Complexity,Forced and/or Self-Organized Criticality,and Topological Phase Transitions in Space Plasmas

The first definitive observation that provided convincing evidence indicating certain turbulent space plasma processes are in states of ‘complexity’ was the discovery of the apparent power-law probability distribution of solar flare intensities. Recent statistical studies of complexity in space plasmas came from the AE index, UVI auroral imagery, and in-situ measurements related to the dynamics of the plasma sheet in the Earth's magnetotail and the auroral zone. In this review, we describe a theory of dynamical ‘complexity’ for space plasma systems far from equilibrium. We demonstrate that the sporadic and localized interactions of magnetic coherent structures are the origin of ‘complexity’ in space plasmas. Such interactions generate the anomalous diffusion, transport, acceleration, and evolution of the macroscopic states of the overall dynamical systems. Several illustrative examples are considered. These include: the dynamical multi- and cross-scale interactions of the macro-and kinetic coherent structures in a sheared magnetic field geometry, the preferential acceleration of the bursty bulk flows in the plasma sheet, and the onset of ‘fluctuation induced nonlinear instabilities’ that can lead to magnetic reconfigurations. The technique of dynamical renormalization group is introduced and applied to the study of two-dimensional intermittent MHD fluctuations and an analogous modified forest-fire model exhibiting forced and/or self-organized criticality [FSOC] and other types of topological phase transitions.

Experimental and numerical investigation on surface quality for two-point incremental sheet forming with interpolator

The unsatisfied surface quality seriously impedes the wide application of incremental sheet forming (ISF) in industrial field. As a novel approach, the interpolator method is a promising strategy to enhance the surface quality in ISF. However, the mechanism for the improvement of surface quality and the influence of interpolator properties on surface roughness are not well understood. In this paper, the influences of process variables (i.e. tool diameter, step size and thickness of interpolators) on the forming process (e.g. surface roughness, forming force and geometric error) are investigated through a systematic experimental approach of central composite design (CCD) in two-point incremental sheet forming (TPIF). It is obtained that the increase in thickness of interpolators decreases the surface roughness in direction vertical to the tool path while increases the surface roughness in direction horizontal to the tool path. Nevertheless, the combined influence between thickness of interpolators and process parameters (tool diameter and step size) is limited. Meanwhile, the placement of interpolator has little influence on the effective forming force of blank. In addition, the geometric error enlarges with the increase of step size and thickness of interpolator while decreases firstly and then increase with an increase in tool diameter. Finally, the influencing mechanism of the interpolator method on surface quality can be attributed to the decrease of the contact pressure due to the increase of contact area with the unchanged contact force. Meanwhile, the interpolator method eliminates the sliding friction on the surface of blank due to the stable relative position between the blank and the interpolator.

射流自由长度对凝胶推进剂撞击雾化影响的实验

为研究射流自由长度对凝胶推进剂撞击雾化的影响,建立了撞击雾化实验台,制备了煤油凝胶和水基模拟液,测试了雾化装置的喷射系数及模拟液的黏性和稳定性。分析了3种射流速度不同射流自由长度条件下的凝胶撞击雾化特性,观测了射流和撞击喷雾图像。测量了液膜破碎长度、雾化液滴粒径分布和相应的SMD(索太尔平均直径)值。研究结果表明:低速时,随着射流自由长度增大,撞击液膜的喷雾形态会发生较大变化,而高速条件下,雾化形态则基本一致。3种射流速度下,破碎长度在45~9mm之间,并随射流自由长度逐渐减小。液滴分布服从Rosin Rammler规律,并具有较高的拟合精度。均匀度指数均在3~4之间,并随射流自由长度逐渐降低,粒径均匀度降低;较高射流速度下,SMD随自由长度逐渐增大。低射流速度时,SMD随射流长度先减小后增大,射流自由长度存在一个最优值,在设定研究条件下其值为25/3。因此,在设计撞击喷嘴时,根据射流速度选取适当的自由长度值可以获得更好的雾化效果。      

中心等离子体片的地向对流型高速流

在GSM坐标系下, 利用TC-1卫星和Cluster/C1卫星上4s分辨率的磁场和热离子探测数据, 对中心等离子体片内的地向对流型高速流进行了统计研究(-19 Re < x< -9 Re, |y| < 10 Re, |z|< 5 Re). 统计结果表明, 地向对流型高速流会在15 Re以内出现``刹车', 在11.5 Re附近时出现``缺失'. 进一步对其速度特征进行统计分析. 结果显示, 在中心等离子体片内的高速流, 其运动方向主要为地向, 晨昏和南北方向的运动明显较弱; 在对流型高速流的地向输运过程中, 其峰值速度没有明显的下降; 在近地13 Re以内, 等离子体片内的地向对流型高速流具有较强的垂直磁力线运动速度. 这意味着对流型高速流在近地15 Re以内的“刹车”不是由高速流晨昏或南北方向的偏转造成的. 高速流在11.5 Re附近时出现的``缺失'可能与在15 Re以内出现``刹车'密切相关. TC-1卫星和Cluster卫星的观测为了解中磁尾重联高速流地向输运过程及亚暴膨胀相触发提供了重要的观测依据.      

TC-1和Geotail对亚暴过程中近地等离子体片磁扰动的联合观测

以2004年9月28日02:53:20 UT的亚暴为例, 通过TC-1在磁尾约12.5 R_e 和Geotail卫星在近地磁尾等离子体片约8～9 R_e的联合观测, 研究亚暴触发过程中近地磁尾等离子体片中等离子体波动特征. 结果表明, 亚暴触发区是近地磁尾中心等离子体片中较小的一个区域, 在亚暴触发区中低混杂不稳定性在近地磁尾等离子体片中存在, 准垂直传播的低混杂波发生在亚暴触发过程中, 而亚暴触发过程中近地磁尾等离子体片外边界区内的磁场偶极化信号和扰动都非常微弱. 在亚暴触发和亚暴膨胀相过程中出现了多次具有不同特征的磁场偶极化现象.

脉冲周期介质阻挡放电作用的PIV实验研究

静止大气下,对施加脉冲周期介质阻挡放电,半顶角为10°的圆锥前体进行了PIV实验研究。采用总平均和相位锁定平均方法对脉冲周期放电进行了分析;对比了不同占空比和不同相位角沿θ=90°半径上的切向速度和轴向涡量分布,得到了在圆锥表面等离子体诱导的最大速度和最大涡量;分析了脉冲周期放电的动量转移特性。实验结果表明：脉冲周期放电引发动量转移的主要机制是涡的增强而非气流的加速;当激励器处于脉冲放电间歇时,相位锁定平均的最大速度和最大涡量不为零,存在流动滞后效应,有利于节省能耗。     

基于雷达散射截面约束的气动优化设计

采用拉格朗日乘子法优化设计了雷达散射截面约束条件下的锥形融合气动外形.拉格朗日乘子法中的极小化问题采用动态演化的优化设计方法求解.该方法是一种基于非定常演化的优化设计方法,即在求解非定常流动支配方程的时候同时履行优化过程,较其它基于定常解的优化方法具有高得多的计算效率.其中的雷达散射截面通过求解非结构的笛卡儿网格上的时域麦克斯韦方程来得到,而升阻比则通过求解锥形流方程来计算.通过优化设计,得到了M∞=8.0时,升阻比为4.98,雷达散射截面只有1.66m2的锥形融合气动外形.
