水平地震作用下建筑顶层重力荷载能力研究

地震灾害的发生给人们的生命财产安全带来了极大的威胁,为了保障在地震发生时建筑的安全,需要时刻对试件的荷载、初始刚度、延性系数、建筑模型的竖向位移等信息进行检测,一旦重力荷载高于峰值荷载,建筑安全将不能得到保障。为分析水平地震作用下建筑的顶层重力荷载能力,首先建立用于实验的一榀三层三跨式的房屋建筑模型,检测这种模型处于重力荷载作用情况下的侧向刚度,用来了解在建筑顶层结构在处于水平地震作用情况下重力荷载对其检测刚度的影响程度。然后从模型中选取5个试件,对这些试件的材料属性、实验结果、荷载位移进行分析,再通过实验模型的重力荷载位移曲线确定建筑的峰值荷载为700 kN,即当建筑顶层的峰值荷载超过700 kN时,建筑的安全性将难以保证。     

Strength-reduction factors for the design of light nonstructural elements in buildings

Strength-reduction factors that reduce ordinates of floor spectra acceleration due to nonlinearity in the secondary system are investigated. In exchange for permitting some inelastic deformation to occur in the secondary system or its supports, these strength reduction factors allow to design the nonstructural elements or their supports for lateral forces that are smaller than those that would be required to maintain them elastically during earthquakes. This paper presents the results of a statistical analysis on component strength-reduction factors that were computed considering floor motions recorded on instrumented buildings in California during various earthquakes. The effect of yielding in the component or its anchorage/bracing in offering protection against excessive component acceleration demands is investigated. It is shown that strength-reduction factors computed from floor motions are significantly different from those computed from ground motions recorded on rock or on firm soils. In particular, they exhibit much larger reductions for periods tuned or nearly tuned to the dominant modal periods of the building response. This is due to the large differences in frequency content of ground motions and floor motions, with the former typically characterized by wide-band spectra whereas the latter are characterized by narrow-band spectra near periods of dominant modes in the response of the building. Finally, the study provides approximate equations to estimate component strength-reduction factors computed through nonlinear regression analyses.     

Integrating stream gage data and Landsat imagery to complete time-series of surface water extents in Central Valley,California

Accurate monitoring of surface water location and extent is critical for the management of diverse water resource phenomena. The multi-decadal archive of Landsat satellite imagery is punctuated by missing data due to cloud cover during acquisition times, hindering the assembly of a continuous time series of inundation dynamics. This study investigated whether streamflow volume measurements could be integrated with satellite data to fill gaps in monthly surface water chronologies for the Central Valley region of California, USA, from 1984 to 2015. We aggregated measurements of maximum monthly water extent within each of the study area’s 50 8-digit hydrologic unit code (HUC) watersheds from two Landsat-derived datasets: the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC) Monthly Water History and the U.S. Geological Survey Dynamic Surface Water Extent (DSWE). We calculated Spearman rank correlation coefficients between water extent values in each HUC and streamflow discharge data. Linear regression fits of the water extent/streamflow data pairs with the highest correlations served as the basis for interpolation of missing imagery surface water values on a HUC-wise basis. Results show strong (ρ > 0.7) maximum correlations in 11 (22.4%) and 25 (51.0%) HUCs for the DSWE and JRC time series, respectively, when comparisons were restricted to imagery and gages co-located in each HUC. Strong maximum correlations occurred in 39 (79.6%; DSWE) and 42 (85.7%; JRC) HUCs when imagery was paired with discharge data from any study area gage, providing a solid basis for reconstruction of water extent values. We generated continuous time series of 30+ years in 35 HUCs, demonstrating that this technique can provide quantitative estimates of historical surface water extents and elucidate flooding or drought events over the period of data collection. Results of a non-parametric trend analysis of the long-term time series on an annual, seasonal, and monthly basis varied among HUCs, though most trends indicate an increase in surface water over the past 30 years.     

鄂尔多斯盆地前侏罗纪古地貌形成演化及沉积充填特征

采用河流阶地、河谷形态和残余厚度等方法,结合地震和钻井资料,恢复了鄂尔多斯盆地前侏罗纪古地貌形成演化阶段及其特征。结果表明,三叠纪末期盆地主要经历了两次特征不同的构造抬升侵蚀过程,第一次为整体性均衡抬升,抬升侵蚀作用较强;第二次为宽缓V字型不均衡抬升,抬升侵蚀作用相对较弱。前侏罗纪古地貌的形成是晚印支构造运动的侵蚀响应,根据抬升期次晚印支运动可以分为两个亚幕。随着抬升侵蚀的结束,古地貌中河谷首先开始了沉积充填,先后沉积了限制性河谷环境的富县组和半限制河谷环境的延安组延10段河流相地层。     

A geotechnical correction for post-depositional sediment compression: examples from the Forth valley,Scotland

