a temperature-dependent phase transition elastomer into the sensing film.Through an interfacially confined photopolymerization reaction,a graphene-based phase-transition elastomeric(GPTE)film with a robust interface and excellent conductivity is well-formed at the water/air interface.Benefiting from the crystallization-melt dynamic switching in the elastomer network,the GPTE film could experience the reversible transformation between soft(1.65 MPa)and stiff(12.27MPa)states,showing huge changes of elastic modulus up to seven times near the phase transition temperature(28.5℃).Furthermore,the GPTE film is designed into a suspended perceptual configuration realizing the dynamic detection of 3D deformation adapted to temperature changes with up to 3.5-fold difference in response sensitivity.Finally,the self-adaptive sensing behavior of temperature-mediated 3D deformation is demonstrated by the effective detection of the dynamic stimulation process of cold and hot water droplets by the GPTE suspended film.The proposed strategy of phase transition-induced post-tuning of sensing performance could greatly facilitate flexible mechanical sensors towards a more intelligent one.

文摘Mesoscale eddies are widespread in the global ocean,significantly influencing the physical,chemical,and biological structures of water column.Based on the CTD data and suspended particulate matter(SPM)data collected at 36 hydrographic stations during a field cruise in southern Mozambique Channel,combined with satellite altimeter observations,we identified a series of mesoscale eddies traversing the Mozambique Channel.Our hydrographic measurements,coupled with in situ chlorophyll fluorescence data,reveal that these eddies significantly influence thermohaline structure and chlorophyll distribution,which in turn affects primary productivity and SPM concentrations in the upper ocean.The cyclonic eddies facilitate the upwelling of cold subsurface water,leading to a shallowing of the pycnocline and the creation of a low-temperature anomaly with variable salinity anomalies at different depths.Conversely,anticyclonic eddies submerge warm surface water,deepening the pycnocline,and resulting in a high-temperature anomaly accompanied by distinct salinity patterns.Significantly,a coastal anticyclonic eddy was observed to intercept terrestrial material from the Delagoa Bight,redirecting it west of 36°E.This study presents unique and quasi-synchronous CTD datasets capturing mesoscale eddy impacts,and provided valuable insights into SPM variability within the often-neglected southern Mozambique Channel.

文摘Ocean remote sensing satellites provide observations with high spatiotemporal resolution.However,the influence of clouds,fog,and haze frequently leads to significant data gaps.Accurate and effective estimation of these missing data is highly valuable for engineering and scientific research.In this study,the radial basis function(RBF)method is used to estimate the spatial distribution of total suspended matter(TSM)concentration in Hangzhou Bay using remote sensing data with severe data gaps.The estimation precision is validated by comparing the results with those of other commonly used interpolation methods,such as the Kriging method and the basic spline(B-spline)method.In addition,the applicability of the RBF method is explored.Results show that the estimation of the RBF method is significantly close to the observation in Hangzhou Bay.The average of the mean absolute error,mean relative error,and root mean square error in all the experiments is evidently smaller than those of the Kriging and B-spline interpolations,indicating that the proposed method is more appropriate for estimating the spatial distribution of the TSM in Hangzhou Bay.Finally,the TSM distribution in the blank observational area is predicted.This study can provide some reference values for handling watercolor remote sensing data.

文摘Electric desalting wastewater(EDW)is one of the petrochemical wastewater generated in the production process of petrochemical industry,due to the instability of its water quality,the traditional wastewater treatment technology is complex,high energy consumption,and will produce waste causing secondary pollution,posing challenges in terms of environmental protection,technology,and economy.This study utilized an on-site test to investigate the possibility of a new short-process physical method to replace traditional electro-chemical,oil-separation,and two-stage air floating physical chemistry processes,in response to optimizing the treatment effect,thus reducing the cost of treatment and carbon emissions.Following this test,this new short-flow physical method process could improve the efficiency of oil and suspend solid(SS)removal by 15.48%and 58.72%,and providing 78.37%and 75.55%the operating costs and carbon emissions savings,respectively.This system also reduced the production of waste solids,volatile organic compounds,and other three-waste compared with the traditional process.These benefits offer environmental and economic advantages,and this process serves as an efficient strategy to treat wastewater for electric desalination,and can be served as a completely new technological and process option for the treatment of EDW.

文摘The concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs),their sources and toxic equivalent(TEQ)in soil,suspended matter and bottom sediments in the Fatala River Basin ecosystem were obtained for the fi rst time to our knowledge.Determination of 14 PAHs(ΣPAHs)was carried out using high-performance liquid chromatography.TheΣPAH content in soil ranged from 13 to 50,920(Me=820)ng/g.The composition of PAHs(high proportion of low-molecular-weight compounds and values of individual PAHs ratios)refl ected the signifi cant oil pollution of soil.Contaminated soil was localated in the central part of the Fatala River Basin.The median benzo(a)pyrene toxic equivalent of soil at the study site was 1.08(range,0.05 to 53.16)ngTEQ/g,showing generally low soil toxicity.TheΣPAH content in suspended matter was in the range of 33 to 1316(Me=309)ng/L.TheΣPAH content in bottom sediments ranged from 36 to 6943(Me=478)ng/L,corresponding to clean and moderately contaminated sediments.TheΣPAH content in bottom sediments depended on the anthropogenic impact on the Fatala River Basin territory and the bottom sediment features.Bottom sediments and suspended matter had a low toxic equivalent.
文摘According to some main assumptions in the Rouse Formula,it analyzes the applicability of Rouse distribution in the coastal region.Based on the classical Rouse Formula,the linear form of Rouse Formula and the transport characteristics of offshore sediment were used to take lnz/h,lnc_(a),c_(a),u,lnu and z/h as the independent variables.The multiple liner regression method was used to analyze the influence of the independent variables on the vertical distribution of sediment concentration.By using the method of significance test,the factors(lnu)that have less influence on sediment concentration among 6 variables were eliminated.The correlation coefficient between the calculated sediment concentration and the measured sediment concentration indicates that the adopted variables can reflect the characteristics of vertical distribution of concentration of fine sediment near shore under complex dynamic conditions.

