The analysis shows that seven weak small mesoscale vortexes of tens of kilometers, correspondent to surface low trough or mesoscale centers, in the planetary boundary layer （PBL） in the mei-yu front were heavily responsible for the heavy rainfall. Sometimes, several weak small-scale vortexes in the PBL could form a vortex group, some of which would weaken locally, and some would develop to be a meso-α-scale low vortex through combination. The initial dynamical triggering mechanism was related to two strong currents： one was the northeast flow in the PBL at the rear of the mei-yu front, the vortexes occurred exactly at the side of the northeast flow; and the other was the strong southwest low-level jet （LLJ） in front of the Mei-yu front, which moved to the upper of the vortexes. Consequently, there were notable horizontal and vertical wind shears to form positive vorticity in the center of the southwest LLJ. The development of mesoscale convergence in the PBL and divergence above, as well as the vertical positive vorticity column, were related to the small wind column above the nose-shaped velocity contours of the northeast flow embedding southwestward in the PBL, which intensified the horizontal wind shear and the positive vorticity column above the vortexes, baroclinicity and instability.展开更多

It point out that the merging and strengthening of GHV is one of the basic reasons for triggering the Xingtai earthquake. It is worthy to pay attention that the earthquake precursors ( for example ground temperature …) does not clear with the shorter distance from the epicenter. It is an urgent task for earthquake prediction to strengthen the supervision of some spatial temporal continuous elements (such as G.T, geomagnetism, ground tilt field, gravity, etc.) and carry out comprehensive analysis.展开更多

文摘Orientations of laser induced periodic surface structures(LIPSS)are usually considered to be governed by the laser polarization state.In this work,we unveil that fluid dynamics induced by femtosecond(fs)laser ablation in liquid(fs-LAL)can easily break this polarization restriction to produce irregular circular-LIPSS(CLIPPS)and crisscross-LIPSS(CCLIPSS).Fs laser ablation of silicon in water shows formation of diverse LIPSS depending on ablation conditions.At a high power of 700 mW(repetition rate of 100 kHz,pulse duration of 457 fs and wavelength of 1045 nm),single/twin CLIPSS are produced at the bottom of macropores of several microns in diameter due to the formation of strong liquid vortexes and occurrence of the vortex shedding effect.Theoretical simulations validate our speculation about the formation of liquid vortex with an ultrahigh static pressure,which can induce the microstructure trenches and cracks at the sidewalls for fs-LAL of Si and tungsten(W)in water,respectively.At a low power of 50 mW,weak liquid vortexes are produced,which only give birth to curved LIPSS in the valleys of grooves.Consequently,it is deduced that liquid vortex plays a crucial role in the formation of macropores.Mountain-like microstructures induce complex fluid dynamics which can cause the formation of CCLIPSS on them.It is believed that liquid vortexes and fluid dynamics presented in this work open up new possibilities to diversify the morphologies of LIPSS formed by fs-LAL.

文摘The northeastern China cold vortex(NCCV)plays an important role in regional rainstorms over East Asia.Using the National Centers for Environmental Prediction Final reanalysis dataset and the Global Precipitation Measurement product,an objective algorithm for identifying heavy-precipitation NCCV(HPCV)events was designed,and the climatological features of 164 HPCV events from 2001 to 2019 were investigated.The number of HPCV events showed an upward linear trend,with the highest frequency of occurrence in summer.The most active region of HPCV samples was the Northeast China Plain between 40°–55°N.Most HPCV events lasted 3–5 days and had radii ranging from 250 to 1000 km.The duration of HPCV events with larger sizes was longer.About half of the HPCV events moved into(moved out of)the definition region(35°–60°N,115°–145°E),and half initiated(dissipated)within the region.The initial position was close to the western boundary of the definition region,and the final position was mainly near the eastern boundary.The locations associated with the precipitation were mostly concentrated within 2000 km southeast of the HPCV systems,and they were farther from the center in the cold season than in the warm season.

文摘Using the NCEP 1°×1°reanalysis data,several obvious differences of the structural characteristics of developed versus undeveloped mid-level vortexes are studied.First,the central vorticity of the developed mid-level vortex increases towards higher levels while the undeveloped one decreases.The low-level convergence structure maintains well in the developed mid-level vortex whereas the undeveloped one does badly.Second,on the one hand,according to the symmetric analysis,the horizontal wind field and wind vertical section of the developed mid-level vortex are well symmetric while those of the undeveloped one are less symmetric.Meanwhile,weak wind vertical shear help the developed mid-level vortex to establish a warm core in upper-and mid-levels of the troposphere.On the other hand,according to the balance analysis,better balance between wind and pressure is shown in the mid-and lower-levels of the troposphere of the developed mid-level vortex than in those of the undeveloped vortex.Third,positive anomaly of potential vorticity is enhanced and developed in the vertical direction of the developed vortex.However,the undeveloped vortex weakens with a weak positive anomaly.
文摘In the three-vortex model theory of turbulence[1,2] and double and the triple velocity correlation functions of small vortexes were employed. In this paper, the double and the triple velocity correlation functions of small vortexes are further discussed, and the expressions of some coefficients in the expansions in terms of relative displacement of two points are given. Finally, by using these coefficients, the decay of grid-produced trubulence is calculated. The result of calculations gives good agreement with the experimental data of G.K.

