A Modified approach for calculating dynamic shear modulus of stiff specimens by resonant column tests

1 Introduction Study of the shear modulus to represent the static and dynamic properties of geotechnical materials is a basic topic in the geotechnical engineering and many researchers (Hardin and Black, 1966; Zhang and Li, 2003; Richard and Richard, 1988; Yuan et al, 2000; Soo et al, 1995) have investigated this phenomenon. The resonant column device provides a powerful tool for testing the shear modulus and damping ratio of the soil-like materials. In 1984, the ?rst resonant column device…     

Global Measurement of Sea Surface Temperature from Space: Some New Perspectives

The measurement of global sea surface temperature (SST) from space is well established with 20 years of useful data already acquired, but the more stringent sampling requirements and the higher degree of accuracy now demanded for applications in both climate monitoring and operational oceanography are increasingly difficult to meet with the standard meteorological polar orbiting sensors that have been the basic sensors used for global SST mapping. The established methods and sensors for measuring SST, both in situ and in space, are reviewed, compared, and their major limitations are identified. Mention is made of phenomena which complicate an apparently simple measurement, including diurnal stratification, the presence of clouds and the contamination of the stratosphere by volcanic aerosols. Recent developments in remote sensing of SST are mentioned, noting the improved microwave sensors now becoming available, the calibrated infrared sensors planned for geostationary platforms, and weighing the benefits of merging these data. The conventional buoy-calibration of SST measurements from space is complicated by the variable thermal structure of the upper few metres of the ocean. The recent improvement of radiometers for ship deployment has led to better understanding of the thermal skin of the ocean which suggests a new approach for the validation of SST algorithms based on radiation transfer models. Finally, a future strategy is outlined for combining measurements from many types of sensor in order to achieve the required accuracy and sampling rate of SST data products, and to identify some of the remaining scientific challenges in this field.

宏观地震方法考虑吸收确定震源深度问题的通解

每个地震都有震源,而震源类型则各式各样,震源幅射能量到地面所产生的宏观场也各不相同,因此在近场,描述宏观场物徵的两个参数：源指标几何扩散率ｎ和吸收系数Ａ／ｋｍ＾２也因地震而异,它们的量值完全由实际的宏观场确定。由此导出完整宏观地震震源公式获得宏观地震方法考虑吸收确定震源深度问题的通解,对比能解和宏观地震震源深度公式各提出三种计算方法,以满足三种不同的需要,经过四个实例两公式的几种算法相互对比,结果
