The surface runoff system is often represented by a single-input single-output model in which the rainfall excess x(t) is defined as the input function and the direct surface runoff y(t) is the output. The problem considered is the optimal identification of the system from given records of several independent storm events each consisting of an input and the corresponding output function. The system is represented by a discrete-time second-order Volterra series. The method is a point by point identification which can be extended to Volterra systems of order higher than a second order. The identified system is required to be conservative as in a previous work of Diskin & Boneh [1973]. In this study the identified system is further required to be copositive. Therefore the notion of copositivity is introduced and an example of a watershed system in Southern Illinois is identified with variable copositivity threshold constraints. 相似文献

The problem of seawater intrusion in a confined coastal aquifer is investigated. The aquifer is overlain by a leaky aquitard and both units extend continuously out under the sea. The problem is formulated in terms of the two governing differential equations, the fluid continuity equation written conveniently in terms of equivalent freshwater head, and the mass continuity equation. Use of linear rectangular finite elements, with direct integration and an iterative solution technique lead to an efficient numerical scheme that is capable of handling long simulation periods. The results, for a 300 m thick aquifer overlain by a 100 m thick aquitard, show that the aquitard has a controlling influence on the salt distribution. A zone of mixing in the aquifer is found to extend for several kilometres in the seaward as well as the landward direction. The time period required by the system to attain a state of dynamic equilibrium after a perturbation is applied may be of the order of centuries. The aquitard is found to cause a downward and seaward displacement of the average salt front. 相似文献

The runoff–storage relationship for a runoff system in a steady-state is analyzed as an indicator of the buffering potential of rainfall-runoff responses. In this relationship, a large storage increase in response to a given runoff increase indicates high buffering potential in the water balance equation. The evaluation method is applied to a sloping permeable domain. A two-dimensional form of the Richards equation is used to calculate runoff and storage. Macropore existence is represented by an enlargement effect of hydraulic conductivity near saturation. The runoff–storage relationship is controlled by the distribution of hydraulic quantities. The distribution of a pressure-head value is approximately classified into the following three zones: the I zone with vertical unsaturated flow, the U zone with unsaturated downslope flow, and the S zone with saturated downslope flow. The runoff-buffering potential is systematically evaluated by dependencies of the runoff–storage relationship on the classification of the pressure-head distribution. The potential is generally high for soil with a high permeability, but rather small in the range of low runoff rates where the S zone is not created. The macropore effect causes the range of high buffering potential to shift to high runoff rates through enlargement of the I zone. As a result, a moderate magnitude of the macropore effect gives the maximum increase in storage in response to a given increase in runoff. 相似文献

The purpose of this research is to use data from experiments to formulate a mathematical model that will predict the non-linear response of a single-storey steel frame to an earthquake input. The process used in this formulation is system identification. The form of the model is a second-order non-linear differential equation with linear viscous damping and Ramberg—Osgood type hysteresis. The damping coefficient and the three parameters in the hysteretic model are to be established. An integral weighted mean squared error function is used to evaluate the [goodness of fit] between the model's response and the structure's response when both are subjected to the same excitation. The function includes errors in displacement and acceleration and is integrated from zero to a time T, which may be the full duration of the recorded response or only a portion of it. The parameters are adjusted using a modified Gauss-Newton method until the error function is minimized. The computer program incorporating these steps in the system identification process is verified with simulated data. Results given in the paper show that in every case the program converges in few iterations to the assigned set of parameters. 相似文献

This paper presents a study of the influence of connection conditions at the head and tip of micropiles on their response to seismic loading. The study is carried using a fully three-dimensional finite element modeling. The soil is assumed to be elastic with Rayleigh damping. The superstructure is modeled by a single degree of freedom system composed of a concentrated mass and a column. The study is carried out for both vertical and inclined micropiles. The results of analyses show that a pinned connection between the micropiles and the cap leads to a reduction in the axial force and bending moment in micropiles, in particular for inclined micropiles. They also show that the embeddement of the tip of micropiles in a stiff substratum layer leads to a dramatic increase in the internal forces in the micropiles. 相似文献

The absolute amplitude of the pressure pulse radiated by a marine seismic source is one of the prime criteria used in evaluating its performance. A technique for this measurement is proposed which is applicable to all sources which radiate a bubble pulse. The technique is described with reference to an air-gun array in which the pulse radiated from a single gun is compared with that radiated by the full array. The advantage of the method is that absolute values of pressure are obtained without any need for a calibrated hydrophone. In theory this may seem a trivial advantage but in practice sensitivity factors for the hydrophone channel cannot always be relied upon. The proposed technique is illustrated by an example. 相似文献

