An exact closed form solution is derived for the mechanical behaviour of a linear viscoelastic Burgers rock around an axisymmetric tunnel, supported by a linear elastic ring. Analytical formulae are provided for the displacement of the rock/lining interface and for the pressure exerted by the rock on the lining, taking into account the stiffness and its installation time. Results calculated from these formulae do validate the corresponding numerical results of a 2D finite differences code. Further, comparison to previous existing solutions for the same viscoelastic model indicates similarities and differences. A parametric study is performed to investigate the effect of the viscoelastic constants, the stiffness and installation time of the support. The derived closed form solution is used to construct the time-dependent Supported Ground Reaction Curves of the viscoelastic rock, i.e. the time contour plots on the convergence confinement diagram. The importance of the effect of the support on the restrained rock creep and the exerted pressure on the lining, during the design life of a structure, is examined. 相似文献

Sensitivity analysis should be employed to examine the effect of the variability of selected parameters on critical response of a construction, using credible upper and lower bounds. This investigation performs such an analysis for an actual tunnel design case by means of numerical modeling. A local method, which is a partial derivative of the output with respect to several input factors, is used so as to ensure ease of use for the designer. In this way, the effect of varying geotechnical parameters over their possible values with respect to internal forces and displacements of the tunnel temporary lining is evaluated. The analysis includes not only assessment of the greatest influence on the item under observation by use of new types of diagrams that provide better comprehension but also a first order reliability evaluation on the effect of input parameters with respect to the reinforcement requirements of the temporary lining. 相似文献

Twenty-four years of AVHRR-derived sea surface temperature (SST) data (1985–2008) and 35 years of NOCS (V.2) in situ-based
SST data (1973–2008) were used to investigate the decadal scale variability of this parameter in the Mediterranean Sea in
relation to local air–sea interaction and large-scale atmospheric variability. Satellite and in situ-derived data indicate
a strong eastward increasing sea surface warming trend from the early 1990s onwards. The satellite-derived mean annual warming
rate is about 0.037°C year–1 for the whole basin, about 0.026°C year–1 for the western sub-basin and about 0.042°C year–1 for the eastern sub-basin over 1985–2008. NOCS-derived data indicate similar variability but with lower warming trends for
both sub-basins over the same period. The long-term Mediterranean SST spatiotemporal variability is mainly associated with
horizontal heat advection variations and an increasing warming of the Atlantic inflow. Analysis of SST and net heat flux inter-annual
variations indicates a negative correlation, with the long-term SST increase, driving a net air–sea heat flux decrease in
the Mediterranean Sea through a large increase in the latent heat loss. Empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis of the
monthly average anomaly satellite-derived time series showed that the first EOF mode is associated with a long-term warming
trend throughout the whole Mediterranean surface and it is highly correlated with both the Eastern Atlantic (EA) pattern and
the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO) index. On the other hand, SST basin-average yearly anomaly and NAO variations
show low and not statistically significant correlations of opposite sign for the eastern (negative correlation) and western
(positive correlation) sub-basins. However, there seems to be a link between NAO and SST decadal-scale variations that is
particularly evidenced in the second EOF mode of SST anomalies. NOCS SST time series show a significant SST rise in the western
basin from 1973 to the late 1980s following a large warming of the inflowing surface Atlantic waters and a long-term increase
of the NAO index, whereas SST slowly increased in the eastern basin. In the early 1990s, there is an abrupt change from a
very high positive to a low NAO phase which coincides with a large change in the SST spatiotemporal variability pattern. This
pronounced variability shift is followed by an acceleration of the warming rate in the Mediterranean Sea and a change in the
direction (from westward to eastward) of its spatial increasing tendency. 相似文献

