A pair of wedge transducers is used to generate the primary circumferential guided wave desired and to detect its fundamental-frequency and second-harmonic amplitudes on the outside surface of the circular tube. The amplitudes of the fundamental waves and the second harmonics of the circumferential guided wave propagation are measured for different separations between the two wedge transducers. At the driving frequency where the primary and the double-frequency circumferential guided waves have the same linear phase velocities, the clear second-harmonic signals can be observed. The quantitative relationships between the second-harmonic amplitudes and circumferential angle are analyzed. It is experimentally verified that the second harmonics of primary circumferential guided waves do have a cumulative growth effect with the circumferential angle.展开更多

Recently, the study of the geometric phase has attracted considerable attention in the context of quantum phase transition, where the ground state properties of the system experience a dramatic change induced by a variation of an external parameter. In this work, we experimentally measure the ground-state geometric phase of the three-spin XY model by utilizing the nuclear magnetic resonance technique. The experimental results indicate that the geometric phase could be used as a fingerprint of the ground-state quantum phase transition of many-body systems.展开更多

New peaks observed in the external lattice mode range in the Raman spectra at 13.5 GPa suggest that the structural phase transition occurs. The group mode (140 cm^-1) in Sb2O3 exhibits anomalous pressure dependence; that is, the frequency decreases gradually with the increasing pressure. High pressure synchrotron x-ray diffraction measurements at room temperature reveal that the transition from the orthorhombic structure to high-pressure new phase occurs at about 14.2 GPa, corresponding to the softening of the group optic mode (140cm^-1).展开更多

Five national NWP centers in the world have successfully applied 4DVar methods in their global NWPs, thanks to the increment method and adjoint technique. However, the application of 4DVar is still limited by the computer resources available at many NWP centers and research institutes. It is essential, therefore, to further reduce the computational cost of 4DVar. Here, an economical approach to implement 4DVar is proposed, using the technique of dimension- reduced projection (DRP), which is called "DRP-4DVar." The proposed approach is based on dimension reduction using an ensemble of historical samples to define a subspace. It directly obtains an optimal solution in the reduced space by fitting observations with historical time series generated by the model to form consistent forecast states, and therefore does not require implementation of the adjoint of tangent linear approximation. To evaluate the performance of the DRP-4DVar on assimilating different types of mesoscale observations, some observing system simulation experiments are conducted using MM5 and a comparison is made between adjoint-based 4DVar and DRP-4DVar using a 6-hour assimilation window.展开更多

Results indicate that, because the non-conventional GPS observations are directly assimilated into the initial analyses by 3DVAR system, better initial fields and 24-h simulation for the severe precipitation event are achieved than those under the MM5/Litter_R objective analysis scheme. Further analysis also shows that the individual component of meteorological observation network plays their special positive role in the improvement of initial field analysis and forecasting skills. 3DVAR scheme with or without radiosonde and pilot observation has the most significant influence on numerical simulation, and automatic and conventional surface meteorological observations rank second. After acquiring the supplement information from the other meteorological observations, the ground-based GPS precipitable water vapor data can more obviously reflect initial field assimilation and precipitation forecast. By incorporating the groundbased CPS precipitable water vapor data into the 3DVAR analyses at the initial time, the threat scores (TS) with thresholds of 1, 5, 10, and 20 mm are increased by 1%-8% for 6- and 24-h accumulated precipitation observations, respectively. This work gives one helpful example that assesses the impact of individual component of the existing meteorological observation network on the high influence weather event using 3DVAR numerical system.展开更多

The results show that the CNOPs capture the sensitive regions for typhoon forecasts, which implies that conducting additional observation in these specific regions and eliminating initial errors could reduce forecast errors. It is inferred from the results that dropping sondes in the CNOP sensitive regions could lead to improvements in typhoon forecasts.展开更多

During the decade-long series of lightning field experi- ments, the technology of rocket-wire artificially triggered lightning has been improved, and has successfully triggered 94 lightning flashes. Through direct lightning current waveform measurements, an average return stroke peak current of 16 kA was obtained. The phenomenon that the downward leader connects to the lateral surface of the upward leader in the attachment process was discovered, and the speed of the upward leader during the connection process being significantly greater than that of the downward leader was re- vealed. The characteristics of several return strokes in cloud-to-ground lighting have also been unveiled, and the mechanism causing damage to lightning protection devices (i.e., ground potential rise within the rated current) was established. The performance of three lightning monitoring systems in Guangdong Province has also been quantitatively assessed.展开更多

