The experimental study of parameters of rocks under ultrahigh-pressure state     

Changtai Liu  Naiguang Geng 《地震学报(英文版)》1992,5(1):161-168

The parameters of rocks in ultrahigh-presure state are very important to understanding the geodynamics and explosion engineering of rocks. In these experiments the plane wave dynamite lenses were used to drive the flying plates. The flying plate hits the target and produces the ultrahigh-pressure shock wave. The propagation velocity and the particle velocity of shock wave in rock samples were measured by probes, and the relation between density of rocks and pressure was obtained by Rankine-Hugoniot formulas. The maximum pressure in experiments was higher than 70 GPa. The ultrahigh-pressure state formulas obtained are: Limestoneρ=3.22+0.016p; Graniteρ=3.20+0.024p. In which the unit for ρ is g/cm³, the unit forp is GPa. The Chinese version of this paper appeared in the Chinese edition ofActa Seismologica Sinica,13, 96–103, 1991.  相似文献   

Vertical S waves in soil stratum over halfspace     

S. Erlingsson  A. Bodare 《Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering》1992,11(7)

An analytical model of a soil layer resting on a halfspace with vertically propagating shear waves is studied under a harmonic excitation on the surface. The soil is treated as a Kelvin-Voigt continuum, using the one-dimensional wave equation. The material parameters can be strain dependent. A hyperbolic model proposed by Hardin & Drnevich is used for describing the nonlinear stress-strain relationship. Based on this, a solution to a problem where thirty thousand people were jumping to the rhythm of rock music on the field in a stadium is given. The soil stratum is a 5–60m thick uniform soft high-plastic clay. The particle velocity was estimated to range from 22·5 mm/s to 45 mm/s in the first overtone. These velocity values exceeded the critical value, of 20 mm/s, of the German building code DIN 4150 which may explain the occurence of damages.  相似文献   

Analysis of Rayleigh waves in saturated porous elastic media by finite element method     

H. Hirai 《Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering》1992,11(6)

A numerical procedure for the analysis of Rayleigh waves in saturated porous elastic media is proposed by use of the finite element method. The layer stiffness matrix, the layer mass matrix and the layer damping matrix in a layered system are presented for the discretized form of the solid-fluid equilibrium equation proposed by Biot. In order to consider the influence of the permeability coefficient on the behavior of Rayleigh waves, attention is focused on the following states: ‘drained’ state, ‘undrained’ state and the states between two extremes of ‘drained’ and ‘undrained’ states. It is found from computed results that the permeability coefficient exerts a significant effect on dispersion curves and displacement distributions of Rayleigh waves in saturated porous media.  相似文献

对磁层-电离层电动耦合和电离层发电机两种效应进行了模式计算,并对所得的一些耦合现象作了综合讨论.结果表明,在中低纬和赤道区的电离层和地磁研究中必须考虑磁层-电离层耦合效应向中低纬区的穿透和屏蔽;潮汐发电机效应对极光区（电导率增高时）的作用也值得重视.这两效应的特征和相对重要性随磁暴的发展阶段而异,在高低纬区也各不相同,但都有明显的晨昏不对称性.此外,弱磁扰对中低纬电离层形态的影响也不容忽视.  相似文献   

The evolution of tidal creek networks,mary river,northern Australia     

A. David Knighton  Colin D. Woodroffe  Kevin Mills 《地球表面变化过程与地形》1992,17(2):167-190

Tidal creek networks have in 50 years extended over 30 km inland across the coastal plains of the Mary River in northern Australia, invading freshwater wetlands and destroying the associated vegetation. The networks have grown at an exponential rate through a combination of main channel extension and tributary development, with concomitant widening of the creeks. A large tidal range, very small elevational differences over the plains, and the availability of preexisting channel lines (notably in the form of palaeochannels) have been major factors contributing to the rapid rate of expansion. Close parallels exist between these networks and terrestrial networks as regards modes of growth and planimetric properties. A channel is initiated when the diffuse flow of a seepage zone becomes concentrated through localized scour. Subsequent development is characterized by the rapid extension of long first-order channels, with most tributary addition occurring later. Model tests suggest that branching was more likely on exterior links in the early stages but that exterior and interior link branching became more equally likely through time. Although the headward limits of the main creeks seem to have been reached, tributary infilling will continue to progress upstream. Only in the most downstream parts is a stable drainage density being approached. The networks not only satisfy the laws of drainage network composition and the basic postulates of the random model but also depart from topologic randomness in similar ways to terrestrial networks. Both topologic and length properties have changed during evolution but largely at the link rather than network scale. The close correspondence with terrestrial networks may be due to the low relief and the relatively unconstrained nature of growth in which availability of space was the main determining factor.  相似文献   

