Towards an understanding of joint roughness   总被引：14，自引：4，他引：10  

J. P. Seidel  C. M. Haberfield 《Rock Mechanics and Rock Engineering》1995,28(2):69-92

Summary It is argued that the currently available joint models are incapable of accurate predictions of joint shear behaviour without resorting to substantial levels of empiricism. This is because these models fail to adequately quantify joint roughness, or appreciate the importance of scale. A novel approach, which uses fractal geometry to investigate joint roughness, is described. This approach goes beyond describing the symptoms of roughness and seeks to find the cause. In the application of this approach, the concepts of fractal geometry, fractal dimension and self similarity are described and used as a framework to formulate a statistically based and practical model for the characterisation of rock joint roughness. Important relationships between the fractal dimension and the more useful statistical parameters of standard deviation of both asperity angles and asperity heights are derived. These relationships not only provide a useful, working method for quantifying joint roughness, but are also shown to provide a basis for understanding the Barton empirical JRC-JCS model. In addition, the fractal model is able to provide conceptual models for the effects of normal stress on the shear behaviour of joints and the scale-dependence of joints.  相似文献   

Enhancement of radon signals in geophysical studies with the track technique     

A. Tidjani  M. Monnin  J -L. Seidel 《Pure and Applied Geophysics》1990,132(3):495-504

The existence of a suspected geological fault has been confirmed using Solid State Nuclear Track Detectors (SSNTDs) by measuring radon concentration variations in the upper soil above its inferred position. The results obtained prompted us to increase the natural radon signal in the soil, using an additional radon source; this enhancement technique, has been experimentally checked with SSNTD detectors.On leave from Faculté des Sciences, Laboratoire des D.S.T.N.

The atmosphere of Io from Pioneer 10 radio occultation measurements     

A.J. Kliore  G. Fjeldbo  B.L. Seidel  D.N. Sweetnam  T.T. Sesplaukis  P.M. Woiceshyn  S.I. Rasool 《Icarus》1975,24(4):407-410

The occultation of the Pioneer 10 spacecraft by Io (JI) provided an opportunity to obtain two S-band radio occultation measurements of its atmosphere. The dayside entry measurements revealed an ionosphere having a peak density of about 6 × 10⁴ elcm^?3 at an altitude of about 100 km. The topside scale height indicates a plasma temperature of about 406 K if it is composed of Na⁺ and 495 K if N₂⁺ is principal ion. A thinner and less dense ionosphere was observed on the exit (night side), having a peak density of 9 × 10³ elcm^?3 at an altitude of 50 km. The topside plasma temperature is 160 K for N₂^? and 131 K for Na⁺. If the ionosphere is produced by photoionization in a manner analogous to the ionospheres of the terrestrial planets, the density of neutral particles at the surface of Io is less than 10¹¹?10¹² cm³, corresponding to a surface pressure of less than 10^?8 to 10^?9 bars. Two measurements of its radius were also obtained yielding a value of 1830 km for the entry and 192 km for the exit. The discrepancy between these values may indicate an ephemeris uncertainty of about 45 km. The two measurements yield an average radius of 1875 km, which is not in agreement with the results of the Beta Scorpii stellar occultation.  相似文献   

Ductile deformation of garnet in mylonitic gneisses from the Münchberg Massif (Germany)   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Axel Vollbrecht  Jan Pawlowski  Bernd Leiss  Till Heinrichs  Madlen Seidel  Andreas Kronz 《Tectonophysics》2006,427(1-4):153

Mylonitic gneisses from the Münchberg Massif contain single grains (type I) and polycrystalline aggregates (type II) of garnet displaying a distinct elongation parallel to a macroscopic lineation which is interpreted as the result of ductile deformation. Lattice-preferred orientations of quartz (textures) symmetrical to the macroscopic foliation and lineation and the lack of rotational microfabrics indicate that the bulk deformation was pure shear at least during the latest strain increments. Garnet textures measured by EBSD together with microprobe analyses demonstrate that these two structural types of garnet can be related to two different processes of ductile deformation: (1) For the single grains stretching can be attributed to diffusion creep along grain boundary zones (Coble creep). The related mass transfer is indicated by the fact that primary growth zones are cut off at the long faces of the grains while the related strain shadow domains do not show comparable chemical zoning. Pressure solution and precipitation suitable to produce similar structures can be largely ruled out because retrogressive reactions pointing to the presence of free hydrous fluids are missing. (2) For the polycrystalline garnet aggregates consisting of cores grading into fine-grained mantles, dislocation creep and associated rotation recrystallization can be assumed. Continuous lattice rotation from the core to the outer polycrystalline rim allow a determination of the related dominant slip systems which are {100}<010> and equivalent systems according to the cubic lattice symmetry. The same holds for garnets which appear to be completely recrystallized. For this type of fine-grained aggregates an alternative nucleation model is discussed. Due to penetrative dislocation glide in connection with short range diffusion and the resulting lattice rotation, primary growth zones are strongly disturbed.Since for the considered rock unit of the Münchberg Massif peak metamorphic temperatures between 630 and 670 °C can be assumed, this study clearly demonstrates that the inferred processes of ductile garnet deformation can occur not only in HT regimes as often suggested in the literature even if embedded within a matrix of “low-strength” minerals like quartz, feldspars and micas.  相似文献   

