文摘The subantarctic mode water(SAMW)represents a large water mass in the Southern Ocean.This body of water forms through deep convection(subduction)in winter and contributes to the uptake and storage of anthropogenic heat.However,its longterm changes in subduction rate and volume in response to shifting climate conditions are unclear.In this study,we investigated the long-term trend of the subduction rate and volume of the South Pacific–SAMW(SPSAMW)using Simple Ocean Data Assimilation outputs during 1980–2017.The results show the overall increasing trend of the subduction rate of the SPSAMW.The increased subduction of the SPSAMW directly contributes to the volume variation in the SPSAMW.The increased subduction in the South Pacific reached(0.28±0.16)Sv-1 per year,which explains nearly 68%of the volume increase in the SPSAMW.This variability in the SPSAMW reflects alterations in the overlying atmosphere.The positive to negative phase change of the Interdecadal Pacific Oscillation(IPO)in 1980–2017 deepened the Amundsen Sea Low(ASL)via atmospheric teleconnections over the South Pacific.Further analysis reveals that the increased westerly winds during the deepening of ASL resulted in more cold water transport from the south,which deepened the winter mixed layer and thus increased subduction and volume within the SPSAMW subduction region.This finding suggests the association of the long-term trends of SPSAMW subduction and volume with the phase change of the IPO.

文摘Climate models are essential for understanding past,present,and future changes in atmospheric circulation,with circulation modes providing key sources of seasonal predictability and prediction uncertainties for both global and regional climates.This study assesses the performance of models participating in phase 6 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project in simulating interannual variability modes of Northern Hemisphere 500-hPa geopotential height during winter and summer,distinguishing predictable(potentially predictable on seasonal or longer timescales)and unpredictable(intraseasonal and essentially unpredictable at long range)components,using reanalysis data and a variance decomposition method.Although most models effectively capture unpredictable modes in reanalysis,their ability to reproduce dominant predictable modes-specifically the Pacific-North American pattern,Arctic Oscillation,and Western Pacific Oscillation in winter,and the East Atlantic and North Atlantic Oscillations in summer-varies notably.An optimal ensemble is identified to distinguish(a)predictable-external modes,dominated by external forcing,and(b)predictable-internal modes,associated with slow internal variability,during the historical period(1950-2014)and the SSP5-8.5 scenario(2036-2100).Under increased radiative forcing,the leading winter/summer predictable-external mode exhibits a more uniform spatial distribution,remarkably larger trend and annual variance,and enhanced height-sea surface temperature(SST)covariance under SSP5-8.5 compared to historical conditions.The dominant winter/summer predictable-internal modes also exhibit increased variance and height-SST covariance under SSP5-8.5,along with localized changes in spatial configuration.Minimal changes are observed in spatial distribution or variance for dominant winter/summer unpredictable modes under SSP5-8.5.This study,from a predictive perspective,deepens our understanding of model uncertainties and projected changes in circulations.

文摘Mode shift is a special mechanism for a power-split hybrid electric vehicle(HEV)to realise electrically variable transmission,but the sudden change of equivalent inertia caused by topological configuration recombination during mode shift induces a significant torque shock.Therefore,a smooth transient process,among other concerns,typically associated with this category of vehicles,is of great importance.The present research aims to introduce a novel control strategy to manage the dynamic torque of multiple power sources and therefore im-prove ride comfort.To this end,a dynamic model of the objective power-split HEV is first built.To resolve the contention between vehicle jerk and clutch friction loss,a model predictive control(MPC)combined with control allocation(CA)is then designed for the clutch-engaged phase.To reduce the torque fluctuation caused by the inertia torques of multiple power sources,a dynamic compensation control strategy(DCcs)that coordinates motorgenerator torque to compensate for the transition torque is proposed for the brake-disengaged phase.Finally,the proposed control strategy is validated by simulation and bench test,and results show great potential in reducing shift duration,torque variation,vehicle jerk and friction loss(the simulation results show decreases of 22%,39%,83%and 53%,and the experimental results show decreases of 21%,74%,77%,and 59%,re-spectively),thereby improving shift quality.

