An obvious stratification is observed in the simulation. The layering phenomenon is a hybrid acceleration mechanism reflecting target normal sheath acceleration and radiation pressure acceleration, and this phenomenon is understood from the simulated energy spectrum,ionization and spatial electric field distribution. According to the stratification, it is suggested that high-quality heavy-ion beams could be expected for fusion reactions to synthesize superheavy nuclei. Two plasma clusters in the stratification are observed simultaneously, which suggest new techniques for plasma experiments as well as thinner metal targets in the precision machining process.展开更多

These influences are also illustrated through other technologies, including Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) and the chromatic effects captured by hyperspectral cameras. This research addresses the complexities of interpreting unusual propagation patterns, such as Long Delay Echoes (LDE) and unexpected Field Echoes (UFE), which disrupt the anticipated propagation and echo protocols, thereby challenging our understanding and comprehension of radio transmission norms that may be influenced by a form of quantum entanglement. The paper posits a significant and largely unexamined correlation between these phenomena in the context of UAP activity, highlighting the urgent need for further research and innovative strategies in navigation technology and environmental monitoring to investigate these potential occurrences, which have remained enigmatic for nearly a century. Radar signals are vulnerable to intricate dynamics that can lead to Unusual Field Echoes (UFE), resulting in emergent anomalies, such as Multiple echo returns and LDEs. This study employed a 3-centimeter marine-based X-band radar operating in two scan geometries and a portable short-range millimeter-wave Doppler radar system. An analysis of these radar echoes over a two-year study identified signal propagation that deviated from navigational standards on Plan Position Indicators (PPI). This paper explores and investigates the potential impacts of UAP on radar transmission routes. Examining these complexities makes a case for an enhanced understanding of the interactions between established technological factors and elusive aerial phenomena.展开更多

An understanding of the complex multiscale and multiphysics transport phenomena occurring in these electrochemical systems requires powerful numerical tools. Over the past decades, the lattice Boltzmann (LB) method has attracted broad interest in the computational fluid dynamics and the numerical heat transfer communities, primarily due to its kinetic nature making it appropriate for modeling complex multiphase transport phenomena. More importantly, the LB method fits well with parallel computing due to its locality feature, which is required for large-scale engineering applications. In this article, we review the LB method for gas-liquid two-phase flows, coupled fluid flow and mass transport in porous media, and particulate flows. Examples of applications are provided in fuel cells and flow batteries. Further developments of the LB method are also outlined.展开更多

A gas mixture of CO2 and Ar was injected into a NaOH solution bath. The flow field, volumetric mass transfer coefficient per unit volume （Ak/V; where A is the contact area between phases, V is the volume, and k is the mass transfer coeffi- cient）, and gas utilization ratio （t/） were then measured at different gas flow rates and blow angles. The results showed that the flow field could be divided into five regions, i.e., injection, strong loop, weak loop, splashing, and dead zone. Whereas the Ak/V of the bath increased and then decreased with increasing gas flow rate, and n steadily increased. When the converter was rotated clockwise, both Ak/F and t/increased. However, the flow condition deteriorated when the gas flow rate and blow angle were drastically increased. Therefore, these para- meters must be controlled to optimal conditions. In the proposed model, the optimal gas flow rate and blow angle were 7.5 m3.h-1 and 10°, respectively.展开更多

The local well-posedess for this equations is established. Some sufficient conditions for blow-up of the solutions in finite time are given. Moreover, by separation method, the self-similar solutions for the nonlinear shallow water equations are obtained, and which local or global behavior can be determined by the corresponding Emden equation.展开更多

The results show that the configuration and operation of tundish play an important part in quality assurance of grade 20 carbon-steel products. By optimizing the configuration of the tundish, the depth of liquid bath in tundish is enhanced, the impact of liquid steel is decreased, and the residence time of liquid steel is lengthened, which is useful for eliminating inclusions and blowholes and improving the service life of tundish. Improving the pouring and tapping operation of liquid steel can avoid the contact of liquid steel with air, and decrease re-oxidation. Strict control of the superheat degree of casting liquid steel can decrease the non-metallic inclusion content of the re-oxidation in billets and reduce the erosion of tundish. The inclusions and blowholes in the continuous casting grade 20 steel billets are reduced to a great extent and qualification rate is enhanced from 60% to 80%.展开更多
