Residual strength of slip zones of large landslides in the Three Gorges area, China

Slip zones of the large landslides in the Three Gorges area are commonly composed of fine-grained soils with substantial amount of coarse-grained particles, particularly gravel-sized particles. In this study, residual strength of the soils from slip zones of these landslides were examined in relation to their index properties based on a survey of 170 landslides. It was found that laboratory-determined residual friction angle using gravel-free fraction of the disturbed soils from the slip zones was closely related to clay content, liquid limit and plasticity index. On the other hand, in-situ residual friction angle of these soils (i.e. including gravel fraction) showed very weak correlations with clay content and Atterberg limits, but was largely dependent on gravel and fines (clays + silts) contents, increasing with gravels and decreasing with fines, and displayed strong linear correlation with the ratio of gravel to fines contents. These observations indicate that among the index properties, clay content and Atterberg limits can be used to estimate residual strength of the soils finer than 2 mm, but they are not appropriate evaluate the residual strength of the soils containing considerable amount of gravel-sized particles. For the latter, particle size distribution (particularly the ratio of gravel to fines contents) appears to be a useful index. Additionally, it was found that there was no identifiable correlation between relative abundance of individual major clay minerals and residual friction angles of both gravel-free fraction of disturbed and in-situ soils, suggesting that influence of clay minerals on residual strength of these soils can not be simply evaluated based on their abundance.     

大别山南山岭石榴橄榄岩成因的岩石学研究

大别山罗田穹隆东南侧的南山岭石榴橄榄岩岩体面积小(173×133m~2),由贵橄榄石(75%)。透辉石(10%)和镁铝石榴石(15%)组成。本文通过岩石学及地球化学研究,并与大别山的碧溪岭、毛屋、饶拔寨、芝麻坊岩体以及其他地区的基性岩浆杂岩体(如红格岩体、元宝山岩体、柴北缘岩体)、残留地幔块体(五大连池、鹤壁、山旺)等不同成因的超镁铁岩进行对比后认为,该岩体属于火成成因,是镁铁-超镁铁杂岩体的一部分。表现在:橄榄岩呈块状构造,矿物分布均匀未见定向排列,镜下呈现典型的火成结构;FeO~T含量高(21.36%),Mg~#(0.77)低,Mg Ni/Fe Mn(3.06)<7,V(175.5×10~(-6))含量高于地幔块体成因的橄榄岩;REE总量偏低,LREE弱富集,(La/Yb)_N=3.1,低于饶拔寨、芝麻坊等残留地幔块体成因的橄榄岩。南山岭橄榄岩在微量元素蛛网图中,具有Ba、U、Pb、Zr、Eu的正异常和Nb的负异常,石榴橄榄岩全岩以及透辉石单矿物都具有高~(87)Sr/86 Sr(0.7088,0.7086)和低ε_(Nd)(t)(-6.55～-6.01)的特征,尽管南山岭与碧溪岭岩体距离很近而且都属于火成成因,但岩石的结构构造、变质变形的印记、REE配分形式和同位素特征都有区别,表明二者的源区及演化经历不同,相比之下,南山岭岩浆源区地壳组分的作用更为明显。在ε_(Nd)(t)-(~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr)_t图解中南山岭橄榄岩的投点十分靠近大别山北麓120～130Ma侵位的祝家铺辉石岩-辉长岩岩体群的投点分布范围,暗示可能有与罗田穹窿西北侧祝家铺岩体群的岩浆活动相对应。     

Magmatic Network Structure of Volcanic Rocks in the Shengli Oilfield, Eastern China

Types of polymerized molecular network structure and degree of bond breakdown for glass phases of magmatic inclusions and glassy matrix in volcanic rocks from the Shengli oilfield have been defined by the laser Raman spectroscopic investigation. There are significant differences in types of polymerized molecular network structure and degree of bond 'breakdown of the magmatic glass phases between the non-CO2 and COa gas pools: magmatic glass phases of fluid inclusions and matrix in volcanic rocks from the CO2 gas pool contain more sheet network molecules and have a greater degree of bond beakdown than those from the non-CO2 gas pool; and when gas bubbles occur in evolving magma, magma saturated with volatile components has more sheet network molecules. The results suggest the magma-degassing mechanism of the formation of CO2 gas pools in the Shengli oilfield.     

