21世纪黄河下游防洪减灾对策

黄河是受人类活动强烈影响的河流,随着人类活动对流域环境的影响日趋增强,进入黄河下游的水沙条件发生了重大改变,防洪出现了许多新情况、新问题。黄河水资源进一步开发利用,下游牵断流及小水时间逐年延长,黄河将无有效输沙水量,如果来沙不能控制,现行河道的行洪能力和寿命将始终是中国的忧患。小浪底水库２００１年投入运用后,对黄河下游又将强烈堆积。２１世纪社会经济发展对黄河下游防洪减灾提出了更高要求,根据多年对黄     

Micro-XANES mapping of sulphur and its association with magnesium and phosphorus in the shell of the brachiopod, Terebratulina retusa

Biominerals are natural composite materials comprising organic and inorganic components. Detailed knowledge of the nature and distribution of both components is a crucial requirement in order to advance our understanding of biomineral formation, their material properties and preservation potential as well as the interpretation of environmental data. Detailed chemical data are essential for our understanding of the nature and distribution of such components. Micro-XANES mapping at the sulphur K-edge reveals that, in the brachiopod Terebratulina retusa, the sulphate concentration is higher in the outer (primary) layer than in the calcite fibres of the secondary layer. This is co-incident with a higher magnesium concentration. In contrast, the sheaths surrounding the calcite fibres contain sulphur as thiol, confirming the presence of protein while, the sulphur within the fibres themselves, occurs as sulphate. Micro-XANES analysis of the insoluble organic extract from T. retusa indicates the presence of organic sulphate while Micro-Raman spectroscopy confirms that structurally substituted sulphate (SSS) is also present although semi-quantitative Raman spectroscopy carried out in this spectral region (wavenumbers 900–1200) indicates that the sulphate present is at the threshold of detection by Raman spectroscopy. The distribution of phosphorus in the shell of T. retusa correlates well with that of protein indicating the presence of phosphorylated proteins in the periostracum, the sheaths surrounding the calcite fibres and the interface between the primary and secondary layer.     

基于有限元强度折减法的抗滑桩滑坡推力及抗滑桩内力可靠性分析

现行的抗滑桩滑坡推力以及抗滑桩内力计算方法本质上属于定值方法,由于该方法未考虑边坡岩土体材料参数的变异性等不确定性因素,存在着抗滑桩支护不足或过度支护等问题,因此提出基于有限元强度折减法(SRFEM)的抗滑桩滑坡推力及抗滑桩内力可靠性分析方法。将极限分析法、有限元方法和可靠性分析法三者耦合,用2结点梁单元模拟抗滑桩受力状态,采用拉丁超立方抽样法(LHS)进行可靠度计算,分析求解边坡抗滑桩可靠性问题,并将该过程在数值计算程序中得以实现。对抗滑桩滑坡推力以及抗滑桩内力进行概率统计,得出函数分布关系,并根据已给定的失效概率控制值,反算出滑坡推力以及抗滑桩内力设计值。结合典型算例分析结果表明该法显著区别于一般方法,能较全面地反映出边坡整体现状特征和岩土体材料强度参数的变异性,相对更加合理,且更符合工程实际。     

基于边坡稳定性计算方法比较分析

将强度折减法应用于边坡稳定性分析中,折减土体强度,代入有限元程序进行计算,直至计算不收敛,此时的折减系数即为安全系数。结合工程实例,将强度折减法应用于边坡稳定性的分析,利用瑞典圆弧法,结合岩土工程设计类软件天汉以及有限元分析软件ABAQUS分析边坡稳定性,并对安全系数进行对比,3种计算方法得出的安全系数差别不大,安全系数精度都能满足工程要求。     

Interactions between sediment chemistry and frenulate pogonophores (Annelida) in the north-east Atlantic