文摘In the task of inspecting underwater suspended pipelines,multi-beam sonar(MBS)can provide two-dimensional water column images(WCIs).However,systematic interferences(e.g.,sidelobe effects)may induce misdetection in WCIs.To address this issue and improve the accuracy of detection,we developed a density-based clustering method for three-dimensional water column point clouds.During the processing of WCIs,sidelobe effects are mitigated using a bilateral filter and brightness transformation.The cross-sectional point cloud of the pipeline is then extracted by using the Canny operator.In the detection phase,the target is identified by using density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise(DBSCAN).However,the selection of appropriate DBSCAN parameters is obscured by the uneven distribution of the water column point cloud.To overcome this,we propose an improved DBSCAN based on a parameter interval estimation method(PIE-DBSCAN).First,kernel density estimation(KDE)is used to determine the candidate interval of parameters,after which the exact cluster number is determined via density peak clustering(DPC).Finally,the optimal parameters are selected by comparing the mean silhouette coefficients.To validate the performance of PIE-DBSCAN,we collected water column point clouds from an anechoic tank and the South China Sea.PIE-DBSCAN successfully detected both the target points of the suspended pipeline and non-target points on the seafloor surface.Compared to the K-Means and Mean-Shift algorithms,PIE-DBSCAN demonstrates superior clustering performance and shows feasibility in practical applications.

文摘This paper proposes an attitude control strategy for a flexible satellite equipped with an orthogonal cluster of three-dimensional(3D)magnetically suspended wheels(MSWs).The mathematical model for the satellite incorporating flexible appendages and an orthogonal cluster of magnetically suspended reaction wheel actuators is initially developed.After that,an adaptive attitude controller is designed with a switching surface of variable structure,an adaptive law for estimating inertia matrix uncertainty,and a fuzzy disturbance observer for estimating disturbance torques.Additionally,a Moore-Penrose-based steering law is proposed to derive the tilt angle commands of the orthogonal configuration of the 3D MSW to follow the designed control signal.Finally,numerical simulations are presented to validate the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.

文摘The log-normal distribution function(LNDF)and Weibull cumulative density function(WCDF)represent two prevalent approaches for characterizing sediment grain size distributions.This study analyzes annual average suspended load grain size data(standardized to equivalent settling diameters)from seven hydrological stations in the lower Yellow River(LYR)spanning 1962–2020,employing various distribution functions for grain size fitting.Results demonstrate that the Weibull probability density function(WPDF)offers significant advantages over both LNDF and WCDF in terms of fitting accuracy,parameter stability,simplicity,and practical applicability for characterizing suspended load grain size distributions in the LYR.Based on these findings,universal formulas were developed for the suspended load grain size distribution across the seven stations and the entire lower reaches,yielding determination coefficients(R2)exceeding 0.9.These formulas can be applied to estimate suspended load grain size in data-scarce cross-sections.The existence of such universal formulas suggests that interannual fluctuations in suspended load grain size in the LYR are constrained within a limited range,suggesting that sediment grain size may represent an inherent property of the river channel.This limited variability may be attributed to the fact that sediments in the LYR are primarily derived from a relatively fixed source region—the Loess Plateau.The observed stability over an extended period also offers valuable insights into the fundamental properties of river systems and their long-term behavior.

文摘Based on optofluidics and whispering gallery mode(WGM)theory,here an optofluidic refractive index sensor with microtube-coupled suspended core fiber(SCF)is proposed.It solves the issues of general sensors with microcavity-coupled fiber taper such as too fragile,unstable performance due to open coupling,poor portability and repeatability,while overcoming the poor performance of low refractive index sensing in general full-package fiber sensors.The sensor only needs a very small amount of liquid sample(about 1.8 nL).The proposed sensor combines the excellent performance of full package,optofluidics and WGM resonator.The resonant characteristics and sensing performance of the sensor are analyzed and discussed by the theoretical simulation.The simulation results indicate that the sensor has a wide refractive index sensing range(1.330-1.700)and good performance.The resonance wavelength shift has a good linear relationship with the liquid refractive index variation.In the low refractive index region,the sensitivity is 222.5-247.5 nm/RIU,Q-factor is 1.03×10^(3) and the detection limit is 3.64×10^(-4) RIU.In the medium and high refractive index regions,the sensitivity is 564.4-846.2 nm/RIU,Q-factor is up to 8.62×10^(4),and the detection limit can be as low as 1.29×10^(-6) RIU.The sensor exhibits a high sensitivity,a high Q-factor and a very low detection limit.
