Specifically, for the simplified case of constant stratospheric N^(2), the refractive index square of planetary waves has a theoretical tendency to increase first and then decrease with an increased N^(2), whereas the group velocity weakens. Mechanistically, this behavior can be understood as an intensified suppression of vertical isentropic surface displacement caused by meridional heat transport of planetary waves under strong N^(2) conditions. Observational analysis corroborates this finding, demonstrating a reduction in the vertical-propagation velocity of waves with increased N^(2). A linear, quasi- geostrophic, mid-latitude beta-plane model with a constant background westerly wind and a prescribed N^(2) applicable to the stratosphere is used to obtain analytic solutions. In this model, the planetary waves are initiated by steady energy influx from the lower boundary. The analysis indicates that under strong N^(2) conditions, the amplitude of planetary waves can be sufficiently increased by the effective energy convergence due to the slowing vertical energy transfer, resulting in a streamfunction response in this model that contains more energy. For N^(2) with a quasi-linear vertical variation, the results bear a resemblance to the constant case, except that the wave amplitude and oscillating frequency show some vertical variations.展开更多

While partly similar to and inspired by Fragkoulidis and Wirth(2020), our method differs in its ability to cover both planetary-scale and synoptic-scale waves over not only the extratropics, but also the tropics and subtropics. Based on a physically reasonable global distribution of wave periods, our key new finding is a robust prolonging of wave periods over most regions of the tropics and subtropics during both solstice seasons of 1979–2023, except for the tropical Atlantic, which experiences a shortened wave period during June–July–August of 1979–2022. Both the prolonging and shortening of wave periods are mainly associated with the changes in planetary-scale waves. Regionally varying trends of the zonal phase speed(Cpx) of synoptic waves are consistent in sign with, but smaller in magnitude than, the trends of local zonal wind, confirming the conclusion of Wu and Lu(2023)on the opposite effects of zonal wind and the meridional gradient of potential vorticity on Cpx. Meanwhile, the Cpx trends of planetary-scale waves are relatively weak, and do not exhibit a robust relation with the trend of zonal wind. These new results are helpful toward better understanding the changes in atmospheric waves and extreme events under global warming.展开更多

The First Scientific Assessment Report on Ocean and Climate Change of China and The Fourth Assessment Report on Climate Change of China were published in 2020 and 2022, respectively.However, no concrete results on the long-term trends in wave changes in China have been obtained. In this study, long-term trends in extreme wave elements over the past 55 years were investigated using wave data from five in situ observation sites(i.e., Lao Hu Tan, Cheng Shan Tou,Ri Zhao, Nan Ji, Wei Zhou) along the coast of China. The five stations showed different trends in wave height. Results show a general downward trend in wave heights at the LHT and CST stations, reaching-0.78 and-1.44 cm/a, respectively, in summer at middle and high latitudes. NJI stations at middle-to-low latitudes are influenced by the winter monsoon and summer tropical cyclones, showing a substantial increase in extreme wave heights(0.7 cm/a in winter and 2.68 cm/a in summer). The cumulative duration of H_(1/10) ≥ 3 m at NJI and RZH has grown since 1990.展开更多

The numerical wave is generated from the inflow boundary, where the surface elevation and/or velocity are specified by use of the analytical solution or the laboratory data. The Sommerfeld/Orlanski radiation condition in conjunction with an artificial damping zone is applied to reduce wave reflection from the outflow boundary. The whole numerical solution procedures are split into three steps, i.e., advection, diffusion and propagation, and a new method, the Lagrange-Euler Method, instead of the MAC or VOF method, is introduced to solve the free surface elevation at the new time step. Several typical wave cases, including solitary waves, regular waves and irregular waves, are simulated in the wave tank. The robustness and accuracy of the NWT are verified by the good agreement between the numerical results and the linear or nonlinear analytical solutions. This research will be further developed by study of wave-wave, wave-current, wave-structure or wave-jet interaction in the future.展开更多

