3-D direct current resistivity forward modeling by adaptive multigrid finite element method

Based on the fact that 3-D model discretization by artificial could not always be successfully implemented especially for large-scaled problems when high accuracy and efficiency were required, a new adaptive multigrid finite element method was proposed. In this algorithm, a-posteriori error estimator was employed to generate adaptively refined mesh on a given initial mesh. On these iterative meshes, V-cycle based multigrid method was adopted to fast solve each linear equation with each initial iterative term interpolated from last mesh. With this error estimator, the unknowns were nearly optimally distributed on the final mesh which guaranteed the accuracy. The numerical results show that the multigrid solver is faster and more stable compared with ICCG solver. Meanwhile, the numerical results obtained from the final model discretization approximate the analytical solutions with maximal relative errors less than 1%, which remarkably validates this algorithm.

China Ocean ReAnalysis(CORA)version 1.0 products and validation for 2009-18

China Ocean ReAnalysis(CORA) version 1.0 products for the period 2009-18 have been developed and validated.The model configuration and assimilation algorithm have both been updated compared to those of the 51-year(1958-2008) products.The assimilated observations include temperature and salinity field data,satellite remote sensing sea surface temperature,and merged sea surface height(SSH) anomaly data.The validation includes the following three aspects:(1) Temperature,salinity,and SSH anomaly root-mean-square errors(RMSEs) are computed as a primary evaluation of the reanalysis quality.The 0-2000 m domain-averaged RMSEs of temperature and salinity are 0.61℃ and 0.08 psu,respectively.The SSH anomaly RMSE is less than 0.2 m in most regions.(2) The 35°N temperature section is used to evaluate the ability to reproduce the thermocline,mixing layer,and Yellow Sea cold water mass.In summer,the thermocline is reinforced,with the gradient changing from 3℃ in May to 10℃ in August.The mixing-layer depth reproduced by CORA is consistent with that computed from the observed climatology.The Yellow Sea cold water mass forms at a depth of 50 m.(3) The reanalysis current is examined against the tracks of some drifting buoys.The results show that the reanalysis current can capture the mesoscale eddies near the Kuroshio,which are similar to those described by the drifting buoys.Overall,the 2009-18 CORA reanalysis products are capable of reproducing major oceanic phenomena and processes in the coastal waters of China and adjacent seas.

3D Engineering Model Retrieval Based on Enhanced Shape Distributions

To reuse and share the valuable knowledge embedded in repositories of engineering models for accelerating the design process, improving product quality, and reducing costs, it is crucial to devise search engines capable of matching 3D models efficiently and effectively. In this paper, an enhanced shape distributions-based technique of using geometrical and topological information to search 3D engineering models represented by polygonal meshes was presented. A simplification method of polygonal meshes was used to simplify engineering model as the pretreatment for generation of sample points. The method of sampling points was improved and a pair of functions that was more sensitive to shape was employed to construct a 2D shape distribution. Experiments were conducted to evaluate the proposed algorithm utilizing the Engineering Shape Benchmark (ESB) database. The experiential results suggest that the search effectiveness is significantly improved by enforcing the simplification and enhanced shape distributions to engineering model retrieval.

3D Multiphase Piecewise Constant Level Set Method Based on Graph Cut Minimization

Segmentation of three-dimensional(3D) complicated structures is of great importance for many real applications.In this work we combine graph cut minimization method with a variant of the level set idea for 3D segmentation based on the Mumford-Shah model.Compared with the traditional approach for solving the Euler-Lagrange equation we do not need to solve any partial differential equations.Instead,the minimum cut on a special designed graph need to be computed.The method is tested on data with complicated structures.It is rather stable with respect to initial value and the algorithm is nearly parameter free.Experiments show that it can solve large problems much faster than traditional approaches.

Evolution Property of Multisoliton Excitations for a Higher-Dimensional CoupledBurgers System

By means of the standard truncated Painlevé expansion and a special B?cklund transformation, the higher-dimensional coupled Burgers system (HDCB) is reduced to a linear equation, and an exact multisoliton excitation is derived. The evolution properties of the multisoliton excitation are investigated and some novel features or interesting behaviors are revealed. The results show that after interactions for dromion-dromion, solitoff-solitoff, and solitoff-dromion, they are combined with some new types of localized structures, which are similar to classic particles with completely nonelastic behaviors.

A high-order multidimensional gas-kinetic scheme for hydrodynamic equations

This paper concerns the development of high-order multidimensional gas kinetic schemes for the Navier-Stokes solutions.In the current approach,the state-of-the-art WENO-type initial reconstruction and the gas-kinetic evolution model are used in the construction of the scheme.In order to distinguish the physical and numerical requirements to recover a physical solution in a discretized space,two particle collision times will be used in the current high-order gas-kinetic scheme(GKS).Different from the low order gas dynamic model of the Riemann solution in the Godunov type schemes,the current method is based on a high-order multidimensional gas evolution model,where the space and time variation of a gas distribution function along a cell interface from an initial piecewise discontinuous polynomial is fully used in the flux evaluation.The high-order flux function becomes a unification of the upwind and central difference schemes.The current study demonstrates that both the high-order initial reconstruction and high-order gas evolution model are important in the design of a high-order numerical scheme.Especially,for a compact method,the use of a high-order local evolution solution in both space and time may become even more important,because a short stencil and local low order dynamic evolution model,i.e.,the Riemann solution,are contradictory,where valid mechanism for the update of additional degrees of freedom becomes limited.