Fine-grained sediments usually suffer post-depositional compression (compaction), which reduces bed thickness and lowers the elevations of sample positions and marker horizons. This reduction has been calculated for two general cases using geotechnical theory, and a correction (decompaction factor) is presented that can be applied to many field situations. Its use is illustrated by two examples from the clay sediments of the Claret Formation of the Forth valley. In the first, the correction is calculated for ¹⁴C samples from the Bothkennar research site near Grangemouth, and the effect on the reconstruction of water depths is discussed. In the second example, corrections are obtained for published sea-level index points from former shorelines in the Forth valley, using a method for a postiori estimation of geotechnical data. General conclusions are drawn between the size of the correction and the sample position relative to the local depocentre. Some applications to palaeotidal modelling are also suggested. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

我国已建成的特高拱坝如溪洛渡、锦屏一级等,在初期蓄水过程中均表现出了谷幅收缩的异常现象,然而均没有对开挖卸荷期间谷幅变形情况进行观测研究。通过对白鹤滩水电站开挖期间谷幅变形监测进行分析,为同类型高拱坝变形监测提供相关参考依据,同时为后续蓄水初期谷幅变形监测分析提供相关基础保障。     

Transpiration rates of Carex Meyeriana in relation to micrometerological factors in a mountain valley wetland

In order to reveal transpiration rates of wetland plants and its relationships to micro- meterological factors in a mountain valley wetland, relative humidity, air temperature, leaf temperature, soil temperature, photo flux density and transpiration rates were measured once two hours in a Carex meyeriana wetland of the Changbai Mountain valley in dry （July） and wet （September） of 2003, respectively. Results showed that the tendency of ＂decreasing after increasing＂ was obvious in wet season. However, a relatively stable trend was observed for the transpiration in dry season.. Generally, the photon flux density of Carex meyeriana was higher in wet season than that in dry season. However, the variabilities of leaf temperature, air temperature and relative humidity were similar in both seasons. Higher transpiration rates of Carex meyeriana leaves were observed in July （varied from 40 to 150 mol.m^-2.s^-1） compared to those （varied from 7 to 14 mol.m^-2.s^-1） in September. Transpiration rates were significantly correlated with air temperature （P〈0.01）, leaf temperature （P〈0.01）, and wind speed （P〈0.05）, but correlationship between relative humidity and photo flux density was not significant （P〈0.05）.     

正义峡径流变化与人类活动影响分析

通过对正义峡径流长观资料的距平差积变化与人类活动影响对比分析,结果表明,正义峡径流量依上游来水和中游灌溉用水多少而定,存在分阶段及近些年衰减增大的多年变化,径流衰减主要是中游引用河水与开采地下水的消耗量增大,地下水补给萎缩与泉水基流减少所致。泉水是正义峡径流的主要成份,占径流总量63％,但年内不同时间径流组成有较大不同,集中用水期可占100％。因此减少中游消耗性用水,以涵养地下水,维持泉水存在对保持下游盆地河水稳定和生态环境的切实保护有特别重要的作用。     

玉龙山西麓更新世冰川作用及其与金沙江河谷发育的关系

在玉龙山东麓更新世冰川作用研究的基础上,对其西麓和金沙江河谷中的古冰川与冰水沉积物的分布和特征进行了调查.结合ESR测年,划分出4次冰期,即0.7～0.6MaB.P.的玉龙冰期,0.53～0.45MaB.P.的干海子冰期,0.31～0.13MaB.P.的丽江冰期和晚更新世中晚期的大理冰期,其中玉龙冰期为规模较大的山麓冰川,丽江和大理冰期为山谷冰川,干海子冰期则为山麓冰川与山谷冰川的过渡类型.来自玉龙山西坡的玉龙冰期冰碛物充填于现今金沙江谷底的事实和大具金沙江下渡口西岸早更新世金沙江砾石层的发现表明,金沙江在早更新世早期即已存在,也说明了在该段金沙江河谷中多处发现的湖相沉积物是冰川沉积堰塞河谷而成石鼓古湖的结果.在该段金沙江河谷中仅发现拔河50m左右以内的4级河流阶地,且往往以这些湖相沉积为基座的现象,则是石鼓古湖被外泄后金沙江现代河谷形成的结果.     

不同道路类型对澜沧江流域景观的生态影响

生境破碎化引发一系列潜在的生态效应,定量表达道路建设造成破碎化特征对于道路生态系统管理具有重要意义。针对澜沧江流域,利用GIS和FragStat软件,通过情景分析,分析了不同级别道路建设对景观的影响。结果表明:澜沧江流域一级路所影响面积最大,三级路最小,而影响的斑块数目则为一级路>二级路>三级路>高速路;生态系统影响面积为林地>草地>旱地>灌丛>水田>建设用地,斑块数目以旱地最高,其次为林地。情景分析表明,随着道路的建设和规划方案的实施,影响域内斑块平均面积减少,斑块数目、平均分维数增加,但总体上,高速路建设对生境破碎化的贡献率较小。土壤侵蚀分布结果表明,侵蚀面积为一级路>二级路>高速路>三级路。