Rapid orbit determination of LEO satellites using IGS clock and ephemeris products   总被引：4，自引：2，他引：4  

Oliver Montenbruck  Eberhard Gill  Remco Kroes 《GPS Solutions》2005,9(3):226-235

Different types of GPS clock and orbit data provided by the International GPS Service (IGS) have been used to assess the accuracy of rapid orbit determination for satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO) using spaceborne GPS measurements. To avoid the need for reference measurements from ground-based reference receivers, the analysis is based on an undifferenced processing of GPS code and carrier-phase measurements. Special attention is therefore given to the quality of GPS clock data that directly affects the resulting orbit determination accuracy. Interpolation of clock data from the available 15 min grid points is identified as a limiting factor in the use of IGS ultra-rapid ephemerides. Despite this restriction, a 10-cm orbit determination accuracy can be obtained with these products data as demonstrated for the GRACE-B spacecraft during selected data arcs between 2002 and 2004. This performance may be compared with a 5-cm orbit determination accuracy achievable with IGS rapid and final products using 5 min clock samples. For improved accuracy, high-rate (30 s) clock solutions are recommended that are presently only available from individual IGS centers. Likewise, a reduced latency and more frequent updates of IGS ultra-rapid ephemerides are desirable to meet the requirements of upcoming satellite missions for near real-time and precise orbit determination.  相似文献

Metamorphic evolution and geochemistry of kyanite eclogites in central Rhodope,northern Greece   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

A. Liati  Eberhard Seidel 《Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology》1996,123(3):293-307

In central Rhodope of northern Greece, kyanite eclogites were discovered in the area of Thermes. They are strongly overprinted and exhibit a multi-stage development of minerals and mineral assemblages formed during successive stages of the exhumation. The initial high-pressure assemblage was garnet+omphacite+kyanite+zoisite+phengite+rutile+quartz. Corundum, Fe-Mg-spinel, sapphirine and högbomite occur as products of a first, high-temperature overprint, still at high pressures, whereas various symplectites [corundum-plagioclase (pl), spinel-pl, sapphirine-pl, clinopyroxene-pl, biotite-pl, amphibole-pl] grew during subsequent stages of the exhumation. Diablastic amphibole+plagioclase formed as end-products of the amphibolitization. According to geochemical data, the protoliths of the kyanite eclogites were basalts to basaltic andesites with “volcanic arc” affinities. For the high-pressure stage of metamorphism, minimum PT conditions were around 19 kbar, 700°C, while for the initial stages of the overprint, high-pressure granulite-facies conditions prevailed (T>800°C, at P>15 kbar). The PT conditions of the amphibolite facies were 8–11 kbar, 580–690°C. The kyanite eclogites of Thermes record the highest temperatures of metamorphism within the whole of Rhodope.  相似文献   

Radon in soil anomaly observed at Los Azufres geothermal field,Michoacan: a possible precursor of the 1985 Mexico earthquake (Ms = 8.1)     

N. Segovia  S. de la Cruz-Reyna  M. Mena  E. Ramos  M. Monnin  J. L. Seidel 《Natural Hazards》1989,1(4):319-329

A radon anomaly in a nuclear track detector placed on a fault was detected prior to the destructive (Ms = 8.1) Mexican earthquake of 19 September 1985. The fault is a structural feature of the geothermal field Los Azufres, 260 km NE of the epicentral area. Since no other phenomenon can be found as a possible cause for the radon anomaly, it is proposed that preseismic regional stress perturbations may produce changes in the fluid transport patterns at the fault, suggesting that radon measurements in similar conditions could provide a good precursor in high seismic risk areas.  相似文献   

Effect of pH on Adsorption Equilibria for Dissolved Weak Organic Electrolytes on Activated Carbon     

A. Seidel  K.-H. Radeke 《洁净——土壤、空气、水》1990,18(6):691-699

The influence of pH on the adsorption equilibria of a-picolin and phenol from aqueous solution on activated carbon is studied experimentally for the single solutes and their mixtures. For these weak bases and weak acids the effect of pH on adsorption capacity is contrary, thus allowing an efficient separation by adsorption. A model based on the concept of competitive adsorption of ionic and molecular forms of the organic electrolytes represents the experimental data qualitatively. Deviations between theoretical and experimental results are discussed on the basis of possible interactions of the organic solutes and the activated carbon with components of the buffer used in the experiments.  相似文献
