Topography of the Moho and Conrad discontinuities in the Kyushu district,Southwest Japan

The first P-arrival time data from local earthquakes are inverted for two-dimensional variation of the depths to the Conrad and Moho discontinuities in the Kyushu district, southwest Japan. At the same time, earthquake hypocenters and station corrections are determined from the data. The depths to the discontinuities are estimated by minimizing the travel time residuals of first P-arrival phases for 608 earthquakes observed at 57 seismic stations. In the land area of Kyushu, the Conrad and Moho discontinuities are located within the depth ranges of 16–18 and 34–40 km, respectively. The Conrad discontinuity is not as largely undulated as the Moho discontinuity. The depth to the Moho is deep along the east coast of Kyushu, and the deepest Moho is closely related to markedly low velocity of P wave. We regard the deepest Moho as reflecting the Kyushu–Palau ridge subducting beneath the Kyushu district, together with the Philippine Sea slab. In western Kyushu, the shallow Moho is spreading in the north–northeast–south–southwest direction in the Okinawa trough region. Based on the presence of low-velocity anomaly in three-dimensional velocity structure and seismogenic stress field of shallow crustal earthquakes, the shallow Moho is interpreted as being due to lower crustal erosion associated with a small-scale mantle upwelling in the Okinawa trough region. The velocity discontinuity undulation basically has insignificant effect on hypocenter determination of the local earthquakes, but the Moho topography makes changes in focal depths of some upper mantle earthquakes. The depth variation of the Moho discontinuity has a good correlation with the Bouguer gravity anomaly map; i.e., the shallow Moho of western Kyushu and the deep Moho of eastern Kyushu closely correlate with the positive and negative Bouguer gravity anomalies, respectively.     

新疆一次强飑线过程双多普勒雷达观测的中尺度风场结构分析

利用新疆乌鲁木齐和五家渠的双多普勒雷达同步观测资料与双多普勒雷达风场反演技术,结合多种气象资料(1 min间隔的地面自动站资料、探空资料和NCEP再分析场资料等),综合分析了2005年6月26日新疆乌鲁木齐附近一次强飑线过程。其流场特征是低层存在明显的辐合线,中层辐合,高层辐散。中低层的风场辐合使旧回波右侧(西南侧)一定距离处依次生成新回波并与旧回波合并,对流单体间的辐合线促使其迅速合并,是飑线发展的重要原因。对流单体间的合并是从中层开始的,然后扩展到低层。在低层对流单体合并后,飑线前部有一明显的辐合线,入流区、大的回波强度梯度区和弱回波区非常明显;同时,不同发展阶段的风场配置有明显的不同,上升气流和下沉气流在多单体风暴中同时存在。本次飑线过程中低层是东南风的入流气流,与对流带后部的西北风气流相遇后向上倾斜上升,在中高层形成飑前砧状云,这与国内外中纬度飑线的结构基本一致,但本次飑线过程只有前缘强烈的对流区,没有尾随的层状云降水。自动气象站、多普勒雷达及其反演的风场很好地揭示了该飑线的发生、发展、爆发过程及其回波和风场的空间结构特点。     

斜压大气中台风涡旋自组织的研究

文中利用MM5(V3),实施了8个数值试验,对斜压大气中台风涡旋自组织的问题进行了初步研究.结果表明:(1)在试验1中,没有引进一个半径为80 km的小涡旋,两个初始分离的半径为500 km的轴对称涡旋,一边互旋,一边相互排斥,两个涡旋中心之间的距离不断加大,致使双涡最终分离.(2)在试验2中引进了一个半径为80 km的小涡旋,其他条件同试验1,两个初始分离的轴对称涡旋一边互旋,一边相互逼近,经自组织形成了一个由内区和螺旋带组成的类似于台风环流的较大尺度的涡旋.这个结果支持周秀骥在十多年前提出的重要观点,也支持以往在正压框架内的同类研究结果.(3)试验3-8为在前两个试验的基础上取不同初始涡旋参数的敏感性试验,其中,试验3和4为引入小涡旋不同初始位置对台风涡旋自组织的影响,试验5和6为不同初始轴对称双涡间距对台风涡旋自组织的影响,试验7和8反映了不同初始轴对称双涡强度对台风涡旋自组织的作用.它表明对涡旋自组织过程影响最大的涡旋初始参数是涡旋之间的距离,其与正压模式中的结果是类似的.

A simple estimation model for 3D braced excavation wall deflection

A series of two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) finite element analyses using the Hardening Soil (HS) model were carried out to investigate the influences of soil properties, wall stiffness, excavation length, excavation depth, clay thickness at the base of the excavation and wall embedment depth, on the maximum wall deflection induced by braced-excavation. The results show that the 3D maximum wall deflections are generally much smaller than those for 2D. Comparisons were also made with other commonly used semi-empirical charts. Based on the finite element results in this study, a simple wall deflection equation was developed for estimating the maximum wall deflection that takes the 3D effects into consideration through different ratios of excavation length over excavation width.     

Three-dimensional undrained tunnel face stability in clay with a linearly increasing shear strength with depth

The undrained tunnel face stability in clay with a linearly increasing shear strength with depth was investigated by three-dimensional finite element analysis. Three parametric studies were performed to study the effects of the cover depth ratio, overburden stress factor and linear strength gradient ratio on the load factor of the undrained tunnel face stability. The influence of the linear strength gradient ratio on the predicted failure mechanism of the undrained face stability was discussed and examined. An approximate closed-form solution was proposed for three-dimensional undrained tunnel face stability in clays with constant or linearly increasing shear strength profiles with depth.

利用三维可视化卫星遥感影像分析龙蟠-乔后断裂带的几何结构

本文对龙蟠-乔后断裂,采用1/5万数字高程模型和2.5m分辨率的ALOS遥感影像,在ENVI 4.5平台上将二者融合,获取三维可视化卫星遥感影像。从不同的角度、尺度,对三维影像进行构造地貌解译,获得断裂的展布和活动性质。之后选择部分场点考察验证,发现地质地貌体的断错特征与影像上分析的一致,说明三维影像的构造地貌解译在获得断裂几何展布研究中完全适用。本文应用该方法对龙蟠-乔后断裂的研究表明:龙蟠-乔后断裂由北向南依次经过老母增、龙蟠东、鸿文、雄古、北高寨、龙门邑、桃园、东富乐、岩峰场等;依据断裂几何不连续、走向变化、活动性质变化等,由北向南分为龙蟠段、鸿文段、九河段、剑川盆地段、东富乐段。龙蟠段与鸿文段为左旋左阶斜列;鸿文段与九河段为左旋左阶斜列,九河段走向相较鸿文段和南侧的剑川段逆时针旋转约5°,九河盆地的发育与走向变化相关;九河段与剑川盆地段为左旋右阶斜列,剑川盆地的发育不仅与龙蟠-乔后断裂相关,更可能与丽江-小金河断裂的活动也相关;剑川盆地段与东富乐段为左旋右阶斜列,斜列区为拉分性质的沙溪盆地。综上可知,龙蟠-乔后槽谷的形成与断裂最新几何结构和运动性质仅在部分段落上一致,从这个角度看槽谷的形成不排除古河道等其它因素的影响。
