Preliminary Research on the Characteristics of the M_S8.0 Wenchuan Earthquake Hazard

The M_S8.0 Wenchuan earthquake on May 12, 2008 caused heavy casualties and economic loss. According to the field investigations, the characteristics can be described as follows: The meizoseismal region with an intensity of XI shows an obviously zonal distribution and suffered serious destruction from the earthquake, and the destruction perpendicular to the earthquake surface rupture decreased sharply. At the same time, the intensity X and IX regions perpendicular to the rupture are narrow and therefore their coverage area is small. The intensity on both sides of the rupture attenuates rapidly, but intensity VII and the VI regions are wide, the latter covering about 240,000 km~2. In intensity VI region, the damage area perpendicular to the rupture in the southern part is much larger than that of the northern part. Also, much new understanding about destruction types and destructive modes for all kinds of buildings, landforms and terrain is achieved in this paper.     

高强石膏生产中尾矿的开发应用

因蒸压法生产高强石膏，尾矿率在20％以上，若丢弃，既浪费资源，增加生产成本，又造成新的环境污染，本文从研究尾矿赋存状态和化学成份着手，根据高强石膏在不同的外部条件下（温度、时间，压力，真空度）可互相转化的理论，采用不同的催化转晶工艺，生产出了超过国家标准的产品，经一年多的工艺性生产证明，该研究成果已转化为生产力。     

加权总体最小二乘的地面解析摄影测量算法

在分析加权总体最小二乘解与经典最小二乘解的区别和联系的基础上,将加权总体最小二乘平差理论首次应用于地面摄影测量的解析相对定向算法中,并给出了基于相对定向模型的加权总体最小二乘的算法步骤。同时,将Procrustes理论引入到解析绝对定向模型中,推导了基于Procrustes理论的加权总体最小二乘解。具体算例证明了加权总体最小二乘平差理论应用于地面摄影测量处理中能够获得精确稳定的解析参数。     

紫金山矿区南山坪矿段承压水储存规律研究

紫金山矿区南山坪矿段岩浆岩分布约占矿段面积的90％,主要为燕山晚期中细粒花岗闪长岩、花岗闪长斑岩和似斑状花岗闪长岩,次为燕山早期中粗粒似斑状二长花岗岩和中细粒花岗岩,脉岩及次火山岩脉。通过对矿段内地质特征、富水性、断裂构造导水特征及水质检验成果等资料分析研究,初步揭露了矿段内硫化物矿床承压水形成原因与储存规律。

A fluorescent approach to the identification of grout injected into fissures and pore spaces

A new fluorescent approach was developed to visualize grouting processes. The evaluation of the effect of grouting is carried out by methods based mainly on physical measurements such as permeability and porosity characteristics. However, these estimates do not necessarily correlate with practical grouting data. In this paper, the distributions of various grout mixtures containing fluorescent substances were clearly visualized under ultraviolet light, using a borehole television system or a microscope. Since this approach enabled direct observation of grout distribution, it is considered that this approach is useful for analysis of grouting mechanisms, designing grout curtains, etc.     

On predicting boat drift for search and rescue

A theoretical model for predicting boat drift for search and rescue missions is presented in this work. The drift model is based on the law of physics which govern the motion of a floating body in a given wind and surface current field. In terms of the empirical aerodynamics force coefficients of the boat or any other drifting object, external wind field, and current field, the drift velocity of the boat being searched for can be obtained. The uncertainty of the characteristics of the boat’s drift is evaluated by interval analysis of the uncertainties of the characteristics of the drifting boat and external forcing fields. The search area expansion and the source of uncertainty are systematically evaluated. The current statistical model-based operational definitions of leeway drift, leeway rate, leeway angle, divergence angle, leeway divergence, downwind component of leeway, and crosswind component of leeway are clarified in light of the presented theoretical model. The divergence angle and leeway divergence are evaluated through the interval analysis of the uncertainty of the parameters involved.
