Buckling of Piles under Liquefied Soil Conditions     

K. Shanker  P. K. Basudhar  N. R. Patra 《Geotechnical and Geological Engineering》2007,25(3):303-313

The paper pertains to the analysis of piles embedded in liquefiable soils to predict its’ critical buckling load under partial to full loss of lateral support over a portion of the pile length. The analysis is based on extension of Mindlin solution for a point load acting inside a semi infinite elastic half space. Degenerated solutions obtained by using the developed method compares very well with reported results. Parametric studies showed that the depth of liquefiable soil, degradation of soil strength on liquefaction, slenderness ratio, pile stiffness factor and end conditions have significant influence on the buckling behavior of the piles.  相似文献   

Use of variograms for field magnetometry analysis in Upper Silesia Industrial Region     

J. Zawadzki  P. Fabijańczyk 《Studia Geophysica et Geodaetica》2007,51(4):535-550

Measurements of topsoil magnetic susceptibility are often used for quick assessment of soil contamination of anthropogenic origin, with heavy metals or other pollutants. However, because of complicated correlations between low-field magnetic susceptibility (shortened to magnetic susceptibility) of topsoil and soil pollution, the outcome of a field magnetometry survey can not be related directly to soil pollution. For each case study, the results should be interpreted on their own taking into account not only the type of pollution but also pedogenic, biogenic and environmental factors. In practice, it is very difficult to measure and consider all these factors. Here we illustrate the merit of geostatistical methods, which are focused on the spatial variability of a phenomenon, in the interpretation of soil magnetometry results. This article presents the analysis of spatial variability of top soil layers magnetic susceptibility-within the Upper Silesia Industrial Region (USIR)-using semivariance analysis. It also explains how to adjust the sampling density of field magnetometry measurements to spatial variability of the soil pollution as well as to the spatial scale of the investigated area. For this purpose, the values of magnetic susceptibility have been measured by using various sampling densities at areas of different size located within USIR. This enabled to determine the main scales of magnetic susceptibility spatial variability of soils within USIR using semivariance. A few distinct scales of variability were found from the site scale to a more regional scale. Variability ranges of 30 km, 12 km, and 5 km refer to the large regional scale, whereas smaller ranges of few hundreds down to a few tens of meters, can be attributed to the local (site) scale. In addition, the precision of the measuring campaigns, performed within USIR with different sampling densities, was compared through the analysis of the spatial variability of the soil magnetic susceptibility signal by using ordinary kriging. jarek97@yahoo.com, piotr.fabijanczyk@is.pw.edu.pl  相似文献   

Terrestrial vegetation carbon sinks in China, 1981―2000     

FANG JingYun  GUO ZhaoDi  PIAO ShiLong  CHEN AnPing 《中国科学D辑(英文版)》2007,50(9)

Using China's ground observations, e.g., forest inventory, grassland resource, agricultural statistics, climate, and satellite data, we estimate terrestrial vegetation carbon sinks for China's major biomes between 1981 and 2000. The main results are in the following: (1) Forest area and forest biomass carbon (C) stock increased from 116.5×106 ha and 4.3 Pg C (1 Pg C = 1015 g C) in the early 1980s to 142.8×106 ha and 5.9 Pg C in the early 2000s, respectively. Forest biomass carbon density increased form 36.9 Mg C/ha (1 Mg C = 106 g C) to 41.0 Mg C/ha, with an annual carbon sequestration rate of 0.075 Pg C/a. Grassland, shrub, and crop biomass sequestrate carbon at annual rates of 0.007 Pg C/a, 0.014―0.024 Pg C/a, and 0.0125―0.0143 Pg C/a, respectively. (2) The total terrestrial vegetation C sink in China is in a range of 0.096―0.106 Pg C/a between 1981 and 2000, accounting for 14.6%―16.1% of carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted by China's industry in the same period. In addition, soil carbon sink is estimated at 0.04―0.07 Pg C/a. Accordingly, carbon sequestration by China's terrestrial ecosystems (vegetation and soil) offsets 20.8%―26.8% of its industrial CO2 emission for the study period. (3) Considerable uncertainties exist in the present study, especially in the estimation of soil carbon sinks, and need further intensive investigation in the future.  相似文献