Two-dimensional numerical manifold method with multilayer covers

In order to reach the best numerical properties with the numerical manifold method(NMM),uniform finite element meshes are always favorite while constructing mathematical covers,where all the elements are congruent.In the presence of steep gradients or strong singularities,in principle,the locally-defined special functions can be added into the NMM space by means of the partition of unity,but they are not available to those complex problems with heterogeneity or nonlinearity,necessitating local refinement on uniform meshes.This is believed to be one of the most important open issues in NMM.In this study multilayer covers are proposed to solve this issue.In addition to the first layer cover which is the global cover and covers the whole problem domain,the second and higher layer covers with smaller elements,called local covers,are used to cover those local regions with steep gradients or strong singularities.The global cover and the local covers have their own partition of unity,and they all participate in the approximation to the solution.Being advantageous over the existing procedures,the proposed approach is easy to deal with any arbitrary-layer hanging nodes with no need to construct super-elements with variable number of edge nodes or introduce the Lagrange multipliers to enforce the continuity between small and big elements.With no limitation to cover layers,meanwhile,the creation of an even error distribution over the whole problem domain is significantly facilitated.Some typical examples with steep gradients or strong singularities are analyzed to demonstrate the capacity of the proposed approach.

SDOG-based multi-scale 3D modeling and visualization on global lithosphere

The structure of global lithosphere is very important to the scientific researches of tectonic movement, geodynamic process, mantle convection, resource exploration, and disaster prevention and reduction. Three-dimensional (3D) spatial modelling and visualization is an effective tool for lithosphere researches. However, both the isoline/profile methods and the Euclidean-based 3D modelling methods cannot meet the requirement of real 3D modeling of global lithosphere, whereas the recently developed global 3D grid methods have some defects on grid design, such as grid shrinkage, overlapping, non-orthogonality, and nonlatitude-longitude consistency. In this paper, Spheroid Degenerated-Octree Grid (SDOG), a non-overlapping, non-shrinking, orthogonal, latitude-longitude consistent grid in the spheroidal manifold space, was chosen as the basic grid for global lithosphere 3D modeling and visualization. The SDOG-based methods of spatial representation and modelling of lithosphere were proposed. A multi-scale model of lithosphere was designed, and the multi-scale modeling and multi-mode visualization were realized at the full advantages of SDOG in multi-hierarchical and multi-resolution and the properties of lithosphere in multi-semantic. It shows that (1) the SDOG-based method has not only overcome the defects of the current global 3D grid, but also reflected the spherical features of lithosphere more realistically and naturally than the traditional methods, providing a novel solution for global modeling, numeric simulating, and data sharing of lithosphere; and (2) more detailed plates division, more precise geo-layer structure, plates boarder and surface concave-convex, and more rich lithosphere properties are revealed as the scale-model moves on.

A study of a three-dimensional self-propelled flying bird with flapping wings

In this paper, a study of a three-dimensional(3D) self-propelled bionic flying bird in a viscous flow is carried out. This bionic bird is propelled and lifted through flapping and rotating wings, and better flying can be achieved by adjusting the flapping and rotation motion of wings. In this study, we found that the bird can fly faster forward and upward with appropriate center of rotation and oscillation without more energy consumption and have perfect flight performance at a certain angle of attack by adjusting the center of oscillation. The study utilizes a 3D computational fluid dynamics package which constitutes combined immersed boundary method and the volume of fluid method. In addition, it includes adaptive multigrid finite volume method and control strategy of swimming and flying.

Criminal Law and the Moral Education of Men

For much of its history, the criminal law of England, and hence of its colonies, counselled husbands to control and correct their wives. The ability to exercise effective domestic authority was an important index of manliness. So too was the willingness to use measured force in order to secure sexual relations with an unwilling wife. Criminal law thus immunised husbands from the crime of rape. The great political theorist John Stuart Mill condemned these extensive powers of the husband and called the patriarchal family a ＇nursery of the vices＇. The leading Victorian criminal law jurist James Fitzjames Stephen took the opposite view. The manly man should take control of his little kingdom of the family and criminal law should cede him his sex rights, as it did. Modern criminal law has modemised men and curtailed these rights to women. The husband＇s immunity from rape prosecution has been abolished. What was once endorsed in a manly man is now officially condemned. And yet the discipline of criminal law, as a whole, has not been reconsidered or reconceived. There has been remarkably little reflection about its gendered history and what is has meant for the past and present moral education of men.