Local and global shape functions in a boundary element formulation for the calculation of traffic induced vibrations 总被引：1，自引：1，他引：1
This paper compares the use of local and global shape functions in a boundary element method that is used in a prediction model for traffic induced vibrations. The boundary element formulation describes the interaction problem between a linear elastic layered half-space and a longitudinally invariant structure representing a road or a railway track. The boundary element formulation in the frequency–wavenumber domain is obtained by means of a weighted residual method. Constant element shape functions, as well as Legendre and Chebyshev shape functions are considered. Their effect on both accuracy and computational effort is investigated. The presence of a singularity in the Chebyshev based shape functions allows to obtain a better approximation for the soil tractions. The theory is applied to road traffic induced vibrations where the response is calculated in a large number of output points. 相似文献

The performance of a well-designed layer of sand, and composites like layer of sand mixed with shredded rubber tire(RSM) as low cost base isolators, is studied in shake table tests in the laboratory. The building foundation is modeled by a 200 mm by 200 mm and 40 mm thick rigid plexi-glass block. The block is placed in the middle of a 1m by 1m tank filled with sand. The selected base isolator is placed between the block and the sand foundation. Accelerometers are placed on top of the footing and foundation sand layer. The displacement of the footing is also measured by LVDT. The whole setup is mounted on a shake table and subjected to sinusoidal motions with varying amplitude and frequency. Sand is found to be effective only at very high amplitude( 0.65 g) of motions. The performance of a composite consisting of sand and 50% shredded rubber tire placed under the footing is found to be most promising as a low-cost effective base isolator. 相似文献

Moving source profiling is a modification of walk-away vertical seismic profiling in which the source is moved along a line across a well while the signal is recorded in the well at a certain depth. The method was designed to better predict the target horizon below the drill bit and away from the well location. The method has several advantages in areas of complicated overburden. In overthrust regions, the receiver is placed below much of the complicated structure to minimize distortion of the reflected signal. The final seismic image is a depth presentation of the subsurface structure and stratigraphy based on wavefront calculations. This depth estimation is obtained without extensive processing of the recorded data. The final result is available within a few days and can help interpreters to decide if and where to sidetrack the well. The method is demonstrated using an example from the overthrust zone of the Lower Saxonian Basin and the Pompeckj's well in Northern Germany. 相似文献

The paper is concerned with the study of the effect of the randomness of material parameters on mean wave propagation in a semi-infinite viscoelastic medium. The medium considered in this paper is a configuration of a randomly non-homogeneous layer overlying a homogeneous half-space and is loaded harmonically on the top surface. The method used is that of Karal and Keller and is based on the idea of fundamental matrix and Bourret approximation. The integro-differential equation obtained in this paper is solved by the Laplace transform method. By using boundary and continuity conditions the mean wave solution is obtained. Numerical results show that the correlation functions, which introduce long-range interactions, can be the source of the wave amplification. 相似文献

The interaction between a soil layer and an end bearing pile is theoretically investigated. The pile is assumed to be vertical and elastic, the soil is considered as a linear visco-elastic layer with hysteretic type damping. The layer alone is solved first and the wave modes of the layer are used in the analysis of the pile response. The pile response to a harmonic load is obtained in a closed form and used to define stiffness and damping at the level of the pile head. The dimensionless parameters of the problem are identified. A parametric study is conducted to determine the main features of the response and of the equivalent stiffness and damping. The validity of equivalent viscous damping is examined. A comparison is made with the simpler plane strain theory used previously and its accuracy is assessed. 相似文献

This paper presents a method of analysis for the dynamic response of a simply supported beam and slab bridge under the action of a moving vehicle. The bridge is idealized as an orthotropic plate and, in the analysis, is subdivided into a number of finite strips. The vehicle is idealized as a moving sprung mass. Viscous damping is taken into account for both bridge and vehicle. The results show that there is significant variation of response across transverse sections of the bridge. Furthermore the dynamic magnification is considerably greater than that predicted by a more approximate method in which the bridge is idealized as a simple prismatic beam. 相似文献