The second and third guidances are more effective and can identify more similar sensitive areas than the first one.Further,the size of sensitive areas is changed the same way for three guidances and the 24-h accumulated rainfall prediction is examined.The results suggest that a larger sensitive area can result in better prediction skill,provided that the guidance is sensitive to the size of sensitive areas.展开更多

It has become a powerful tool for studying predictability and sensitivity among other issues in nonlinear systems. This is because the CNOP is able to represent, while the LSV is unable to deal with, the fastest developing perturbation in a nonlinear system. The wide application of this new method, however, has been limited due to its large computational cost related to the use of an adjoint technique. In order to greatly reduce the computational cost, we hereby propose a fast algorithm for solving the CNOP based on the empirical orthogonal function (EOF). The algorithm is tested in target observation experiments of Typhoon Matsa using the Global/Regional Assimilation and PrEdiction System (GRAPES), an operational regional forecast model of China. The effectivity and feasibility of the algorithm to determine the sensitivity (target) area is evaluated through two observing system simulation experiments (OSSEs). The results, as expected, show that the energy of the CNOP solved by the new algorithm develops quickly and nonlinearly. The sensitivity area is effectively identified with the CNOP from the new algorithm, using 24 h as the prediction time window. The 24-h accumulated rainfall prediction errors (ARPEs) in the verification region are reduced significantly compared with the "true state," when the initial conditions (ICs) in the sensitivity area are replaced with the "observations." The decrease of the ARPEs can be achieved for even longer prediction times (e.g., 72 h). Further analyses reveal that the decrease of the 24-h ARPEs in the verification region is attributable to improved simulations of the typhoon's initial warm-core, upper level relative vorticity, water vapor conditions, etc., as a result of the updated ICs in the sensitivity area.展开更多

文摘The experimental observation of cumulative second-harmonic generation of the primary circumferential guided wave propagation is reported. A pair of wedge transducers is used to generate the primary circumferential guided wave desired and to detect its fundamental-frequency and second-harmonic amplitudes on the outside surface of the circular tube. The amplitudes of the fundamental waves and the second harmonics of the circumferential guided wave propagation are measured for different separations between the two wedge transducers. At the driving frequency where the primary and the double-frequency circumferential guided waves have the same linear phase velocities, the clear second-harmonic signals can be observed. The quantitative relationships between the second-harmonic amplitudes and circumferential angle are analyzed. It is experimentally verified that the second harmonics of primary circumferential guided waves do have a cumulative growth effect with the circumferential angle.

文摘The in situ high-pressure behavior of the semiconductor antimony trioxide (Sb2O3) iS investigated by the Raman spectroscopy techniques and angle-dispersive synchrotron x-ray powder diffractfon in a diamond anvil cell up to 31.5 and 30.7 GPa, respectively. New peaks observed in the external lattice mode range in the Raman spectra at 13.5 GPa suggest that the structural phase transition occurs. The group mode (140 cm^-1) in Sb2O3 exhibits anomalous pressure dependence; that is, the frequency decreases gradually with the increasing pressure. High pressure synchrotron x-ray diffraction measurements at room temperature reveal that the transition from the orthorhombic structure to high-pressure new phase occurs at about 14.2 GPa, corresponding to the softening of the group optic mode (140cm^-1).

文摘Four-dimensional variational data assimilation (4DVar) is one of the most promising methods to provide optimal analysis for numerical weather prediction (NWP). Five national NWP centers in the world have successfully applied 4DVar methods in their global NWPs, thanks to the increment method and adjoint technique. However, the application of 4DVar is still limited by the computer resources available at many NWP centers and research institutes. It is essential, therefore, to further reduce the computational cost of 4DVar.

By incorporating the groundbased CPS precipitable water vapor data into the 3DVAR analyses at the initial time, the threat scores (TS) with thresholds of 1, 5, 10, and 20 mm are increased by 1%-8% for 6- and 24-h accumulated precipitation observations, respectively. This work gives one helpful example that assesses the impact of individual component of the existing meteorological observation network on the high influence weather event using 3DVAR numerical system.

文摘We report on the transmission spectra of a sausage-like microresonator(SLM)in aqueous environment,where a fiber taper is used as a light coupler.The transmission spectra show an interesting dependence on the coupling position between the SLM and the fiber taper.When the SLM is moved along the fiber taper,the line shape can evolve periodically among symmetric dips,asymmetric Fano-like resonance line shapes,and symmetric peaks.A coupled-mode theory with feedback is developed to explain the observation.The observation of Fano-like resonance in aqueous environment holds great potential in biochemical sensing.

