Estimation of the determination error of the solid-phase density of disperse soils by different methods

The accuracy and reliability of the determination of the solid-phase density (SPD) for disperse soils by the standard method (State Standard 5180-84) and by the Kalachev rapid method were estimated. The causes for discrepancies in the SPD determination in clay soils between the two different methods were determined for the cases of similar and different preanalysis preparations. A justified calculation procedure for the determination of the bound-water density in clay soils, which is adequate for the nature of complex physical phenomenon, was developed. Corrections for the bound-water density in clay polymineral soils with different dispersion properties are suggested.     

土体导热系数的评价与计算

土体的导热系数是土木工程热工计算的重要参数.土体的多孔介质性质决定了土体的导热性质与干土、气体及孔隙充填物(水)的含量有密切关系.实验测试结果表明,土体不论处于冻结还是融化状态,其导热系数均随干容重以及含水量的增加而增大.采用土体的物理性质指标,对土体的导热系数进行了分析,给出土体导热系数较为方便的计算方法,有利于工程设计计算参数的选取,同时与实验测试结果对比,有较好的吻合度.     

Report of the International Association of Geoanalysts on the Certification of Penrhyn Slate, OU-6

The International Association of Geoanalysts (IAG) has certified a slate sample, OU-6, for twelve major and minor constituents, as well as thirty-five trace elements through an interlaboratory programme conducted in close compliance with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) Guide 35 (1989). Laboratories were qualified for participation in the certification programme, based on their performance in the prior analysis of OU-6 as a proficiency test material. Thirty laboratories provided data for the certification, though not for each constituent that was certified. Certification criteria included a means of establishing traceability for the certification data, generally through concurrent analysis of the existing Geological Survey of Japan reference material JSl-1, agreement of results between laboratories and methods, and a minimum of data rejection (4% rejection rate for OU-6 data and 6% for JSl-1 data), preferably for well-understood technical reasons only. Information values are provided for an additional eight constituents where certification criteria were not met. Uncertainties developed in accordance with the "Guide on Uncertainty in Measurement" (Eurachem 2000) and representing the 95% confidence interval of the certified and information values are reported for all fifty five constituents. The material is currently available in 40 g units for distribution by the IAG. Supply is anticipated to last about ten years.     

Potential of High-Resolution Satellite Data in the Context of Vulnerability of Buildings

High-resolution space-borne remote sensing data are investigated for their potential to extract relevant parameters for a vulnerability analysis of buildings in European countries. For an evaluation of large earthquake scenarios, the number of parameters in models for vulnerability is reduced to a minimum of relevant information such as the type of building (age, material, number of storeys) and the geological and spatial context. Building-related parameters can be derived from remote sensing data either directly (e.g. height) or indirectly based on the recognition of the urban structure type in which the buildings are located. With the potential of a fully- or semi-automatic inventory of the buildings and their parameters, high-resolution satellite data and techniques for their processing are a useful supporting tool for the assessment of vulnerability.     

Some models for the rate of crystallization of garnet in metamorphic rocks

Information on the form of the equation for the rate of crystallization of garnet in metamorphic rocks may be obtained by combining an expression for the rate of crystal growth, obtained from data on compositional zoning, with an expression for the rate of nucleation, obtained from the crystal-size distribution.Three models for the rate of crystal growth and four for the rate of nucleation are formulated, and these, in different combinations, give rise to ten models for the rate of crystallization. Considerable variation in the form of the growth and nucleation equations produces a relatively small variation in the form of the equation for the rate of crystallization. In the favoured crystallization models, the volume of garnet produced in unit volume of rock is a function of time raised to the power m, where m lies between 3.5 and 5.

Statistics of ultimate strain of the earth's crust and probability of earthquake occurrence

Statistics of ultimate strain are improved by adding new data to the previous ones. The critical value for horizontal strain seems somewhat larger than that for vertical strain, although parameters of a Weibull distribution, which is customarily used for quality-control research and which fits in very well with the present statistics, are calculated for the whole set of data making no distinction between the two subsets because of their scantiness.On the basis of the parameters thus determined and strain rates obtained from geodetic data, probabilities of earthquake occurrence in a few regions in Japan and the U.S. are estimated. Probability of having an earthquake in an area southwest of Tokyo, where we had the 1923 earthquake (magnitude 7.9), at this time amounts to 20%, a value almost the same as that obtained in the previous papers. The probability will reach some 50 and 90% by 2000 and 2050, respectively. In the North Izu district, where an earthquake of magnitude 7.0 occurred in 1930, a shearing crustal motion is going on to an extent for which we have a probability for an earthquake recurring there in these 40 years amounting to 40%. By the end of this century, it will become as high as 85%.Similar estimates of such cumulative probabilities are made for the San Francisco and Fort Tejon regions, where great earthquakes occurred respectively in 1906 and 1857, yielding values of 30 and 80% at present. These probabilities are tentative because of possible errors in evaluating geodetic measurements and uncertainty of the ultimate crustal strain assigned to the San Andreas fault.