文摘Flexible materials play a crucial role in protecting against behind armour blunt trauma(BABT).However,their compliance complicates the understanding of failure mechanisms and energy absorption.This study used a combined experimental and numerical approach to investigate the response and failure modes of a flexible ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene(UHMWPE)foam protective sandwich structure(UFPSS)under low-velocity impact(LVI).A finite element(FE)model,accounting for nonlinear large deformation and strain-rate-dependent material behavior,was developed for a woven-UFPSS(featuring a plain-woven fabric structure)subjected to a 50 J impact.Experimental and numerical results showed strong agreement in peak force(error<5%),maximum displacement(error<6%),and buffer time(error<8%).The impact's kinetic energy was mainly converted into internal energy of the fabric and foam materials(~50%),viscous dissipation in the foam core(12%-15%),frictional work at the contact interfaces(5%-6%),and work by the pneumatic fixture clamping force(~38%).This study provides the first investigation of the LVI performance of sandwich structures with all soft material layers,offering significant insights for the application of compliant materials in protective fields.

文摘In this paper,a unified terminal sliding mode(UTSM)control method is proposed for second-order nonlinear systems with uncertainties and disturbances.It is seen that the newly defined terminal sliding surface is integrated with both conventional and fast terminal sliding mode and exhibits design advantages such as a variable exponent,adjustable sliding mode parameters,and chattering-alleviation effect.The inherent dynamic properties of the closed-loop systems with the UTSM control are discussed in detail via the phase plane and Lyapunov stability theory.Both numerical simulations and experimental results show the flexible sliding manifold design,strong robustness against uncertain dynamics,and effective attenuation of chattering phenomenon.

文摘For the ultra HVDC(UHVDC)with the hierarchical connection mode at the inverter side,considering the change of the Thevenin equivalent parameters(TEP)of post-fault AC grid,a coordinated control strategy to the subsequent commutation failure(SCF)at both layers is newly proposed.The originality of this work is manifested in three aspects.1)The mechanism of the SCF at the fault layer is newly found by deriving the analytical expression of the extinction angle with the TEP,and that at the non-fault layer is newly found by the voltage-time area theory with the DC current coupling.2)An estimation model for the TEPs of two AC grids at the inverter side is proposed with the post-fault quantities.To address the random noise and inaccurate measurement data,an adaptive robust least squares method based on the median principle is proposed to solve the TEP model.3)A coordinated control strategy with the estimated TEP is proposed to compensate for the extinction angle at the fault layer and limit the DC current at the non-fault layer,thus suppressing the SCF.The simulation results verify the suppression effect of the proposed control on the SCF under different fault conditions.

文摘This paper proposes a trajectory tracking control scheme for vertical/short take-off and landing(V/STOL)vehicles.Owing to their high number of controllable degrees of freedom and strong nonlinearity,the design of flight control systems for such vehicles presents considerable challenges,particularly in developing controllers capable of accurately tracking specified trajectories.Building on existing control strategies for various vehicle types,this study introduces an extended control framework tailored for V/STOL systems.The proposed scheme consists of two nested loops:an outer position control loop and an inner attitude control loop.The position loop employs a proportional-integral-derivative(PID)control algorithm,whereas the attitude loop utilizes an anti-saturation integral sliding mode control algorithm.This approach effectively alleviates the integral oversaturation issue inherent in conventional sliding mode methods and suppresses buffeting through a boundary layer technique.Simulation results demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed control strategy.

文摘In this paper,a security defense issue is investigated for networked control systems susceptible to stochastic denial of service(DoS) attacks by using the sliding mode control method.To utilize network communication resources more effectively,a novel adaptive event-triggered(AET) mechanism is introduced,whose triggering coefficient can be adaptively adjusted according to the evolution trend of system states.Differing from existing event-triggered(ET) mechanisms,the proposed one demonstrates exceptional relevance and flexibility.It is closely related to attack probability,and its triggering coefficient dynamically adjusts depending on the presence or absence of an attack.To leverage attacker information more effectively,a switching-like sliding mode security controller is designed,which can autonomously select different controller gains based on the sliding function representing the attack situation.Sufficient conditions for the existence of the switching-like sliding mode secure controller are presented to ensure the stochastic stability of the system and the reachability of the sliding surface.Compared with existing time-invariant control strategies within the triggered interval,more resilient defense performance can be expected since the correlation with attack information is established in both the proposed AET scheme and the control strategy.Finally,a simulation example is conducted to verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed security control method.
