Comparaison des traductions japonaise et chinoise de Paul Morand pendant les années 1920 et 1930
Authors: Yeung Sabrina Choi-Kit 
Published: November 2016

Pour comprendre l’émergence des mouvements modernistes dans les littératures japonaise et chinoise, au cours des années 1920 et 1930, « le modernisme », « l’École des sensations nouvelles » et « Paul Morand » sont trois jalons incontournables. Nous proposons dans cet article une comparaison des mouvements modernistes japonais et chinois à partir de la traduction, en nous concentrant sur deux nouvelles de Paul Morand : La nuit romaine et La nuit des six-jours qui ont été traduites en japonais et en chinois au cours de cette période. Grâce à l’étude comparée des traductions, nous tentons de répondre aux questions suivantes : comment le statut culturel des traducteurs a-t-il influencé leurs stratégies de traduction ? En quoi les stratégies de traduction japonaise et chinoise ont-elles été vectrices d’une certaine forme de modernité ? Comment les choix de traduction ont-ils dévoilé les multiples facettes de la modernité des deux pays ?
Intrawellbore kinematic and frictional losses in a horizontal well in a bounded confined aquifer
Authors: Wang Quanrong , Zhan Hongbin 
Published: November 2016

AbstractHorizontal drilling has become an appealing technology for water resource exploration or aquifer remediation in recent decades, due to decreasing operational cost and many technical advantages over vertical wells. However, many previous studies on flow into horizontal wells were based on the Uniform Flux Boundary Condition (UFBC), which does not reflect the physical processes of flow inside the well accurately. In this study, we investigated transient flow into a horizontal well in an anisotropic confined aquifer laterally bounded by two constant‐head boundaries. Three types of boundary conditions were employed to treat the horizontal well, including UFBC, Uniform‐Head Boundary Condition (UHBC), and Mixed‐Type Boundary Condition (MTBC). The MTBC model considered both kinematic and frictional effects inside the horizontal well, in which the kinematic effect referred to the accelerational and fluid‐inflow effects. A new solution of UFBC was derived by superimposing the point sink/source solutions along the axis of a horizontal well with a uniform flux distribution. New solutions of UHBC and MTBC were obtained by a hybrid analytical‐numerical method, and an iterative method was proposed to determine the well discretization required for achieving sufficiently accurate results. This study showed that the differences among the UFBC, UHBC, and MTBC solutions were obvious near the well screen, decreased with distance from the well, and became negligible near the constant‐head boundary. The relationship between the flow rate and the drawdown was nonlinear for the MTBC solution, while it was linear for the UFBC and UHBC solutions.

AbstractMost of the well‐preserved ophiolite complexes are believed to form in suprasubduction zone (SSZ) settings. We compare physical properties and seismic structure of SSZ crust at the Izu‐Bonin‐Mariana (IBM) fore arc with oceanic crust drilled at Holes 504B and 1256D to evaluate the similarities of SSZ and oceanic crust. Expedition 352 basement consists of fore‐arc basalt (FAB) and boninite lavas and dikes. P‐wave sonic log velocities are substantially lower for the IBM fore arc (mean values 3.1–3.4 km/s) compared to Holes 504B and 1256D (mean values 5.0–5.2 km/s) at depths of 0–300 m below the sediment‐basement interface. For similar porosities, lower P‐wave sonic log velocities are observed at the IBM fore arc than at Holes 504B and 1256D. We use a theoretical asperity compression model to calculate the fractional area of asperity contact Af across cracks. Af values are 0.021–0.025 at the IBM fore arc and 0.074–0.080 at Holes 504B and 1256D for similar depth intervals (0–300 m within basement). The Af values indicate more open (but not necessarily wider) cracks in the IBM fore arc than for the oceanic crust at Holes 504B and 1256D, which is consistent with observations of fracturing and alteration at the Expedition 352 sites. Seismic refraction data constrain a crustal thickness of 10–15 km along the IBM fore arc. Implications and inferences are that crust‐composing ophiolites formed at SSZ settings could be thick and modified after accretion, and these processes should be considered when using ophiolites as an analog for oceanic crust.

