The main objectives are to find separation region and observe the influence of inlet swirling flow on the velocity fluctuation using ultrasound technique. The experiments were carried out in the pipe at Reynolds number Re = 1 × 104. In case of inlet swirling flow condition, a rotary swirler was used as swirling generator, and the swirl number was setup S = 1. The ultrasonic measurements were taken at four downstream locations of the second bend pipe. Phased Array Ultrasonic Velocity Profiler (Phased Array UVP) technique was applied to obtain the two-dimensional velocity of the fluid and the axial and tangential velocity fluctuation. It was found that the secondary reverse flow became smaller at the downstream from the bend when the inlet condition on the first bend was swirling flow. In addition, inlet swirling condition influenced mainly on the tangential velocity fluctuation, and its maximum turbulence intensity was 40%.展开更多

The cell is horizontally vibrated to eliminate the effect of gravity compaction. The velocity distributions at different particle number densities are studied and found to obey the form exp[-β(|Vy|/σy)α], in which Vy and (σy are velocity and its variance in the transverse direction, and α and β are fitting parameters. The value of α is found to decrease with the number density of particles increasing. To investigate the effect of the bottom plate, the molecular dynamics simulation without considering any bottom friction is performed. The accordance between the simulation result and the experimental result shows that the influence of bottom plate friction force on the high energy tail of the velocity distribution can be neglected.展开更多

This paper presents the two-dimensional (2D) velocity profile measurement using a two-element ultrasonic transducer with both elements acting as a transceiver. The size of the transducer is minimized for compactness, leading to a narrow sound field appropriate for applications in fuel rod bundle flow. Furthermore, the transducer’s sound pressure is evaluated via simulations and experimental measurements. In order to confirm the ability of the ultrasonic velocity profiler (UVP) with a two-element transducer, the experimental measurement is conducted in turbulent horizontal pipe flow. The 2D velocity vector profile is obtained, and then the measurement in swirling flow is conducted. The 2D velocity profile in an axial and radial plane is obtained utilizing the UVP measurement. Lastly, the ability of the UVP to derive the 2D velocity profile in the narrow area of the rod bundles is demonstrated.展开更多

The distributions of band structure and the group velocity are both characterized as a function of the coupling. we studied the system’s topological states and group velocity control. The results show that the movement and breaking of Dirac points exist in the energy band of the system. By changing the coupling coefficients, the conversion between any topological states corresponds to different Chern number. Topological edge states exist in topological nontrivial systems that correspond to the two different Chern numbers. Besides, it is also found that both the coupling coefficient and the wave vector can cause the oscillation of the pulse group velocity. At the same time, the topological state can suppress the amplitude of the group velocity profiles. Our findings enrich the theory of light wave manipulation in high-dimensional photonic lattices and provide a novel view for realizing linear localization and group velocity regulation of light waves,which has potential application in high-speed optical communication and quantum information fields.展开更多

Many researchers have identified these faults as potential strong-earthquake risk zones. In this study, we leveraged a dense seismic array to investigate the high-resolution shallow crust shear wave velocity(Vs) structure beneath the junction of the Zemuhe Fault Zone and the Xiaojiang Fault Zone, one of the most complex parts of the eastern boundary of the South Chuan–Dian Block. We analyzed the distribution of microseismic events detected between November 2022 and February 2023 based on the fine-scale Vs model obtained. The microseismicity in the study region was clustered into three groups, all spatially related to major faults in this region. These microseismic events indicate near-vertical fault planes, consistent with the fault geometry revealed by other researchers.Moreover, these microseismic events are influenced by the impoundment of the downstream Baihetan Reservoir and the complex tectonic stress near the junction of the Zemuhe Fault Zone and the Xiaojiang Fault Zone. The depths of these microseismic events are shallower in the junction zone, whereas moving south along the Xiaojiang Fault Zone, the microseismic events become deeper.Additionally, we compared our fine-scale local Vs model with velocity models obtained by other researchers and found that our model offers greater detail in characterizing subsurface heterogeneity while demonstrating improved reliability in delineating fault systems.展开更多

文摘The transformation from multibody models to lumped-parameter models is a crucial aspect of vehicle dynamics research.The velocity transformation method is adopted in this research,and the suspension multibody model is described using only one degree of freedom.It is found that the equivalent mass of the system is time-dependent during the simulation process,as observed in numerical simulations.Further symbolic calculations are conducted to derive the analytical form of the equivalent mass,and the results show that once the static parameters are determined,the equivalent mass of the suspension system is determined solely by the vertical position of the suspension upright,which reveals the kinematics characteristic of the equivalent mass of the suspension system.It is found that the equivalent mass experiences smaller changes when the suspension is compressed from the middle position,but larger changes when the suspension is extended.Furthermore,by comparing the multibody model,the lumped-parameter model with static mass,and the proposed lumped-parameter model considering the kinematics characteristic of the equivalent unsprung mass,the proposed model produces simulation results that more closely match the original multibody model than the model with static mass.The improvements in accuracy can be up to 20%under certain evaluation metrics.

