Growth and Interactions of Multi-Source Perturbations in Convection-Allowing Ensemble Forecasts

This study investigated the growth of forecast errors stemming from initial conditions(ICs),lateral boundary conditions(LBCs),and model(MO)perturbations,as well as their interactions,by conducting seven 36 h convectionallowing ensemble forecast(CAEF)experiments.Two cases,one with strong-forcing(SF)and the other with weak-forcing(WF),occurred over the Yangtze-Huai River basin(YHRB)in East China,were selected to examine the sources of uncertainties associated with perturbation growth under varying forcing backgrounds and the influence of these backgrounds on growth.The perturbations exhibited distinct characteristics in terms of temporal evolution,spatial propagation,and vertical distribution under different forcing backgrounds,indicating a dependence between perturbation growth and forcing background.A comparison of the perturbation growth in different precipitation areas revealed that IC and LBC perturbations were significantly influenced by the location of precipitation in the SF case,while MO perturbations were more responsive to convection triggering and dominated in the WF case.The vertical distribution of perturbations showed that the sources of uncertainties and the performance of perturbations varied between SF and WF cases,with LBC perturbations displaying notable case dependence.Furthermore,the interactions between perturbations were considered by exploring the added values of different source perturbations.For the SF case,the added values of IC,LBC,and MO perturbations were reflected in different forecast periods and different source uncertainties,suggesting that the combination of multi-source perturbations can yield positive interactions.In the WF case,MO perturbations provided a more accurate estimation of uncertainties downstream of the Dabie Mountain and need to be prioritized in the research on perturbation development.

Multi-Body Dynamics Modeling of Heavy Goods Vehicle-Rail Interaction

Based on the principle of vehicle-track coupling dynamics, SIMPACK multi-body dynamics software is used to establish a C80 wagon line-coupled multi-body dynamics model with 73 degrees of freedom. And the reasonableness of the line-coupled dynamics model is verified by using the maximum residual acceleration, the nonlinear critical speed of the wagon. The experimental results show that the established vehicle line coupling dynamics model meets the requirements of vehicle line coupling dynamics modeling.

Direct AFM measurements of morphology and interaction force at solid-liquid interfaces between DTAC/CTAC and mica

The adsorption of dedecyltrimethylammoium chloride(DTAC) and hexadecyltrimethylammoium chloride(CTAC) on muscovite mica substrates was examined using atomic force microscopy(AFM). Adsorption morphology images and interaction forces of cationic surfactants at solid-solution interfaces were measured in tapping mode and Pico Force mode, respectively. The images demonstrated that the adsorbed structure was varied by a variety of surfactant concentrations. The adsorbed layer on mica was monolayer at first, and then became bilayer. A striped adsorbed structure was observed in a higher concentration of CTAC,which could not be found in any other concentrations of DTAC. For force measurements, the repulsive force was exponentially decreasing with the concentration increasing till a net attractive force appeared. A largest attractive force could be observed at a certain concentration, which was close to the point of charge neutralization. The results also showed a significant impact of hydrocarbon chain length on adsorption. An adsorption simulation was established to give a clear understanding of the interaction between cationic surfactants and mica.

Multi-dimensional force sensor for haptic interaction:a review

Haptic interaction plays an important role in the virtual reality technology,which let a person not only view the 3D virtual environment but also realistically touch the virtual environment.As a key part of haptic interaction,force feedback has become an essential function for the haptic interaction.Therefore,multi-dimensional force sensors are widely used in the fields of virtual reality and augmented reality.In this paper,some conventional multi-dimensional force sensors based on different measurement principles,such as resistive,capacitive,piezoelectric,are briefly introduced.Then the mechanical structures of the elastic body of multi-dimensional force sensors are reviewed.It is obvious that the performance of the multi-dimensional force sensor is mainly dependent upon the mechanical structure of elastic body.Furthermore,the calibration process of the force sensor is analyzed,and problems in calibration are discussed.Interdimensional coupling error is one of the main factors affecting the measurement precision of the multi-dimensional force sensors.Therefore,reducing or even eliminating dimensional coupling error becomes a fundamental requirement in the design of multi-dimensional force sensors,and the decoupling state-of-art of the multi-dimensional force sensors are introduced in this paper.At last,the trends and current challenges of multi-dimensional force sensing technology are proposed.

