A survey on the epiphytic microorganisms growing on Posidonia oceanica leaves was conducted along a depth transect along the coast of Eastern Tunisia (Mahdia). Samples were collected by SCUBA diving at depths of 3, 5, 10 and 12 m in July 2008 and January 2009. A total of 58 microepiphyte taxa were identified. Multivariate analyses revealed temporal and spatial variation of the abundance of epiphytic microalgae. Water motion, light availability, temperature and motility of species seem to be responsible of temporal and bathymetric variations of epiphytic microalgae. Unlike diatoms, dinoflagellates were more abundant in deep waters, suggesting that they are more vulnerable to hydrodynamics. The significant correlation between leaf area index and abundance of epiphytic species indicates that the phenological parameters of the host plant influence the abundance of the epiphytic microorganisms. Among the epiphytic dinoflagellates, our data showed a great number of potentially toxic species (Alexandrium minitum, Amphidinium carterae, Karenia selliformis, Coolia monatis, Karlodinium veneficum, Ostreopsis siamensis, Prorocentrum concavum, Prorocentrum minimum, Prorocentrum rathymum and Prorocentrum lima). These species were more abundant in the deep station under more sheltered conditions than found at inshore shallower stations, which are subjected to high water motion. 相似文献

Water analysis data of 54 groundwater samples from 18 uniformly distributed wells were collected during three campaigns (June, September and December 2004). Q-mode hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) was employed for partitioning the water samples into hydrochemical facies. Interpretation of analytical data showed that the abundance of major ions was identified as follows: Ca ? Mg > Na > K and HCO3 ? Cl > SO4. Three major water facies are suggested by the HCA analysis. The samples from the area were classified as recharge area waters (Ca–Mg–HCO3 water), transition area waters (Mg–Ca–HCO3–Cl water), and discharge area waters (Mg–Ca–Cl–HCO3 water). Inverse geochemical modeling suggests that relatively few phases are required to derive the water chemistry in the area. In a broad sense, the reactions responsible for the hydrochemical evolution in the area fall into two categories: (1) evaporite weathering reactions and (2) precipitation of carbonate minerals. 相似文献

Sugar plants are one of the most energy-consuming industries in Iran; thus, the implementation of measures to improve energy efficiency seems necessary for such industries. This paper investigated sugar plants’ efficiency in different stages for implementation process of energy efficiency measures focusing on determining some relations for benchmarking and reaching efficient status. In doing so, the process of implementation of energy efficiency improvement measures is planned on the basis of experts’ opinions. Also, for deriving the efficiency of each plant in each of the stages of implementation of measures and the aggregate efficiency of them a multi-stage data envelopment analysis model is formulated. The obtained results from average efficiency indicated that the under evaluation population in the first, second, third, and fifth stages have a good performance and in the fourth-stage managers could not perform successfully. Also, the results of determining some relations for benchmarking showed that to what extent each of the outputs of each stage of the implementation process of energy efficiency measures in the sugar plants should be changed in order to achieve efficient conditions. The distance between the current output and the desirable output indicates to what extent manager has been successful in operation, studies of the rate of change of each of the outputs to achieve the efficient conditions are of the utmost importance in developing suitable strategies. 相似文献

The present work focuses on the ability of Late-Barremian sands from Ouaddada Mountain (Central Tunisia), to produce high-quality white cement clinker. Results indicate that these sands are particularly characterized by their fineness of grains (mean grain-size 90–140 μm), high cleanness (sand equivalent 88–98%), extremely low coloring oxides and volatiles levels (less than 0.03 and 1.9% respectively) and high values of whiteness and lightness indices (more than 86 and 90% respectively). Studies based on Bogue calculation, X-ray diffraction (XRD), burnability of raw mixes, Point Counting and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) with Energy-Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy (EDS) methods, reveal that the Late-Barremian sands from Ouaddada Mountain can be used in the production of white Portland clinker by mixing with 70.8–75.6% of local limestones and 3.5–24.8% by weight of common Mediterranean kaolins from Guadalajar province (Central Spain), Tamazert (North-East Algeria), ?ile (North-West Turkey), Sebha (South-West Libya), and Abu Zanima area (West-Central Sinai, Egypt). Synthesized clinkers are composed largely of alite (75–76.2%), belite (12.8–16.5%) and aluminate (7.4–8.9%) with subordinate quantities of ferrite (less than 1%), slightly harder to burn and seem to be much whiter than Mediterranean ones with a whiteness index β more than 86%. 相似文献

