A new approach for predicting the extreme response of structures     

Ulla Botelho Machado 《Applied Ocean Research》2002,24(6):321-330

In this article a method to estimate the mean upcrossing intensity, μ(u), of a stochastic process is proposed. It is assumed that the stochastic process is a sum of a Gaussian process and a second-order correction term. The method is based on the two-dimensional Saddlepoint approximation. The accuracy of the method is tested on processes having analytical solutions for μ(u). Numerical examples are given where the stochastic process represents (i) the horizontal response of a floating offshore structure in a Gaussian sea, and (ii) the response of a structure subjected to a Gaussian wind velocity process. In addition, the estimates are compared to empirical upcrossing intensities of simulated responses. For case (ii), the obtained μ(u) estimates are compared to estimates obtained by numerical integration.  相似文献   

浙江省海岸侵蚀及防治概述     

谢钦春  李全兴 《海洋学研究》1992,10(3):46-52

浙江海岸侵蚀现象普遍存在。基岩海岸海蚀地貌发育,因其组成物质抗冲蚀能力强,岸线后退不明显;砂砾质海岸普遍发生侵蚀,尤其是无计划的人工挖沙,造成沙滩减小或消失;淤泥质海岸大多处于缓慢的淤涨状态,但由于自然条件的改变和人为作用的影响,某些岸段发生侵蚀,特别是受到台风暴潮的影响,岸线在短时间内出现大规模后退和滩面下蚀。侵蚀岸段主要见于杭州湾北岸澉浦至金丝娘桥岸段,杭州湾南岸临山至西三岸段及瓯江口北岸盘石至黄华岸段。淤泥质海岸后缘为滨海平原,组成物质为粘土质粉砂,抗冲蚀能力弱,为防止和减轻海岸侵蚀,沿岸建造各类海岸工程(海塘、丁坝、导堤等),提高防潮抗浪能力,在朝滩种植大米草,互花米草,消浪促淤明显。另外,在海岸开发活动中,应加强海岸侵蚀监测和综合管理。  相似文献   

Phytoplankton production in two east coast estuaries: Photosynthesis-light functions and patterns of carbon assimilation in Chesapeake and Delaware Bays     

Lawrence W. Harding  Jr  Blanche W. Meeson  Thomas R. Fisher  Jr 《Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science》1986,23(6)

Chesapeake Bay is a large and productive estuary that has received close scrutiny in recent years because of indications that its water quality and biota have been damaged by man's activities. Data on primary production for the estuary as a whole, however, are surprisingly sparse. We describe here the distribution of photosynthetic carbon assimilation by phytoplankton in Chesapeake Bay, and relate productivity patterns to hydrographic characteristics of the estuary. Between March 1982 and April 1983, a series of four cruises was conducted on Chesapeake Bay, and two cruises on the urbanized Delaware Bay for comparison. The upper Chesapeake and Delaware were highly turbid with high concentrations of suspended particulate matter and dissolved inorganic nutrients. Low chlorophyll concentrations were usually found in these areas of high turbidity, despite the abundance of nutrients, suggesting light limitation. Application of Wofsy's (1983) model of phytoplanton growth confirmed this suggestion. Chlorophyll and productivity maxima usually occurred seaward of the turbidity maxima where light penetration increased and suffient nutrients were present to support active phytoplankton growth. Further seaward of the chlorophyll maxima in the Chesapeake, the photic zone depth increased, concentrations of nutrients decreased, and phytoplankton biomass decreased, suggesting that nutrient availability, rather than light, controlled phytoplankton growth in the lower portion of the estuary. In contrast to the Chesapeake, Delaware Bay was more turbid, had generally higher nutrient concentrations, and was lower in phytoplankton productivity. The chlorophyll maxima and region of rapid phytoplankton growth occurred further toward the lower estuary and shelf regions in Delaware Bay because the high turbidity extended further seaward. Nutrients were never depleted at the shelf end of the estuary sufficiently to retard phytoplankton growth. Photosynthesis-irradiance (P-I) curves from simulated in situ and constant intensity incubations showed a strong correlation of the light-limited slope (a^B) with the light-saturated rate ( ) on each cruise. Spatial variations in corresponded to patterns of phytoplankton abundance, as did integral production (PP) and carbon-based growth rates (μ_C, μ_m), and photosynthetic parameters varied significantly with temperature.  相似文献   

塔里木盆地的构造演化   总被引：6，自引：0，他引：6  

杨克绳 《海洋地质前沿》2005,21(2):25-29

从地震大剖面显示，塔里木盆地发育为手风琴式的演化史。大体上形成有3层“断-坳”结构：①震旦系的“断”，古生界-三叠系的“坳”；②侏罗系的“断”，上白垩系的“坳”；③古近系的“断”，新近系的“坳”。断陷与坳陷分别由拉张与挤压应力场所致，这种应力场的变化是由相邻洋壳板块俯冲倾角由小到大的变化所引起的。由于地壳的多旋回运动，多次发生构造沉积演变，构成了多套生储盖组合，多领域、多种圈闭类型的油气藏，从震旦系-古生界-中生界-新生界，各断陷-坳陷结构的盆地都有可能形成油气藏的地质条件。  相似文献