Generation of Nonlinear Force Driven Blocks from Skin Layer Interaction of Petawatt-Picosecond Laser Pulses for ICF

The discovery of the essential difference of maximum ion energy for TW-pslaser plasma interaction compared with, the 100 ns laser pulses led to the theory of a skin layermodel where the control of prepulses suppressed the usual relativistic self-focusing. The subsequentgeneration of two nonlinear force driven blocks has been demonstrated experimentally and inextensive numerical studies where one block moves against the laser light and the other block intothe irradiated target. These blocks of nearly solid state density DT plasma correspond to ion beamcurrent densities exceeding 10^(10) A/cm^2 where the ion velocity can be chosen up to highlyrelativistic values. Using the results of the expected ignition of DT fuel by light ion beams, aself-sustained fusion reaction front may be generated even into uncompressed solid DT fuel similarto the Nuckolls-Wood scheme where 10 kJ laser pulses produce 100 MJ fusion energy. This new andsimplified scheme of laser-ICF needs and optimisation of the involved parameters.

Cyclic testing of moment-shear force interaction in reinforced concrete shear wall substructures

Previous quasi-static cyclic tests of shear walls,which routinely used an incremental lateral displacement test protocol with a constant axial load,failed to reflect the character of moment-shear force interaction of prototype buildings.To study the effect of the moment-shear force interaction on the seismic performance of shear walls,three identical 2-story shear wall specimens with different loading patterns were constructed at 1/2 scale,to represent the lower portion of an 11-story high-rise building,and were tested under reversed cyclic loads.The axial force,shear force and bending moment were simultaneously applied to simulate the effects of gravity loads and earthquake excitations on the prototype.The axial force and bending moment delivered from the upper structure were applied to the top of the specimens by two vertical actuators,and the shear force was applied to the specimens by two horizontal actuators.A mixed force-displacement control test program was adopted to ensure that the bending moment and the lateral shear were increased proportionally.The experimental results show that the moment-shear force interaction had a significant effect on the failure pattern,hysteretic characteristics,ductility and energy dissipation of the specimens.It is recommended that moment-shear force interaction should be considered in the loading condition of RC shear wall substructures cyclic tests.

Nonlinear Three-Wave Interaction among Barotropic Rossby Waves in a Large-scale Forced Barotropic Flow

In this paper. the coupling equations describing nonlinear three-wave interaction amongRossby waves including the forcing of an external vorticity source are obtained. Under certainconditions, the coupling equations with a constant amplitude forcing, the stability analysis indicates that when the amplitude of the external forcing increases to a certain extent, a pitchforkbifurcation occurs. Also. it is shown fi-o m numerical results that the bifurcation can lead to chaoticbehavior of' strange' attractor. For the obtained three-variable equation, when the amplitude ofmodulated external forcing gradually increases, a Period-doubling bifurcation is found to lead tochaotic behavior. Thus, in a nonlinear three-wave coupling model in the large-scale forcedbarotropic atmospheric flow, chaotic behavior can be observed. This chaotic behavior can explainin part 30-60-day low-flequency oscillations observed in mid-high latitudes.

Experimental Verification of the Theory of Non-Force (Information) Interaction

The work is devoted to the demonstration of the possibility of applying the formulas of information handling obtained in the theory of non-force interaction for the natural language processing. These formulas were obtained in computer experiments in modelling the movement and interaction of material objects by changing the amount of information that triggers this movement. The hypothesis, objective and tasks of the experimental research were defined. The methods and software tools were developed to conduct the experiments. To compare different results of the simulation of the processes in a human brain during speech production, there was a range of methods proposed to calculate the estimate of sequence of fragments of natural language texts including the methods based on linear approximation. The experiments confirmed that the formulas of information handling obtained in the theory of non-force interaction reflect the processes of language formation. It is shown that the offered approach can successfully be used to create systems of reactive artificial intelligence machines. Experimental and, presented in this work, practical results constitute that the non-force (informational) interaction formulae are generally valid.