The paper describes the development of a mode accleration-based response spectrum approach for calculating the seismic design response of the nonclassically damped structures. The response is divided into a pseudo-static part and a dynamic part. The pseudo-static part is calculated by a simple static analysis of the structure for the inertial forces, induced by a unit ground acceleration, applied statically. The dynamic part, of course, pends upon the dynamic characteritics of the structure which are defined in terms of the complex-valued modal characteristics. The correlation between the pseudo-static and dynamic components is properly considered. The design ground input in this approach is defined in terms of the relative acceleration and relative velocity response spectra. The proposed approach has the desired attribute of the mode acceleration approach as the response can be accurately calculated even if only a first few modes are used in the analysis. The approach is computationally more efficient than the convenionally used mode displacement approach. The applicability of the approach is verified by numerical simulation results. 相似文献

Abstract Estimates of rainfall elasticity of streamflow in 219 catchments across Australia are presented. The rainfall elasticity of streamflow is defined here as the proportional change in mean annual streamflow divided by the proportional change in mean annual rainfall. The elasticity is therefore a simple estimate of the sensitivity of long-term streamflow to changes in long-term rainfall, and is particularly useful as an initial estimate of climate change impact in land and water resources projects. The rainfall elasticity of streamflow is estimated here using a hydrological modelling approach and a nonparametric estimator. The results indicate that the rainfall elasticity of streamflow (? P ) in Australia is about 2.0–3.5 (observed in about 70% of the catchments), that is, a 1% change in mean annual rainfall results in a 2.0–3.5% change in mean annual streamflow. The rainfall elasticity of streamflow is strongly correlated to runoff coefficient and mean annual rainfall and streamflow, where streamflow is more sensitive to rainfall in drier catchments, and those with low runoff coefficients. There is a clear relation-ship between the ? P values estimated using the hydrological modelling approach and those estimated using the nonparametric estimator for the 219 catchments, although the values estimated by the hydrological modelling approach are, on average, slightly higher. The modelling approach is useful where a detailed study is required and where there are sufficient data to reliably develop and calibrate a hydrological model. The nonparametric estimator is useful where consistent estimates of the sensitivity of long-term streamflow to climate are required, because it is simple to use and estimates the elasticity directly from the historical data. The nonparametric method, being model independent, can also be easily applied in comparative studies to data sets from many catchments across large regions. 相似文献

Goodness-of-fit tests for the spatial spectral density 总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0

Detection and modeling the spatial correlation is an important issue in spatial data analysis. We extend in this work two
different goodness-of-fit testing techniques for the spatial spectral density. The first approach is based on a smoothed version
of the ratio between the periodogram and a parametric estimator of the spectral density. The second one is a generalized likelihood
ratio test statistic, based on the log-periodogram representation as the response variable in a regression model. As a particular
case, we provide tests for independence. Asymptotic normal distribution of both statistics is obtained, under the null hypothesis.
For the application in practice, a resampling procedure for calibrating these tests is also given. The performance of the
method is checked by a simulation study. Application to real data is also provided. 相似文献

Operation of reservoirs is a fundamental issue in water resource management. We herein investigate well-posedness of an optimal control problem for irrigation water intake from a reservoir in an irrigation scheme, the water dynamics of which is modeled with stochastic differential equations. A prototype irrigation scheme is being developed in an arid region to harvest flash floods as a source of water. The Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman (HJB) equation governing the value function is analyzed in the framework of viscosity solutions. The uniqueness of the value function, which is a viscosity solution to the HJB equation, is demonstrated with a mathematical proof of a comparison theorem. It is also shown that there exists such a viscosity solution. Then, an approximate value function is obtained as a numerical solution to the HJB equation. The optimal control strategy derived from the approximate value function is summarized in terms of rule curves to be presented to the operator of the irrigation scheme. 相似文献

Static corrections for reflection seismic data shot on high velocity crystalline rock can be calculated directly from the data using a global, iterative stackpower optimization. The reflections consist of several peaks, creating the possibility of aligning the wrong peak in the signals. Due to misalignments a large number of local maxima in the stackpower exist in a cyclic manner, only slightly smaller than thes stackpower of the‘best’stack. Therefore the search must be of a global nature. A Monte Carlo search requires long run times. A global search method is presented using a varying sequence of parameters within each iteration. The ability for a set of static corrections and the associated stackpower to move from a local maximum to a larger maximum is enhanced. The performance of the iterative process is improved, so a relatively small number (about 20) of iterations is needed to obtain the optimum set of corrections. The risk of misalignment of traces by using the wrong peak in a signal consisting of several peaks is diminished, and it is less important that the initial set of corrections is close to the final set. The method is illustrated by a synthetic example and on a data set shot on the granites of Dalarna, Sweden. 相似文献
