Distribution of some trivalent ions between melt and single crystals of Mg₂SiO₄ grown by the Czochralski method     

Takaaki Kobayashi  Humihiko Takei 《Earth and Planetary Science Letters》1977,36(1):231-236

Partition coefficients for trace amounts of trivalent ions between artificial single crystals of Mg₂SiO₄ grown by the Czochralski method and the coexisting melt have been determined by neutron activation analysis. They are found to vary greatly with the amount of visible imperfections in the crystal and slightly with the concentration of the ions in the melt. Plots of the partition coefficients against ionic radius of the trace ions give a pattern which agrees qualitatively with that found in a natural olivine phenocryst-groundmass pair.  相似文献   

Oxygen isotopic heterogeneities,their petrological correlations,and implications for melt origins of chondrules in unequilibrated ordinary chondrites     

James L. Gooding  Toshiko K. Mayeda  Robert N. Clayton  Takaaki Fukuoka 《Earth and Planetary Science Letters》1983,65(2):209-224

Ten whole chondrules separated from the Dhajala (H3, 4), Hallingeberg (L3), and Semarkona (LL3) chondrites were individually analyzed for bulk element composition by instrumental neutron activation with half of each chondrule subsequently sacrificed for oxygen isotopic analysis and half retained for petrographic and electron microprobe analysis. On a three-isotope plot (δ¹⁷O vs. δ¹⁸O), the chondrules neither cluster near their respective chondrite hosts nor in the vicinities of previously recognized chondrite group averages. Instead, they define a trend resolvable into mixing and fractionation components but dominated by mixing in a manner similar to that previously observed for clasts from the LL3 chondrite ALHA76004. Covariations of chondrule isotopic mixing and fractionation parameters with petrological parameters were sought by two-variable linear least-squares regression analyses. However, the only two isotopic/petrological correlations significant at the 95% confidence level were δ¹⁷O vs. total bulk Fe (r = ?0.68) and mixing parameter,m¹⁸, vs. bulk weight ratio (CaO + Al₂O₃)/MgO (r = +0.67). Other correlations of apparent statistical significance were found by treating the chondrules as separate porphyritic (3 porphyritic olivine-pyroxene, 1 porphyritic olivine, 1 barred olivine) and non-porphyritic (4 radial pyroxene, 1 granular pyroxene/cryptocrystalline) textural subgroups. The reliability of the trends, based on so few samples, is not clear but the results at least indicate that possible existence of distinct isotopic/petrological subgroups of chondrules should be further investigated. Absence of certain isotopic/petrological trends expected as condensation effects argues against direct nebular condensation as the dominant process of chondrule formation. Instead, a model involving melting of heterogeneous solids, followed by various degrees of liquid/gas exchange, is favored. In any case, chondrule oxygen isotopic evolution was dominated by two-component mixing; fractional vaporization was, at most, a second-order effect. In addition to chondrules, parent bodies of unequilibrated ordinary chondrites must have also incorporated a¹⁶O-rich component which might have been fine-grained “matrix”.  相似文献   

Dynamic characteristics of lateral load-deflection relationships of flexible piles     

Takaaki Kagawa  Leland M. Kraft 《地震工程与结构动力学》1981,9(1):53-68

Most offshore platforms are supported on long and large-diameter piles with variable wall-thickness along the length, and soil properties varying with depth. The design and analyses of these piles are made by modelling the soil-pile system with a beam-on-Winkler foundation. Therefore, evaluation of appropriate soil-pile springs for use in such analyses is a matter of concern. Fundamental characteristics of dynamic lateral load-deflection relationships for piles were studied analytically considering the soil-pile-structure interaction under seismic loading conditions. The soil layer was assumed homogeneous, linearly elastic with hysteretic type material damping, and overlying a rigid base. A superstructure with multi-degrees of freedom was supported by a single vertical pile hinged at the rigid base. Parametric studies were carried out to identify the influence of the system parameters on the behaviour of the dynamic lateral load-deflection relationships of piles. The lateral load-deflection relationships vary considerably with depth and are influenced not only by the dynamic properties of soil but also by the structural properties of a pile and loading conditions. These lateral load-deflection relationships can be used to define the soil-pile springs for the seismic response analysis of a soil-pile-structure system, and the results can be extended to problems with soil profiles with layering and non-linearity.  相似文献

Timing of rotational motion of Southwest Japan inferred from paleomagnetism     

Yo-ichiro Otofuji  Takaaki Matsuda 《Earth and Planetary Science Letters》1984,70(2):373-382

