To study the leakage situation of a liquid-filled pipe in long-term service, a model of a liquid-filled pipe embedded in an infinite porous medium as well as in a finite porous medium is designed. The principal motivation is to perform detailed quantitative analysis of the longitudinal guided wave propagating in a liquid-filled pipe embedded in a saturated porous medium. The problems of pipeline leakage and porosity as well as the media outside the pipe are solved to identify the characteristics of the guided wave in a more practical model. The characteristics of the guided wave are investigated theoretically and numerically, with special emphasis on the influence of porous medium parameters on the dispersion properties. Assuming the pipe is a cylindrical shell buried in an isotropic, homogeneous, and porous medium, the dispersion equations are established based on the elastic-dynamic equations and the modified Biot liquid-saturated porous theory. The characteristics of dispersion, time-domain waveform and attenuation curves varying with porous medium parameters, wrapping layer material, and thickness, are all analyzed. The increase in porosity decreases the partial mode phase velocity in the liquid-filled pipe embedded in the finite porous medium. The characteristics of attenuation are in good agreement with the dispersion curves and the time-domain waveform results.

A quasi one-dimensional analysis of sound transmission in a flow duct lined with an array of nonlinear resonators is described. The solution to the equations describing the sound field and the hydrodynamic flow in the neighborhood of the resonator orifices is performed numerically in the time domain, with the object of properly accounting for the nonlinear interaction between the acoustic field and the resonators. Experimental data are compared to numerical computations in the time domain and generally very good agreement is noted. The method described here may readily be extended for use in the design of exhaust mufflers for internal combustion engines.

This article presents the results of an investigation on condensation of a downward flowing vapor on a horizontal cylinder embedded in a vapor-saturated porous medium. The Brinkman model is used to describe theoretically the flow field in both the liquid and vapor phases. The resulting governing equation was integrated numerically with the help of the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method. The dependence of the condensate layer thickness and Nusselt number on the vapor velocity and on the permeability of the porous material is reported. Experiments were conducted to verify the theoretical findings, and good agreement was found between theory and experiment.

Abstract Select the common mooring system-soft yoke mooring system as the research object. The soft yoke mooring system is regarded as a structure composed of multiple rigid bodies, and the theoretical analysis of multi-body dynamics is used to discuss the interaction of multi-rigid bodies. The classical HYSY113 FPSO is selected as an example, for the soft yoke mooring system, the stiffness characteristics and static restoring force curved compared with those of software OrcaFlex, and they are in good agreement, which verify the reliability of the formula derived, and it is a prerequisite for the accurate simulations in further steps. Coupled analysis to the whole system in time domain is also carried out both in OrcaFlex and AQWA, and the representative response of the FPSO under different environmental conditions is compared, the results are consistent well with each other. It is a good reference for the future study in this field. Good static characteristics are a prerequisite for accurate analysis of time-domain motion. By comparing the results in the time domain, it is found that under the same working conditions, the analysis results calculated by different commercial software (AQWA and OrcaFlex) may be different. We need to perform design analysis based on the characteristics of the software.

A modified speech-processing strategy incorporating the temporal coding of information strongly correlated with the first formant of speech was evaluated in a long-term clinical experiment with a single patient. The aim was to assess whether the patient could learn to extract information from the time domain in addition to the time domain cues for voice excitation frequency already received from the initial strategy. It was found that the patient gained no significant advantage from the modified strategy, but there was no disadvantage either, and the patient expressed a preference for the modified strategy for everyday use.

A floating production system is exposed to many different environmental conditions over its service life. Consequently, the long-term fatigue analysis of deepwater risers is computationally demanding due to the need to evaluate the fatigue damage from a multitude of sea states. Because of the nonlinearities in the system, the dynamic analysis is often performed in the time domain. This further compounds the computational difficulty owing to the time consuming nature of time domain analysis, as well as the need to simulate a sufficient duration for each sea state to minimize sampling variability. This paper presents a new and efficient simulation technique for long-term fatigue analysis. The results based on this new technique are compared against those obtained from the direct simulation of numerous sea states.

Abstract The rotationally and elliptically split normal modes of the earth are observed for the 1960 Chilean earthquake by analysis in the time domain. One hundred and fifty hours of the Isabella, California, strain record are narrow band filtered about the central frequency of each split multiplet to isolate the complex wave form resulting from the interference of the different singlets. We compute synthetic seismograms using our previous theoretical results, which show the dependence of the amplitude and phase of the singlets on source location, depth, mechanism, and the position of the receiver. By comparing these synthetics to the filtered record, we conclusively demonstrate the splitting of modes whose splitting had not been definitely resolved: torsional modes (0T3, 0T4) and spheroidal modes (0S4, 0S5). The splitting of 0S2 and 0S3 is reconfirmed. We obtain good agreement between the synthetics and the filtered data for a source mechanism (previously determined from long-period surface waves) of thrust motion on a shallow dipping fault.

This paper presents the spatial domain and propagation characteristics of different wideband channels using leaky coaxial cables (LCXs) for underground environment at 1.8GHz corresponding to the Long Term Evolution for Metro (LTE-M) standards. Angular dispersion of the signal significantly affects the channel capacity, and it can be exactly predicted in both the near and far fields for underground environments by means of a multimode waveguide. A ray tracing phenomenon was exploited to visualize the wave propagation for different transmitter and receiver antenna distances by using the time domain approach for both the horizontally and vertically polarized LCXs. In order to achieve this goal, we characterized the power azimuth spectrum (PAS) and power angle profile (PAP) for different tunnel dimensions and found that the PAS can be demonstrated by a zero-mean Gaussian distribution whose angular spread (AS) is dependent on the transmitter-receiver distances and the tunnel dimensions. The results demonstrate that the horizontally polarized LCX has higher angular spread values than the vertically polarized one, and the correlation coefficient follows the decreasing function with the increment of angular spread.

SummaryIn the coming decade LSST's combination of all-sky coverage, consistent long-term monitoring and flexible criteria for event identification will revolutionize studies of a wide variety of astrophysical phenomena. Time-domain science with LSST encompasses objects both familiar and exotic, from classical variables within our Galaxy to explosive cosmological events. Increased sample sizes of known-but-rare observational phenomena will quantify their distributions for the first time, thus challenging existing theories. Perhaps most excitingly, LSST will provide the opportunity to sample previously untouched regions of parameter space. LSST will generate ‘alerts’ within 60 seconds of detecting a new transient, permitting the community to follow up unusual events in greater detail. However, follow-up will remain a challenge as the volume of transients will easily saturate available spectroscopic resources. Characterization of events and access to appropriate ancillary data (e.g. from prior observations, either in the optical or in other passbands) will be of the utmost importance in prioritizing follow-up observations. The incredible scientific opportunities and unique challenges afforded by LSST demand organization, forethought and creativity from the astronomical community. To learn more about the telescope specifics and survey design, as well as obtaining a overview of the variety of the scientific investigations that LSST will enable, readers are encouraged to look at the LSST Science Book: http://www.lsst.org/lsst/scibook. Organizational details of the LSST science collaborations and management may be found at http://www.lsstcorp.org.
