Geologic features and durability of limestones at the sphinx     

K. L. Gauri  A. N. Chowdhury  N. P. Kulshreshtha  A. R. Punuru 《Environmental Geology》1990,16(1):57-62

Geologic features considered to influence durability of the limestone at the sphinx are depositional history, evolution of porosity, and development of joints. These strata have two orthogonal groups of vertical joints. Where these joints intersect, wedge-shaped blocks are separating, causing loss of material from the core. Major reduction of the sphinx, however, is occurring due to salt crystallization aided by the ink-bottle pore systems prevailing in these rocks.The weathering profile exhibits alternating layers, less and more highly weathered. The less weathered rock is a biomicritic grainstone with smaller quantities of halite and gypsum and a larger large-pore-to-throat ratio than the indented, predominantly micritic, layers with larger concentration of salts and a smaller large-pore-to-throat ratio. Based upon poresize distributions, pressures generated in the pores have been calculated using thermodynamic principles, and an equation has been derived that provides a quantitative measure of durability of these rocks.  相似文献

P. C. Ram  S. S. Singh  R. K. Jain 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1990,168(2):209-216

A study of natural convection in hydrodynamic flows of a viscous heat generating fluid in the presence of Hall currents and variable suction has been carried out. The governing equations for the magnetohydrodynamic fluid flow and heat transfer are solved. The effects of Hall currentm and heat source parameter on the velocity and temperature distributions are discussed.  相似文献   

Re-analysis of close binary systems     

K. Indulekha  W. Kundt  B. S. Shylaja 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1990,172(1):1-14

Line-forming regions around close binaries with strong winds ( /4r _* v 10^–4 g cm^–2) are large in extent compared with the stars, large enough to screen them. Their orbitally-modulated Doppler shifts can overestimate the mass function, because of a larger rotational lever arm. In particular, most of the black-hole candidates need not involve companions more massive than a neutron star.The solar-wind problem is reconsidered. An extrapolation to Wolf-Rayet stars suggests that their winds are centrifugally driven. Their mass-loss rates tend to have been overestimated.Seemingly single (massive) stars can hide a (compact) companion.  相似文献   

Thermochemical and pressure-volume-temperature systematics of data on solids,examples: Tungsten and MgO     

S. K. Saxena  J. Zhang 《Physics and Chemistry of Minerals》1990,17(1):45-51

Data systematization using the constraints from the equation $$Cp = Cv + \alpha _P {}^2V_T K_T T$$ where C _p, C _v, α _p, K _T and V are respectively heat capacity at constant pressure, heat capacity at constant volume, isobaric thermal expansion, isothermal bulk modulus and molar volume, has been performed for tungsten and MgO. The data are $$K_T (W) = 1E - 5/(3.1575E - 12 + 1.6E - 16T + 3.1E - 20T^2 )$$ $$\alpha _P (W) = 9.386E - 6 + 5.51E - 9T$$ $$C_P (W) = 24.1 + 3.872E - 3T - 12.42E - 7T^2 + 63.96E - 11T^3 - 89000T^{ - 2} $$ $$K_T (MgO) = 1/(0.59506E - 6 + 0.82334E - 10T + 0.32639E - 13T^2 + 0.10179E - 17T^3 $$ $$\alpha _P (MgO) = 0.3754E - 4 + 0.7907E - 8T - 0.7836/T^2 + 0.9148/T^3 $$ $$C_P (MgO) = 43.65 + 0.54303E - 2T - 0.16692E7T^{ - 2} + 0.32903E4T^{ - 1} - 5.34791E - 8T^2 $$ For the calculation of pressure-volume-temperature relation, a high temperature form of the Birch-Murnaghan equation is proposed $$P = 3K_T (1 + 2f)^{5/2} (1 + 2\xi f)$$ Where $$K_T = 1/(b_0 + b_1 T + b_2 T^2 + b_3 T^3 )$$ $$f = (1/2)\{ [V(1,T)/V(P,T)]^{2/3} - 1\} $$ $$\xi = ({3 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {3 4}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 4})[K'_0 + K'_1 \ln ({T \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {T {300}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {300}}) - 4]$$ where in turn $$V(1,T) = V_0 [\exp (\int\limits_{300}^T {\alpha dT)]} $$ . The temperature dependence of the pressure derivative of the bulk modulus (K′₁) is estimated by using the shock-wave data. For tungsten the data are K′₀ = 3.5434, K′₁ = 0.032; for MgO K′₀ = 4.17 and K′₁ = 0.1667. For calculating the Gibbs free energy of a solid at high pressure and at temperatures beyond that of melting at 1 atmosphere, it is necessary to define a high-temperature reference state for the fictive solid.  相似文献   

