The coastal current systems affecting the sediment dispersal mainly include： the Taiwan Warm Current （TWC）, the Huanghai Sea Mixed Water （HSMW）, North Jiangsu near-shore current, and Zhejiang near-shore current etc. In winter, the current systems are stable. Their distribution affects the sediment from north Jiangsu expanding toward the Changjiang estuary in some degree .The front between Zhejiang coastal current and TWC blocks the expanding of sediment toward the sea. In the flood season, apart from the limitation by coastal current systems, the spatial and temporal distribution of suspended sediment is also affected by the runoff, which shows as the jet stream and fresh water. Spring and autumn are the transitional periods of the forming of expanding patterns of flood season and winter respectively. In addition, the re-suspended sediment caused by the wind wave may make the expanding range of near-shore sediment larger.展开更多

The pipelines become suspended in the river with flushing of floodwater. If the frequency of vortex shedding is near to the nature frequency of pipelines, it will cause resonance of the suspended pipeline and result in the damage of pipelines. In this paper, the buried parts of pipeline in soil are treated as the half unlimited long beam placed on the elastic foundations. The vibration partial differential equations of suspended pipe and the parts buried in soil are derived respectively. The iterative calculation method is then presented. The results obtained from the suggested method are proved to be identical with the measured values.展开更多

They were assimilated with the measured data in 2003, 2004, 2006 and 2007, using the tidal range＇s proportion conversion. Variations in TCD and TCV, preferential flow and SSC have been calculated. Influences of typical engineering projects such as Qingcaosha fresh water reservoir, Yangtze River Bridge, and land reclamation on the ebb and flood TCD, TCV and SSC in the North Channel for the last 10 years are discussed. The results show that： （1） currently, in the upper part of North Channel, the ebb tide dominates; after the construction of the typical projects, ebb TCD and TCV tends to be larger and the vertical average ebb and flood SSC decrease during the flood season while SSC increases during the dry season; （2） changes in the vertical average TCV are mainly contributed by seasonal runoff variation during the flood season, which is larger in the flood season than that in the dry season; the controlling parameters of increasing ebb TCD and TCV are those large-scale engineering projects in the North Channel; variation in SSC may result mainly from the reduction of basin annual sediment loads, large-scale nearshore projects and so on.展开更多

Using a silicon-glass anodic bonding and deep etching formation-and-release process,a 40μm-thick silicon spiral is formed, which is suspended on a glass substrate to eliminate substrate loss. The surfaces of the silicon spiral are coated with highly conformal copper by electroless plating to reduce the resis- tive loss in the conductor,with thin nickel film plated on the surface of the copper layer for final surface passivation. The fabricated inductor exhibits a self-resonance frequency higher than 15GHz,with a quality factor of about 40 and an inductance of over 5nil at 11.3GHz. Simulations based on a compact equivalent circuit model of the inductor and parameter extraction using a characteristic-function approach are carried out,and good agreement with measurements is obtained.展开更多

In this paper, the Xiamen Bay is chosen as the study area. Eleven different phases of the remote sensing data are selected to establish a quantitative remote sensing model to map suspended sediment by using remote sensing images and the quasi-synchronous measured sediment data. Based on empirical statistics developed are the conversion models between instantaneous suspended sediment concentration and tidally-averaged suspended sediment concentration as well as the conversion models between surface layer suspended sediment concentration and＂ the depth-averaged suspended sediment concentration. On this basis, the quantitative application integrated model on remote sensing of suspended sediment is developed. By using this model as well as multi-temporal remote sensing images, multi-year averaged suspended sediment concentration of the Xiamen Bay are predicted. The comparison between model prediction and observed data shows that the multi-year averaged suspended sediment concentration of studied sites as well as the concentration difference of neighboring sites can be well predicted by the remote sensing model with an error rate of 21.61% or less, which can satisfy the engineering requirements of channel deposition calculation.展开更多

The entire procedures for sample pretreatment, ultrasonic extraction （USE）, solid-phase extraction （SPE）, and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry （LC-MS） quantification were examined and optimized. The recovery efficiencies were found to be 76%-104% for sulfonamides, 81%-112% for tetracyclines, and 51%--64% for tiamulin at three spiking levels. The intra-day and inter-day precisions, as expressed by the relative standard deviation （RSD）, were below 17%. The method detection limits （MDLs） were between 0.14 and 7.14 μg/kg, depending on a specific antibiotic studied. The developed method was applied to field samples collected from three concentrated swine feeding plants located in Beijing, Shanghai and Shandong province of China. All the investigated antibiotics were detected in both SS and liquid phase of swine wastewater, with partition coefficients （logKd） ranging from 0.49 to 2.30. This study demonstrates that the SS can not be ignored when determining the concentrations of antibiotics in swine wastewater.展开更多