The application of artificial clays in the control of toxic pollutants

One of the major causes for concern in the landfilling of heavy metal sludges is the potential for acid leaching. In this paper the CHEMFIX waste-form is described, which, because of its low permeability, high buffer capacity against acid leaching and its claylike structure and properties, can be used to stabilise heavy metal sludges for landfilling.

A simple model is developed and used to investigate the values of the various parameters involved in the product design. It is shown that for barrier lifetimes orders of magnitude in excess of those expected for conventional cut-off walls and liners should be possible.     

考虑断裂韧性影响的页岩气储层可压性评价方法

可压性是衡量页岩气储层对压裂改造响应程度的重要依据,目前针对页岩可压性常用脆性指数对其进行评价。但在实际运用中存在脆性指数相近,实际压裂效果却差别甚远的问题。为了弥补利用脆性指数进行页岩气储层可压性评价的不足,在考虑断裂韧性影响的基础上引入临界机械能释放率,综合了Ⅰ型、Ⅱ型断裂韧性对岩石裂缝发育的影响,并定义平均临界机械能释放率。最后结合平均临界机械能释放率和脆性指数,初步建立了以裂缝发育指数为量化指标的页岩气储层可压性评价模型。基于焦石坝龙马溪组焦页48-2HF井测井资料,计算出其弹性模量、泊松比、Ⅰ型及Ⅱ型断裂韧性,并根据构建的裂缝发育指数模型,得出页岩储层可压性随埋深的变化关系。结合现场微震资料,验证了该模型能有效预测页岩气储层可压性随埋深的变化趋势,为页岩气实际开发过程中优选页岩储层压裂段提供可靠方法。

Re-evaluations of seismic hazard of Iraq

In recent years, Iraq has experienced an increase in seismic activity, especially, near the east boundary with Iran. Previous studies present their results in terms of PGA and for return periods of 500 years and less, and other studies not continued to include the whole PSHA process whereas some recent studies continued to include the whole PSHA process using earthquakes data till 2009 including dependent events. This study includes two main stages, the first is collecting the earthquakes records including the recent events till the end of March 2016 and applying data processing to get the net catalog to independent events. The second stage is applying the steps of PSHA method. Matlab programs have been built to execute these two stages and to convert the results of PSHA computations into contours of 5% damping PGA and spectral accelerations at 0.2 and 1.0 s for a return period of 2475 years, and for rock sites. Also, spectral acceleration against period has been presented for main cities. Also, the PGA map, for a return period of 475 years, has been plotted and then prepared together with similar maps of neighbor countries in one map for comparison. In general, this comparison indicates the similarity in behavior but, the values reveal a relative agreement and they are between Turkish and Iranian values.

The temporal change of driving factors during the course of land desertification in arid region of North China: the case of Minqin County

Taking the key research area in the arid region of North China—Minqin County—as a case, this paper analyzes the main factors impacting land desertification. Based on factor analysis method and the collection of data in the last 50 years, this paper researches the spatial changes of driving factors during the course of land desertification in Minqin, Gansu Province. The results of factor analysis indicate that the driving force of human factor on land desertification accounted for 56.33% in 1956–2004 and for 66.19% in 1981–2004, the driving force of nature factor on land desertification accounted for 11.29% in 1956–2004 and 8.11% in 1981–2004, and the synthesis of driving forces of human and natural factors accounted for 11.19% in 1956–2004 and for 14.88% in 1981–2004. This indicated that human driving force on land desertification was increasing in Minqin County gradually.     

A mechanism of shape-transformation of quartz inclusions in albite of regional metamorphic rocks

The process of shape-transformation of quartz inclusions from polyhedral to spherical grains in albite single crystals during metamorphism is mainly controlled by the grain boundary diffusion of oxygen along the quartz/albite interface to reduce the interfacial free energy. The rate of the process, which is represented by the growth rate of the curvature of the edge surface of the grain, depends significantly on temperature and on the grain size of the quartz inclusion. The relations between temperature, T, the time, t_r, and the critical radius, R_c, which is equal to the radius of maximum spherical grains, are given by log R_c = −0.11E_b/RT + 0.25log t_r + C, in which E_b is the activation energy of the grain boundary diffusion of oxygen along the quartz/albite interface and C is a material constant.

The mean critical radius of spherical quartz inclusions in albite is 5 μm for the upper chlorite zone and garnet zone, 10 μm for the lower biotite zone, and 20 μm for the upper biotite zone in the Sambagawa metamorphic terrain. The mean values of the critical radii of spherical quartz inclusions in oligoclase of the Ryoke metamorphic rocks is about 5 μm for the chlorite zone and about 10–20 μm for the sillimanite zone.

Assuming temperatures of about 350°C for the upper chlorite and garnet zones, 400°C for the lower biotite zone, 550°C for the upper biotite zone, and 700°C for the sillimanite zone, the activation energy for the grain boundary diffusion of oxygen along the quartz/plagioclase interfase is estimated to be about 30 kcal/mol.
