In this study, a combination of grey relational analysis and dimensional analysis procedures for prediction of dominant vibration frequency are presented. Six factors are selected from extensive effect factor sequences based on grey relational analysis, and then a novel blast-induced dominant vibration frequency prediction is obtained by dimensional analysis. In addition, the prediction is simplified by sensitivity analysis with 195 experimental blast records. Validation is carried out for the proposed formula based on the site test database of the first- period blasting excavation in the Guangdong Lufeng Nuclear Power Plant (GLNPP). The results show the proposed approach has a higher fitting degree and smaller mean error when compared with traditional predictions.展开更多

Its implementation mainly includes the traditional frequency domain and the recent popular space-time domain. Firstly, we use the upward ray tracing strategy to get the backward wavefields. Then,we use the dominant frequency of the seismic data to simplify the imaginary traveltime calculation of the wavefields, which can cut down the Fourier transform number compared with the traditional GBM in the space-time domain. In addition, we choose an optimized parameter for the take-off angle increment of the up-going and down-going rays. These optimizations help us get an efficient space-time-domain acoustic GBM approach. Typical four examples show that the proposed method can significantly improve the computational efficiency up to one or even two orders of magnitude in different models with different model parameters and produce good imaging results with comparable accuracy and resolution with the traditional GBM in the space-time domain.展开更多

Structure-oriented edge-preserving smoothing requires information such as the local orientation and edge of the reflections. The information is usually estimated from seismic data with full frequency bandwidth. When the data has a very low signal to noise ratio (SNR), the noise usually reduces the estimation accuracy. For seismic data with extremely low SNR, the dominant frequency has higher SNR than other frequencies, so it can provide orientation and edge information more reliably than other frequencies. Orientation and edge are usually described in terms of apparent reflection dips and coherence differences, respectively. When frequency changes, both dip and coherence difference change more slowly than the seismogram itself. For this reason, dip and coherence estimated from dominant frequency data can approximately represent those of other frequency data. Ricker wavelet are widely used in seismic modeling. The Marr wavelet has the same shape as Ricker wavelets in both time and frequency domains, so the Marr wavelet transform is selected to divide seismic data into several frequency bands. Reflection apparent dip as well as the edge information can be obtained by scanning the dominant frequency data. This information can be used to selectively smooth the frequency bands (dominant, low, and high frequencies) separately by structure-oriented edge-preserving smoothing technology. The ultimate noise-suppressed seismic data is the combination of the smoothed frequency band data. Application to synthetic and real data shows the method can effectively reduce noise, preserve edges, improve trackable reflection continuity, and maintain useful information in seismic data.展开更多

Active ultrasonic testing and passive acoustic emission(AE) monitoring were combined to monitor the damage characteristics of the samples. The uniaxial compression strength(UCS) of the sample treated at 200 ℃ shows no apparent change compared with that of the nonheated sample, while the UCS increases at 300 °C and decreases at 400 ℃. As the temperature increases from 25 to 400 ℃, the initial P-wave velocity(Vp) decreases gradually from 4909 to 3823 m/s, and the initial Vpanisotropy ε increases slightly from 0.03 to 0.09. As the axial stress increases, ε increases rapidly in the crack closure stage and unstable cracking stage. The attenuation of ultrasonic amplitude spectra also shows an obvious anisotropy. Besides, the main location magnitude of AE events decreases after thermal treatment, and low-frequency AE events and high-amplitude AE events increasingly occur. However, there is insufficient evidence that the treatment temperature below 400 ℃ has a significant effect on the temporal characteristics, source locations, and b-values of AE.展开更多

The results show that elevated tension suppresses fluctuations of maximum displacement with respect to flow velocity and makes chaotic VIV more likely to appear. With respect to periodic VIV, if elevated tension is applied, the dominant vibration frequency in the in-line (IL) direction will switch from a fundamental vibration frequency to twice the value of the fundamental vibration frequency, which results in a ratio of the dominant vibration frequency in the IL direction to that in the cross-flow direction of 2.0. The suppression of the elevated tension in the fluctuation of the maximum displacement causes the axial tension to become an active control parameter for the VIV maximum displacement of a tension-dominated long riser or tether of an engineering structure in deep oceans. However, the axial tension must be optimized before being used since the high dominant vibration frequency due to the elevated tension may unfavorably affect the fatigue life of the riser or tether.展开更多

