STRUCTURE FEATURES AND COMPOSITE ANALYSIS OF CONVECTIVE CELLS IN A WARM SECTOR HEAVY RAINFALL EVENT OVER SOUTHERN CHINA

This paper uses the ARW-WRF model to carry out a numerical simulation of a warm-sector heavy rainfall event over southern China on the 22-23 May, 2014. A composite analysis method was used to analyze the evolution process and structural features of the convective cells on a convection line during this rainfall event. This analysis identified three stages:(1) Stage of activation: the equivalent potential temperature surfaces as lower layers start to bulge and form warm cells and weak vertical convective cloud towers which are subject to the impact of low-level warm moist updrafts in the rainfall sector;(2) Stage of development: the warm cells continue to bulge and form warm air columns and the convective cloud towers develop upwards becoming stronger as they rise;(3) Stage of maturity: the warm air columns start to connect with the stable layer in the upper air; the convective cloud tower will bend and tilt westward with each increasing in height, and the convection cell is characterized by a "crescent-shaped echo" above the 700 h Pa plane. During this stage the internal temperature of the cell is higher than the ambient temperature and the dynamic structural field is manifested as intensive vertical upward movement. The large-value centers of the northerly and westerly winds in the middle layer correspond to the warm moist center in the cells and the relatively cold center south of the warm air column. Further analysis shows that the formation of the "crescent-shaped" convective cell is associated with horizontal vorticity. Horizontal vorticity in the center and west of the warm cell experiences stronger cyclonic and anticyclonic shear transformation over time; this not only causes the original suborbicular cell echo shape to develop into a crescent-like shape, but also makes a convection line consisting of cells that develop to the northwest.

Multilingual Knowledge Graph Completion Based on Structure Features of the Dual-Branch

With the development of information fusion,knowledge graph completion tasks have received a lot of attention.some studies investigate the broader underlying problems of linguistics,while embedding learning has a narrow focus.This poses significant challenges due to the heterogeneity of coarse-graining patterns.Then,to settle the whole matter,a framework for completion is designed,named Triple Encoder-Scoring Module(TEsm).The model employs an alternating two-branch structure that fuses local features into the interaction pattern of the triplet itself by perfectly combining distance and structure models.Moreover,it is mapped to a uniform shared space.Upon completion,an ensemble inference method is proposed to query multiple predictions from different graphs using a weight classifier.Experiments show that the experimental dataset used for the completion task is DBpedia,which contains five different linguistic subsets..Our extensive experimental results demonstrate that TEsm can efficiently and smoothly solve the optimal completion task,validating the performance of the proposed model.

Advanced 3D ordered electrodes for PEMFC applications: From structural features and fabrication methods to the controllable design of catalyst layers

The catalyst layers(CLs) electrode is the key component of the membrane electrode assembly(MEA) in proton exchange membrane fuel cells(PEMFCs). Conventional electrodes for PEMFCs are composed of carbon-supported, ionomer, and Pt nanoparticles, all immersed together and sprayed with a micron-level thickness of CLs. They have a performance trade-off where increasing the Pt loading leads to higher performance of abundant triple-phase boundary areas but increases the electrode cost. Major challenges must be overcome before realizing its wide commercialization. Literature research revealed that it is impossible to achieve performance and durability targets with only high-performance catalysts, so the controllable design of CLs architecture in MEAs for PEMFCs must now be the top priority to meet industry goals. From this perspective, a 3D ordered electrode circumvents this issue with a support-free architecture and ultrathin thickness while reducing noble metal Pt loadings. Herein, we discuss the motivation in-depth and summarize the necessary CLs structural features for designing ultralow Pt loading electrodes. Critical issues that remain in progress for 3D ordered CLs must be studied and characterized. Furthermore, approaches for 3D ordered CLs architecture electrode development, involving material design, structure optimization, preparation technology, and characterization techniques, are summarized and are expected to be next-generation CLs for PEMFCs. Finally, the review concludes with perspectives on possible research directions of CL architecture to address the significant challenges in the future.

