基于误差理论的产状测量精度评定

以边坡为研究对象,针对基于罗盘、免棱镜全站仪、激光测距仪、三维激光扫描仪和数字摄影测量工作站的5种产状测量方法,采用误差理论进行产状测量精度评定。研究表明,罗盘产状测量的倾向、倾角中误差分别为±4°和±3°,其精度评定既可以提高对罗盘产状测量精度的认识,也可为其他4种非接触类产状测量方法的精度评定提供验算数据。利用罗盘只能进行高陡边坡下部结构面的产状测量,测量范围有限且高耗低效;非接触类产状测量方法则可以解决人员难以到达的高陡边坡上部结构面的产状测量问题。其中,三维激光扫描和数字近景摄影测量方法可以获取边坡岩体大量随机结构面上的产状信息,为基于随机动力学的边坡稳定性评价提供重要的基础数据。

EMC design for actuators in the FAST reflector

An active reflector is one of the three main innovations incorporated in the Five-hundredmeter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST).The deformation of such a huge spherically shaped reflector into different transient parabolic shapes is achieved by using 2225 hydraulic actuators which change the position of the 2225 nodes through the connected down tied cables.For each different tracking process of the telescope,more than 1/3 of these 2225 actuators must be in operation to tune the parabolic aperture accurately and meet the surface error restriction.This means that some of these actuators are inevitably located within the main beam of the receiver,and Electromagnetic Interference(EMI)from the actuators must be mitigated to ensure the scientific output of the telescope.Based on the threshold level of interference detrimental to radio astronomy described in ITU-R Recommendation RA.769 and EMI measurements,the shielding efficiency(SE)requirement for each actuator is set to be 80 d B in the frequency range from 70 MHz to 3 GHz.Therefore,Electromagnetic Compatibility(EMC)was taken into account in the actuator design by measures such as power line filters,optical fibers,shielding enclosures and other structural measures.In 2015,all the actuators had been installed at the FAST site.Till now,no apparent EMI from the actuators has been detected by the receiver,which demonstrates the effectiveness of these EMC measures.     

A hybrid neural network model for typhoon-rainfall forecasting

A hybrid neural network model is proposed in this paper to forecast the typhoon rainfall. Two different types of artificial neural networks, the self-organizing map (SOM) and the multilayer perceptron network (MLPN), are combined to develop the proposed model. In the proposed model, a data analysis technique is developed based on the SOM, which can perform cluster analysis and discrimination analysis in one step. The MLPN is used as the nonlinear regression technique to construct the relationship between the input and output data. First, the input data are analyzed using a SOM-based data analysis technique. Through the SOM-based data analysis technique, input data with different properties are first divided into distinct clusters, which can help the multivariate nonlinear regression of each cluster. Additionally, the topological relationships among data are discovered from which more insight into the typhoon-rainfall process can be revealed. Then, for each cluster, the individual relationship between the input and output data is constructed by a specific MLPN. For evaluating the forecasting performance of the proposed model, an application is conducted. The proposed model is applied to the Tanshui River Basin to forecast the typhoon rainfall. The results show that the proposed model can forecast more precisely than the model developed by the conventional neural network approach.     

Isotopic records in CM hibonites: Implications for timescales of mixing of isotope reservoirs in the solar nebula

