滑坡–堵江–涌浪灾害链模拟的DEM–CFD耦合分析方法及其应用

滑坡–堵江–涌浪灾害链的演化过程涉及复杂的滑坡–河流相互作用。为了真实再现这一演进过程,本文提出了一种扩展的离散元法(DEM)与计算流体动力学(CFD)耦合数值方法,通过在局部平均DEM–CFD耦合方法中引入流体体积法(VOF)建立了一套能够描述河流自由水面演化的扩展DEM–CFD耦合数值框架,实现了对滑坡涌浪形成及传播过程的追踪;并提出了一种新的局部孔隙率计算方法即虚拟球模型,来克服网格颗粒临界尺寸比的限制,从而实现复杂地形建模要求;进一步通过多个典型算例验证其准确性和有效性。在此基础上,开展了滑坡–堵江–涌浪灾害链演化模拟,并应用至白格滑坡坝形成过程复演,深入分析了滑坡–河流动态演化过程及耦合作用机理。结果表明:所提出的方法能够准确模拟滑坡–河流相互作用;滑坡–河流–河谷地形的耦合作用驱动了灾害演化,滑坡体驱动了涌浪的传播,而河流则增加了滑坡体的动能耗散,且对其沉积过程在河流流向上产生相反影响;模拟得到的白格滑坡运移路径、沉积形态及涌浪侵蚀面积与实地调查结果吻合度较高,成功再现了2018年10月11日白格滑坡堵江事件。本文所提出的扩展DEM–CFD耦合数值方法为深入研究滑坡–堵江–涌浪灾害链演化机制提供了有力的数值工具,对于灾害预测及防灾减灾策略的制定具有一定的参考价值。

Context Information and Fragments Based Cross-Domain Word Segmentation

A new joint decoding strategy that combines the character-based and word-based conditional random field model is proposed.In this segmentation framework,fragments are used to generate candidate Out-of-Vocabularies(OOVs).After the initial segmentation,the segmentation fragments are divided into two classes as "combination"(combining several fragments as an unknown word) and "segregation"(segregating to some words).So,more OOVs can be recalled.Moreover,for the characteristics of the cross-domain segmentation,context information is reasonably used to guide Chinese Word Segmentation(CWS).This method is proved to be effective through several experiments on the test data from Sighan Bakeoffs 2007 and Bakeoffs 2010.The rates of OOV recall obtain better performance and the overall segmentation performances achieve a good effect.

Electromagnetic continuous casting by imposing multi-electromagnetic field

In order to obtain cast metal of high quality, an investigation was carried out by simultaneous imposition of multi electromagnetic fields from the outside of a cold crucible copper mold. Sn 4.5%Pb as a simulator of high melting point metal was continuously cast under different conditions. The results show that multi electromagnetic fields can eliminate surface defects, and coarse columnar grains of the solidification structure is turned into equiaxed crystal with the increase of magnetic flux density. Moreover, finer equiaxed crystal structure is obtained when rapidly solidified sheet is fed into the mold during continuous casting.[

Three-Dimensional Boundary Element Method Applied to Nonlinear Wave Transformation

For higher accuracy in simulating the transformation of three dimensional waves, in consideration of the advantages of constant panels and linear elements, a combined boundary elements is applied in this research. The method can be used to remove the transverse vibration due to the accumulation of computational errors. A combined boundary condition of sponge layer and Sommerfeld radiation condition is used to remove the reflected waves from the computing domain. By following the water particle on the water surface, the third order Stokes wave transform is simulated by the numerical wave flume technique. The computed results are in good agreement with theoretical ones.

