海洋天然气水合物勘探地震处理的最小平方反滤波设计及其应用

地震勘探的BSR识别技术是发现海洋天然气水合物的最经济、快捷、方便、有效的方法.在地震处理识别上,对子波的精确处理是水合物地震资料处理中最关键的一个环节,采用最小平方误差准则,即利用实际输出与期望输出的误差平方和为最小的条件,来确定反滤波因子,因此又称为最小平方子波整形.在地震处理程序中引入三种期望输出,即俞氏子波、雷克子波、Buttworth子波,对子波零相位化有较好的效果.根据上面的原理,我们开发了一套最小平方反滤波地震处理软件,对天然气水合物地震勘探资料进行试处理的结果表明,该软件在提高分辨率的同时保持了较高的信噪比.     

Effects of basic fibroblast growth factor and insulin-like growth factor on cultured cartilage cells from skate Raja porasa

Effects of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) on cartilage cells from proboscis of skate,Raja porasa Günther, were investigated in this study. The cartilage cells were cultured in 20% FBS-supplemented MEM medium at 24°C. Twelve hours after culture initiation, the cartilage cells were treated with bFGF and IGF-II at different concentration combinations. It was found that 20 ng/ml of bFGF or 80 ng/ml of IGF-II was enough to have obvious stimulating effect on the growth and division of skate cartilage cells. Test of bFGF and IGF-II together, revealed that 20 ng/ml of bFGF and 80 ng/ml of IGF-II together had the best stimulating effect on the growth and division of skate cartilage cells. The cartilage cells cultured could form a monolayer at day 7. This work was partially supported and funded by the China Education Committee as the “Imbursement Project for Studied Abroad Returnees”.     

Non‐uniqueness of critical state line in compression and extension conditions

Experimental evidence has indicated that the critical state line determined from undrained compression tests is not identical to that determined from undrained extension tests. The purpose of this paper is to investigate a modelling method that accounts for the non‐uniqueness of critical state lines in the compression and the extension testing conditions. Conventional elastic–plastic cap models can predict only a unique critical state line for the compression and the extension tests. A new micromechanical stress–strain model is developed considering explicitly the location of critical state line. The model is then used to simulate undrained triaxial compression and extension tests performed on isotropically consolidated samples with different over‐consolidated ratios. The predictions are compared with experimental results as well as that predicted by models with kinematic hardening of yield surface. All simulations demonstrate that the proposed micromechanical approach is capable of modelling the undrained compression and the undrained extension tests.

The maximum mass of neutron stars

Summary. The maximum mass of neutron stars plays an important role in determining the end point of the evolution of massive stars. As the number of stellar mass black holes in binary x-ray sources grows, and as the mass spectrum of the black holes emerges, the value of the maximum mass of neutron stars has acquired great significance. Although it is now more than sixty years since the first attempt by Oppenheimer and Volkoff, no definitive answer can be given. This review will attempt to outline the main difficulties, both conceptual as well as technical, that stand in the way of a reliable estimate of the maximum mass. We shall also highlight how laboratory experiments, as well as astronomical observations, may help to clarify the true nature of the interior of neutron stars.

On the clustering phase transition in self-gravitating N-body systems

The thermodynamic behaviour of self-gravitating N -body systems has been worked out by borrowing a standard method from molecular dynamics. The link between dynamics and thermodynamics is made in the microcanonical ensemble of statistical mechanics. Through the computation of basic thermodynamic observables and of the equation of state in the     plane, the clustering phase transition appears to be of the second-order type. The dynamical–microcanonical averages are compared with their corresponding canonical ensemble averages, obtained through standard Monte Carlo computations. The latter seem to have completely lost any information about the phase transition. Finally, our results – obtained in a 'microscopic' framework – are compared with some existing theoretical predictions – obtained in a 'macroscopic' (thermodynamic) framework: qualitative and quantitative agreement is found, with an interesting exception.     

Relational places of ethnic Burman women migrants in the borderland town of Tachilek, Myanmar

This paper presents an investigation based on the testimonies of ethnic Bamar or Burman women migrant workers in the ethnically diverse 'borderland' town of Tachilek, Myanmar and interviews with their relatives in the home village in the central Burman heartlands. We examine how the concept of relational places, here involving a village in the central Mandalay Division and a town in the Myanmar–Thailand borderland, is related to differential power relations affecting the women migrants. We focus on the ways that gender identity and social position are limited by the relational places of community elders and the migrant women themselves, and suggest that the relational places of migrants in Myanmar are constructed through the nexus of varied forms of state control in both the central Burman heartlands and the multiethnic borderlands of the country.

钙钛矿结构MgSiO3的分子动力学研究——体系大小对弹性性质与状态方程的影响

本文利用分子动力学模拟方法,研究了300~3000K、0.1~100GPa条件下,MgSiO3钙钛矿大小两个体系的平衡状况和热力学性质,并将大小两个体系的模拟结果与高温高压实验结果进行比较,验证体系大小对哪些物理性质有影响以及影响有多大,为后续工作选择合适的模拟体系进行模拟研究工作提供参考。研究发现,无论在模拟的平衡过程中还是利用模拟数据对状态方程参数的拟合中,大体系的拟合结果都比小体系的计算结果接近高温高压实验结果。大体系的各项模拟结果与高温高压实验结果相比,相差均在1%左右。因此,在计算条件允许的情况下,尽量模拟较大的体系有助于得到更精确的分子动力学研究结果。
