A note on the effects of a thin visco-elastic mud layer on small amplitude water-wave propagation

In this note we investigated the effects of a thin visco-elastic mud layer on wave propagation. Within the framework of linear water-wave theory, analytical solutions are obtained for damping rate, dispersion relation between wave frequency and wave number, and velocity components in the water column and mud layer. The wave attenuation rate reaches a maximum value when the mud layer thickness is about the same as the mud boundary layer thickness. Heavier mud has a weaker effect on the wave damping. However, the wave attenuation rate does not always decrease as the elastic shear modulus increases. In the range of small values for elastic shear modulus, the wave attenuation can be amplified quite significantly. The current solutions are compared with experimental data with different wave conditions and mud properties. In general, good agreements are observed.

鲁西地块中生代构造格局及其形成背景

结合近几年来鲁西地区1∶5万区域地质调查等成果,重点论述了鲁西地区中生代构造特征与盆地原型。提出中生代构造层次总体在垂向上可分为三个主要构造层,分别称为上部、中部和下部,并分别被中—下侏罗统、上侏罗统—下白垩统和上白垩统角度不整合覆盖,所以,相应地可将鲁西地块的中生代构造变形分为三个阶段:印支期、燕山中期和燕山晚期;平面上变形样式总体表现为三种构造样式,即:1印支期的近东西走向的宽缓—紧闭褶皱及逆冲构造;2燕山中期的北北东或南北走向的厢状褶皱—坡坪式逆冲系统;3燕山晚期的北东走向的冲断—走滑断裂带。但是,鲁西地区燕山期的构造变形特征和原型盆地有所变化,这种变化是基底构造格局及构造变形在空间上差异叠合的结果。综合研究表明,鲁西地块及邻区燕山期构造是在西太平洋大陆边缘弧的挤压构造背景下,陆内壳下拆沉和壳内挤出—逃逸构造的综合动力作用下形成的。     

砂宝斯金矿区多矿物脉特征及其对砂岩的改造

砂宝斯矿区的成矿围岩为长石石英砂岩，砂岩被多期次的石英脉、方解石脉和高岭石脉所穿切，这些多矿物脉是热液流体运移的结果。矿物脉形成过程中对围岩进行了热改造，使砂岩发生了压溶作用、胶结作用和溶蚀作用，形成了蚀变砂岩。由于流体酸碱性和温压的变化，孔隙水介质的性质由酸性向碱性转变，在酸性成岩环境下形成的蚀变高岭石、伊利石将转变成绿泥石、绢云母等。绢云母的大量出现，石英次生加大和自生粘土矿物的形成均是热液流体活动的产物。     

Late Holocene slip rate and average recurrence interval of great earthquakes on the Shangzhi segment of the Yilan‐Yitong Fault Zone,northeastern China: Constraints from paleo‐earthquakes and historical written records

The Yilan‐Yitong Fault Zone (YYFZ) is considered to be the key branch of the Tancheng‐Lujiang Fault Zone (TLFZ) in northeastern China. Although the Mesozoic and early Cenozoic deformation of the YYFZ has been studied intensively over the past century, few estimates of slip rate and recurrence interval of large earthquakes in the late Quaternary, which are the two most important parameters for understanding the potential seismic hazard of this crucial structure, were obtained. Based on integrated interpretations of high resolution satellite images and detailed geologic and geomorphic mapping, linear landforms were identified, including fault scarps and troughs, along the Shangzhi segment of the YYFZ, which exceeds 25 km in length. Synthesized results of trench excavations and differential GPS measurements of terrace surfaces indicate that two events (E1, E2) occurred along the Shangzhi segment during the late Holocene, which resulted in 3.2 ±0.1 m of total vertical co‐seismic displacement with clear features of thrust motion. ¹⁴C dating of samples suggests that event E1 occurred between 440 ±30 years BP and 180 ±30 years BP and that event E2 occurred between 4 090 ±30 years BP and 3 880 ±30 years BP, which indicates that the minimum vertical slip rate of the Shangzhi segment of the YYFZ has been approximately 0.8 ±0.03 mm/year during the late Holocene. Constraints from paleo events and the slip rate suggest that the average recurrence interval of major earthquakes on the YYFZ is 3 800 ±200 years. Historical documents in Korea show that event E1 possibly corresponds to the earthquake that occurred in AD 1810 (the Qing Dynasty in Chinese history) in the Ningguta area, which had surface‐wave magnitude (Ms) of 6.8–7.5. Studies of kinematics show that the right‐lateral strike‐slip with a reverse component has been dominant along the YYFZ during the late Holocene.     

