2015年尼泊尔Mw7.9地震震前断层闭锁与同震位移特征分析

对尼泊尔震前的GPS水平速度场进行融合处理,获得跨喜马拉雅中东段沿N15°E方向的GPS水平速度场剖面。采用弹性半空间矩形位错模拟反演,结果表明,尼泊尔地震前喜马拉雅主前缘断裂带存在浅部闭锁,深部无震蠕滑,闭锁深度为22.5km,蠕滑段滑动速率为19.0mm/a,断层倾角为10°。GPS观测的同震形变场揭示了尼泊尔地震引起的地壳形变特征,最大同震位移位于尼泊尔境内的KKN4,该站向南移动1.89m;地震还在我国藏南地区造成最大0.54m的永久形变。距离震中400km以外GPS观测到的同震形变微弱,在误差范围之内。依据GPS同震水平位移在N15°E方向的位移剖面,采用矩形位错模型简单模拟了尼泊尔地震的同震破裂。结果显示,GPS同震位移剖面可以用喜马拉雅冲断带前缘主断裂(MFT)以北的基底低角度逆断层引起的弹性位错模拟,浅部的主前缘逆冲断裂、主边界逆冲断裂和主中央逆冲断裂等分支并没有破裂。     

Influence of yaw-roll coupling on the behavior of a FPSO: An experimental and numerical investigation

An inconvenience in the experimental set-up of a FPSO in regular waves highlighted occurrence of parametric-roll events promoted by yaw-roll coupling and motivated a combined physical and numerical analysis on the relevance of this phenomenon on the roll resonance, as well as on the water shipping. The model tests examine the ship in head- and bow-sea waves in the zone of the first parametric resonance. Numerically, it is adopted a 3D Domain-Decomposition (DD) strategy combining a weakly-nonlinear potential-flow solver based on the weak-scatterer theory with a shallow-water approximation for the shipped liquid and with a bottom-slamming solution. Detailed comparisons against these and other seakeeping experiments validated the numerical method in its different aspects with global success.At first, a 2-dof equivalent linearized yaw-roll coupled system is examined and the measurements are used to estimate hydrodynamic coefficients required to complete the mathematical model of the problem. Then the DD method is applied to verify the instability occurrence and compared against the experiments. From the analysis, the parametric-roll instability does not occur if all nonlinearities in the roll restoring load are not accounted for. However the amplitude of the resonant roll is affected by the coupling with the other degrees of freedom. Especially the coupling with yaw tends to increase the steady-state roll amplitude. It also affects the water shipping with the trend in reducing its severity for the vessel, this is opposite to the influence of the parametric roll in head-sea waves on the water on deck, as documented in Greco et al. (2014) [4].

Environmental ethics and regional sustainable development

The scientific environmental ethics plays a key role in the recognition of the human- environment interactions. Modern environmental ethics is the philosophical re-thinking of modern human race environmental behavior. The development of environmental ethics theory, as well as its application in reality, determines the viewpoints of environmental ethics. Sustainable development implies harmony on human-environment interactions and inter- generation responsibility, with emphasis on a harmonious relationship among population, resources, environment and development, so as to lay a sustainable and healthy foundation of resources and environment for future generations. The harmonious society construction in China that is raised by the Chinese central government should be covered by environmental ethics. The connotation of open environmental ethics includes a respect for nature, care for the individual human race, and respect for the development of future generations, which means giving consideration to natural values, individual and human race benefits and welfare across generations. The role of environmental ethics in regional development consists of cognition, criticism, education, inspiration, adjusting, legislation and promoting environmental regulations. The major problems in regional development are extensive resource exploration, fast population growth, irrational industrial structure, unfair welfare distribution and the twofold effects of science and technology development. The formulation of environmental ethics that aims at regional sustainable development, can not only harmonize the relationship of population, resource, environment and economic development, but also guide behavior selection, push social and political system transformation, strengthen the legal system, and raise environmental awareness of the public.     

