Seismic observations have shown structural variation near the base of the mantle transition zone(MTZ)where subducted cold slabs,as visualized with high seismic speed anomalies(HSSAs),flatten to form stagnant slabs or sink further into the lower mantle.The different slab behaviors were also accompanied by variation of the "660 km" discontinuity depths and low viscosity layers(LVLs) beneath the MTZ that are suggested by geoid inversion studies.We address that deep water transport by subducted slabs and dehydration from hydrous slabs could affect the physical properties of mantle minerals and govern slab dynamics.A systematic series of three-dimensional numerical simulation has been conducted to examine the effects of viscosity reduction or contrast between slab materials on slab behaviors near the base of the MTZ.We found that the viscosity reduction of subducted crustal material leads to a separation of crustal material from the slab main body and its transient stagnation in the MTZ.The once trapped crustal materials in the MTZ eventually sink into the lower mantle within 20-30 My from the start of the plate subduction.The results suggest crustal material recycle in the whole mantle that is consistent with evidence from mantle geochemistry as opposed to a two-layer mantle convection model.Because of the smaller capacity of water content in lower mantle minerals than in MTZ minerals,dehydration should occur at the phase transformation depth,~660 km.The variation of the discontinuity depths and highly localized low seismic speed anomaly(LSSA) zones observed from seismic P waveforms in a relatively high frequency band(~1 Hz) support the hypothesis of dehydration from hydrous slabs at the phase boundary.The LSSAs which correspond to dehydration induced fluids are likely to be very local,given very small hydrogen(H~+) diffusivity associated with subducted slabs.The image of such local LSSA zones embedded in HSSAs may not be necessarily captured in tomography studies.The high electrical conductivity in the MTZ beneath the northwestern Pacific subduction zone does not necessarily require a broad range of high water content homogeneously. 相似文献

In situ analysis of a garnet porphyroblast from a granulite facies gneiss from Sør Rondane Mountains, East Antarctica, reveals discontinuous step‐wise zoning in phosphorus and large δ18O variations from the phosphorus‐rich core to the phosphorus‐poor rim. The gradually decreasing profile of oxygen isotope from the core (δ18O = ~15‰) to the rim (δ18O = ~11‰) suggests that the 18O/16O zoning was originally step‐wise, and modified by diffusion after the garnet rim formation at ~800°C and 0.8 GPa. Fitting of the 18O/16O data to the diffusion equation constrains a duration of the high‐T event (~800°C) to c. 0.5–40 Ma after the garnet rim formation. The low δ18O value of the garnet rim, together with the previously reported low δ18O values in metacarbonates, indicates regional infiltration, probably along a detachment fault, of low δ18O fluid/melt possibly derived from meta‐mafic to ultramafic rocks. 相似文献

Five fresh, two weathered, and two metamorphosed basalt pillows with a presently or originally glassy outermost layer, together with a weathered and a metamorphosed basalt fragment without an originally glassy layer, all from the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, were investigated in detail. Fresh pillows usually show only very slight compositional heterogeneity, except for the glassy outermost layer where the total iron and MgO contents are higher and the K2O content and the ratio are lower than the interior. In particular, the K2O content of the glassy outermost layer is only about a half of that of the core in some pillows. In weathered pillows the surface layer shows higher total iron, TiO2, P2O5 and H2O contents and a higher ratio and a much lower CaO content than the interior. Most of the compositional heterogeneity observed in metamorphosed pillows may be ascribed to chemical migration during weathering, though metamorphism also may cause considerable heterogeneity. 相似文献

We have developed a two-dimensional dynamical model of asymmetric subduction integrated into the mantle convection without
imposed plate velocities. In this model we consider that weak oceanic crust behaves as a lubricator on the thrust fault at
the plate boundary. We introduce a rheological layer that depends on the history of the past fracture to simulate the effect
of the oceanic crust. The thickness of this layer is set to be as thin as the Earth's oceanic crust. To treat 1-kilometer
scale structure at the plate boundary in the 1000-kilometer scale mantle convection calculation, we introduce a new numerical
method to solve the hydrodynamic equations using a couple of uniform and nonuniform grids of control volumes. Using our developed
models, we have systematically investigated effects of basic rheological parameters that determine the deformation strength
of the lithosphere and the oceanic crust on the development of the subducted slab, with a focus on the plate motion controlling
mechanism. In our model the plate subduction is produced when the friction coefficient (0.004–0.008) of the modeled oceanic
crust and the maximum strength (400 MPa) of the lithosphere are in plausible range inferred from the observations on the plate
driving forces and the plate deformation, and the rheology experiments. In this range of the plate strength, yielding induces
the plate bending. In this case the speed of plate motion is controlled more by viscosity layering of the underlying mantle
than by the plate strength. To examine the setting of the overriding plate, we also consider the two end-member cases in which
the overriding plate is fixed or freely-movable. In the case of the freely-movable overriding plate, the trench motion considerably
changes the dip angle of the deep slab. Especially in the case with a shallow-angle plate boundary, retrograde slab motion
occurs to generate a shallow-angle deep slab. 相似文献

