Fluctuating pressure is an important feature of the bottom of a stilling basin with step-down floor. To analyze the frequency domain characteristics and energy distribution of this fluctuating pressure, the Hilbert–Huang transform (HHT) method is used. First, empirical mode decomposition is performed on the pressure fluctuation signal to obtain a number of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs), and then the Hilbert transformation is performed on each IMF to obtain the Hilbert spectrum and marginal spectrum for characterizing the pressure fluctuation signal. The results show that the fluctuating pressure signal of the stilling basin with step-down floor has obvious characteristics of low frequency and large amplitude. The dominant frequencies of the head and tail of the stilling basin are very prominent, and most of the energy is concentrated below 5.0 Hz; with the increase in the relative position of the measuring point, the energy distribution in stilling basin with step-down floor changes from high-frequency component to low-frequency component. The fluctuating pressure signal of the stilling basin with step-down floor has random amplitude modulation and frequency modulation. The marginal spectrum obtained by the HHT method can obtain the local characteristics of the signal more accurately and is more suitable for processing nonlinear and nonstationary signals.

The violent fluctuation of hydrodynamic pressure in stilling basins is an important factor threatening the safety of the bottom plates of stilling basins, and plays an important role in the safe operation of stilling basins. In order to deeply understand the fluctuating characteristics of stilling basins, the fluctuating pressure signal of a stilling basin bottom plate is processed by the Hilbert-Huang transform method through a hydraulic model test. In this paper, three signal decomposition methods are used to decompose the pulsating pressure signal. A Hilbert transform is used to select the component with the best decomposition effect. The time-frequency-amplitude diagram of the pulsating pressure signal is obtained by Hilbert transform, and its time-frequency characteristics are discussed in depth. The analysis results are as follows: (a) the decomposition results from the CEEMD method are orthogonal and complete. The HHT method is suitable for processing fluctuating pressure signals. (b) With an increase in IMF decomposition order, the signal frequency band becomes narrow, the Hilbert spectrum amplitude decreases and the pulsating pressure energy decreases. The decomposition of the fluctuating pressure signal into components of different scales shows that the turbulence is composed of multiple scales of vortices, reflecting the vortex structure in the turbulence. (c) The jet impingement zone of the drop bucket stilling basin is near x/L = 0.075. The dominant frequency and marginal spectrum energy of the jet impingement zone are very prominent, and the marginal spectrum energy is mostly concentrated within 5.0 Hz. (d) At different drop height and different flow energy ratio, the fluctuation in the dominant frequency of fluctuating pressure decreases, the dominant frequency of the head of the stilling basin is larger, the dominant frequency of the middle and rear parts tends to be stable, and the dominant frequency is finally stabilized at about 1.0 Hz. This paper attempts to use the HHT method to process the fluctuating pressure signal, and the results provide a new discussion method for exploring the fluctuating pressure characteristics of hydraulic structures.

For empirical mode decomposition (EMD) of Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT) exists the problem of mode mixing. An analysis method based on ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) is proposed to apply to fault diagnosis of rolling bearing. This paper puts forward, after signal pretreatment, applying EEMD method to acquire the intrinsic mode function (IMF) of fault signal. Then according to correlation coefficient for IMFs and the signal before decomposing by EEMD method, some redundant low frequency IMFs produced in the process of decomposition can be eliminated, then the effective IMF components are selected to perform a local Hilbert marginal spectrum analysis, then fault characteristics are extracted. Through the vibration analysis of inner-race fault bearing it shows that this method can be effectively applied to extract fault characteristics of rolling bearing.

A new spectral representation method of earthquake recordings using an improved Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT) is proposed in the paper. Firstly, the problem that the intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) decomposed by the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) in HHT is not exactly orthogonal is pointed out and improved through the Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization method which is referred as the orthogonal empirical mode decomposition (OEMD). Combined the OEMD and the Hilbert transform (HT) which is referred as the improved Hilbert-Huang transform (IHHT), the orthogonal intrinsic mode functions (OIMFs) and the orthogonal Hilbert spectrum (OHS) and the orthogonal Hilbert marginal spectrum (OHMS) are obtained. Then, the IHHT has been applied for the analysis of the El Centro earthquake recording. The obtained spectral representation result shows that the OHS gives more detailed and accurate information in a time–frequency–energy presentation than the Hilbert spectrum (HS) and the OHMS gives more faithful low-frequency energy presentation than the Fourier spectrum (FS) and the Hilbert marginal spectrum (HMS).

