The basic equation of motion to analyse the interaction of a non-linear structure and an irregular soil with the linear unbounded soil is formulated in the time domain. The contribution of the unbounded soil involves convolution integrals of the dynamic-stiffness coefficients in the time domain and the corresponding motions. Alternatively, a flexibility formulation for the contribution of the unbounded soil using the dynamic-flexibility coefficients in the time domain, together with the direct-stiffness method for the structure and the irregular soil can be applied. The dynamic-stiffness or flexibility coefficient in the time domain is calculated as the inverse Fourier transform of the corresponding value in the frequency domain. The dynamic-stiffness coefficient's asymptotic behaviour for high frequencies determines the singular part whose transformation exists only in the sense of a distribution. As the dynamic-flexibility coefficient converges to zero for the frequency approaching infinity, the corresponding coefficient in the time domain is simpler to calculate, as no singular part exists. The salient features of the dynamic-stiffness and flexibility coefficients in the time domain are illustrated using a semi-infinite rod with exponentially increasing area. The dynamic-flexibility coefficients in the time domain are calculated for a rigid circular disc resting on the surface of an elastic halfspace and of a layer built-in at its base. Material damping is also introduced using the three-parameter Kelvin and the Voigt models. 相似文献

The contribution of the (linear) unbounded soil to the basic equation of motion of a non-linear analysis of soil-structure interaction consists of convolution integrals of the displacement-force relationship in the time domain and the history of the interaction forces. The former is calculated using the indirect boundary-element method, which is based on a weighted-residual technique and involves Green's functions. As an example of a non-linear soil-structure-interaction analysis, the partial uplift of the basemat of a structure is examined. As the convolution integrals have to be recalculated for each time step, the computational effort in this rigorous procedure is substantial. A reduction can be achieved by simplifying the Green's function by ‘concentrating’ the region of influence. Alternatively, assuming a specified wave pattern, a coupled system of springs and dashpots with frequency-independent coefficients can be used as an approximation. 相似文献

Since 1954 average orthophosphate and total phosphorus concentrations have increased twenty and eightfold respectively in
Lake Sempach. It is demonstrated that the lake is not in steady state with its phosphorus loading and that the net deposition
rate of phosphorus is not linearly related to the phosphorus content of the lake. This implies that linear steady state one-box
models are unsuitable to describe the phosphorus balance of this lake. Applying a nonlinear dynamic lake model we predict
that the defined water quality goals ([P] ⩽30 mg m−3, [O2 ⩾4 mg m−3]) can only be achieved within the next 15 years if the external phosphorus loading is reduced by at least 50% and simultaneously
lake-internal measures, such as hypolimnion areation or hypolimnion siphoning are carried into effect.

The nuclear island of Koeberg with a large basemat, a non-linear base isolation effective in the horizontal direction only, founded on rock, is analysed for inclined body waves and for a combination of surface and body waves associated with prescribed horizontal and vertical components of the control motion. When compared to vertical incidence, an additional rocking component arises, generated by the horizontally propagating vertical component. As the aseismic bearings do not isolate against this rocking component, the corresponding horizontal response bears comparison with that of a conventional structure. The ratio of the response for horizontally propagating waves and that for vertically incident waves is thus considerably larger for the base-isolated structure than for a conventional one. However, the actual design incorporating other loading cases is affected much less. 相似文献

At Mercury's surface external magnetic field contributions caused by magnetospheric current systems play a much more important role than at Earth. They are subjected to temporal variations and therefore will induce currents in the large conductive iron core. These currents give rise to an additional magnetic field superposing the planetary field. We present a model to estimate the size of the induced fields using a magnetospheric magnetic field model with time-varying magnetopause position. For the Hermean interior we assume a two-layer conductivity distribution. We found out that about half of the surface magnetic field is due to magnetospheric or induced currents. The induced fields achieve 7-12% of the mean surface magnetic intensity of the internal planetary field, depending on the core size. The magnetic field was also modeled for a satellite moving along a polar orbit in the Hermean magnetosphere, showing the importance of a careful separation of the magnetic field measurements. 相似文献

Endemic malaria in most of the hot and humid African climates is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality. In the last twenty or so years the incidence of malaria has been aggravated by the resurgence of highland malaria epidemics which hitherto had been rare. A close association between malaria epidemics and climate variability has been reported but not universally accepted. Similarly, the relationship between climate variability, intensity of disease mortality and morbidity coupled with socio-economic factors has been mooted. Analyses of past climate (temperature and precipitation), hydrological and health data (1961–2001), and socio-economics status of communities from the East African highlands confirm the link between climate variability and the incidence and severity of malaria epidemics. The communities in the highlands that have had less exposure to malaria are more vulnerable than their counterparts in the lowlands due to lack of clinical immunity. However, the vulnerability of human health to climate variability is influenced by the coping and adaptive capacities of an individual or community. Surveys conducted among three communities in the East African highlands reveal that the interplay of poverty and other socio-economic variables have intensified the vulnerability of these communities to the impacts of malaria. 相似文献
