We propose a novel method of 4D anti-aliasing and anti-leakage Fourier transform using a cube-removal strategy to address the combination of irregular sampling and aliasing in high-dimensional seismic data. We compute a weighting function by stacking the spectrum along the radial lines, apply this function to suppress the aliasing energy, and then iteratively pick the dominant amplitude cube to construct the Fourier spectrum. The proposed method is very efficient due to a cube removal strategy for accelerating the convergence of Fourier reconstruction and a well-designed parallel architecture using CPU/GPU collaborative computing. To better fill the acquisition holes from 5D seismic data and meanwhile considering the GPU memory limitation, we developed the anti-aliasing and anti-leakage Fourier transform method in 4D with the remaining spatial dimension looped. The entire workflow is composed of three steps: data splitting, 4D regularization, and data merging. Numerical tests on both synthetic and field data examples demonstrate the high efficiency and effectiveness of our approach.展开更多

However, the detection of certain aspects, such as the evolution process of the liquid cone and the physical quantities at the cone apex, proves challenging due to the minute size of the needle tip and the vacuum environment in which they operate. Consequently, this paper introduces a computational fluid dynamics(CFD) model to gain insight into the formation process of the liquid cone on the tip apex of indium FEEP. The CFD model is based on electrohydrodynamic(EHD) equations and the volume of fluid(VOF) method. The entire cone formation process can be divided into three stages, and the time-dependent characteristics of the physical quantities at the cone apex are investigated. The influences of film thickness, apex radius size and applied voltage are compared.The results indicate a gradual increase in the values of electrostatic stress and surface tension stress at the cone apex over an initial period, followed by a rapid escalation within a short duration.Apex configurations featuring a small radius, thick film and high voltage exhibit a propensity for liquid cone formation, and the cone growth time decreases as the film thickness increases.Moreover, some unstable behavior is observed during the cone formation process.展开更多