Published: November 2016

AbstractThe Antarctic Circumpolar Current is an important component of the global climate system connecting the major ocean basins as it flows eastward around Antarctica, yet due to the paucity of data, it remains unclear how much water is transported by the current. Between 2007 and 2011 flow through Drake Passage was continuously monitored with a line of moored instrumentation with unprecedented horizontal and temporal resolution. Annual mean near‐bottom currents are remarkably stable from year to year. The mean depth‐independent or barotropic transport, determined from the near‐bottom current meter records, was 45.6 sverdrup (Sv) with an uncertainty of 8.9 Sv. Summing the mean barotropic transport with the mean baroclinic transport relative to zero at the seafloor of 127.7 Sv gives a total transport through Drake Passage of 173.3 Sv. This new measurement is 30% larger than the canonical value often used as the benchmark for global circulation and climate models.
Onset and withdrawal of the large‐scale South Asian monsoon: A dynamical definition using change point detection
Authors: Walker Jennifer M. , Bordoni Simona 
Published: November 2016

AbstractWe introduce an objective definition for onset and withdrawal of the South Asian summer monsoon (SASM), based on the large‐scale atmospheric moisture budget. The change point (CHP) index allows precise characterization of the different stages and timescales of the large‐scale SASM and is highly correlated with the local operational index, the monsoon onset over Kerala. The CHP‐based onset and withdrawal dates, which capture the expected seasonal transitions in rainfall and winds, correspond with regime changes in the SASM moisture budget between negative and positive net precipitation. Climatological composites reveal that the seasonal transitions in SASM sector mean precipitation and circulation closely resemble those of the zonal mean Hadley circulation. The CHP index at grid points within the SASM domain yields a robust definition of local onset and withdrawal dates, which are well correlated with the large‐scale index on interannual timescales, providing insight into the regional variability of the SASM.
Decadal variation and trends in subsurface salinity from 1960 to 2012 in the northern South China Sea
Authors: Zeng Lili , Wang Dongxiao , Xiu Peng , Shu Yeqiang , Wang Qiang , Chen Ju 
Published: November 2016

AbstractObservations suggest that subsurface waters in the northern South China Sea exhibited substantial low‐frequency variability, with a striking decadal change in the southern limit of the 34.6 practical salinity unit (psu) isohaline. Long‐term freshening of the subsurface waters, started in 1960, was followed by salinification from 1975, and freshening occurred again from 1993 to 2012. The linear trends were −0.0076, 0.0100, and −0.0078 psu/yr, respectively. An analysis of the subsurface salinity budget reveals that the main underlying contributors to subsurface salinity are horizontal advection and vertical entrainment. In particular, advection driven by the Luzon Strait transport and vertical entrainment from the mixed layer are the key factors controlling variations on subsurface salinity. Diagnosis of the salinity budget further suggests that entrainment from the mixed layer played a more important role in the freshening periods than in the salinifying period.
TLEs and early VLF events: Simulating the important impact of transmitter‐disturbance‐receiver geometry
Authors: NaitAmor S. , Ghalila H. , Cohen M. B. 
Published: November 2016

AbstractEarly very low frequency (VLF) events are perturbations to subionospherically propagating VLF radio transmitters which sometimes occur when lightning activity is near the transmitter‐receiver path. They are often correlated to Transient Luminous Events (TLEs). Recent analysis have focused on a new type of early events whose recovery time persists for many minutes, called LOng Recovery Events (LOREs). The underlying cause of these events is still unclear. Curiously, LOREs sometimes appear on only one path, while the same event observed on a different transmitter‐receiver path does not indicate a LORE. In this paper we observe and simulate two cases of early signal perturbations: The first is a typical early VLF event, and the second is a LORE. Both were recorded by two AWESOME VLF receivers in North Africa on 12 December 2009, during the EuroSprite campaign. We combine observations with theoretical modeling to infer the electron density change that most closely reproduces the observed perturbation. Our results explain the cases where LOREs are detected on only one path as resulting from transmitter‐receiver geometry significantly which impacts the modal content and therefore the observed VLF recovery time.
Predicting the amplitude and hemispheric asymmetry of solar cycle 25 with surface flux transport
Authors: Hathaway David H. , Upton Lisa A. 
Published: November 2016

AbstractEvidence strongly indicates that the strength of the Sun's polar fields near the time of a sunspot cycle minimum determines the strength of the following solar activity cycle. We use our Advective Flux Transport code, with flows well constrained by observations, to simulate the evolution of the Sun's polar magnetic fields from early 2016 to the end of 2019—near the expected time of cycle 24/25 minimum. We run a series of simulations in which the uncertain conditions (convective motion details, active region tilt, and meridional flow profile) are varied within expected ranges. We find that the average strength of the polar fields near the end of cycle 24 will be similar to that measured near the end of cycle 23, indicating that cycle 25 will be similar in strength to the current cycle. In all cases the polar fields are asymmetric with fields in the south stronger than those in the north. This asymmetry would be more pronounced if not for the predicted weakening of the southern polar fields in late 2016 and through 2017. After just 4 years of simulation the variability across our ensemble indicates an accumulated uncertainty of about 15%. This accumulated uncertainty arises from stochastic variations in the convective motion details, the active region tilt, and changes in the meridional flow profile. These variations limit the ultimate predictability of the solar cycle.
Hall effect control of magnetotail dawn‐dusk asymmetry: A three‐dimensional global hybrid simulation