舟山外钓山海岸边坡泥沙动力与冲淤演变特征     

刘毅飞  夏小明  贾建军 《海洋通报》2007,26(6):53-60

通过对研究区海域的水文泥沙进行现场测验,对比1960-1962年海图、1995年和2001年水下地形图三期地形数据和分析浅地层探测数据等方法,分析了舟山外钓山岛西海岸边坡的水动力、悬浮泥沙及冲淤特征,探讨了海岸边坡发育演变的模式与机制。研究结果表明,在基岩岬角海岸与潮流深槽的边界控制及往复潮流的作用下,舟山外钓山岛西海岸边坡演变是一个"上淤下冲"的模式,即边坡变陡至边坡土体失稳并在不定期外力触发下滑塌堆积坡脚,然后上部重新淤积、下部滑坡体不断被侵蚀的循环过程。  相似文献

周勇  吴世敏  周萍 《热带海洋学报》2003,22(2):17-29

对哀牢山—红河断裂带中段和平—水塘剖面、墨江—元江剖面和其它地段的岩石应变及磁组构进行了分析，表明应变强度的校正磁各向异性度PJ从断裂带向西至三叠系明显降低，变形强度向西迅速减弱。磁化率椭球体主轴展布反映出剪切带内、外变形方式的改变。剪切带内，以水平走滑运动为主；向西则以水平缩短为主。在应变分析中，对断裂带内的S—C组构两组面理夹角、杏仁体和石榴石应变标志体进行了测量，结果显示，剪切带内的磁组构和岩石组构间关系较差。此外，还对这两条剖面中的三叠系进行了应变和磁组构分析，找出了它们与磁化率椭球体对应轴率间的相关性。  相似文献   

辽东湾两侧砂质海岸侵蚀灾害与防治   总被引：9，自引：1，他引：9  

王玉广  李淑媛  苗丽娟 《海岸工程》2005,24(1):9-18

自20世纪60年代至90年代，由于多种原因，辽东湾东西两侧的初始沙质海岸侵蚀范围逐年扩大，侵蚀不断加剧，给当人民的生产和生活带来严重危害。由多年监测资料发现，侵蚀严重的熊岳岸线以2～4m／a的速率而大幅度后退，特别严重的地区最大后退达10km；辽西绥中某些岸段平均每年后退1～2m。20世纪90年代后期，由于一些海域管理措施的出台和相应的海岸防护工程的建设，海岸侵蚀逐渐减弱。通过现场调查和多年监测，分析了辽东湾东西两侧砂质海岸侵蚀的特点，认为海岸组成物质松散与海岸动力作用强烈是本区现代海岸侵蚀的基本条件，人为活动是关键因素，并提出了海岸侵蚀灾害的防治对策。  相似文献

雨生红球藻细胞转化、虾青素积累与光照强度的关系及不同品系间的差异性     

李颖逾  刘建国  林伟  崔效杰  薛彦斌 《海洋科学》2006,30(9):36-41

于2004年利用3个品系的雨生红球藻(H0、H2和H3)和以去除营养物质的藻液为实验对象,探讨了光强对细胞转化和虾青素积累的影响。结果表明,光照强度对红球藻虾青素积累和细胞转化有显著影响,并在品系间存在一定差异性。其中:品系H0在光强≤25000lx时虾青素积累量随光强的增加而增加,光强在20000～35000lx时虾青素积累量处于较高水平,而光照强度>35000lx时,虾青素积累量随光强的升高而下降;H2品系在光强≤25000lx时虾青素积累量随光强的增加而增加,光强在25000lx左右时虾青素积累量较高,当光强≥35000lx时,虾青素积累大幅度下降;H3品系在≤35000lx时虾青素积累量随光强的升高而增加,20000~45000lx为虾青素积累较适宜的光强,高于45000lx时虾青素积累量则明显下降。进一步分析得出,弱光导致红球藻虾青素含量较低是光照强度不足、细胞内虾青素含量少的结果,而强光下虾青素含量下降则是细胞受到损伤、细胞数量减少导致的。对比研究发现:在较低光强下(20000~25000lx)H2单个细胞内虾青素积累量略低于H0,但其积累虾青素总量却最高,这是由于此时H2不动细胞增长速率比其它品系高造成的,不过适宜H2积累虾青素的光照范围最窄,它对高光强的耐受性也最差;而H3在较低光强下虾青素积累总量及单个细胞内的积累速率均最低,但是它的适宜光照范围最宽,即对高光强的耐受性最强,在较大的光强波动范围内都可以保证较高的安全转化量,这就使得它在较高的光强下虽然单个细胞积累虾青素的速率仍然最低,积累总量反而显著高于其它两个品系。  相似文献