文摘The effect of nanosecond pulsed dielectric barrier discharge(NS-DBD) plasma flow separation control is closely related to the actuation frequency,because it involves the interaction between plasma-induced vortexes and separated flow.In order to study the mechanism of NS-DBD plasma flow separation control over a swept wing,especially the influence of the actuation frequency,at first,experimental studies of the actuation frequencies at 100 Hz are conducted to validate the numerical simulation method.Then,numerical studies of different actuation frequencies which are 50 Hz,100 Hz,160 Hz,200 Hz,500 Hz,and 1000 Hz,respectively are conducted.The interaction between the plasma-induced vortexes and the separated flow is analyzed.Results show that there is a range of the actuation frequency which includes the frequency(160 Hz) calculated by the average aerodynamic chord length to make the control effect good,but when the actuation frequencies are too low(50 Hz) or too high(1000 Hz),the control effect will get worse.The former is because plasmainduced vortexes disappear in a period within an actuation cycle;the latter is because plasma-induced vortexes cannot develop completely,resulting in a weak vortex intensity.
文摘The occurrence process of the Xingtai earthquake (1996) is discussed on the basis of evolution of small scale ground temperature fields on the background of large ground temperature field. It point out that the merging and strengthening of GHV is one of the basic reasons for triggering the Xingtai earthquake. It is worthy to pay attention that the earthquake precursors ( for example ground temperature …) does not clear with the shorter distance from the epicenter. It is an urgent task for earthquake prediction to strengthen the supervision of some spatial temporal continuous elements (such as G.T, geomagnetism, ground tilt field, gravity, etc.) and carry out comprehensive analysis.

文摘In this study,an objective algorithm to identify meso-γ-scale vortexes(MVs)using radial velocity observations from an S-band radar is developed.Then,for the 237 Extreme Hourly Precipitation(EXHP;>75 mm)records at the surface weather stations in the Pearl River Delta(PRD)during five warm seasons,the properties and environmental conditions of the EXHP-associated MVs are analyzed.Further,the spatiotemporal distributions of the MV,instantaneous rain rate,and EXHP are illustrated for three events with the most abundant EXHP records.The major findings are as follows.About 42%EXHP records are accompanied by 57 MVs,including 84%of weak shear intensity,12%of weak mesocyclone intensity,and 4%of moderate mesocyclone intensity,with the rotational speeds between 5 and12 m s^(-1),12 and 16 m s^(-1),and 16 and 21 m s^(-1),respectively.The duration and core depth of the MVs are highly correlated(coefficient of 0.67)with averages of 39 min and 699 m,respectively.The hourly rainfall accumulation of an EXHP tends to increase with the influencing duration of MVs on the EXHP,while a majority of MVs might result from the EXHP-associated forcing such as condensational latent heating.Relative to the EXHP events with MVs in the United States,those in the PRD feature smaller environmental 0-3-km storm relative helicity(SRH)and 0-1-km vertical wind shear(VWS).However,compared to the non-rotational EXHP in the PRD,the rotational EXHP events are associated with significantly higher 0-1-km VWS,0-3-km SRH,humidity,and larger convective available potential energy.In the three selected events,rainstorms exhibit an irregular shape,a quasi-circular shape,and a quasi-banded shape of strong echo,respectively.The MVs are often located inside the strong radar reflectivity region,and some are next to its bow-shaped portion.Those longer-lived MVs with stronger rotation are collocated with the extreme 6-min rainfall accumulation(≥10 mm)in space and time,suggesting presence of positive feedback between low-level rotation and short-term rain rate.In the event influenced by a tropical storm,four MVs appear at almost the same location in succession and move along roughly the same path,forming an MV back-building process.

文摘This paper examines a model that combines vortex generators and leading-edge tubercles for controlling the laminar separation bubble(LSB)over an airfoil at low Reynolds numbers(Re).This new concept of passive flow control technique utilizing a tubercle and vortex generator(VG)close to the leading edge was analyzed numerically for a NACA0015 airfoil.In this study,the Shear Stress Transport(SST)turbulence model was employed in the numerical modelling.Numerical modelling was completed using the ANSYS-Fluent 18.2 solver.Analyses were conducted to investigate the flow pattern and understand the underlying LSB control phenomena that enabled the new passive flow control method to provide this significant performance benefit.The findings indicated that the new concept of passive flow control technique suppressed the formation of an LSB at the suction surface of the NACA0015 airfoil,resulting in a higher lift coefficient and improved aerodynamic performance.Improvements in LSB dynamics and aerodynamic performance through the passive flow control method lead to increased energy output and enhanced stability.

