黄河下游水沙关系模型参数随河段距离变化规律

对于多沙河流或河段,水沙关系模型多表示为考虑来水含沙量的幂律函数形式：Q_s=KS_u^aQ^b,本质反映了河道的不平衡输沙规律,模型参数变化主要受到河道边界条件的影响。河段距离作为反映沿程空间尺度的一个重要指标,对模型系数K与指数a、b具有重要的影响。以黄河下游河道为研究对象,分析研究了模型系数K与指数a、b随河段距离的变化规律与计算方法,并用于黄河下游河道输沙沿程变化模拟。模型参数变化规律分析表明：指数a随河段距离的增大而减小,两者呈指数负相关关系;系数K随河段距离的增大而减小,且与指数a呈指数正相关关系;指数b随河段距离的增大而增大,且与指数a呈线性负相关关系,两者之和约为2.0。通过建立模型系数K与指数a、b随河段距离变化的计算表达式,构成了考虑来水含沙量的水沙关系模型的参数条件补充方程。对黄河下游河道输沙沿程变化模拟结果表明,黄河下游河道沿程含沙量的计算值与实测值变化趋势基本符合,确定性系数R²值可以达到0.96,Nash-Sutcliffe效率系数NSE值在0.93以上,模拟效果良好。研究结果有助于深入认识考虑来水含沙量的水沙关系模型参数的物理意义与探索模型参数的确定方法。     

内蒙古二连盆地阿北凹陷下白垩统近岸水下扇沉积特征*

阿北凹陷位于内蒙古二连盆地东北部,面积约600 km²,是二连盆地勘探潜力最大的凹陷之一。针对阿北凹陷复杂的地质构造,充分利用岩心、录井、测井以及地震等资料,详细分析了阿北凹陷北部陡坡带下白垩统近岸水下扇沉积特征和分布规律。研究表明,近岸水下扇和扇三角洲在岩相组合、沉积构造、粒度特征、电性特征和地震反射特征方面均有较大区别,综合反映以重力流为主的沉积环境。阿尔善期北部陡坡带发育大规模水下扇,扇体规模自下而上逐渐向北部物源方向减小,到腾格尔期沉积了一大套深湖—半深湖暗色泥岩,近岸水下扇砂砾岩体下切到深湖—半深湖暗色泥岩中,决定了研究区近岸水下扇砂体具有优越的成藏条件。     

Evaluation of factor of safety for vegetated and barren soil slopes with limit equilibrium computations

Limit equilibrium method (LEM) is the most conventional and popular technique in slope stability analysis. Location of the unique failure surface and the determination of corresponding critical factor of safety (critical-FOS) of the soil slope requires a lot of trial and research. With this amount of trial and research results, we evaluate the field of factor of safety (FOS-field), which represents the critical-FOS at a point within the domain of all possible failure surfaces. Such a field can be very important for the precise judgment of the most critical-FOS of the slope and its perturbation. This paper also presents the evaluation of the FOS-field of vegetated slopes, thus providing an analytical way to examine the effect of vegetation on the soil slope stability. We evaluated the stability of vegetated and barren soil slopes under dry and fully saturated conditions. With dry and fully saturated conditions, the behaviour of slopes in most favourable and worst conditions can be simulated. Evaluation of FOS-field for various slope geometries and conditions show that the more unstable the slope becomes, the more difficult it will be to pinpoint the location of the critical failure surface with the unique least FOS. We verified the LEM codes with finite element method (FEM) and spectral element method (SEM) codes considering a sample problem from Smith and Griffiths’ book (Smith and Griffiths 2003).     

Reliability of shallow foundations designed to Eurocode 7

Eurocode 7, the new European standard for geotechnical design, is based on the limit state design method, with partial factors and characteristic parameter values. An objective of the Eurocodes is that the chosen partial factors should achieve reliability levels for a structure close to a prescribed target value. The target ultimate limit state reliability index for a medium risk structure for 50 years is 3.8. This paper examines the reliability of an inclined-eccentrically and vertically loaded square foundation designed using all three Design Approaches in Eurocode 7 with the recommended partial factor values given in EN1997-1. The reliabilities obtained using the three Design Approaches are compared with the target reliability value and the reliabilities of traditional designs using overall factors of safety. The paper provides evidence that Eurocode 7 gives more consistent reliabilities for a greater range of parameter values than the traditional allowable stress method and demonstrates the importance of selecting appropriate characteristic values.

Undrained Bearing Capacity of Suction Caissons for Offshore Wind Turbine Foundations by Numerical Limit Analysis

Determining the ultimate capacity of suction caissons in response to combined vertical, horizontal, and moment loading is essential for their design as foundations for offshore wind turbines. However, the method implemented for stability analysis is quite limited. Numerical limit analysis has an advantage over traditional limit equilibrium methods and nonlinear finite element methods in this case because upper and lower bounds can be achieved to ensure that the exact ultimate capacity of the caisson falls within the appropriate range. This article presents theories related to numerical limit analysis. Simulations are conducted for centrifuge model tests, the findings of which reveal the ability of numerical limit analysis to deal with the inclined pullout capacity of suction caissons. Finally, this article proposes an estimation of the ultimate capacity of a 3.5 MW offshore wind turbine foundation on normally consolidated clay based on the typical environmental parameters of Bothkennar, Scotland. Undrained failure envelopes and safety factors are obtained for suction caissons with different embedment ratios. Failure mechanisms, plastic zones, clay stress distributions, and the influence of the skin friction coefficients of caissons are discussed in detail.

Geochemistry of Miocene trachytes in Bugasi, Lhasa block, Tibetan Plateau: Mixing products between mantle- and crust-derived melts?

It is generally believed that Cenozoic potassic and ultrapotassic volcanic rocks of the Tibetan Plateau were generated by partial melting of an enriched mantle region or lower crustal materials. The Miocene Bugasi volcanic rocks (BVR) in the western part of the Lhasa block are composed mainly of trachyandesites and trachytes, both of which belong to the shoshonite series. The trachytes show somewhat transitional compositions between the mantle-derived trachyandesites of the BVR and the crust-derived potassic rocks of Konglongxiang, most evident in their Sr, Ba, and Ni concentrations, Nb/Ta, Rb/Sr, Th/Nb, Zr/Nb, and Ba/Rb trace element ratios, and Sr and Nd isotopic compositions. These features, coupled with the relatively high Cr and Ni concentrations and Mg#, suggest that the trachytes are the product of mixing between mantle-derived and lower crust-derived melts.
