Separation of up-going and down-going wave fields of vertical cable data

The vertical cable method for acquiring and processing pre-stack 3-D marine seismic data is based on the technology developed by the US Navy for antisubmarine warfare. In order to achieve the maximum utilization of vertical cable field data, a new separation method of the up-going and down-going wave fields of the vertical cable data processing was developed in this paper, which is different from the separation of the down-going and up-going wave fields of normal VSP data processing. In tests with synthetic modeling data andactual field data, this newly developed method performs well and is also computationally simpler without pre-assumption conditions.     

基于观测资料的云系分裂现象分析

根据中尺度地面站网、多普勒雷达和卫星云图资料,对一次云系分裂现象的成因进行了分析,结果表明:两条雨带之间的弱降水是由于云系分裂所导致的;组合反射率因子反映出北支云系以层状云为主,南支云系以对流云为主;北支云系移向是ENE,南支云系移向是E,使得两支云系逐渐分离;通过低层气压梯度力的估算,北侧为西北风,南侧为东偏南风,大体代表云系底部的移向,结合雷达得到的高低层明显的移向差异,故引起南支云系和北支云系的逐步分开;受气压梯度力和地形阻挡的作用,使得南北云系分开,成为分别独立的云系。     

Air Flow Structure Over Short-gravity Breaking Water Waves

Despite its importance for momentum and mass transfer across the air–sea interface, the dynamics of airflow over breaking waves is largely unknown. To fill this gap, velocity and vorticity distributions above short-gravity breaking waves have been measured in a wind-wave tank. A Digital Particle Image velocimetry technique (DPIV) was developed to accomplish these measurements above single breaking waves, propagating in mechanically-generated wave groups and forced by the wind. By varying the wind speed and initial characteristics of the groups, the airflow structure was captured over waves at different stages of the breaking process, and breaking with various intensities. The instantaneous airflow that separates from a sharp breaking crest is very similar to that occurring over a backward facing step. The separation bubble is however strongly unsteady: the steeper the wave crest and the larger the Reynolds number based on the crest-height, the higher the separated layer and the farther downwind the reattachment point. Instantaneous flow topology displays specific features of three-dimensional separation patterns. The tangential stress above the wave profile does not exhibit spikes at reattachment but grows progressively downwind from zero at reattachment to a value at the next crest approximately that found at the upwind breaking crest. Static pressure measurements revealed that large pressure falls are generated by vortices in the separated layer, as found in separated flows over solids. This study may provide useful data for theoretical and numerical modelling of the flow and associated phenomena.     

Bildungsbedingungen von Zinkferriten im Hinblick auf die Entfernung von Schwermetallen aus Abwässern durch Magnetseparation

Conditions of the Formation of Zinc-bearing Ferrites in Regard of Heavy Metal Removal from Wastewater by Magnetic Separation Magnetic separation techniques can be applied for heavy metal removal from wastewater if it is reached to link together the heavy metals with a substance which is sufficiently influenced by a magnetic field. Such a substance is the ferrimagnetic magnetite which can be prepared under special conditions – by oxidation of ferrous hydroxide – in wastewater. In this paper, zinc was chosen as an example for technically relevant, diamagnetic heavy metals. The investigations deal with the influence of zinc onto the structure and the magnetic properties of the reaction products produced by oxidation of zink-bearing ferrous hydroxide in aqueous solutions at room temperature. The oxidation was caused by synthetic air passing through the suspension. During the reaction, the parameters pH value, redox potential, and concentration of dissolved oxygen were observed continuously. The plots of these parameters versus time yield typical courses which can be used as measurement for the progress of the reaction. The results show that magnet ite can only be prepared if the molar ferrous concentration at the beginning is four times higher than the concentration of the dissolved oxygen. Furthermore, the oxidation rate must be slow, a condition which could be achieved by mass transfer controlled kinetics. The products of the oxidation of zinc-bearing ferrous hydroxide show a colour between black and brown. They consist of magnetite, zinc-bearing ferrite and amorphous iron hydroxide. It can be observed that with increasing initial zinc concentrations, increasing amounts of zinc-bearing ferrite but also of amorphous iron hydroxide are produced. Therefore, it seems that the impact of zinc on the reaction is in such a way that more amorphous compounds instead of the thermodynamically stabile ferrite are formed; The magnetic properties show also a dependence on the initial zinc concentration: The saturation magnetization decreases with an increase of the zinc concentration. The reaction product which results from the experiment with an initial mole ratio of Zn:Fe = 1:1 points out only paramagnetic behaviour.