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.
文摘This paper, with NOAA/AHHRR data for 2 years, discusses the expanding path and extent of suspended sediment from the Changjiang River, and the relationship between the suspended sediment expanding and coastal current systems by analyzing the thermal infrared imagery with the sediment imagery, which is acquired by correlating the atmosphere corrected AVHRR imagery with in-situ suspended sediment data. The coastal current systems affecting the sediment dispersal mainly include： the Taiwan Warm Current （TWC）, the Huanghai Sea Mixed Water （HSMW）, North Jiangsu near-shore current, and Zhejiang near-shore current etc. In winter, the current systems are stable. Their distribution affects the sediment from north Jiangsu expanding toward the Changjiang estuary in some degree .The front between Zhejiang coastal current and TWC blocks the expanding of sediment toward the sea. In the flood season, apart from the limitation by coastal current systems, the spatial and temporal distribution of suspended sediment is also affected by the runoff, which shows as the jet stream and fresh water. Spring and autumn are the transitional periods of the forming of expanding patterns of flood season and winter respectively. In addition, the re-suspended sediment caused by the wind wave may make the expanding range of near-shore sediment larger.
文摘The buried pipelines are widely used in oil transportation. The pipelines become suspended in the river with flushing of floodwater. If the frequency of vortex shedding is near to the nature frequency of pipelines, it will cause resonance of the suspended pipeline and result in the damage of pipelines. In this paper, the buried parts of pipeline in soil are treated as the half unlimited long beam placed on the elastic foundations. The vibration partial differential equations of suspended pipe and the parts buried in soil are derived respectively. The iterative calculation method is then presented. The results obtained from the suggested method are proved to be identical with the measured values.

文摘In order to simplify the fabrication process,distribute the temperature uniformly and reduce the power consumption of the micro-hotplate（MHP） gas sensor,a planar-type gas sensor based on SnO2 thin film with suspended structure is designed through a MEMS process.Steady-state thermal analysis of the gas sensor and the closed membrane type sensor where the membrane overlaps the Si substrate is carried out with the finite element model,and it is shown that the suspended planar-type gas sensor has a more homogeneous temperature distribution and a lower power consumption.When the maximum temperature on the sensor reaches 383℃,the power consumption is only 7 mW,and the temperature gradient across the thin film is less than 14℃.To overcome the fragility of the suspended beams,a novel fabrication process in which the deposition of the gas sensing film occurs prior to the formation of suspended beams is proposed.The back side of the Si substrate is etched through deep reactive ion etching（DRIE） to avoid chemical pollution of the front side.The fabrication steps in which only four masks are used for the photolithography are described in detail.The Fe doped SnO2 thin film synthesized by sol-gel spin-coating is used as the gas sensing element.The device is tested on hydrogen and exhibits satisfactory sensing performance.The sensitivity increases with the rise of the concentration from 50×10-6 to 2000×10-6,and reaches about 30 at 2000×10-6.
文摘The tidal current duration （TCD） and velocity （TCV） and suspended sediment concentration （SSC） were measured in the dry season in December, 2011 and in the flood season in June, 2012 at the upper part of the North Channel of Changjiang Estuary. They were assimilated with the measured data in 2003, 2004, 2006 and 2007, using the tidal range＇s proportion conversion. Variations in TCD and TCV, preferential flow and SSC have been calculated. Influences of typical engineering projects such as Qingcaosha fresh water reservoir, Yangtze River Bridge, and land reclamation on the ebb and flood TCD, TCV and SSC in the North Channel for the last 10 years are discussed. The results show that： （1） currently, in the upper part of North Channel, the ebb tide dominates; after the construction of the typical projects, ebb TCD and TCV tends to be larger and the vertical average ebb and flood SSC decrease during the flood season while SSC increases during the dry season; （2） changes in the vertical average TCV are mainly contributed by seasonal runoff variation during the flood season, which is larger in the flood season than that in the dry season; the controlling parameters of increasing ebb TCD and TCV are those large-scale engineering projects in the North Channel; variation in SSC may result mainly from the reduction of basin annual sediment loads, large-scale nearshore projects and so on.
文摘Based on ANSYS/LS-DYNA, the dynamics analysis software, and using nonlinear dynamic finite element method, the process of a submarine pipeline impacted by dropped objects is simulated, Some conclusions are drawn： First, the damage depth of suspended pipe is smaller than that of the bare pipe in case of the same fall energy, and with the increase of fall energy, the difference grows; Second, with the falling object＇s speed and mass rising, the deformation of pipeline intensifies at the impact site and the maximum vibration amplitude of submarine pipeline increases; Third, when the fall energy is equal, the smaller the contact area of falling objects and pipeline is, the greater the damage depth of pipeline becomes; Fourth, changes of seabed soil parameters （shear elastic modulus, internal friction angle, density） have less influence on the suspended pipeline＇s dent depths and maximum vibration amplitude,
文摘The data of SeaWiFS (Sea-Viewing Wide Field-of-View Sensor), installed on SeaStar, has been used to generate SSC (suspended sediment concentration) of complex and turbid coastal waters in China. In view of the problems of the SeaDAS (SeaWiFS Data Analysis System) algorithm applied to China coastal waters, a new atmospheric correction algorithm is discussed, developed, and used for the SSC of East China coastal waters. The advantages of the new algorithm are described through the comparison of the results from different algorithms.
文摘A novel MEMS inductor consisting of a planar single crystalline silicon spiral with a copper surface coating as the conductor is presented. Using a silicon-glass anodic bonding and deep etching formation-and-release process,a 40μm-thick silicon spiral is formed, which is suspended on a glass substrate to eliminate substrate loss. The surfaces of the silicon spiral are coated with highly conformal copper by electroless plating to reduce the resis- tive loss in the conductor,with thin nickel film plated on the surface of the copper layer for final surface passivation. The fabricated inductor exhibits a self-resonance frequency higher than 15GHz,with a quality factor of about 40 and an inductance of over 5nil at 11.3GHz. Simulations based on a compact equivalent circuit model of the inductor and parameter extraction using a characteristic-function approach are carried out,and good agreement with measurements is obtained.

