结构性土二元介质本构模型及破损率影响因素的研究

岩土类材料是非均质的具有微缺陷的天然材料,岩土破损力学将岩土材料抽象成由结构块和结构带组成的非均质二元结构体。破损率演化方程反映了岩土材料在外部荷载作用下,结构块向结构带动态变化程度的过程。从细观尺度上分析结构性土体变形、破坏过程发展机制,揭示土体在荷载作用下结构块向结构带转化的过程。最后,针对杨陵黄土,通过三轴剪切试验,研究围压、含水率对破损率演化规律的影响。研究结果表明,单参数模型的破损率与围压和含水率没有关系,使从实验上证明参数模型的破损率是大主应变的函数。     

粗粒料强度和变形的大型三轴试验研究

通过大型三轴试验,对高低围压下粗粒料的应力应变特性、抗剪强度、内摩擦角和颗粒破碎特性进行了对比分析,并探讨了不同泥岩含量对堆石坝料强度的影响。结果表明：中高围压下粗粒料表现出应变硬化特性和剪缩,强度包线和不同围压下的最大主应力比与剪胀率的关系近似为线性,而低围压下主要表现为应变软化和剪胀,抗剪强度包线等表现为非线性。随着围压的增加,主应力比降低、颗粒破碎率增大、内摩擦角减小。泥岩含量的增加使颗粒表面的摩擦阻力与粒间的咬合力减弱,导致抗剪强度降低。     

基于Weibull分布的红砂岩颗粒崩解破碎演化规律

红砂岩在我国分布广泛,由于含水率的变化使其崩解破碎十分显著。采用湖南株洲地区的红砂岩样,进行室内静态与扰动崩解试验。基于Weibull分布建立了红砂岩颗粒崩解破碎级配曲线演化模型,分析了模型参数λ与k的意义。分析表明,Weibull分布参数λ与k的大小及变化速率体现了红砂岩颗粒崩解破碎的演化过程。在建立模型的基础上,求得了相对崩解比的计算公式,并验证了计算公式的正确性。依据试验结果与模型计算值,讨论了耐崩解性指数与崩解比的异同及所采用试验方法的不同对试验结果造成的影响。在已有成果的基础上,验证了Weibull分布模型应用于岩石颗粒崩解破碎演化过程的可行性。     

Diving associated coral breakage in Hong Kong: Differential susceptibility to damage

We conducted the first quantitative assessment of coral breakage along a gradient of diving activities in Hong Kong, the most densely populated city in southern China. A survey of six 1 × 25 m transects at seven sites revealed a total of 81 broken corals, among which 44% were branching, 44% plate-like and 12% massive. There were 3–19 broken colonies per site. At most study sites, the percentage of broken corals exceeded the recommended no-action threshold of 4%, suggesting that management intervention is justified. There was a significant positive correlation between the number of broken coral colonies and the number of divers visiting the site. The branching Acropora and the plate-like Montipora suffered from much higher frequency of damage than their relative abundance, raising the concern that the cumulative impact of such differential susceptibility to breakage may affect coral community composition.     

颗粒破碎及剪胀对钙质砂抗剪强度影响研究

钙质砂是海洋沉积物中的一种,富含碳酸钙或其他难溶碳酸盐类物质的特殊介质。由于其颗粒质脆,受力后易产生破碎,表现出与常规陆源砂不同的力学性质。通过对取自南沙群岛永暑礁附近海域的钙质砂进行三轴剪切试验,分析了钙质砂颗粒破碎与剪胀对其抗剪强度的影响。试验结果表明,颗粒破碎与剪胀对钙质砂强度有着重要影响,低围压下剪胀对其强度的影响远大于颗粒破碎,随着围压的增加,钙质砂颗粒破碎加剧,剪胀影响越来越小,而颗粒破碎的影响则越来越显著;颗粒破碎对强度的影响随着围压的增大而增大,当破碎达到一定程度后颗粒破碎渐趋减弱,其影响也渐趋于稳定。     

晶体及矿物颗粒大小对岩土材料力学性质的影响

岩石常见较大的晶体或者矿物颗粒,混凝土中是骨料,通过团簇模拟大颗粒的力学行为、团簇可以破裂。根据设计的相同数量、相同位置、不同半径的大颗粒数值单轴压缩试验,在虚拟试验条件下,考察了颗粒大小对材料力学响应的影响。通过分析颗粒材料的破裂形态、裂纹扩展过程、应力-应变曲线和破裂能量演化规律发现：大颗粒具有明显的增强特性,有阻止裂纹扩展的作用,破裂多绕大颗粒发展;增强幅度随颗粒半径的增加呈单增趋势,半径较小时,增强效果不明显。     

