天然胶结钙质土强度及微观结构研究     

朱长歧  周斌  刘海峰 《岩土力学》2014,35(6):1655-1663

自20世纪80年代起,国内就开展了关于岛礁钙质土岩土工程性质的研究工作,至今已经取得了大量的研究成果,但上述研究工作均是针对松散钙质土进行的,针对岛礁上广泛分布的胶结钙质土的研究工作尚未系统开展。而国外大量工程实践表明,胶结钙质土具有完全不同于松散钙质土的工程性状。针对天然胶结钙质土的空间各向异性,从微观角度研究影响其强度的主要参数,为今后的胶结钙质土的分类研究提供理论指导。文中采用多种试验研究方法,最后建立了天然胶结钙质土的密度、胶结度、孔隙度、颗粒大小等参数与强度间的对应关系,当前的研究结果表明,天然胶结钙质土的密度及胶结度与强度间存在良好的相关性。  相似文献   

The electrification of dust-lofting gust fronts (‘haboobs’) in the Sahel     

E. Williams  N. Nathou  E. Hicks  C. Pontikis  B. Russell  M. Miller  M.J. Bartholomew 《Atmospheric Research》2009,91(2-4):292-298

Two Doppler radars and a suite of auxiliary surface observations are used to document the electrical, aerosol and aerodynamic properties of dust-lofting gust fronts near Niamey, Niger during the AMMA (African Monsoon Multidisciplinary Analysis). Electrification with dominant negative polarity is a common behavior, consistent with earlier studies on dust devils and the Harmattan wind in dry environments.  相似文献   

通过碎屑低温年龄恢复西南天山古高度     

丁汝鑫  梁世友  何将启 《吉林大学学报(地球科学版)》2017,47(3)

目前使用低温年代学来恢复造山带古地形,主要是采用在造山带内部采样来做原地高度的恢复。本文提出用碎屑颗粒低温年代学来恢复造山带平均古高度变化率的方法,即通过山间盆地或山前堆积碎屑物大量的单颗粒年龄,获取蚀源区大面积的、区域性的平均剥露速率,进而通过均衡校正计算出蚀源区的平均古高度变化率,为造山带古地形恢复提供了新的途径。本文以西南天山为例进行尝试,通过已发表的339个碎屑颗粒裂变径迹年龄,获得西南天山的68 Ma(年龄峰期)的剥露速率为0.740.60km/Ma,平均古高度变化率为0.150.23km/Ma、0.120.19km/Ma(降低率)。显示西南天山在68 Ma以来发生了比较快速的剥露,如果不考虑构造抬升等因素,平均古高度也发生了比较快速的降低,如果按8 Ma以来计算,则正好降低了1 0001 500m。  相似文献   

Polarimetry Of Comet Hale-Bopp: Linear And Circular Polarization, Stellar Occultation     

V. K. Rosenbush  N. M. Shakhovskoj  A. E. Rosenbush 《Earth, Moon, and Planets》1997,78(1-3):381-386

Comet Hale-Bopp was observed with the 2.6-m and 1.25-m telescopes of the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory on March 9 and 11, 1997. We determined the linear and circular polarization in the coma. For the dust coma, the linear polarization varied from 7.8% to 12.4%. The degree of circular polarization was always negative and did not exceed 0.3% with an accuracy of ±0.04% on average. The passage of a bright star through the cometary coma was monitored with polarimetry and photometry. The wavelength dependence and spatial variations of optical thickness of dust are obtained from the stellar occultation. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献   

用Monte Carlo方法模拟砂土的自然堆积过程     

刘军  刘汉龙 《岩土力学》2005,26(Z1):113-117

用MonteCarlo随机模拟方法模拟砂土颗粒在重力作用下,在圆柱与长方体容器中的自然堆积过程。首先用参考网格法生成一个砂土颗粒的松散结构,松散结构中粒子与粒子、粒子与边界间不存在任何接触;然后启动MonteCarlo随机模拟算法,即给处于松散结构中的每个粒子施加随机位移,得到新构形,如果新构形中粒子间或粒子与边界间发生重叠,则放弃这个构形;如果没有重叠存在,则判别粒子体系的势能变化,运用Metropolis准则来判别这个构形是否被接受,重复这个过程可以得到砂土的密集堆积结构。采用Schinner建议的接触发现算法判别粒子间是否存在重叠,同时详细介绍了粒子与边界间的接触发现算法。模拟结果表明,用MonteCarlo方法模拟砂土的自然堆积结构是非常有效的,可以为砂土的流动、压实等的数值模拟工作提供初始构形。  相似文献   

Chemical textures on quartz grains: An experimental approach using salts     

A. W. Magee  P. A. Bull  A. S. Goudie 《地球表面变化过程与地形》1988,13(8):665-676

Two groups of fresh crushed Brazilian quartz grains (0.4–0.6 mm) were placed in 10 ml of various saturated salt solutions (sodium sulphate, sodium chloride, magnesium sulphate, sodium carbonate, and sodium carbonate and soil). One group was placed in an environmental cabinet programmed to simulate summer diurnal temperature and relative humidity values recorded in Wheeler Valley, a dry valley in southern Victoria Land, Antarctica. The other group was allowed to remain at normal laboratory conditions. Quartz grains from both groups were removed at pre-selected intervals for examination using the scanning electron microscope. After 50 hours chemical surface textures were formed on the quartz grains in all but the sodium sulphate solution. At the 140 hour interval all the salt solutions used were producing chemical surface textures on the quartz grains. This paper demonstrates that chemical surface textures can be produced on quartz grain surfaces by saturated salt solutions in a short period of time and may prove to be representative of chemical surface textures produced in a saturated saline environment.  相似文献   

