Wave measurement based on light refraction

Some authors have developed a few methods of measuring wave slopes based on light refraction, including the measurement method via the distribution of light intensity or color under water. A new method based on light refraction is specified for the measurement of wave surface elevation in wave flume via imaging technology. A plane painted with black and white stripes is put on the flume floor as an indication plane, which can be arranged easily and cheaply. Compared with the previous methods, the present method is less sensitive to the noise and nonlinear effects of optical process, which can be taken as a digital method. The CCD camera is fixed above the flume with its optical axis arranged vertically to grab the images of stripes modulated by the wave surface. The modulated value can be calculated from the Hilbert transform, and then the wave surface elevation can be obtained. The algorithm and experimental procedure are specified in detail, and some experimental results are provided to show the validity of the present method.     

电磁波信号在对流层中路径弯曲改正的级数展开式

大气折射延迟是空间大地测量中的一个主要误差源。本文严格地给出了中性大气路径弯曲改正的原理性公式。通过对各种因素量级的分析,在亚毫米量级的精度上给出了一个以视天顶距正切和正割乘积为参数的级数展开模型。新模型在球对称大气模型下,级数展开模型的精度达到了毫米量级,理论上可以展开到任意阶次,且可允许观测高度角小到5°。     

一种新的多通道GPS共视资料的处理算法

提出了一种按仰角加权的多通道GPS共视资料处理算法,充分利用了所有观测数据,同时抑制了多径等因素影响,从而可提高共视比对精度。对日本邮政省通讯研究所(CRL)和国家授时中心(NTSC)2002年5月~2003年3月的多通道共视比对的处理结果表明,新的处理算法结果更接近真实钟差。     

Integrated geophysical surveys on railroads in permafrost areas

The zones of thawed ground in the permafrost area are most dangerous from engineer-geologist effect point of view. Detection of such zones, as making forecast of their movement is the main task of engi...     

MAVIS–an upper crustal seismic refraction experiment in the Midland Valley of Scotland

The results of the Midland Valley Investigation by Seismology (MAVIS) are described. The experiment consists of three refraction profiles of between 80 and 100 km length across the Upper Palaeozoic basins of the Scottish Midland Valley.
Three refractors are recognized, thus defining four upper crustal layers. The top two layers are interpreted as Carboniferous plus Upper Old Red Sandstone, and Lower Old Red Sandstone plus Lower Palaeozoic. The structure of the refractor, an unconformity, separating the two layers mirrors surface structure. Deeper refractors, associated with Midland Valley crystalline basement, show no correlation with surface structure. The MAVIS survey allows the refinement of earlier gross interpretation of upper crustal structure in the Midland Valley, but confirms the existence of anomalously shallow (6.4 km s^–1) basement, and shows, in conjunction with results of previous work, that a large area of the central and southern Midland Valley is characterized by one velocity signature, probably indicative of a single terrane.     

帕米尔东北侧地壳结构研究

1998年在帕米尔东北侧伽师及其周边地区完成了两条深地震宽角反射/折射剖面. 结果表明,西昆仑、塔里木和天山在地壳速度结构、构造特征上显示出较大差异. 塔里木块体具有稳定地块的地壳结构特征,地壳平均速度较高(6.5km/s). 向南进入西昆仑,地壳明显增厚,厚度可达0km左右,且地壳平均速度偏低(6.0-6.2km/s),偏低的地壳平均速度主要来源于相对低速度的下地壳结构,反映了西昆仑褶皱系下地壳介质的特征. 向北进入天山后,地壳同样明显增厚,但增厚的程度低于西昆仑下,约为50-55km. 天山地壳同样具有明显低的平均速度(6.2km/s),显示了天山地壳相对"软"的特征,但天山地壳偏低的平均速度来源于广泛分布于中地壳的低速度层和速度偏低的下地壳. 在印度块体向北强烈推挤的作用下,该区地壳遭受强烈的不均匀变形,塔里木块体向南插入西昆仑下,向北插入天山下,形成了该区强烈地震频繁发生的深部构造环境.
