A stable solution of an ill-posed inverse problem was obtained by the regularization methods in which some desired structures were imposed to stabilize the inverse problem. By the smoothness-constrained model and approximate sensitivity method, the stable subsurface resistivity structures were reconstructed. The synthetic examples show that the smoothness-constrained regularized inversion method is effective and can be reasonable to reconstruct three-dimensional subsurface resistivity structures.展开更多

Conventional AVO analysis is insufficient for long-offset seismic data. To widen the application range of AVO analysis, we present a new P-wave reflection coefficient approximation applicable to long-offset data. Our result is similar to the well known Shuey formula which can be treated as an approximation to our results for short-offset seismic data.展开更多

Site-amplification factors are then quantified with Vs^30 and applied to the ShakeMap system developed by this study to revise ground-motion amplitudes on bedrock estimated from empirical relationships. Finally, the distribution of ground motion parameters on the surface is obtained. This article also introduces the calculation process, calculation models of the ShakeMap systems and related software systems. In conclusion, certain examples indicate that the ShakeMap system is feasible in the Chinese Mainland.展开更多

Comparing with normal advance rate, fast advance rate and slow advance rate may cause some new changes of strata behaviors. The characteristics of ground pressure behaviors in working face with great mining height at different forward speeds were studied by similarity model experiment in laboratory.

However, in real cases, the main structural element of an underground structure is slab and side wall since they not only support the structure itself but also may sustain external loads from blast, earthquake, and other kinds of impact. In the present study, the MAM is extended from beam to plate elements and the soil-structure interaction is considered and simplified when calculating structural response under blast load. Pressure-impulse diagrams are generated accordingly for further quick damage assessment.展开更多

文摘Recently, the mode approximation method(MAM) has been adopted to analyze beam elements against blast load. However, in real cases, the main structural element of an underground structure is slab and side wall since they not only support the structure itself but also may sustain external loads from blast, earthquake, and other kinds of impact. In the present study, the MAM is extended from beam to plate elements and the soil-structure interaction is considered and simplified when calculating structural response under blast load. Pressure-impulse diagrams are generated accordingly for further quick damage assessment.
