Seasonal dependence of TEC and SLAB thickness

Several years of hourly daily GPS measurements of the vertical total electron content (TEC) and of the equivalent slab thickness made at different European locations are analysed by using the linear regression technique to demonstrate the response of these two ionospheric parameters to seasonal variations. It is found that both TEC and slab thickness are highly correlated with season. Analytical relationships are determined expressing the seasonal dependence of the vertical TEC and of the equivalent slab thickness as a function of the seasonal parameter cos χ at noon in each location.

XML的半结构化特性造成了Native XML 数据库中数据模式规范化设计中的很多问题.采用结构信息和数据信息相结合的方法,给出XML数据间函数依赖的定义,解决数据模式规范化设计中的理论问题.建立了XML模式路径和XML数据树节点路径的定义,描述XML数据中的路径;给出了XML文档有效性的形式化定义;在此基础上定义了树元组和树元组相等的概念.运用树元组及其相等的概念定义了XML数据的函数依赖关系,进而给出了相应的自反、增广、传递推理规则,用于推导给定集合所蕴涵的函数依赖关系.并证明了这一推理规则是正确的.上述工作为Native XML 数据库系统中数据模式的规范化设计提供了一定的理论基础,增强了XML数据的语义特性.     

箔条云团的布朗运动扩散模型

假定箔条所在位置处大气运动速度是一个维纳随机过程,同时在忽略箔条的质量时箔条的运动完全反应当地大气的运动,在此基础上建立箔条云团的扩散模型及数值仿真模型. 对扩散模型进行分析得到了箔条云团扩散过程中的数字特征.对数值仿真模型的分析表明必须对大气的运动方差进行时间离散化补偿,进行离散化补偿后箔条云团的数字特征不受模拟时时间步长的影响.模拟结果证明了分析的正确性.     

Firewire: standard computer industry interconnect for test & measurement

Do you know what Firewire is? If not, you soon will, IEEE 1394, or Firewire, is an up-and-coming electronics industry standard that will soon be in wide use for interconnecting a massive variety of electronic equipment. It will be used for connecting CD-ROMs and scanners to computers, and it will be used for connecting VCRs, DVDs and satellite dishes to digital televisions. How does this affect Test & Measurement? This paper discusses Firewire, along with it's lower-end companion, USE, and how they can and will be utilized in T&M applications to replace T&M specific technologies, such as IEEE 488, and MXI. The advantages-and disadvantages-of these new technologies are discussed along with what the Test & Measurement industry should do to support these new technologies.

远磁尾磁层顶位形的偏转

利用WIND和ARTEMIS卫星观测数据,分析远磁尾磁层顶对行星际和太阳风变化的响应,尤其是偏离日地连线的太阳风速度改变对远磁尾磁层顶的影响.研究发现在2011年9月13日的事件中,P2卫星观测到高速且高密度的磁鞘流.利用最小变量法进行分析发现,磁层顶沿着偏离日地连线的太阳风速度方向发生偏转.根据相似三角形定理,推断出本次事件中磁层顶在y方向和z方向上的偏转幅度分别达到10R_e和6R_e.P1和P2卫星的相对位置也证实了这一观点.因此,偏离日地连线的太阳风速度对远磁尾磁层顶的位形影响很大.研究结果可为建立包含太阳风速度v_y和v_z效应的磁层顶模型提供观测证据.     

Potential fossil endoliths in vesicular pillow basalt, Coral Patch Seamount, eastern North Atlantic Ocean

The chilled rinds of pillow basalt from the Ampère-Coral Patch Seamounts in the eastern North Atlantic were studied as a potential habitat of microbial life. A variety of putative biogenic structures, which include filamentous and spherical microfossil-like structures, were detected in K-phillipsite-filled amygdules within the chilled rinds. The filamentous structures (～2.5 μm in diameter) occur as K-phillipsite tubules surrounded by an Fe-oxyhydroxide (lepidocrocite) rich membranous structure, whereas the spherical structures (from 4 to 2 μm in diameter) are associated with Ti oxide (anatase) and carbonaceous matter. Several lines of evidence indicate that the microfossil-like structures in the pillow basalt are the fossilized remains of microorganisms. Possible biosignatures include the carbonaceous nature of the spherical structures, their size distributions and morphology, the presence and distribution of native fluorescence, mineralogical and chemical composition, and environmental context. When taken together, the suite of possible biosignatures supports the hypothesis that the fossil-like structures are of biological origin. The vesicular microhabitat of the rock matrix is likely to have hosted a cryptoendolithic microbial community. This study documents a variety of evidence for past microbial life in a hitherto poorly investigated and underestimated microenvironment, as represented by the amygdules in the chilled pillow basalt rinds. This kind of endolithic volcanic habitat would have been common on the early rocky planets in our Solar System, such as Earth and Mars. This study provides a framework for evaluating traces of past life in vesicular pillow basalts, regardless of whether they occur on early Earth or Mars.     

Instability and unsteadiness of aircraft wake vortices

This paper presents a review of theoretical and experimental results on stability and other unsteady properties of aircraft wakes. The basic mechanisms responsible for the propagation and the amplification of perturbation along vortices, namely the Kelvin waves and the cooperative instabilities, are first detailed. These two generic unsteady mechanisms are described by considering asymptotic linear stability analysis of model flows such as vortex filaments or Lamb–Oseen vortices. Extension of the linear analysis to more representative flows, using a biglobal stability approach, is also described. Experimental results obtained using LDV, hot wire and PIV in wind tunnels are presented and they are commented upon the light of theory.     

TC11合金高温变形行为及其机理

采用Gleeble-1500热模拟机研究了TC11合金在800～1 050℃、应变速率0.005～5/s条件下的高温变形行为.根据动力学分析,确定了不同温度区间的热激活能和热变形方程.结合变形微观组织观察确定了TC11合金的高温变形机制.结果显示:TC11合金在(α β)两相区和β相区的热变形激活能分别为285.38和141.98 kJ/mol,表明不同温度区间的热变形机理不同;在两相区变形主要发生片状组织的球化,在β相区变形时低应变速率下(0.005～0.05/s)主要发生β相的动态再结晶,高应变速率下(0.05～5/s)主要发生动态回复.研究结果为确定该合金的最佳变形工艺参数提供了理论依据.