Structural features in the mid-southern section of the Kyushu–Palau Ridge based on satellite altimetry gravity anomaly

The Kyushu–Palau Ridge(KPR),an anti-S-shaped submarine highland at the center of the Philippine Sea Plate(PSP),is considered the residual arc of the Izu–Bonin–Mariana Island Arc,which retains key information about the cessation of the Western Philippine Basin(WPB)expansion and the Parece Vela Basin(PVB)breakup.Herein,using the new generation of satellite altimetry gravity data,high-precision seafloor topography data,and newly acquired ship-borne gravity data,the topographic and gravity characteristics of the KPR mid-southern section and adjacent region are depicted.The distribution characteristics of the faults were delineated using the normalized vertical derivative–total horizontal derivative method(NVDR-THDR)and the minimum curvature potential field separation method.The Moho depth and crustal thickness were inverted using the rapid inversion method for a double-interface model with depth constraints.Based on these results,the crust structure features in the KPR mid-southern section,and the“triangular”structure geological significance where the KPR and Central Basin Rift(CBR)of the WPB intersect are interpreted.The KPR crustal thickness is approximately 6–16 km,with a distinct discontinuity that is slightly thicker than the normal oceanic crust.The KPR mid-southern section crust structure was divided into four segments(S1–S4)from north to south,formed by the CBR eastward extension joint action and clockwise rotation of the PVB expansion axis and the Mindanao fault zone blocking effect.

Basic Features of the Crustal Structure in the Lower Yangtze and Its Neighboring Area in the Chinese Mainland： Review of Deep Seismic Sounding Research

The Deep Seismic Sounding( DSS) projects carried out from the 1970 s in the lower Yangtze region and its neighboring area were reviewed in this paper,then the basic wave group features of those wide angle reflection / refraction record sections,and of the crustal structure are summarized. It shows that there were in total five clear wave groups on the record sections,which include the first arrival Pg,the reflection P1 from the bottom interface of the upper crust,the reflection P3 from the bottom interface of the middle crust,the strong reflection Pm from the Moho boundary,and the refraction Pn from uppermost mantle. In general,these phases are easily consistently traced and compared,despite some first arrivals being delayed or arriving earlier than normal due to the shallow sedimentary cover or bedrocks. In particular,in the Dabie Mountain region the seismic events of a few gathered shots always have weak reflection energy,are twisted,or exhibit disorganized waveforms, which could be attributed to the disruption variations of reflection depth,the broken Moho,and the discontinuity of the reflection boundary within crust. The regional crustal structures are composed of the upper,middle and lower crust,of which the middle and lower layers can be divided into two weak reflection ones. The crustal thickness of the North China and Yangtze platform are 30km- 36 km,and the Moho exhibits a flat geometry despite some local uplifts. The average pressure velocity in lower crust beneath this two tectonic area is 6. 7 ± 0. 3km / s. Nevertheless,beneath the Dabieshan area the crustal thickness is 32km- 41 km,the Moho bends down sharply andtakes an abrupt 4km- 7km dislocation in the vertical direction. The average pressure velocity in the lower crust beneath the Dabieshan area is 6. 8 ± 0. 2km / s.

The Thermodynamic and Dynamical Features of Double Front Structures During 21-31 July 1998 in China

