We investigate the escape behavior of systems governed by the one-dimensional nonlinear Kramers' equation δW/δt = -vδW/δx + (f'(x)/m)(δW/δv) + γδ(vW)/δv + (γκBT/m)(δ2W^μ/δv^2), where f(...We investigate the escape behavior of systems governed by the one-dimensional nonlinear Kramers' equation δW/δt = -vδW/δx + (f'(x)/m)(δW/δv) + γδ(vW)/δv + (γκBT/m)(δ2W^μ/δv^2), where f(x) is a metastable potential and μ an anomalous exponent. We obtain an expression for the transition state theory escape rate, whose predictions are in good agreement with numerical simulations. The results exhibit the anomalies due to the nonlinearity in W that the TST rate grows with T and drops as μbecomes large at a fixed T. Indeed, particles in the subdiffusive media (μ 〉 1) can escape over the barrier only when T is above a critical value, while there does not exist this confinement in the superdiffusive media (μ 〈 1).展开更多

The result shows that the abnormal fluid response has a certain relationship with earthquake size and epicenter distance. The greater the earthquake, and the closer it is to the epicenter from the observatory, the more sensitive the response will be to fluid anomalies. Abnormal Helium release was first observed before both strong earthquakes in the fluid precursor observation. The release intensity is related to earthquake magnitude; the larger the magnitude, the stronger the abnormal changes. The large change in He release in a short period after the Wenchuan earthquake may be related to the continuous activity of strong aftershocks and the structural adjustment after the earthquake. Helium release increased significantly after both earthquakes, as contributed by the abnormal deep-sited Helium release. However, this process may be connected to the annual change from July to September or the hot-reservoir type gas release in the Wuliying well. In the earthquake preparation process, a large number of deep-derived Helium is released into the geothermal system and the entire composition is changed. Temporally, this gas release appears later than fault-type gas release, and the disappearance time of this anomaly is also much later. The response difference of the fluid precursor to the two strong earthquakes may be related to differences of deep structural setting and dynamic mechanism. It also shows there is a stronger correlation between Wenchuan M8.0 earthquake in the North-South Seismic Belt and North China region than the Yushu M7.1 earthquake in the internal Qinghai-Tibetan plateau. Helium gas can be a sensitive indicator for monitoring abnormal deep-gas activity of the region where the observation station is located. Hence, observation and research should be strengthened in the future.展开更多

Research in atmospheric turbulence is actually the investigation of the atmospheric refractive index. The atmospheric structure constant of refractive index, C n 2 , is an important parameter denoting atmospheric turbulence. In this paper, C n 2 is measured during the day and at night and in all four seasons using a high sensitivity micro-thermal meter QHTP-2. The vertical profile of C n 2 in Hefei (0-30 km) is investigated by the analysis of experimental data. The average profile of C n 2 in Hefei exhibits conspicuous day and night differences with increased altitude. The distribution of log(C n 2 ) is nearly normal and has conspicuous seasonal differences.展开更多

The analysis of digital elevation and remote sensing imaging shows that the east segment of Lintan-Dangchang fault is still active and the main thrust feature of the fault switches to left lateral slip. With the field research of intensity and damage, several abnormal areas of degree VIII spread in the isoseismal line of degree VII and some abnormal areas of degree VII spread in the isoseismal line of degree VI. These abnormal areas are distributed along the hanging wall of the fault in a width of 2km. The analysis based on the remote sensing and digital elevation model shows that the segment of the Lintan-Dangchang fault south of Minxian mainly slips in left literal. The fault movement made the soil soft in the fault zone. The earthquake motion propagated along the fault zone. Therefore the strong earthquake motion caused foundation failure in the soft soil along the fault zone and the abnormal intense areas of disaster formed.展开更多

文摘We investigate the escape behavior of systems governed by the one-dimensional nonlinear Kramers' equation δW/δt = -vδW/δx + (f'(x)/m)(δW/δv) + γδ(vW)/δv + (γκBT/m)(δ2W^μ/δv^2), where f(x) is a metastable potential and μ an anomalous exponent. We obtain an expression for the transition state theory escape rate, whose predictions are in good agreement with numerical simulations. The results exhibit the anomalies due to the nonlinearity in W that the TST rate grows with T and drops as μbecomes large at a fixed T. Indeed, particles in the subdiffusive media (μ 〉 1) can escape over the barrier only when T is above a critical value, while there does not exist this confinement in the superdiffusive media (μ 〈 1).
