Abstract Kaidun is a breccia of disparate enstatite and carbonaceous chondrite clasts that continues to provide real surprises. Many Kaidun clasts have been intensely altered by aqueous fluids, as evidenced by the widespread occurrence of ferromagnesian phyllosilicates and by the presence of carbonate- and phyllo-silicate-filled veins. In this report, we describe an unusual CM lithology containing many mineralogical features not previously reported from any meteorite, including pyrrhotite, with exclusive needlelike morphologies and thick mantles of phyllosilicate, and complex aggregates of phyllosilicate, melanite garnet, crosscut by pentlandite veins. The latter features appear to be due in large part to extensive hydrothermal alteration at temperatures on the order of 450 °C, which is significantly higher than that attained during secondary processing from other known CM material.  相似文献   

Observation of the flare of 12 June 1982 by Norikura coronagraph and Hinotori     

E. Hiei  T. Okamoto  K. Tanaka 《Solar physics》1983,86(1-2):185-191

Flare activity was observed near the limb with two coronagraphs at the Norikura Solar Observatory and the Soft X-ray Crystal Spectrometer (SOX) aboard HINOTORI. A prominence activation occurred and then Hα brightenings were seen on the disk near the prominence. The prominence became very bright and its electron density increased to 10^12.8 cm^?3 in 1/2 hour. Loop prominence systems appeared above the Hα brightenings about half an hour after the onset of the flare, and were observed in the coronal lines CaXV 5694Å, FeXIV 5303Å, and FeX 6374Å. Shifted and asymmetric profiles of the emission line of 5303Å were sometimes observed, and turbulent phenomena occurred even in the thermal phase. The energy release site of the flare at the onset would be lower than 20 000 km above the solar limb.  相似文献   

Magnitude of σ₁, σ₂, and σ₃ at mid-crustal levels in an orogenic belt: Microboudin method applied to an impure metachert from Turkey     

Toshiaki Masuda  Shotaro Nakayama  Nozomi Kimura  Atsushi Okamoto   《Tectonophysics》2008,460(1-4):230-236

We revised an equation for estimating palaeostress magnitude using the microboudin technique by incorporating the influence of time on the fracture strength of minerals. The equation was used to estimate triaxial palaeostresses from a rare sample of metachert from Turkey that contains microboudinaged, columnar tourmaline grains in a wide range of orientations within the foliation plane. The estimated principal palaeostresses are σ₁ = 605 MPa, σ₂ = 598 MPa, and σ₃ = 597 MPa. As the microboudinage is considered to have occurred immediately before the rock encountered the brittle-plastic transition during exhumation, these stress values correspond to conditions at approximately 18 km depth and 300 °C within a Cretaceous orogenic belt.  相似文献   

Mechanism of the seasonal transport variation through the Tokara Strait     

M. Kubota  H. Yokota  T. Okamoto 《Journal of Oceanography》1995,51(4):441-458

To investigate an mechanism of the seasonal variation of transport through the Tokara Strait, two numerical experiments with real geometry and wind forcing were carried out. The models are linear barotropic models which are a North Pacific Ocean model and a limited-area model with a fine grid. The seasonal variation of volume transport with a maximum in the summer and a minimum in the autumn could be well reproduced by both models. The results demonstrate the wind stress component normal to a gradient vector of bottom topography is crucial for determining the seasonal variation. The similar seasonal variation widely covers the East China Sea and has a large amplitude near the Tokara Strait. Finally, it can be concluded that winds north of 35°N have little influence on the seasonal response of our model at the Tokara Strait.  相似文献   

Recent developments in seismically isolated buildings in Japan     

Shin Okamoto  Nagahide Kani  Masahiko Higashino  Norihide Koshika  Masayuki Kimizuka  Mitsumasa Midorikawa  Masanori Iiba 《地震工程与工程振动(英文版)》2002,1(2):213-225

The Building Standard Law of Japan and related Enforcement Order and Notifications have been substantially revised since the year 2000 to introduce a performance-based regulatory and deregulation system for building control systems. Up to then, time-history analyses were mandatory for isolated buildings and had to be specially approved by the Minster of the Ministry of Construction (MOC). Simplified design procedures based on the equivalent linear method for seismically isolated buildings have been issued as “Notification 2009 — Structural calculation procedure for buildings with seismic isolation” from MOC, and are now integrated into the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transportation (MLIT). Along with Notification 2009, “Notification 1446 of year 2000 — Standard for specifications and test methods for seismic isolation devices” was also issued. Buildings with heights equal to or less than 60m and that are designed according to these Notifications, including base isolated buildings, only need approval from local building officials, and no longer require the special approval of the Minister of MLIT. This paper summarizes: 1) some statistics related to buildings with seismic isolation completed up to the end of 2001; 2) simplified design procedures required by Notification 2009 of year 2000; and 3) performance of seismic isolation devices required by Notification 1446 of year 2000.  相似文献   

Triaxial stress state deep in orogenic belts: an example from Turkey     

T. Masuda  S. Nakayama  N. Kimura  K. Onodera  A. Okamoto 《Journal of Structural Geology》2004,26(12):2203-2209

A rare metachert pebble containing amphibole grains with microboudin structures in a wide range of orientations provides an opportunity to perform stress analysis in two orthogonal orientations on the foliation surface. The sample was analysed by the microboudin method to infer the triaxial stress state during microboudinage. Stress parameters proportional to the far-field differential stress were determined for sodic amphibole grains in the two orientations. The ratio of the stresses in the two orthogonal orientations (σ₁−σ₂)/(σ₁−σ₃) was calculated to be 0.64, indicating that σ₂ lies closer to the midpoint between σ₁ and σ₃ than to σ₃.  相似文献

Multiple stages of phengite formation in Sanbagawa schists     

M. Radvanec  S. Banno  K. Okamoto 《Mineralogy and Petrology》1994,51(1):37-48

Summary Basic and pelitic schists of the garnet and biotite zones in the Sanbagawa belt in Shikoku, Japan, commonly contain phengite developed at different stages of metamorphism. Textures of the phengite and associated minerals show that Al-rich phengite is a prograde product and Al-poor phengite is a retrograde product.

Mehrfache Stadien der Phengit-Bildung in den Sanbagawa-Schiefern

Zusammenfassung Basische und pelitische Schiefer der Granat- und Biotitzonen im Sanbagawa Gürtel in Shikoku, Japan, führen Phengite, die während verschiedener Stadien der Metamorphose entstanden sind. Texturen der Phengite und assoziierter Minerale zeigen, daß Al-reicher Phengit das Produkt prograder Metamorphose ist, während Al-armer Phengit auf retrograde Metamorphose zurückgeht.

Behaviour of subaqueous tunnels during earthquakes     

Shunzo Okamoto  Choshiro Tamura 《地震工程与结构动力学》1972,1(3):253-266

Three-dimensional models of a subaqueous tunnel were built on a shaking table and vibrated for the purpose of investigating the dynamic behaviour of the tunnel. The material of the soft surface layer was gelatin gel and that of the tunnel was silicon rubber. In addition, earthquake observations at the site of the real subaqueous tunnel have been carried out using accelerometers and strain gauges set on the walls of the tunnel. At the site, micro-tremors were also measured. In these studies, it was noted that non-uniform displacements of the ground along the tunnel axis were caused by variations of the dynamic behaviour of the ground, and that the tunnel deforms correspondingly to the varying deformations of the ground. From these experimental results, a mathematical model of the subaqueous tunnel was formulated for anti-seismic design studies.  相似文献
