The developed integration design method is composed of three modules： integrated grids generation （the moving-embedded grids for CFD sol- ver and the blade grids for radar cross section （RCS） solver are generated by solving Poisson equa- tions and folding approach）, aerodynamic/stealth solver （the aerodynamic characteristics are simulated by CFD method based upon NavieStokes equations and Spalart-Allmaras （S-A） tur- bulence model）, and the stealth characteristics are calculated by using a panel edge method combining the method of physical optics （PO）, equivalent currents （MEC） and quasi-stationary （MQS）, and integrated optimization analysis （based upon the surrogate model optimization technique with full factorial design （FFD） and radial basis function （RBF）, an integrated optimization analyses on aerodynamic/stealth characteristics of rotor are conducted. Firstly, the scattering characteristics of the rotor with different blade-tip swept and twist angles have been carried out, then timfrequency domain grayscale with strong scattering regions of rotor have been given. Meanwhile, the effects of swept-tip and twist angles on the aerodynamic characteristic of rotor have been performed. Furthermore, by choosing suitable object function and constraint condition, the compromised design about swept and twist combinations of rotor with high aerodynamic performances and low scattering characteristics has been given at last.展开更多
This study investigates why the Arctic winter sea ice loss over the Barents–Kara Seas（BKS） is accelerated in the recent decade.

We first divide 1979–2013 into two time periods： 1979–2000（P1） and 2001–13（P2）, with a focus on P2 and the difference between P1 and P2. The results show that during P2, the rapid decline of the sea ice over the BKS is related not only to the high sea surface temperature（SST） over the BKS, but also to the increased frequency,duration, and quasi-stationarity of the Ural blocking（UB） events. Observational analysis reveals that during P2, the UB tends to become quasi stationary and its frequency tends to increase due to the weakening（strengthening） of zonal winds over the Eurasia（North Atlantic） when the surface air temperature（SAT） anomaly over the BKS is positive probably because of the high SST. Strong downward infrared（IR） radiation is seen to occur together with the quasi-stationary and persistent UB because of the accumulation of more water vapor over the BKS. Such downward IR favors the sea ice decline over the BKS, although the high SST over the BKS plays a major role. But for P1, the UB becomes westward traveling due to the opposite distribution of zonal winds relative to P2, resulting in weak downward IR over the BKS. This may lead to a weak decline of the sea ice over the BKS. Thus, it is likely that the rapid decline of the sea ice over the BKS during P2 is attributed to the joint effects of the high SST over the BKS and the quasi-stationary and long-lived UB events.展开更多

Both observations and simulations indicate that in the Northern Hemisphere winter there are two waveguides for the meridional propagation of quasi-stationary planetary waves. One is the high latitude waveguide, and the other is the low latitude waveguide. These results are in good agreement with theoretical analysis. Moreover, the convergence of EP flux indicates that the stratospheric sudden warming is the result of anomalous planetary wave propagation along the high latitude waveguide and its interaction with mean flows. The tropical quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) winds, which represent one significant variation of zonal flow in the lower stratosphere at low latitudes, can influence the low latitude waveguide of planetary wave propagation. Our results of the wave-mean flow coupled model show that these tropical winds can also modulate the high latitude waveguide significantly in the case of wave-mean flow interaction.The transport effect of planetary waves on ozone is also analyzed. The residual mean circulation forced by planetary waves indicates that there is strong transport circulation for the dissipative planetary waves. Under the forcing of northward eddy heat transport, a positive transport circulation can result which rises at low latitudes and sinks at high latitudes. At the same time, the modification of planetary wave propagation by the equatorial QBO winds is shown to have an important impact on the transport circulation. The model results indicate that the meridional transport is amplified during the easterly phase of the QBO. This mechanism may explain the interannual variability of ozone in the stratosphere at high latitudes.展开更多
