Numerical modelling of bifurcation and localisation in cohesive-frictional materials     

René de Borst 《Pure and Applied Geophysics》1991,137(4):367-390

Methods are reviewed for analysing highly localised failure and bifurcation modes in discretised mechanical systems as typically arise in numerical simulations of failure in soils, rocks, metals and concrete. By the example of a plane-strain biaxial test it is shown that strain softening and lack of normality in elasto-plastic constitutive equations and the ensuing loss of ellipticity of the governing field equations cause a pathological mesh dependence of numerical solutions for such problems, thus rendering the results effectively meaningless. The need for introduction of higher-order continuum models is emphasised to remedy this shortcoming of the conventional approach. For one such a continuum model, namely the unconstrained Cosserat continuum, it is demonstrated that meaningful and convergent solutions (in the sense that a finite width of the localisation zone is computed upon mesh refinement) can be obtained.  相似文献

宋岳雄 《上海国土资源》1994,(1):19-24

本文利用应变椭球体理论,对东海陆架盆地地质应力场进行了分析,在东海陆架盆地中北西西向断裂自中新生代以来,表现了张性的特征,对油气的储盖均起着破坏作用。除北西西以外的其它方向的断裂,在长期压应力作用的情况下,最终均转变成压性、压扭性的断裂,其中反转构造对油气的储集和保存起到了积极的作用。  相似文献   

Abnormal Variation of H2, Hg and Other Fault Soil Gases Before Earthquake     

Gao QingwuInstitute of Geology  SSB  Beijing  China 《中国地震研究》1994,(4)

By observing the variation of fault soil gases,we can understand the activity of faults and information on earthquake precursors.Two fault soil gas observation spots were set up at the Xiadian fault east of Beijing and at the Houhaoyao geothermal area in Huailai(Hebei Province)during November-December 1989.Concentrations of fault soil gases H2,Ar,CO2,CH4,Hg,etc.were observed.Before several moderate-strong earthquakes in 1990,the concentrations of fault soil gases such as H2 and Hg all showed abnormal variations quite significantly.In this paper,we mainly discuss the relation of these fault soil gases to earthquake activity.  相似文献

青藏高原东缘鲜水河断裂带磁组构特征及构造意义   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  

陈应涛  张国伟  鲁如魁  谢晋强  郭泱泱 《岩石学报》2013,29(3):977-989

为了探究鲜水河断裂带的几何学、运动学特征,在野外构造、显微构造分析基础上,研究了鲜水河断裂带296块构造岩定向样品的磁组构特征和热磁特征,结果显示样品的平均磁化率km值总体较小,属微弱磁性到弱磁性;热磁实验及其显微构造表明顺磁性的页硅酸盐(如黑云母)等矿物对糜棱岩类样品磁化率贡献较大;磁化率各向异性度PJ总体较大,表明鲜水河断裂带构造变形强烈;磁化率椭球体形状参数T总体大于0,扁率E总体在1附近分布,说明鲜水河断裂带磁化率椭球体以扁圆形为主,整体上磁面理较磁线理发育,进一步显示出鲜水河断裂带构造变形样式以剪切、压扁为主,伴有拉伸的构造变形,同时也反映出鲜水河断裂带多次变形的综合特征;最小磁化率主轴Kmin方位表明鲜水河断裂带北段和南段分别受近EW向和NE-SW向主压应力控制;同时Kmin方位及其倾伏角特征显示鲜水河断裂带总体以左行走滑剪切为主,北段两侧块体在鲜水河断裂带两次不同的构造活动时期,各自有一定的相对抬升,但抬升幅度均不大;南段则是SW块体相对NE块体抬升,抬升幅度较大;整个断裂带特征显示出鲜水河断裂带在向南发展逐渐转化为挤压构造,这可能与青藏高原物质的向东逃逸受阻以及鲜水河断裂带与龙门山断裂带在此交接的地质背景不无关系.  相似文献

New insights into the deformation of a Middle Pleistocene glaciotectonised sequence in Norfolk,England through magnetic and structural analysis     

Edward J. Fleming  Carl T.E. Stevenson  Michael S. Petronis 《Proceedings of the Geologists' Association. Geologists' Association》2013