Water in India with reference to agriculture and population: some issues and patterns —dynamic approaches needed for development     

Roy BK 《GeoJournal》1990,20(3):271-284

In this paper an attempt is made to present some facets of status of water for agriculture and population in India. The issues are basic in nature which have been focused by scholars all over time and again. The materials are gathered from various sources to highlight and to consider a plea in the context of population-hydrological regions of the country to develop water potentials. Some characteristic mapping has also been conducted showing the main parameters of water utilization, need and spatial issues regarding consumptive use of water during agricultural operations as per the seasons prevalent in India. A relation is also established with the drought areas leading to assess the need for water. The human problems specially in relation to the safe drinking water is also projected in relation to distributional qualities with reference to natural regions by districts. The study does not claim a full assessment of the water issue due to paucity of statistics on water use, generation and potentials but it does indicate in many ways the geographical problems as an important study for further research by all concerned.  相似文献   

Crustal structure of the Rhenish Massif: results of deep seismic reflection lines Dekorp 2-North and 2-North-Q   总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0

The reflection seismic line DEKORP 2-N reveals an almost complete cross section through the Rhenohercynian Zone, the most external part of the Variscan orogen in Europe.The northern part of DEKORP 2-N and a NE-directed branch (2-N-Q) reveal the Cretaceous of the Münsterland basin and the underlying folded Palaeozoic rocks. The northward decreasing intensity of folding is depicted in great detail by the highly reflective Late Carboniferous coal-measures and deeper reflections down to the level of the Givetian/Frasnian shallow-water carbonates.In the Devonian and older rocks of the Rhenish Massif, bedding is only represented by relatively weak, short and irregular reflections. These are truncated by stronger, southward dipping reflections, which exhibit the listric curvature and flat/ramp geometry characteristic of faults. In the northern part of the section, the thrusts appear to be blind. From the Ebbe Anticline southwards, prominent reflections can be correlated with important thrust faults known from the surface, such as the Ebbe-, Siegen-, Müsen- and Sackpfeife- Thrusts, as well as further important thrust faults in the Lahn- and Dill Synclines. The basal thrust of the extremely thin-skinned Giessen Nappe is only recognizable for a very short distance.At depth, the thrusts flatten out in a relatively transparent zone between 3–5 s TWT, with strongly reflective bands at its bottom and top. The transparent zone might correlate with a high-conductivity layer detected in a magnetotelluric survey; it represents either graphitic metapelites or a zone with an interconnected, brine-filled pore space. The seismic record relates either to lithological differences, or to rheological boundaries.The lower crust in the north is characterized by a relatively transparent zone, which wedges out towards south under the northern margin of the Siegen Anticline. Comparisons with a similar feature in the ECORS profile »Nord de la France« suggest that the transparent zones in both sections correspond to a pre-Palaeozoic basement, such as it underlies the Brabant Massif. Further south, the lower crust is increasingly reflective.The curvilinear, thrust-related reflections are cut by a conjugate set of much weaker, N- and S-dipping reflectors indicating a later deformation with pure shear. Displacement of some marker reflections suggests late- or post-Variscan compression.In an alternative interpretation, these straight and weak reflections represent the only thrust faults, while the curvilinear elements might relate to bedding.A southward rise of the Moho from approx. 11 to 8.5 s TWT is probably due to Tertiary rifting.

