Energy flux in viscoelastic anisotropic media

We study properties of the energy-flux vector and other related energy quantities of homogeneous and inhomogeneous time-harmonic P and S plane waves, propagating in unbounded viscoelastic anisotropic media, both analytically and numerically. We propose an algorithm for the computation of the energy-flux vector, which can be used for media of unrestricted anisotropy and viscoelasticity, and for arbitrary homogeneous or inhomogeneous plane waves. Basic part of the algorithm is determination of the slowness vector of a homogeneous or inhomogeneous wave, which satisfies certain constraints following from the equation of motion. Approaches for determination of a slowness vector commonly used in viscoelastic isotropic media are usually difficult to use in viscoelastic anisotropic media. Sometimes they may even lead to non-physical solutions. To avoid these problems, we use the so-called mixed specification of the slowness vector, which requires, in a general case, solution of a complex-valued algebraic equation of the sixth degree. For simpler cases, as for SH waves propagating in symmetry planes, the algorithm yields simple analytic solutions. Once the slowness vector is known, determination of energy flux and of other energy quantities is easy. We present numerical examples illustrating the behaviour of the energy-flux vector and other energy quantities, for homogeneous and inhomogeneous plane P , SV and SH waves.

适用于矢量瓦片缓存替换的视点相关预测区域算法

传统的缓存置换策略未充分考虑数据访问的空间特征,也不适用于基于矢量瓦片的替换。该文根据矢量瓦片的空间数据结构,提出一种适用于矢量瓦片缓存替换的视点相关预测区域算法:首先根据瓦片存储中多分辨率金字塔结构进行空间单元划分,并根据用户操作类型求解矢量瓦片及空间单元热度,从而构建用户视点位置相关的预测区域;然后综合考虑瓦片层级、空间单元热度及距离等因素进行预测区域分析,获得瓦片缓存价值并进行瓦片置换。通过与传统的FIFO、LRU和LFU缓存策略相比较,该算法的瓦片命中率比FIFO和LRU分别提高了近50%和20%,瓦片的请求耗时分别缩短了50%和30%左右,相比LFU也有明显优势。该研究为WebGIS提供了一种更具潜力的瓦片缓存方法。     

矢量数据向栅格数据转换的一种改进算法

地理信息系统的发展与空间数据结构的优化密不可分,栅格数据与矢量数据之间的高效转换是GIS的关键技术之一。由于栅格数据十分有利于空间分析中的叠置分析,因而通常需要将矢量数据转换成栅格数据。该文分析对比了地理信息系统的两种基本数据结构,在总结已往矢量数据转换为栅格数据方法的基础上,依据边界代数多边形填充算法的基本原理,结合绘图作业时采用的正负法,提出了一种改进的折线边界(数据串)跟踪方法。该算法原理简单,不需进行复杂的距离比较运算,运算速度快,并且通过简单的角度判断保证了填充的精度。     

Plate tectonics at an awkward junction: rules for the evolution of Sovanco Ridge area, NE Pacific

Summary. The elegant geometrical rules of plate tectonics do not allow for a gradual shift in plate motion directions, or the gradual, as opposed to sudden, cessation of subduction. At the scale of the small plates in the NE Pacific, imperfections in boundary processes have a large effect on the net torque on the plates, and heavily influence the evolution of the geometry. In this area, the rotation of the spreading directions and the diminution of true subduction along the southern Canadian coast has not occurred by the sudden switching of plate motions from one stable condition to another. Instead, it appears as if the dominant factor for the evolution is the resistance of the ocean floor to formation of new, smoothly slipping transform faults. Compressive deformation of even young lithosphere is not only mechanically unlikely, but is not helpful to the particular configurations found in this area. Instead, a migrating shear zone and an episode of highly en echelon spreading along a new axis nearly perpendicular to the present Juan de Fuca ridge have resulted: the present Sovanco ridge was never a transform fault. Neither is the Nootka fault a shear zone, but the locus of stretching between plates whose motions are congruent at the Juan de Fuca ridge, but diverge toward the continental margin.     

Complementary Use of Scalar,Directional, and Vector Statistics with an Application to Surface Winds

Vector data are not uncommon in geography, and include examples such as transportation flows, particulate transport, and cartographic distortion. The directional and vector means and variances of these types of data are easily computed using a complex-arithmetic extension of the equations for scalar mean and variance. The January surface wind field over the contiguous United States provides an example with which to compare the information provided by scalar, directional and vector-based statistics. Spatial patterns of the mean and variance of January wind velocity (the wind vector) resemble patterns of wind speeds and directions but are not a simple superposition of the two, and one cannot necessarily infer the nature of the velocity field from separately computed salar and directional statistics. However, scalar and directional means and variances can lend insight into the features contributing to the velocity mean and variance. Scalar, directional, and vector-based analyses thus provide complementary methods with which to examine the spatial patterns of wind, or of any flow field that can be represented as a vector.

