Influence of Stress on Void Ratios of Compacted Crushed Rock Masses in Coal Mine Gobs

The transfer and evolution of stress among rock blocks directly change the void ratios of crushed rock masses and affect the flow of methane in coal mine gobs. In this study, a Lagrange framework and a discrete element method, along with the soft-sphere model and EDEM numerical software, were used. The compaction processes of rock blocks with diameters of 0.6, 0.8, and 1.0 m were simulated with the degrees of compression set at 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25%. This study examines the influence of stress on void ratios of compacted crushed rock masses in coal mine gobs. The results showed that stress was mainly transmitted downward through strong force chains. As the degree of compression increased, the strong force chains extended downward, which resulted in the stress at the upper rock mass to become significantly higher than that at the lower rock mass. It was determined that under different degrees of compression, the rock mass of coal mine gobs could be divided, from the bottom to the top, into a lower insufficient compression zone (ICZ) and an upper sufficient compression zone (SCZ). From bottom to top, the void ratios in the ICZ sharply decreased and those in the SCZ slowly decreased. Void ratios in the ICZ were 1.2–1.7 times higher than those in the SCZ.

Numerical prediction of blast‐induced stress wave from large‐scale underground explosion

This paper presents a numerical model for predicting the dynamic response of rock mass subjected to large‐scale underground explosion. The model is calibrated against data obtained from large‐scale field tests. The Hugoniot equation of state for rock mass is adopted to calculate the pressure as a function of mass density. A piecewise linear Drucker–Prager strength criterion including the strain rate effect is employed to model the rock mass behaviour subjected to blast loading. A double scalar damage model accounting for both the compression and tension damage is introduced to simulate the damage zone around the charge chamber caused by blast loading. The model is incorporated into Autodyn3D through its user subroutines. The numerical model is then used to predict the dynamic response of rock mass, in terms of the peak particle velocity (PPV) and peak particle acceleration (PPA) attenuation laws, the damage zone, the particle velocity time histories and their frequency contents for large‐scale underground explosion tests. The computed results are found in good agreement with the field measured data; hence, the proposed model is proven to be adequate for simulating the dynamic response of rock mass subjected to large‐scale underground explosion. Extended numerical analyses indicate that, apart from the charge loading density, the stress wave intensity is also affected, but to a lesser extent, by the charge weight and the charge chamber geometry for large‐scale underground explosions.

蒙古塔木察格坳陷白垩系震积岩特征及其地质意义

通过岩芯观察,结合构造背景研究,在蒙古塔木察格坳陷白垩纪地层中识别出震积岩。震积岩的主要标志有微同沉积断裂、同沉积塑性变形构造、液化脉、震积枕状及伴生构造等。通过对塔219 井、塔1943 井等岩芯的系统观察,建立了蒙古塔木察格坳陷白垩系震积岩的垂向序列。震积岩的垂向序列自下而上依次为砂岩脉（砂火山）层段、水塑性褶皱变形层段、斧式构造层段、滑塌构造层段、阶梯状微断层和震裂缝层段、准原地沉积湖泊津浪丘状层理和内碎屑角砾岩层段、异地沉积震浊积岩层段,对应于地震由强变弱的一个变化过程。震积岩的发现具有重要的研究意义,有助于分析盆地边界断裂的强烈活动时期。     

鄂尔多斯盆地东缘煤储层微孔隙结构特征及其影响因素

在对鄂尔多斯盆地东缘58套采自不同层位不同地域煤样显微组分测试和低温液氮比表面测试的基础上,从比表面积、吸附曲线形态、阶段孔径结构分布、阶段孔径比表面积贡献、FHH分形特征几个方面刻画了煤储层微孔隙特征。同时,就“孔比表面积—孔隙结构—煤物质组成与化学结构”这一因果链,分析了鄂尔多斯盆地东缘煤微孔隙特征与煤变质程度、煤岩显微组分以及矿物组分与类型的关系。研究发现,Ro在0.60%~1.91%范围内,比表面积及FHH分形分维数先明显降低,Ro至1.3%后又略有回升,同时吸附回线“滞后环”及分形尺度对应的压力范围明显减小,孔径3~4 nm“墨水瓶”型孔明显减少乃至消失,并成为比表面积减少的主要贡献者。在相似煤级条件下,惰质组分较镜质组分有更多的比表面积贡献。粘土矿物组分含量>10%时,孔径3~4 nm“墨水瓶”型孔对比表面贡献明显,且随煤级增高影响作用相对加大。

广州大气降水中δ^18O与气象要素及季风活动之间的关系

根据2004年5月至2005年6月广州日大气降水中δ18O资料和GNIP提供的广州、香港多年月平均降水中δ D、δ18O资料, 研究了天气尺度下广州大气降水中δ18O与降水量、水汽压、气温和露点温度等气象要素之间的关系, 并就季风活动对本地降水中δ18O的影响作了初步分析. 结果表明: 在天气尺度下, 广州大气降水中δ18O与降水量、水汽压、气温和露点温度均存在显著的负相关关系, 同温度露点差存在显著的正相关关系, 表明广州大气降水中δ18O变化具有显著的降水量效应和湿度效应. 夏季风期间季风活动对天气尺度下降水中δ18O的变化具有显著影响, 使得天气尺度下大气降水中δ18O变化有时并不遵循降水量效应. 从多年气候平均状况来看, 广州、香港降水中δ18O的季节变化同亚洲夏季风的爆发和推进演变过程较为相似, 在夏季风活跃的时期, 大气降水中δ18O值也较低, 反映了季风降水再循环活动对降水中稳定同位素含量具有显著影响.     

阜新—朝阳高速公路段黄土三轴剪切特性研究

对取自阜新—朝阳高速公路段的黄土进行了14C测年、颗粒分析、湿陷及常规试验等,对比分析了其基本特性,通过三轴剪切试验,获得了不同含水量的黄土剪切孔压、固结孔压、抗剪强度及剪切变形的变化特征。分析认为,辽西黄土此类特性由黄土的物质成分和结构特征所决定。对不同含水量的黄土剪切变形曲线建立力学模型,拟合结果表明,对于脆性破坏的应变软化曲线,刘祖典模型描述的效果并不理想,而文中建议的经验模型则较为适合。     

中韩无居民海岛及海岸带发展管理现状比较研究

海岛和海岸带是国土资源的重要组成部分，提升其综合管理水平对促进沿海地区社会经济和海洋可持续发展具有重要意义。文章以中韩建交30周年和“联合国海洋科学促进可持续发展十年”为契机，通过对中韩无居民海岛及海岸带发展管理现状进行比较研究，探讨中韩两国在发展管理方面的异同和存在的问题。研究结果表明：在无居民海岛方面，中国以《中华人民共和国海岛保护法》为基本制度框架建立管理体系，韩国通过综合立法建立管理体系，海岛不合理利用是两国存在的共性问题；韩国重视无居民海岛的宣传，中国更加重视无居民海岛的分类。在海岸带方面，两国均采取综合管理的方式，但在实施程序上采用不同的方式，韩国由中央政府主导并交由地方政府实施综合管理，中国在综合管理体制下交由地方政府自行主导。基于研究结论，提出有针对性的管理措施和建议，促进两国海洋经济的可持续发展。