The daily 1°× 1° data of the Aviation （AVN） model, the black body temperature （TBB） data of cloud top, and cloud images by geostationary meteorological satellite （GMS） are used to identify a dew-point front near the periphery of the western Pacific subtropical high （WPSH）. The results clearly demonstrate the existence of the dew-point front, and its thermodynamic and dynamic structural characteristics are analyzed in detail. The dew-point front is a transitional belt between the moist southwest monsoon flow and the dry adiabatic sinking flow near the WPSH, manifested by a large horizontal moisture gradient in the mid-lower troposphere and conjugated with the mei-yu front to form a predominant double-front structure associated with intense rainfall in the mei-yu period. The mei-yu front is located between 30° and 35°N, vertically extends from the ground level to the upper level and shifts northward. The dew-point front is to the south of the mei-yu front and lies up against the periphery of the WPSH. Generally, it is located between 850 hPa and 500 hPa. On the dew-point front side, the southwesterly prevails at the lower level and the northeasterly at the upper level; this wind distribution is different from that on the mei-yu front side. Vertical ascending motion exists between the two fronts, and there are descending motions on the north side of the mei^yu front and on the south side of the dew-point front~ which form a secondary circulation. The dynamics of the double fronts also have some interesting features. At the lower level, positive vertical vorticity and obvious convergence between the two fronts are clearly identified. At the mid-lower level, negative local change of the divergence （corresponding to increasing convergence） is often embedded in the two fronts or against the mei-yu front. Most cloud clusters occur between the two fronts and propagate down stream in a wave-like manner.

Predictive modeling of critical temperatures in magnesium compounds using transfer learning

This study presents a transfer learning approach for discovering potential Mg-based superconductors utilizing a comprehensive target dataset.Initially,a large source dataset(Bandgap dataset)comprising approximately∼75k compounds is utilized for pretraining,followed by fine-tuning with a smaller Critical Temperature(T_(c))dataset containing∼300 compounds.Comparatively,there is a significant improvement in the performance of the transfer learning model over the traditional deep learning(DL)model in predicting Tc.Subsequently,the transfer learning model is applied to predict the properties of approximately 150k compounds.Predictions are validated computationally using density functional theory(DFT)calculations based on lattice dynamics-related theory.Moreover,to demonstrate the extended predictive capability of the transfer learning model for new materials,a pool of virtual compounds derived from prototype crystal structures from the Materials Project(MP)database is generated.T_(c) predictions are obtained for∼3600 virtual compounds,which underwent screening for electroneutrality and thermodynamic stability.An Extra Trees-based model is trained to utilize E_(hull)values to obtain thermodynamically stable materials,employing a dataset containing Ehull values for approximately 150k materials for training.Materials with Ehull values exceeding 5 meV/atom were filtered out,resulting in a refined list of potential Mg-based superconductors.This study showcases the effectiveness of transfer learning in predicting superconducting properties and highlights its potential for accelerating the discovery of Mg-based materials in the field of superconductivity.

Characteristics of fault structures in the south coastal zone of Taizhou based on aeromagnetic data

The south coastal of Taizhou lies on the magmatic rock belt along the southeast coast of China,which has a complex regional geological structures,intense tectonic movement,and frequent magmatic activities.On the basis of the latest aeromagnetic data,combined with regional geology,gravity,and magnetic susceptibility information,integrated interpretation of the regional aeromagnetic anomalies and their refl ected faults was completed.According to the block features in diff erent zones of the reduction to the pole aeromagnetic data,the magnetic field characteristics and relationship with the structure division were described in detail.The different characteristics of the magnetic field are the concentrated reflection of tectonic movements,magmatic activities,and stratigraphic distributions;the fault structure,especially deep and large fault structures,was inferred and studied.The fault structures were mainly distributed in the NE,NNE,and NW directions,with approximately equal spacing between them.The magnetic anomaly is mainly characterized by the boundary,gradient zones,and beaded anomalies in a different magnetic field.The faults are not only important tectonic boundaries in this region but also tectonic belts that control the distribution of mineralization.Under the interaction of these faults,they form the basic structural pattern of the east-west zone and the north-south block.The NE faults have the largest scale and obviously control the diff erent magnetic fi elds and magmatic activities.The results can provide a reference for further study of the distribution and activity characteristics of magmatic rocks in the coastal zone.

