The regular wave interaction with a twin concentric porous circular cylinder system consisting of an inner impermeable cylinder and an outer perforated cylinder was studied through physical model and numerical model studies. The experiments were carried out on the twin concentric cylinder model in a wave flume to study the wave runup and rundown at the leading and trailing edges of the perforated cylinder. It was found that the maximum wave runup on the perforated cylinder is almost same as the incident wave height. The experimental results were used to develop the predictive formulae for the wave runup and rundown on the perforated cylinder, which can be easily used for design applications. The wave runup profiles around the perforated cylinder for different values of ka and porosities were studied numerically using Green's Identity Method. The results of the numerical study are presented and compared with the experimental measurements. 相似文献

Variations of atmospheric pressure in the North Atlantic region during Forbush decreases of galactic cosmic rays were investigated. A noticeable pressure growth with the maximum on the 3rd and 4th days after the Forbush decrease onsets was revealed over Scandinavia and the northern region of the European part of Russia. It was shown that the observed pressure growth was caused by the formation of blocking anticyclones in the region of the climatic Arctic front, as well as by the sharp slowing of the movement of North Atlantic cyclones. It was suggested that the particles that precipitate in the regions of the climatic Arctic and Polar fronts, with the minimum energies E～20–80 MeV and ～2–3 GeV, respectively, may influence the processes of cyclone and anticyclone formation and development at extratropical latitudes. 相似文献

Shear wave velocity (V
s) is one of the most important input parameter to represent the stiffness of the soil layers. It is preferable to measure
V
s by in situ wave propagation tests, however it is often not economically feasible to perform the tests at all locations. Hence,
a reliable correlation between V
s and standard penetration test blow counts (SPT-N) would be a considerable advantage. This paper presents the development
of empirical correlations between V
s and SPT-N value for different categories of soil in Chennai city characterized by complex variation of soil conditions. The
extensive shear wave velocity measurement was carried out using Multichannel Analysis of Surface Waves (MASW) technique at
the sites where the SPT-N values are available. The bender element test is performed to compare the field MASW test results
for clayey soils. The correlations between shear wave velocity and SPT-N with and without energy corrections were developed
for three categories of soil: all soils, sand and clay. The proposed correlations between uncorrected and energy corrected
SPT-N were compared with regression equations proposed by various other investigators and found that the developed correlations
exhibit good prediction performance. The proposed uncorrected and energy corrected SPT-N relationships show a slight variation
in the statistical analysis indicating that both the uncorrected and energy corrected correlations can predict shear wave
velocity with equal accuracy. It is also found that the soil type has a little effect on these correlations below SPT-N value
of about 10. 相似文献

The hydrodynamic performance of a dual cylindrical caisson breakwater (DCBW) formed by a row of caissons each of which consisting of a porous outer cylinder circumscribing an impermeable inner cylinder has been theoretically investigated. The theoretical formulation is based on the eigenfunction expansion method proposed by Spring and Monkmeyer (1974) which was further modified by Linton and Evans [Linton, C.M., Evans, D.V., 1990. The interaction of waves with arrays of vertical circular cylinders. Journal of Fluid Mechanics 215, 549–569] for an array of impermeable cylinders. The present formulation is an extension of the work of Wang and Ren [Wang, K.H., Ren, X., 1994. Wave interaction with a concentric porous cylinder system. Ocean Engineering 21(4), 343–360], wherein; the interaction of linear waves with a single concentric porous cylinder system was studied. In the present study, the formulation has been extended to the case of a group of porous dual cylinder system. Parametric studies are carried out to study the influence of porosity (G0) on the outer caisson, width of the doughnut chamber (a/b) and the angle of wave incidence on the variation in the hydrodynamic loading, wave run-up, free-surface elevation in its vicinity as well as the transmission on its lee-side. The importance of the presence of the inner cylinder in achieving the required hydrodynamic performance in terms of either protection or providing tranquility on its lee side keeping higher stability for the breakwater system is highlighted. 相似文献

Catastrophic failures of many tsunami barriers along the affected coasts during the 2011 Tohoku earthquake tsunami has prompted extensive investigation into improving and revising design codes for tsunami defence structures. To date, researchers and coastal engineers are investigating to understand the failure mechanisms and to find solutions so that the structures merely remain intact in the extreme event such as tsunami. Thus, the present work is motivated to experimentally study tsunami-induced bore pressures exerted on vertical seawalls; a solid vertical wall and a porous vertical seawall that consisted of a perforated front wall and a solid rear wall. Bores with various heights and velocities were generated by using the dam-break method. A porous seawall with 20% porosity of perforated front wall was used in this study. Bore pressures exerted on the solid rear wall and chamber oscillations that occurred in the experiments were also discussed. The experimental results showed that multiple peak pressures were observed during bore run-up phase in the time series of bore impacts. A predictive equation to estimate the maximum bore pressure on a perforated seawall was developed using multiple regression analysis. The proposed equation was also compared with previous empirical formulas. 相似文献

