Reliability based risk index for the design of reinforced earth structures

The design methods currently used for earth reinforcement are mostly based on deterministic properties of both the soil and the construction materials used. Nowadays, however, the general trend is designing at a specific degree of reliability. This is even more true where the raw data such as soil properties exhibit significant variation. Deterministic solutions, in this case, may not suffice. Therefore, this paper will attempt to use probabilistic formulations thereby modifying the existing design procedure of reinforced earth retaining walls to account for uncertainties and variabilities. Through a first order Taylor's series expansion about the mean, the mean and variance of the strip reinforcing components, namely width and length, are derived in terms of the variations in the soil properties. Design charts that enable estimation of both mean and variance are developed to avoid extensive partial differentiation involved in the computations. Using appropriate probability distributions along with the mean and variance, the final design outputs are determined for a selected failure probability by introducing what is refered to as 'risk index'. The results indicate that the risk index increases with an increase in the coefficient of variations and a decrease in failure probability. Furthermore, it is shown that in some cases, depending on the variabilities of the soil properties, the classical design technique produced a relatively high failure probability.

辽西中生代火山岩岩浆成因——稀土元素配分及同位素定量模式

本文通过对辽西及邻区中生代盆地火山岩稀土元素配分特征的研究及模拟运算，探讨了其岩浆成因及过程。结果显示南北岩区岩浆成因不同，南岩区岩源为MORB地幔和长期富集型幔熔融混合而成，北岩区为MORB和近期亏损型地幔熔融混合而成。     

茅台酒酿酒高梁的地质环境研究

茅台酒对酿酒高梁有严格要求，适于茅台酒传统酿造工艺的高梁只产于仁怀县的某些地区，主要是受地质环境的控制。仁怀高梁对某些常量和微量元素有着鲜明的选择性，对磷和钼表现出强烈的吸收作用。岩－土剖面元素的迁聚，对磷和铝的供应是确定仁怀高梁品质和产量的关键。侏罗系砂泥岩、二叠系煤系地层的岩－土剖面，元素淋溶微弱，总量丰富，有效态含量高，组合良好，能正常进行岩－土－高梁系统的物质转化与元素迁移，能充分供应高梁生长所需的磷和钼等元素，是茅台酒酿酒高梁的最宜种植区。     

Numerical modeling of 3-D terrain effect on MT field

Using the boundary element method, the numerical modeling problem of three-dimensional terrain effect on magnetotelluric (MT) field is solved. This modeling technique can be run on PC in the case of adopting special net division. The result of modeling test for 2-D terrain by this modeling technique is basically coincident with that by 2-D modeling technique, but there is a great difference between the results of 3-D and 2-D modeling for 3-D terrain.

基于GIS的攀西地区铂族元素成矿地质条件初步分析

攀西地区以良好的铂族元素(PGE)成矿地质背景，而成为我国铂族元素找矿热点地区之一。本文在建立攀西地区铂族元素矿床地质概念模型的基础上，用地理信息系统(GIS)分析了该地区的铂族元素成矿地质条件，包括地质构造、峨眉山玄武岩、基性一超基性岩和铂族元素地球化学异常特征。指出研究区的深大断裂对铂族元素的富集表现出很好的控制作用，峨眉山玄武岩为铂族元素的矿源层之一，岩浆岩为铂族元素的富集提供了成矿物质及成矿能量。

新疆天山表壳元素地球化学特征

根据天山地区(42～44^oN，81～89^oE)1：20万，七探采集的900余个岩石样品的分析结果，基于全样本统计和迭代剔除方法，得到新疆天山地区表壳(出露地壳)的39种元素丰度值；对其中的SiO2、TiO2、Al2O3、TFe2O3、MgO、MnO、CaO、Na2O、K2O、P2O5 10种常量元素，按氧化物之和为100％进行归算。与全球大陆上地壳元素丰度值相比，天山地区表壳元素丰度富集SiO2、MnO和Ag、As、Hj、Sb元素，明显亏损CaO和。Be、Co、Cr、Ni、Mo、Sn，V、W等元素。从元素比值来看，该区表壳的Ba/La、K／La、K／Th、Nb/La、Th/La、Y／La值与全球大陆上地壳相应元素值相当；而K／Na、La／As、La／Sb值明显低于全球大陆上地壳。该区表壳化学成分相当于花岗闪长岩，同时表现出相对富钠和As、Sb元素的特征；这一地球化学特征与区内出露的表壳岩石主要是加里东期和海西期岛弧造山作用的产物有关，相对富钠的成分特征与岛弧岩浆活动中的Adakite质岩浆作用有关。
