Fractal Dimension Analysis of the Fine Aggregate Gradation of Interlocking Skeleton Asphalt Mixture

By analyzing the fine aggregate gradation scales from standards,fine aggregate in the asphalt mixture is regarded as a whole research object and fractal dimensions X of the samples were obtained by linear regression and（AC-13）is 2.43-2.56,Sup-13 is 2.28-2.54,SMA-13 is 2.66-2.88 and SAC-13 is 2.54-2.73.In the dense gradation mixture,there are little different between fractal dimensions of coarse and fine aggregates but it makes sense for skeleton asphalt mixture.For a given coarse aggregate gradation and the same percentage of coarse aggregates,the compressive strengths and splitting strengths of the asphalt mixture are studied when the fractal dimensions are selected as 2.60,2.65 and 2.70,respectively.When asphalt-stone ratio is less than optimal asphalt-stone ratio,the higher compressive strength is,the bigger X can be gotten.When asphalt-stone ratio is larger than optimal asphalt-stone ratio,little difference of compressive strength can be observed under these three conditions.The largest splitting strength can be got when X is 2.65,and larger splitting strength can be observed with the ascending of the asphalt-stone ratio.

Parametric study on single shot peening by dimensional analysis method incorporated with finite element method

Shot peening is a widely used surface treatment method by generating compressive residual stress near the surface of metallic materials to increase fatigue life and re- sistance to corrosion fatigue, cracking, etc. Compressive re- sidual stress and dent profile are important factors to eval- uate the effectiveness of shot peening process. In this pa- per, the influence of dimensionless parameters on maximum compressive residual stress and maximum depth of the dent were investigated. Firstly, dimensionless relations of pro- cessing parameters that affect the maximum compressive residual stress and the maximum depth of the dent were de- duced by dimensional analysis method. Secondly, the in- fluence of each dimensionless parameter on dimensionless variables was investigated by the finite element method. Fur- thermore, related empirical formulas were given for each di- mensionless parameter based on the simulation results. Fi- nally, comparison was made and good agreement was found between the simulation results and the empirical formula, which shows that a useful approach is provided in this pa- per for analyzing the influence of each individual parameter.

A gas-kinetic theory based multidimensional high-order method for the compressible Navier–Stokes solutions

This paper presents a gas-kinetic theory based multidimensional high-order method for the compressible Naiver–Stokes solutions. In our previous study, a spatially and temporally dependent third-order flux scheme with the use of a third-order gas distribution function is employed.However, the third-order flux scheme is quite complicated and less robust than the second-order scheme. In order to reduce its complexity and improve its robustness, the secondorder flux scheme is adopted instead in this paper, while the temporal order of method is maintained by using a two stage temporal discretization. In addition, its CPU cost is relatively lower than the previous scheme. Several test cases in two and three dimensions, containing high Mach number compressible flows and low speed high Reynolds number laminar flows, are presented to demonstrate the method capacity.

山区纵、横波联合勘探的资料处理

在四川山区,由于采用浅井激发横波,所以在记录上出现较强的相干干扰波,如声波、拉夫面波和浅层反射-折射多次波,严重地掩盖了有效反射波。此外,工区内地表地形及表层厚度、速度变化剧烈,静校正问题显得非常突出。鉴于这两种情况,资料处理的重点是作好二维滤波和静校正,而且更强调在叠前资料上作好这两项处理,并尽可能保持原有的相对振幅关系。为此,研制了一套适合四川山区碳酸盐岩储层的纵、横波资料处理流程及综合处理流程。综合处理流程主要用于提取纵、横波分层振幅比,全剖面纵、横波振幅比,纵、横波速度比及泊松比等信息。
