Positive results have been achieved in submarine geological research, particularly in the investigation of marine gas hydrates. However, the amount of traveltime difference information is reduced for the velocity analysis under conditions of a shorter spread length, thus leading to poorer focusing of the velocity spectrum energy group and a lower accuracy of the velocity analysis. It is thus currently debatable whether the velocity analysis accuracy of short-arrangement multichannel seismic detection technology is able to meet the requirements of practical application in natural gas hydrate exploration. Therefore, in this study the bottom boundary of gas hydrates(Bottom Simulating Reflector, BSR) is used to conduct numerical simulation to discuss the accuracy of the velocity analysis related to such technology. Results show that a higher dominant frequency and smaller sampling interval are not only able to improve the seismic resolution, but they also compensate for the defects of the short-arrangement, thereby improving the accuracy of the velocity analysis. In conclusion, the accuracy of the velocity analysis in this small-scale, high-resolution, multi-channel seismic detection technology meets the requirements of natural gas hydrate exploration.展开更多

Based on natural frequency and static displacement, the study defines and considers damage criteria such as 1D and 2D single and fusion load cases. To overcome the lack of sufficient information on damage identification in large-scale structures, the authors consider multiple responses to and objective descriptions of uncertainties and various criteria.According to the finite element model and the structural responses described and measured, the fusion methods and damage criteria treat uncertainty as non-probability intervals. As long as we know the bounds of uncertain parameters, the intervals of the elemental stiffness parameters in undamaged and damaged models can be obtained by interval technology. Two numerical examples—a damage-criteria numerical example and a 5-span with 25-bar truss structure in a space solar power station—are proposed. Both examples indicate the veracity of the interval method.展开更多

Microseismic monitoring is a new application technique for investigating microcrackings in rock slopes. A micro- seismic monitoring network has been systematically used to monitor rock masses unloading relaxation due to continuous exca- vation of rock slope and stress redistribution caused by dam impoundment later on, and to identify and delineate the potential slippage regions since May, 2010. An important database of seismic source locations is available. The analysis of microseismic events showed a particular tempo-spatial distribution. Seismic events predominantly occurred around the upstream slope of 1180 m elevation, especially focusing on the hanging wall of fault XL316-1. Such phenomenon was interpreted by numerical modeling using RFPA-SRM code (realistic failure process analysis-strength reduction method). By comparing microseismic activity and results of numerical simulation with in site observation and conventional measurements results, a strong correlation can he obtained between seismic source locations and excavation-induced stress distribution in the working areas. The volume of influence of the rock slope is thus determined. Engineering practices show microseismic monitoring can accurately diagnose magnitude, intensity and associated tempo-spatial characteristics of tectonic activities such as faults and unloading zones. The integrated technique combining seismic monitoring with numerical modeling, as well as in site observation and conventional surveying, leads to a better understanding of the internal effect and relationship between microseismic activity and stress field in the right bank slope from different perspectives.展开更多
