The research shows that the estuarine fronts mainly lie in the area from the Jiyu Islet to the Haimen Island, outside of Yuweizai to Hulishan cross-section, the near coast of Yuweizai and the south of the Songyu-Gulangyu Channel. The fronts in the former two regions are formed directly by plume, while the one near the coast of Yuweizai is a tidal intrusion front caused by flood current and the one at the south of the Songyu-Gulangyu Channel is the result of current shear transformation. Under normal circumstances, fresh water of the Jiulong River mainly influences the inside of the Xiamen Bay, and when it is in typhoon seasons, plume front can affect the Taiwan Strait and has an effect on the biogeochemical Drocesses in the strait.展开更多

The 3D-SCALO problem is a challenging bilevel combinatorial optimization task, involving the optimization of discrete component assignment variables in the outer layer and continuous component position variables in the inner layer,with both influencing each other. To address this issue, first, a Mixed Integer Programming(MIP) model is proposed, which reformulates the original bilevel problem into a single-level optimization problem, enabling the exploration of a more comprehensive optimization space while avoiding iterative nested optimization. Then, to model the 3D geometric relationships between components within the MIP framework, a linearized 3D Phi-function method is proposed, which handles non-overlapping and safety distance constraints between cuboid components in an explicit and effective way. Subsequently, the Finite-Rectangle Method(FRM) is proposed to manage 3D geometric constraints for complex-shaped components by approximating them with a finite set of cuboids, extending the applicability of the geometric modeling approach. Finally, the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed MIP model are demonstrated through two numerical examples"and a real-world engineering case, which confirms its suitability for complex-shaped components and real engineering applications.展开更多

文摘To comprehensively utilize the valuable geological map,exploration profile,borehole,and geochemical logging data and the knowledge on the formation of the Jinshan Ag-Au deposit for forecasting the exploration targets of concealed ore bodies,three-dimensional Mineral Prospectivity Modeling(MPM)of the deposit has been conducted using the weights-of-evidence(WofE)method.Conditional independence between evidence layers was tested,and the outline results using the prediction-volume(P-V)and Student's t-statistic methods for delineating favorable mineralization areas from continuous posterior probability map were critically compared.Four exploration targets delineated ultimately by the Student's t-statistic method for the discovery of minable ore bodies in each of the target areas were discussed in detail.The main conclusions include:(1)three-dimensional modeling of a deposit using multi-source reconnaissance data is useful for MPM in interpreting their relationships with known ore bodies;(2)WofE modeling can be used as a straightforward tool for integrating deposit model and reconnaissance data in MPM;(3)the Student's t-statistic method is more applicable in binarizing the continuous prospectivity map for exploration targeting than the PV approach;and(4)two target areas within high potential to find undiscovered ore bodies were diagnosed to guide future near-mine exploration activities of the Jinshan deposit.

文摘With the increasing development of deepburied engineering projects,rockburst disasters have become a frequent concern.Studies have indicated that tunnel diameter is a critical factor influencing the occurrence of rockbursts.To investigate the influence of tunnel diameter on the deformation and failure characteristics of surrounding rock,large-sized rocklike gypsum specimens were tested using a selfdeveloped true triaxial rockburst loading system containing circular tunnels with three different diameters(D=0.07 m,0.11 m,and 0.15 m).Acoustic emission monitoring,together with a miniature intelligent camera,was employed to analyze the entire process,focusing on macroscopic failure patterns,fragment characteristics,and underlying failure mechanisms.In addition,theoretical analyses were carried out and combined with numerical simulations to investigate the differences in energy evolution associated with rockburst physical models.The results indicate that:(1)The rockburst process with different tunnel diameters consistently evolved through three distinct stages—initial particle ejection,crack propagation accompanied by flake spalling,and,finally,fragment ejection leading to the formation of a‘V'-shaped notch.(2)Increasing tunnel diameter reduces rockburst failure load while increasing surrounding rock damage extent,total mass and average size of ejected fragments.Additionally,shear failure proportion decreases with tensile failure becoming increasingly dominant.(3)Larger tunnel diameters reduce the attenuation rate of elastic strain energy,thereby expanding the zone of elastic strain energy accumulation and disturbance and creating conditions for larger volume rockburst.(4)Larger tunnel diameters result in a smaller principal stress ratio at equivalent distances in the surrounding rock,indicating a higher likelihood of tensile failure.(5)Numerical analyses further reveal that larger tunnel diameters reduce the maximum elastic strain energy density around the tunnel,lowering the energy released per unit volume of rockburst fragments and their ejection velocities.However,both the total failure volume and overall energy release from rockburst increase.Model experiments with different tunnel diameters are of great significance for optimizing engineering design and parameter selection,as well as guiding tunnel construction under complex geological conditions.

