Gigantic jet discharges evolve stepwise through the middle atmosphere

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Gigantic jets, lightning discharges originating from tropical thunderstorms that can reach the base of the ionosphere at 90 km altitude, have not been captured using high-speed video cameras before.

Determining distance to lightning strokes from a single station [PDF]

open access: yes, 1973
Electronic system can rapidly determine location of lightning strikes occurring within 30 km range. Longer distances are also determined, but with reduced accuracy.

A general model for analysis of linear and hyperbolic enzyme inhibition mechanisms

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We developed a general enzyme kinetic model that integrates these six basic inhibition mechanism onto a single one. From this model, we deduced a general enzyme kinetic equation that through modulation of simple parameters, γ (the relative inhibitor affinity for two binding sites) and β (the reactivity of the enzyme–substrate–inhibitor complex), is ...

Application of Markov Model to Estimate Individual Condition Parameters for Transformers

open access: yesEnergies, 2018
This paper presents a study to estimate individual condition parameters of the transformer population based on Markov Model (MM). The condition parameters under study were hydrogen (H2), methane (CH4), acetylene (C2H2), ethylene (C2H4), ethane (C2H6 ...

Advances of Observation and Study on Tall-object Lightning in Guangzhou over the Last Decade

open access: yes应用气象学报, 2020
Comparing to the ground or low-object, tall-object is more likely to reach the threshold for the initiation of leader on its top due to the distortion and enhancement of electric field, therefore tall-object is not only easier to get struck by downward ...

Luminosity and Current Characteristics of Metal-vaporized Channel of an Artificially Triggered Lightning

open access: yes应用气象学报, 2023
Channel current is an important parameter of the lightning discharge, but it's difficult to be directly measured due to the randomness and instantaneity of the natural lightning. The channel luminosity, however, is relatively easier to obtain.

Metal‐Organic Frameworks Facilitating Complexation for Long‐Cycle Zinc‐Bromine Flow Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The organic ligands (imidazole and benzimidazole) from the decomposed zinc ZIF‐62 is proposed to further improve the Br2 complexing ability of the mature complexing agent (i.e., N‐methyl‐N‐ethyl pyrrolidinium bromide (MEP) ionic liquid). The synergistic effect between Im/BIm of the decomposed ZIF‐62 toward bromine species and MEP toward bromine species,

High-speed Video Observations on Abrupt Elongations of the Positive End of Bidirectional Leader

open access: yes应用气象学报, 2020
One of the most important advances in lightning physics research in recent decades is the introduction of the the bidirectional developmengt of leaders and its observation and verification, but this theory is not paid much attention until more and more ...

Arresting Microphase Separation Encodes Material Mechanics by Sculpting Microarchitectures and Local Polymer Enrichment

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Microarchitecture sculpting via phase separation programs hydrogel mechanics by creating globular, inverse globular, and spinodal structures. Spinodal architectures deliver superior toughness and energy dissipation, while ionic modulation through single polymer phase separation offers a simple, scalable route to tune mechanical properties ...
