A note on flow structure in the Great Ouse estuary

Field measurements of vertical profiles of velocity and salinity along with turbulence measurements have been used to examine the effect of density gradients on the flow structure in the Great Ouse estuary. During the flood tide shear and longitudinal density gradients cause well mixed conditions in the lower part of the water column. In the upper part of the water column secondary flow effects induced by transverse density gradients, and acceleration effects can contribute to the formation of stable vertical density gradients. On the ebb tide the vertical density gradient appears to be the dominant factor which determines the structure of the flow. The velocity and shear stress data show the evidence of large scale motions which are consistent with the postulated flood and ebb flow structures.

Evolution of the Earth's principal axes and moments of inertia: the canonical form of solution

 Harmonic coefficients of the 2nd degree are separated into the invariant quantitative (the 2nd-degree variance) and the qualitative (the standardized harmonic coefficients) characteristics of the behavior of the potential V ₂(t). On this basis the evolution of the Earth's dynamical figure is described as a solution of the time-dependent eigenvalues–eigenvectors problem in the canonical form. Such a canonical quadratic form is defined only by temporal variations of the harmonic coefficients and always remains finite, even within an infinite time interval. An additional condition for the correction or the determination of temporal variations of the 2nd degree is obtained. Temporal variations of the fully normalized sectorial harmonic coefficients are estimated in addition to ˙Cˉ ₂₀, ˙Cˉ ₂₁, and ˙Sˉ ₂₁ of the EGM96 gravity model. In addition, a non-linear hyperbolic model for Cˉ _2m (t), Sˉ _2m (t) is constructed. The trigonometric form of the hyperbolic model leads to the consideration of the potential V ₂(ψ) instead of V ₂(t) within the closed interval −π/2≤ψ≤+π/2. Thus, it is possible to evaluate the global trend of V ₂(t), the Earth's principal axes and the differences of the moments of inertia within the whole infinite time interval.

Derivation of design soil coefficients (S) and response spectral shapes for Eurocode 8 using the European Strong-Motion Database

A revision is presently under way to upgrade the status of the `Designrecommendations for earthquake resistance of structures', commonlyreferred to as Eurocode 8 (or EC8). In order to improve the definition ofthe design elastic response spectra (ERS) as defined in the Eurocode 8 –Part 1 (Draft May 2001), the values of the soil amplification factors havebeen calculated for sites on sedimentary soils, both stiff (category B) andsoft (category C), with respect to rock sites (category A), such ascontemplated in EC8. The work was performed by a systematic study ofresponse spectra as a function of magnitude and site conditions, usingrecords from the European Strong-Motion Database.The results confirm the occurrence of systematic spectral amplification onsedimentary soils with respect to reference rock in a large set of Europeanstrong motion data. Such amplification has been quantified through ameasure derived from the Housner Spectrum Intensity definition.The values of the soil coefficients recommended in the current version ofEC 8 are shown to be realistic for category C, in the case of a moderateseismicity context. However the values for subsoil class B need to besignificantly increased both for the moderate and high seismicity context.     

用蒙特卡洛模拟法计算正交最小二乘法拟合参数的标准偏差

介绍了一种计算正交最小二乘法拟合参数标准偏差的新方法－蒙特卡洛模拟法，并以电子探针微区分析技术分析环境样品的数据为例，对用于计算经典最小二乘法回归系数标准偏差的公式法和蒙特卡洛模拟法进行了比较。计算结果表明，两者完全相符，蒙特卡洛模拟法的计算结果正确、可靠。考察了模拟次数对计算结果的影响。模拟次数大于500时，计算结果趋于稳定，计算所需时间在1min以内。拟合方差与回归系数标准偏差存在明显的相关关系。线性模型能解释的方差越大，回归系数标准偏差越小。蒙特卡洛模拟法特别适合于非线性模型拟合参数标准偏差的计算。

Temperature-dependence of ultraviolet absorption cross-sections of alternative chlorofluoroethanes

The absorption cross-sections of HCFC-123 (CF₃–CHCl₂), HCFC-141b (CH₃–CFCl₂) and HCFC-142b (CH₃–CF₂Cl) are measured between 170 and 250 nm for temperatures ranging from 295 to 210 K with uncertainties between 2 and 4%. They are compared with other available determinations. Temperature effects are discussed and parametrical formulae are proposed to compute the absorption cross-section for wavelengths and temperatures useful in atmospheric modelling calculations. Photodissociation coefficients are presented and their temperature-dependence is discussed.     

Seismic wave propagation in a viscoelastic porous solid saturated by viscous liquid

A general solution is deduced of the differential equations describing the propagation of elastic waves in a dissipative liquid-filled viscoelastic porous solid. The velocities of three existing waves have been expressed in convenient form using the moduli of the solid phase and by introducing the frequency-dependent equivalent mass densities. The solution is then used to examine some of the phenomena which arise when each of the three-body waves, in turn, are incident on a traction-free plane boundary. Analytic expressions for the reflection coefficients are obtained. Numerical calculations have been made, for a particular model, in case of incidentP _I wave. Effect of viscoelasticity and viscosity on the reflection coefficients has also been exhibited.
