贺兰山寒武纪早期苏峪口组水下冲积扇的发现及意义

寒武纪早期的苏峪口组是贺兰山地区地质历史重要转换时期的地质单位,长期被认为是近岸海滩沉积.通过3年来对苏峪口组的研究,新识别了苏峪口组沉积环境为一个水下冲积扇,在岩性、岩相、生物群等方面都有新的发现和新的认识.水下冲积扇以冲刷面为底,砾石成分比较复杂,具砾砂混杂、不等粒结构,内部发育递变层理,具重力流的沉积特征.全区辉绿岩脉锆石年龄集中在5.3～5.4 Ma,是开裂盆地早期出现的标志年龄,说明开裂盆地的出现是造成苏峪口组早中期水下冲积扇发育的主要原因.     

海相软土压缩特性的试验研究

对不同取样方式得到的上海、江苏地区海相软黏土的原状样和重塑样进行了单向压缩和等向压缩试验,分别得到各自的压缩曲线、压缩指数 和回弹指数 。通过比较原状样、重塑样的归一化压缩曲线的差异,确认了结构性对软黏土压缩特性的影响。把屈服应力后的压缩曲线外延至10 kPa时的孔隙比定义为参考孔隙比 ,用于简单量化土的组构。根据多次单向压缩试验结果得到的压缩指数 ,建立了原状样和重塑样的压缩指数 与孔隙比 或参考孔隙比 的相关方程,并通过单向、等向压缩指数的比较,认为此方程也适用于等向压缩试验结果。根据原状、重塑样压缩指数 与参考孔隙比 具有基本相同关系的结论,对原状样的结构屈服特性进行了探讨,认为原状样在压力大于结构屈服应力后,胶结已基本破坏,原状样和重塑样压缩特性差异主要是由组构的差异引起的。该研究成果,尤其是压缩指数 与参考孔隙比 的相关方程,可为工程提供重要的参考。     

脉冲压缩方法检测岩石弹性波速度

针对岩石弹性波速度检测信噪比低、回波信号初至时间不易判读,以及较长岩石（或混凝土）超声检测难以穿透问题,提出用脉冲压缩方法检测弹性波速度。该方法与超声脉冲法检测的不同之处是在发射端采用编码信号激励,在接收端进行匹配滤波,得到高信噪比的压缩信号。介绍线性调频信号的宽时宽带特性,分析了脉冲压缩的基本原理和数字实现过程。试验研究了换能器带宽对激发信号的影响。用常规的单脉冲法和脉冲压缩方法检测了多个岩样的弹性波速度,试验结果表明,两种检测结果差异较小。给出了脉冲压缩方法用于岩石弹性波速度检测的具体步骤和计算过程。综合分析,脉冲压缩方法检测岩石弹性波速度是可行的,能够用于岩土工程的质量评价。     

Reconstruction of the Triassic Tectonic Lithofacies Paleogeography in Qiangtang Region, Northern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, China

The Triassic petrostratigraphic system and chronologic stratigraphic sketch have been updated and perfected in the Qiangtang area, Qinghai-Tibet Plateau based on the integrated 1:250000 regional geological survey and the latest research progeny. The first finished 1:3000000 Triassic tectonic lithofacies paleogeographic maps in the Qiangtang area shows that the Triassic tectonic unit in the Qiangtang area can been divided into three parts from north to south: northern Qiangtang block; Longmucuo-Shuanghu suture zone; and southern Qiangtang block.     