The hydrodynamic efficiency of the breakwater is presented in terms of the wave transmission （kt）, reflection （kr） and energy dissipation （ka） coefficients. Different wave and structural parameters affecting the breakwater efficiency are tested. It is found that, the transmission coefficient （kt） decreases with the increase of the relative water depth （h/L）, the wave steepness （Hi^L）, the relative breakwater widths （B/L, B/h）, the relative breakwater height （D/h）, and the breakwater porosity （n）. The reflection coefficient （kr） takes the opposite trend of kt when D/h=l.25 and it decreases with the increasing h/L, HJL and B/L when D/h〈1.0. The dissipation coefficient （kd） increases with the increasing h/L, HilL and B/L when D/h〈_l.O and it decreases when D/h=l.25. In which, it is possible to achieve values ofkt smaller than 0.3, k~ larger than 0.5, and kd larger than 0.6 when D/h=1.25, B/h=0.6, h/L〉0.22, B/L〉O. 13, and H/L 〉0.04. Empirical equations are developed for the estimation of the transmission and reflection coefficients. The results of these equations are compared with other experimental and theoretical results and a reasonable agreement is obtained.展开更多

文摘In this paper,a terahertz slotted waveguide array antenna is designed based on photonic crystal,which can realize efficient radiation of terahertz waves.The electromagnetic wave is fed from the rectangular waveguide at the bottom of the antenna,coupled to photonic crystal waveguide through photonic crystal cavity,and radiated outward through slots at the top layer of antenna.The simulation results show that the antenna achieves a peak gain of 13.45 dBi at 360 GHz,a half-power beam width of 10.9°,and a side lobe level of−13.9 dB.The antenna based on photonic crystal has the advantages of low profile,low loss,and high radiation efficiency,which can be applied to terahertz wireless communication systems.

文摘The selection of an appropriate basic detonation wave flow field is crucial for improving the performance and geometric design of standing detonation vehicles.This paper employs a detailed chemical reaction model and solves the unsteady axisymmetric Euler equation to study the characteristics of the Axisymmetric Inward Turning Curved Detonation Wave(AIT-CDW)flow field and the parameters affecting the stability of the wave system structure of AIT-CDW flow field.The numerical results demonstrate a radial compression effect in the AIT-CDW flow field.This effect causes the detonation wave to have a shorter initiation length than oblique detonation wave flow field and the detonation wave angle to gradually increase with the flow direction postdetonation.The AIT-CDW flow field is confined space,making it prone to normal detonation waves when the detonation wave reflects from the wall.This phenomenon is detrimental to the stability of the wave system structure in the flow field.It has been observed that increasing the center body radius and decreasing the fuel equivalent ratio can effectively reduce the height of the normal detonation wave or even eliminate it.Additionally,a well-designed generatrix shape of the center body can enhance airflow,reduce choked flow,and promote the stability of the wave structure in the flow field.

文摘systematic verification and validation(V&V)of our previously proposed momentum source wave generation method is performed.Some settings of previous numerical wave tanks(NWTs)of regular and irregular waves have been optimized.The H2-5 V&V method involving five mesh sizes with mesh refinement ratio being 1.225 is used to verify the NWT of regular waves,in which the wave height and mass conservation are mainly considered based on a Lv3(H s=0.75 m)and a Lv6(H s=5 m)regular wave.Additionally,eight different sea states are chosen to validate the wave height,mass conservation and wave frequency of regular waves.Regarding the NWT of irregular waves,five different sea states with significant wave heights ranging from 0.09 m to 12.5 m are selected to validate the statistical characteristics of irregular waves,including the profile of the wave spectrum,peak frequency and significant wave height.Results show that the verification errors for Lv3 and Lv6 regular wave on the most refined grid are−0.018 and−0.35 for wave height,respectively,and−0.14 and for−0.17 mass conservation,respectively.The uncertainty estimation analysis shows that the numerical error could be partially balanced out by the modelling error to achieve a smaller validation error by adjusting the mesh size elaborately.And the validation errors of the wave height,mass conservation and dominant frequency of regular waves under different sea states are no more than 7%,8% and 2%,respectively.For a Lv3(H_(s)=0.75 m)and a Lv6(H_(s)=5 m)regular wave,simulations are validated on the wave height in wave development section for safety factors FS≈1 and FS≈0.5-1,respectively.Regarding irregular waves,the validation errors of the significant wave height and peak frequency are both lower than 2%.

