基于DEEPSOIL的软土场地地震反应研究

软土场地地震反应分析是目前工程场地地震安全性评价中的重要组成部分,对场地设计地震动参数的确定具有重要意义。利用一维场地地震反应分析软件DEEPSOIL,可进行场地线性、等效线性化和时域非线性等多种分析,并可考虑孔隙水压的影响。笔者根据土层计算参数,编制了DEEPSOIL软件场地模型输入文件的自动生成程序,可高效、快速地完成对场地的建模。通过数值算例验证了DEEPSOIL软件的精度。同时通过对某典型Ⅲ类软土场地的地震反应分析,研究了拟合参数的敏感性以及等效线性化方法和时域非线性方法对峰值加速度和地表加速度反应谱的影响,并指出了等效线性化方法在分析软土场地地震反应中的不足。对于软土场地建议采用DEEPSOIL软件进行时域非线性分析,因为其参数简单并容易确定,适合建模快速和使用方便的要求。

对含厚软表层海域工程场地设计地震动参数确定的一点建议

工程上常用的等效线性化方法在处理常见的、含厚软表层的海域场地时,其计算结果往往产生较大的偏异.为了研究这些计算偏异产生的程度,本文利用等效线性化方法对典型海域工程钻孔进行了小震、中震和大震3种不同工况下保留和舍弃软表层情况下的土层计算.考虑到在大震作用下,土体可能进入大的非线性范围,等效线性化将不再适用,故引入了一种能更好地考虑土层大非线性效应的直接时域积分方法,并与等效线性化方法研究结果进行了对比分析.在此基础上,给出了确定含厚软表层海域工程场地设计地震动参数的处理建议.

A Monte Carlo study of rainfall forecasting with a stochastic model

A procedure for short-term rainfall forecasting in real-time is developed and a study of the role of sampling on forecast ability is conducted. Ground level rainfall fields are forecasted using a stochastic space-time rainfall model in state-space form. Updating of the rainfall field in real-time is accomplished using a distributed parameter Kalman filter to optimally combine measurement information and forecast model estimates. The influence of sampling density on forecast accuracy is evaluated using a series of a simulated rainfall events generated with the same stochastic rainfall model. Sampling was conducted at five different network spatial densities. The results quantify the influence of sampling network density on real-time rainfall field forecasting. Statistical analyses of the rainfall field residuals illustrate improvement in one hour lead time forecasts at higher measurement densities.

Foreword

Destructive earthquakes have caused great damage in China and the United States and collapsing buildings havecaused many deaths and injuries. The field of earthquake engineering studies earthquake hazards, the occurrence ofearthquakes of various magnitudes, the nature of the ground shaking during an earthquake, the vibration of structuresduring earthquakes, the strengthening of existing structures and the design of new structures to be earthquake resistant,and finally, how to cope with earthquake damage and restore a city to normal functioning. Such efforts are in progressin both countries, but unfortunately, the language barrier interferes with the free flow of information between China andthe Untied States. It would be mutually beneficial if some means could be developed to promote the exchangeof information across the Pacific Ocean. This new journal has been established for this purpose and its success willbe an important step in promoting earthquake engineering in China and the United States.

Enhancing remote sensing research on global change to improve our understanding on Earth system processes

正Global Change includes climate change and other environmental changes caused by the joint interaction among various layers of Earth. From the positive side, global change provides new opportunities to human and other living forms on Earth. In the meantime, it creates tremendous challenges and negative impact. At present, the negative impacts have reached all primary processes of the global ecosystem and every aspect of human society, especially causing degradation of the ecosystem. For instance, intensive deforestation causes decline of biodiversity; global warming causes sea level rise and increases     

Solute concentrations in the lower niger river and the source rock contribution

Water quality analyses for the Niger River for the 1980/81 hydrological year are presented. The samples were collected from the main river at Lokoja, and from two main tributaries, the Kaduna and the Benue Rivers. Different water types were distinguished by the concentrations of major ions. The type Ca > Na > Mg > K - HCO₃ > SO₄ > Cl was represented at all stations during at least part of the year. Chloride was found to dominate the sulphate ion in the Kaduna and Niger, while the Benue maintained a higher concentration of sulphate relative to chloride all year round. Distinct patterns of seasonal variation in the ion concentrations were observed, particularly for the samples collected at Lokoja. Low ion concentrations were prominent during periods of high discharge, while low flow periods coincided with high dissolved ion concentrations. The contribution of rainwater to the total dissolved solids in the river waters was assessed indirectly using rainwater chemistry data from the Gulf of Guinea. The estimated rainwater contribution to the Lower Niger amounts to 5.15 mg 1^?1. Geochemical weathering calculations involving reactions of the four major minerals of granitic rocks - anorthite, biotite, albite, and K-feldspar - with carbon dioxide and water, can account for the average water composition of the Lower Niger. The proportion of the ionic components was also related to the occurrence of the respective element in the minerals.
