A numerical simulation ...Internal solitary waves(ISWs) are a common phenomenon beneath the ocean surface and represent a significant environmental hazard that must be considered for the safe navigation of submersibles. A numerical simulation model for the interaction of solitary waves with submersibles at a large scale has been developed. The Miyata-ChoiCamassa(MCC) equation serves as the basis for generating ISWs. The impacts of the submergence depth, wave amplitude, and advancing velocity on the motion response and load characteristics of the submersible are examined in detail. This study elucidates the governing laws and mechanisms underlying the impact of ISWs on submersibles.The research findings indicate that shorter distances to the undisturbed surface, higher wave amplitudes, and fasteradvancing speeds result in greater effects on submersibles. For a submersible operating in the lower layer, both the alteration in density near the wave interface and the dynamic pressure induced by ISWs can reduce its lift, potentially resulting in a rapid descent. It is imperative to pay considerable attention to the impact of ISWs, as they have the potential to precipitate a loss of control of the submersible.展开更多

文摘To mill fine and well-defined micro-dimpled structures,a machining manner of spiral trajectory tool reciprocating motion,where the tool repeats the process of‘feed milling–retract–cutting feed–feed milling again’along the spiral trajectory,was proposed.From the kinematics analysis,it is found that the machining quality of micro-dimpled structures is highly dependent on the machining trajectory using spiral trajectory tool reciprocating motion.To reveal this causation,simulation modelling and experimental studies were carried out.A simulation model was developed to quantitatively and qualitatively investigate the influence of the trajectory discretization strategies(constant-angle and constant-arc length)and parameters(discrete angle,discrete arc length,and pitch)on surface texture and residual height of micro-dimpled structures.Subsequently,micro-dimpled structures were milled under different trajectory discretization strategies and parameters with spiral trajectory tool reciprocating motion.A comprehensive comparison between the milled results and simulation analysis was made based on geometry accuracy,surface morphology and surface roughness of milled dimples.Meanwhile,the errors and factors affecting the above three aspects were analyzed.The results demonstrate both the feasibility of the established simulation model and the machining capability of this machining way in milling high-quality micro-dimpled structures.Spiral trajectory tool reciprocating motion provides a new machining way for milling micro-dimpled structures and micro-dimpled functional surfaces.And an appropriate machining trajectory can be generated based on the optimized trajectory parameters,thus contributing to the improvement of machining quality and efficiency.

文摘The high stress levels in tall tailings dams can lead to particle crushing.Understanding the compressibility and breakage characteristics of tailings particles will contribute to the advancement to the design and construction processes of high-rise tailings dams,as well as the accurate evaluation of the stability of tailings storage facilities(TSFs).This paper presents the results of a series of detailed one-dimensional oedometer compression tests conducted to investigate the compression behavior and particle breakage of iron ore tailings(IOTs)collected from two typical TSFs,with different initial particle size distributions and a wide range of initial specific volumes,under effective vertical stresses of up to 4.8 MPa.The results show that the compression paths of the IOTs were slowly convergent,and this nontransitional mode of compression behavior experienced a significant amount of particle breakage.The relative breakage(Br)was used to quantify the amount of breakage and the input specific work(W)was adopted to evaluate the factors influencing Br.The initial breakage stress of the IOTs was less than 0.2 MPa.For the finer tailings,Br increased with increasing vertical stresses until it reached a threshold,after which Br tended to remain constant.However,coarser IOTs continued to experience crushing even at 4.8 MPa.The particle breakage in the coarser IOTs is much more significant than it in the finer IOTs overall.It was also observed that the tailings grains within the loose specimens broke more easily than those within the dense specimens.Additionally,three types of particle crushing modes were identified for IOTs under one-dimensional compression,namely,abrasion,chipping,and splitting.

文摘Shallow water infrastructure needs to support increased activity on the shores of Semarang.This study chooses several pontoons because of their good stability,rolling motion,and more expansive space.A coupled simulation method consisting of hydrodynamic and structural calculations has been used to evaluate a catamaran pontoon’s motion and structural integrity.Four different space sizes are set for the pontoon system:5 m,5.5 m,6 m,and 6.5 m.The frequency domain shows that the pontoon space affects the RAO in wave periods ranging from 3 s to 5 s.At wave periods of 3 s,4 s,and 5 s,the pontoon space significantly affects the maximum motion and chain tension parameter values,which are evaluated via time domain simulation.The critical stress of the pontoon is shown at a wave period of 5 s for 5 m and 5.5 m of pontoon space,which shows that the stress can reach 248 MPa.