文摘This study presents an inversion method to recover the tidal flow velocity using tidal signals extracted from geomagnetic satellite dataset.By integrating the latest Earth conductivity profile and the Earth's magnetic field model,the limited memory quasi-Newton method(L-BFGS)is used to directly invert seawater flow velocities.We used the radial component of the induced magnetic field as the observed data,constructed an L_(2)-norm-based data misfit term using theoretical response and observed data,and applied smoothness constraints to the ocean flow velocity.The results agree well with the widely used HAMTIDE model in low-and mid-latitude regions,which is attributed to Macao Science Satellite-1's(MSS-1)unique low-inclination orbit of full coverage in these areas.These findings underscore MSS-1's potential to advance research on tidal-induced magnetic fields and their applications in ocean dynamics studies.

文摘The Anninghe–Zemuhe Fault and the Xiaojiang Fault are critical active faults along the middle-eastern boundary of the South Chuan–Dian Block. Many researchers have identified these faults as potential strong-earthquake risk zones. In this study, we leveraged a dense seismic array to investigate the high-resolution shallow crust shear wave velocity(Vs) structure beneath the junction of the Zemuhe Fault Zone and the Xiaojiang Fault Zone, one of the most complex parts of the eastern boundary of the South Chuan–Dian Block. We analyzed the distribution of microseismic events detected between November 2022 and February 2023 based on the fine-scale Vs model obtained. The microseismicity in the study region was clustered into three groups, all spatially related to major faults in this region. These microseismic events indicate near-vertical fault planes, consistent with the fault geometry revealed by other researchers.Moreover, these microseismic events are influenced by the impoundment of the downstream Baihetan Reservoir and the complex tectonic stress near the junction of the Zemuhe Fault Zone and the Xiaojiang Fault Zone. The depths of these microseismic events are shallower in the junction zone, whereas moving south along the Xiaojiang Fault Zone, the microseismic events become deeper.Additionally, we compared our fine-scale local Vs model with velocity models obtained by other researchers and found that our model offers greater detail in characterizing subsurface heterogeneity while demonstrating improved reliability in delineating fault systems.
文摘A functional interlayer based on two-dimensional(2D)porous modified vermiculite nanosheets(PVS)was obtained by acid-etching vermiculite nanosheets.The as-obtained 2D porous nanosheets exhibited a high specific surface area of 427 m^(2)·g^(-1)and rich surface active sites,which help restrain polysulfides(LiPSs)through good physi-cal and chemical adsorption,while simultaneously accelerating the nucleation and dissolution kinetics of Li_(2)S,effec-tively suppressing the shuttle effect.The assembled lithium-sulfur batteries(LSBs)employing the PVS-based inter-layer delivered a high initial discharge capacity of 1386 mAh·g^(-1)at 0.1C(167.5 mAh·g^(-1)),long-term cycling stabil-ity,and good rate property.

文摘This paper investigates ruin,capital injection,and dividends for a two-dimensional risk model.The model posits that surplus levels of insurance companies are governed by a perturbed composite Poisson risk model.This model introduces a dependence between the two surplus levels,present in both the associated perturbations and the claims resulting from common shocks.Critical levels of capital injection and dividends are established for each of the two risks.The surplus levels are observed discretely at fixed intervals,guiding decisions on capital injection,dividends,and ruin at these junctures.This study employs a two-dimensional Fourier cosine series expansion method to approximate the finite time expected discounted operating cost until ruin.The ensuing approximation error is also quantified.The validity and accuracy of the method are corroborated through numerical examples.Furthermore,the research delves into the optimal capital allocation problem.

文摘The Longmenshan(LMS)fault zone is located at the junction of the eastern Tibetan Plateau and the Sichuan Basin and is of great significance for studying regional tectonics and earthquake hazards.Although regional velocity models are available for the LMS fault zone,high-resolution velocity models are lacking.Therefore,a dense array of 240 short-period seismometers was deployed around the central segment of the LMS fault zone for approximately 30 days to monitor earthquakes and characterize fine structures of the fault zone.Considering the large quantity of observed seismic data,the data processing workflow consisted of deep learning-based automatic earthquake detection,phase arrival picking,and association.Compared with the earthquake catalog released by the China Earthquake Administration,many more earthquakes were detected by the dense array.Double-difference seismic tomography was adopted to determine V_(p),V_(s),and V_(p)/V_(s)models as well as earthquake locations.The checkerboard test showed that the velocity models have spatial resolutions of approximately 5 km in the horizontal directions and 2 km at depth.To the west of the Yingxiu–Beichuan Fault(YBF),the Precambrian Pengguan complex,where most of earthquakes occurred,is characterized by high velocity and low V_(p)/V_(s)values.In comparison,to the east of the YBF,the Upper Paleozoic to Jurassic sediments,where few earthquakes occurred,show low velocity and high V_(p)/V_(s)values.Our results suggest that the earthquake activity in the LMS fault zone is controlled by the strength of the rock compositions.When the high-resolution velocity models were combined with the relocated earthquakes,we were also able to delineate the fault geometry for different faults in the LMS fault zone.