Published: November 2016

AbstractMagnetotail reconnection and related phenomena (e.g., flux ropes, dipolarizing flux bundles, flow bursts, and particle injections) occur more frequently on the duskside than on the dawnside. Because this asymmetry can directly result in dawn‐dusk asymmetric space weather effects, uncovering its physical origin is important for better understanding, modeling, and prediction of the space weather phenomena. However, the cause of this pervasive asymmetry is unclear. Using three‐dimensional global hybrid simulations, we demonstrate that the Hall physics in the magnetotail current sheet is responsible for the asymmetry. The current sheet thins progressively under enhanced global convection; when its thickness reaches ion kinetic scales, some ions are decoupled from the magnetized electrons (the Hall effect). The resultant Hall electric field Ez is directed toward the neutral plane. The Hall effect is stronger (grows faster) on the duskside; i.e., more ions become unmagnetized there and do not comove with the magnetized dawnward Ez × Bx drifting electrons, thus creating a larger additional cross‐tail current intensity jy (in addition to the diamagnetic current) on the duskside, compared to the dawnside. The stronger Hall effect strength on the duskside is controlled by the higher ion temperature, thinner current sheet, and smaller normal magnetic field Bz there. These asymmetric current sheet properties are in turn controlled by two competing processes that correspond to the Hall effect: (1) the dawnward E × B drift of the magnetic flux and magnetized ions and electrons and (2) the transient motion of the unmagnetized ions which do not execute E × B drift.

AbstractSpatial and high‐time‐resolution properties of the velocities, magnetic field, and 3‐D electric field within plasma turbulence are examined observationally using data from the Magnetospheric Multiscale mission. Observations from a Kelvin‐Helmholtz instability (KHI) on the Earth's magnetopause are examined, which both provides a series of repeatable intervals to analyze, giving better statistics, and provides a first look at the properties of turbulence in the KHI. For the first time direct observations of both the high‐frequency ion and electron velocity spectra are examined, showing differing ion and electron behavior at kinetic scales. Temporal spectra exhibit power law behavior with changes in slope near the ion gyrofrequency and lower hybrid frequency. The work provides the first observational evidence for turbulent intermittency and anisotropy consistent with quasi two‐dimensional turbulence in association with the KHI. The behavior of kinetic‐scale intermittency is found to have differences from previous studies of solar wind turbulence, leading to novel insights on the turbulent dynamics in the KHI.

AbstractUpper tropospheric outflow was examined during the life cycles of two hurricanes in the eastern and central Pacific Ocean. The outflow from Hurricanes Iselle and Julio was evaluated by using analyses from the Navy Global Environmental Model, which were very highly correlated with satellite atmospheric motion vector and NOAA G‐IV dropsonde observations. A synoptic overview provided the environmental context for the life cycles of both tropical cyclones (TCs). Then, the outflow magnitude and direction within 6 radial degrees of each TC center were analyzed in relation to TC intensity, the synoptic environment, and inertial stability, with the following results. In both Iselle and Julio, the azimuthally averaged outflow magnitude was maximized initially more than 4 radial degrees from the center, and that maximum moved steadily inward during a 4 day intensification period and reached a position radially inward of 2° within 6 h of the time of maximum surface winds. Furthermore, the direction of the outflow in both TCs was related to the evolution of the large‐scale upper tropospheric flow pattern, particularly the phasing of subtropical jet ridges and troughs moving eastward north of both TCs. Finally, outflow channels were consistently bounded by regions of lowest (highest) values of inertial stability counterclockwise (clockwise) from the maximum outflow azimuth, a pattern that persisted throughout the life cycles of both storms regardless of intensity, environmental flow, and the number and direction of outflow channels present.

