Characterizing uncertainty in geotechnical design of energy piles based on Bayesian theorem

It is known that a lot of uncertainties are involved in geotechnical design of energy piles. In this paper, a Bayesian updating framework is presented to characterize those uncertainties. The load-transfer model is developed to predict the thermomechanical response of energy piles. Considering the cross-case variability of the uncertainty in the axial strains of pile, the global model bias is firstly calibrated by establishing a comprehensive database consisting of 12 energy pile cases. Furthermore, the uncertainty in input parameters is considered in the Bayesian updating of model bias in a specific case. The variability of the uncertain parameters is effectively reduced after updating. The coefficient of variation of prediction is decreased from 0.34 to 0.13. The present framework can well quantify uncertain factors and improve the accuracy and reliability of the prediction model.

新疆北塔山地区埃姆斯期地层沉积相分析

对新疆北塔山地区下泥盆统埃姆斯阶实测剖面综合研究,结合地层中岩石组合、结构、构造、生物面貌等因素,将区内埃姆斯期地层沉积相进行划分。卓木巴斯套组下部发育海退系列滨浅海沉积相,中上部发育障壁岛向陆地迁移的海进序列,将其划分出浅海陆棚斜坡亚相、远滨亚相、临滨亚相、前滨亚相、风暴海滩亚相、泻湖亚相等沉积亚相,并描述各亚相特征。结合古生物特征分析研究区古地理环境演化机制,并与邻区同时期沉积环境进行对比,认为研究区在布拉格末期—早埃姆斯期发生了一次规模小、速度慢的海退,晚埃姆斯期—早埃菲尔期发生了大规模海进。     

东准噶尔双泉金矿LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb测年及赋矿岩石地球化学特征

为了解双泉金矿成矿时代及成矿环境,分别对双泉金矿含金石英脉和赋矿岩石进行采样测试分析。高精度LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb法测年结果表明,双泉金矿含金石英脉加权平均206Pb/238U年龄为(303.53±0.79)Ma,代表了含金石英脉形成年龄,属晚石炭世前后挤压推覆构造体系产物。与双泉金矿主成矿期年龄对比,结合矿区成矿条件及黄铁矿、毒砂等矿物形态特征,认为该金矿的形成不是一期结果,而是经历了预富集、富集的演化历程。赋矿岩石地球化学分析结果表明,岩石的SiO2、K2O、CaO(SiO2=58.82%~89.25%,K2O=1.12%~4.47%,CaO=0.52%~4.47%)含量高,Na2O含量低(Na2O=0.43%~1.76%),A/CNK值大于1,δ值小于3.3,属过铝质、钙碱性岩石,具富钾钙、贫钠镁特点;Ba相对Rb,Th亏损,K2O含量接近活动陆缘K2O含量,TiO2含量与岛弧TiO2含量接近,推断岩体形成于活动陆缘或岛弧环境;稀土元素具弱的负Eu、负Ce异常,(La/Sm)N值较(Gd/Yb)N值大,轻稀土元素分馏程度高于重稀土元素,表明岩浆具壳幔混熔特点。东准噶尔后碰撞阶段早石炭世至二叠纪晚期发生的陆-陆碰撞造山及伸展张弛构造运动可能是造成此结果的主要构造因素。     

印度尼西亚内格拉萨金矿床地质特征与找矿潜力

印度尼西亚内格拉萨金矿位于巽他—班达岛弧带中部的西爪哇岛,矿区内发育多条含金矿脉。根据矿区金矿脉的地质特征、矿石特征和围岩蚀变特征,研究了矿石成分、成矿温度、成矿流体、成矿年代和成矿模式,分析了找矿潜力。研究表明,矿区的主要矿体还未被剥蚀,深部可能存在规模更大、品位更高的金矿脉,甚至存在斑岩型铜金矿。