The “HYDRUS package for MODFLOW” is an existing MODFLOW package that allows MODFLOW to simultaneously evaluate transient water flow in both unsaturated and saturated zones. The package is based on incorporating parts of the HYDRUS-1D model (to simulate unsaturated water flow in the vadose zone) into MODFLOW (to simulate saturated groundwater flow). The coupled model is effective in addressing spatially variable saturated-unsaturated hydrological processes at the regional scale. However, one of the major limitations of this coupled model is that it does not have the capability to simulate solute transport along with water flow and therefore, the model cannot be employed for evaluating groundwater contamination. In this work, a modified unsaturated flow and transport package (modified HYDRUS package for MODFLOW and MT3DMS) has been developed and linked to the three-dimensional (3D) groundwater flow model MODFLOW and the 3D groundwater solute transport model MT3DMS. The new package can simulate, in addition to water flow in the vadose zone, also solute transport involving many biogeochemical processes and reactions, including first-order degradation, volatilization, linear or nonlinear sorption, one-site kinetic sorption, two-site sorption, and two-kinetic sites sorption. Due to complex interactions at the groundwater table, certain modifications of the pressure head (compared to the original coupling) and solute concentration profiles were incorporated into the modified HYDRUS package. The performance of the newly developed model is evaluated using HYDRUS (2D/3D), and the results indicate that the new model is effective in simulating the movement of water and contaminants in the saturated-unsaturated flow domains. 相似文献

Cambodia is one of the most vulnerable countries to climate change impacts such as floods and droughts. Study of future climate change and drought conditions in the upper Siem Reap River catchment is vital because this river plays a crucial role in maintaining the Angkor Temple Complex and livelihood of the local population since 12th century. The resolution of climate data from Global Circulation Models (GCM) is too coarse to employ effectively at the watershed scale, and therefore downscaling of the dataset is required. Artificial neural network (ANN) and Statistical Downscaling Model (SDSM) models were applied in this study to downscale precipitation and temperatures from three Representative Concentration Pathways (RCP 2.6, RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5 scenarios) from Global Climate Model data of the Canadian Earth System Model (CanESM2) on a daily and monthly basis. The Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) and Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI) were adopted to develop criteria for dry and wet conditions in the catchment. Trend detection of climate parameters and drought indices were assessed using the Mann-Kendall test. It was observed that the ANN and SDSM models performed well in downscaling monthly precipitation and temperature, as well as daily temperature, but not daily precipitation. Every scenario indicated that there would be significant warming and decreasing precipitation which contribute to mild drought. The results of this study provide valuable information for decision makers since climate change may potentially impact future water supply of the Angkor Temple Complex (a World Heritage Site). 相似文献

The bifurcation behavior of an articulated loading platform subjected to harmonic excitation is investigated by the incremental harmonic balance (IHB) method. The platform is modeled as a single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) non-linear system with piecewise non-linear restoring force characteristics. The elements of the Jacobian matrix and the residue vector arising in the IHB formulations are derived in closed form. The path-following procedure using the arc length continuation method is used to trace the response curves and bifurcation diagrams. The periodic solutions and the subharmonic solutions obtained by the IHB method compare very well with the numerically integrated solutions. The bifurcation points also compare well with the numerically obtained results. The system exhibits chaotic motion through a sequence of period doubling bifurcations. Isolated period 3 solutions are also present. The Lyapunov exponents are computed and the initial condition map corresponding to coexistent attractors are obtained by the interpolated cell mapping (ICM) method. 相似文献

In this study, the behavior of thermal fronts along the fracture is studied in the presence of fracture-skin in a coupled
fracture-matrix system. Cold water is injected into the fracture, which advances gradually towards production well, while
extracting heat from the surrounding reservoir matrix. The heat conduction into the fracture-skin and the rock-matrix from
the high permeability fracture is assumed to be one dimensional perpendicular to the axis of fluid flow along the fracture.
Constant temperature cold water is injected through an injection well at the fracture inlet. The fluid flow takes place along
the horizontal fracture which ensures connectivity between the injection and production wells. Since the rock-matrix is assumed
to be tight, the permeability of fracture-skin as well as the rock-matrix is neglected. The present study focuses on the heat
flux transfer at the fracture-skin interface as against the earlier studies on fracture-matrix interface, and the sensitivity
of additional heterogeneity in the form of fracture skin in a conventional fracture-matrix coupled system is studied. The
behavior of thermal fronts for various thermal conductivity values of the fracture-skin and rock-matrix is analyzed. Spatial
moment analysis is performed on the thermal distribution profiles resulting from numerical studies in order to investigate
the impact on mobility and dispersion behavior of the fluid in the presence of fracture-skin. The presence of fracture skin
affects the heat transfer significantly in the coupled fracture-matrix system. The lower order spatial moments indicate that
the effective thermal velocity increases with increase in skin thermal conductivity and a significant thermal dispersion is
observed at the inlet of the fracture owing to the high thermal conductivity of the fracture-skin at the early stages. Furthermore
the higher spatial moments indicate that the asymmetricity increases with decrease in skin thermal conductivity unlike the
case with half fracture aperture and fluid velocity and the kurtosis is maximum with higher skin thermal conductivity which
implies enhanced heat extraction from the fracture-skin into the fracture. Results suggest that the amount of heat extraction
by the circulating fluid within the fracture from the reservoir not only depends on the rock-matrix module of the reservoir
characteristics but also the fracture-skin characteristics of the system and subsequently influence the reservoir efficiency. 相似文献