文摘This study presents a comprehensive analysis of 132 tornadic events in northeastern China from 2004 to 2023,utilizing radar and ERA5 reanalysis data to investigate the climatology,environmental drivers,and synoptic linkages with Northeast China cold vortices(NCCVs)of tornadic storms under different convective modes.Results reveal that discrete storms account for 70%of events,with clustered cells(CC)being the most frequent mode,while significant tornadoes(EF2+)are primarily associated with isolated cells(IC)and broken lines(BL).The storm mode distribution in northeastern China resembles that of the central United States but with a higher proportion of CC and lower IC.In contrast,southern China exhibits a higher frequency of quasi-linear(QL)modes(>50%),similar to European patterns.Although no single parameter clearly differentiates between all tornado modes,distinct morphological characteristics emerge through specific parameter combinations:NL modes are characterized by high 0-1 km storm-relative helicity(SRH1)and humidity but low 0-6 km shear(SR6),whereas IC modes display contrasting features with low SRH1 and high CAPE.Notably,83%of tornadoes are associated with NCCVs,preferentially forming in southeastern/southwestern quadrants.Strong tornadoes favor southeastern quadrants,while NCCV intensity correlates with tornadic distance from vortex centers.Three characteristic synoptic configurations emerge:(T1)strong deep vortices with vertically aligned cold troughs,generating southeast-dominant tornado clusters characterized by a high proportion of BL and QL modes;(T2)weaker vortices featuring sub-synoptic troughs,with southern-distributed events dominated by a predominance of the CC mode;(T3)transverse-trough systems exhibiting CAPE-SRH decoupling and reduced tornadic activity.This study enhances our understanding of tornadoes in northeastern China,informing future research on formation mechanisms,prediction methods,and disaster prevention strategies.

文摘The development of a vertically aligned vortex is crucial for tropical cyclone(TC)intensification,especially in the presence of environmental vertical wind shear(VWS).In comparison with previous studies,this study provides more rigorous evidence supporting the role of balanced dynamics in the evolution of vortex tilt by using the potential vorticity(PV)inversion method.Based on two idealized simulations of TCs subjected to nearly constant easterly shear of approximately 6 m s^(–1) and 10 m s^(–1),we demonstrate that the wavenumber-1 circulations directly responsible for vortex tilt evolution are predominantly captured by the balanced component,characterized by vortex Rossby waves.Furthermore,the adiabatic lifting resulting from the balanced response of the shear-tilted vortex contributes to enhanced convection in the TC inner core.As an air parcel undergoes cyclonic rotation,it ascends on the right side of the tilt vector,which increases relative humidity,leads to saturation,and drives the development of convective asymmetries,with maximum upward motion aligned with the tilt direction.This study suggests that the response of TC vortices to the environmental VWS involves complex interactions between vortex tilt,asymmetries in TC structure,and convection,all of which can largely be understood within the framework of balanced dynamics.

文摘Typhoon Bebinca in 2024 experienced a nearshore outbreak(a rapid intensification(RI)near the coast),making accurate forecasting of unpredictable tracks and intensities highly challenging.The AI model is superior to the numerical model for typhoon track prediction but performs worse for intensity forecasting.Vortex initialization is an effective approach to further improve numerical prediction via cycle assimilation,accounting for multiple relocating TC centers and adjusting the typhoon initial structure.In addition,by integrating numerical runs with an AI weather model through real-time dynamic weight correction of the forecast,the predictive skill is further improved.For example,it can reduce the deviation of 72-h track forecasting by 25%compared with the numerical model and decrease the intensity deviation by 2%and 56%relative to the numerical run and AI forecasts,respectively.On the basis of the best-performing forecasting,the inner-core convective burst(CB)characteristics are illuminated.The attributions of the nearshore outbreak and RI of Typhoon Bebinca are examined.From the viewpoint of bottom-up convection growth,the CB is associated with the energy supply from the high-boundarylayer CAPE,the following upward-developing secondary circulation,and accompanying latent heat release of hydrometeors.The contracted radius of maximum winds(RMW)and increased inertial stability within the inner core region effectively prevent the escape of the high-energy atmosphere and favor rapid intensification and maintenance of the offshore burst of a typhoon.The intensifying secondary circulation further promotes the primary circulation of the TC and RI processes through the gradient wind balance.

