The model performance for a significant wave height is validated using in situ buoy data. The results show that the wave model effectively hindcasts the significant wave height in the Pacific Ocean, but the errors are relatively large in the mid- and low-latitude regions. The spatial distributions and temporal variations in a wind speed and the significant wave height in the Pacific Ocean are then considered after dividing the Pacific Ocean into five regions, which show meridional differences and seasonal cycles. Regional mean values are used to give yearly average time series for each separate zone. The high latitude region in the Southern Hemisphere had a stronger significant wave height trend in the model results than regions at other latitudes. The sources and sinks of wave energy are then investigated. Their regional mean values are used to quantify variations in surface waves. Finally, the spectral analyses of the daily mean wind speeds and the significant wave heights are obtained. The significant wave height and the wind speed spectra are found to be connected in some ways but also show certain differences.展开更多

The corresponding computer program was written by FORTRAN language. The dynamic responses of the high-speed train and slab track under cross-wind action were calculated. Meanwhile, the effects of the cross-wind on the dynamic responses of the system were also analyzed. The results show that the cross-wind has a significant influence on the lateral and vertical displacement responses of the car body, load reduction factor and overturning factor. For example, the maximum lateral displacement responses of the car body of the first trailer with and without cross-wind forces are 32.10 and 1.60 mm, respectively. The maximum vertical displacement responses of the car body of the first trailer with and without cross-wind forces are 6.60 and 3.29 mm, respectively. The maximum wheel load reduction factors of the first trailer with and without cross-wind forces are 0.43 and 0.22, respectively. The maximum overturning factors of the first trailer with and without cross-wind forces are 0.28 and 0.08, respectively. The cross-wind affects the derailment factor and lateral Sperling factor of the moving train to a certain extent. However, the lateral and vertical displacement responses of rails with the cross-wind are almost the same as those without the cross-wind. The method presented and the corresponding computer program can be used to calculate the interaction between trains and track in cross-wind.展开更多

文摘Spatial interpolation(SI)is currently one of the most common ways to estimate wind speed(Ws).However,classic SI models either ignore the complex geography[e.g.inverse distance weighting(IDW)],or demand high computational resources(e.g.cokriging).This study aimed to develop a simple yet effective SI model for estimating Ws in Eastern Thrace of Turkey.This new method,named MIDW(Ws),is a modified IDW through the integration of IDW with wind profile model,power law(PL),representing the influence of land cover and topography on Ws.Terrain features and elevation data of PL were obtained using normalized difference vegetation index(NDVI)and digital elevation model(DEM),respectively.Results showed superior and comparable performance of MIDW(Ws)to standard IDW and ordinary kriging(OK)across all months of year.Compared to ordinary cokriging(OCK)using DEM as covariate,MIDW(Ws)generated better results in the arid–semiarid seasons(around summer).Local complex atmospheric conditions during rainy seasons(around winter)may have affected the performance of incorporating PL with MIDW(Ws).Generally,the proposed MIDW(Ws)is simpler and easier to implement compared to OCK.For landscape-scale projects,its high computational efficiency and relatively robust performance show potential to deal with large volumes of datasets.
