A wind tunnel investigation on the transverse motion of aeolian sand

A wind tunnel experiment was performed to investigate aeolian grain motions in the transverse direction, which is perpendicular to the incoming flow and parallels the sand bed. The trajectories in the horizontal plane were recorded by high-speed camera. Statistical analysis of 630 trajectories shows that both the motion orientation and the time-averaged speed follow Gaussian distributions. An exclusive method was used to analyze the driving mechanism. It was concluded that the three-dimensional turbulent air flow, rather than the spin of grain or grain–bed collisions, controls the transverse motion.     

致密砂岩储层含气测井特征及定量评价

致密砂岩储层孔隙度低、渗透率低、非均质性强,气层所对应的测井响应特征较为复杂,气层识别和评价难度较大、多解性突出。传统上,利用常规测井曲线进行含气性评价多是定性评价,在利用智能识别法评价含气性时,也是利用分类模型进行定性评价;而利用常规测井资料定量评价含气性比较困难。本文首先以岩心、地质、试气资料和常规测井曲线为基础,利用交会图法进行致密砂岩含气特征分析,建立含气性定性评价指标;然后,利用广义回归神经网络（GRNN）预测含气量和含水量,构造含气性和含水性指示曲线,定量评价致密砂岩的含气性;最后,定性评价和定量评价综合使用,以评价致密砂岩含气性,并在苏里格地区盒₈段进行应用,取得了较好的应用效果。     

Rock Mass Deformation Characteristics in High-Steep Slopes Influenced by Open-Pit to Underground Mining

In Daye Iron Mine, the open-pit mining has ended and the underground mining started in 2003. The present pit slopes are as high as 430 m and the slope angle is up to 43°. During the process of open-pit to underground mining, the high-steep pit slopes would be affected by both open-pit mining and underground mining, and its deformation characteristics would become more complex. So in this paper, the trinity method of numerical simulation, model experiment and field test was adopted to analyze the displacement and stress fields systematically. The results show that: (1) Prominent rebound deformation occurs near the slope foot, which is induced by the unloading in open-pit mining. When it is backfilled to 0 m level, the rebound deformation decreases, which indicate that backfilling mass can restrict the deformation and improve the slope stability; (2) Subsidence dominates the slope deformation in open-pit to underground mining and it increases with an increasing elevation of monitoring point; the maximum horizontal displacement occurs in the lower part of the slopes, because the backfilled part is squeezed by both the north slope and the south slope, and it has a lower elastic modulus than the previous orebody; (3) The stress and its variability near the slope foot are much larger than other places, indicating that the slope foot is most affected by stress redistribution and stress concentration may occur here; the stress at other stress monitoring points changes little, indicating that the influence of open-pit to underground mining is local; (4) The effect of underground mining on the deformation of the faults is not prominent; (5) Mining operations in near-ground part affect more on the variation of deformation and stress of pit slopes than that in deeper part.     

DFT study of the carbonation on mineral aerosol surface models of olivine: effect of water

Mineral aerosols play a significant role in gas–solid interfacial and atmospheric chemistry. Carbonation of olivine aerosol, which takes place in a multiphase reaction processes, can be an effective means to reduce the concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide. Due to the presence of a huge reserve of silicate minerals in nature, olivine aerosol could be an ideal potential raw material for mineral carbonation for its higher reactivity with H₂O and CO₂. However, quantitative information about the carbonation process on the surface of natural olivine aerosol is not available. In this paper, calculations on the carbonation reaction processes with and without a H₂O molecule using a periodic olivine model has been carried out via the density functional theory. The pathways and their corresponding energies and structures in the carbonation reactions have been established, and the effect of water as means to reduce the energy barriers and stabilize the carbonated structures by forming hydrogen bonds has been confirmed.

三叠纪牙形石的古环境与古地理意义

牙形石广泛分布于寒武纪至三叠纪的海洋里。三叠纪牙形石的种类、形态、大小和产出频率受海水盐度、深度、温度和水动力条件等因素控制，不同的牙形石生态特征即牙形石相反映不同的沉积环境，所以，根据三叠纪牙形石相和牙形石特征属种的丰度，不但可区分三叠纪不同的沉积相区（台地相区、台地边缘相区、盆地相区），恢复三叠纪古地理面貌，而且可划分出牙形石生物地理区。中国早三叠世牙形石归属特提斯生物大区亚洲生物省，并可进一步划分出两个生物亚省和若干生态区。     

永定河形成时代研究


通过对永定河冲洪积物的研究发现,永定河形成前后的沉积环境明显不同。钻探资料表明永定河形成前本地区沉积环境主要为湖泊相,当时湖水宁静,沉积物主要为泥岩和粉砂。永定河形成时洪水裹携大量碎屑形成巨厚的泥石流堆积,沉积环境为冲洪积相,主要为砂砾石、砂、粉砂和粘土互层,形成巨大的冲洪积扇。通过新5孔钻孔岩芯273块古地磁样品的系统剩磁测试,获得了该钻孔岩芯的古地磁极性序列,对比国际地磁极性年表,认为该钻孔岩芯剖面 0～96.59m以正极性带为主,对应布容正极性时,其地质时代为0～0.78Ma;  96.59～246.79m则以反极性带为主,对应松山反极性时,其地质时代为0.78～2.58Ma;  246.79～413.64m以正极性带为主,则对应高斯正极性时,其地质时代为2.58～3.58Ma,属于新近纪上新世。研究推测永定河最早的沉积物为上新世形成,距今3.33～3.58Ma。

北部湾东部沉积物结构和碳酸盐含量变化对末次海侵和环流作用的响应

为了揭示末次冰消期以来北部湾东部沉积环境的整体变化,深入认识环流对北部湾沉积的控制作用,对位于北部湾东部的15只柱样进行了粒度、碳酸盐含量和C/N分析,并测定了其中11只柱样的AMS14 C年代.结果表明,在末次冰消期随海平面上升,北部湾沉积环境由陆向海转变,沉积物碳酸盐含量总体递增,而C/N值则递减,其间伴随发生于全新世早期的碳酸盐低值事件,在北部湾深水区的柱样中也有记录.全新世中期海平面基本稳定以后,稳定的C/N数值表示有机质来源趋于稳定,而碳酸盐含量受钙质生物生产力不同(南高北低)和陆源输入的区域性差异影响出现不同变化.与C/N分析结合,碳酸盐含量曲线可用于地层划分与对比.北部湾环流可能形成于7ka BP左右,影响了沉积物的输运与沉积.全新世中晚期沉积厚度存在区域差异,海南岛西侧大于2.0m,湾顶多介于0.8~2.0m,而涠洲岛西南海域厚度相对最小,可能与湾北物质难以向南输运,而湾南物质主要在琼州海峡西口外卸载有关.