The small frenulate pogonophores (Annelida: Pogonophora a.k.a. Siboglinidae) typically inhabit muddy sediments on the continental slope, although a few species occur near hydrothermal vents and cold seeps. We present data on the distribution and habitat characteristics of several species on the European continental shelf and slope from 48°N to 75°N and show how the animals interact with the chemistry of the sediments. The environments inhabited include: shallow (30 m), organic-rich, fjord sediments; slope sediments (1000–2200 m) and methane seeps at 330 m depth. All the species studied obtain nutrition from endosymbiotic bacteria. They take up reduced sulphur species, or in one case, methane, through the posterior parts of their tubes buried in the anoxic sediment. We conclude that most species undertake sulphide ‘mining’, a mechanism previously demonstrated in the bivalves Lucinoma borealis and Thyasira sarsi. These pogonophores participate in the sulphur cycle and effectively lower the sulphide content of the sediments. Our results show that the abundance of frenulate pogonophores increases with increasing sedimentation and with decreasing abundance of other benthos, particularly bioturbating organisms. The maximum sustainable carrying capacity of non-seep sediments for frenulate pogonophores is limited by the rate of sulphate reduction.

Effect of structural characteristics distribution on strength demand and ductility reduction factor of MDOF systems considering soil-structure interaction

It is known that structural stiffness and strength distributions have an important role in the seismic response of buildings.The effect of using different code-specified lateral load patterns on the seismic performance of fixed-base buildings has been investigated by researchers during the past two decades.However,no investigation has yet been carried out for the case of soil-structure systems.In the present study,through intensive parametric analyses of 21,600 linear and nonlinear MDOF systems and considering five different shear strength and stiffness distribution patterns,including three code-specified patterns as well as uniform and concentric patterns subjected to a group of earthquakes recorded on alluvium and soft soils,the effect of structural characteristics distribution on the strength demand and ductility reduction factor of MDOF fixed-base and soil-structure systems are parametrically investigated.The results of this study show that depending on the level of inelasticity,soil flexibility and number of degrees-of-freedoms(DOFs),structural characteristics distribution can significantly affect the strength demand and ductility reduction factor of MDOF systems.It is also found that at high levels of inelasticity,the ductility reduction factor of low-rise MDOF soil-structure systems could be significantly less than that of fixed-base structures and the reduction is less pronounced as the number of stories increases.

油气管道穿越黄土冲沟的管线设计参数研究

长输油气管道经过黄土冲沟边坡时常常采用斜井穿越的方式,采用数值强度折减法与实际地形建模结合的方法,以陕西千阳黄土冲沟边坡为例,通过对黄土力学参数的不断折减,以收敛性准则作为边坡是否产生滑动的破坏判据,根据边坡滑动时的位移等值线图确定了边坡潜在滑动面的形状及位置,确定了管线穿越斜井的初始安全设计参数;基于初步设计参数研究了管线斜井开挖过程中井周土体的位移变化规律,并对斜井开挖后黄土冲沟边坡的稳定性安全系数进行了进一步分析计算。分析结果表明,所给出的管线穿越斜井设计参数的确定方法,能在设计阶段有效避开冲沟边坡潜在滑动区,基于这种设计参数使得管道斜井施工对边坡稳定性影响很小,边坡安全系数由1.162变为1.156,变化不大。根据计算结果,对斜井支护区域也提出了合理的建议。     

Hydrogeochemical models locating sulfate-methane transition zone in marine sediments overlying black shales: A new tool to locate biogenic methane?

Precise hydrogeochemical modeling of early diagenesis is a key in the reconstruction of sedimentary basin models. This determines the mineralogical evolution of the sediment and consequently the porosity of the rock. During early diagenesis also part of the initial organic matter is converted into biogenic gas: CH₄ CO₂, and H₂S. These processes are part of complex reaction chains during sedimentation, and biogeochemical reactions leave different signals that can be observed today. In this work, we reproduce the early diagenetic processes as integrated signals over geological times in sediments of the Demerara Rise by applying chemical thermodynamics using the PHREEQC (version 2) computer code. The investigated sediments are characterized by the presence of black shales in 410–490 mbsf and by a diagenetic barite layer above in 300–350 mbsf at depth of sulfate-methane transition (SMT). We determine the parameters that influence the location of diagenetic barite peaks in sediments overlying black shales by means of a novel modeling approach. Crucial parameters are the amount of bacterial organic matter mineralization, sedimentation rates and bottom water sulfate concentrations. All parameters are intertwining and influence the sulfate-methane cycle. They affect the location of the SMT visualized by diagenetic barite peaks. However, our model approach opens a wide field in exploring early diagenetic reactions, processes and products (such as biogenic methane) over geological times mirrored by diagenetic minerals and pore water concentration profiles that can be detected in present-day sediments.
