Analytic element ground water modeling as a research program (1980 to 2006)

Scientists and engineers who use the analytic element method (AEM) for solving problems of regional ground water flow may be considered a community, and this community can be studied from the perspective of history and philosophy of science. Applying the methods of the Hungarian philosopher of science Imre Lakatos (1922 to 1974), the AEM "research program" is distinguished by its hard core (theoretical basis), protective belt (auxiliary assumptions), and heuristic (problem solving machinery). AEM has emerged relatively recently in the scientific literature and has a relatively modest number of developers and practitioners compared to the more established finite-element and finite-difference methods. Nonetheless, there is evidence to support the assertion that the AEM research program remains in a progressive phase. The evidence includes an expanding publication record, a growing research strand following Professor Otto Strack's book Groundwater Mechanics (1989), the continued placement of AEM researchers in academia, and the further development of innovative analytical solutions and computational solvers/models.     

Dynamics of phosphorus and nitrogen through litter fall and decomposition in a tropical mangrove forest

Distribution, dynamics and mass budget of phosphorus and nitrogen in a red mangrove forest were studied in the Potengi mangrove forest in northern Brazil (lat. 5 degrees 42' and 5 degrees 53'S, long. 35 degrees 5' and 35 degrees 25'W). Tidal hydrology, net primary productivity, leaf litter decomposition rate and standing stock of leaf litter in a red mangrove forest were measured. The results showed that the main reservoir for total P and total N was the sediment with 309 kg ha(-1) and 4619 kg ha(-1) (77% and 95% of the total P and N content in the mangrove forest), respectively, for the two elements. Total P and total N in Rhizophora mangle trees accounted for 145+/-14 kg ha(-1) and 216+/-23 kg ha(-1) (23% and 5% of the total P and N in the mangrove forest). The estimated average export rates for P and N through leaf litter are 0.5 kg ha(-1)yr(-1) and 1.6 kg ha(-1)yr(-1) respectively. Our measurements support previous results in concluding that mangrove forests efficiently retain P and N.     

基于扎根理论的节事场所与会展场馆场所依赖差异——以2011西安世界园艺博览会园区和琶洲国际会展中心为例

通过两个典型案例的对比,以2011西安世界园艺博览会园区和广州琶洲国际会展中心为研究区域,采用深度访谈和参与观察等手段获取研究资料,运用扎根理论分别对节事场所和会展场所的场所依赖的维度进行挖掘和提炼,归纳出个体、社会、场所和事件四个主要范畴,在此基础上比较研究节事场所和会展场馆场所依赖的差异。研究发现:观众在节事场所当中把个人视为"游憩者",节事场所被看作是一个"游憩空间",具有"根基性场所"的特点,观众在与节事场所的互动中倾向于情感性的依赖;观众在会展场馆当中把个人视为"消费者",会展场馆被看作是一个"消费空间",具有"工具性场所"的特点,观众在与会展场所的互动中倾向于功能性的依赖。     

带线约束的摄影测量网格变分精化算法

针对城市场景三维重建模型在有线特征的边缘区域过于平滑的问题,提出一种带线约束的摄影测量网格变分精化方法。算法以初始重建网格模型为基础,引入3个能量项,将网格精化问题转化成能量下降问题。首先结合所有的影像信息构建影像一致性约束项,然后对网格表面顶点附加正则化约束,最后引入三维线特征约束,将3个能量项加权相加后离散化到每个顶点,得到梯度变化值。采用梯度下降法,使顶点沿着梯度方向移动,当能量不再下降或迭代一定次数时,即得到了精化后的网格模型。试验结果表明,本文算法能较好地保持边缘特征,与现有的泊松重建算法相比,网格的质量更高,视觉效果更好。

地下水中氧化还原电位影响着各种氮化物的分布和浓度变化。计算资料已经用于确定这些化合物之间的Eh—pH边界值。计算条件与地下水中不同形式氮化物的实际资料有所不同。本文给出了一个经验性的氮化物的Eh—pH曲线图,这个经验性的Eh—pH曲线图与地下水中氮化物的实际分布相一致。     

双河拱坝开裂的反分析数值模拟

通过对垫江双河拱坝的开裂原因的初步分析,建立了地基与大坝的三维网格模型,运用自己开发的TFINE计算程序,对拱坝不同高程的地基做了不同工况条件的敏感分析计算。得出如下结论:大坝的自重和坝中上高程地基减弱是造成拱坝下游面最初发生纵向裂纹的主要原因;水压和泥沙的压力能增大下游面的受压,并减少下游面第二主拉应力的产生,如减少水荷载,则下游坝面仍能在自重作用下出现裂纹。     

可拓方法在地震信息系统安全评价中的应用研究

地震信息系统在地震监测预报预警、地震灾害风险防控、地震应急响应与处置等方面发挥着重要的作用,但地震行业尚未建立完整的信息系统安全评价体系,且相关研究开展较少。为了更好地识别安全风险,提高地震信息网络安全防护能力,作者利用可拓方法建立信息系统评价模型,通过程序自动进行指标权重和关联度的计算,输出系统评价等级。实例表明：可拓方法可为地震信息系统安全评价、网络安全等级保护等提供支撑,并具有应用价值。本研究为评价指标的进一步优化调整,以及自动评价软件的完善和应用提供重要的基础。
