A new experimental method is introduced for determining the relative magnitudes of liquid and vapor diffusion by using a small amount of soluble chemical as a tracer. The theoretical justification of the method is presented for the case where ice is absent. The feasibility of the method is demonstrated by an experiment using marine-deposited clay. 相似文献
The stable growth condition of a segregated ice layer is studied by the use of the principle of mass and heat conservation. This condition evidently depends upon the properties of a thin transitional zone, which is believed to exist between the boundary of an ice layer and a 0[°C] isotherm. All probable models of the transitional zone are classified and the conditions for each model is derived. The effect of the small amount of soil minerals contained in an ice layer is also studied. 相似文献
A new experimental method for measuring the soil-water diffusivity of frozen soil under isothermal conditions is introduced. The theoretical justification of the method is presented and the feasibility of the method is demonstrated by experiments conducted using marine deposited clay. The measured values of the soil-water diffusivity are found comparable to reported experimental data. 相似文献
Bentonite clay is a micro-inhomogeneous material, which consists of clay minerals (mainly montmorillonite), macro-grains (mainly quartz), water, air and others. Properties of the saturated bentonite clay are essentially characterized by the montmorillonite and water (i.e. montmorillonite hydrate). We analyze the molecular behavior of sodium montmorillonite hydrate Na1/3Al2[Si11/3Al1/3]O10(OH)2·nH2O by applying a molecular dynamics (MD) simulation method. And by using the MD results we calculate the swelling property of the montmorillonite hydrate, and compare with an experimental result. Next, by using the same MD procedure we treat a montmorillonite mineral with a large number of external water molecules to check the properties of the water. Here we treat pure- and salt-water. Then we calculate the diffusivity and viscosity of water molecules and Na+ and Cl− ions.
For extending the microscopic characteristics of constituent materials to a macroscopic seepage behavior of the micro-inhomogeneous material we apply a homogenization analysis (HA). That is, starting with the Navier–Stokes equation with distributed viscosity that is calculated by the former MD procedure we determine macroscopic permeability characteristics of bentonite for both cases of pure- and salt-water. Then, by using the permeability property we calculate long-term consolidation behavior of buffering clay, which is planed to be used for high-level radioactive waste (HLRW) management. Here the deformation is treated under the well-defined Cam clay model. 相似文献
Summary Feldspar phenocrysts in alkali rhyolite from Oki-Dogo island in the Sea of Japan show mantled textures with cores of anorthoclase and rims of sanidine. These feldspars were examined by electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and X-ray microanalysis. Anorthoclase first crystallized, then was partially resorbed, and finally sanidine overgrew on the anorthoclase. Saw-tooth or comb-like interfaces between the cores and rims were likely formed at the magmatic stage of resorption and overgrowth. Optically perthitic intergrowths appear in thin sections cutting saw-tooth or comb-like interfaces of the mantled feldspars. The sanidine preserves primary cryptoperthitic textures of a periodicity smaller than 10 nm, which are considered to have been produced by subsolidus exsolution after the resorption event ended. The anorthoclase has no exsolution texture under an electron microscope.
Feldspatkristalle in Alkali-Rhyolith von der Insel Oki-Dogo, Japan
Zusammenfassung Feldspatkristalle in Alkali-Rhyolith von der Oki-Dogo Insel im Japanischen Meer zeigen ummantelte Texturen mit Kernen von Anorthoklas und Rändern von Sanidin. Diese Feldspate wurden mit Elektronenmikroskopie, Röntgendiffraktion und Mikrosondenanalyse untersucht. Anorthoklas kristallisierte zuerst, wurde dann teilweise resorbiert und schließlich wuchs Sanidin über den Anorthoklas. Sägezahn- und Kamm-ähnliche Grenzen zwischen Kernen und Rändern wurden wahrscheinlich wahrend des magmatischen Stadiums von Resorption und Überwachsung gebildet. Unter dem Mikroskop erkennt man, daß perthitische Verwachsungen durch Sägezahn- oder Kamm-artige Grenzen der ummantelten Feldspäte hinwegsetzen. Der Sanidin erhellt primäre kryptoperthitische Texturen mit einer Periodizität von > 10 nm, die als Produkte einer Subsolidus-Entmischung nach der Resorption interpretiert werden. Anorthoklas läßt unter dem Elektronenmikroskop keine Entmischungstexturen erkennen.