毛乌素沙地西南缘灌丛沙丘沉积物的粒度和元素特征

对毛乌素沙地白刺(Nitraria tangutorum)灌丛沙丘沉积物粒度和元素特征进行了采样分析.结果表明:灌丛沙丘沉积物来源单一,几乎全部由丘间地物质组成,其粒度和元素特征与丘间地物质极其相似;相对而言,灌丛沙丘沉积物比丘间地物质含有更多粗颗粒物,主要因丘间地可做跃移运动的中沙和细沙更易被灌丛阻挡而堆积;灌丛沙丘沉积物中大部分元素含量比丘间地物质低,主要因这些元素易被淋溶迁移到丘间地富集;灌丛沙丘发育以来,虽然其沉积环境存在波动,但相对稳定,未发生过显著变化.     

节理岩体三维偶应力弹性理论

节理的存在使得岩体的力学特性十分复杂。偶应力理论考虑了介质内颗粒尺度的影响，它以具有一定尺度的微元体为研究对象，引进了偶应力及弯曲曲率的概念，从而考虑了弯曲效应对介质变形特性的影响，可以用来解决岩土工程中的地下洞室底鼓、顶板开裂及反倾向层状岩体的弯曲倾倒等弯曲变形及弯曲破坏问题。本文考虑了节理间距的影响，对节理岩体的空间间题提出了弹性偶应力理论并建立了有限元计算模式，最后通过算例说明用偶应力理论解决上述问题的有效性。     

四川盆地东部中二叠统茅口组热液活动特征

四川盆地中二叠统茅口组存在丰富的热液流体活动。在野外剖面和岩心观察的基础上,利用多种分析测试方法,对四川盆地东部茅口组碳酸盐岩中的热液活动特征进行了探讨。研究区茅口组热液活动包括2类,一类为硅质热液,表现为薄层硅质岩或硅质团块;另一类为碳酸盐型热液,表现为粗晶方解石和白云石充填在张性构造裂缝中或呈"雪片状"集合体,偶见少量黄铁矿、闪锌矿等金属硫化物伴生。硅质岩主量元素之间的关系表明硅质来源具有多样性,是热液硅与壳源硅的混合;黄铁矿、闪锌矿原位S同位素δ34S介于-3.91‰~-6.87‰之间,推测可能受到了微生物和基性岩浆岩的双重影响;方解石脉和具鞍状双晶的白云石脉普遍具有Ca O高于标准计量、相对富Sr和U、贫REE和Ti、Ce/Ce*明显负异常、Eu/Eu*主体正异常、Y正异常等特征,表明碳酸盐脉为热液活动的产物,流体来源也呈现出火山活动相关流体与富钙地下水混合的特点。闪锌矿富集Ge和Cd,Zn/Cd及Zn/Fe值反映了中等成矿温度。硅质岩和碳酸盐流体包裹体均一温度变化范围较大,介于54.7~294.3℃之间,与稀土元素和微量元素比值所揭示的特征吻合。研究结果表明,穿层状硅质结核和团块的首次出现往往标志着茅口组热液活动的开始,而张性构造裂缝和碳酸盐型热液活动带来的围岩白云化作用则有效地改善了白云岩储集层的物性。     

论透闪石玉命名及分类

德穆尔１８６３年发表了对来自我国圆明园的和田玉及翡翠的矿物学分析成果,将它们分别命名为“Ｎｅｐｈｒｉｔｅ”和“Ｊａｄｅｉｔｅ”。这两个词后来被译成“软玉”和“硬玉”一直沿用至今。其实,它们之间硬度并无不同,“软玉”一词在矿物学界和玉石界使用中也有一定混乱。根据玉石命名原则及和田玉的矿物成分和它在我国悠久的命名历史,建议“软玉”一词以“透闪石玉”取代。透闪石玉是由微晶透闪石组成、具毡状结构、符合工艺要求的玉石。可按地质产状、颜色、工艺等级、并考虑传统名称进一步划分品种。按产状可分为子玉、山玉、山流水等,按颜色分为白玉、黄玉、青玉、墨玉、碧玉等。     

五台山西部狐狸山含金韧性剪切带的地球化学研究

狐狸山金矿区，在无蚀变作用参与的韧性变形过程中，岩石化学成分发生了明显的变化。但大多数微量元素含量变化不大，稀土元素配分模式基本不变，它们可以反映原岩的特点。蚀变糜棱岩型矿体与围岩相比，稀土配分模式、亲硫元素Ａｕ、Ａｇ、Ｃｕ和两性元素Ａｓ、Ｓｂ含量差别显著，尤其是Ａｕ含量，前者是后者的百倍～几万倍，金的成矿作用主要与韧性变形后期富金流体的蚀变作用关系密切。