北京连续降水水汽输送差异的同位素示踪

为了探讨连续降水过程中水汽输送的变化,应用NCEP/NCAR资料、HYSPLIT后向轨迹模拟及降水稳定同位素资料对北京22场连续降水的水汽输送差异进行了研究。结果表明:连续降水的水汽输送可分为西向水汽输送、远洋水汽输送、近海水汽输送、远源大陆水汽输送和局地大陆水汽输送5种类型,并以近海水汽输送和西向水汽输送为主（降水量占比60.8%）。不同水汽输送类型下降水δ18O的差异主要受水汽源区同位素富集程度及水汽输送途中降水过程的影响,降水氘盈余的变化反映出二次蒸发的影响及水汽源区大气相对湿度的差异。14场连续降水的水汽输送类型发生了变化,且降水δ18O值的变化能够较好地指示水汽输送类型的变化。该结果说明降水同位素特征能够为识别水汽输送类型提供有效信息。     

On the Use of Crushed Recycled Glass Instead of Silica Sand in Dual‐Media Filters

Crushed recycled glass was evaluated as an alternative to silica sand in dual‐media filters. Pilot scale inline filtration experiments were carried out using raw waters from three different water sources with turbidities between 6.0 and 14.0 NTU. Two physically identical filter columns were operated in parallel in the experiments. One filter consisted of 62.5 cm silica sand and 41.5 cm anthracite coal, whereas the other filter contained 62.5 cm crushed recycled glass plus 41.5 cm anthracite coal. The total bed depth was 104 cm for both filters. The properties of the media were as follows: Glass effective size = 0.77 mm, uniformity coefficient = 1.41. Sand effective size = 0.79 mm, uniformity coefficient = 1.33. Coal effective size = 1.45 mm, uniformity coefficient = 1.39. Experiments were repeated five times as follows: (i) Without the use of a coagulant, (ii–iii) with 5 and 10 mg/L of alum, and (iv–v) with 5 and 10 mg/L of ferric chloride. The filtration rate used was 11.5 m/h. Turbidity, particle counts, and head losses were measured and compared as functions of time. The following were observed: (i) Effluent turbidities and particle counts of the two filters were very close, i.e., essentially the same effluent quality was obtained when crushed glass was used instead of silica sand. (ii) In the majority of the tests, the filter with crushed glass generated both a smaller clean‐bed head loss and smaller clogging head losses than those of the filter containing sand. It is concluded that crushed glass may be a good alternative to silica sand in dual‐media filtration.     

Salt transport on islands in the Okavango Delta: Numerical investigations

This study uses a numerical model to investigate the groundwater flow and salt transport mechanisms below islands in the Okavango Delta. Continuous evapotranspiration on the islands results in accumulation of solutes and the formation of a saline boundary layer, which may eventually become unstable. A novel Lagrangian method is employed in this study and compared to other numerical methods. The numerical results support the geophysical observations of density fingering on Thata Island. However, the process is slow and it takes some hundreds of years until density fingering is triggered. The results are sensitive to changes of the hydraulic gradient and the evapotranspiration rate. Small changes may lead to different plume developments. Results further demonstrate that density effects may be entirely overridden by lateral flow on islands embedded in a sufficiently high regional hydraulic gradient.     

不同气象条件下烟花爆竹燃放对空气质量的影响研究

利用2006年春节期间北京城近郊区主要污染物（SO2、NO2、PM10和PM2．5）浓度和气象资料,分析了烟花爆竹禁放改限放后对空气质量的影响。结果表明：除夕和元宵节大量燃放烟花爆竹导致颗粒物浓度在短时内快速上升,但对S02和N02浓度的影响不明显。春节期间21：00-02：00为颗粒物浓度受燃放烟花爆竹影响最大的时段,其间PM25浓度最高可达该时段内月平均值的6倍,受燃放高峰的影响城近郊区6h平均PM10浓度超过400μg／m^3。城市人类活动集中区和远郊区细粒子浓度对比显示,元宵节城区PM25小时浓度高达718μg／m^3,比远郊区高500μg／m^3以上。气象条件仍是影响春节期间整体空气质量的主要因素,特别是持续高浓度污染主要与小风、逆温、高湿等不利污染物扩散的稳定天气有关。除夕在集中燃放烟花爆竹后,由于存在有利扩散的气象条件,颗粒物浓度很快降低,没有造成持续性的污染,而元宵节前后持续性的空气污染是稳定天气和长时间燃放爆竹以及局地生产生活排放的污染物共同造成的结果。