土地利用数据尺度转换的精度损失分析

由于栅格数据便于空间分析,因而通常将矢量数据转化成栅格数据来进行空间分析.在转化过程中,选用不同的栅格大小,其面积和精度损失是不同的.针对这个问题,以重庆市110万的土地利用矢量数据为例,探讨了不同栅格大小下,各种土地利用类型在转化过程的面积和精度损失.研究表明(1)栅格大小＜100m时,其精度损失均＜3.3%.(2)在1000m时,其精度损失达到50%以上的地类有湖泊、水库坑塘、滩地、农村居民点用地、工交建设用地、戈壁、裸岩石地、平原区旱地和坡度＞25°的旱地,这些地类的平均图斑大小均在＜51hm2.(3)在30m～1000m间,平均图斑大小＜82hm2的地类随着栅格的由小变大,其面积变得比实际面积小;平均图斑大小＞101hm2的地类中除高盖度的草地和河渠之外,却与此相反.     

NDVI changes in China between 1989 and 1999 using change vector analysis based on time series data

Change vector analysis (CVA) and principal component analysis in NDVI time-trajectories space are powerful tools to analyze land-cover change. The magnitude of the change vector indicates amplitude of the change, while its direction indicates the nature of the change. CVA is applied to two remotely sensed indicators of land surface conditions, NDVI and spatial structure, in order to improve the capability to detect and categorize land-cover change. The magnitude and type of changes are calculated in China from 1989 to 1999. Through the research, the main conclusions are drawn as follows: 1) The changes of NDVI are quite different between eastern China and western China, and the change range in the east is bigger than that in the west. The trend in NDVI time series is smoothly increasing, the increases happen mostly in Taiwan, Fujian, Sichuan and Henan provinces and the decreases occur in Yunnan and Xinjiang. 2) The spatial structure index can indicate changes in the seasonal ecosystem dynamics for spatially heterogeneous landscapes. Most of spatial structure changes, which occurred in southern China, correlated with vegetation growth processes and strike of mountains.     

一种改进的基于法矢方向调整的平面点云分割方法

智慧城市的蓬勃发展和快速推广,使得三维建模成为当前热点研究方向。平面点云分割是三维点云建模中数据处理的关键环节。该文提出一种三角面片法向量方向调整方法,通过后续对邻近法向量进行加权平均估算实现平面点云的分割。首先采用八叉树的空间划分方法将无序的点云建立索引,利用K紧邻搜索获取参考点的K个邻近点,然后将该局部点构建不规则三角网并且得到包含参考点的所有三角面片以及三角面片的法向量,并通过将三维点投影到二维平面,利用平面三角形两边向量叉乘的方法,判断并调整各三角面片的顶点排列顺序,使三角面片的法向量一致化,最后对包含参考点的所有三角面片的法向量加权平均,估算参考点的法向量,根据点云法矢一致、共面的原则将平面点云分割出来。以徕卡Scanstation 2型扫描仪获取点云数据,对该方法进行检验,结果显示其能较好地实现对点云法矢量方向的调整与估算,并对平面点云数据进行分割提取。     

A vector field model to handle the displacement of multiple conflicts in building generalization

In map generalization, the displacement operation attempts to resolve proximity conflicts to guarantee map legibility. Owing to the limited representation space, conflicts may occur between both the same and different features under different contexts. A successful displacement should settle multiple conflicts, suppress the generation of secondary conflicts after moving some objects, and preserve the distribution patterns. The effect of displacement can be understood as a force that pushes related objects away with properties of propagation and distance decay. This study borrows the idea of vector fields from physics discipline and establishes a vector field model to handle the displacement of multiple conflicts in building generalization. A scalar field is first constructed based on a Delaunay triangulation skeleton to partition the buildings being examined (e.g., a street block). Then, we build a vector field to conduct displacement measurements through the detection of conflicts from multiple sources. The direction and magnitude of the displacement force are computed based on an iso-line model of vector field. The experiment shows that this global method can settle multiple conflicts and preserve the spatial relations and important building patterns.     

NDVI changes in China between 1989 and 1999 using change vector analysis based on time series data

1 Introduction The land surface has considerable control on the planet抯 energy balance, biogeochemical cycles and hydrologic cycle, which in turn significantly influences the climate system.

降水波动对荒漠草原生产力的影响

在干旱、半干旱荒漠草原区,降水量波动对植被生产力有显著影响.这种影响表现在两个层次上,一是降水量年际间波动,二是年内降水分布格局.对阴山北麓内蒙古乌拉特后旗荒漠草原多年气象资料和植被生产力的分析发现:从1971-2011年降水量的年际波动特点来看,荒漠草原区最高降水年的降水量是最小降水年的3.76倍.从气象、实际和矢量年降水量3种统计表达方式与生产力的关系来看,反映年际降水波动和年内分布特点的矢量降水与植被生产力的关系最密切(R=0.9200,R_0.001=0.8010),回归方程F检验达到极显著.由于研究区植被组成以小半灌木和多年生草本为主,且年降水量大部分集中在5-8月,生长期内月降水量的累积效应明显,其中6-8月累计降水对植被生产力的影响最显著.
