This study examines the large-scale circulation anomalies responsible for this extreme event.Analysis reveals that the lower-tropospheric cyclonic anomaly over SC plays a crucial role. This cyclonic anomaly consists of extratropical northeasterly anomalies to the north of SC and tropical southwesterly anomalies to the south. Both components were particularly intense during the 2022 first rainy season, contributing to the heavy rainfall in SC. Moreover,the lower-tropospheric cyclonic anomaly is enhanced by its counterpart in the upper troposphere, which is associated with a wave train propagating from the North Atlantic to East Asia across the mid-high latitudes of the Eurasian continent.Further analysis indicates that the extratropical wave train correlates with sea surface temperature anomalies(SSTAs) in the North Atlantic. Additionally, the SSTAs over the North Indian Ocean also play a role in enhancing the tropical southwesterlies in the lower troposphere. This study highlights the combined influence of tropical and extratropical circulation anomalies, offering a comprehensive understanding of the record-breaking rainfall.展开更多

文摘Offshore wind power plays a crucial role in energy strategies.The results of traditional small-scale physical models may be unreliable when extrapolated to large field scales.This study addressed this limitation by conducting large-scale(1:13)experiments to investigate the scour hole pattern and equilibrium scour depth around both slender and large monopiles under irregular waves.The experiments adopted KeuleganeCarpenter number(NKC)values from 1.01 to 8.89 and diffraction parameter(D/L,where D is the diameter of the monopile,and L is the wave length)values from 0.016 to 0.056.The results showed that changes in the maximum scour location and scour hole shape around a slender monopile were associated with NKC,with differences observed between irregular and regular waves.Improving the calculation of NKC enhanced the accuracy of existing scour formulae under irregular waves.The maximum scour locations around a large monopile were consistently found on both sides,regardless of NKC and D/L,but the scour hole topography was influenced by both parameters.Notably,the scour range around a large monopile was at least as large as the monopile diameter.

文摘In 2022, South China(SC) experienced record-breaking rainfall during its first rainy season, causing severe socioeconomic losses. This study examines the large-scale circulation anomalies responsible for this extreme event.Analysis reveals that the lower-tropospheric cyclonic anomaly over SC plays a crucial role. This cyclonic anomaly consists of extratropical northeasterly anomalies to the north of SC and tropical southwesterly anomalies to the south. Both components were particularly intense during the 2022 first rainy season, contributing to the heavy rainfall in SC. Moreover,the lower-tropospheric cyclonic anomaly is enhanced by its counterpart in the upper troposphere, which is associated with a wave train propagating from the North Atlantic to East Asia across the mid-high latitudes of the Eurasian continent.Further analysis indicates that the extratropical wave train correlates with sea surface temperature anomalies(SSTAs) in the North Atlantic. Additionally, the SSTAs over the North Indian Ocean also play a role in enhancing the tropical southwesterlies in the lower troposphere. This study highlights the combined influence of tropical and extratropical circulation anomalies, offering a comprehensive understanding of the record-breaking rainfall.
文摘This study employs deformation monitoring data acquired during the construction of the Haoji railway large-scale bridge to investigate the displacement behavior of the subgrades,catenary columns,and tracks.Emphasis is placed on data acquisition and processing methods using total stations and automated monitoring systems.Through a comprehensive analysis of lateral,longitudinal,and vertical displacement data from 26 subgrade monitoring points,catenary columns,and track sections,this research evaluates how construction activities influence railway structures.The results show that displacement variations in the subgrades,catenary columns,and tracks remained within the established alert thresholds,exhibiting stable deformation trends and indicating that any adverse environmental impact was effectively contained.Furthermore,this paper proposes an early warning mechanism based on an automated monitoring system,which can promptly detect abnormal deformations and initiate emergency response procedures,thereby ensuring the safe operation of the railway.The integration of big data analysis and deformation prediction models offers a practical foundation for future safety management in railway construction.
文摘The research on optimization methods for constellation launch deployment strategies focused on the consideration of mission interval time constraints at the launch site.Firstly,a dynamic modeling of the constellation deployment process was established,and the relationship between the deployment window and the phase difference of the orbit insertion point,as well as the cost of phase adjustment after orbit insertion,was derived.Then,the combination of the constellation deployment position sequence was treated as a parameter,together with the sequence of satellite deployment intervals,as optimization variables,simplifying a highdimensional search problem within a wide range of dates to a finite-dimensional integer programming problem.An improved genetic algorithm with local search on deployment dates was introduced to optimize the launch deployment strategy.With the new description of the optimization variables,the total number of elements in the solution space was reduced by N orders of magnitude.Numerical simulation confirms that the proposed optimization method accelerates the convergence speed from hours to minutes.

