Evolution of scouring process downstream of grade‐control structures under steady and unsteady flows

For many incised channels, one of the most common strategies is to install some hard structures, such as grade‐control structures (GCSs), in the riverbed to resist further incision. In this study, a series of experiments, including both steady and unsteady flow conditions, were conducted to investigate the scouring process downstream of a GCS. Three distinct phases, including the initial, developing and equilibrium phases, during the evolution of scour holes were identified. In addition, a semi‐empirical method was proposed to predict the equilibrium scour‐hole profile for the scour countermeasure design. In general, the comparisons between the experimental and simulated results are reasonably consistent. As the studies on temporal variation of the scour depth at GCSs caused by floods are limited, the effect of flood hydrograph shapes on the scour downstream of GCSs without upstream sediment supply was also investigated experimentally in this study. Based on the dimensional analysis and the concept of superposition, a methodology is proposed to simulate the time evolution of the maximum scour depth downstream of a GCS for steady flows. Moreover, the proposed scheme predicts reasonably well the temporal variations of the maximum scour depth for unsteady flows with both single and multiple peak.

Performances of multi-element multi-user detection strategies in ashallow-water acoustic network (SWAN)

A multi-element receiver strategy is proposed in this paper for a multi-user shallow-water acoustic network (SWAN). The base station receiver, equipped with prior knowledge of the synchronization and training sequences of all intended users, has the task of demodulating the received signals of each user independent of the presence of other users. The adopted receiver strategy enables robust communications through the challenging underwater environment which is limited by both environmental and system factors. The channel is characterized by inter-symbol interference due to multipath propagation and multiple access interference. In this paper, we propose a number of multi-user detection receiver structures employing adaptive decision feedback equalization and spatial diversity to mitigate the effect of these two types of interference. Computer simulations and experimental sea trials conducted in the North Sea in 1999 were used to test the receiver strategies' performance for a two user near far scenario. Amongst a number of strategies tested, the structure based on recursive successive interference cancellation demonstrated improved performance overall     

Uniform Permian 40Ar/39Ar detrital mica ages in the eastern Qaidam Basin (NW China): where is the source?

New single‐grain ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar detrital white‐mica ages from the Lulehe section at the eastern Qaidam Basin yield uniform Permian ages between 250 ± 3 and 279 ± 3 Ma throughout the whole Cenozoic sequence. This is inconsistent with the present hinterland, which is composed of early Palaeozoic metamorphic units with subordinate early Palaeozoic and few Permian granites. The new data indicate that Permian tectonic units are likely more widespread at the north‐eastern margin of the Tibetan plateau as known at present, particularly within the Qilian Mountains. The preferred explanation is that the Qaidam block represents a rigid indenter, which indented during late Tertiary times into early Palaeozoic orogenic units. This is consistent with recent findings of a NW‐trending sinistral Permian ductile shear zone and a dextral, NW‐trending Tertiary fault system close to the north‐eastern margin of the Qaidam Basin.

稀有金属矿物溶解度对花岗伟晶岩成矿作用的制约

花岗伟晶岩型矿床是稀有金属矿床重要的类型之一。在花岗伟晶岩中,稀有金属元素Li、Be、Nb和Ta主要以独立矿物的形式存在,前人对稀有金属独立矿物在硅酸盐熔体中的溶解度及其影响因素展开了系统研究。本文综合分析了已有的实验数据,其结果表明,影响稀有金属独立矿物溶解度最为重要的2个参数是温度(T)和铝饱和指数(ASI)。因此本文建立了稀有金属独立矿物,尤其是铌锰矿和钽锰矿溶解度,与温度(T)和铝饱和指数(ASI)之间的定量关系: lg [w(Li)/10^-6]=-0.37×[1 000/(T/K)]+4.56,R²=0.44 lg [w(BeO)/10^-6]=-4.21×[1 000/(T/K)]+6.86,R²=0.91 lg [K_sp(Nb)/(mg²·kg^-2)]=-(2.86±0.14)×ASI_(Mn+Li)-(4.95±0.31)×[1 000/(T/K)]+(4.20+0.28),R²=0.86 lg [K_sp(Ta)/(mg²·kg^-2)]=-(2.46±0.11)×ASI_(Mn+Li)-(4.86±0.30)×[1 000/(T/K)]+(4.00+0.30),R²=0.80 式中,温度T为热力学温度,ASI_(Mn+Li)(ASI=Al₂O₃/(CaO+Na₂O+K₂O+Li₂O+MnO),摩尔分数比)和T的适用范围分别为0.6~1.2和1 073~1 373 K的范围内。上述公式为估算硅酸盐熔体中稀有金属含量提供了便利,为量化花岗伟晶岩成矿模型提供了基础。 稀有金属独立矿物溶解度随温度降低和铝饱和指数的增加而急剧降低,因此,在岩浆演化过程中,由岩浆侵位、分离结晶以及流体作用等因素引起的岩浆温度降低和铝饱和指数的增加,是导致稀有金属独立矿物结晶的主要机制。