Paleomagnetic field directions for the period younger than 35 Ma are obtained from igneous rocks distributed in the San'in district, Inner Zone of Southwest Japan. The remanent magnetization of samples between 30 and 35 Ma old are fairly well grouped with a mean direction of D = 65.9°, I = 48.6°, and ₉₅ = 6.5°. This result establishes that Southwest Japan rotated clockwise 56 ± 12° during the past 30 m.y. A declination value of about 60° is observed in the rocks of 28 Ma ( D = 52.2°, I = 33.5°) and 21 Ma (D = 69.9°, I = 49.5°). Comparing this with results from dacitic rocks with an age of 15 Ma in other areas of Southwest Japan suggests that rotational motion did not occur possibly until 15 Ma. These results require that the rotation of Southwest Japan occurred just after the Shikoku Basin had been created.  相似文献   

Amount of clockwise rotation of Southwest Japan — fan shape opening of the southwestern part of the Japan Sea     

Yo-Ichiro Otofuji  Takaaki Matsuda 《Earth and Planetary Science Letters》1987,85(1-3)

Paleomagnetic measurements have been carried out on welded tuffs ranging in age between 58 Ma and 112 Ma from Yamaguchi and Go¯river areas in the central part of Southwest Japan. The new data, together with those of younger igneous rocks published previously, define the change of paleomagnetic field direction during the late Mesozoic/ Cenozoic period for Southwest Japan. The paleomagnetic direction from this area has pointed 56 ± 3° clockwise from the expected field direction estimated from APWP (apparent polar wandering path) of the whole of Eurasia during the period between 100 and 20 Ma. In comparison with the expected one from the eastern margin of Eurasia (Korea, China, Siberia), the Cretaceous field direction of Southwest Japan shows the clockwise deflection by 44–49°. These results establish that while the eastern margin of Eurasia, including Southwest Japan, was rotated more or less with respect to the main part of Eurasia during last 100 Ma, Southwest Japan was rotated clockwise through more than 40° with respect to the eastern margin of Eurasia since 20 Ma. The large amount of rotation for Southwest Japan implies that it is rotated by an opening of the southwestern part of the Japan Sea, which widens northeastward (fan shape opening). The tectonic feature of Southwest Japan and the Japan Sea is analogous to that of Corso-Sardinia and the Ligurian Sea in the Mediterranean, indicating that the fan shape opening is a specific feature of the rifting of the continental sliver at the continental rim.  相似文献

The use of GSI (Gram Stain Index) was studied for natural microbial cells in slightly and extremely saline environments. The GSI spectra of archaeal cells in an extremely saline environment showed unique profiles, different from those of Bacteria. These profiles can be applied for structural analysis of the microbial communities in aquatic environments.  相似文献   

Is water-ice the carrier of the 3μm-absorption in infrared objects?     

Tadashi Mukai  Sonoyo Mukai  Kunio Noguchi 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1978,53(1):77-84

It is shown that Mie theory predictions of extinction for pure water-ice with the optical constant measured at 100 K do not fit in detail the observed ice absorption feature in infrared objects, although we attempt to explain the observations by considering size distribution and shape of the grains.In addition, based on a similarity between the ice band and the absorption band found in carbon stars, we feel it is questionable whether or not the ice band can really be attributed to the interstellar water-ice.  相似文献   

DO-increasing effects of a microscopic bubble generating system in a fish farm     

Endo A  Srithongouthai S  Nashiki H  Teshiba I  Iwasaki T  Hama D  Tsutsumi H 《Marine pollution bulletin》2008,57(1-5):78-85

We have developed a "microscopic bubble generating system for the fish farm" and evaluated its ability to improve the quality of seawater and costs of it in marine cages of red sea bream (Pagrus major) in Kusuura Bay, Japan. Our results revealed that DO concentration of bubbling net pens increased and became significantly higher than the level outside the net pen (between 0.52 and 0.87 mg/L), and the whole water column was nearly saturated. Temperatures of the bubbling net pens decreased slightly between 0.08 and 0.12 degrees C in all the layers. Furthermore, micro-bubbles seemed to reach the deeper water due to the downward flow and diffusion. This study demonstrated that the microscopic bubble generating system developed in our research project could increase efficiently the dissolved oxygen concentration throughout all water layers of the fish farm. A capital and operation costs of the system is recoverable within a year.  相似文献
