A simple criterion for the machinability of hard rocks

Conclusions The application of mechanical methods for rapid excavation requires more detailed and precise knowledge of the site, but there is no single parameter which can provide a comprehensive measure for the selection and performance of a tunnel boring machine.The machinability index proposed in this paper is based on four different parameters which influence the performance of a tunnelling machine and are widely accepted by the engineers and geologists. In order to develop a comprehensive measure regarding the borability of rocks,in situ conditions must be evaluated. The machinability index coupled with thein situ information would facilitate judicious decisions regarding the application and selection of tunnel boring machines.The geological conditions and rock characteristics cannot be controlled but their knowledge can prevent costly mistakes in equipment selection and assist in identifying alternative excavation systems, therefore a thorough site investigation can substantially reduce the economic and technical risks associated with tunnelling and mine development.

冻土切削力学特性的试验和理论分析

利用笔者所研制的冻土切削试验台，在室内对不同冻土在不同温度、含水量、切削速度、切削深度和切刀前角下进行了一系列切削试验。结果表明，切削时，冻土主要呈脆性断裂破坏，其切削过程被认为是刀刃切入和撕裂冻土的结果，切削阻力随冻土温度降低而非线性增加，随切削速度提高而略有增加，随切削深度增加而近似线性增加，最佳切刀前角随切削深度增大有增大趋势。但平均切削阻力与最大切削阻力之比值对不同试验条件基本在０．４－０．６５间变化。同时，根据切削过程机理，从理论上建立了最大切削力模型，此模型考虑了切入和撕裂冻土阻力。     

Asymptotic edge-and-vertex diffraction theory

Uniformly asymptotic formulae for edge-and-vertex diffraction in the time-domain, involving elementary functions of time, traveltimes and GTD amplitudes, are derived. Explicit expressions for diffraction at a pyramid and a triangle are constructed. They can be applied to the numerical calculation of a field reflected and diffracted at 3-D objects with sharp edges and to reflection from triangulated surfaces. the computational cost is very low.     

地台活化与层控铅锌矿床

本文主要介绍大多数层控铅锌矿床是产在半封闭沉积盆地碳酸盐岩中,属同生沉积成因。在地台活化时期,由于扬子地台西南缘从稳定地块转向活化。在构造-岩浆作用时期,火山喷气导致了金属聚积。因此,所有的矿床均表现出受超壳大断裂控制,这些矿床可认为是同生沉积-火山喷气成因。

西秦岭北缘断裂带新活动特征

在本文中，作者在近几年进行的大比例尺活断层地质填图工作的基础上，介绍了西秦岭北缘断裂带晚第四纪以来活动的基本待征，研究了该断裂带的空间展布情况、几何学和运动学特征、断层活动速率、古地震与地震重复周期等。结果表明，该断裂带自第四纪以来由压性逐渐演变为左旋扭动，其水平滑动速率为２．１－２．８ｍｍ／年，垂直滑动速率为０．４－０．７ｍｍ／年，地震复发周期约为５０００年。     

Waterjet-assisted rock cutting systems — the present state of the art

Summary A review of the benefits of assisting mechanical tools, notably drag bits, with moderate pressure waterjets suitably directed with respect to the bit is given. These benefits include reduced bit forces, especially the bit normal force, reduced bit wear, reduced dust make, and reduced incidence of frictional sparking. The research work that has been conducted to date to investigate this phenomenon has been empirical in nature. Experiments are described that extend the data bank of this empirical knowledge. In addition, experiments aimed at gaining a better understanding of the fundamentals of the rock fragmentation process with this hybrid cutting method are outlined.Results from the first of these experimental series are used to make recommendations as to the position of the jet with respect to the bit, the stand-off distance between the nozzle exit and the bit/rock interface, and the jet energy. In addition, preliminary findings are reported regarding the increase necessary in the jet energy when the bit velocity is increased. Results from the second test series are discussed in the context of rock fracture behaviour induced by mechanical bits acting alone. The likely influence of waterjets on these fracture processes is analysed. It is concluded that, in terms of the bit force reductions, a dominant influence of the jets when used in conjunction with sharp drag bits, is continuous removal of the rock debris that forms ahead of the advancing bit. The observed reductions in bit wear and incidence of frictional sparking are attributed to reduced heat loading of the bit during the cutting operation. Reductions in the dust make are attributed to effective wetting of the fine rock particles before they become entrained in the airstream.