东北地区“人口-经济-空间”城市化协调性研究

城市化是一个"人口-经济-空间"三维一体的过程,其内在协调与否是城市可持续发展的关键所在。为此,首先通过构建人口、经济、空间城市化内在表征指标,运用均方差赋权法,以东北地区(指的是东北三省)34个地级市为研究对象,来综合测度其人口、经济、空间城市化水平;其次运用协调度评价模型对其协调程度进行评价;并在此基础上进行分类。研究结果表明:①东北地区经济城市化主导人口、空间城市化,但整体水平不高,平均水平基本处于加速发展阶段(0.25~0.35);②人口、经济、空间城市化水平的空间分异明显,其中人口城市化整体呈现出由北往南递减的趋势,而经济城市化则成由南往北递减的趋势,两者"内在互补(互异)"趋势非常明显;③三者城市化协调度低,且区域差异明显,由南往北递减趋势非常明显;④依据彼此间协调度主宰程度,将其划分为综合协调导向型,人口-经济、人口-空间、经济-空间协调导向型4种类型。     

GAUGE: the GrAnd Unification and Gravity Explorer

The GAUGE (GrAnd Unification and Gravity Explorer) mission proposes to use a drag-free spacecraft platform onto which a number of experiments are attached. They are designed to address a number of key issues at the interface between gravity and unification with the other forces of nature. The equivalence principle is to be probed with both a high-precision test using classical macroscopic test bodies, and, to lower precision, using microscopic test bodies via cold-atom interferometry. These two equivalence principle tests will explore string-dilaton theories and the effect of space–time fluctuations respectively. The macroscopic test bodies will also be used for intermediate-range inverse-square law and an axion-like spin-coupling search. The microscopic test bodies offer the prospect of extending the range of tests to also include short-range inverse-square law and spin-coupling measurements as well as looking for evidence of quantum decoherence due to space–time fluctuations at the Planck scale.     

Wheat as food, wheat as industrial substance; comparative geographies of transformation and mobility

Wheat is the world’s second largest crop, supplies 19% of human calories, and is the largest volume crop traded internationally. Its uniquely malleable physical properties make it a valued industrial substance, albeit often an invisible one, as well as a food. This combination of transformation, invisibility and mobility demands new ways of thinking about wheat geographies. In this paper we document and analyse several ‘moments’ in the life of Australian wheat; at the supermarket, in the lives of coeliac sufferers, in laboratories, industrial factories and on the farm. We illustrate diverse patterns of interaction with wheat. The major plane of differentiation is between wheat as food and wheat as industrial substance. The explicit connection of food to the human body tends to fix the identity of wheat, whether as healthy staple of the nation, or harmful poison to coeliacs who must negotiate its presence using the regulatory regime of food labelling. This is no small task given the ubiquity of wheat; our survey of 10,235 supermarket items found it in 29.5% of labelled food items. In contrast, when wheat is physically and chemically disassembled to become an industrial substance, its presence and identity become mutable, hidden and often invisible.

日长的十年尺度波动分析和核幔电磁耦合

分析了１８００ ～１９９５ 年的日长年均值（ △ Ｌ Ｏ Ｄ Ｙ） 观测资料表明：日长（ △ Ｌ Ｏ Ｄ Ｙ） 的十年波动明显大于观测噪声水平。用小波变换方法分析了△ Ｌ Ｏ Ｄ Ｙ 观测资料, 表明△ Ｌ Ｏ Ｄ Ｙ 的十年尺度的周期为６０ａ （ 年） 和３０ａ（ 年） , 所对应的振幅为１ ｍｓ 和０ ．５ｍｓ 左右。文中采用国际地球自转服务中心提供的（ Ｅ Ｏ Ｐ Ｃ０４９７ 的日长（ △ Ｌ Ｏ Ｄ Ｃ０４９７） 序列以及由美国国家环境预测中心和美国国家大气研究中心（ Ｎ Ｃ Ｅ Ｐ／ Ｎ Ｃ Ａ Ｒ） 利用全球气象资料归算的大气角动量（ Ａ Ａ Ｍ） 序列进行低通滤波分析, 日长和大气角动量在十年尺度上的波动不一致, 大气角动量只影响到日长短于年际以上时间尺度的变化。文中用理论近似来计算核幔电磁耦合力矩的轴向分量, 它与天文观测△ Ｌ Ｏ Ｄ 资料推出的力矩量级相当, 核幔电磁耦合假说可作为△ Ｌ Ｏ Ｄ 的十年尺度波动的可能机制     

大理岩弹塑性耦合特性试验研究

大量研究表明,岩石经历塑性变形时其弹性参数会发生变化,即存在弹塑性耦合现象。为了研究岩石的弹塑性耦合特性,进行了两种大理岩的循环加、卸载试验。试验结果表明:与常规试验对比,循环加、卸载试验对岩石的变形、强度及破坏形态影响较小;弹性参数随塑性变形的变化显著,考虑弹塑性耦合时,弹性参数取体积模量和剪切模量更为合适;基于Mohr-Coulomb屈服准则,计算得到了强度参数,即黏聚力和内摩擦角随塑性内变量的演化规律。所得结论将为岩石弹塑性耦合本构模型的建立提供基本的试验支持。