文摘In this paper, several sets of observing system simulation experiments (OSSEs) were designed for three typhoon cases to determine whether or not the additional observation data in the sensitive regions identified by conditional nonlinear optimal perturbations (CNOPs) could improve the short-range forecast of typhoons. The results show that the CNOPs capture the sensitive regions for typhoon forecasts, which implies that conducting additional observation in these specific regions and eliminating initial errors could reduce forecast errors. It is inferred from the results that dropping sondes in the CNOP sensitive regions could lead to improvements in typhoon forecasts.
文摘FINE particles have attracted much attention in the past few years due to their unique physical and chemical properties. For gas-evaporated fine metallic particles, a thin oxide layer is usually formed on their surface. According to Ruppin’s prediction, a dielectric coating on metallic particles should have a series of surface modes between ω<sub>TO</sub> and ω<sub>LO</sub>, the long-wavelength transverse and longitudinal optical phonon frequencies of the dielectric. The frequency of

文摘This paper reviews recent advances in understanding the physical processes of artificially triggered light- ning and natural lightning as well as the progress in testing lightning protection technologies, based on a series of lightning field campaigns jointly conducted by the Chinese Academy of Meteorological Sciences and Guangdong Meteorological Bureau since 2006. During the decade-long series of lightning field experi- ments, the technology of rocket-wire artificially triggered lightning has been improved, and has successfully triggered 94 lightning flashes. Through direct lightning current waveform measurements, an average return stroke peak current of 16 kA was obtained. The phenomenon that the downward leader connects to the lateral surface of the upward leader in the attachment process was discovered, and the speed of the upward leader during the connection process being significantly greater than that of the downward leader was re- vealed. The characteristics of several return strokes in cloud-to-ground lighting have also been unveiled, and the mechanism causing damage to lightning protection devices (i.e., ground potential rise within the rated current) was established. The performance of three lightning monitoring systems in Guangdong Province has also been quantitatively assessed.

文摘The conditional nonlinear optimal perturbations(CNOPs) obtained by a fast algorithm are applied to determining the sensitive area for the targeting observation of Typhoon Matsa in 2005 using an operational regional prediction model-the Global/Regional Assimilation and PrEdiction System(GRAPES).Through a series of sensitivity experiments,several issues on targeting strategy design are discussed,including the effectivity of different guidances to determine the sensitive area(or targeting area) and the impact of sensitive area size on improving the 24-h forecast.In this study,three guidances are used along with the CNOP to find sensitive area for improving the 24-h prediction of sea level pressure and accumulated rainfall in the verification region.The three guidances are based on winds only;on winds,geopotential height,and specific humidity;and on winds,geopotential height,specific humidity,and observation error,respectively.The distribution and effectivity of the sensitive areas are compared with each other,and the results show that the sensitive areas identified by the three guidances are different in terms of convergence and effectivity.All the sensitive areas determined by these guidances can lead to improvement of the 24-h forecast of interest. The second and third guidances are more effective and can identify more similar sensitive areas than the first one.Further,the size of sensitive areas is changed the same way for three guidances and the 24-h accumulated rainfall prediction is examined.The results suggest that a larger sensitive area can result in better prediction skill,provided that the guidance is sensitive to the size of sensitive areas.

文摘Conditional Nonlinear Optimal Perturbation (CNOP) is a new method proposed by Mu et al. in 2003, which generalizes the linear singular vector (LSV) to include nonlinearity. It has become a powerful tool for studying predictability and sensitivity among other issues in nonlinear systems. This is because the CNOP is able to represent, while the LSV is unable to deal with, the fastest developing perturbation in a nonlinear system. The wide application of this new method, however, has been limited due to its large computational cost related to the use of an adjoint technique. In order to greatly reduce the computational cost, we hereby propose a fast algorithm for solving the CNOP based on the empirical orthogonal function (EOF). The algorithm is tested in target observation experiments of Typhoon Matsa using the Global/Regional Assimilation and PrEdiction System (GRAPES), an operational regional forecast model of China. The effectivity and feasibility of the algorithm to determine the sensitivity (target) area is evaluated through two observing system simulation experiments (OSSEs). The results, as expected, show that the energy of the CNOP solved by the new algorithm develops quickly and nonlinearly. The sensitivity area is effectively identified with the CNOP from the new algorithm, using 24 h as the prediction time window. The 24-h accumulated rainfall prediction errors (ARPEs) in the verification region are reduced significantly compared with the "true state," when the initial conditions (ICs) in the sensitivity area are replaced with the "observations." The decrease of the ARPEs can be achieved for even longer prediction times (e.g., 72 h). Further analyses reveal that the decrease of the 24-h ARPEs in the verification region is attributable to improved simulations of the typhoon's initial warm-core, upper level relative vorticity, water vapor conditions, etc., as a result of the updated ICs in the sensitivity area.