Effect of anelastic and scattering structures of the lithosphere on the shape of local earthquake coda     

Bernard Chouet 《Pure and Applied Geophysics》1990,132(1-2):289-310

A simple model of single acoustic scattering is used to study the dependence of the shape of local earthquake coda on the anelastic and scattering structures of the lithosphere. The model is applied to the coda of earthquakes located near Stone Canyon, central California, and provides an explanation for the features observed in the data, which include an interesting temporal variation in the coda shape. A surficial layer with aQ of 50 and thickness of 10 or 25 km underlain by a zone with aQ of 1000 extending to the bottom of the lithosphere, together with a scattering scale length,a, that varies with depthz according to the relationa=0.3 exp[-(z/45)²] are found to constitute the simplest structure of the medium compatible with the coda data and with body and surface wave attenuation data. The profile of heterogeneity sizes implies that the scattering strength increases strongly with depth, a constraint required by the necessity to boost the energy of the later coda without forcing the intrinsicQ to be excessively high in the uppermost mantle. This constraint is viewed as an artifact of the single scattering model which overstimates the scattering coefficient due to the neglect of multiple scattering. The observed temporal variation of the signal is difficult to explain by a simple change of the intrinsicQ at some depth. Rather, it is suggested that the scattering properties at depth changed with time through a variation of the fractional rms velocity fluctuation on the order of one percent.  相似文献   

Propagation and attenuation characteristics of the crustal phaseLg     

Michel Campillo 《Pure and Applied Geophysics》1990,132(1-2):1-19

TheLg wave consists of the superposition ofS waves supercritically reflected, and thus trapped, in the crust. This mode of propagation explains the strong amplitude of this phase and the large distance range in which it is observed. The numerical simulation leads to successful comparison between observed seismograms in stable continental areas and synthetics computed for simple standard crustal models. In regions with strong lateral variations, the influence of large-scale heterogeneities on theLg amplitude is not yet clearly established in terms of the geometrical characteristics of the crustal structure.The analysis of the decay of amplitude ofLg with epicentral distance allows the evaluation of the quality factor ofS waves in the crust. The results obtained show the same trends as codaQ: a clear correlation with the tectonic activity of the region considered, both for the value ofQ at 1 Hz and for its frequency dependence, suggesting that scattering plays a prominent part among the processes that cause the attenuation.The coda ofLg is made up of scatteredS waves. The study of the spatial attenuation of the coda indicated that a large part of the arrivals that compose the coda propagate asLg. The relative amplitude of the coda is larger at sites located on sediments because, in these conditions, a part ofLg energy can be converted locally into lower order surface modes.  相似文献

为研究风浪作用下水生植物对水流结构的影响，选取太湖中两种典型沉水植物（苦草与马来眼子菜）为研究对象，分别对苦草植物斑块与马来眼子菜植物斑块内外水体的瞬时流速进行野外现场测量，利用瞬时流速的能量谱分布将波浪流速与紊动流速分离，分别分析水生植物对时均流速、波浪流速以及紊动能的影响。风浪影响下，水体中存在流向与测量时近水面处盛行风向一致的水流；波浪流速以垂向流速为主，且波浪流速自水面向床底逐渐减小；紊动能在水面处达到最大值，并向床底方向逐渐减小。与无植被条件相比，苦草与马来眼子菜的存在减小了时均流速、波浪流速以及紊动能。两种植物形态上的差异，导致其对水流结构的影响不同：苦草叶片阻流面积在冠层中部达到最大，使得时均流速与波浪流速在苦草中部位置的减小程度最大；马来眼子菜叶片主要集中于冠层顶部（水面附近），其对时均流速以及波浪流速的减小作用在水面处达到最大。  相似文献   

Active and laboratory experiments in space plasma physics     

Walter Gekelman 《Surveys in Geophysics》1995,16(3):457-485

This report focuses on active experiments in space as well as laboratory experiments which are directly related to space phenomena. The active experiments involve particle releases in the CRESS and AMPTE missions. Unexpected results such as the motion of the plasma triggered several interesting computer simulations and a laboratory experiment which will be reviewed. Critical Ionization Phenomena will be discussed in this context. A recent release over Arecibo was used to create a plasma lens to focus radiation from the HF heater beam. The higher power triggered several nonlinear processes. Advances in plasma sources and diagnostics have made it possible to scale many laboratory experiments. Discussed here are experiments on Alfvén waves generated by a localized source, 3D magnetic field line reconnection, three dimensional magnetized double layers and simulations of a tethered satellite.  相似文献
