Discrete Element with Flexible Connector for Dynamic Analysis of 3-D Beam Structures

Combined multi-body dynamics with structural dynamics,a new discrete element with flexibleconnector,which is applicable for 3-D beam structures,is developed in this paper.Both the generalizedelastic coefficient matrix of the flexible connector and the mass matrix of discrete element may be off-diag-onal in a general case.The zero-length rigid element is introduced to simulate the node at which multiple el-ements are jointed together.It may also be effective when the axes of adjacent elements are not in the sameline.The examples for eigenvalue calculation show that the model is successful.It can be extended to thegeometric nonlinear response analysis.     

巷旁切顶对采场下位岩层垮落特征的影响机制

巷旁切顶打断了巷道与采场下位顶板的连续性,促进了采场顶板垮落形成碎石帮,深入研究切顶对采场下位岩层垮落特征的影响机制具有重要意义。对采场支架载荷进行了分析,并对上覆岩层建立了力学建模,明确了上覆岩层运动与典型位置采场支架载荷特征的关系。在此基础上,针对6个巷旁切顶的工作面,给出了典型位置支架的载荷数据,从而分析得到巷旁切顶对采场下位岩层垮落特征的影响机制。同时,建立了数值模型,分析了不同的切顶起始位置和下位顶板强度对下位岩层垮落特征的影响。结果表明,121工法的“垮落线”具有对称的弧形边界,110工法的“垮落线”在切顶侧向工作面充分移动,N00工法介于上述两者之间。此外,不同切顶起始位置和顶板强度条件下,切顶的作用效果存在差异。研究结果有利于进一步深化巷旁切顶对采场下位岩层垮落特征影响的认识。     

体育馆屋盖结构的非接触式实时沉降监测

本文针对某体育馆屋盖结构沉降监测的任务要求,采用了基于经纬仪或全站仪角度观测的非接触式沉降监测方法;论述了其测量原理及详细的作业过程,在论证测距误差及水平位移对沉降量计算影响可忽略不计的基础上,分析了该方法可达到的精度水平。为满足实时性监测的要求,采用Visual Basic语言编制了联机测量程序,实时记录和存储观测数据及计算成果。工程实践表明,该方法能够在水准测量无法实施的情况下,有效解决不易到达变形体的沉降监测难题。     

Teaching Historical Geographies of American Film Production

Abstract

The geographies of Hollywood are multiple, contradictory, ephemeral and tangible. Our preconceived conceptions of space and place play a dynamic role in what elements we tend to focus on when discussing the cultural industry of American cinema. This essay uses Hollywood as a metaphor for the American film production industry and a historical geography of production as a framework to explore major spatial and structural changes within this industry from its inception to the present. It highlights teaching methods and materials from the course A Geography of Film at Southern Connecticut State University. Mode of production relates to the economic process where capital, labor, knowledge and imagination are blended to produce a culturalized product for consumption. The American film industry is a fine example of the commodification of culture.

褥垫层地复合地基受力模式的影响及工程实例分析

采用复合地基方案时，在基础和复合地基之间可设一层粒状材料垫层，以起“调整均化”作用。本文通过分析褥垫层对复合地基受力模式的影响，探讨了褥垫层在保证桩土共同承担荷载，改善复合地基承载性状等方面所具有的重要意义。最后通过对某具体工程实例的分析，得出一些相关结论。     

对西康铁路软岩和极软岩隧道支护的认识

西康铁路沿线软质岩带在秦岭以南分布较广。在软质岩带集中出露的地段，地质情况复杂。隧道围岩稳定性差，其工程地质特性随着岩层矿物成分、产状、风化程度、地下水赋存特征的不同有很大差异。本文介绍了西康铁路南段软岩和极软岩带的设计指导思想，并结合西康线具体情况，具体分析了软岩极软岩对隧道施工的影响，对该类型地层铁路隧道的设计、施工，提出几点建议，作为今后工作的借鉴。     

Gray box identification of flexible structures: application to robust active vibration suppression control

The paper deals with gray box identification of flexible structures and active vibration suppression from a robust control perspective. First, the linearized mathematical model of an N‐storey flexible structure is presented. Next, the generalized mathematical model is particularized for the investigated three‐storey flexible structure. The considered flexible structure is identified based on black box and gray box identification methods and the model's parametric uncertainties are deduced. Furthermore, control constraints are presented for the design problem, in case of velocity as well as acceleration feedback, from a robust control perspective. Finally, the effectiveness of the control system is tested through experiments, when the input disturbance is assumed to be a sinusoidal one as well as a historical earthquake record (1940 El Centro record).

论柔性生产与产业集聚

20世纪中后期，随着新技术革命加速推进和市场竞争日益激烈，很多产品的生命周期不断缩短，消费需求日趋多样化和复杂化。在这样的环境下，工业生产方式也发生了相应的变化，即从福特制向后福建特制转变。同时，在传统老工业区外围出现了以柔性生产为特征的大量企业集聚体，它们彼此之间通过分工与协作而结成稠密的区域网络组织，以共同面对快速变化的外部市场环境和技术条件。这种新型的集聚现象与柔性生产之间是否存在着内在的联系呢？理论界对此一直有争议。作者认为，柔性生产具有促进产业集聚的动力机制，并运用交易成本和知识创新的有关理论，以及日本丰田公司的及时生产系统为例进行论证，最后提出进一步研究的方向。
