We study the creep properties of clastic soil in residual state. The intact samples are taken from a reactivated slow-moving landslide in the Three Gorges Reservoir Region, China. Firstly, the patterns of the landslide movement are analysed based on recent monitoring data, which indicate that the soil within the shear zone is undergoing two deformation processes: a creep phase, characterised by different creep rates, and a dormant phase. We then study the creep behaviour of the soil samples through a series of ring shear creep tests under various shear stress conditions. The creep response depends strongly on the ratio of the shear stress to the residual strength, and the normal effective stress, whereas the creep rate decreases due to strength regain. The long-term strength of the clastic soil is close to the residual strength. Therefore, the residual strength obtained from conventional shear test, which is less time consuming than creep test, can be used in long-term stability analyses of creeping landslides.  相似文献   

Deformation mechanism of strain localization in 2D numerical interface tests     

Huaxiang Zhu  Wan-Huan Zhou  Zhen-Yu Yin 《Acta Geotechnica》2018,13(3):557-573

Heterogeneity arises in soil subjected to interface shearing, with the strain gradually localizing into a band area. How the strain localization accumulates and develops to form the structure is crucial in explaining some significant constitutive behaviors of the soil–structural interface during shearing, for example, stress hardening, softening, and shear-dilatancy. Using DEM simulation, interface shear tests with a periodic boundary condition are performed to investigate the strain localization process in densely and loosely packed granular soils. Based on the velocity field given by grains’ translational and rotational velocities, several kinematic quantities are analyzed during the loading history to demonstrate the evolution of strain localization. Results suggest that tiny concentrations in the shear deformation have already been observed in the very early stage of the shear test. The degree of the strain localization, quantified by a proposed new indicator, α, steadily ascends during the stress-hardening regime, dramatically jumps prior to the stress peak, and stabilizes at the stress steady state. Loose specimen does not develop a steady pattern at the large strain, as the deformation pattern transforms between localized and diffused failure modes. During the stress steady state of both specimens, remarkable correlations are observed between α and the shear stress, as well as between α and the volumetric strain rate.  相似文献   

Cyclic degradation and non-coaxiality of soft clay subjected to pure rotation of principal stress directions     

Jian-Gu Qian  Zi-Bo Du  Zhen-Yu Yin 《Acta Geotechnica》2018,13(4):943-959

Foundation soils are often under non-proportional cyclic loadings. The deformation behaviour and the mechanism of non-coaxiality under continuous pure principal stress rotation for clays are not clearly investigated up to now. In order to study the effect of pure principal stress rotation, a series of cyclic undrained tests on Shanghai soft clay subjected to cyclic rotation of principal stress directions keeping the deviatoric stress constant under the pure rotation condition were conducted using hollow cylinder apparatus. Based on this, the evolutions of excess pore pressure and strains during cyclic loading were investigated, together with the effects of the intermediate principal stress parameter and the deviatoric stress level on stress–strain stiffness and non-coaxiality. The result can provide an experimental basis for constitutive modelling of clays describing the behaviour under non-proportional loadings.  相似文献   

A simple approach to evaluating leakage through thin impervious element of high embankment dams     

Gang Deng  Kui Cao  Rui Chen  Xingxing Zhang  Qi Yin  Hao Zhou 《Environmental Earth Sciences》2018,77(1):25

Internal erosion is the most common reason which induces failure of embankment dams besides overtopping. Relatively large leakage is frequently concentrated at defects of impervious element, and this will lead to eventual failure. The amount of leakage depends not only on integrity of impervious element, but also on dam height, shape of valley, shape of impervious element and water level in reservoir. The integrity of impervious element, which represents the relative level of seepage safety, is not easy to be determined quantitatively. A simple method for generalization of steady seepage state of embankment dams with thin impervious element is proposed in this paper. The apparent overall value of permeability coefficient for impervious element can be obtained by this method with reasonable accuracy and efficiency. A defect parameter of impervious element is defined as an index to characterize seepage safety of embankment dams. It equals the ratio of the apparent overall value of permeability coefficient to the measured value in laboratory for intact materials. Subsequently, seepage safety of three dams is evaluated and the evolution of defect level of impervious element of dams is investigated. It is proved that the newly proposed method in this paper is feasible in the evaluation of relative seepage safety level of embankment dams with thin impervious element.  相似文献   

Advances and Trends in Atmospheric Measurement by Smartphones*     

Xichuan Liu  Taichang Gao  Binsheng He  Lei Liu  Min Yin  Kun Song 《地球科学进展》2018,33(12):1223-1236

With the development and popularization of smartphones and embedded sensors, a non-professional atmospheric measurement method by using smartphones carried by the public has been proposed recently. Without extra dedicated instrument, this method has many advantages, such as low hardware cost, high spatio-temporal resolution, and wide coverage, and it can supplement the professional atmospheric measurement methods, which has broad applications in the meteorological operation, scientific research, public service, and other fields. At present, the research on the non-professional atmospheric measurement in China is limited. In order to make full use of this method, this paper briefly outlined the states of existing smartphones and embedded sensors, highlighted the measurement of precipitation, air temperature, pressure, aerosols, and radiation by smartphones. To promote the development of smartphones for atmospheric measurement, future research should focus on mechanism study, available sources exploration, data quality control, big data processing, joining and matching with operation, research and service, etc.  相似文献   

Geochronology,Geochemistry and Petrogenesis of the Pungco Ophiolite,TibetEI北大核心CSCD     