文摘The existing deep-sea sediment plume tests are mostly under small-scale static water and rarely under large-scale flowing water conditions.In this study,large-scale tank experiments of flowing water were designed and conducted to investigate the morphological characteristics and concentration evolution of the sediment plumes under different discharge rates(Q)and initial sediment concentrations(c).Viscosity tests,resuspension tests and free settling tests of the sediment solution with different c values were performed to reveal the settling mechanism of the plume diffusion process.The results show that the plume diffusion morphology variation in flowing water has four stages and the plume concentration evolution has three stages.The larger the Q,the smaller the initial incidence angle at the discharge outlet,the larger the diffusion range,the poorer the stability and the more complicated the diffusion morphology.The larger the c,the larger the settling velocity,the faster the formation of high-concentration accumulation zone,the better the stability and the clearer the diffusion boundary.The research results could provide experimental data for assessing the impact of deep-sea mining on the ocean environment.

文摘Shock wave caused by a sudden release of high-energy,such as explosion and blast,usually affects a significant range of areas.The utilization of a uniform fine mesh to capture sharp shock wave and to obtain precise results is inefficient in terms of computational resource.This is particularly evident when large-scale fluid field simulations are conducted with significant differences in computational domain size.In this work,a variable-domain-size adaptive mesh enlargement(vAME)method is developed based on the proposed adaptive mesh enlargement(AME)method for modeling multi-explosives explosion problems.The vAME method reduces the division of numerous empty areas or unnecessary computational domains by adaptively suspending enlargement operation in one or two directions,rather than in all directions as in AME method.A series of numerical tests via AME and vAME with varying nonintegral enlargement ratios and different mesh numbers are simulated to verify the efficiency and order of accuracy.An estimate of speedup ratio is analyzed for further efficiency comparison.Several large-scale near-ground explosion experiments with single/multiple explosives are performed to analyze the shock wave superposition formed by the incident wave,reflected wave,and Mach wave.Additionally,the vAME method is employed to validate the accuracy,as well as to investigate the performance of the fluid field and shock wave propagation,considering explosive quantities ranging from 1 to 5 while maintaining a constant total mass.The results show a satisfactory correlation between the overpressure versus time curves for experiments and numerical simulations.The vAME method yields a competitive efficiency,increasing the computational speed to 3.0 and approximately 120,000 times in comparison to AME and the fully fine mesh method,respectively.It indicates that the vAME method reduces the computational cost with minimal impact on the results for such large-scale high-energy release problems with significant differences in computational domain size.
文摘The construction of island power grids is a systematic engineering task.To ensure the safe operation of power grid systems,optimizing the line layout of island power grids is crucial.Especially in the current context of large-scale distributed renewable energy integration into the power grid,conventional island power grid line layouts can no longer meet actual demands.It is necessary to combine the operational characteristics of island power systems and historical load data to perform load forecasting,thereby generating power grid line layout paths.This article focuses on large-scale distributed renewable energy integration,summarizing optimization strategies for island power grid line layouts,and providing a solid guarantee for the safe and stable operation of island power systems.

文摘This paper investigates the problem of dynamic event-triggered control for a class of large-scale nonlinear systems.In particular,both neutral delays and unknown backlash-like hysteresis are considered.This requires to integrate a compensation mechanism into the event-triggered control architecture.To this end,dynamic gain and adaptive control techniques are introduced to address the effects of neutral delays,unknown hysteresis and parameter uncertainties simultaneously.By introducing a non-negative internal dynamic variable,a dynamic event-triggered controller is designed using the hyperbolic tangent function to reduce the communication burden.By means of the Lyapunov–Krasovskii method,it is demonstrated that all signals of the closed-loop system are globally bounded and eventually converge to a tunable bounded region.Moreover,the Zeno behavior is avoided.Finally,a simulation example is presented to verify the validity of the control scheme.