Diffraction of oblique waves by thick rectangular barriers

A complete analytical solution is presented for the linear diffraction of oblique waves by horizontal rectangular cylinders either fixed at the free surface or mounted on the sea bed in a finite-depth of water. Helmholtz equation is employed as the governing differential equation obtained by reducing the 3-D oblique wave scattering problem to a 2-D case. According to the method proposed, the fluid region is divided into three sub-regions in which the governing differential equation is solved by the separation of variables. The solutions for each region are then matched on the common boundaries of sub-regions to determine the unknowns of the eigen series expansions and Fourier series. Thus transmitted and reflected waves are obtained in the far-field, and forces and moments acting on the rectangular cylinder fixed at the free surface are also given. Comparisons are made in order to check the accuracy of the method.     

Liberation-limited grade/recovery curves from X-ray micro CT analysis of feed material for the evaluation of separation efficiency

Procedures for 3D mineral liberation analysis by X-ray micro CT (XMT) are presented and discussed including the construction of liberation-limited grade/recovery curves for specific feed materials. In this way, actual separation efficiencies can be compared to what might be expected for a perfect separation limited only by the extent of liberation. It is shown that 3D mineral liberation analysis based on XMT is preferred to 2D section analysis which overestimates the extent of liberation. By way of example, procedures and experimental results are presented and discussed for feed material in the case of phosphate rock flotation.     

Chromatographic Separation and Analytic Procedure for Priority Organic Pollutants in Urban Air

A separation procedure was developed for analysis of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in urban air, while simultaneously eliminating the interfering compounds. This was carried out by optimization of a column chromatograph with regard to the eluent type (n‐hexane and n‐pentane), volume of eluent, type of sorbent material (silica gel and florisil) and activation level of the sorbent material. The determination of the level of PCBs and PAHs was carried out using gas chromatography (GC) equipped with a mass selective detector (MSD), while determination of the OCPs was carried out by GC equipped with an electron capture detector (μ‐ECD). The use of a silica gel column (10 g, 5% deactivated with H₂O) with 70 mL of n‐hexane gave satisfactory separation of PCBs from PAHs and OCPs. After collecting the PCBs with 70 mL of n‐hexane, 3·20 mL of n‐hexane:ethyl acetate, (1:1, v:v) was adequate for elution of the PAHs and OCPs from the column. The primary aim of this study was to develop a multimethod for analyses of PCBs, PAHs, and OCPs in urban air as well as reducing solvent and sorbent consumption and analysis time during the clean‐up procedure compared to the US EPA standard methods (EPA methods TO‐13A for PAHs and TO‐4A for both PCBs and OCPs).     

Banded structure of drifting macroalgae

A massive bloom of macroalgae occurred in the western Yellow Sea at the end of May, 2008, and lasted for nearly 2 months. The surface-drifting macroalgae was observed to accumulate in a pattern dominated by linear bands. The maximum length of individual algal bands exceeded 10 km and the distance between neighboring bands ranged from hundreds of meters to 6 km. Seven satellite images were analyzed to determine the distances between neighboring bands. Proportions of about 24%, 38%, and 22% are responsible for the separation distances smaller than 1 km, between 1 and 2 km, and between 2 and 3 km, respectively. The separation of about five percent of the bands exceeds 4 km. The probability distribution of the separation distance is quite close to log-normal which is that found in Langmuir circulation. However, the observed algal band separation greatly exceeds the distances between convergence lines reported in Langmuir circulation.