This paper presents a large eddy simulation of a centrifugal pump impeller during a transient condition. The flow rate is sinusoidal and oscillates between 0.25Qd (Qd indicates design load) and 0.75Qd when the rotating speed is maintained. Research shows that in one period, the inlet flow rate will twice reach 0.5Qd, and among the impeller of one moment is a stall state, but the other is a non-stall state. In the process of flow development, the evolution of low-frequency pressure fluctuation shows an obviously sinusoidal form, whose frequency is insensitive to the monitoring position and equals to that of the flow rate. However, inside the impeller, the phase and amplitude in the stall passages lag behind more and are stronger than that in the non-stall passages. Meanwhile, the strongest region of the high-frequency pressure fluctuation appears in the stall passages at the transient rising stage. The second dominant frequency in stall passages is 2.5 times to that in non-stall passages. In addition, similar to the pressure fluctuation, the evolution of the low-frequency head shows a sinusoidal form, whose phase is lagging behind that by one-third of a period in the inlet flow rate.

AbstractTo study the lightning electromagnetic pulse (LEMP) coupling and protection problems of shielding enclosure with penetrating wire, we adopt the model with proper size which is close to the practical engineering and the two-step finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method is used for calculation in this paper. It is shown that the coupling voltage on the circuit lead inside the enclosure increases about 34 dB, when add 1.0 m long penetrating wire at the aperture, comparing with the case without penetrating wire. Meanwhile, the waveform, has the same wave outline as the lightning current source, shows that the penetrating wire brings a large number of low frequency component into the enclosure. The coupling effect in the enclosure will reduce greatly when penetrating wire has electrical connection with the enclosure at the aperture and the coupling voltage increase only about 12 dB than the case without penetrating wire. Moreover, the results show that though the waveguide pipe can reduce the coupling effect brought by the penetrating wire, the exposing part of penetrating wire can increase the coupling when the penetrating wire outside the enclosure is longer than the waveguide pipe and the longer the exposing part is, the stronger the coupling is.

The flow past 3D rigid cavity is a common structure on the surface of the underwater vehicle. The hydrodynamic noise generated by the structure has attracted considerable attention in recent years. Based on LES-Lighthill equivalent sources method, a 3D cavity is analyzed in this paper, when the Mach number is 0.0048. The hydrodynamic noise and the radiated mechanism of 3D cavity are investigated from the correlation between fluctuating pressure and frequency, the near-field sound pressure intensity, and the propagation directivity. It is found that the hydrodynamic noise is supported by the low frequency range, and fluctuating pressure of the trailing-edge is the largest, which is the main dipole source.

Abstract. Small amplitude electron - acoustic solitons are studied in a magnetized plasma consisting of two types of electrons, namely cold electron beam and background plasma electrons and two temperature ion plasma. The analysis predicts rarefactive solitons. The model may provide a possible explanation for the perpendicular polarization of the low-frequency component of the broadband electrostatic noise observed in the Earth's magnetotail.

Experimental data obtained by measuring the tangential component of the force affecting radial baffles in a flat-bottomed cylindrical mixing vessel stirred with a Rushton turbine impeller is analysed. Spectral analysis of the experimental data demonstrated the presence of its macro-instability (MI) related low-frequency component embedded in the total force. Two distinct dimensionless frequencies (both directly proportional to the impeller speed of rotation N) of the occurence of the MI component were detected: a lower frequency of approximately 0.025N and a higher frequency of about 0.085N. The relative magnitude QMI of the MI-related component of the total tangential force was evaluated by a combination of proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) and spectral analysis. The values of magnitude QMI varied in the interval [rom approximately 0.05 to 0.30. The magnitude QMI takes maximum values at low Reynolds number values (in laminar and transitional regions). In the turbulent region (ReM >20000) the QMI value is low and practically constant. The dependence oj the QMI values on vertical position in the vessel is only marginal. The results suggest that the magnitude of the MI component of the force is significantly influenced by the liquid viscosity and density.
