Peculiarities of the thermal regime of the Russian plain depending on tidal oscillation Earth rotation speed

Abstract. The tendency of the atmospheric angular momentum (AAM) is investigated using a 49-year set of monthly AAM data for the period January 1949-December 1997. This data set is constructed with zonal wind values from the reanalyses of NCEP/NCAR, used in conjunction with a variety of operationally produced AAM time series with different independent sources and lengths over 1976-1997. In all the analyzed AAM series the linear trend is found to be positive. Since the angular momentum of the atmosphere-earth system is conserved this corresponds to a net loss of angular momentum by the solid earth, therefore decreasing the Earth rotation speed and increasing the length of day (LOD). The AAM rise is significant to the budget of angular momentum of the global atmosphere-earth system; its value in milliseconds/century (ms/cy) is +0.56 ms/cy, corresponding to one-third of the estimated increase in LOD (+1.7 ms/cy). The major contribution to this secular trend in AAM comes from the equatorial Tropopause. This is consistent with results from a previous study using a simplified aqua-planet model to investigate the AAM variations due to near equatorial warming conditions. During the same time interval, 1949-1997, the global marine + land-surface temperature increases by about 0.79 °C/cy, showing a linear correspondence between surface temperature increase and global AAM of about 0.07 ms per 0.1 °C. These results imply that atmospheric angular momentum may be used as an independent index of the global atmosphere's dynamical response to the greenhouse forcing, and as such, the length of day may be used as an indirect indicator of global warming.Key words.

The Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP) is an effort to investigate the past, present and future state of a number of Earth system variables, using a variety of models developed by research centers around the globe. This broad initiative aims at understanding climate signals due to both natural variability and in response to changing radiative forcing. One of the so-called endorsed MIPs of the CMIP phase 6, the ScenarioMIP, is dedicated to providing multi-model climate projections based on alternative scenarios of future emissions and land use changes linked to socioeconomic factors. The climate of the 21st century is simulated based on different forcings, which are defined from a combination of possible future pathways of societal development, the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs), and the Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs), identified by what radiative forcing level might exist in 2100.Our study will examine the integrated effect of atmosphere and ocean variability on the Earth rotation speed, represented as changes in the length of day (LOD). Angular momentum variations due to mass and motion terms will be calculated from different models for the four most prominent scenarios as well as for historical simulations. We will also analyze spatial patterns of the respective variables in order to identify those regions in the atmosphere and oceans that contribute the most to LOD excitation. Finally, we will compare trends in the total axial angular momentum functions among each other and to trends in the global temperature to show the influence of global warming on the rotation rate.

Abstract The results of a numerical analysis of unsteady heat transfer in the "metal-mold-environment" system during continuous combined casting and extrusion of an aluminum alloy in an installation with a horizontal carousel mold are presented. The heat engineering zones characterized by different intensity of heat transfer between the melt and the surface of the mold have been determined. A quantitative assessment of the influence of the rate of heating of the crystallizer on the temperature-time characteristics during the period of the transient thermal process is given. It is shown that an increase in the productivity of the installation reduces the duration of the transient thermal process when starting the installation from a cold state until it reaches a stationary thermal regime. The dependence of the time at which the installation reaches the stationary thermal regime on the rotation speed of the crystallizer wheel has been obtained.

It is expected that the demand for Metal Matrix Composite (MMCs) will increase in these applications in the aerospace and automotive industries sectors, strengthened AMC has different advantages over monolithic aluminium alloy as it has characteristics between matrix metal and reinforcement particles. However, adequate joining technique, which is important for structural materials, has not been established for (MMCs) yet. Conventional fusion welding is difficult because of the irregular redistribution or reinforcement particles. Also, the reaction between reinforcement particles and aluminium matrix as weld defects such as porosity in the fusion zone make fusion welding more difficult. The aim of this work was to show friction stir welding (FSW) feasibility for entering Al 6061/5 to Al 6061/18 wt. % SiCp composites has been produced by using stir casting technique. SiCp is added as reinforcement in to Aluminium alloy (Al 6061) for preparing metal matrix composite. This method is less expensive and very effective. Different rotational speeds,1000 and 1800 rpm and traverse speed 10 mm \ min was examined. Specimen composite plates having thick 10 mm were FS welded successfully. A high-speed steel (HSS) cylindrical instrument with conical pin form was used for FSW. The outcome revealed that the ultimate tensile strength of the welded joint (Al 6061/18 wt. %) was 195 MPa at rotation speed 1800 rpm, the outcome revealed that the ultimate tensile strength of the welded joint (Al 6061/18 wt.%) was 165 MPa at rotation speed 1000 rpm, that was very near to the composite matrix as-cast strength. The research of microstructure showed the reason for increased joint strength and microhardness. The microstructural study showed the reason (4 %) for higher joint strength and microhardness. due to Significant of SiCp close to the boundary of the dynamically recrystallized and thermo mechanically affected zone (TMAZ) was observed through rotation speed 1800 rpm. The friction stir welded ultimate tensile strength Decreases as the volume fraction increases of SiCp (18 wt.%).