North Norfolk is a classic area for the study of glacial sediments with a complex glaciotectonic deformational history, but the processes leading to the formation of some structures can be ambiguous. Anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) analyses, providing quantitative fabric data, have been combined with the analysis of visible structures and applied to the Bacton Green Till Member, exposed at Bacton, Norfolk. Thermomagnetic curves, low temperature susceptibility and acquisition of isothermal remanent magnetism (IRM) reveal that the magnetic mineralogy is dominated by paramagnetic phases. The magnetic foliation is parallel to fold axial planes and weakly inclined to bedding, whilst the magnetic lineation is orientated parallel to stretching, indicated by the presence of stretching lineations and the trend of sheath folds. Variations in the orientation of the magnetic lineation suggest that the Bacton section has been subject to polyphase deformation. After subaqueous deposition, the sequence was overridden by ice and glaciotectonically deformed which involved stretching initially north–south, then east–west. These results show that AMS can be used to detect strain in three dimensions through a glaciotectonite where paramagnetic mineralogy is dominant. This approach therefore provides further support to the use of AMS as a fast, objective and accurate method of examining strain within deformed glacial sediments.  相似文献   

The effects of Dissolution–Precipitation Creep on quartz fabrics within the Purgatory Conglomerate,Rhode Island     

《Journal of Structural Geology》2013

Quartz Crystallographic Preferred Orientation (CPO) patterns are most commonly a result of deformation by dislocation creep. We investigated whether Dissolution–Precipitation Creep (DPC), a process that occurs at lower differential stresses and temperatures, may result in CPO in quartz. The Purgatory Conglomerate is part of the SE Narragansett basin where strain intensity increases from west to east and is associated with top-to-the-west transport and folding during the Alleghanian orogeny. Within the Purgatory Conglomerate, DPC led to quartz dissolution along cobble surfaces perpendicular to the shortening direction, and quartz precipitation in overgrowths at the ends of the cobbles (strain shadows), parallel to the maximum extension direction. Quartz c-axis orientations as revealed by Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) methods were random in all analyzed domains within the cobbles and strain shadows irrespective of the intensity of strain or metamorphic grade of the sample. Quartz dissolution probably occurred exclusively along the cobbles' margins, leaving the remaining grains unaffected by DPC. The fact that quartz precipitated in random orientations may indicate that the strain shadows were regions of little or no differential stress.  相似文献   

A geometric model for the formation of deformation band clusters     

《Journal of Structural Geology》2013

Arrays of closely-spaced (approximately <70 mm) sub-parallel cataclastic deformation bands are common structures in deformed, high-porosity (∼10–35%) sandstones. The distribution of strain onto many small-displacement deformation bands is thought by some to result from strain-hardening of the cataclasite within individual bands. Examination of both normal and strike-slip faults with displacements ≤7 m from southeastern Utah, USA, and the North Island of New Zealand suggests, however, that clusters of deformation bands systematically develop at fault geometric irregularities (e.g., fault bends, steps, relays, intersections and zones of normal drag). The strain-hardening model does not account for clustering of deformation bands at fault geometric irregularities or the associated widespread coalescence of bands, and is not unequivocally demonstrated by post-peak macroscopic mechanical responses in laboratory rock deformation experiments. A geometric model is proposed in which individual bands within clusters develop sequentially due to migration of incremental shear strains at fault geometric irregularities as part of a slip localisation, asperity removal and strain weakening process. The geometric model, which does not require strain hardening of the fault rock, applies for the duration of faulting and a range of rock types in the brittle upper crust.  相似文献   

Reproducing fling-step and forward directivity at near source site using of multi-objective particle swarm optimization and multi taper     

Ahmad Nicknam  A. Hosseini  H. Hamidi Jamnani  M. A. Barkhordari 《地震工程与工程振动(英文版)》2013,12(4):529-540

This paper presents a technique to reproduce compatible seismogran3s involving permanent displacen3ent effects at sites close to the fault source. A multi-objective evolutionary algorithm is used to minimize the differences between the response spectra and multi-tapered power spectral delsilies corresponding to the recorded and simulated wavelbrms. The multi-taper method is used to reduce the spectral leakage that is inherent in the Fourier rams formed form ofwavelbrms, ieading to a reduction of variance in power spectral amplitudes, thus permitting the calibration of the two sets of data. The technique is implemented using the 1998-Fandoqa （lran） earthquake data and the results are compared with the actual observed data. Additionally, a comparison is made with a SAR interfcrometry study leading to fair agreement with the reported dislocation along the main fault. The simulation procedure and results are discussed and assessed concluding that, although the technique may be associated with uncertainties, it can still be used to reproduce wavelbnns at near source sites that include permanent dislocation, and can be used for seismic pertbrmance evaluation of structures in the region under study.  相似文献