Wang X.  Xia B.  Liu W.  Zhong Y.  Hu X.  Guan Y.  Huang W.  Yin Z. 《大地构造与成矿学》2018,(3):550-569

Although the middle section of the Bangong-Nujiang suture zone has been intensively investigated, its tectonic framework and evolution is still controversy. The Pungco ophiolite has a relative complete ophiolitic complex, which is an ideal specimen for studying this tricky problem. LA-ICP-MS U-Pb dating of zircons from the diabasic rock yielded an age of 159.0±2.1 Ma. This age suggests that the Pungco ophiolite was formed in the Late Jurassic, indicating the development of the Late Jurassic ophiolite in the third ophiolitic subzone. The whole-rock major and trace element compositions of diabasic and basaltic rocks exhibit mixed arc and N-MORB geochemical characteristics. Two diabasic samples have (87Sr/86Sr)i values of 0.7055 and 0.7063 and εNd(t) values of 11.28 and 11.84, respectively. The geochemical signatures and formation age of the Pungco ophiolite suggest that this ophiolite was probably produced in an active continental fore-arc setting. It originated from a N-MORB-like depleted mantle source with the involvement of subducted-slab fluids. Considering the regional geological background, the Pungco ophiolite was likely generated during the southward subduction of the Bangong-Nujiang Tethyan oceanic lithosphere beneath the Lhasa terrane, and belongs to a regional archipelagic arc-basin system together with the other Early Jurassic-Early Cretaceous ophiolites from the northern Tibet Lake district. © 2018, Science Press.

四川盆地下古生界两套硅质页岩层系是其重要的页岩气产层,五峰组—龙马溪组硅质含量与TOC及含气量呈正相关性,暗示硅质矿物对该地区页岩气的生成具有重要意义。但硅质来源复杂,且存在后期硅质流体的注入。因此,本文在总结前人的研究成果基础上,对四川盆地寒武系底部硅质岩系与五峰组—龙马溪组硅质岩系的硅质特征进行了详细的岩石学分析,揭示了3种硅质来源特征：①同沉积无机硅质流体;②生物硅;③后期无机硅质流体。其中寒武系底部以同沉积无机硅质流体与生物硅来源为主,同沉积硅质流体导致有机质快速石化埋藏,有机质内部结构及形态保存较好;五峰组—龙马溪组硅质来源以后期无机硅质流体与生物硅来源为主,有机质在保存过程中受硅质流体的影响很小,有机质腐泥化作用充分,内部结构和形态多数保存较差。该研究初步揭示了两套页岩层系的硅质发育岩石学特征,及其对有机质保存的影响,期望能为四川盆地两套页岩气储层差异性提供新的思路与基础地质数据。  相似文献

地热回灌是实现地热资源可持续开发的有力措施,在世界各国已获得广泛应用,在地热资源的保护、减少资源浪费、延长地热井寿命以及减少环境污染等方面具有重要意义.天津是我国开展地热回灌比较成熟的地区之一,截至2019年底,天津市基岩裂隙型热储回灌率已达79.61％.大规模集中采灌条件下热储层渗流场的变化以及是否会影响热储温度已成为热储系统研究的前沿课题.本文以天津市东丽湖地区为例,选取1,5-萘磺酸钠作为示踪剂,在2018～2019年供暖期集中采灌期间开展了群井示踪试验,结果显示,供暖期内地热井开采量(或回灌量)、水温没有明显变化,水位除受正常采灌影响外没有明显变化,热储系统基本处于稳定状态;试验中示踪剂回收率极低,开采井和回灌井之间水力联系较差,有限的优势通道中的最大流速为448.42 m/d,优势通道的方向主要集中于北东向,与区内主要控热断裂沧东断裂及其次生断裂的发育方向一致;在现状开发利用模式下,不会造成该热储层温度的显著变化.这些认识对于指导北方古潜山碳酸盐岩热储的科学开发利用具有一定的现实意义.  相似文献

原生高碘地下水在我国有广泛分布,为查明不同区域地下水碘赋存机理的异同,通过选取我国大同盆地以及华北平原为代表性区域,完成区域地下水样品系统性采集及水化学、碘形态测试工作,对区域地下水水环境及其演化特征完成详细刻画.结果表明:大同盆地地下水总碘含量为2.86~1 286 μg/L,华北平原地下水总碘含量为2.40~1 106 μg/L,分别约有50.0%及49.5%地下水碘含量超过（GB19380- 2016）《水源性高碘地区和高碘病区的划定》中界定的100 μg/L国家标准.地下水水环境特征表明,在大同盆地,第四纪河湖相沉积所形成的,富含有机质、偏碱性、还原性、Na-HCO₃型水环境,利于赋存于固相介质上的碘以碘离子的形式进入地下水中,沿地下水流向,富集于盆地中心排泄区;在华北平原,由第四纪6次海侵形成的冲湖积、海积松散沉积物中富含Na、Cl、I等元素,其偏碱性、还原性、Na-Cl型水环境及低水力坡度的平缓地形利于赋存在固相介质上的碘以碘离子的形式进入地下水,沿地下水流向富集于沿海排泄区.控制两个地区高碘地下水形成的相同因素是偏碱性及偏还原的地下水环境,且该环境下碘的主要赋存形态均为碘离子,但大同盆地高碘地下水形成主要受富有机质环境影响,而华北平原高碘地下水形成的主要受富碘的海相沉积控制.   相似文献