Zusammenfassung Das reflexionsseismische Profil DEKORP 2-N stellt einen fast vollständigen Querschnitt durch das Rhenohercynikum dar.Der nördliche Teil des Profiles 2-N sowie ein SW/NE-verlaufender Abzweig (2-N-Q) zeigen die Transgression der Münsterländer Kreide und das unterlagernde gefaltete Paläozoikum. Schichtgebundene Reflektoren (flözführendes Karbon, devonischer Massenkalk) bilden das Ausklingen der variscischen Faltung nach NW detailliert ab.In den devonischen und vordevonischen Sedimenten des rechtsrheinischen Schiefergebirges erzeugt die Schichtung nur relativ schwache, kurze und unregelmäßige Reflexionen. Diese werden von stärkeren, südfallenden Reflektoren abgeschnitten, die aufgrund ihrer listrischen Krümmung und flat/ramp-Geometrie wahrscheinlich als Überschiebungen zu interpretieren sind. Im Nordteil des Schiefergebirges sind diese Überschiebungen offenbar blind, werden also nahe der Oberfläche durch Faltung kompensiert. Im Ebbe-Sattel und weiter südlich lassen sich die meisten der starken, südfallenden Reflektoren zweifelsfrei mit bekannten Großüberschiebungen korrelieren (Ebbe-, Siegen-, Müsen-, Sackpfeife-Ü, sowie weitere Überschiebungen in der Lahn- u. Dill-Mulde). Die Basisüberschiebung der Giessen-Decke wird nur teilweise abgebildet.Zur Tiefe hin zeigen die Überschiebungen ein zunehmend flacheres Einfallen, und verschwinden in einer relativ transparenten Zone zwischen 3 und 5 s TWT, die im Hangenden und Liegenden durch dünne, stark reflektive Zonen begrenzt ist. Diese transparente Zone entspricht möglicherweise einer Zone hoher integrierter Leitfähigkeit, die in einem begleitenden magnetotellurischen Experiment nachgewiesen worden ist; es handelt sich entweder um einen Graphit-führenden Phyllit-Horizont oder eine mächtigere permeable Zone mit Elektrolyt-gefülltem Porenraum. Die hochreflektiven Bänder über und unter der transparenten Zone entsprechen entweder lithologischen Kontrasten oder rheologischen Grenzen, die vermutlich von einer scherenden Verformung überprägt worden sind.Die Unterkruste im N-Teil des Profiles enthält einen relativ transparenten Bereich, der nach Süden hin unter dem Nordteil des Siegener Sattels keilförmig ausläuft. Ein ähnliches Bild zeigt der Nordteil des ECORS-Profiles »Nord de la France«. Die transparenten Bereiche beider Profile entsprechen wahrscheinlich einem prä-paläozoischen kristallinen Basement, das das Brabanter Massif unterlagert und sich rechtsrheinisch fortsetzt. Südlich des transparenten Keiles wird die Unterkruste zunehmend reflexionsreicher. Die listrisch gekrümmten, an Überschiebungen gebundenen Reflektoren werden von einem konjugierten System schwächerer, N- u. S-fallender Reflektoren abgeschnitten, die auf eine jüngere, bruchhafte Verformung durch reine Scherung hindeuten. Der Versatz einiger älterer Reflektoren deutet auf spät- oder postvariscische Kompression hin.In einer alternativen Interpretation werden nur diese jüngeren Reflektoren als Überschiebungen gedeutet; die älteren, gekrümmten Elemente müßten dann primären lithologischen Grenzen entsprechen.Die Moho steigt von ca. 11 s TWT im N auf 8.5 s TWT unter dem Taunus an. Die Krustenverdünnung im Süden geht wahrscheinlich auf Dehnung im Tertiär zurück.

