鄂西利川齐岳山高陡背斜带的古应力分析

鄂西利川地区位于湘鄂西构造带与川东构造带的过渡部位,叠加褶皱发育,地处两大构造带分界处的齐岳山高陡背斜带断裂发育。本文以利川地区褶皱和断裂为研究对象,在野外观测和分析的基础上,采用断层滑动数据反演方法,对构造应力场进行了恢复;结合区域构造演化历史,提出该区侏罗纪以来经历了五期构造应力作用,从早到晚分别为:北西-南东向挤压(J3-K1)、近东西向挤压(K1)、近南北向挤压(K1-K2)、北西-南东向引张(K2)和北东-南西向挤压(E3)。该区侏罗纪以来构造变形序列的建立,为深入认识齐岳山高陡背斜带地质灾害形成的地质背景提供了构造地质学证据。

黔西南地区叠加褶皱及其对金矿成矿的意义

黔西南地区燕山-喜山运动期间发生过4期褶皱，它们通过跨褶、移褶、限褶、重褶、弯转、加强等方式叠加，在区内形成穹-盆构造，蛇形褶皱、环状褶皱等复杂的露头干涉型式。叠加褶故对金矿田具有重要的控制作用，多数矿田不仅受叠加褶皱形成的穹隆控制，而又大致按15—20km的等间距排列。本区叠加褶皱的深入研究，对基础地质、成矿规律研究及成矿预测等均具重要意义。     

大陆褶皱造山运动的星地碰撞成因

大陆褶皱造山运动具有突发性、全球同步性,以水平运动为主,主要表现在地壳上部且具有上强下弱等特征,除水平运动一项外,与基于地幔对流的板块构造理论缺少共同之处.想用板块构造理论解释遍布大陆地块内部的褶皱构造,在形位特征与动力机制上都有难以解决的矛盾.基于地球自转速度变化的地质力学理论,对之所做的定性解释颇为合理,但因其只靠地球收缩及潮汐引力等缓变力作为引起地球自转速度变化的动力来源,力量强度太小,不足以引发强大的褶皱造山运动,且有被海水运动取代的难题.揭示了星地碰撞可以为大陆造山运动提供足够强大的突发性动力来源,并简要阐明了其作用机制,可以解决地质力学所遇到的力源不足和被海水运动取代的两大难题,从而为大陆构造研究开辟了一个新境界.      

黔东南隔槽式褶皱成因分析

隔槽式褶皱与隔档式褶皱构成侏罗山式褶皱。传统观点认为,侏罗山式褶皱是滑脱作用所形成,其典型实例是在刚性岩体(基底)之上有一层软弱岩层,在软弱层之上的岩层发生“台布式”滑动而形成隔档隔槽式褶皱。黔东南地区隔槽式褶皱实地调查发现：（1）隔槽式向斜核部的地层比两翼和背斜核部的地层厚;（2）沿隔槽式向斜核部发育多期次活动的纵向断层,断层走向与褶皱枢纽一致;（3）背斜产状平缓变形弱而向斜产状急变变形强,背斜与向斜相间出露构成典型的强弱应变域,复杂变形发生在向斜核部。在湘黔交界处的寒武系内发育了典型的露头尺度隔槽式褶皱。通过隔槽式褶皱的露头尺度解析与宏观变形分析,认为黔东南隔槽式褶皱的形成受多期活动的断层控制,早期沉积阶段的正断层,控制了隔槽式褶皱紧闭向斜的发育位置,构造反转之后,先期断层是应力集中区,正断层转为平移或逆冲断层,在隔槽式褶皱向斜核部发育复杂变形。其次,正断层对隔槽式褶皱发育与逆断层对断弯褶皱发育的控制不同,前者断层发育早,后者断层发育晚。     

渗流分析中排水孔模拟的叠单元法

排水孔是重要的渗控措施,如何准确模拟排水孔的作用是渗流分析中的关键问题之一。目前普遍采用排水子结构法,但由于子结构网格依存于整体网格,在解决复杂工程问题时网格划分难度很大。文中提出一种新的排水孔模拟方法--叠单元法。对于含排水孔的结构,将其划分为不包含排水孔的整体网格以及各排水孔附近区域的局部网格,网格之间相互独立。然后,通过排水孔局部网格的外边界面的虚拟渗流,实现整体网格与排水孔局部网格的耦合。算例分析的结果表明,当排水孔局部网格范围大小取为整体网格单元尺寸的1～3倍,外边界面渗透系数取为材料渗透系数的102～103倍时,所提方法能够准确模拟排水孔的作用。由于叠单元法的网格划分简便易行,有望广泛应用于复杂工程问题的渗流分析     

大陆构造系统动力学及构造应力叠加场探讨

从＂系统动力学＂的角度，对大陆构造动力学系统的结构、组成和特性进行了初步探讨，并且指出大陆区域构造应力场是多种因素联合作用的结果，是多种内、外力的非线性动态叠加场，大陆构造应力叠加场的主要成分包括重应力场、热应力场、离心惯性应力场、板块互相作用应力场、壳幔相变应力场、地幔流剪切应力场和其他诸如地幔底辟、岩浆侵入等造成的应力场等。并以亚洲东北部中新生代断陷盆地系的形成演化为例，试图说明在大陆构造动力学系统内，各种因素总是以其固有的规律演化着，并且相互作用，相互叠加，甚至相互转化，导致构造应力场的多次转化，推动一场又一场不同方式、不同方向和不同性质的构造运动，使中国大陆区域出现纷繁复杂的构造图象，铸成了特有的山川盆湖的分布格局。大陆构造系统动力学与现有的各种大地构造学的有机结合，可能导致＂系统大地构造学＂的发生和发展。     

