The critical scale of fluctuation for active lateral forces in spatially variable undrained clays

This study addresses the phenomenon of the critical scale of fluctuation (SOF) for active lateral force (P_a) in undrained clay when there is a spatial variability in the clay. The phenomenon is significant under shear strength (τ_f) random fields but is insignificant under unit weight (γ) random fields. It is found that the phenomenon of the critical SOF is connected to the nature of the spatial averaging, which is “line averaging” under τ_f random fields and is “area averaging” under γ random fields. The former averaging effect (line) is significantly weaker than the latter (area), so the tendency for the critical slip plane to seek for a favorable location is stronger for the τ_f random field than for the γ random field. Hence, the phenomenon of the critical SOF is more pronounced under τ_f random fields than under γ random fields. The underlying mechanisms for the phenomenon of the critical SOF will be explored in this paper.     

Slip line theory applied to a retaining wall–unsaturated soil interaction problem

An extension of slip line theory to unsaturated soils is presented and applied to the problem of a rigid retaining wall rotating about its toe into unsaturated soils. Suction is introduced using the effective stress concept. Soil–wall interface friction is defined carefully. The influence of suction on limiting passive earth pressures is analysed for two soils under steady state evaporation and infiltration. Suction increases the limiting passive stress at the soil–wall interface, with a dependence on the steady state flow type. The displacement of the retained soil is studied assuming the wall undergoes a rotation increment. The results show a clear difference in the displacement for evaporation and infiltration.     

柴达木盆地北缘东段石炭纪至白垩纪构造演化 模式及地层缺失原因探讨

为了明确柴达木盆地北缘东段石炭纪至白垩纪盆地演化历史,分析石炭系—侏罗系缺失的原因,本文重新确定了石炭系和侏罗系残余地层分布范围,并根据平衡剖面恢复和断裂落差计算,分析了主要断裂的活动特征,提出了柴北缘东段石炭纪至白垩纪的构造演化模式。应用有限单元法模拟了柴北缘东段印支期(三叠纪)、燕山早期(早—中侏罗世)、燕山晚期(晚侏罗世—白垩纪)的应力场,对构造演化模式加以验证。研究结果表明:柴北缘东段自石炭纪至白垩纪经历了石炭纪—二叠纪伸展、三叠纪挤压褶皱、早—中侏罗世断陷、晚侏罗世—白垩纪早期挤压坳陷和白垩纪末挤压反转五个构造演化阶段。三叠纪,柴北缘东段在印支期发育两排近东西走向的背斜凸起,造成石炭系—二叠系在各地区遭受不同程度的剥蚀;侏罗纪—白垩纪早期,欧南地区为继承性隆起区,未完全接受沉积;白垩纪末,受燕山晚期旋回影响,构造反转,逆冲断裂复活,绿梁山、锡铁山、埃姆尼克山、欧隆布鲁克山等主要山体隆升,遭受剥蚀。     

花岗岩型热液铀矿床C、O同位素研究---以甘肃省龙首山芨岭矿区为例

龙首山地区是西北重要的花岗岩型热液铀矿产区之一,区内控矿条件复杂。研究选取甘肃省龙首山芨岭矿区内的矿床和部分矿点的热液碳酸盐样品并测定其C、O同位素组成：δ13C VPDB的值在-1.50‰～-6.33‰之间,δ18OSMOW值为-2.577～5.051‰之间。进一步研究结果表明,成矿流体中矿化剂ΣCO2主要来源于与区域深大断裂有关的幔源脱气作用,同时伴有海相碳酸盐来源;成矿同时期伴随的强烈流体脱气(CO2)作用对矿质沉淀至关重要。成矿热液的水源主要为岩浆热液与大气降水混合特征,但以大气降水形成为主。

Geochemistry of mafic rocks and melt inclusions and their implications for the heat source of the 14.0°S hydrothermal field,South Mid-Atlantic Ridge

Fresh rocks sampled from the 14.0°S hydrothermal field of the South Atlantic Ridge can be divided into two categories： olivine-gabbro and basalt. The olivine-gabbro is composed mainly of three types of minerals： olivine, clinopyroxene and plagioclase, while a multitude of melt inclusions occur in the plagioclase phenocrysts of the basalts. We analyzed the whole-rock, major and trace elements contents of the basaks, the mineral chemistry of phenocrysts and melt inclusions in the basalts, and the mineral chemistry of olivine-clinopyroxene-plagioclase in the olivine-gabbro, then simulated magma evolution within the crust using the COMAGMAT program. The whole-rock geochemistry shows that all the basalts exhibit typical N-MORB characteristics. In addition, the mineral chemistry characteristics of the olivine-gabbro （low-Fo olivine, low-Mg# clinopyroxene, high-TiO2 clinopyroxene, low-An plagioclase）, show that strong magma differentiation occurred within the crust. Nevertheless, significant discrepancies between those minerals and phenocrysts in the basalts （high-Fo olivine, high-An plagioclase） reflect the heterogeneity of magma differentiation. High Mg# （-~0.72） melt inclusions isobaric partial crystallization simulations suggest that the magma differentiation occurred at the depth shallower than 13.03 km below the seafloor, and both the vertical differentiation column shows distinct discrepancies from that of a steady-state magma chamber. Instead, a series of independent magma intrusions probably occurred within the crust, and their corresponding crystallized bodies, as the primary high-temperature thermal anomalies within the off-axis crust, probably act as the heat source for the development of the 14.0°S hydrothermal system.