文摘Satellite Component Layout Optimization(SCLO) is crucial in satellite system design.This paper proposes a novel Satellite Three-Dimensional Component Assignment and Layout Optimization(3D-SCALO) problem tailored to engineering requirements, aiming to optimize satellite heat dissipation while considering constraints on static stability, 3D geometric relationships between components, and special component positions. The 3D-SCALO problem is a challenging bilevel combinatorial optimization task, involving the optimization of discrete component assignment variables in the outer layer and continuous component position variables in the inner layer,with both influencing each other. To address this issue, first, a Mixed Integer Programming(MIP) model is proposed, which reformulates the original bilevel problem into a single-level optimization problem, enabling the exploration of a more comprehensive optimization space while avoiding iterative nested optimization. Then, to model the 3D geometric relationships between components within the MIP framework, a linearized 3D Phi-function method is proposed, which handles non-overlapping and safety distance constraints between cuboid components in an explicit and effective way. Subsequently, the Finite-Rectangle Method(FRM) is proposed to manage 3D geometric constraints for complex-shaped components by approximating them with a finite set of cuboids, extending the applicability of the geometric modeling approach. Finally, the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed MIP model are demonstrated through two numerical examples"and a real-world engineering case, which confirms its suitability for complex-shaped components and real engineering applications.

文摘The nozzle is a critical component responsible for generating most of the net thrust in a scramjet engine.The quality of its design directly affects the performance of the entire propulsion system.However,most turbulence models struggle to make accurate predictions for subsonic and supersonic flows in nozzles.In this study,we explored a novel model,the algebraic stress model k-kL-ARSM+J,to enhance the accuracy of turbulence numerical simulations.This new model was used to conduct numerical simulations of the design and off-design performance of a 3D supersonic asymmetric truncated nozzle designed in our laboratory,with the aim of providing a realistic pattern of changes.The research indicates that,compared to linear eddy viscosity turbulence models such as k-kL and shear stress transport(SST),the k-kL-ARSM+J algebraic stress model shows better accuracy in predicting the performance of supersonic nozzles.Its predictions were identical to the experimental values,enabling precise calculations of the nozzle.The performance trends of the nozzle are as follows:as the inlet Mach number increases,both thrust and pitching moment increase,but the rate of increase slows down.Lift peaks near the design Mach number and then rapidly decreases.With increasing inlet pressure,the nozzle thrust,lift,and pitching moment all show linear growth.As the flight altitude rises,the internal flow field within the nozzle remains relatively consistent due to the same supersonic nozzle inlet flow conditions.However,external to the nozzle,the change in external flow pressure results in the nozzle exit transitioning from over-expanded to under-expanded,leading to a shear layer behind the nozzle that initially converges towards the nozzle center and then diverges.

文摘Systematic bias is a type of model error that can affect the accuracy of data assimilation and forecasting that must be addressed.An online bias correction scheme called the sequential bias correction scheme(SBCS),was developed using the6 h average bias to correct the systematic bias during model integration.The primary purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of the SBCS in the high-resolution China Meteorological Administration Meso-scale(CMA-MESO)numerical weather prediction(NWP)model to reduce the systematic bias and to improve the data assimilation and forecast results through this method.The SBCS is improved upon and applied to the CMA-MESO 3-km model in this study.Four-week sequential data assimilation and forecast experiments,driven by rapid update and cycling(RUC),were conducted for the period from 2–29 May 2022.In terms of the characteristics of systematic bias,both the background and analysis show diurnal bias,and these large biases are affected by complex underlying surfaces(e.g.,oceans,coasts,and mountains).After the application of the SBCS,the results of the data assimilation show that the SBCS can reduce the systematic bias of the background and yield a neutral to slightly positive result for the analysis fields.In addition,the SBCS can reduce forecast errors and improve forecast results,especially for surface variables.The above results indicate that this scheme has good prospects for high-resolution regional NWP models.

文摘Long-duration energy storage has become critical for renewable energy integration.While redox flow batteries,especially vanadium-based systems,are scaling up in capacity,their performance at the stack level remains insufficiently optimized,demanding more profound mechanistic studies and engineering refinements.To address the difficulties in resolving the flow inhomogeneity at the stack scale,this study establishes a multi-physics field coupling model and analyzes the pressure distributions,flow rate differences,active substance concentration,and electrochemical characteristics.The results show that the uneven cell pressure distribution is a key factor affecting the consistency of the system performance,and the increase in the flow rate improves the reactant homogeneity,with both the average concentration and the uniformity factor increasing with the flow rate.In contrast,high current densities lead to an increased imbalance between electrochemical depletion and reactant replenishment,resulting in a significant decrease in reactant concentration in the under-ribs region.In addition,a higher flow rate can expand the high-current-density region where the stack operates efficiently.This study provides a theoretical basis for optimizing the design of the stack components.

