Although studies have suggested the dependence of air–sea fluxes on surface waves and sea spray, how these processes modify those fluxes under TC conditions have not been sufficiently investigated based on in-situ observations.Using continuous meteorological and surface wave data from a moored buoy in the northern South China Sea,this study examines the effects of surface waves and sea spray on air–sea fluxes during the passage of Typhoon Hagupit. The mooring was within about 40 km of the center of Hagupit. Surface waves could increase momentum flux to the ocean by about 15%, and sea spray enhanced both sensible and latent heat fluxes to the atmosphere,causing Hagupit to absorb 500 W/m^2 more heat flux from the ocean. These results have powerful implications for understanding TC–ocean interaction and improving TC intensity forecasting.展开更多

An analytical formula of the surface mobility of an infinite homogeneous plate over a rectangular contact area subject to a uniform, conphase force excitation is derived by using complex power method and the concept of structural intensity. This formula provides a theoretical tool for investigating power transmission over the contact area between sub-structures. The influences of the size, the dimension and the aspect ratio of the contact area on power transmission are analyzed and described according to the results calculated, that provides an effectively theoretical method for investigation of vibration isolation.展开更多