Assessment of Some Density Functional Theory Methods and Force Field Models in Describing Various Interaction Modes of Benzene Dimer

Benzene dimer （bz2） is the simplest prototype of the π-π interactions. Such interactions are ubiquitous in diverse areas of science and molecular engineering. In the present work, we have made assessment on some modern density functional methods including B97-D, BLYP-D3, M06-2X, XYG3, and force field models including CHARMM, AMBER, MM3, AMOEBA on six important interaction modes of bz2. Our results not only highlight the usefulness of these cost-effective methods, which can be used as economic substitutes of the expensive CCSD（T） for complex real-world systems, but also indicate their weakness in the description of the π-π interactions, which points to the future direction for further improvements.

Hydration film measurement on mica and coal surfaces using atomic force microscopy and interfacial interactions

The hydration film on particle surface plays an important role in bubble-particle adhesion in mineral flotation process. The thicknesses of the hydration films on natural hydrophobic coal and hydrophilic mica surfaces were measured directly by atomic force microscopy （AFM） based on the bending mode of the nominal constant compliance regime in AFM force curve in the present study. Surface and solid-liquid interfacial energies were calculated to explain the forming mechanism of the hydration film and atomic force microscopy data. The results show that there are significant differences in the structure and thickness of hydration films on coal and mica surfaces. Hydration film formed on mica surface with the thickness of 22.5 nm. In contrast, the bend was not detected in the nominal constant compliance regime. The van der Waals and polar interactions between both mica and coal and water molecules are characterized by an attractive effect, while the polar attractive free energy between water and mica （-87.36 mN/m） is significantly larger than that between water and coal （-32.89 mN/m）, which leads to a thicker and firmer hydration layer on the mica surface. The interfacial interaction free energy of the coal/water/bubble is greater than that of mica. The polar attractive force is large enough to overcome the repulsive van der Waals force and the low energy barrier of film rupture, achieving coal particle bubble adhesion with a total interfacial free energy of-56.30 mN/m.

Parallel Processing Based on Ship Maneuvering in Identification of Interaction Force Coefficients

The parallel processing based on the free running model test was adopted to predict the interaction force coefficients （flow straightening coefficient and wake fraction） of ship maneuvering. And the multipopulation genetic algorithm （MPGA） based on real coding that can contemporarily process the data of free running model and simulation of ship maneuvering was applied to solve the problem. Accordingly the optimal individual was obtained using the method of genetic algorithm. The parallel processing of multiopulation solved the prematurity in the identification for single population, meanwhile, the parallel processing of the data of ship maneuvering （turning motion and zigzag motion） is an attempt to solve the coefficient drift problem. In order to validate the method, the interaction force coefficients were verified by the procedure and these coefficients measured were compared with those ones identified. The maximum error is less than 5%, and the identification is an effective method.

Minimizing electrostatic interactions from piezoresponse force microscopy via capacitive excitation

Piezoresponse force microscopy(PFM)has emerged as one of the most powerful techniques to probe ferroelectric materials at the nanoscale,yet it has been increasingly recognized that piezoresponse measured by PFM is often influenced by electrostatic interactions.In this letter,we report a capacitive excitation PFM(ce-PFM)to minimize the electrostatic interactions.The effectiveness of ce-PFM in minimizing electrostatic interactions is demonstrated by comparing the piezoresponse and the effective piezoelectric coefficient measured by ce-PFM and conventional PFM.The effectiveness is further confirmed through the ferroelectric domain pattern imaged via ce-PFM and conventional PFM in vertical modes,with the corresponding domain contrast obtained by ce-PFM is sharper than conventional PFM.These results demonstrate ce-PFM as an effective tool to minimize the interference from electrostatic interactions and to image ferroelectric domain pattern,and it can be easily implemented in conventional atomic force microscope(AFM)setup to probe true piezoelectricity at the nanoscale.

Effective Interaction Force between an Electric Charge and a Magnetic Dipole and Locality (or Nonlocality) in Quantum Effects of the Aharonov–Bohm Type

Classical electrodynamics foresees that the effective interaction force between a moving charge and a magnetic dipole is modified by the time-varying total momentum of the interaction fields. We derive the equations of motion of the particles from the total stress-energy tensor, assuming the validity of Maxwell’s equations and the total momentum conservation law. Applications to the effects of Aharonov–Bohm type show that the observed phase shift may be due to the relative lag between interfering particles caused by the effective local force.