Phanerozoic Paleomagnetism Characteristics of the Qomolangma Area in Tibet

This paper conducts systematic test research on the 2920 paleomagnetic directional samples taken from Ordovician-Paleogene sedimentary formation in the north slope of Qomolangma in south of Tibet and obtains the primary remanent magnetization component and counts the new data of paleomagnetism the times. Based on the characteristic remanent magnetization component, it calculates the geomagnetic pole position and latitude value of Himalaya block in Ordovician-Paleogene. According to the new data of paleomagnetism, it draws the palaeomagnetic polar wander curve and palaeolatitude change curve of the north slope of Qomolangma in Ordovician-Paleogene. It also makes a preliminary discussion to the structure evolution history and relative movement of Himalaya bloc. The research results show that many clockwise rotation movements had occurred to the Himalaya block in northern slope of Qomolangmain the process of northward drifting in the phanerozoic eon. In Ordovician-late Cretaceous, there the movement of about 20.0° clockwise rotation occurred in the process of northward drifting. However, 0.4° counterclockwise rotation occurred from the end of late Devonian epoch to the beginning of early carboniferous epoch; 6.0° and 8.0° counterclockwise rotation occurred in carboniferous period and early Triassic epoch respectively, which might be related with the tension crack of continental rift valley from late Devonian period to the beginning of early carboniferous epoch, carboniferous period and early Triassic epoch. From the Eocene epoch to Pliocene epoch, the Himalaya block generated about 28.0° clockwise while drifting northward with a relatively rapid speed. This was the result that since the Eocene epoch, due to the continuous expansion of mid-ocean ridge of the India Ocean, the neo-Tethys with the Yarlung Zangbo River as the main ocean basin closed to form orogenic movement and the strong continent-continent collision orogenic movement of the east and west Himalayas generated clockwise movement in the mid-Himalaya area. According to the calculation of palaeolatitude data, the Himalaya continent-continent collusion orogenic movement since the Eocene epoch caused the crustal structure in Indian Plate-Himalaya folded structural belt-Lhasa block to shorten by at least 1000 km. The systematic research on the paleomagnetism of Qomolangma area in the phanerozoic eon provides a scientific basis to further research the evolution of Gondwanaland, formation and extinction history of paleo-Tethys Ocean and uplift mechanism of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.     

Tectonic Taphrogenesis and Paleoseismic Records from the Yishu Fault Zone in the Initial Stage of the Caledonian Movement

The Yishu fault zone (mid-segment of the Tanlu fault zone) was formed in the Presinian. Periodic tectonic activities and strong seismic events have occurred along the fault zone. During the initial stage of the Caledonian Movement, with the proceeding of the marine transgression from the Yishu paleo-channel to the western Shandong, uneven thick sediments, composed mainly of sand, mud and carbonates of littoral, lagoon, and neritic facies, were deposited in the Yishu fault zone and western Shandong, and constructed the bottom part of the Lower Cambrian consisting of the Liguan and Zhushadong formations. Through field observations and the lab-examinations, various paleoseismic records have been discovered in the Liguan Formation and the Zhushadong Formations of the Yishu fault zone and its vicinity, including some layers with syn-sedimentary deformation structures that were triggered by strong earthquakes (i.e. seismite, seismo-olistostrome, and seismo-turbidite). Paleoseismic records developed in the Zhushadong Formation are mainly seismites with soft-sediment deformation structures, such as liquefied diapir, small liquefied-carbonate lime-mud volcano, liquefied vein, liquefied breccia, convolute deformation (seismic fold), graded fault, soft siliceous vein, and deformation stromatolite, as well as seismites with brittle deformation structures of semiconsolidated sediments. Paleoseismic records preserved in the Liguan Formation are not only seismo-olistostrome with a slump fold, load structure, and ball-and-pillows, but also seismo-turbidite with convolution bedding, graded bedding and wavy-bedding. However, in the western Shandong area, the closer to the Yishu fault zone, the greater the thickness of the Liguan Formation and the Zhushadong Formation, the greater the number and type of layers with paleoseismic records, and the higher the earthquake intensity reflected by associations of seismic records. This evidence indicates that tectonic taphrogenesis accompanied by strong earthquake events occurred in the Yishu fault zone during the initial stage of the Caledonian Movement, which embodied the break-up of the Sino-Korean Plate along the Paleo-Tanlu fault zone at that time.