Construction of underground structures like tunnels has a direct impact on the above-ground structures. The most important impacts are soil crust movement of the structure movement), acceleration change of the earthquake on structures, and land subsidence. The present research aims at seismic evaluation of the effect of soil type in land subsidence and effective mobility time in tunneling projects. For this purpose, two different soil types are chosen to model and assess factors using numerical methods. The outcome of this research concludes that tunneling changes in the dominant frequency record if these changes reach to the extent that structure frequency equals to record frequency, resonance phenomenon happens.展开更多

The newly formulated solution combines two different approaches. The first, which is useful mostly for the near-field seismic analyses, is based on the analysis of seismic amplitude characteristics, and the second, relevant for farfield evaluation, is extended by the duration and frequency of the seismic wave. Both approaches are based on the seismic analyses of the waveforms generated by blasting recorded by the local seismic network. The proposed solutions are tested and validated in deep underground mines in Poland in which the room-and-pillar mining method is applied. Based on performed analysis, it is shown that both methods may be used as a rockburst hazard control in underground mines. However, developed methods may also be successfully implemented in other engineering practices, including the assessment of seismic vibrations in open pits and quarries.展开更多

Several characteristic indicators of the flow specifically of the pressure were calculated. In terms of these characteristic indicators, the effect of bed size on flow behavior was investigated. The results show that in the fully fluidized state, the pressure drop is slightly higher in smaller beds, but the pressure drops in the 10- and 15-cm beds are close. The 15-cm bed has the lowest pressure-fluctuation amplitude. The amplitudes at P1 and P2 in the lower part of the bed are very close for bed sizes below 10 cm, but the amplitude at P3 near the bed surface increases with decreasing bed size. No general trend was observed regarding the effect of bed size on skewness and kurtosis of the pressure for all four axial heights. For the average, standard deviation, skewness, and kurtosis of the pressure at P4, the values are close for the two small beds (2 × 10 and 5 × 5 cm2) and the two large beds (10 × 10 and 15 × 15 cm2), and hence the effect of bed size separates the beds into two groups. In the fully fluidized state, for P1, P2, and P3, the Kolmogorov entropy and the dominant frequency both increase with increasing bed size, but in the pseudo-2D bed both are between the values for the 5- and 10-cm beds.展开更多

Recurrence plot (RP) and recurrence rate (RR), and the simplest variable of recurrence quantification analysis (RQA) were used to analyze the pressure signals. Different patterns observed in RP reflect different dynamic behavior of the system under study. It was also found that the variance of RR (a2R) Could reveal the peak dominant frequencies (PDF) of different dynamic systems: completely periodic, completely stochastic, Lorenz system, and fluidized bed. The results were compared with power spectral density. Additionally, the diagram of σ^2RR provides a new technique for prediction of transition velocity from bubbling to turbulent fluidization regime.展开更多

文摘The effects of tension on vortex-induced vibration (VIV) responses for a tension-dominated long cylinder with an aspect ratio of 550 in uniform flows are experimentally investigated in this paper. The results show that elevated tension suppresses fluctuations of maximum displacement with respect to flow velocity and makes chaotic VIV more likely to appear. With respect to periodic VIV, if elevated tension is applied, the dominant vibration frequency in the in-line (IL) direction will switch from a fundamental vibration frequency to twice the value of the fundamental vibration frequency, which results in a ratio of the dominant vibration frequency in the IL direction to that in the cross-flow direction of 2.0. The suppression of the elevated tension in the fluctuation of the maximum displacement causes the axial tension to become an active control parameter for the VIV maximum displacement of a tension-dominated long riser or tether of an engineering structure in deep oceans. However, the axial tension must be optimized before being used since the high dominant vibration frequency due to the elevated tension may unfavorably affect the fatigue life of the riser or tether.

文摘Pressure fluctuations in four bubbling fluidized beds having different bed sizes (three square cross-sections of 5, 10, and 15 cm in side length, and one rectangular cross-section of 2 × 10 cm2) were measured at four axial positions (P1, P2, P3, and P4). Several characteristic indicators of the flow specifically of the pressure were calculated. In terms of these characteristic indicators, the effect of bed size on flow behavior was investigated. The results show that in the fully fluidized state, the pressure drop is slightly higher in smaller beds, but the pressure drops in the 10- and 15-cm beds are close. The 15-cm bed has the lowest pressure-fluctuation amplitude.