文摘Oilfields worldwide are increasingly grappling with challenges such as early water breakthrough and high water production,yet direct,targeted solutions remain elusive.In recent years,chemical flooding techniques designed for tertiary oil recovery have garnered significant attention,with microgel flooding emerging as a particularly prominent area of research.Despite its promise,the complex mechanisms underlying microgel flooding have been rarely investigated numerically.This study aims to address these gaps by characterizing the distribution of microgel concentration and viscosity within different pore structures.To enhance the accuracy of these characterizations,the viscosity of microgels is adjusted to account for the shear effects induced by flow rate and the swelling effects driven by salinity variations.The absolute permeability of the rock and the relative permeability of both oil and microgel are also analyzed to elucidate the mechanisms of microgel flooding.Additionally,a connectivity model is employed to achieve a quantitative representation of fluid flow capacity.The proposed model is validated through conceptual examples and applied to real oilfield blocks,demonstrating its accuracy and practical applicability.

文摘Polymer flooding is an important means of improving oil recovery and is widely used in Daqing,Xinjiang,and Shengli oilfields,China.Different from conventional injection media such as water and gas,viscoelastic polymer solutions exhibit non-Newtonian and nonlinear flow behavior including shear thinning and shear thickening,polymer convection,diffusion,adsorption,retention,inaccessible pore volume,and reduced effective permeability.However,available well test model of polymer flooding wells generally simplifies these characteristics on pressure transient response,which may lead to inaccurate results.This work proposes a novel two-phase numerical well test model to better describe the polymer viscoelasticity and nonlinear flow behavior.Different influence factors that related to near-well blockage during polymer flooding process,including the degree of blockage(inner zone permeability),the extent of blockage(composite radius),and polymer flooding front radius are explored to investigate these impacts on bottom hole pressure responses.Results show that polymer viscoelasticity has a significant impact on the transitional flow segment of type curves,and the effects of near-well formation blockage and polymer concentration distribution on well test curves are very similar.Thus,to accurately interpret the degree of near-well blockage in injection wells,it is essential to first eliminate the influence of polymer viscoelasticity.Finally,a field case is comprehensively analyzed and discussed to illustrate the applicability of the proposed model.

文摘Currently,there are a limited number of dynamic models available for braided composite plates with large overall motions,despite the incorporation of three-dimensional(3D)braided composites into rotating blade components.In this paper,a dynamic model of 3D 4-directional braided composite thin plates considering braiding directions is established.Based on Kirchhoff's plate assumptions,the displacement variables of the plate are expressed.By incorporating the braiding directions into the constitutive equation of the braided composites,the dynamic model of the plate considering braiding directions is obtained.The effects of the speeds,braiding directions,and braided angles on the responses of the plate with fixed-axis rotation and translational motion,respectively,are investigated.This paper presents a dynamic theory for calculating the deformation of 3D braided composite structures undergoing both translational and rotational motions.It also provides a simulation method for investigating the dynamic behavior of non-isotropic material plates in various applications.
文摘Submerged dikes were frequently built in curved estuarine channels to improve navigational conditions. A three-dimensional numerical model of tidal motions was developed to simulate flows through the submerged dike alignment in curved estuarine reach of complex bathymetry on the basis of satisfactory calibrations. Through the analysis of the morphological characteristics of the curved channel of the Huangpu River mouth in the Yangtze River Delta, a submerged dike alignment project was examined. The effect of the navigation channel improvement project and its influence on the flow regimes, the navigational conditions, the flood control and the operating conditions of harbours within the adjacent water area were evaluated, and the technical feasibility of the navigation channel improvement scheme was demonstrated.

文摘The multi-scale modeling combined with the cohesive zone model(CZM)and the molecular dynamics(MD)method were preformed to simulate the crack propagation in NiTi shape memory alloys(SMAs).The metallographic microscope and image processing technology were employed to achieve a quantitative grain size distribution of NiTi alloys so as to provide experimental data for molecular dynamics modeling at the atomic scale.Considering the size effect of molecular dynamics model on material properties,a reasonable modeling size was provided by taking into account three characteristic dimensions from the perspective of macro,meso,and micro scales according to the Buckinghamπtheorem.Then,the corresponding MD simulation on deformation and fracture behavior was investigated to derive a parameterized traction-separation(T-S)law,and then it was embedded into cohesive elements of finite element software.Thus,the crack propagation behavior in NiTi alloys was reproduced by the finite element method(FEM).The experimental results show that the predicted initiation fracture toughness is in good agreement with experimental data.In addition,it is found that the dynamics initiation fracture toughness increases with decreasing grain size and increasing loading velocity.
