We present a study of the polarimetric information content of dual-pol imaging modes and dual-pol imaging extended by polarimetric scattering models. We compare Wishart classifications both among the partial polarimetric datasets and against the full quad-pol dataset. Our emphasis is the inter-comparisons between the classification results based on dual-pol modes, compact polarimetric modes and scattering model extensions of the compact polarimetric modes. We primarily consider novel dual-pol modes, e.g. transmitting a circular polarization and receiving horizontal and vertical polarizations, and the pseudo-quad-pol data derived from polarimetric scattering models based on dual-pol data. We show that the overall classification accuracy of the pseudo-quad-pol data is essential the same as the classification accuracy obtained directly employing the underlying dual-pol imagery.  相似文献   

Base isolation for near‐fault motions     

R. S. Jangid  J. M. Kelly 《地震工程与结构动力学》2001,30(5):691-707

Three analytical studies of base‐isolated structures are carried out. First, six pairs of near‐fault motions oriented in directions parallel and normal to the fault were considered, and the average of the response spectra of these earthquake records was obtained. This study shows that in addition to pulse‐type displacements, these motions contain significant energy at high frequencies and that the real and pseudo‐velocity spectra are quite different. The second analysis modelled the response of a model of an isolated structure with a flexible superstructure to study the effect of isolation damping on the performance of different isolation systems under near‐fault motion. The results show that there exists a value of isolation system damping for which the superstructure acceleration for a given structural system attains a minimum value under near‐fault motion. Therefore, although increasing the bearing damping beyond a certain value may decrease the bearing displacement, it may transmit higher accelerations into the superstructure. Finally, the behaviour of four isolation systems subjected to the normal component of each of the near‐fault motions were studied, showing that EDF type isolation systems may be the optimum choice for the design of isolated structures in near‐fault locations.

Modal equations of linear structures with viscoelastic dampers     

Jos A. Inaudi  James M. Kelly 《地震工程与结构动力学》1995,24(1):145-151

Several types of energy dissipation devices using viscoelastic materials have been proposed to reduce vibration in structures subjected to wind and earthquake excitations. At constant temperature and small strain levels, the mechanical behaviour of Viscoelastic (VE) materials can be described using linear operators. In general, the stiffness and damping matrices of structures using VE devices are frequency dependent; this implies that the classical second-order differential equations for the modal co-ordinates are not a complete model for this type of structures. In this paper, the concept of modal coupling in the frequency domain is addressed, expressions for diagonalizable frequency-dependent stiffness and damping matrices are given, and an iterative technique for the computation of the response of viscoelastic structures is studied. Necessary and sufficient conditions for convergence of the technique are given and numerical examples are developed to illustrate the application of the method.  相似文献   

Transport of juvenile gem clams (Gemma gemma) in headland wake     

Kelly L. Rankin  Lauren S. Mullineaux  W. Rockwell Geyer 《Estuaries and Coasts》1994,17(3):655-667

Accumulation of bivalve recruits in the bottom convergence at the center of coastal eddies has been suggested as a possible mechanism resulting in locally abundant adult populations. We investigated transport of juvenile gem clams (Gemma gemma) in a headland wake to determine whether they accumulated, and where. Velocity measurements during three flood tides showed that a wake consistently formed, but that flow speeds were too slow to transport juvenile clams to the eddy center. Instead, the clams were deposited just inside the wake perimeter, where shear velocities decreased to levels below critical erosion velocities of the clams. This result demonstrated that accumulation in a coastal flow separation can occur even in the absence of a well-defined eddy or a strong bottom convergence. Juvenile gem clams were carried, probably as bedload, to regions in the wake dominated by sediments with similar grain sizes, rather than similar fall velocities, suggesting that bedload transport was particularly dependent on particle diameter in this flow regime. Adult gem clam populations tended to be locally abundant in regions receiving transported juveniles, but clam transport on any specific flood tide was not sufficient to fully predict the adult distributions.  相似文献

Effects of annealing on deformation textures in galena     

Brace R. Clark  Floyd R. Price  William C. Kelly 《Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology》1977,64(2):149-165