The age difference between the oldest Population I stars and the extreme Population II stars is investigated by comparison of observational H-R diagrams with theoretical results using the common input physics and computer program for both Populations. Chemical compositions adopted for Population I and II stars are,X=0.7 andZ=0.02, andX=2×10–4, respectively. Evidence collected indicates that the open cluster NGC 188 and the globular cluster M92 are the representative samples of the oldest Population I and extreme Population II stars, respectively. Comparison between the observed H-R diagrams and theoretical isochrones in terms of the luminosity of the subgiant region and the turnoff point for NGC 188 and M92, respectively, then suggests that there is a significant age difference between Population I and II objects. The uncertainty of the oxygen abundance in the extreme Population II stars and its effect on their age determination is briefly discussed. 相似文献
Effects of ice content on the transport of water in frozen soil are studied experimentally and theoretically under isothermal conditions. A physical law, that the flux of water in unsaturated frozen soil is proportional to the gradient of total water content is proposed. Theoretical justification is made by the use of the two-phase flow theory. The experimental results are shown to support the proposed physical law. The results of this study are presented in two parts and this is the second paper describing the theoretical aspects of the study. 相似文献
Summary Microscopically alkali feldspar in a quartz syenite from Oki-Dozen, Japan, consists of clear and turbid areas. Clear areas occur in the interiors of feldspar grains and are cryptoperthitic. Film microperthites are developed with turbidity in the rims, and mosaic microperthites are developed with turbidity in the interiors and in the rims. Turbidity is attributed to the presence of abundant micropores. The chemical compositions of pristine clear feldspars are around Or33Ab64An3. The interior microperthitic feldspars have lower An content than the clear feldspars. Some areas of the clear and microperthitic feldspars in the interiors are poor in calcium. In contrast, the microperthitic rims contain almost no calcium. The zonal patterns of calcium-rich cores and calcium-poor rims are very distinct in almost all feldspar grains. The overall calcium distribution patterns suggest a secondary calcium-depletion from the feldspars during hydrothermal or deuteric reactions. The development of Or-rich veins transversing feldspar grains and rim albite is consistent with this model. Calcium distribution patterns in alkali feldspar provide new and useful information on processes during geologic events.
Calcium-Verteilung in Alkalifeldspat eines Quarz-Syenites von Oki-Dozen, Südwest-Japan
Zusammenfassung Mikroskopisch zeigt Alkalifeldspat aus einem Quarz-Syenit von Oki-Dozen, Japan, klare und trübe Bereiche. Die klaren Bereiche treten in den inneren Zonen von Feldspatkörnern auf und sind kryptoperthitisch. Die getrübten Ränder sind Film-Mikroperthite während Mosaik-Perthite Trübung in Kern-und Randbereichen zeigen. Die Trübung ist auf die Anwesenheit zahlreicher Mikroporen zurückzuführen. Die chemische Zusammensetzung der ursprünglichen klaren Feldspäte ist etwa Or33Ab64An3. Die Kerne der mikroperthitischen Feldspäte haben niedrigere An-Gehalte als die klaren Feldspäte. Im Unterschied führen die Mikroperthit-Ränder kein Kalzium. Die Zonierungsmuster, d.h. Ca-reiche Kerne und Ca-arme Ränder, sind sehr typisch für alle Feldspäte. Die generelle Ca-Verteilung weist auf eine sekundäre Ca-Verarmung der Feldspäte im Zuge hydrothermaler oder deuterischer Prozesse hin. Die Bildung Orreicher Gängehen, die die Feldspatkörner durchsetzen und von Albiträndern stimmen mit diesem Modell überein. Die Ca-Verteilungsmuster in Alkalifeldspat erlauben somit Einblicke in und geben nützliche Informationen über geologische Prozesse.
Properties of the so-called strange modes occurring in linear stability calculations of stellar models are discussed. The behaviour of these modes is compared for two different sets of stellar models, for very massive zero-age main-sequence stars and for luminous hydrogen-deficient stars, both with high luminosity-to-mass ratios. We have found that the peculiar behaviour of the frequencies of the strange modes with the change of a control parameter is caused by the pulsation amplitude of a particular eigenmode being strongly confined to the outer part of the envelope, around the density inversion zone. The frequency of a strange mode changes because the depth of the confinement zone changes with the control parameter. Weakly non-adiabatic strange modes tend to be overstable because the amplitude confinement quenches the effect of radiative damping. On the other hand, extremely non-adiabatic strange modes become overstable because the perturbation of radiation force (gradient of radiation pressure) provides a restoring force that can be out of phase with the density perturbation. We discuss this mechanism by using a plane-parallel two-zone model. 相似文献