Eight years of AVHRR-derived sea surface temperature (SST) and SeaWiFS-derived surface chlorophyll (Chl) data (1998–2005) are used to investigate key processes affecting the spatial and temporal variability of the two parameters in the Aegean Sea. Seasonal mean SST and Chl maps are constructed using daily data to study seasonal dynamics whereas empirical orthogonal function (EOF) and correlational analysis is applied to the 8-day composite SST and Chl anomaly time-series in order to study the variability and co-variability of the two parameters from subseasonal to interannual time-scales. The seasonal mean fields show that Black Sea cold and chlorophyll-rich waters enter through the Dardanelles Strait and they are accumulated in the north-eastern part of the Aegean Sea, steered by the Samothraki anticyclone. Large chlorophyll concentrations are encountered in the hydrological front off the Dardanelles Strait as well as in coastal areas affected by large riverine/anthropogenic nutrient loads. The SST seasonal mean patterns reveal strong cooling that is associated with upwelling along the eastern boundary of the basin during summer due to strong northerly winds, a process which is not present in the surface chlorophyll climatology. The Chl dataset presents much stronger sub-seasonal variability than SST, with large variations in the phase and strength of the phytoplankton seasonal cycles. EOF analysis of the anomaly time-series shows that SST non-seasonal variability is controlled by synoptic weather variations and anomalies in the north–south wind-stress component regulating the summer coastal upwelling regime. Mean SST and Chl patterns, and their associated variations, are not closely linked implying that Black Sea and riverine inputs mainly control the intra-annual and interannual variability of the surface chlorophyll in the Aegean Sea rather than mixing and/or upwelling processes. 相似文献

The impact of the Black Sea Water (BSW) inflow on the circulation and the water mass characteristics of the North Aegean Sea
is investigated using a high-resolution 3D numerical model. Four climatological numerical experiments are performed exploring
the effects of the exchange amplitude at the Dardanelles Straits in terms of the mean annual volume exchanged and the amplitude
of its seasonal cycle. Larger inflow of low salinity BSW influences the water characteristics of the whole basin. The largest
salinity reduction is encountered in the upper layers of the water column, and the most affected region is the northeastern
part of the basin. The winter insulation character of the BSW layer (low-salinity layer) is reduced by the seasonal cycle
of the inflow (minimum during winter). The maximum atmospheric cooling coincides with the minimum BSW inflow rate, weakening
the vertical density gradients close to the surface and thus facilitating the vertical mixing. The inflow rate of BSW into
the North Aegean Sea constitutes an essential factor for the circulation in the basin. Increased inflow rate results into
considerably higher kinetic energy, stronger circulation and reinforcement of the mesoscale circulation features. Although
the position of the front between BSW and waters of Levantine origin does not vary significantly with the intensity of the
BSW inflow rate, the flow along the front becomes stronger and more unstable as the inflow rate increases, forming meanders
and rings. The changes in the intensity of BSW inflow rate overpower the wind and thermohaline forcing and largely determine
the general circulation of the North Aegean Sea. 相似文献

The subject of this work is the development of a code to study the behaviour of stratified and jointed rock masses around underground excavations. The rock mass is divided into two types of regions, one which is supposed to exhibit linear elastic behaviour and which may extend to infinity, and the other which will include discontinuities that behave inelastically. The former has been simulated by a symmetric direct, boundary integral, plane strain, quadratic, orthotropic module, and the latter by quadratic plane strain, membrane and inelastic joint elements. The two modules are coupled in one program. Sequences of loading include static point, pressure, body and residual loads, construction and excavation sequences, and quasi-static earthquake load. The programe is interactive, with graphics. A numerical example is presented to illustrate the method. 相似文献

Some basic factors which influence the behaviour of the anchored retaining structures are investigated and 2D analyses with three dimensional ones are compared. The parametric analysis under 2D conditions focuses on the influence of significant factors such as the normalized embedded depth of the wall, the resistance of the anchors, the free tendon length, the earth pressure coefficient at rest and the flexibility of the system, on the behaviour of the retaining structure. The analyses are performed in two groups for two representative soil types named S1 (weathered weak rock) and S2 (very stiff clay). Qualitative as well as quantitative conclusions are derived from the analyses concerning the influence of the above mentioned factors, mainly on the safety factor as well as on the displacements. The 3D analyses are carried out for various ratios L/H, where L is the length and H the height of the slope. Several trends are confirmed from the results concerning the influence of the above-mentioned factors. It is concluded that the triaxal conditions strongly affect the safety factor, as well as the distribution of horizontal and vertical displacements, mainly in the cases where the ratios L/H ≤ 2. Some serious deviations between 2D and 3D analyses are pointed out and the physical explanation of these differences is given for several cases. 相似文献