文摘Flume experiments play a pivotal role in studying wave propagation,with wave elements typically assumed to remain constant in the perpendicular direction.However,evident cross wave phenomena were observed within flumes under certain conditions.This paper presents new analytical solutions for both primary and cross waves on double shoals in a flume via linear shallow-water equations,which may be used to idealize dynamic experimental configurations of coral reefs.The primary waves on double shoals are described by the associated Legendre functions,whereas the ultimate solutions are derived by considering the incident and reflected waves in front of a bathymetry and the transmitted waves positioned behind it.The effects of the angular frequency and topographic parameters on the primary waves are subsequently analyzed.Cross waves on double shoals constitute a type of topographically trapped wave whose solutions are formulated by combining the first and second types of the associated Legendre functions.The angular frequency is not only determined by the wavenumber but also influenced by the topographic parameters.Numerical experiments are conducted to investigate the generation mechanism of cross waves.The consistency between the numerical results and analytical solutions confirms the validity of the new analytical framework of cross waves on double shoals.

文摘By applying the convolution-based Hilbert transform in the zonal direction on six-hourly streamfunction fields at200 h Pa, we present the climatology and trends of the local wave period, and zonal and meridional phase speeds, of Rossby waves over the globe during the solstice seasons of 1979–2023. While partly similar to and inspired by Fragkoulidis and Wirth(2020), our method differs in its ability to cover both planetary-scale and synoptic-scale waves over not only the extratropics, but also the tropics and subtropics. Based on a physically reasonable global distribution of wave periods, our key new finding is a robust prolonging of wave periods over most regions of the tropics and subtropics during both solstice seasons of 1979–2023, except for the tropical Atlantic, which experiences a shortened wave period during June–July–August of 1979–2022. Both the prolonging and shortening of wave periods are mainly associated with the changes in planetary-scale waves. Regionally varying trends of the zonal phase speed(Cpx) of synoptic waves are consistent in sign with, but smaller in magnitude than, the trends of local zonal wind, confirming the conclusion of Wu and Lu(2023)on the opposite effects of zonal wind and the meridional gradient of potential vorticity on Cpx. Meanwhile, the Cpx trends of planetary-scale waves are relatively weak, and do not exhibit a robust relation with the trend of zonal wind. These new results are helpful toward better understanding the changes in atmospheric waves and extreme events under global warming.

文摘Extreme waves may considerably impact crucial coastal and marine engineering structures. The First Scientific Assessment Report on Ocean and Climate Change of China and The Fourth Assessment Report on Climate Change of China were published in 2020 and 2022, respectively.However, no concrete results on the long-term trends in wave changes in China have been obtained. In this study, long-term trends in extreme wave elements over the past 55 years were investigated using wave data from five in situ observation sites(i.e., Lao Hu Tan, Cheng Shan Tou,Ri Zhao, Nan Ji, Wei Zhou) along the coast of China. The five stations showed different trends in wave height. Results show a general downward trend in wave heights at the LHT and CST stations, reaching-0.78 and-1.44 cm/a, respectively, in summer at middle and high latitudes. NJI stations at middle-to-low latitudes are influenced by the winter monsoon and summer tropical cyclones, showing a substantial increase in extreme wave heights(0.7 cm/a in winter and 2.68 cm/a in summer). The cumulative duration of H_(1/10) ≥ 3 m at NJI and RZH has grown since 1990.