The magnesium isotopic compositions of 26 hibonite-bearing inclusions from the CM chondrite Murchison, as well as isotopic measurements on a subset of these samples for oxygen, titanium, and lithium-beryllium-boron are reported along with oxygen isotopic data for an additional 13 hibonites that were previously investigated for other isotope systems (magnesium, potassium, calcium, and titanium) and rare earth element concentrations. Magnesium isotopic compositions divide CM hibonites into two distinct populations which correlate perfectly with their mineralogy and morphology, as previously discovered by Ireland [Ireland T. R. (1988) Correlated morphological, chemical, and isotopic characteristics of hibonites from the Murchison carbonaceous chondrite. Geochim. Cosmochim. Acta52, 2827-2839]: Spinel-HIBonite spherules (SHIBs) bear evidence of in situ²⁶Al decay, whereas PLAty-Crystals (PLACs) and Blue AGgregates (BAGs) either lack resolvable ²⁶Mg-excesses or exhibit ²⁶Mg deficits by up to ∼4‰. High precision, multiple collector SIMS analyses show that 6 of 7 SHIBs investigated fall on a single correlation line implying ²⁶Al/²⁷Al = (4.5 ± 0.2) × 10⁻⁵ at the time of isotopic closure, consistent with the “canonical” ²⁶Al abundance characteristic of internal isochrons in many calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs). One SHIB sample exhibits Δ²⁶Mg^∗ consistent with a “supracanonical” ²⁶Al/²⁷Al ratio of (6.4 ± 0.5) × 10⁻⁵. The PLAC hibonites contain highly anomalous titanium isotopic compositions, with δ⁵⁰Ti values ranging from −80‰ to almost +200‰, whereas SHIBs generally lack large Ti isotopic anomalies.Eight out of 11 ²⁶Al-free PLAC hibonite grains record ¹⁰B/¹¹B excesses that correlate with Be/B; the inferred initial ¹⁰Be/⁹Be ratio of (5.1 ± 1.4) × 10⁻⁴ is lower than the best-constrained ¹⁰Be/⁹Be of (8.8 ± 0.6) × 10⁻⁴ in a CV CAI. The data demonstrate that ¹⁰Be cannot be used as a relative chronometer for these objects and that most of the ¹⁰Be observed in CAIs must be produced by irradiation of precursor solids in the early solar system. The lack of ²⁶Al in PLAC hibonites indicates that significant amounts of ²⁶Al were not formed in the same spallogenic processes that made ¹⁰Be in PLAC precursors. This is most easily understood as indicating very early formation of the PLAC hibonites, prior to the incorporation and mixing of ²⁶Al into the solar nebula, although an alternative scenario, which invokes irradiation under different solar flare conditions, cannot be ruled out. Lithium isotopes are normal within uncertainties, probably reflecting contamination and/or postcrystallization exchange.The oxygen isotopic compositions of SHIBs and PLACs are all highly ¹⁶O-enriched, but are not derived from a homogeneous reservoir: Δ¹⁷O values span a range of ∼−28‰ to −15‰. The ranges of ¹⁶O-enrichment in SHIBs and PLACs overlap and are less “anomalous” than the most ¹⁶O-enriched compositions found in meteorites [Kobayashi S., Imai H. and Yurimoto H. (2003) New extreme ¹⁶O-rich chondrule in the early solar system. Geochem. J.37, 663-669]. Both PLACs and SHIBs formed in ¹⁶O-enriched reservoirs characterized by small-scale heterogeneities in the gas phase. If such heterogeneities were generated by an admixture of relatively ¹⁶O-poor gas created by self-shielding during CO photolysis and transported to the hot inner regions of the accretion disk, then this process must have been initiated very early on, prior to the arrival of fresh radioactivity into the inner solar system. Oxygen isotope heterogeneities persisted throughout the formation interval of PLACs, CAI precursors, and SHIBs which could be as long as 3 × 10⁵ years based on ²⁶Al records.One SHIB and one BAG exhibit mass fractionated oxygen isotopic compositions similar to those seen in FUN inclusions and in several platy hibonite crystals [Lee T., Mayeda T. K. and Clayton R. N. (1980) Oxygen isotopic anomalies in Allende inclusion HAL. Geophys. Res. Lett.7, 493-496; Ireland T. R., Zinner E. K., Fahey A. J. and Esat T. M. (1992) Evidence for distillation in the formation of HAL and related hibonite inclusions. Geochim. Cosmochim. Acta56, 2503-2520; Ushikubo T., Hiyagon H. and Sugiura N. (2007) A FUN-like hibonite inclusion with a large ²⁶Mg-excess. Earth Planet. Sci. Lett.254, 115-126]. The suite of mass-fractionated hibonites exhibit a range of isotopic properties, including ²⁶Al/²⁷Al ratios from below detection to a “canonical” level and oxygen and titanium anomalies that are not exceptional by PLAC standards. This suggests that F (fractionation) processes—evaporation under (oxidizing) conditions—are not necessarily associated with sampling a special isotopic reservoir.     

The effect of data quality on model performance with application to daily evaporation estimation

The model performance is usually influenced by the quality of the data used in model construction. If the model performance is less affected by data quality, the resulting estimates will be more reliable. In this paper, the variation in model performance due to different data quality is explored in a field-scale application. Hence, two models, the proposed support vector machine (SVM) based model and the Stephen and Stewart (SS) model, are employed for daily estimation of evaporation at an experiment station. Five scenarios corresponding to different data qualities are designed to evaluate the effect of data quality on model performance. Additionally, the most effective meteorological variables influencing evaporation are obtained by a systematic input determination process. These most effective meteorological variables are used as inputs to the SVM-based model. The results show that the model performance decreases as the data quality decreases (i.e. the percentage of missing data increases). However, the estimation accuracy of SVM-based models is still better than that of the SS model. Moreover, the variation of model performance of the SVM-based model is smaller than that of the SS model. That is, the negative impact of different data quality is effectively decreased by using the SVM-based model instead of the SS model.
