The mathematical model was established by considering the geometric relationship between the moving target installed with only two transducers to radiate sound of different frequencies and the linear array. In addition, deterministic maximum likelihood and signal phase matching algorithms were introduced to effectively find the directions of arrival (DOAs) of the sound sources of the two transducers installed on the target. Factors causing velocity measurement errors were considered. To track the target, a linear array with a compass, a pressure transducer, a signal conditioner and a digital recorder was configured. Relevant requirements for the array parameters were derived. The simulation showed that a 16-element array with an aperture of less than lm can measure velocity with relative error of no more', than 4% when including typical system errors. Anechoic pool and reservoir experiments confirmed these results.展开更多

The transient impulse model of 3D collisions between particles and between particle and wall is proposed. The numerical results are qualitatively in agreement with and quantitatively comparable to the experiment data. The results show that the increases of both the cylindrical particle to pipe size ratio and the particle aspect ratio decrease the rotation about all axes. All rotations of cubic particles decrease with increasing the particle concentration. The cubic particles, rotating more drastically in the flow with large Reynolds number, rotate faster than the cylindrical particles with the same size. The cylindrical particles align with the flow direction more obviously with decreasing Reynolds numbers. However, the orientations of cubic particles are spread all over the range with no significant difference in magnitude, and the Reynolds numbers have no obvious effect on the orientations of cubic particles.展开更多

In addition, the corresponding phase distribution function is given in the entangled representation. In terms of this definition, we also analyze the phase behavior of some simple two-mode states such as squeezing-rotatlng coherent state, squeezing-rotating vacuum state, and so on. It is found that the results exactly agree with the foregoing phase theory.展开更多

The solution-treated Ti49.2Ni50.8 alloy was aged at 450 ℃ for 10 to 60 min to obtain Ti3Ni4 precipitates ranging from 37 to 75 nm. After ECAP at 450 ℃ for one pass, Ti3Ni4 precipitates introduced by aging for 10 and 30 min totally dissolve into the matrix;however, those produced by aging for 60 min become smaller. The critical size of Ti3Ni4 precipitates to totally dissolve into matrix is determined to be in the range of 37-68 nm. The dislocation density of ECAP-processed samples depends on the initial size of Ti3Ni4 precipitates after aging. With increasing the duration of initial aging from 10 to 60 min, the dislocation density firstly increases and then decreases.展开更多

But it has proven inadequate in aging polymer-modified asphalts (PMA). NCHRP 9-10 offered a modified RTFOT (MRTFOT) by adding a steel rod in each bottle. Since construction temperature of PMA mixture is 10 ℃ -20 ℃ higher than that of conventional asphalt mixtures in the field, elevating RTFOT temperature for PMA is necessary for adequate aging and proper simulation. Six PMAs with various PG grades and sources were aged with RTFO at elevated temperatures. Some were also treated with MRTFOT for comparison. SHRP performance grade and phase angle were used as indicators to analyze the effects of RTFOT under different conditions. The results show that elevating the temperature is more effective than using rods. And PMA RTFOT temperature could be determined by equiviscous principle. From limited data, O. 25 Pa ~ s is tentatively proposed as critical viscosity for PMA, but still more work is necessary to validate this. Given the fact that equiviscous principle is seldom used in field practice, a simple approach was proposed: 173 ℃ is used for RTFOT of PG70 PMAs (grading herein from un-aged asphalts) , while 178 ℃ is for PMAs of PG76 or PG82 and 20 ℃ higher than standard 163 ℃ is necessary for PG 88 or stiffer PMAs.展开更多

To achieve a fast and simple method for determining the parameters, the selection of optimal forward-scattering angles of atmospheric aerosols is required. In this paper, the authors introduce the detec- tion basis of forward-scattering of atmospheric aerosols, and the authors verify the sensitivity of the phase function to the real part of the complex refractive index. The au- thors use the Jaenicke urban aerosol model to determine that forward-scattering angles near 33° are suitable. However, the optimal forward-scattering angles in North China are between 37° and 40°. Numerical simulation shows that certain types of particle size distribution of newly generated particles and pollution have limited in- fluences on the selection of forward-scattering angles. But the ranges of these insensitive angles shift - 10 degrees for dust intrusion, and the relative deviations of the phase function are less than 5.0% within extra angles of 0° to 3°. This study can serve as a reference for the selection of optimal forward-scattering angles for visibility meters and Present Weather Identifiers (PWIs) in addition to the de- tection of forward-scattering optical properties.展开更多

According to the above statistics, the mechanism of tidal force triggering of the Wenchnan Ms8. 0 Earthquake and its strong aftershocks is discussed.展开更多

Among the various methods used for generating artificial earthquake motions, the Synthesis Method of Trigonometric Function is used widely. In this method, artificial waves are reproduced by superimposing sine waves and then adding information about amplitude and phase in the frequency domain. In the Japanese architectural design code, the amplitude is standardized as the target response spectrum, and the phase can be defined by random numbers or by the phase of one observed wave. However, a random phase is distinctly different from the phase of an actual earthquake. Further, the phase of one observed wave is confined to the phase characteristic of the artificial wave of only one specific earthquake motion. In this paper, the authors introduce a new convenient method to reproduce artificial waves that not only satisfy the standardized spectrum property but also have the time-frequency characteristics of multiple observed waves. The authors show the feature of the artificial waves, discuss the merits of the method by comparing with existing methods, and report the tendencies of the non-liuear response by using simple model.展开更多

Frequency tuning characteristics of THz wave by varying the phase matching angle and pump wavelength are analyzed. The expression of the effective parametric gain length under the noncollinear phase matching condition is deduced. Parametric gain and absorption characteristics of THz wave in KNbO_3 are theoretically simulated. The characteristics of KNbO_3 for parametric oscillator(TPO) are compared with those of Mg O:LiNbO_3. The analysis results indicate that KNbO_3 is an excellent optical crystal for TPO to enhance the output of THz wave.展开更多