文摘Quantitative application on remote sensing of suspended sediment is an important aspect of the engineering application of remote sensing study. In this paper, the Xiamen Bay is chosen as the study area. Eleven different phases of the remote sensing data are selected to establish a quantitative remote sensing model to map suspended sediment by using remote sensing images and the quasi-synchronous measured sediment data. Based on empirical statistics developed are the conversion models between instantaneous suspended sediment concentration and tidally-averaged suspended sediment concentration as well as the conversion models between surface layer suspended sediment concentration and＂ the depth-averaged suspended sediment concentration. On this basis, the quantitative application integrated model on remote sensing of suspended sediment is developed. By using this model as well as multi-temporal remote sensing images, multi-year averaged suspended sediment concentration of the Xiamen Bay are predicted. The comparison between model prediction and observed data shows that the multi-year averaged suspended sediment concentration of studied sites as well as the concentration difference of neighboring sites can be well predicted by the remote sensing model with an error rate of 21.61% or less, which can satisfy the engineering requirements of channel deposition calculation.

文摘This work describes a systematic approach to the development of a method for simultaneous determination of three classes of veterinary antibiotics in the suspended solids （SS） of swine wastewater, including five sulfonamides, three tetracyclines and one macrolide （tiamulin）. The entire procedures for sample pretreatment, ultrasonic extraction （USE）, solid-phase extraction （SPE）, and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry （LC-MS） quantification were examined and optimized. The recovery efficiencies were found to be 76%-104% for sulfonamides, 81%-112% for tetracyclines, and 51%--64% for tiamulin at three spiking levels. The intra-day and inter-day precisions, as expressed by the relative standard deviation （RSD）, were below 17%. The method detection limits （MDLs） were between 0.14 and 7.14 μg/kg, depending on a specific antibiotic studied. The developed method was applied to field samples collected from three concentrated swine feeding plants located in Beijing, Shanghai and Shandong province of China. All the investigated antibiotics were detected in both SS and liquid phase of swine wastewater, with partition coefficients （logKd） ranging from 0.49 to 2.30. This study demonstrates that the SS can not be ignored when determining the concentrations of antibiotics in swine wastewater.