Serpentinites occur in transverse fracture zones and adjacent areas in the Mid-Atlantic Ridge near 24° and 30° N. In two fracture zones, about 700 km distant from each other, serpentinites show practically the same trend and range of variation in chemical composition. Their CaO content ranges from 2.05 to 0.07% by weight. Serpentinites relatively high in CaO content contain pargasite, whereas those relatively low in CaO do not. Serpentinites relatively high in CaO are chemically similar to high-temperature peridotites which are widely believed to have been derived from the upper mantle. With a decrease in CaO, the Al2O3, TiO2, K2O and FeO contents and the Fe/Mg ratio tend to decrease, whereas the H2O+ content tends to increase. This compositional variation is probably due partly to heterogeneity of uper mantle peridotite from which the serpentinites were derived, and partly to chemical migration during serpentinization. The interior of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge may be mainly made up of serpentinites. Alternatively, the Mid-Atlantic Ridge Serpentinites may have been formed by serpentinization of peridotites that were intruded into fracture zones from a great depth.Lamont-Doherty Geological Observatory Contribution No. 1354. 相似文献

On cursory examination of hand specimens and thin sections, the abyssal tholeiite in a dredge haul may appear to be uniform in composition. Chemical analyses of a considerable number of fragments, however, have always revealed the existence of regular compositional variation in them. The MgO content decreases with increasing SiO2. In abyssal tholeiites with relatively low Al2O3 contents, the SiO2, total iron, Na2O and P2O5 contents tend to increase and the MgO content tends to decrease with increasing iron/magnesia ratio, probably owing to crystallization differentiation.In a certain dredge haul, high-alumina abyssal tholeiites (with Al2O3 contents near or over 17%) occur in association with low-alumina abyssal tholeiites. The magma of high-alumina abyssal tholeiites would be generated from that of low-alumina abyssal tholeiites by differentiation at a depth around 30 km.In pillow lavas of abyssal tholeiite free from weathering and metamorphism, the chilled rim of the pillow usually has virtually the same chemical composition as the more crystalline core except for a decrease of K2O content toward the rim. On the other hand, the weathered rim of pillow lavas shows marked compositional change. The Fe2O3/FeO ratio of unweathered abyssal tholeiite is in the range of 0.1 to 0.3. This ratio and the H2O– and H2O+ contents increase with advancing weathering.Lamont-Doherty Geological Observatory Contribution No. 1339 相似文献

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

The 1972 February and December Hachijo-Oki earthquakes (M
s=7.3 and 7.4), in the northernmost part of the Izu-Bonin subduction zone, are the only major events (M
s>7.0) in the Bonin arc for the past 80 years. Relocation of the hypocenters, using one smaller event having a wellconstrained focal depth as a master event, shows that the depth of the February event is 10 km shallower than that of the December event. We have determined the rupture process for both events by minimizing the error in waveform between observed and synthetic seismograms. Although the number of available stations are limited, the depth range of the major energy release for the December event extends deeper than for the February one. The rupture propagated up-dip for both events. It is likely that the rupture zone of the two events overlapped, and that the December event ruptured the deeper part. This suggestion is consistent with the observation that the aftershock zones of both events overlap with that of the December event shifted landward. The waveforms of the December event have a smaller high frequency component than those of the February event, suggesting that the stress at the thrust zone became more uniform or reduced after the February event.No thrust type smaller event occurred near the rupture zone. Instead, theP-axes of smaller events are parallel to the dip of the slab and theirT-axes dip to the southwest. Focal depths of these events estimated byP-wave forward modeling are generally between 40–50 km and located beneath the thrust zone. We thus interpret them as the events within the Pacific slab near the zone ruptured by the two major events. The stress concentration around the rupture zone of the major events is suggested to have triggered these slab events. After the occurrence of the large events, the slab events are concentrated near the deeper portion of the rupture zone. These events may have been caused by the loading of the down-dip compressional stress near the down-dip end of the rupture zone due to the rupture. The occurrence of the doublet of large earthquakes and a number of down-dip compressional events beneath their rupture zones in a shallow portion of the subducting slab indicates an unusual zone of seismic coupling in the Bonin arc, most of which is seismically quiescent. 相似文献

Horizontal bidirectional loading tests are conducted for real-sized high-damping rubber (HDR) bearings with diameters of 700 mm (HDR700) and 1300 mm (HDR1300). The hysteresis loops of these bearings under bidirectional horizontal loadings are compared with those under unidirectional loadings. The results show that the bearing force measurement in the primary direction of loading increases when there is displacement in the orthogonal direction. Unusually, the maximum restoring force in the orthogonal direction to the primary loading direction occurs near zero displacement. On the basis of the observations of the restoring forces, a rate-independent model is proposed. This model simulates well the test results under both bidirectional loading and unidirectional loading. It can reproduce the irregular restoring forces characteristics around zero displacement as described above. Bidirectional loading induced twist deformation in the HDR bearings that increased local shear strains. This phenomenon results in an early failure as observed in HDR700. The additional shear strain is estimated based on the twist deformation measured by video image analysis. The comparison of the nominal total shear stress demonstrates that the increase of shear stress because of bidirectional loading occurs when the average shear strain is larger than about 200%. The larger the shear strain, the greater the bidirectional effect. It is shown that the nominal total shear stress of average strain of 350% under bidirectional circular loading pattern is approximately the same as the average shear strain of 400% under unidirectional loading. This means that the average shear strain of 350% under a bidirectional circular loading corresponds to a local shear strain of 400%. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献
