广角地震波场特征分析

地震宽角反射/折射方法主要是利用壳内与上地幔顶层的广角反射信息重建地壳上地幔结构,是研究地壳上地幔结构构造最有效的方法之一.同时,宽角地震接收到的超临界角的广角反射信息,相对于临界角之内的反射信息必定存在着随偏移距变化的时移现象.本文通过构建地壳模型采用交错网格有限差分方法合成广角地震记录,并从理论地震图上分别用传统射线方法和考虑时移影响的方法标定了震相走时,分析了广角反射的地震波场特征,揭示了地震资料中的广角效应,继而分析了广角信息存在对接收波场的响应影响.

人工源宽角地震实验的谱元法模拟和逆时偏移成像方法研究

人工源宽角反射(折射)地震资料具有偏移距较大、信噪比较低等特点,通常用于地震波走时反演重建地壳速度结构。逆时偏移成像方法作为勘探地震学领域获取地下构造形态的有效手段之一,可以有效弥补走时反演方法的不足。本文针对大偏移距宽角反射(折射)地震实验,利用四边形网格谱元法进行波场模拟,结合了有限元法的灵活性和谱方法的指数收敛性,高效且高精度获取模型合成地震记录,后采用逆时偏移成像方法将合成地震记录偏移归位,获取地壳几何结构,验证了逆时偏移成像方法在宽角地震资料处理及结果解释中的适用性,为后期实际地震资料的偏移成像提供了理论依据和支持。

银川盆地岩石圈结构——长观测距宽角反射与折射剖面结果

利用2014年完成的穿过银川盆地人工源宽角反射与折射剖面的3炮长观测距资料,采用基于地震波走时反演方法的Rayinvr算法得到了研究区地壳和上地幔的速度结构.结果表明:研究区地壳厚度为42—48 km,莫霍面沿剖面展布形态呈现出东西两侧浅、中部较深的特征,莫霍面最深的区段位于贺兰山下方. P波速度沿剖面随着深度的增加呈正梯度增大,然而在深度约为90—103 km的岩石圈地幔中,识别出两组较明显的反射界面,两组界面之间并未发现P波速度随深度而显著增加,表明研究区下方存在与地球平均模型中速度随深度增加而增大不相符的速度结构,推测银川盆地下方岩石圈与软流圈之间可能存在速度过渡带.      

宽角反射地震波走时模拟的双重网格法

在研究地壳结构的人工源宽角反射地震资料解释中,常规宽角反射波走时和射线路径计算大都假定地壳模型为层状块状均匀介质.为了逼近实际地壳结构模型,要求模型尺度较大,为了提高地震资料解释的可靠性,须减小模型离散单元的尺寸,但同时计算量大大增加,使资料解释的效率较低.为此,本文尝试同时提高宽角反射地震资料解释效率和可靠性的方法,即使用双重网格计算宽角反射地震波走时和射线路径的最小走时树方法.双重网格法在均匀介质内部仅计算大网格节点,在速度变化点、震源点和检波点区域,同时计算小网格节点;在界面边界点使用比介质内部节点更大的子波传播区域.模型计算结果表明,对于大尺度的层状块状均匀介质模型,在保证精度的条件下,本文所提出的双重网格射线追踪方法的计算效率比单网格方法显著提高.     

巴拿马盆地深海钻井区的速度结构——薄洋壳的证据

我们对巴拿马盆地深海钻井计划504B场区广角反射/折射数据进行了分析.目前,最深的钻孔已钻入大洋地壳1.288 km.数据用一个1785立方英寸的气枪台阵和固定增益的声纳浮标接收器采集,资料包括沿三个不同方位放炮的四条相交的地震剖面,同时采集的垂直入射和多道地震反射数据.最大距离远达30km内的观测P波、S波为中地壳、下地壳的速度结构以及总的地壳厚度提供了约束.比较所有四个剖面上P、S波走时与振幅,揭示了用反射合成地震图方法进行模拟的重要的相似性.正演结果表明,与标准的大洋速度模型相反,一个能较好地解释观测数据的速度深度剖面的特征是,中地壳具有高速度梯度(达0.6 km/s/km);近莫霍面上方有一个1.8km厚的低速带(V_r=7.1—6.7km/s);总地壳厚度只有5 km.中地壳高速度梯度的解释受到16—19 km内P波振幅聚焦的约束.虽然S波波至不如P波波至发育得那么好,但它也表现出相似的聚焦性.总的地壳厚度要受到有关P波、16—28 km内观测到的广角反射以及地壳走时为1.4—1.5 s的MCS反射信号综合解释的约束.虽然这些信号之间没有直接的关系,但其走时与两者具有共同的起因的假设是一致的.广角反射的振幅模拟表明:这些信号都在莫霍面产生.

Time of concentration: a paradox in modern hydrology

Abstract

The time of concentration is a primary parameter for a variety of modern hydrological models adopted in professional and scientific communities. Nevertheless, a universally accepted working definition of this parameter is currently lacking and several definitions can be found in the technical literature along with related estimation procedures. This study brings to light the inherent variability of these definitions through the empirical analysis of four small basins. These case studies demonstrate that available approaches for the estimation of the time of concentration may yield numerical predictions that differ from each other by up to 500%.

