In this process, the high level of tool electrode wear is used to achieve the metal material deposition. Up to now, the studies of micro EDM deposition process focused mainly on the researches of deposition process, namely the effects of discharge parameters in deposition process on the deposition rate or deposition quality. The research of the formation of micro structures with different discharge energy density still lacks. With proper conditions and only by the z-axis feeding in vertical direction, a novel shape of micro spiral structure can be deposited, with 0.11 mm in wire diameter, 0.20 mm in outside diameter, and 3.78 mm in height. Then some new deposition strategies including angular deposition and against the gravity deposition were also successful. In order to find the forming mechanism of the spiral structures, the numerical simulation of the transient temperature distribution on the discharge point was conducted by using the finite-element method(FEM). The results show that there are two major factors lead to the forming of the spiral structures. One is the different material removal form of tool electrode according with the discharge energy density, the other is the influenced degree of the movement of the removed material particles in the discharge gap. The more the energy density in single discharge is, the smaller the mass of the removed material particles is, and the easier the movements of which will be changed to form an order tendency. The fine texture characteristics of the deposited micro spiral structures were analyzed by the energy spectrum analysis and the metallographic analysis. It shows that the components of the deposited material are almost the same as those of the tool electrode. Moreover the deposited material has the brass metallic luster in the longitudinal profile and has compact bonding with the base material. This research is useful to understand the micro-process of micro EDM deposition better and helpful to increase the controllability of the new EDM method for fabrication of micro structures.展开更多

The concrete structure surrounding the spiral case was simulated with a three-dimensional finite element model. Then, the distribution and evolution of the structural damage were studied. Based on investigation of the change of gap openings between the steel liner and concrete structure, the impact of the non-uniform variation of gaps on the load-beating ratio between the steel liner and concrete structure was analyzed. The comparison of calculated results of the simplified and simulation algorithms shows that the simulation algorithm is a feasible option for the calculation of spiral case structures. In addition, the shell-spring model was introduced for optimization analysis, and the results were reasonable.展开更多

The present study was undertaken to determine how these different shapes within a crystal structure can be explained. Since the usual method of observing them is by either X-ray and electron diffraction or electron microscopy, we investigated Fourier transforms of these forms, which were considered in terms of spirals with varying radii. Three types of spirals were considered, namely: 1) Archimedean spiral;2) Involute of a circle or power spiral and 3) Logarithmic spiral. Spiraling caused the radius r to be modified by a factor f(θ), so that r becomes rf(θ), where f(θ) = θ for Archimedean helix, θn for power helices like θ1/2 for Fermat’s helix, θ-1 for hyperbolic helix and eθ or e-θ for logarithmic helix, r and θ being co-ordinates of the map on which the helix has to be drawn, f(θ) is unaffected by the magnitude of r. Expressions have been derived that explain the diffraction of structures containing the distortions described above, and bring all of these phenomena under one “umbrella” of a comprehensive theory.展开更多

It brought serious damage and induced prodigious economical loss. Using a new generation of mesoscale model, named the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) modeling system, with 1.667 km grid horizontal spacing on the finest nested mesh, Rananim was successfully simulated in terms of track, intensity, eye, eyewall, and spiral rainbands. We compared the structures of Rananim to those of hurricanes in previous studies and observations to assess the validity of simulation. The three-dimensional (3D) dynamic and thermal structures of eye and eyewall were studied based on the simulated results. The focus was investigation of the characteristics of the vortex Rossby waves in the inner-core region. We found that the Rossby vortex waves propagate azimuthally upwind against the azimuthal mean tangential flow around the eyewall, and their period was longer than that of an air parcel moving within the azimuthal mean tangential flow. They also propagated outward against the boundary layer inflow of the azimuthal mean vortex. Puthermore, we studied the connection between the spiral potential vorticity (PV) bands and spiral rainbands, and found that the vortex Rossby waves played an important role in the formation process of spiral rainbands.展开更多

If the nonlinear advective terms are considered, this typical pattern can be bifurcated. It is shown that the surface low pressure with convergent cyclonic vorticity and surface high pressure with divergent anticyclonic vorticity are all stable under certain conditions. The anomalous structure with convergent anticyclonic vorticity is always unstable. But the anomalous weak high pressure structure with convergent cyclonic vorticity can exist, and this denotes the cyclone’s dying out.展开更多

Within the two-mode approximation, Bloch bands of spin-1 condensates are presented. The results show that the Bloch bands exhibit a complex structure as the atom density of mF = 0 hyperfine state increases: bands splitting, reversion, intersection and loop structure are excited subsequently. The complex band structure should be related to the tunneling and spin-mixing dynamics.展开更多

But the anomalous weak high pressure structure with convergent cyclonic vorticity can exist, and this denotes the cyclone’s dying out.