A finite element technique is developed for two-dimensional problems of dynamics of dam–water–foundation systems taking into account all interactions rigorously. Water–foundation interaction, which previous developments have only simulated, is considered by imposing proper conditions at the fluid–solid interface. Furthermore, the technique permits treatment of layered foundations. An application to a concrete gravity dam–water–foundation system is presented and discussed. 相似文献

Fluctuating asymmetry, a random deviation of bilateral traits, is assessed on grass goby Zosterisessor ophiocephalus Pallas, 1811 living in one disturbed site and in one unpolluted site Gulf of Gabes (Tunisia). Statistical analysis showed that assessed asymmetries are fluctuating. FA of orbital diameter, sub-orbital distance, pectoral fin and post-orbital length are higher in polluted site compared to control. Chemical pollution seems to be responsible for this high FA. 相似文献

Formulation and algorithmic treatment of a rate‐dependent plastic–damage model modified to capture large tensile cracking in cyclic‐loaded concrete structures are presented in detail for a three‐dimensional implementation. The plastic–damage model proposed by Lee and Fenves in 1998 was founded based on isotropic damaged elasticity in combination with isotropic multi‐hardening plasticity to simulate cracking and crushing of concrete under cyclic or dynamic loadings. In order that the model can capture large crack opening displacements, which are inevitable in plain concrete structures, the excessive increase in plastic strain causing unrealistic results in cyclic behaviors is prevented when the tensile plastic–damage variable controlling the evolution of tensile damage is larger than a critical value. In such a condition, the crack opening/closing mechanism becomes similar to discrete cracking. The consistent tangent operator required to accelerate convergence rate is also formulated for the large cracking state including viscoplasticity. The validation and performance of the modified algorithm implemented in a special finite element program is exemplified through several single‐element tests as well as three structural applications. The last example examines the model in the seismic fracture analysis of Koyna dam as a benchmark problem and the resulting crack profile is compared with the available experiment. The numerical experimentations well demonstrate that the developed model whose modification is necessary to properly simulate the cyclic behavior of plain concrete subjected to large tensile strains is robust and reasonably accurate.

The use of granulated recycled rubber as a lightweight material in civil engineering applications has been widely growing over the past 20 years. Processed waste tires mixed with soils have been introduced as lightweight fills for slopes, retaining walls, and embankments. It has also been considered as a damping material under foundations in seismic zones. Understanding the properties of sand-rubber mixtures is essential to evaluate its performance in geotechnical applications. Isotopically consolidated drained (CD) triaxial tests were conducted to investigate the effect of rubber size, content and saturation condition on the mechanical properties of sand-rubber mixtures. Moreover, the compressibility of the sand-rubber mixtures under sustained loading was investigated through one dimensional consolidation tests. The unit weight, shear strength and stiffness of sand-rubber mixtures decreased whereas deformability increased at increased rubber content. A non-linear stress-strain response was observed, that changed from brittle to ductile behaviour at increased rubber content. Sand-rubber mixtures, under one dimensional loading, exhibited significant settlement that increased as rubber content increased. 相似文献

The present study focuses on horizontal spatial variability of benthic macrofauna associated with Patella ferruginea. Thirty-six samples collected at 12 transects belonging to 4 midlittoral sites along the rocky Tunisian coastline, were examined. A total of 44 species belonging to 5 taxa were found. Multivariate analysis applied on gathered data did not show a horizontal spatial variability at small scale (between transects), but at large scale, between sites as well as sectors. Thus, three groups of communities were identified (GI: Korbous and El Haouaria; GIIa: Zembra Island and GIIb: Kelibia). The distribution of species abundance within these groups revealed that crustaceans were the most abundant taxon, due to the overwhelming dominance of Chthamalus stellatus. This substratum appeared to create favourable micro-habitats for the installation of molluscs including gastropods. Regarding the low diversity index (H') and evenness (J), they seemed to reflect a disturbance and a demographic unbalance within these communities. The heterogeneity of substrate surface, created by C. stellatus specimens appeared to be caused by various complex interactions established between the key components of these communities in particular suspension feeders, predators, herbivorous molluscs and macroalgae. Thus, the dynamic status of each of these communities is the result of these complex interactions. 相似文献
