水平地震激励下储罐液体晃动与提离分析

在考虑地基与储罐相互作用的情况下,采用有限元法对储罐在水平地震荷载作用下的液面晃动及储罐提离反应进行了分析。结果表明:罐内液体的晃动是长周期运动,其周期受地震动影响。无论是小体积罐还是大体积罐,在一定的地震烈度下均可以发生提离,而且储罐发生提离的时刻大多数是在地震动的峰值过后的一段时间内。大体积的储罐的提离明显小于小体积的罐。底板提离区域为月牙形。     

地震工程研究的科学大平台

始于十九世纪末的地震工程研究,在其100多年的历史中积累了大量的理论和实践经验,随之而建设起来的各类地震工程实验设施分布于世界各地。近20年来,信息技术的飞速发展使得分布于世界各地的实验设施通过网络实现协同实验和资源共享。基于以上的信息,为了更好更快地和国际接轨,本文提出了建设一个地震工程研究领域的科学大平台设想。这个大平台包括三个方面的内容:数值模拟,网络协同实验系统和基础信息系统,将形成本领域开放性的综合科学平台。在数值模拟方面,这个科学平台将利用最新的信息技术将本领域的科学研究结果和方法集成起来,形成一个模块式的科学研究平台系统。在网络协同实验方面,将采纳美国NEES的思路,并对其改进和提高之后应用于中国。在基础数据方面,将利用最为先进的数据仓储技术,建设一个可以服务于地震工程科学研究的数据平台。最后,文章给出了建设这个科学平台的规划,以及目前的进展和资金支持等情况。     

Limit states and failure mechanisms of viscous dampers and the implications for large earthquakes

Fluid viscous dampers are used to control story drifts and member forces in structures during earthquake events. These elements provide satisfactory performance at the design‐level or maximum considered earthquake. However, buildings using fluid viscous dampers have not been subjected to very large earthquakes with intensities greater than the design and maximum considered events. Furthermore, an extensive database of viscous damper performance during large seismic events does not exist. To address these issues, a comprehensive analytical and experimental investigation was conducted to determine the performance of damped structures subjected to large earthquakes. A critical component of this research was the development and verification of a detailed viscous damper mathematical model that incorporates limit states. The development of this model and the laboratory and simulation results conclude good correlation with the new model and the damper limit states and provide superior results compared with the typical damper model when considering near collapse evaluation of structures.

Re‐establishment of soil water repellency after destruction by intense burning in a Mediterranean heathland (SW Spain)

Soil water repellency has been conventionally considered as a fire‐induced effect, but an increasing number of studies have suggested that natural background repellency occurs in many soil types, and many of them have suggested that water repellency can be re‐established over time after being destroyed. An experimental fire was conducted to study changes of the soil surface during the first 18 months following intense burning. The main objectives of this paper are as follows: (1) to investigate in situ water repellency changes at three soil depths (0, 2 and 4 cm) immediately after burning; (2) to evaluate the medium‐term evolution of water repellency under field conditions; and (3) to outline the main hydrological consequences of these changes. Also, different water repellency tests (water drop penetration time, ethanol percentage test (EPT) and contact angle (CA) between water drops and the soil surface) were carried out for comparison purposes. Field experiments showed that soil water repellency was partly destroyed after intense burning. Changes were relatively strong at the soil surface, but diminished progressively with depth. Levels of water repellency were practically re‐established 18 months after burning. This suggests that water repellency in the studied area is not necessarily a consequence of fire, but can instead be a natural attribute. Finally, although limited in time, destruction of soil water repellency has important consequences for runoff flow generation and soil loss rates, and, indirectly, for water quality.

旋转流体物理实验中见到的大气环流特征

在合适的实验参数下(热力Rossby数R_(OT)=0.1,Taylor数T_a=2.2 ×10~7),在旋转斜压流中,大尺度地形强迫造成低频振荡以及大气环流中的“阻塞”流型。这是由于地形强迫造成的准静止波与行进波的相互作用及共振引起的。地形把波数单一的流动变成多波数的流动。地形强迫使波数减少。     

丹寨汞金矿床成矿构造地球化学模拟实验

位于贵州省内的丹寨汞金矿床是一典型卡林型金矿床。矿床赋在于上寒武统含有机质的海相泥质碳酸盐岩之中。成矿元素Ａｕ、Ｈｇ、Ａｓ、ｓｂ、Ｂａ密切共生，但汞矿体与金矿体的产出有一定分离。金为微细粒自然金，它与黄铁矿、含砷黄铁矿和粘土矿物有关，在碳质物中，金含量也可提高。有机质（有机碳和沥青）与Ｈｇ－Ａｕ矿化有一定关系。矿床受构造控制明显，矿体主要产出在具压性、压扭性特征的多次构造活动造成的破碎带之中。成矿作用主要是在中低温（１１０－２９０℃）和低压条件下进行的。     

黄钇钽矿形成条件的实验研究

本文实验表明,黄钇钽矿需要在温度≥500℃,溶液pH≈4.0-7.5,压力500—1500bar的范围内形成,与褐钇铌矿相比,其形成条件的范围要窄得多。 不同的稀土元素在形成黄钇钽矿时的成矿温度亦不同。钇族稀土成矿温度相对较低且相互接近,铈族稀土的成矿温度比钇族稀土高得多,并随原子序数减小而迅速增高,以致La、Ce、Pr、Nd在一般的地质条件下难以形成这种结构的矿物,这就是至今在自然界发现的黄钇钽矿均为钇族稀土占优势的原因之一。实验还表明,大量F、P等组分的存在,对黄钇钽矿的形成是不利的。