文摘Internal solitary waves(ISWs) are a common phenomenon beneath the ocean surface and represent a significant environmental hazard that must be considered for the safe navigation of submersibles. A numerical simulation model for the interaction of solitary waves with submersibles at a large scale has been developed. The Miyata-ChoiCamassa(MCC) equation serves as the basis for generating ISWs. The impacts of the submergence depth, wave amplitude, and advancing velocity on the motion response and load characteristics of the submersible are examined in detail. This study elucidates the governing laws and mechanisms underlying the impact of ISWs on submersibles.The research findings indicate that shorter distances to the undisturbed surface, higher wave amplitudes, and fasteradvancing speeds result in greater effects on submersibles. For a submersible operating in the lower layer, both the alteration in density near the wave interface and the dynamic pressure induced by ISWs can reduce its lift, potentially resulting in a rapid descent. It is imperative to pay considerable attention to the impact of ISWs, as they have the potential to precipitate a loss of control of the submersible.

文摘Installing annular wave-energy converters(WECs)on the columns of floating wind platforms in the form of a coaxial-cylinder provides a convenient means of integration.Extant coaxial-cylinder-type wind-wave hybrid systems are mostly based on single-column platforms such as spars(single coaxial-cylinder hybrid system'hereafter).Systems based on multiple-column platforms such as semi-submersible platforms('multiple coaxial-cylinder hybrid systems'hereafter)are rarely seen or studied,despite their superiority in wave-power absorption due to the use of multiple WECs as well as in dynamic stability.This paper proposes a novel WindFloat-annular-WEC hybrid system,based on our study investigating its dynamic and power features,and optimizing the geometry and power take-off of the WECs.Our results show that the dynamic and power features of a multiple coaxial-cylinder hybrid system are different from those of a single coaxial-cylinder hybrid system,so the same optimization parameters cannot be directly applied.Flatter annular WECs absorb slightly more power in a wider wave-period range,but their geometry is confined by limitations in installation and structural strength.The overall effect of an oblique incident wave is greater intensity in the motions of the hybrid system in yaw and the direction perpendicular to propagation,although the difference is small and maybe negligible.

文摘Atomic-level manufacturing,as the "keystone" of future technology,marks the transformative shift from the micro/nano era based on "classical theory" to the atomic era grounded in "quantum theory".It enables the precise control of matter arrangement and composition at the atomic scale,thereby achieving large-scale production of atomically precise and structured products.Electrochemical deposition(ECD),a typical "atom addition" fabrication method for electrochemical atomic and close-to-atomic scale manufacturing(EC-ACSM),enables precise control over material properties at the atomic scale,allowing breakthroughs in revolutionary performance of semiconductors,quantum computing,new materials,nanomedicine,etc.This review explores the fundamentals of EC-ACSM,particularly at the electrode/electrolyte interface,and investigates maskless ECD techniques,highlighting their advantages,limitations,and the role of in situ monitoring and advanced simulations in the process optimization.However,atomic electrochemical deposition faces significant challenges in precise control over atom-ion interactions,electrode-electrolyte interfacial dynamics,and surface defects.In the future,overcoming these obstacles is critical to advancing EC-ACSM and unlocking its full potential in scalability for industrial applications.EC-ACSM can drive the highly customized design of materials and offer strong technological support for the development of future science,ushering in a new atomic era of material innovation and device manufacturing.

文摘Pleurotus ostreatus,a saprotrophic fungus,has been proposed for the remediation of organic contaminants in soils and more recently for modifying the hydraulic and mechanical behaviour of granular soils.The in situ perfor-mance of fungal-based biotechnologies will be controlled by the fungal growth and associated biochemical activity that can be achieved in soil.In this study,the influence of environmental conditions(temperature,degree of saturation),substrate type(lignocellulose and spent coffee grounds)and concentration on the my-celium growth of P.ostreatus in sand are investigated.Furthermore,the evolution of growth/survival indicators(respiration,ergosterol concentration)and enzymatic activity(laccase,manganese peroxidase)are investigated.Temperature was shown to have a strong influence on the growth of P.ostreatus in sand:growth was observed to be delayed at low temperatures(e.g.5℃),whereas growth was prevented at high temperatures(e.g.35℃).No growth was observed at very low degrees of saturation(S,=0%and 1.2%),indicating there is a critical water content required to support P.ostreatus growth.Within the mid-range of water contents tested radially,growth of P.ostreatus was similar.However,growth under saturated soil conditions was restricted to the air-water at-mosphere due to the requirement for oxygen availability.Low substrate concentrations(1%-5%)resulted in high radial growth of P.ostreatus,whereas increasing substrate content further acted to reduce radial growth,but visual observations indicated that fungal biomass density increased.These results are important for under-standing the feasibility of P.ostreatus growth under specific site conditions and for the design of successful treatment strategies.