Detection and characterization of hepatocellular carcinoma in rats with liver cirrhosis:diagnostic value of combined use of MR positive and negative contrast agents

BACKGROUND: Gadolinium-enhanced multi-phase dynamic imaging has improved the accuracy of the diagnosis of hypervascular hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but using gadolinium-enhanced dynamic imaging alone is problematic in evaluating hypovascular HCC. This work aimed at evaluating the combined use of superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO)-enhanced and gadolinium set in distinguishing HCCs from regenerative nodules (RNs) in a rat model induced by diethylnitrosamine (DEN). METHODS: DEN-induced HCC model rats (n=40) and control rats (n=10) were studied. From weeks 16 to 19 after DEN administration, 4 animals were scanned every week. The hepatic changes were tested with a 1.5 Tesla magnet, and MR images of SPIO-enhanced and gadolinium set were obtained. According to the pathologic changes, the tumorigenesis was divided into HCC and RN (diameter of nodules >= 3 mm). Diagnostic accuracy of the combined SPIO-enhanced and gadolinium set and the gadolinium set alone was evaluated using receiver-operating characteristic curves. Sensitivity and specificity of the combined SPIO-enhanced and gadolinium set and the gadolinium set alone were calculated. RESULTS: The listed tests were completed in 29 rats (21 treated and 8 controls). One hundred and six nodules (82 HCCs, 24 RNs) were analyzed. The Az value and sensitivity with the combined SPIO-enhanced and gadolinium set (Az 0.94, sensitivity 0.96) were higher than those with the gadolinium set alone (Az 0.92, sensitivity 0.89). Using the combined SPIO-enhanced and gadolinium set led to detection of 6 nodules which were negative in the gadolinium set alone and 3 nodules were correctly characterized. CONCLUSION: Using the combined SPIO-enhanced and gadolinium set improved the detectability of HCCs and the SPIO-enhanced imaging compensated for the gadolinium set in differentiating HCCs from RNs in a rat model.

Solubility and sorption of petroleum hydrocarbons in water and cosolvent systems

The solubility and sorption of oil by uncontaminated clay loam and silt loam soils were studied from water and cosolvent/water solutions using batch techniques. The data obtained from the dissolution and sorption experiments were used to evaluate the applicability of the cosolvent theory to oil as a complex mixture. Aqueous solubility and soil-water distribution coeffcients (Kd,w, L/kg) were estimated by extrapolating from cosolvent data, with a log-linear cosolvency model, to the volume fraction of cosolve...

High temperature creep property of silicon particles reinforced high Al Zn based alloys

The deformation creep characteristics of as cast silicon particles reinforced zinc based alloys (Si/ZA27) were determined by high temperature creep experiments at 453 K and 61.1 MPa condition. The experimental results indicated that the minimum creep rate of the silicon containing alloys are about three fifth of that of the matrix alloy(ZA27). The deformation process is mainly controlled by grain boundary sliding mechanism. Both dislocation climb and disperse silicon phase are also contributed to it. Micro structural changes were investigated during the deformation experiments.

Discriminative Latent Model Based Chinese Multiword Expression Extraction

Discriminative Latent Model(DLM) is proposed for Multiword Expressions(MWEs) extraction in Chinese text to improve the performance of Machine Translation(MT) system such as Template Based MT(TBMT).For MT systems to become of further practical use,they need to be enhanced with MWEs processing capability.As our study towards this goal,we propose DLM,which is developed for sequence labeling task including hidden structures,to extract MWEs for MT systems.DLM combines the advantages of existing discriminative models,which can learn hidden structures in sequence labeling task.In our evaluations,DLM achieves precisions ranging up to 90.73% for some type of MWEs,which is higher than state-of-the-art discriminative models.Such results demonstrate that it is feasible to automatically identify many Chinese MWEs using our DLM tool.With MWEs processing model,BLEU score of MT system has also been increased by up to 0.3 in close test.

A New Form of Boussineq Equation with Improved Linear Dispersion Characteristics

It has been shown that Boussinesq type equations, which include the lowest order effects of nonlinearity and frequency dispersion, can provide an accurate description of wave evolution in coastal regions. But different linear dispersion characteristics of the equation can be obtained by different integrating method. In this paper, a new form of the Boussinesq equation is derived by use of two different layer horizontal velocity variables instead of the commonly used depth-averaged velocity or an arbitrary layer velocity. This significantly improves the linear dispersion properties of the Boussinesq equation and enables it to be applied to a wider range of water depth.
