Reinforced concrete scaled columns under cyclic actions

In the area of reduced-scale model testing, increasing the size of model structures as a means of improving the model performance is often inhibited by the capacity limitation of the available seismic testing facilities. This was the case in a recent experimental programme conducted at NTUA in which several 1:5.5-scale model frames were tested on an earthquake simulator. In order to improve the model reliability, the following measures were taken: strictly obeying the geometric scaling in almost all aspects; using deformed bars as model reinforcement; and using stone-aggregate microconcrete for constructing the models, etc. To evaluate the effectiveness of these measures, a parallel column test programme was conducted in which duplicates of typical columns in the test model frames were prepared, along with those of large sizes following similitude laws. The column specimens were tested under reversals of lateral load. Besides the scale effects, general rules regarding the influences of transverse confinement and axial force on the ductility and strength of columns were also confirmed on the small-scale model columns.

Radial oscillations of coronal loops and microwave radiation from solar flares

We consider the damping mechanisms for the radial oscillations of solar coronal loops in the approximation of a thin magnetic flux tube. We show that the free tube oscillations can have a high Q if the plasma density inside the magnetic flux tube is much higher than the density outside. We analyze the effect of radial coronal-loop magnetic-field oscillations on the modulation of the microwave radiation from solar flares. In the case of a nonthermal gyrosynchrotron mechanism, the fluxes from optically thin and optically thick sources are modulated in antiphase. Based on our model, we diagnose the flare plasma. For the event of May 23, 1990, we estimate the spectral index for accelerated electrons, α≈4.4, and the magnetic-field strength in the region of energy release, B≈190 G.

Magnetic Anomalies on the Tree Trunks

Magnetic measurements of soil and tree bark adjacent to a busy highway revealed a significant variation in the concentration of magnetic particles with distance from the highway. Further more, forest-facing tree-bark contains significantly more magnetic particles than road-facing tree-bark. Magnetic particles were detected both on the bark of the maple trees and in the first centimeter of the soil cover (O/A horizon). Stability of saturation isothermal magnetization (SIRM) and hysteresis parameters of the soil indicates the presence of single domain (SD/PSD) magnetic carriers. Measurements of the tree bark hysteresis parameters and SIRM detect a significant lower coercivity component that we interpret to be an indication of more abundant pseudo-single domain (PSD) type magnetic grains. Magnetic measurements around the perimeters of eight tree trunks reveal magnetic carriers whose distribution is antipodal to the source direction (highway). We interpret our observation by adopting an air circulation model, where suspended PSD/SD particles are carried in the air stream. The air stream from the heavy traffic lowers the amount of moisture on the tree trunk surfaces facing the highway and thus reduces an adhesive potential on this side. Therefore, more particles can stay on the moist side of the trunk protected from the direct airflow.     

Tracking and orbit determination performance of the GRAS instrument on MetOp-A

The global navigation satellite system receiver for atmospheric sounding (GRAS) on MetOp-A is the first European GPS receiver providing dual-frequency navigation and occultation measurements from a spaceborne platform on a routine basis. The receiver is based on ESA’s AGGA-2 correlator chip, which implements a high-quality tracking scheme for semi-codeless P(Y) code tracking on the L1 and L2 frequency. Data collected with the zenith antenna on MetOp-A have been used to perform an in-flight characterization of the GRAS instrument with focus on the tracking and navigation performance. Besides an assessment of the receiver noise and systematic measurement errors, the study addresses the precise orbit determination accuracy achievable with the GRAS receiver. A consistency on the 5 cm level is demonstrated for reduced dynamics orbit solutions computed independently by four different agencies and software packages. With purely kinematic solutions, 10 cm accuracy is obtained. As a part of the analysis, an empirical antenna offset correction and preliminary phase center correction map are derived, which notably reduce the carrier phase residuals and improve the consistency of kinematic orbit determination results.

基于植被光合有效辐射资料研究中国地区植被大气反馈作用

本文采用中国地区基于卫星观测的植被光合有效辐射资料(FPAR)和月平均气候数据(1982-2000年)来分析中国区域陆面植被与气温、降水的反馈作用.通过计算和分析超前滞后相关系数和反馈系数发现:春、夏季FPAR超前气温一个月相关系数在全国大部分地区为负值,反映出植被生长旺盛,可以降低局地气温.春、秋两季气温与FPAR的同期相关系数较大.夏季降水超前FPAR一个月的正相关性反映出夏季降水对于植被生长存在促进作用.在中国长江流域以南区域,植被对于气温的反馈系数为一致正值,可达0.5 ℃(0.1FPAR)^-1;在30°N以北区域显示出一致的负反馈,可达-0.42 ℃(0.1FPAR)^-1.FPAR对降水全年反馈系数全国区域平均可达-2.12 cm month^-1(0.1FPAR)^-1.不同植被类型、不同季节的植被反馈效应也存在差异.植被反馈系数可以用来验证动态植被模式计算的植被大气反馈作用.     

Experimental p-y loops for estimating seismic soil-pile interaction

Seismic soil-pile interaction is evaluated in this study based on back-calculated p-y loops constructed from sampled data of pile bending moments. Fundamental properties of p-y loops are implemented to derive distributed springs and dashpots, thereby quantifying soil-pile interaction in the realm of a Beam on Dynamic Winkler Foundation modeling. The procedure is validated by means of well-documented centrifuge tests of a single pile supported structure founded on a two-layer soil profile that comprises of soft clay overlying dense sand. Two shaking levels of a real earthquake motion applied at the base of the soil profile were examined and the generated seismic p-y loops were compared to cyclic p-y curves commonly used in pile design practice. The results demonstrate the strong influence of intensity of the input motion on seismic p-y loops while cyclic p-y curves established for soft clays tend to overestimate soil stiffness under strong excitation. Typical sets of recorded and computed structural response are presented, denoting the ability of the BDWF model related to p-y loops in reproducing adequately fundamental aspects of seismic soil-pile interaction.
