A two‐dimensional model of hydraulic performance of stormwater infiltration systems

Stormwater infiltration systems are a popular method for urban stormwater control. They are often designed using an assumption of one‐dimensional saturated outflow, although this is not very accurate for many typical designs where two‐dimensional (2D) flows into unsaturated soils occur. Available 2D variably saturated flow models are not commonly used for design because of their complexity and difficulties with the required boundary conditions. A purpose‐built stormwater infiltration system model was thus developed for the simulation of 2D flow from a porous storage. The model combines a soil moisture–based model for unsaturated soils with a ponded storage model and uses a wetting front‐tracking approach for saturated flows. The model represents the main physical processes while minimizing input data requirements. The model was calibrated and validated using data from laboratory 2D stormwater infiltration trench experiments. Calibrations were undertaken using five different combinations of calibration data to examine calibration data requirements. It was found that storage water levels could be satisfactorily predicted using parameters calibrated with either data from laboratory soils tests or observed water level data, whereas the prediction of soil moistures was improved through the addition of observed soil moisture data to the calibration data set.

Forced secondary resonances at the 3 : 1 commensurability

For the 3 : 1 Jovian resonance problem, the time scales of the two degrees of freedom of the resonant Hamiltonian are well-separated [5]. With the adiabatic approximation, the solution for the fast oscillations can be found in terms of the slowly varying variables. Thus the rapidly oscillating terms in the slow oscillation equations can be treated as forced terms. We refer to the resonance between the forcing and intrinsic frequencies as a forced secondary one in this paper. We discuss the forced secondary resonances in asteroidal motion at the 3 : 1 commensurability by using Wisdom's method. The results show that the orbits situated originally near the resonance will leave the neighbourhood of resonance and tend to the separatrices and critical points for different energies, respectively. We have not found any stochastic web as expected in this case. Moreover, we study the problem of validity on the approximation of a system.The Project Supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China.

球近似艾黎-海斯卡宁均衡模型分析

针对传统的均衡重力异常方式基于平面近似,积分范围较小、计算公式的适用性受限、表征的信息量有限的问题,该文在球坐标下分析艾黎-海斯卡宁(Airy-Hesikanen)均衡模型。以计算点向径为半径,将地形分为布格球壳和粗糙地形两部分,计算其地形影响和均衡改正。在实验区,选用补偿深度21km、密度差0.678g/cm3的模型参数,采用该文公式和传统公式计算均衡重力异常,并比较分析其计算值。结果表明,以球近似Airy-Hesikanen均衡模型计算均衡重力异常值,在小积分范围以及平坦地区,与传统公式计算值的精度相当;但随着积分半径增加,球近似Airy-Hesikanen均衡模型计算值精度不断提高、变化更平缓,说明球近似AiryHesikanen均衡模型代替平面近似Airy-Hesikanen均衡模型应用于重力问题研究更为符合地球实际情况。     

Dynamics of warm inflation with gauge fields in Bianchi type I universe model

In this paper, we study the dynamics of warm inflation in which slow-roll inflation is driven by non-Abelian gauge fields. To this end, we use the geometry of locally rotationally symmetric Bianchi type I universe model. We construct dynamical equations, i.e., first model field equation, energy conservation equations and equation of motion under slow-roll approximation. In order to discuss inflationary perturbations, we evaluate parameters like scalar and tensor power spectra as well as scalar and tensor spectral indices. We also evaluate inflaton, directional Hubble parameter, slow-roll and perturbation parameters as well as tensor-scalar ratio as a function of inflaton during intermediate and logamediate inflationary eras. It is concluded that anisotropic inflationary universe model with non-Abelian gauge fields remains compatible with WMAP7.     

Analytical derivation of the probability for the escape of stars from colliding galaxies

We use the impulse approximation to derive analytical formulae for the escape probability from a simple binary system that interacts with a third body. The binary system is made up of a mass-less body in circular orbit around a massive object, and we assume that the two massive bodies follow a Schuster (or Plummer) distribution. Within the ranges imposed by the impulsive approximation to the parameters of the encounter, we find good agreement between our results and those obtained from numerical experiments.     

Generalized Born inversion of seismic reflection data

Summary . Born inverse methods give accurate and stable results when the source wavelet is impulsive. However, in many practical applications (reflection seismology) an impulsive source cannot be realized and the inversion needs to be generalized to include an arbitrary source function. In this paper, we present a Born solution to the seismic inverse problem which can accommodate an arbitrary source function and give accurate and stable results. It is shown that the form of the generalized inversion algorithm reduces to a Wiener shaping ***filter, which is solved efficiently using a Levinson recursion algorithm. Numerical examples of synthetic and real field data illustrate the validity of our method.     

水深对软刚臂单点系泊FPSO动力响应的影响

系泊系统的定位能力是浅水油田作业的软刚臂式单点系泊FPSO安全作业的重要保障,为研究不同水深/吃水比下单点系泊系统的受力性能,针对一艘16万吨级软刚臂单点系泊FPSO,在线性三维势流理论的基础上,基于多体动力学方法,建立FPSO-系泊腿-软刚臂的耦合模型,采用Newman近似法和Pinkster近似法分析了FPSO所受二阶波浪力,在时域内计算了不同水深/吃水比对系泊系统动力响应性能的影响。结果表明,随着水深/吃水比的增加,Newman近似法计算得到二阶波浪力先增大后减小,引起单点系泊系统载荷先增大后减小;而Pinkster近似法计算得到的二阶波浪力逐渐减下,引起单点载荷逐渐减下。在浅水条件下,Pinkster近似法具有较好的适用性,Newman近似法严重低估了FPSO所受的二阶波浪力;在深水条件下,Newman近似法能满足工程计算的要求;适用两种方法的临界水深/吃水比为1.64。

Including Geological Uncertainty and Economic Analysis in a Rapid Simulation of Hydrocarbon Exploration

Manly's approximation method has been applied to hydrocarbon discovery process modeling in order to approximate the expected value and the standard deviation of the total discovery volume for a given exploratory effort. A major benefit of this method is that it allows the model to run much faster than the regular simulation method, yet it gives accurate results. This paper extends the benefit of Manly's approach by allowing the approximation method to incorporate the uncertainties in geological parameters that drive Manly's approximation, in order to provide an approximation of the complete distribution of total discovery volume that can result from exploration activity. In addition, it allows the model to include economic parameters into an evaluation of the economic worth of the results of exploration activity, producing distributions of net present value within a short period of time. The offshore Nova Scotia Shelf Basin is selected for demonstrating the methodology.