Review of methods used to estimate catchment response time for the purpose of peak discharge estimation

Abstract

Large errors in peak discharge estimates at catchment scales can be ascribed to errors in the estimation of catchment response time. The time parameters most frequently used to express catchment response time are the time of concentration (T_C), lag time (T_L) and time to peak (T_P). This paper presents a review of the time parameter estimation methods used internationally, with selected comparisons in medium and large catchments in the C5 secondary drainage region in South Africa. The comparison of different time parameter estimation methods with recommended methods used in South Africa confirmed that the application of empirical methods, with no local correction factors, beyond their original developmental regions, must be avoided. The T_C is recognized as the most frequently used time parameter, followed by T_L. In acknowledging this, as well as the basic assumptions of the approximations T_L = 0.6T_C and T_C ≈ T_P, along with the similarity between the definitions of the T_P and the conceptual T_C, it was evident that the latter two time parameters should be further investigated to develop an alternative approach to estimate representative response times that result in improved estimates of peak discharge at these catchment scales.

Investigation of hydraulics transport time scales within the Arvand River estuary,Iran

Transport time scales are key parameters for understanding the hydrodynamic and biochemical processes within estuaries. In this study, the flushing and residence times within the Arvand River estuary have been estimated using a two‐dimensional hydrodynamic model called CE‐QUAL‐W2. The model has been calibrated and verified by two different sets of field data and using the k‐ε vertical eddy diffusivity scheme. Flushing time has been estimated using different methods such as the tidal prism and fraction of freshwater methods. Moreover, residence times have been investigated using pulse residence time, estuarine residence time and remnant function approaches. The results have shown that different methods yield different time scales, and freshwater inflow has the greatest impact upon estimation of residence time, whereas tidal circulation hardly contributes to residence time at all. It has also been shown that the neap‐spring circulation and start phase of simulations have negligible effects on the Arvand's time scales. The investigation of bathymetry showed that two sills of the estuary tend to significantly increase residence time. Understanding the applicability of these time scales and their estimation approaches helps us to evaluate the water quality management of estuaries. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

The relationships between earthquakes and positions of the sun and moon (II)

This paper deals with the distributive characteristics of the occurrence time of earthquakes with respect to the aftershock sequences of strong earthquakes. The distribution of lunar and solar local hour angles at the time of commencement of moderate and strong aftershocks indicates that the time of commencement of moderate and strong aftershocks is modulated by the positions of the sun and moon and then the earthquake-restrained time zones exists also. In this paper the differences of earthquake-restrained time zones between the preshock sequences and the aftershock sequences are compared, and the possible mechanism is analyzed preliminarily. And the possible maximum scope of accuracy in predicting the occurrence time of an earthquake is determined as well. This paper is supported by the Eight Five Year Target of the State Seismological Bureau, China.     

Performance of a real‐time pseudodynamic test system considering nonlinear structural response

This paper presents the implementation details of a real‐time pseudodynamic test system that adopts an implicit time integration scheme. The basic configuration of the system is presented. Physical tests were conducted to evaluate the performance of the system and validate a theoretical system model that incorporates the dynamics and nonlinearity of a test structure and servo‐hydraulic actuators, control algorithm, actuator delay compensation methods, and the flexibility of an actuator reaction system. The robustness and accuracy of the computational scheme under displacement control errors and severe structural softening are examined with numerical simulations using the model. Different delay compensation schemes have been implemented and compared. One of the schemes also compensates for the deformation of an actuator reaction system. It has been shown that the test method is able to attain a good performance in terms of numerical stability and accuracy. However, it has been shown that test results obtained with this method can underestimate the inelastic displacement drift when severe strain softening develops in a test structure. This can be attributed to the fact that the numerical damping effect introduced by convergence errors becomes more significant as a structure softens. In a real‐time test, a significant portion of the convergence errors is caused by the time delay in actuator response. Hence, a softening structure demands higher precision in displacement control.

Evaluation of numerical time‐integration schemes for real‐time hybrid testing

We present a comparison of methods for the analysis of the numerical substructure in a real‐time hybrid test. A multi‐tasking strategy is described, which satisfies the various control and numerical requirements. Within this strategy a variety of explicit and implicit time‐integration algorithms have been evaluated. Fully implicit schemes can be used in fast hybrid testing via a digital sub‐step feedback technique, but it is shown that this approach requires a large amount of computation at each sub‐step, making real‐time execution difficult for all but the simplest models. In cases where the numerical substructure poses no harsh stability condition, it is shown that the Newmark explicit method offers advantages of speed and accuracy. Where the stability limit of an explicit method cannot be met, one of the several alternatives may be used, such as Chang's modified Newmark scheme or the α‐operator splitting method. Appropriate methods of actuator delay compensation are also discussed. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