Fish trapping experiments in Northern New Zealand waters

Fish trapping experiments were carried out during 1973–75 along the north‐east coast of the North Island. The most effective trap type was the Z‐trap. Two sizes of Z‐trap were tested. Better results were obtained with the larger ones, which had an overall mean catch rate of 8.4 fish/trap day. The catch rate varied widely between areas, bottom types, and seasons. Best results were obtained in summer in depths greater than 20 m.

Precise and Accurate In Situ Determination of Lead Isotope Ratios in NIST,USGS, MPI‐DING and CGSG Glass Reference Materials using Femtosecond Laser Ablation MC‐ICP‐MS

Lead isotope ratio data were obtained with good precision and accuracy using a 266 nm femtosecond laser ablation (fLA) system connected to a multi‐collector ICP‐MS (MC‐ICP‐MS) and through careful control of analytical procedures. The mass fractionation coefficient induced by 266 nm femtosecond laser ablation was approximately 28% lower than that by 193 nm excimer laser ablation (eLA) with helium carrier gas. The exponential law correction method for Tl normalisation with optimum adjusted Tl ratio was utilised to obtain Pb isotopic data with good precision and accuracy. The Pb isotopic ratios of the glass reference materials NIST SRM 610, 612, 614; USGS BHVO‐2G, BCR‐2G, GSD‐1G, BIR‐1G; and MPI‐DING GOR132‐G, KL2‐G, T1‐G, StHs60/80‐G, ATHO‐G and ML3B‐G were determined using fLA‐MC‐ICP‐MS. The measured Pb isotopic ratios were in good agreement with the reference or published values within 2s measurement uncertainties. We also present the first high‐precision Pb isotopic data for GSE‐1G, GSC‐1G, GSA‐1G and CGSG‐1, CGSG‐2, CGSG‐4 and CGSG‐5 glass reference materials obtained using the femtosecond laser ablation MC‐ICP‐MS analysis technique.     

Quartz resources in the Serra de Santa Helena formation,Brazil: A geochemical and technological study

This study presents an evaluation of Brazilian quartz deposits of Corinto and Olhos D'água, in Minas Gerais State, as potential high purity raw material for the production of silica glass. Both deposits are part of the Serra de Santa Helena formation, which holds other quartz deposits. Several quartz samples from these mines were analyzed to evaluate their chemical purity, by determination of the content of trace elements by ICP-MS after acid digestion. The technological characteristics of the ores after flame-fusion into silica glass were evaluated according to their bubble generation and UV transparency. The results indicate that silica glass with chemistry suitable for crucible applications can be obtained from materials of both mines, and even optical grade silica glass can be manufactured using transparent ore from one of the mines. In addition, this work explores the trace elements composition of each mine, as well as their fluid inclusions, and characterizes the mines as being of hydrothermal origin. Small differences in the physical and chemical characteristics of quartz that could affect the technological behavior of the ores are related to the geological history of the mines and provide interesting insights regarding the exploration of other quartz resources within the same geological formation.     

玻璃纤维增强聚合物抗浮锚杆抗拔性能试验研究与机制分析

抗浮锚杆作为一种竖向锚固技术在我国许多地区广泛应用,锚杆作为抗浮结构的核心其性能受到极大关注。但因钢材易腐蚀,传统金属锚杆的耐久性受到质疑,特别是地铁等地下工程存在杂散电流,限制了金属抗浮锚杆的应用。玻璃纤维增强聚合物(GFRP)抗浮锚杆是一种由树脂基体和玻璃纤维复合而成的新材料,与金属锚杆相比,它具有耐腐蚀、抗拉强度高、自重轻等优良特性。通过植入式裸光纤传感测试技术对GFRP抗浮锚杆的界面应力分布、荷载传递规律及破坏机制进行了研究,论证了GFRP抗浮锚杆使用的适宜性。试验表明,GFRP抗浮锚杆破坏以杆体基体材料剪切破坏为主,?28 mm锚杆极限抗拔力为250 kN,能够满足工程需要;杆体轴力沿深度方向逐渐递减,并且超过一定长度后杆体不再受力。结果显示,中风化岩地区,当锚固段长度为3.95⁶.95 m时,轴力影响深度范围约为3.7 m,说明GFRP抗浮锚杆同样存在临界锚固深度问题。锚杆界面剪应力呈不均匀分布,剪应力峰值随荷载的增加逐渐向下转移,同时0值点也向杆体深部转移。研究成果可为GFRP抗浮锚杆应用于工程实际提供依据。