Polymer ferroelectret based on polypropylene foam: Piezoelectric properties improvement using post‐processing thermomechanical treatment

Published: November 2016

ABSTRACTIn this work, the effect of post‐processing parameters (time, temperature, and pressure) on the morphology as well as mechanical and piezoelectric properties of foamed polypropylene (PP) films were studied. Two different post‐processing methods, based on the saturation of a foamed film with supercritical nitrogen (N2), were used to obtain an optimized eye‐like cellular structure with a high cell aspect ratio (AR). The results showed that, when the PP‐foamed films were exposed to a gradual temperature and pressure increase, an appropriate cellular structure with high AR value (about 6.6) was obtained. This structure led to a high quasi‐static piezoelectric d33 coefficient of 800 pC/N (45% higher than for untreated ones) indicating the importance of the post‐processing treatment on the piezoelectric behavior of these films. On the other hand, when the treatment was performed in steps, cell morphology changed from an eye‐like to a less elongated shape, resulting in lower d33 values. The tensile characterization showed that higher cell aspect ratio led to lower Young's modulus, which is suitable to achieve higher piezoelectric properties. Finally, dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) was used as a simple method to correlate mechanical and piezoelectric properties of cellular PP. This was done via the ratio of the storage moduli in the longitudinal and transverse directions, which is directly related to film anisotropy (AR value) and thus to the piezoelectric behavior. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

BackgroundNeural tube defects (NTDs) are one of the commonest birth defects. There was paucity of community‐based data on occurrence of NTDs in India, especially from rural parts of the country. Against this background, the current study was carried out with main objectives to determine the prevalence of NTDs and its specific types (anencephaly, spina bifida and encephalocele) in a rural community setting over the time period 2001 to 2014.MethodsThis was a community‐based cross‐sectional study carried out in 28 villages of Ballabgarh Tehsil of Faridabad district in north India (population ∼ 96,000). A household survey was undertaken by trained multi‐purpose workers who enquired ever‐married women about history of conception with outcome as NTD during the study period. The probable case of NTD was determined using a colored pictorial card with photographs of different types of NTDs. These cases were confirmed by doctors.ResultsA total of 26,946 live births occurred during the years 2001 to 2014. A total of 140 confirmed cases of NTDs were identified. The live birth prevalence of NTDs was 24.1 per 10,000 live births (95% confidence interval, 18.8–30.6). The birth prevalence of NTDs for the years 2008 to 2014 was 50.8 (95% confidence interval, 39.9–63.8) per 10,000 live and stillbirths. The most common type of NTD was found to be spina bifida followed by anencephaly and encephalocele.ConclusionWe found high prevalence of NTDs in rural community settings from north India for years 2001 to 2014.Birth Defects Research 109:203–210, 2017.© 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Published: November 2016

AbstractUrethane acrylate (UA) was used to prepare carbon quantum dots (C‐dots) luminescent membranes and the resultants were examined with FT‐IR, mechanical strength, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and quantum yields (QYs). FT‐IR results showed the polyurethane acrylate (PUA) prepolymer –C = C‐vibration at 1101 cm−1 disappeared but there was strong vibration at1687cm−1which was contributed from the–C = O groups in cross‐linking PUA. Mechanical strength results showed that the different quantity of C‐dots loadings and UV‐curing time affect the strength. SEM observations on the cross‐sections of the membranes are uniform and have no structural defects, which prove that the C‐dots are compatible with the water‐soluble PUA resin. The C‐dot loading was increased from 0 to 1 g, the maximum tensile stress was nearly 2.67 MPa, but the tensile strain was decreased from 23.4% to 15.1% and 7.2% respectively. QYs results showed that the C‐dots in the membrane were stable after 120 h continuous irradiation. Therefore, the C‐dots photoluminescent film is the promising material for the flexible devices in the future applications.
(η5‐Pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)iridium Complex Catalyzed Imine Reductions Utilizing the Biomimetic 1,4‐NAD(P)H Cofactor and N‐Benzyl‐1,4‐dihydronicotinamide as the Hydride‐Transfer Agent

Published: November 2016

AbstractThe interaction between synthetic organometallic complexes and metabolic cofactors has proven to be a newly emerging topic in bioorganometallic chemistry. Thus, the first cationic Cp*Ir‐catalyzed (Cp*=η5‐pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) imine reduction in neutral buffered aqueous medium was examined. The reaction was found to proceed through hydride transfer from NADH as the hydride source at room temperature in air. Cationic Cp*Ir complexes proved to be the most efficient catalysts for this transformation. We also highlighted that the choice of the proton source was essential. The method was subsequently applied to cyclic and noncyclic imines. Eventually, the concept was extended to the reductive alkylation of one amine.