Experimental annealing of galena samples with known deformation histories shows that this mineral has the necessary properties to be a valuable source of information about low-grade deformational environments. Annealed galena displays recovery and/or recrystallization features dependent upon the type of texture inherited from the tectonic event, which in turn is closely linked to deformation temperatures.In samples deformed at temperatures less than 200 ° C in the laboratory, later annealing produced subgrains, mosaics of new grains, or rapid grain boundary migration as the annealing temperatures were varied from 200 ° C to 700 ° C. Kink bands maintained characteristic straight simple boundaries inherited from the deformation event. Samples deformed above 300 ° C developed syntectonically recrystallized textures. Kink bands had been converted to elongate grains with complex sutured grain boundaries during deformation, and mosaics of new grains were found in highly deformed regions. These textures were extremely stable through later annealing. Despite our changing annealing temperatures through 500 ° C, we did not produce similar textures from both low and high temperature deformation runs.Examination of polished and etched galena from low-grade tectonic settings may well be worth the effort since galena textures appear to display features indicative of deformational evironments, even after being subjected to considerable post-tectonic thermal perturbations.  相似文献   

Chemical fractionations in meteorites—VIII. Iron meteorites and the cosmochemical history of the metal phase     

William R. Kelly  John W. Larimer 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1977,41(1):93-111

The composition of the metal phase is traced through an idealized, traditional history from condensation, oxidation and accretion in the nebula to melting, segregation and freezing in a parent body. Fifteen elements are considered: Au, Co, Cu, Fe, Ga, Ge, Ir, Mo, Ni, Os, Pd, Pt, Re, Rh and Ru. All are strongly siderophile but differ in volatility and melting-freezing behavior. This simplifies the problem yet provides a means to resolve chemical trends which evolve at different stages in the metal's history.The parent bodies of 5 (IC, IIAB, IIC, IID and IIIAB) of the 12 iron meteorite groups resolved by Scott and Wasson (1975) seem to have had a traditional history. That is condensation, oxidation to various levels, accretion, melting, segregation and fractional crystallization during freezing, presumably in cores. The others seem to have had more unusual histories. The composition of the metal in group IVB matches that predicted for the metal condensate at 1270°K (at$\text{P}{}_{\mathrm{T}}\text{= 10}{}^{\mathrm{?5}}\text{atm}$). This implies accretion at high temperatures; no other combination of the processes can produce this composition. It does not rule out secondary processing, however. The metal in group IVA, whose members have different cooling rates (7–200°/myr), has a composition indicative of aggregates in a body undergoing progressive stages of partial melting. This is consistent with a model in which molten metal collects into pods or raisins at various depths. The composition of the metal in group IAB is indicative of a partial melt which refroze during the initial stages of segregation, before it had managed to aggregate into a single mass. The physical setting implied is consistent with observed inhomogeneities in the metal and abundant inclusions.Three of the 12 groups are deficient in volatiles (IIIF, IVA and IVB) implying a high accretion temperature. In all three cases, cooling rates are comparatively rapid, indicating small bodies or low radioactive element contents. Conceivably all three were deficient in K.  相似文献   

Seismic response of torsionally coupled base isolated structures     

Tso-Chien Pan  James M. Kelly 《地震工程与结构动力学》1983,11(6):749-770

An analytical study of the seismic response of typical base isolated structures mounted on rubber bearings is presented. Isolated buildings are liable to have closely spaced lower modes of vibration with small eccentricity between centres of mass and rigidity. The isolated structure is modelled as a rigid deck with lumped masses supported on axially inextensible elastomeric rubber bearings. This simplified system has three degrees of freedom (dof), two translations and one rotation in the horizontal plane. The Green's functions for the displacement response of the 3 dof system are derived for both undamped and damped cases with small and large eccentricities. The small eccentricity case is taken from a specific isolated building, while the large eccentricity case arises from the 5 per cent accidental eccentricity which is required by various seismic codes. An interaction equation for normalized displacements is established for an idealized flat velocity spectrum or hyperbolic acceleration spectrum. An isolated building on rubber bearings would have its fundamental period fall into this range of a design spectrum. Numerical results for the specific building subjected to the El Centro earthquake of 1940 are presented. Both the time history and the response spectrum modal superposition analysis were performed. In the response spectrum analysis, the Complete Quadratic Combination (CQC) showed superiority over the Square Root of the Sum of Squares (SRSS) in estimating maximum responses. It is concluded that the effect of torsional coupling on the transient response of base isolated structures is insignificant, due to the combined effect of the time lag between the maximum translational and torsional responses and the influence of damping in the isolation system which for elastomeric bearings can be as high as 8 to 10 per cent.  相似文献