文摘Scalar fields should have no spin angular momentum according to conventional textbook understandings inclassical field theory.Yet,recent studies demonstrate the undoubted existence of wave spin endowed by acousticand elastic longitudinal waves,which are of irrotational curl-free nature without vorticity and can be describedby scalar fields.Moreover,the conventional theory cannot even answer the question of whether wave spin existsin dissipative fields,given the ubiquitous dissipation in reality.Here,to resolve the seeming paradox and answerthe challenging question,we uncover the origin of wave spin in scalar fields beyond traditional formalism byclarifying that the presence of higher-order derivatives in scalar field Lagrangians can give rise to non-vanishingwave spin.For“spinless”scalar fields of only first-order derivatives,we can make the hidden wave spin emergeby revealing a latent field that leads to the original field through a time derivative,thus giving higher-order termsin Lagrangian.Based on the standard Noether theorem approach,we exemplify the wave spin for unconventionaldrifted acoustic fields,and even for dissipative media,in scalar fields with higher-order derivative Lagrangian.The results would prompt people to build more comprehensive and fundamental understandings of structuralwave spin in classical fields.
文摘A fully nonlinear numerical wave tank based on the solution of the σ-transformed Navier-Stokes equation is developed in this study. The numerical wave is generated from the inflow boundary, where the surface elevation and/or velocity are specified by use of the analytical solution or the laboratory data. The Sommerfeld/Orlanski radiation condition in conjunction with an artificial damping zone is applied to reduce wave reflection from the outflow boundary. The whole numerical solution procedures are split into three steps, i.e., advection, diffusion and propagation, and a new method, the Lagrange-Euler Method, instead of the MAC or VOF method, is introduced to solve the free surface elevation at the new time step. Several typical wave cases, including solitary waves, regular waves and irregular waves, are simulated in the wave tank. The robustness and accuracy of the NWT are verified by the good agreement between the numerical results and the linear or nonlinear analytical solutions. This research will be further developed by study of wave-wave, wave-current, wave-structure or wave-jet interaction in the future.
文摘The hydrodynamic efficiency of the vertical porous structures is investigated under regular waves by use of physical models. The hydrodynamic efficiency of the breakwater is presented in terms of the wave transmission （kt）, reflection （kr） and energy dissipation （ka） coefficients. Different wave and structural parameters affecting the breakwater efficiency are tested. It is found that, the transmission coefficient （kt） decreases with the increase of the relative water depth （h/L）, the wave steepness （Hi^L）, the relative breakwater widths （B/L, B/h）, the relative breakwater height （D/h）, and the breakwater porosity （n）. The reflection coefficient （kr） takes the opposite trend of kt when D/h=l.25 and it decreases with the increasing h/L, HJL and B/L when D/h〈1.0. The dissipation coefficient （kd） increases with the increasing h/L, HilL and B/L when D/h〈_l.O and it decreases when D/h=l.25. In which, it is possible to achieve values ofkt smaller than 0.3, k~ larger than 0.5, and kd larger than 0.6 when D/h=1.25, B/h=0.6, h/L〉0.22, B/L〉O. 13, and H/L 〉0.04. Empirical equations are developed for the estimation of the transmission and reflection coefficients. The results of these equations are compared with other experimental and theoretical results and a reasonable agreement is obtained.

文摘Traffic engineering such as tunnels in various altitudinal gradient zone are at risk of accidental explosion,which can damage personnel and equipment.Accurate prediction of the distribution pattern of explosive loads and shock wave propagation process in semi-enclosed structures at various altitude environment is key research focus in the fields of explosion shock and fluid dynamics.The effect of altitude on the propagation of shock waves in tunnels was investigated by conducting explosion test and numerical simulation.Based on the experimental and numerical simulation results,a prediction model for the attenuation of the peak overpressure of tunnel shock waves at different altitudes was established.The results showed that the peak overpressure decreased at the same measurement points in the tunnel entrance under the high altitude condition.In contrast,an increase in altitude accelerated the propagation speed of the shock wave in the tunnel.The average error between the peak shock wave overpressure obtained using the overpressure prediction formula and the measured test data was less than15%,the average error between the propagation velocity of shock waves predicted values and the test data is less than 10%.The method can effectively predict the overpressure attenuation of blast wave in tunnel at various altitudes.

文摘This study involved a comprehensive investigation aimed at achieving efficient multi-millijoule THz wave generation by exploiting the unique properties of cylindrical GaAs waveguides as effective mediators of the conversion of laser energy into THz waves.Through meticulous investigation,valuable insights into optimizing THz generation processes for practical applications were unearthed.By investigating Hertz potentials,an eigen-value equation for the solutions of the guided modes(i.e.,eigenvalues)was found.The effects of various param-eters,including the effective mode index and the laser pulse power,on the electric field components of THz radia-tion,including the fundamental TE(transverse electric)and TM(transverse magnetic)modes,were evaluated.By analyzing these factors,this research elucidated the nuanced mechanisms governing THz wave generation within cylindrical GaAs waveguides,paving the way for refined methodologies and enhanced efficiency.The sig-nificance of cylindrical GaAs waveguides extends beyond their roles as mere facilitators of THz generation;their design and fabrication hold the key to unlocking the potential for compact and portable THz systems.This trans-formative capability not only amplifies the efficiency of THz generation but also broadens the horizons of practical applications.