文摘Lithium-sulfur(Li-S)batteries with high energy density and capacity have garnered significant research attention among various energy storage devices.However,the shuttle effect of polysulfides(LiPSs)remains a major challenge for their practical application.The design of battery separators has become a key aspect in addressing the challenge.MXenes,a promising two-dimensional(2D)material,offer exceptional conductivity,large surface area,high mechanical strength,and active sites for surface reactions.When assembled into layered films,MXenes form highly tunable two-dimensional channels ranging from a few angstroms to over 1 nm.These nanoconfined channels are instrumental in facilitating lithium-ion transport while effectively impeding the shuttle effect of LiPSs,which are essential for improving the specific capacity and cyclic stability of Li-S batteries.Substantial progress has been made in developing MXenes-based separators for Li-S batteries,yet there remains a research gap in summarizing advancements from the perspective of interlayer engineering.This entails maintaining the 2D nanochannels of layered MXenes-based separators while modulating the physicochemical environment within the MXenes interlayers through targeted modifications.This review highlights advancements in in situ modification of MXenes and their integration with 0D,1D,and 2D materials to construct laminated nanocomposite separators for Li-S batteries.The future development directions of MXenes-based materials in Li-S energy storage devices are also outlined,to drive further advancements in MXenes for Li-S battery separators.

文摘The characterization of subsurface formations via the analysis of near-wellbore velocity profiles represents a crucial method in geophysical exploration.This technique enables the evaluation of key parameters,including rock brittleness,wellbore stability,fracturing effects,and invasion extent,thereby enhancing comprehension of formation structures and informing exploration strategies.However,traditional near-wellbore formation velocity imaging methods exhibit two principal limitations.First,these methods lack azimuthal sensitivity,yielding results averaged across all directions.Second,they are computationally intensive and impractical for well-site environments.To address these drawbacks,we developed a rapid 3D velocity imaging method for array acoustic logging instru ments equipped with azimuthal receivers,capable of producing 3D imaging results efficiently.The workflow entails the following steps:(1)Band-pass filtering of logging data to mitigate scattered wave interference caused by formation heterogeneity near the wellbore;(2)combination of receivers with varying detection ranges in each direction to derive radial velocity sequences,followed by integration of ray-tracing theory to obtain 2D velocity distributions;and(3)synthesis of final 3D velocity imaging results via interpolation of these 2D datasets.In the velocity sequence extraction process,we significantly reduced the computational load by employing an adaptive time window,ensuring rapid and stable application in well-site settings.We utilized the finite difference method to construct well models with heteroge neous formations.The compressional and shear wave 3D velocity imaging results derived from synthetic data correlated with the model,demonstrating the azimuthal sensitivity of our proposed method.Furthermore,we applied this method to a well in West China,successfully identifying the azimuth of nearwellbore anisotropy.

文摘The Sichuan-Yunnan Block is located on the southeastern margin of the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau and has frequent seismic activity on the western border,posing a potential threat to human society and economic development.Therefore,it is important to understand its geological evolution,assess earthquake risks,and formulate scientific and reasonable disaster prevention and mitigation strategies.Using 23 months of continuous ambient noise records from 81 seismic stations,we obtained 1248 phasevelocity dispersion curves of the fundamental Rayleigh wave at 5–50 s.The three-dimensional(3D)S-wave velocity structure in the northwestern Sichuan-Yunnan Block was obtained by pure-path and depth inversion.The results show that three lowvelocity anomalous bands were distributed nearly north-to-south(N-S)at depths of 10–35 km.The overall shape of the lowvelocity channel gradually shifted from southeast to southwest because of the influence of the Panzhihua high-velocity blocks.The low-velocity strip consists of three branches,with the first branch extending southwest from the northern part of the Lancangjiang Fault.The second branch is distributed in the N-S direction and is blocked by two high-velocity bodies near the Longpan-Qiaohou and Honghe faults.The third branch crosses the research area from N-S and gradually extends from southeast to southwest and from shallow to deep.The three low-velocity anomaly distribution areas are likely the most severely deformed areas of the collision between the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau and Yangtze Block.The results provide a more detailed understanding of the deep structure of the western boundary of the Sichuan-Yunnan Block crustal low-velocity anomalies and reliable geophysical evidence for the morphology and continuity of crustal flows.
