When the type and distribution of unfavorable geological bodies (UGBs) associated with their influences on geoengineering are complicated or unfortunately are overlooked, we should pay more attentions to internal features of rocks grades IV and V (even in local but mostly controlling zones). With increasing attentions to the characteristics, mechanism and influences of engineering construction-triggered geohazards, it is crucial to fully understand the disturbance of these geohazards on project construction. A reasonable determination method in construction procedure, i.e. the shape of working face, the type of engineering support and the choice of feasible procedure, should be considered in order to mitigate the construction-triggered geohazards. Due to their high sensitivity to groundwater and in-situ stress, various UGBs exhibit hysteretic nature and failure modes. To give a complete understanding on the internal causes, the emphasis on advanced comprehensive geological forecasting and overall reinforcement treatment is therefore of more practical significance. Compre- hensive evaluation of influential factors, identification of UGB, and measures of discontinuity dynamic controlling comprises the geoengineering condition evaluation and dynamic controlling method. In a case of a cut slope, the variations of UGBs and the impacts of key environmental factors are presented, where more severe construction-triggered geohazards emerged in construction stage than those predicted in design and field investigation stages. As a result, the weight ratios of different influential factors with respect to field investigation, design and construction are obtained.展开更多

[Method] By using conventional material, ground encryption automatic station materials, wind profiling radar data and Doppler radar data, strong precipitation and regional large rainstorm in Lingxi area on August 3, 2010, were expounded principal of heavy weather analysis. [Result] The precipitation process was the result of different scales and different height systems influenced by the southwest airflow in the edge of subtropical high, weak cold air penetrating southward before westerly trough and the easterly in the higher layer (10 km above); the instability of atmosphere structure was the premise of strong precipitation. Ground convergent, east storm with senior northwestern current interaction triggered the release of unstable energy; the southwest airstream in the edge of subtropical high provided water vapor supply. The duration of the precipitation was short and the intensity was large. Precipitation moved to certain direction, having typical mesoscale strong convection system. Strong precipitation fell in the same place as the convergence area of wind field. The place having next strong precipitation can be predicted based on the wind field convergence position along with the movement of time. Outline radar data and Doppler radar data contour line products can more accurately represent atmospheric vertical wind field structure. [Conclusion] The study provided certain references for the report of rainstorm.展开更多

The results showed that this rainstorm occurring in the whole Shaoyang City was an typical rainstorm during the first rainy season, and resulted from the strong development of the mesoscale system generated under extremely favorable weather situation. Guided by the cold advection behind the East Asia trough at 500 hPa, cold air moved southward and met southwest airflow in the northwest of strong subtropical high, so that the junction zone of clod and warm airflow was kept in the middle of Hunan Province. In addition, the stable junction zone of clod and warm airflow as well as extremely vigorous southwest warm and wet airflow made the rainstorm have adequate water vapor, dynamic and thermal conditions, which was extremely beneficial to the stong development of small and medium-scale convection systems. In a word, due to stong water vapor and convergence upward movement, reinforcement of low-level southwest jet, activity of low-level weak cold air, exacerbation of convective unstable stratification, superposition of strong divergence at high levels, and obvious development of vertical vorticity caused by vertical shear of horizontal wind or increase of moist baroclinicity, the rainstorm happened in Shaoyang City.展开更多

The softening mechanism was dynamic recovery(DRV) at 950°C and the strain rate of 1 s^(-1), whereas it was dynamic recrystallization(DRX) under the other conditions. A modified constitutive equation based on the Arrhenius model with strain compensation reasonably predicted the flow stress under various deformation conditions, and the activation energy was calculated to be 643.92 kJ ×mol^(-1). The critical stresses of dynamic recrystallization under different conditions were determined from the work-hardening rate(θ)–flow stress(σ) and-θ/σ–σ curves. The optimum processing parameters via analysis of the processing map and the softening mechanism were determined to be a deformation temperature range from 1100 to 1200°C and a strain-rate range from 0.001 to 0.08 s^(-1), with a power dissipation efficiency η greater than 31%.展开更多

The disparity of disequilibrated crystallization phenomena in different main crystalline phases causes various morphological features of the crystal aggregates. At the same time, disequilibrated crystallization causes great stress retained in the crystals, which results in cracks in glazes when the temperature drops. According to the results, the authors analyzed those phenomena and displayed correlative figures and data.展开更多

The authors derive the corresponding quasilinear wave equation with dynamical boundary conditions, and prove the exact boundary controllability of this system by means of a constructive method with modular structure.
文摘Wireless sensor networks(WSNs)are created and affect our daily lives.You can find applications in various fields such as health,accident,life,manufacturing,production management,network management and many other fields.WSN now connects to the Internet of Things,connects the sensor to the Internet,and then uses it for collaboration and collaboration.However,when WSN is part of the internet we need to be able to study and analyze related terms.In this article,we’re going to look at different ways to getWSN online and identify the challenges that address in future as well.
文摘During both hot and cold seasons,masonry walls play an important role in the thermal performance between the interior and the exterior of occupied spaces.It is thus essential to analyze the thermal behavior at the hollow block’s level in order to better understand the temperature and heat flux distribution in its structure and potentially limit as much as possible the heat transfer through the block.In this scope,this paper offers an experimental and numerical in-depth analysis of heat transfer phenomena inside a hollow block using a dedicated experimental setup including a well-insulated reference box and several thermocouples and fluxmeters distributed at the boundaries and inside the hollow block.The block was then numerically 3D modelled and simulated using COMSOL Multiphysics under the same conditions,properties,and dimensions as the experimentally tested block.The comparison between the numerical and experimental results provides very satisfactory results with relative difference of less than 4%for the computed thermal resistance.
