The tests with fixed model were conducted firstly on its encountering a series of monochromatic waves. A wide range of wave slope (H/L ) were selected to investigate the air gap response in detail. As can be seen, larger wave steepness will generally cause smaller air gap in the same wave period, which indicates nonlinear effects of incoming wave can amplify wave elevation. Model tests with mooring condition were also conducted in the same wave conditions. As was expected, the maximum relative wave elevation reduces obviously compared with the fixed one. However, wave shape close to columns show higher harmonic characteristics due to interaction between waves and the columns of semi-submersible platform. Meaningful conclusions from the model tests are drawn in this article, which is helpful in air gap design of floating offshore platform to a certain extent. In addition, the experimental results will provide an important reference for further research on validation and update of theoretical models of air gap.展开更多

Basic principles and experimental methods for various diffraction geometry are described, including powder diffraction, single crystal diffraction, radial diffraction, as well as coupling with laser heating system. Resolution in d-spacing of different diffraction modes is discussed. More recent progress, such as extended application of single crystal diffraction for measurements of multigrain and electron density distribution, timeresolved diffraction with dynamic DAC and development of modulated heating techniques are briefly introduced. The current status of the high pressure beamline at BSRF(Beijing Synchrotron Radiation Facility) and some results are also presented.展开更多

It is one of the most promising technique for non-destructive beam diagnostics in ac- celerators. In this paper, how to produce CDR is studied by utilizing femtosecond electron bunches at wavelengths equal to or longer than the bunch length with the aperture size at the condition of a≤γλ/(2π), which is provided by Shanghai Deep Ultraviolet-Free Electron Laser (SDUV-FEL) facility. General characteristics of CDR at SDUV-FEL are analyzed and numerically calculated. The results show that the radiance of this radiation within the frequency range from 0.2 up to 5 terahertz greatly exceeds that available from conventional black body radiation or synchrotron radiation.展开更多