Résumé Le profil sismique par réflexion DEKORP-2-N représente une transversale quasiment complète à travers la zone rhénohercynienne. La partie septentrionale du DEKORP-2-N ainsi qu'une branche de direction SW-NE (2-N-Q) mettent en évidence la transgression du Crétacé du Münsterland sur le Paléozoïque sous-jacent plissé. Des réflecteurs liés à la stratification (à savoir: le Houiller et les calcaires de plate-forme dévoniens) illustrent de façon détaillée la diminution vers le nord de l'intensité du plissement varisque.Dans les sédiments dévoniens et pré-dévoniens du Massif Rhénan à l'est du Rhin, la stratification ne fournit que que des réflexions relativement faibles, courtes et irrégulières. Elles sont tronquées par des réflecteurs plus intenses, à pendage sud qui, en raison de leur courbure listrique et de leur géométrie en «flat/ramp», doivent être interprétés comme des chevauchements. Dans la partie septentrionale du Massif, ces chevauchements sont apparemment aveugles, c'est-à-dire qu'ils sont compensés, près de la surface, par le plissement. Dans l'anticlinal d'Ebbe, ainsi que plus au sud, la plupart des réflecteurs intenses à plongement sud peuvent être corrélés avec des chevauchements majeurs connus, tels ceux de Ebbe, Siegen, Müsen, Sackpfeife et d'autres encore dans les synclinaux de la Lahn et de la Dill. Le chevauchement basai de la nappe de Giessen n'est que partiellement représenté.Les chevauchements deviennent de plus en plus plats en profondeur pour disparaître dans une zone relativement transparente qui se situe entre 3–5 sec TWT. Celle-ci est prise en sandwich par des zones minces à forte réflectivité. La zone transparente correspond probablement à une zone de conductivité intégrée élevée dont l'existence a par ailleurs été démontrée dans un essai magnétotellurique mené parallèlement. Il s'agit soit d'un horizon phyllitique graphiteux, soit d'une zone perméable plus épaisse dont les pores sont remplis d'électrolyte. Les bandes à haute réflectivité au-dessus et en-dessous de la zone transparente correspondent soit à des contrastes lithologiques, soit à des limites rhéologiques probablement accentuées par la déformation cisaillante.La croûte inférieure dans la partie septentrionale du profil comporte un domaine relativement transparent qui s'amincit vers le S et se termine, en dessous de la partie nord de l'anticlinal de Siegen, en forme de coin. La partie nord du profil ECORS «Nord de la France» montre une image semblable.Les domaines transparents des deux profils correspondent vraisemblablement à un soubassement cristallin pré-paléozoïque qui est sousjacent au Paléozoïque du Massif du Brabant et se prolonge vers l'est au-delà du Rhin. Au sud du coin transparent, la réflectivité de la croûte inférieure va en augmentant. Les réflecteurs listriques liés à des chevauchements sont recoupés par un système conjugué de réflecteurs plus faibles à plongement nord et sud qui indiquent des failles plus récentes. Le déplacement de quelques réflecteurs plus anciens suggère l'effet d'une compression tardiou post-varisque.Dans une interprétation alternative, seuls ces réflecteurs plus récents sont considérés comme correspondant à des chevauchements. Dans ce cas, les éléments courbes plus anciens devraient représenter des limites lithologiques primaires.Le Moho s'élève à partir de 11 sec TWT environ au nord jusqu'à 8.5 sec TWT en-dessous du Taunus. L'amincissement crustal au sud résulterait du régime de distension survenu au Tertiaire.

Astron observations of the Rapid Burster MXB 1730-335 and constraints on burster parameters from spectra of trailing bursts     

A. D. Kaminker  G. G. Pavlov  Yu. A. Shibanov  V. G. Kurt  E. Yu. Shafer  A. S. Smirnov  V. M. Shamolin  I. F. Kopaeva  E. K. Sheffer 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1990,173(2):171-189

We report on eight X-ray bursts detected by ASTRON from the Rapid Burster (RB) on 13 and 28 April and 16 August, 1983. Six of them (trailing bursts), with durations of 1.5–2 min, rise times of 5–10 s and intervals of 1–1.5 hours, exhibit spectral softening during the burst decay and may be related to the type I bursts. Two of the bursts (triangle bursts) observed on 28 April at interval of 28 min with much longer rise times (30–50 s) and longer durations (3 min), do not show distinct spectral softening. Persistent flux from RB on 16 August was estimated asF _p(2.0–2.4)×10^–9 erg cm^–2 s^–1. Spectral evolution of two trailing bursts was investigated by fitting their spectra in consecutive time intervals with the blackbody (BB), isothermal scattering photosphere (SP) and thermal bremsstrahlung (TB) models. Around the burst maxima the SP model fits the data best whereas in the burst tails the TB model is generally better. The BB model is worse than at least one of the two others. Interpretation of the burst spectra in terms of the BB radiation leads to improbably small neutron star mass and radius (M<0.86M ,R _NS<5 km) if the peak luminosity does not exceed the Eddington limit. Interpretation of the spectra around the burst maxima (3–15 s from the burst onset) in terms of an isothermal SP yields reasonable constraints onM,R _NS, and distanceD. For instance, for the hydrogen photosphere we obtainedM=(1.0–2.1)M R _NS=(7.1–16.4) km ifD=11 kpc. If one postulatesM=1.4M , thenD=(8.5–13) kpc for hydrogen photosphere; if, besides,D=11 kpc, thenR _NS=(8.1–13.3) km. It follows also from the SP-interpretation that the photosphere radius may increase up to 20–30 km in maxima of the trailing bursts when the luminosity becomes close to the Eddington luminosity.  相似文献   

