SRE for planning mountain tunnels bridges the gap between the planning on the macro level and the design/analysis on the micro level regarding the risk management of infrastructural systems. A transition from subjective or qualitative description to objective or quantitative quantification of seismic risk is aimed to improve the seismic behavior of the mountain tunnel and thus reduce the associated seismic risk. A new method of systematic SRE for the planning mountain tunnel was presented herein. The method employs extension theory(ET)and an ET-based improved analytical hierarchy process. Additionally, a new risk-classification criterion is proposed to classify and quantify the seismic risk for a planning mountain tunnel. This SRE method is applied to a mountain tunnel in southwest China, using the extension model based on matter element theory and dependent function operation.The reasonability and flexibility of the SRE method for application to the mountain tunnel are illustrated.According to different seismic risk levels and classification criteria, methods and measures for improving the seismic design are proposed, which can reduce the seismic risk and provide a frame of reference for elaborate seismic design.展开更多

The result shows that, from the anti-erodibility point of view, the order of those types is: Pink sandstone, celadon sandstone, purple sandstone, grey sandstone and commixed sandstone. For the evaluation process adopts a simple method, a direct, reasonable and practical result is given, which is also identical to the result of the field survey on soil and rock erosion problems. Consequently, the research on the Pisha-sandstone's anti-erodibility issue is turned from the qualitative description process to the quantitative evaluation stage.展开更多

However, the low total organic carbon content of saline-lacustrine source rock, and unclear genetic mechanism, evaluation criteria and resources potential of the shale oil have restricted the exploration and evaluation of Yingxiongling shale oil. Through analysis of large amounts of cores, well drilling, seismic, laboratory test data and integrated study, focusing on the shale and mixed types of shale oil reservoirs characterized by high-frequency interbedded organic-rich laminated shale and limy dolomite, it is concluded that the shale oil in the upper member of Lower Ganchaigou Formation in the Yingxiongling area have six geological characteristics:(1) two-stage hydrocarbon generation of hydrogen-rich source rock and large amount of retained oil;(2) multiple types of reservoir space and good reservoir properties;(3)source-reservoir integration, thick “sweet spot” and high oil-bearing grade;(4) high pressure coefficient between and under salt layers, and sufficient formation energy;(5) high content of light components, high gas-oil ratio, and good quality of the crude oil;(6) high content of brittle minerals and good fracability. The evaluation criterion of shale oil is preliminarily established based on the eight parameters: total organic carbon content, maturity, effective porosity, oil saturation, brittle mineral content,pressure coefficient, lamellation density, and burial depth. Combined with parameters of E32 source rock thickness, area, vertical distribution of oil layers, and free hydrocarbon content, the shale oil resources have been preliminarily estimated as 21×10^(8) t.The structurally stable area is the predominant objective of shale oil exploration and the favorable exploration area for Yingxiongling shale oil is nearly 800 km^(2).展开更多

文摘Purpose:Head injury criterion(HIC)companied by a rotation-based metric was widely believed to behelpful for head injury prediction in road traffic accidents.Recently,the Euro-New Car AssessmentProgram utilized a newly developed metric called diffuse axonal multi-axis general evaluation(DAMAGE)to explain test device for human occupant restraint(THOR)head injury,which demonstratedexcellent ability in capturing concussions and diffuse axonal injuries.However,there is still a lack ofcomprehensive understanding regarding the effectiveness of using DAMAGE for Hybrid III 50thpercentile male dummy(H50th)head injury assessment.The objective of this study is to determinewhether the DAMAGE could capture the risk of H50th brain injury during small overlap barrier tests.Methods:To achieve this objective,a total of 24 vehicle crash loading curves were collected as input datafor the multi-body simulation.Two commercially available mathematical dynamic models,namelyH50th and THOR,were utilized to investigate the differences in head injury response.Subsequently,adecision method known as simple additive weighting was employed to establish a comprehensive braininjury metric by incorporating the weighted HIC and either DAMAGE or brain injury criterion.Furthermore,35 sets of vehicle crash test data were used to analyze these brain injury metrics.Results:The rotational displacement of the THOR head is significantly greater than that of the H50thhead.The maximum linear and rotational head accelerations experienced by H50th and THOR modelswere(544.6±341.7)m/s^(2),(2468.2±1309.4)rad/s^(2) and(715.2±332.8)m/s^(2),(3778.7±1660.6)rad/s^(2),respectively.Under the same loading condition during small overlap barrier(SOB)tests,THOR exhibits ahigher risk of head injury compared to the H50th model.It was observed that the overall head injuryresponse during the small overlap left test condition is greater than that during the small overlap righttest.Additionally,an equation was formulated to establish the necessary relationship between theDAMAGE values of THOR and H50th.Conclusion:If H50th rather than THOR is employed as an evaluation tool in SOB crash tests,newlydesigned vehicles are more likely to achieve superior performance scores.According to the current injurycurve for DAMAGE and brain injury criterion,it is highly recommended that HIC along with DAMAGE wasprioritized for brain injury assessment in SOB tests.
