贵州茅台水源功能区不同植被类型的蓄水效应

森林植被层次结构对区域的蓄水保土功能具有重要的影响,对维护区域生态平衡也具有重要的意义。以贵州茅台水源功能区为研究对象,采用野外调查及室内分析相结合的方法,分析不同植被类型的蓄水效应,探讨防护林、水源涵养林的最优搭配层次结构。结果表明:随日降雨量增大,不同植被类型冠层截留量呈增加趋势,截留率呈相对减少趋势,树干茎流量和茎流率有所增加,且存在树干茎流产流降雨临界值,其中竹林为12.5mm,针阔混交林与马尾松林均为14.5mm,柏木林为18.5 mm;不同植被类型枯落物最大持水量平均值乔木林为26.14%,灌丛为9.26%,竹林为7.33%,草地为6.93%。研究揭示林分结构越复杂,蓄水效应越显著;在自然立地条件下,贵州茅台水源功能区乡土树种造林最优层次结构为针阔混交林+铁仔灌丛+白茅草丛。

3D finite elements analysis of vertically loaded composite piled raft

In recent years,a new type of foundation named composite piled raft foundation (also called long short composite piled raft) has been developed.Where designing shallow foundations would mean unacceptable settlement,or other environmental risks exist which could impair the structure in the future,composite piled raft foundations could be used.Finite element method was applied to study the behavior of this type of foundation subjected to vertical loading.In order to determine an optimal pile arrangement pattern which yields the minimum settlement,various pile arrangements under different vertical stress levels were investigated.Results show that with increasing the vertical stress on the raft,the effectiveness of the arrangements of short and long piles become more visible.In addition,a new factor named "composite piled raft efficiency" (CPRE) has been defined which determines the efficiency of long short piles arrangement in a composite piled raft foundation.This factor will increase when short piles take more axial stresses and long piles take less axial stresses.In addition,it is found that the changes in settlements for different long short piles arrangement are in a well agreement with changes in values of CPRE ratio.Thus,CPRE ratio can be used as a factor to determine the efficiency of piles arrangements in composite piled raft foundation from the view point of reducing raft settlements.

Seismogram Analysis and Fitting of Three Earthquakes,West Papua,Recorded at Stations ENH and KMI,China

The S wave velocity structure of the earth below Eastern Southeast Asia has been investigated by analyzing the seismogram from surface wave to multiple depth waves in the time domain and three Cartesian components simultaneously.The wave passes across the front area of subduction zone between the Philippine plate and the Asian plate.The main data are waveform comparisons,instead of the arrival times.The synthetic seismogram is calculated using the GEMINI method.The synthetic seismogram constructed by PREMAN global earth model deviates greatly from the measured one.To solve this problem,corrections are needed for the β speed structure.Corrections cover the gradient change of β_h,which turns from negative to positive in upper mantle layers as in the PREMAN,change of earth crust depth and change of zero order coefficients of β velocity function in all earth mantle layers.So,the fitting is obtained,as well as the arrival time or the waveform of Love and Rayleigh surface waves,the S wave and the repetitive depth waves ScS_2 and ScS_3.This result reveals that the Southeast Asia,being stretched due to tectonic release,has a mantle in some parts with negative anomaly of S wave velocity and vertical anisotropy in all earth mantle layers.

Stress sensitivity of coal samples in terms of anisotropy

The permeability and porosity of coal seams are anisotropic, and the variation of confining stress may induce deformation in coal samples. In order to study these characteristics, experiments and model analyses were conducted to understand the behaviors of anisotropic stress sensitivity of lean coal samples. The results showed as the closure of cleats and the generation of micro-cracks, the strong stress sensitivity of coal samples and the discrete changes in porosity were caused by confining pressure changes. In the compression period, the anisotropy trend first increased, and then decreased. In the direction perpendicular to the bedding plane, the permeability decrease rate and the irreversible damage rate were the highest. In the direction parallel to the cleats, permeability recovery rate was higher and the irreversible damage rate was lower along butt cleats. Compared to the cube root of permeability to porosity, a 1/6 power relationship was proved to be closer to the experiment results, the new relationship had the highest fit level in the face cleat direction, and the lowest fit level in the vertical direction

Seismogram Analysis of Earthquake C060394F,South Java: S-wave Velocity Structure

The S wave velocity structure between the hypocenter of C060394F earthquake,South Java and a series of observatory stations located in Australia and South-East Asia have been investigated through seismogram analysis in the time domain and the three Cartesian components.The synthetic seismogram is constructed from the PREMAN global earth model.Seismogram comparison between the measured and synthetic seismograms shows large discrepancies.A correction to the S wave velocity structure is needed to solve these discrepancies.Seismogram analysis and fitting at the observatory stations located in Australia show a positive anomaly,whereas the stations in South-East Asia show a strong negative anomaly.Vertical anisotropy occurred in the upper mantle layer and earth mantle layers beneath it.The seismogram analysis in the time domain and the three components simultaneously provides a better picture of the earth model,compared to the analysis of the seismogram with arrival time,travel time difference and dispersion analysis.