MEASURED UNDERWATER NEAR-FIELD E-PATTERNS OF A PULSED,HORIZONTAL DIPOLE ANTENNA IN AIR: COMPARISON WITH THE THEORY OF THE CONTINUOUS WAVE,INFINITESIMAL ELECTRIC DIPOLE1     

W. A. WENSINK  G. GREEUW  J. HOFMAN  J. K. VAN DEEN 《Geophysical Prospecting》1990,38(7):805-830

At Delft Geotechnics the technique of ground-penetrating radar is in use for the detection of buried objects such as pipes. To enable us to give our ‘measurements in the field’ a more quantitative interpretation than can be deduced from these alone, a series of experiments has been started under well-defined conditions. A cylindrical vessel containing water simulates wet soil. Mounted horizontally above the water surface is a pulsed triangular half-wave dipole which is used as a transmitting antenna (TA). It has a carrier-frequency of about 160 MHz and a pulse repetition-frequency of about 50 kHz. A movable receiving dipole (‘probe’) in the water measures the transverse, mutually orthogonal E_φ,- and E_θ-components of the pulses as a function of probe-position (r, θ, φ) and of the height h of the TA above the water surface. When these pulses are Fourier-transformed, the transverse electric fields E_φ and E_θ at 200 MHz are obtained. The resulting field patterns are compared with computational results on the basis of the theory of the continuous wave, infinitesimal electric dipole (‘point dipole’). It can be concluded that:

• 1 Far-field conditions have not fully developed at a depth of about 2.50 m, the largest value of the radius r at which field patterns were measured, although it represents a distance of about 15 wavelengths.
• 2 The attenuation constant of the tapwater used, as deduced from E-field measurements for θ= 0, 2.50 m < r < 2.75 m, is slightly less than the value measured using a network analyser and air line combination, in agreement with (1).
• 3 E _φ field patterns calculated using the value of the conductivity σ corresponding to the former value of the attenuation constant agree reasonably well with the measured patterns for r≤ 2.50 m and for θ < 20° at all antenna heights considered. Calculated Eφ patterns do not agree so well with the measured patterns when h is close to zero. With increasing height the agreement inproves.
• 4 In accordance with the theory of the point-dipole, the angular distribution of the radiation patterns of the TA becomes wider as the frequency decreases.
• 5 The normalized underwater pulse-spectra shift to lower frequencies with increasing r. This can be explained since the attenuation constant of the water rises with rising frequency.

Periodicities in natural remanent magnetization and palaeoclimatic records detected by walsh spectra     

J. G. Negi  R. K. Tiwari 《Pure and Applied Geophysics》1990,132(4):757-769

The time series consisting of nonsinusoidal Natural Remanent Magnetization (NRM) and palaeoclimatic variations for the past two million years have been spectrally examined by using a new Walsh transform technique. The results show statistically significant periodicities (at 95% confidence level) of approximately 92,000 years; 43,000 years and 21,000 years in the ensemble spectra of the NRM intensity (mineralogic) variations. These NRM periodicities are remarkably close to the well-known Milankovitch cycles. The ensemble spectra of palaeoclimatic records reveal only 41,000 years statistically significant (95%) periodicity corresponding to the obliquity cycle. The study suggests that NRM variations in deep sea sediments probably are more sensitive recorders of palaeoclimatic memory than the oxygen isotope variations.  相似文献