文摘With their intricate vectorial structures in space,optical skyrmions have significantly expanded the landscape of topological optics and light-matter interactions.We theoretically investigate high harmonic generation in crystals driven by optical skyrmions.We find that although the skyrmion number is not conserved,the resulting high-order harmonics can exhibit a distinctive multi-vortex structure,whose features are shaped by both the topology of the optical skyrmions and the rotational symmetry of the crystal.The position of the vortex centers can be effectively tuned by employing different types of optical skyrmions.To elucidate the underlying physics,we develop a multi-absorption channel model based on the conservation laws of spin and orbital angular momentum.Our work explores the role of optical topology in extreme nonlinear light-matter interactions,offering new opportunities for the formation and manipulation of optical vortices and novel structured light fields in the visible and ultraviolet regimes.
文摘This paper examines the connection between photonic band-gap formation in two types of two-dimensional photonic crystals and the emergence of reverse electromagnetic energy flows generated by linearly polarized plane waves incident on a photonic-crystal slab.We show that these reverse energy flows,observed in both transmitted and reflected fields,originate from vortex structures in the Poynting vector.The resulting energy-flow patterns exhibit striking analogies to vortex formation in fluid motion past obstacles.The geometry and dynamics of the Poynting-vector vortices determine whether the incident electromagnetic energy is impeded,leading to the formation of photonic band gaps,or instead guided through the structure,enabling transmission.

文摘The Northeast China Cold Vortex(NCCV)is a common cut-off low-pressure system in Northeast China,frequently causing localized heavy rainfall,strong winds,and thunderstorms during the early summer.In this study,the clear-sky radiance of 48 longwave channels from the FY-4B Geostationary Interferometric Infrared Sounder(GIIRS)is assimilated into the China Meteorological Administration mesoscale model(CMA-MESO)to evaluate its impact on NCCV development and its effects on rainfall forecasting.The results show that after assimilating the GIIRS radiance data,the warm center at 200 hPa and the cold center at 850 hPa of the NCCV are strengthened,and the dry intrusion at 850 hPa becomes more pronounced.This leads to a stronger NCCV intensity in the following 24 hours and brings the precipitation intensity and area closer to the observation,resulting in significant improvements compared to the experiments that do not assimilate GIIRS radiance data.Furthermore,it is found that the enhancement of the precipitation forecast is associated with the strengthening of cold air in the middle and lower troposphere,which intensifies the uplift of the warm,moist airflow.These results highlight the potential value of GIIRS data assimilation in enhancing early warnings and forecasts of extreme weather events influenced by the NCCV.

文摘We study Onsager vortex clustered states in a shell-shaped superfluid containing a large number of quantum vortices.In the incompressible limit and at low temperatures,the relevant problem can be boiled down to the statistical mechanics of neutral point vortices confined on a sphere.We analyze rotation-free vortex-clustered states within the mean-field theory in the microcanonical ensemble.We find that the sandwich state,which involves the separating of vortices with opposite circulation and the clustering of vortices with the same circulation around the poles and the equator,is the maximum entropy vortex distribution,subject to a zero angular momentum constraint.The dipole moment vanishes for the sandwich state and the quadrupole tensor serves as an order parameter to characterize the vortex cluster structure.For a given finite angular momentum,the equilibrium vortex distribution forms a dipole structure,i.e.,vortices with opposite sign are separated and accumulate around the south and north poles,respectively.The conditions for the onset of clustering and the exponents associated with the quadrupole moment and the dipole moment as functions of energy are obtained within the mean field theory.At large energies,we obtain asymptotically exact vortex density distributions using the stereographic projection method,yielding the parameter bounds for the vortex clustered states.The analytical predictions are in excellent agreement with microcanonical Monte Carlo simulations.

文摘The intrinsic interaction mechanism of flutter between the flow and structure of a rectangular plate remains a mystery from the viewpoint of unsteady flow.The present study provides a novel insight into this interaction mechanism based on an adequate understanding of the formation and evolution of the flapping leading-edge vortex(LEV).A series of wind tunnel tests was conducted to investigate the nonlinear flutter instability of an 8∶1 rectangular plate.The complete flow fields around the model throughout the flutter process were obtained by a particle image velocimetry(PIV)technique using two synchronous cameras with an interpolation and resampling method.To acquire the flow structures corresponding to the characteristic frequency of flutter,the spectral proper orthogonal decomposition(SPOD)method was extended to a noninertial frame to reconstruct the low-rank flow field during flutter and extract the characteristic flow pattern coupled with oscillations.It was found that when the 8∶1 rectangular plate undergoes flutter,the LEVs exhibit a periodic flapping phenomenon induced by the structure oscillations.A two-dimensional correlation analysis of the flapping LEVs was conducted for different inflow velocities.The results demonstrate that there is a substantial phase lead phenomenon in the LEV evolution downstream for a higher inflow velocity.This phenomenon may be related to a phase offset of aerodynamic forces,and finally,it gives rise to flutter.