Analysis of Electrical Dipoles Interaction Forces as a Function of the Distance and of the Form of Electrical Force Law

Here, we initially introduced and demonstrated two principles: orientation OR principle and attraction AT principle of electrical dipoles. The OR principle stipulates that any two electrical dipoles P1A, P1B, from two bodies A and B, at any distance in the free state each, will be reciprocally oriented parallel and in the same sense if the electrical interaction forces F between them are of decreasing type with distance r. If the electrical interaction forces F are of increasing type with distance, the two dipoles will be reciprocally oriented parallel but on the opposite sense. The AT principle stipulate that any two electrical dipoles P1A, P1B, at any distance in the free state each, will present always a reciprocal force of attraction FD in both cases of orientation accordingly to OR principle in case of any type of electrical force F decreasing or increasing with distance. These findings may complete our previous work where we found that FD force, between two electrical dipoles P1A, P1B considered at atomic and nuclear level, is in fact the actual gravitation Newton force FN. The paper must be considered together with this work for more consistency.

NP-MBO:A newton predictor-based momentum observer for interaction force estimation of legged robots

Swift perception of interaction forces is a crucial skill required for legged robots to ensure safe human-robot interaction and dynamic contact management.Proprioceptive-based interactive force is widely applied due to its outstanding cross-platform versatility.In this paper,we present a novel interactive force observer,which possesses superior dynamic tracking performance.We propose a dynamic cutoff frequency configuration method to replace the conventional fixed cutoff frequency setting in the traditional momentum-based observer(MBO).This method achieves a balance between rapid tracking and noise suppression.Moreover,to mitigate the phase lag introduced by the low-pass filtering,we cascaded a Newton Predictor(NP)after MBO,which features simple computation and adaptability.The precision analysis of this method has been presented.We conducted extensive experiments on the point-foot biped robot BRAVER to validate the performance of the proposed algorithm in both simulation and physical prototype.

原油-CO_(2)相互作用机理分子动力学模拟研究

CO_(2)的众多驱油机理已经被广泛认同,但受油藏因素影响,不同油藏条件下CO_(2)驱的效果差异较大。因此,需要进一步深化研究CO_(2)与原油的微观相互作用机理,明确不同油藏条件下CO_(2)的驱油方式,最大限度挖潜CO_(2)驱的潜力。利用分子动力学模拟方法研究了组分、温度、压力对油滴-CO_(2)相互作用的影响。求取动力学参数,量化表征油滴-CO_(2)间的相互作用,厘清了不同条件下二者的微观相互作用规律。模拟结果显示,色散力是主导CO_(2)-烷烃分子相互作用的主要作用能,二者相互作用主要包含两方面:一是CO_(2)分子克服烷烃分子间的位阻作用向油滴内部溶解扩散,二是CO_(2)分子对油滴外层分子的萃取吸引作用。随着烷烃分子链长减小、温度降低和压力增加,油滴溶解度参数和CO_(2)配位数增加,油滴外层分子的弯曲度减小,二者的相互作用增强。研究结果认为,在温度较低、压力较高的轻质和中轻质油藏中,应尽可能地实现CO_(2)混相驱和近混相驱,在温度较高、压力较低的中质和重质油藏中,应充分发挥CO_(2)非混相驱的溶解降黏、膨胀原油体积和补充能量的优势。研究结果能够为室内研究和现场实施CO_(2)驱油提供理论指导。

Beam-track interaction of high-speed railway bridge with ballast track

Based on the construction bridge of Xiamen-Shenzhen high-speed railway(9-32 m simply-supported beam + 6×32 m continuous beam),the pier-beam-track finite element model,where the continuous beam of the ballast track and simply-supported beam are combined with each other,was established.The laws of the track stress,the pier longitudinal stress and the beam-track relative displacement were analyzed.The results show that reducing the longitudinal resistance can effectively reduce the track stress and the pier stress of the continuous beam,and increase the beam-track relative displacement.Increasing the rigid pier stiffness of continuous beam can reduce the track braking stress,increase the pier longitudinal stress and reduce the beam-track relative displacement,Increasing the rigid pier stiffness of simply-supported beam can reduce the track braking stress,the rigid pier longitudinal stress and the beam-track relative displacement.