低级变质沉积岩区压溶作用在褶皱变形中的意义

拉卡兰褶皱带中,发育于Ballarat-Bandigo冲断带中的低级变质砂、泥岩的宏观构造以间离劈理和人字形褶皱为特征,而且劈理在褶皱中呈扇形发育。劈理和褶皱的几何关系分析显示:劈理和褶皱的形成为压溶作用、压扁作用、弯曲作用和被动旋转共同作用的结果,而褶皱砂、泥岩中变形构造则以与压溶作用和再沉淀过程有关的显微构造为其典型特征。Fry法进行的全岩应变测量显示,褶皱砂岩的内部应变相当低(X/Z=1.40—1.83),褶皱应变格局给出变形机制的信息包括:缩短过程中的压扁作用和压溶作用、褶皱过程中由弯滑导致的层平行剪应变、以及褶皱后期发育阶段内弧区强烈的压溶作用。宏观构造、显散构造以及应变特征多方面信息证明:低级变质的沉积岩在褶皱变形过程中,压溶作用为一重要的变形机制。应变分解显示在30％—50％的总地壳水平缩短量下,弯曲导致的缩短最为14％—36％,压扁导致的缩短量为3％—14％,压溶导致的缩短量为8％—26％,而且压溶作用主要发生在褶皱内弧区。     

Inverted intracontinental basin and vertical tectonics: The Saharan Atlas in Tunisia

The present-day architecture of the Saharan Atlas in Tunisia can be defined by two principal models: (1) The first model emphasizes a general SW–NE geological structure in the North forming successive and parallel bands (the Tellian zone, the diapir zone) and the central Atlas, which are cut by the southern Atlas ranges located within a NW–SE corridor. These zones are bordered to the East by the “North–South Axis”. (2) The second model defines the Tunisian Atlas in terms of an E–W strike-slip corridor, which initially controls the sedimentary facies distribution during the Meso-Cenozoïc, and which then generates elongate en echelon folds in the sedimentary cover by dextral shearing.In this study, we aim to show that the Saharan Atlas in Tunisia appears today as a triangular megablock, that we call the Tunisian Block (TB), bounded by three structural trends (N–S, SW–NE and NW–SE) belonging to the African strike-slip fault network: (1) The eastern boundary appears as a complex faulted and folded corridor limiting the folded zone of the central Atlas in the West and the depressed zone of the Sahel in the East: it corresponds to the “North–South Axis” as defined classically in the literature. (2) The southern boundary also corresponds to a faulted belt (Gafsa–Negrine-Tozeur corridor), which cuts off the continuation of the North–South axis southward into the Gabès region; it corresponds to the Southern Saharan Atlas, delimited by the Gafsa fault in the North and the Negrine-Tozeur fault in the South. (3) The northern boundary, trending SW–NE, appears rather in the form of a reverse tectonic bundle, facing SE or S (oblique convergence), whose major feature corresponds to the El Alia-Téboursouk fault. This northern boundary cuts across and delimits the N–S corridor towards the North, in such a way that its extension is limited at both extremities. Finally, the inner part of the TB actually corresponds to a mosaic of second-order blocks, each of which contains an arrangement of widely spaced SW–NE trending anticlines forming the main relief separated by vast plains very often occupied by sebkhas. The paleogeographic and structural evolution of this region during the Mesozoic and Palaeogene shows that the TB, along with its limits as defined here, developed an increasingly distinct identity at a very early stage, being characterized by an extensive and/or transtensive tectonic regime. Finally, the Tunisian Atlas Chain defines a triangular domain that owes its origin and particular character precisely because of the paleogeographic and structural history of this paleoblock. The boundaries of this paleoblock remain mobile, thus tectonically controlling the geometry and morphology of a typical intracontinental basin. The extension directions and the frequent changes of stress regime (or rotations) are related to the existence of two active basins: the strike-slip margin of the western branch of Tethys and the Mesogea oceanic basin, with tectonic activity becoming alternately dominant in one or other of the basins at different times. In this context, the Tunisian basin is characterized by rhythmic sedimentation, composed of a succession of filling sequences linked to the continuing tectonic instability of the sedimentary floor associated with two major crises: one at the end of the Aptian and the other at the end of the Ypresian. The vertical movements related to the extension and/or transtension of the blocks is accentuated by Triassic salt tectonics, giving rise to linear (salt axes) or point (salt domes) structures that lead to the formation of shoal zones during development of the basin, thus enhancing the vertical tectonics. The diapirism developed slowly and gradually from late Triassic through to Langhian times, leading to numerous sedimentary wedges on the flanks of the structures. The uprise of the diapirs exhibits three pauses corresponding to the end-Aptian, end-Ypresian and pre-Burdigalian. The vertical tectonics is characterized by abundant drape folds giving rise to an extensional fault-related folding and strike-slip/dip-slip faults creating frequent unconformities that are nevertheless always localized.Finally, the folded chain results from the structural inversion of this paleoblock from Tortonian times onward. We can only account for the various folds-axis directions in the context of an intracontinental chain where the pre-existing major vertical faults are able to develop on the surface as draped-folds in a transpressive regime by the local reorientation of stresses in crustal-scale faults. In detail, the structures produced by this vertical tectonic activity, which are profoundly controlled by inheritance, display a highly original style at very shallow levels in the crust.
