Hydrological impact of roadside ditches in an agricultural watershed in Central New York: implications for non‐point source pollutant transport

Nonpoint source pollution and hydromodification are the leading causes of impairment to our nation's rivers and streams. Roadside ditch networks, ubiquitous in both rural and urban landscapes, intercept and shunt substantial quantities of overland runoff and shallow groundwater to stream systems. By altering natural flowpaths, road ditches contribute not only to hydromodification but also potentially to nonpoint‐source (NPS) pollution by acting as hydrological links between agricultural fields and natural streams. Unfortunately, the impacts of these alterations on watershed hydrology and water quality are not well understood. Through a series of field measurements, including field surveys and discharge monitoring, this study examined the effect of road ditch networks on basin morphometry, field‐ and watershed‐scale hydrology, and pollutant transport in a 38 km² agricultural watershed in south‐central NY. Salient findings include the following: (i) 94% of road ditches discharged to natural streams, effectively doubling the drainage density; (ii) on average, road ditches increased peak and total event flows in their receiving streams by 78% and 57%, respectively, but displayed significant variation across ditches; and (iii) ditches intercepted large quantities of surface and subsurface runoff from agricultural fields and therefore represent efficient conduits for the transport of agricultural NPS pollutants to sensitive receiving waterbodies. Our results provide useful information for hydrologists who wish to further understand how artificial drainage may be affecting watershed hydrology and for managers and engineers tasked with designing appropriate flood and NPS pollution control measures.

非等大球体的任意堆积

利用比重为1.80的分子筛材料球粒进行了等大球和不等大球的任意堆积,相当于水介质中天然颗粒的堆积。得出了不同堆积强度时等大球的堆积密度。不等大球的堆积在相当宽的范围内可视为等大球的堆积,粒径比的阈值为0.70,小球与大球直径之比小于该值时,堆积密度开始增大,通过实验得出了堆积密度随粒径比的变化曲线。实验结果对于了解沉积作用和沉积岩孔隙度等有重要意义。     

沿空留巷巷旁支护体作用机制及工程应用

巷旁支护体稳定是沿空留巷成功的关键。通过建立沿空留巷上覆岩层结构力学模型,分析了巷旁支护体在3个阶段的受力和变形特征,得到了巷旁支护体的作用机制,即巷旁支护体设置后快速增阻,即时支撑巷内顶板,工作面后方周期来压前达到切顶阻力切落采空区一定高度的顶板,上覆岩层剧烈活动稳定前有较大的变形能力及稳定后有较高的后期强度。在上述研究的基础上,以九里山矿24021工作面沿空留巷为工程背景,在巷内支护和巷旁充填材料确定的情况下,采用数值模拟方法分析了不同巷旁支护体宽度时的沿空留巷维护效果,确定了合理的巷旁支护体宽度。该研究成果成功应用于工程实践。     

Geomechanical Models for Clastic Grain Packing

This study proposes a classification of sphere models for grain packing types of coarse grained clastic soft and hard rocks with special emphasis on Permocarboniferous red-beds. The classification covers the range of principal packing types and different cements. Random sphere packing models are derived from ideal symmetric packing models. The study comprises both homogeneous models with equal single grain properties and heterogeneous models with different single grain properties. For each packing type geomechanically relevant parameters like the packing density or coordination numbers are calculated and discussed. The models are correlated with results of image analysing and standard rock engineering experiments that were carried out on a variety of grain mixtures and sedimentary rocks of Permocarboniferous age. The discussion is concerned with the principles of grain packing models and the particular effects of distinct packing types on the petrophysical rock properties and the geomechanical behaviour of the examples presented.     

Porosity of bimodal sediment mixture with particle filling

The porosity of a bimodal sediment mixture is affected by the filling of fine particles in the voids of coarse particles when the particle size range is wide. The classical ideal packing models tend to overestimate the filling, and, thus, underestimate the porosity of the mixture. In this study, an existing random filling model is improved by considering a three-dimensional packing configuration, and a new model is developed by considering how many fine particles are required and how many are available to cover the surface of coarse particles in the sediment mixture. The developed models are validated using measured data and compared with existing models. The new model can reproduce well the variation trend of the mixture porosity as the fraction of fine particles varies.

基于椭球模型的圆砾堆积特性分析

堆积特性是颗粒形状、大小等因素的综合体现,也在一定程度上反映了颗粒集合体的力学特性。以河流冲积型圆砾土中主要占比的10～50 mm圆砾为对象,利用数字图像技术,通过对大样本圆砾颗粒的形态特征分析,选取轴向系数作为圆砾的形状特征参数,并据此提出了圆砾颗粒的椭球模型构建方法,建立了与实际圆砾料在形状和大小上同分布的圆砾椭球模型数据库,进而通过数值堆积试验分析了单粒组圆砾料的堆积特性,并与室内圆筒堆积物理试验进行对比。有以下结论：圆砾的形态特征主要体现在宏观轮廓形状,棱角特性不明显;圆砾堆积数值模拟结果表明,不同大小粒组圆砾堆积孔隙比变化较小;颗粒间摩擦系数对于堆积孔隙比有显著影响,摩擦系数介于0～0.4时,孔隙比变化剧烈,随后逐渐趋于平缓;室内圆筒堆积试验结果验证了椭球模型模拟圆砾堆积的有效性,标定了重力堆积条件下圆砾料颗粒间摩擦系数约为0.3。     

不同层间堆垛密度的HDTMA^＋柱撑蒙脱石对对硝基苯酚的吸附实验研究

本文以阳离子表面活性剂(十六烷基三甲基溴化铵,HDTMAB)为柱撑剂,在不同浓度条件下(0.5～2.5CEC)制备了层间季铵盐离子呈单层平卧、双层平卧和倾斜双层排列的HDTMA 柱撑蒙脱石,并研究了具有不同层间结构的HDTMA 柱撑蒙脱石对对硝基苯酚的吸附能力以及溶液pH值、温度、对硝基苯酚初始浓度等因素对HDTMA 柱撑蒙脱石吸附性能的影响。实验结果表明,HDTMA 柱撑蒙脱石对对硝基苯酚的吸附能力随着介质溶液pH值的升高而升高,这主要受对硝基苯酚在不同pH条件下的离子化程度影响;HDTMA 柱撑蒙脱石对对硝基苯酚的吸附能力随着介质溶液温度的升高而降低,说明吸附反应是一个放热过程。同时,从单层平卧→双层平卧→倾斜双层,HDTMA 柱撑蒙脱石对对硝基苯酚的吸附能力明显提高。钠基蒙脱石和低堆垛密度(单层平卧、双层平卧)的HDTMA 柱撑蒙脱石对对硝基苯酚的吸附等温线呈S型,而高堆垛密度(倾斜双层)的HDTMA 柱撑蒙脱石对对硝基苯酚的吸附等温线呈Linear型,表明前者以表面吸附为主,后者以分配作用为主。
