A comprehensive study of the 2016 Mw 6.0 Italy earthquake based on high-rate (10 Hz) GPS data

The 2016 M_w 6.0 Italy earthquake is successfully recorded by the near-field 10?Hz GPS and 200?Hz Strong Motion (SM) stations, providing valuable data for this study. A comprehensive study of this earthquake is carried out based on GPS data, which contains coseismic deformations analysis, noise analysis, seismic wave picking, and magnitude determination. The noise of most GPS-derived displacement waveforms can be described as a combination of white noise, flicker noise, and random walk noise after the earthquake occurrence, and the spectral indices vary significantly for most stations, implying that the seismic signals have affected the noise characteristic of GPS-derived displacement waveforms. S-transform is employed to assess the GPS capability to detect the seismic arrival time. The SM station AMT and the GPS station AMAT are in good agreement in seismic wave picking, and the difference is only 1.2?s in the north component, suggesting that the outcome of seismic wave picking using GPS data is reliable. Then, a classic empirical formula is employed to determine the moment magnitude. A robust moment magnitude (Mw 5.90) can be estimated by the nine GPS stations with about 23.9?s. If four GPS stations near the epicenter is chosen to determine the magnitude, it only take 13.0?s to retrieve a reliable preliminary (Mw 5.82) magnitude, which is 5.4?s ahead of nine stations. In addition, Cross Wavelet Transform (XWT) is adopted to measuring the correlation and phase relationship between GPS and SM records. The result of XWT analysis indicates 10?Hz GPS is capable of capturing reliable and accurate coseismic dynamic deformations, as evidenced by the XWT-based semblance being close to 1 between GPS and SM records. The above results confirm the capability of 10?Hz GPS to capture coseismic dynamic deformations, detect seismic arrival time, and determine earthquake magnitude. Moreover, rapid magnitude determination based on 10?Hz GPS data can be regarded as an important supplement to Earthquake Early Warning (EEW).

表面介质阻挡放电对扩散火焰燃烧特性的影响

针对表面介质阻挡放电（SDBD）在激发等离子体时具有显著的气动效应和化学活化效应，为分析表面介质阻挡放电对空气/甲烷同轴剪切扩散燃烧的助燃效果，实验使用高频交流电源，基于等离子体诱导射流逆向激励对火焰施加控制。根据获取的射流流场纹影图像、火焰图像和CH*自发辐射，研究了等离子体对不同燃烧条件下火焰燃烧特性的影响。结果表明:受等离子体气动激励作用，火焰上游细长剪切层的空气/甲烷掺混得到增强，从而扩大了剪切层燃烧宽度，同时燃烧释热速率会明显提高，这主要与等离子体活化效应有关，并且该效应显著增强了位于喷嘴出口火焰基的燃烧强度。在空气流量较低时，等离子体气动激励可有效增大火焰下游湍流度和射流角，使火焰高度降低、宽度增大，且作用效果随放电电压提高逐渐增强。      

Influence of TiB2 particles on machinability and machining parameter optimization of TiB2/Al MMCs

In situ formed TiB₂ particle reinforced aluminum matrix composites (TiB₂/Al MMCs) have some extraordinary properties which make them be a promising material for high performance aero-engine blade. Due to the influence of TiB₂ particles, the machinability is still a problem which restricts the application of TiB₂/Al MMCs. In order to meet the industrial requirements, the influence of TiB₂ particles on the machinability of TiB₂/Al MMCs was investigated experimentally. Moreover, the optimal machining conditions for this kind of MMCs were investigated in this study. The major conclusions are: (1) the machining force of TiB₂/Al MMCs is bigger than that of non-reinforced alloy and mainly controlled by feed rate; (2) the residual stress of TiB₂/Al MMCs is compressive while that of non-reinforced alloy is nearly neutral; (3) the surface roughness of TiB₂/Al MMCs is smaller than that of non-reinforced alloy under the same cutting speed, but reverse result was observed when the feed rate increased; (4) a multi-objective optimization model for surface roughness and material removal rate (MRR) was established, and a set of optimal parameter combinations of the machining was obtained. The results show a great difference from SiC particle reinforced MMCs and provide a useful guide for a better control of machining process of this material.

针对中低比转速离心泵,根据叶片进出口边界条件,以逐点绘型方法为基础,提出了一种新的曲率半径可控的叶片绘型方法。该方法的主要特点是曲率半径比值可作为设计常量由设计人员根据需要事先给定,随后分析了曲率半径及比例因子对叶片安放角、叶片包角、相对速度及速度矩等的影响。结果表明,不同曲率半径比值下的叶型参数及流动参数变化范围很大,曲率半径比值较大时,节流损失较大,泵扬程较低,曲率半径比值较小时,脱流损失较大,泵效率较低,存在较优的曲率半径比值区间[1.4,2.4],使叶片安放角平滑变化,泵的综合性能较优,在该优化区间内,取较大的曲率半径比值有利于获得较优的汽蚀性能,比例因子为0时叶片安放角的变化较为平稳,可用于开展离心泵的初步设计。