STRUCTURE OF SOUTH ASIA HIGH IN THE STRATOSPHERE AND INFLUENCE OF ENSO

The structure of the South Asia High(SAH)in the stratosphere and the influence of ENSO on the SAH are systematically investigated with the long-term ECMWF reanalysis data.The results show that the SAH only exists in low levels of the stratosphere.The maximum intensity of the High is located at around 150 hPa and there is no obvious anti-cyclonic structure above 50 hPa.The axis of the SAH center tends to be northwest slanting from lower levels to higher levels.Further analyses show that the geopotential height and temperature fields of the SAH have dramatic anomalies during El Ni?o years and La Ni?a years. Corresponding to the ENSO,the SAH is weaker(stronger)at the warm(cold)phase.

Analysis of the Structure and Propagation of a Simulated Squall Line on 14 June 2009

A squall line on 14 June 2009 in the provinces of Jiangsu and Anhui was well simulated using the Advanced Regional Prediction System （ARPS） model. Based on high resolution spatial and temporal data, a detailed analysis of the structural features and propagation mechanisms of the squall line was conducted. The dynamic and thermodynamic structural charac- teristics and their causes were analyzed in detail. Unbalanced flows were found to play a key role in initiating gravity waves during the squall line＇s development. The spread and development of the gravity waves were sustained by convection in the wave-CISK process. The squall line＇s propagation and development mainly relied on the combined effect of gravity waves at the midlevel and cold outflow along the gust front. New cells were continuously forced by the cold pool outflow and were enhanced and lifted by the intense upward motion. At a particular phase, the new cells merged with the updraft of the gravity waves, leading to an intense updraft that strengthened the squall line.

Insight into the structural features of organic species in Fushun oil shale via thermal dissolution

Fushun oil shale(FOS) was subjected to thermal dissolution(TD) under different conditions. The results show that the optimal solvent, temperature, time, and ratio of solvent to FOS are ethanol, 300 °C, 2 h, and 5 ml·g^(-1),respectively and the corresponding yield of the soluble portion(SP) is 32.2%(daf), which is much higher than the oil content of FOS(ca. 6%), suggesting that TD in ethanol is an excellent way to extract organics from FOS.According to 3 direct analyses, aliphatic moieties in FOS are the most abundant followed by C\\O-containing moieties and each cluster in FOS has 3 conjugated aromatic rings on average with fewer substituents. According to the analysis with a gas chromatograph/mass spectrometer, alkanes are predominant in all the SPs. A number of alkenes were identified in the SPs from the TD, while none of the alkenes were detected in acetone-SP obtained at room temperature, implying that the TD can destroy the π-π and intertwining interactions between alkenes and macromolecular structures in FOS. Moreover, a small amount of alkyl-substituted phenols and alkoxysubstituted phenols were detected in ethanol-SP from the TD, which could be the products from ethanolyzing the macromolecular moiety of FOS.

Recognition of Offline Handwritten Arabic Words Using a Few Structural Features

Handwriting recognition is one of the most significant problems in pattern recognition,many studies have been proposed to improve this recognition of handwritten text for different languages.Yet,Fewer studies have been done for the Arabic language and the processing of its texts remains a particularly distinctive problem due to the variability of writing styles and the nature of Arabic scripts compared to other scripts.The present paper suggests a feature extraction technique for offlineArabic handwriting recognition.A handwriting recognition system for Arabic words using a few important structural features and based on a Radial Basis Function(RBF)neural networks is proposed.The methods of feature extraction are central to achieve high recognition performance.The proposed methodology relies on a feature extraction technique based on many structural characteristics extracted from the word skeleton(subwords,diacritics,loops,ascenders,and descenders).In order to reach our purpose,we built our own word database and the proposed system has been successfully tested on a handwriting database of Algerian city names(wilayas).Finally,a simple classifier based on the radial basis function neural network is presented to recognize certain words to verify the reliability of the proposed feature extraction.The experiments on some images of the benchmark IFN/ENIT database show that the proposed system improves recognition and the results obtained are indicative of the efficiency of our technique.
