Early Miocene rotational process in the eastern part of south-west Japan inferred from paleomagnetic studies

Abstract This paper provides untilted paleomagnetic data obtained from the early Miocene strata around the Kanazawa‐Iozen area, in the eastern part of south‐west Japan. A thick pile of volcaniclastics and marine transgressive sediments underlie the area; they were deposited in the early stage of the Japan Sea opening event. Progressive thermal demagnetization tests isolated stable primary magnetic vectors from eight sites in the upper part of the Iozen Formation. Overall, the tilt‐corrected mean direction of this unit is D = 36.4°, I = 51.6° and α₉₅ = 12.1. Together with a published paleomagnetic and chronological database, the present results suggest that clockwise rotation of south‐west Japan, linked to the back‐arc opening, commenced in the early Miocene and accelerated at the same time as rapid subsidence along the Japan Sea coast. Post‐opening, differential rotation within the eastern part of south‐west Japan is assumed, based on selected paleomagnetic data from the latest Early Miocene.     

高耸塔架结构节点损伤基于神经网络的两步诊断法

本文针对高耸钢塔架结构的损伤特点，建立了具有节点损伤的有限元模型，提出了一种分层神经网络两步诊断法：第一步，由基于区域残余力理论的第一层神经网络进行结构损伤区域的初诊；第二步，由基于应变模态理论的第二层神经网络进行损伤区域内的具体损伤节点位置和程度的诊断。对一平面塔架结构的数值仿真分析表明：本文提出的损伤诊断方法的结果是令人满意的。     

全球地震纬度分布特征和北纬35°峰值异常浅析

本文取1900年─1980年全球Ms≥6．0地震7936次分析后发现，地震发生在南北回归线（23°5N—23°5S）之间占49．69％，发生在南北极因（63°5N—63°5S）之间占99．17％，发生在南北极圈外只占0．83％，即很少发生地震；其中8级地震98次，在35°N线为高峰。又分析了公元648年─1979年全球M≥8级地震257次主要亦集中在35°N线附近。尤其是历史上破坏性极大的地震在35°N线附近者多。这些现象可能和地球自转有一定关系。

A new nutation series for a more realistic model earth

The frequency-dependent correction coefficients with respect to the forced nutations of a rigid earth are computed using the complex scalar gravitational-motion equations for an earth model with an anelastic mantle. Oceanic loads and tidal currents enter the model via outer boundary conditions. The ellipticity of the core-mantle boundary and the dynamical ellipticity are adjusted to observations. This requires the behaviour inside the model earth to be regarded as non-hydrostatic. Some relevant equations for the evaluation of boundary conditions and some terms in the equations of motion are expanded to second order in ellipticity. The computation of the equipotential-surface ellipticity profile is carried to second order as well. These second-order expansions lead to increased accuracy of the results in general. Moreover, one achieves a better reliability for the integration at frequencies close to a resonance. This allows the integration of the equations of motion at any relevant nutation period without the need for a normal-mode expansion. A complete new nutation series for a realistic model earth is presented.     

地幔对流中的科里奥利力

马宗晋认为，岩石圈的西向漂移和地幔东向运动的定向性显示了地球自转变化的导向作用［１］。本文证明，地球自转中的一种惯性力──科里奥利力是产生地球各圈层差异旋转的原因。     

热幔柱的启动动力

科氏力是地球各圈层差异旋转的原因。在重力分异过程中，随着地球质量不断向地心集中，地球自转动能也不断向地核集中，从而产生圈层分化和差异旋转。     

地球运动的超非线性分析

根据超非线性速度理论，研究了地球的自转状态，得知地球自转的角速度沿半径方向有突变和减小，并由此计算了地壳相对于地核的角速度差值，算得赤道表面每年西移１．７５ｃｍ，符合已报道的观测数据。     

地球内核快速旋转的发现与全球变化的轨道效应

科里奥利效应是产生内核快速旋转的主要原因。科氏力使上升物质向西漂移，下降物质向东漂移；造成地球外层自转减速，地球内层自转加速。所以，自旋体中的垂直运动可以产生大规模的水平运动——圈层差异旋转。地震波测量结果表明，内核旋转速度每年比地壳地幔快１°。对于一个内核差异旋转的地球，太阳辐射不仅形成地磁场的内外磁尾和地壳与内核的反向振动，而且影响核幔角动量交换和电磁耦合，从而控制了地球内能的释放，形成天文周期与地质旋回的一一对应关系。地球轨道和太阳轨道的全球变化响应，为太阳辐射量变化控制地球内能释放提供了证据
