An event-based stochastic forecasting approach is used to model water inrushes into underground works under karstic water hazard. The stochastic properties of inrushes are related to the statistical properties of fissures in the karstic rock. The probability distributions (DF) of five random variables of interest in design are estimated; namely, inrush yield q, number N of inrushes per unit area, distance L between inrushes, maximum q_max in N events and total yield Q. The phenomenological hypotheses of log normal DF of q and Poisson DF of N are reinforced by observation data. On the basis of these DF, a Monte Carlo simulation of a spatial Poisson process of inrushes is run to estimate the DF of q_max and Q. The derivation of Bayesian DF to account for parameter uncertainty is discussed. The stochastic model is used for design and operation of minewater control facilities in the Transdanubian karstic region of Hungary.  相似文献

Computer aided multi-parameter signal correlation is used to develop a common high-precision age model for eight gravity cores from the subtropical and subantarctic South Atlantic. Since correlations between all pairs of multi-parameter sequences are used, and correlation errors between core pairs (A, B) and (B, C) are controlled by comparison with (A, C), the resulting age model is called a stratigraphic network. Precise inter-core correlation is achieved using high-resolution records of magnetic susceptibility κ, wet bulk density ρ and X-ray fluorescence scans of elemental composition. Additional δ¹⁸O records are available for two cores. The data indicate nearly undisturbed sediment series and the absence of significant hiatuses or turbidites. After establishing a high-precision common depth scale by synchronously correlating four densely measured parameters (Fe, Ca, κ, ρ), the final age model is obtained by simultaneously fitting the aligned δ¹⁸O and κ records of the stratigraphic network to orbitally tuned oxygen isotope [J.

Fischer, G. Wefer (Eds.), Use of proxies in paleoceanography: Examples from the South Atlantic, Springer-Verlag, Berlin (1999), pp. 601-633.]. Besides the detection and elimination of errors in single records, the stratigraphic network approach allows to check the intrinsic consistency of the final result by comparing it to the outcome of more restricted alignment procedures. The final South Atlantic stratigraphic network covers the last 400 kyr south and the last 1200 kyr north of the Subtropical Front (STF) and provides a highly precise age model across the STF representing extremely different sedimentary regimes. This allows to detect temporal shifts of the STF by mapping δMn / Fe. It turns out that the apparent STF movements by about 200 km are not directly related to marine oxygen isotope stages.  相似文献