Variable190Os/184Os ratio in acid residues of iron meteorites     

P. S. Goel 《Journal of Earth System Science》1987,96(2):81-102

In residual materials obtained on dissolution of iron meteorites in 2M H₂SO₄, the ratio of¹⁹⁰Os/¹⁸⁴Os has been measured by radiochemical neutron activation analysis. Most residues have a normal isotopic ratio (to within ±2%). However, in some residues both positive and negative deviations in the isotopic ratio are seen. The most spectacular deviations are in the insoluble fragments (nuggets) from Sikhote Alin iron meteorite where the¹⁹⁰Os/¹⁸⁴Os ratio is about 50% of the normal value. The new results confirm our earlier observations that iron meteorites contain pre-solar grains.  相似文献   

Simulation on sand grain/bed collision mechanism: Cascade collision and ejection (1)     

Wanquan Ta  Zhibao Dong 《Geomorphology》2007,89(3-4):348-357

Ejection of sand grains from a sand surface is assumed to result from cascade collision caused by the impact of a saltating particle. Allowing for only two-body cascade collision and introducing new quantities such as the cross-section for sand grain–grain collisions and sand surface binding energy, the theoretical model for the cascade collision of ion particles is applied to simulate sand grain/bed collision processes. The results of simulations indicate that the collision cascade events caused by impacting particles can eventually lead to the ejection of grains taking place from the sand surface. The number of ejected grains at any surface point is found to be proportional to the fractional energy deposited at that point and inversely proportional to the sand surface binding energy. This cascade collision model also confirms that the peak in the spatial distribution of ejected grains does not appear at the impact point but is located downwind, and that the speed distribution of ejected grains at a fixed angle exhibits a peak having a value directly related to the ratio of surface binding energy to the mass of the ejected grain. The angular distribution at a certain ejection speed also exhibits a maximum at an ejection angle near 90°. The model also offers a new interpretation for the observed variability in the number of ejected grains under constant impact velocity; this variability is directly related to the wide distribution of the energy deposition in the surface layer of the sand bed.  相似文献   

ESR dating of sedimentary quartz: Possibilities and limitations of the single-grain approach     

Koen Beerten  Andre Stesmans 《Quaternary Geochronology》2007,2(1-4):373-380

Usually, multiple-grain aliquots are used for electron spin resonance (ESR) dating of sediments. However, this approach excludes the ability of detecting insufficient bleaching, as would be the case when measuring several single aliquots or single grains. In this paper, we present preliminary results of single-grain ESR dating experiments on three different sedimentary deposits (fluvial, fluvio-aeolian and desert aeolian), ranging in age between 100 ka and 2 Ma. Titanium-related impurity centres (Ti–Li and Ti–H) were measured in a Q-band ESR spectrometer for estimating equivalent doses (D_e) of individual quartz grains (0.5–1 mm). Both additive and regenerative dose methods were used. The resulting D_e plots show a large scatter in D_e—from 100 Gy to more than 600 Gy—for the fluvial sample, probably reflecting different bleaching histories of the grains. On the contrary, a clear plateau can be observed in D_e for sands with a strong aeolian component. Preliminary single-grain ESR ages are in relatively good agreement with independent estimates, the best results being obtained for the desert aeolian sample (200 ka). It is concluded that ESR has a promising potential for estimating large naturally accumulated doses of well-bleached sediments. Nevertheless, the method is challenged by several experimental difficulties, such as long measurement times, excessive errors, and presumably a complex interrelationship between Ti–Li and Ti–H components.  相似文献   

Testing the applicability of standardised growth curves (SGCs) for OSL signals of quartz grains from the Yangtze Delta,China     

《Quaternary Geochronology》2022

The standardised growth curve (SGC) technique has the potential to save instrument time for equivalent dose (D_e) determination when applying single-aliquot regenerative-dose (SAR) protocol during optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) measurements. In this study, we test the applicability of two commonly used SGC procedures for OSL signals of quartz grains from aqueous deposits of the Yangtze Delta in China, which have been reported for weak luminescence signals and suffering from partial bleaching. Multiple silt-sized and sand-sized fractions of quartz samples from eight cores are used to construct SGCs by test dose standardisation (TD-SGC) and least-squares normalisation (LS-SGC), respectively. Three strategies, i.e. region-specific (SGC_R), region with core-specific (SGC_R + C) and core-specific (SGC_C), are adopted to categorise these normalised data into different SGC datasets. The large variability of dose response signals is substantially reduced by the SGC procedures for most of these datasets. Hence, common SGCs for a variety of samples from the Yangtze Delta can be established, irrespective of their distinctive particle sizes and luminescence characteristics. The D_e values are then estimated using both TD-SGC and LS-SGC procedures for samples from a specific core. Comparing to the full SAR protocol, the TD-SGC procedure roughly gives reproducible D_e estimates lower than ∼100 Gy while the LS-SGC procedure derives generally consistent D_e estimates of up to ∼230 Gy. Although LS-SGC_C and LS-SGC_R + C procedures replicate the most consistent D_e values, the LS-SGC_R procedure performs better in efficiency with a slightly less accuracy. In addition to careful comparison of LS-SGC and full SAR procedures, we suggest that a synchronous ratio derived by the chosen regenerative dose and its response signal for re-normalisation can be used to predict the LS-SGC D_e reliability on samples from similar sedimentary environments.  相似文献