文摘The energy band structure of spin-1 condensates with repulsive spimindependent and either ferromagnetic or antiferromagnetic spin-dependent interactions in one-dimensional (1D) periodic optical lattices is discussed. Within the two-mode approximation, Bloch bands of spin-1 condensates are presented. The results show that the Bloch bands exhibit a complex structure as the atom density of mF = 0 hyperfine state increases: bands splitting, reversion, intersection and loop structure are excited subsequently. The complex band structure should be related to the tunneling and spin-mixing dynamics.

文摘We study the vertical distribution of the highly inclined galaxies from the Continuum Halos in Nearby Galaxies—an EVLA Survey(CHANG-ES).We explore the feasibility of photometrically deriving the HⅠdisk scale heights from the moment-0 images of the relatively edge-on galaxies with inclination>80°,by quantifying the systematic broadening effects and thus deriving correction equations for direct measurements.The corrected HⅠdisk scale heights of the relatively edge-on galaxies from the CHANG-ES sample show trends consistent with the quasiequilibrium model of the vertical structure of gas disks.The procedure provides a convenient way to derive the scale heights and can easily be applied to statistical samples in the future.
文摘背景:现子宫内膜结构及子宫螺旋动脉血流参数对夫精宫腔内人工授精(artificial insemination by husband,AIH)妊娠率的影响水平尚不明确,该研究通过校准其他混杂因素后,确定了其独立影响因素,并构建了预测模型,具有较好的临床应用效能。目的:基于子宫内膜结构及子宫螺旋动脉血流参数构建AIH临床妊娠预测模型及验证。方法:回顾性分析2017年1月至2021年1月于常州市妇幼保健院接受AIH助孕治疗患者共1299例,将其中1182例未临床妊娠者纳入未妊娠组,117例临床妊娠者纳入妊娠组;通过1∶1倾向评分匹配,妊娠组与未妊娠组各匹配成功93例;采用单、多因素分析筛选子宫内膜结构及子宫螺旋动脉血流参数对AIH结局的影响因素,通过受试者工作曲线确定各独立影响因素的最佳截断值,限制性立方样条法分析各独立影响因素对AIH妊娠影响的风险趋势,临床决策曲线与临床影响曲线对该联合预测模型的临床应用效能进行检验。结果与结论:①倾向评分后妊娠组与未妊娠组各非内膜因素均无显著统计学意义,数据具有较好的均衡性(P>0.05);②单因素分析结果显示,内膜下血管化指数、血流指数、血管化血流指数、子宫动脉阻力指数、子宫动脉搏动指数、收缩期最高血流速度/舒张期末血流速度、基底子宫内膜到外子宫肌层内层平均交界区、最大交界区厚度为AIH妊娠的影响因素(P<0.05);③多因素Logistic回归结果显示,基底子宫内膜到外子宫肌层内层平均交界区厚度、子宫动脉搏动指数、血管化血流指数为AIH妊娠的独立影响因素,影响大小依次为血管化血流指数>基底子宫内膜到外子宫肌层内层平均交界区厚度>子宫动脉搏动指数;④受试者工作曲线显示,血管化血流指数的曲线下面积为0.704(0.629,0.779),最佳截断值为6.26;基底子宫内膜到外子宫肌层内层平均交界区厚度的曲线下面积为0.660(0.582,0.739),最佳截断值为6.38;子宫动脉搏动指数的曲线下面积为0.642(0.563,0.721),最佳截断值为1.18;⑤限制性立方样条曲线显示,当血管化血流指数>6.24时,其对AIH妊娠具有显著的正影响趋势;基底子宫内膜到外子宫肌层内层平均交界区厚度≤6.55 mm时,其对AIH妊娠具有显著的正影响趋势;当子宫动脉搏动指数>1.27时,其对AIH妊娠具有负影响风险;⑥临床决策曲线与临床影响曲线显示,该联合预测模型在阈概率值为0.17-0.93时具有临床最大净获益,且在该阈概率范围内损失与获益的比值始终小于1,显示出该联合预测模型具有较好的临床效能;⑦结果表明,通过倾向评分与多因素Logistic回归校正子宫内膜外其他混杂因素后,基底子宫内膜到外子宫肌层内层平均交界区厚度、子宫动脉搏动指数、血管化血流指数为AIH妊娠的独立影响因素,通过对其最佳截断值的确定与风险趋势性评估,证实该联合预测模型具有较好的预测价值与临床应用效能。