本文探讨了有关土饱和度确定的两个问题，由于试验技术手段的限制，土堆栈 饱和度只能通过其它物理性质指标之间的关系来求取，这样换算得到的饱和度往往偏大，并且，根据实验分析，地下水位以下的粘性土并不都是饱和的，因此，在岩土工程中，非饱和土工力学亟待深入研究。  相似文献

土的可恢复剪胀的一种解释     

刘元雪  施建勇 《岩土力学》2002,23(3):304-308

从土的各向异怀角度对土的可恢复剪胀现象进行了解释。基于各向异性情况下的土体弹性本构关系理论分析，认为土的可恢复剪胀现象可部分归因于土的各向异性引起的弹性剪胀。借助有关土体弹性参数实验结果，研究了应力诱导各迥异性对土体弹性剪胀的影响，结果表明：随土体应力诱导各向异性的增大，土体的弹性剪胀也增大。从土体弹性剪胀角度研究了土的卸荷体缩条件，认为土体卸荷体缩取决于加载应力路径的应力增量比，给出了土体出现卸荷体缩的区域。  相似文献   

The value of a physically based model versus an empirical approach in the prediction of ephemeral gully erosion for loess-derived soils   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  

Jeroen Nachtergaele  J. Poesen  A. Steegen  I. Takken  L. Beuselinck  L. Vandekerckhove  G. Govers 《Geomorphology》2001,40(3-4)

A data set on soil losses and controlling factors for 58 ephemeral gullies has been collected in the Belgian loess belt from March 1997 to March 1999. Of the observed ephemeral gullies, 32 developed at the end of winter or in early spring (winter gullies) and 26 ephemeral gullies developed during summer (summer gullies). The assessed data have been used to test the physically based Ephemeral Gully Erosion Model (EGEM) and to compare its performance with the value of simple topographical and morphological indices in the prediction of ephemeral gully erosion.Analysis shows that EGEM is not capable of predicting ephemeral gully cross-sections well. Although conditions for input parameter assessment were ideal, some parameters such as channel erodibility, critical flow shear stress and local rainfall depth showed great uncertainty. Rather than revealing EGEM's inability of predicting ephemeral gully erosion, this analysis stresses the problematic nature of physically based models, since they often require input parameters that are not available or can hardly be obtained.With respect to the value of simple topographical and morphological indices in predicting ephemeral gully erosion, this study shows that for winter gullies and summer gullies, respectively, over 80% and about 75% of the variation in ephemeral gully volume can be explained when ephemeral gully length is known. Moreover, when previously collected data for ephemeral gullies in two Mediterranean study areas and the data for summer gullies formed in the Belgian loess belt are pooled, it appears that one single length (L)–volume (V) relation exists (V=0.048 L^1.29; R²=0.91). These findings imply that predicting ephemeral gully length is a valuable alternative for the prediction of ephemeral gully volume. A simple procedure to predict ephemeral gully length based on topographical thresholds is presented here. Secondly, the empirical length–volume relation can also be used to convert ephemeral gully length data extracted from aerial photos into ephemeral gully volumes.  相似文献

可变电荷土壤和恒电荷土壤与氢离子相互作用机理   总被引：2，自引：4，他引：2

研究了可变电荷土壤和恒电荷土壤与H相互作用的机理，并比较了它们之间的差别，研究结果表明，氢离子输入土壤后可以转化为表面正电荷，可溶性铝和可交换性酸，但是由于土壤的组成和性质不同，不同土壤中H＋三种去向的贡献不同。H＋转化为表面正电荷是由于土壤表面Fe-OH,Al-OH的质子化造成的，因此H＋转化为表面正电荷的能力与土壤中氧化铁的含量密切相关，从而可变电荷土壤中H＋转化为表面正电荷的贡献比恒电荷土壤中的大。H＋转化为可溶性铝的能力与土教育部 的矿物组成密切相关，随着H＋输入量的增加，土壤中可溶性铝的含量也增加。可变电荷土壤中可溶性铝增加的顺序为红壤＞赤红壤＞铁质砖红壤，在H＋的加入量小于15mmol/kg时，黄棕壤的可溶性铝介于红壤和赤红壤之间，当H＋的加入量大于约15mmol/kg时，黄棕壤的可溶性铝略小于赤红壤，棕壤的可溶性铝明显小于红壤和赤红壤，但比铁质砖红壤高，恒电荷土壤的可变性酸量明显大于可变电荷土壤，但从总的看来，H＋加入量的变化对可交换性酸量的影响不大。  相似文献
