Numerical analysis of stability for mined-out area in multi-field coupling

There were differences between real boundary and blast hole controlling boundary of irregular mined-out area in underground metal mines. There were errors in numerical analysis of stability for goaf, if it was analyzed as regular 3D mined-out area and the influence of coupling stress-seepage-disturbance was not considered adequately. Taking a lead zinc mine as the background, the model was built by the coupling of Surpac and Midas-Gts based on the goaf model precisely measured by CMS.According to seepage stress fundamental equations based on the equivalent continuum mechanical and the theory about equivalent load of dynamic disturbance in deep-hole blasting, the stability of mined-out area under multi-field coupling of stress-seepage-dynamic disturbance was numerically analyzed. The results show that it is more consistent between the numerical analysis model based on the real model of irregular 3D shape goaf and the real situation, which could faithfully reappear the change rule of stress–strain about the surrounding rock under synthetic action of blasting dynamic loading and the seepage pressure. The mined-out area multi-field coupling formed by blasting excavation is stable. Based on combination of the advantages of the CMS,Surpac and Midas-Gts, and fully consideration of the effects of multi-field coupling, the accurate and effective way could be provided for numerical analysis of stability for mined-out area.

A Cryptographic Scheme Based on Spatiotemporal Chaos of Coupled Map Lattices

We propose a cryptographic scheme based on spatiotemporal chaos of coupled map lattices （CIVIL） ,which is based on one-time pad. The structure of the cryptosystem determines that the progress in decryption implies the progress in exploring the dynamical behavior of spatiotemporal chaos in CML. A part of the initial condition of CML is used as a secret key, and the recovery of the secret key by exhaustive search is impossible due to the sensitivity to the initial condition in spatiotemporal chaos system. Specially the software implementation of the scheme is easy.

Thermal Anomalies and Earthquakes:Evidence from Wenchuan,China

Earthquake prediction is a difficult problem in Earth sciences.Unsuccessful predictions one after another urged people to explore more synthetic and comprehensive methods for earthquake prediction.The Lithosphere-Atmosphere-Ionosphere(LAI)coupling theory pays great attention to the processes taking place within the near ground layer of atmosphere.It has achieved great results recently,and can enlighten us about the nature of an earthquake's precursor.Based on the NCEP reanalysis dataset,this paper attempts to track the anomalies of the surface's upward long wave radiation flux(ULWRF),the temperature at the depth of 10cm～20cm below ground surface layer(BGL)and the air temperature at 2 meters above ground surface(AIR)around the time of the strong Wenchuan earthquake.Thermal anomalies were observed before and after May 12,2008,the time of the Wenchuan earthquake.Perhaps the thermal anomaly that occurred prior to the earthquake can be taken as indicators of the earthquake,but in view of the complexity of the earthquake phenomena,using thermal anomaly as a precursor should be done with caution.

空中水资源及其降水转化分析

本文在回顾空中水资源利用的愿景和相关研究成果、分析空中水资源的概念和内涵的基础上,定义了白水,用以代表空中水资源.白水指的是通过地表某处上空的统计意义上具备降水潜力的水物质通量.白水和其他水资源一样,一般表述为年度水量,其本质是水物质的更新通量.将空中水物质的水平运动垂直积分投影到地表二维空间,对于地表任一点,白水的量纲为[L^2 T^(-1)],与地表水资源常用的[L^3 T^(-1)]不同.将某地的降水通量与相应时段的白水的比值定义为白水降水效率,量纲为L^(-1),代表白水每运动单位距离产生的降水量占其自身的比例.将白水概念扩展到地表流域,则可通过沿流域边界积分得到进入某一流域的白水,量纲为[L^3 T^(-1)].将该流域上空全部白水输送路径上的降水效率沿各自路径积分后加权平均,即得到流域的白水降水转化率(无量纲)为流域内的降水占进入该流域的白水的比例,可以采用降水量除以白水与径流量的1/2之差来近似计算.本文采用再分析数据研究了我国大陆附近的白水降水效率的空间分布特征,并选择长江、黄河、珠江、三江源流域开展相关特征参量对比分析.结果表明,白水降水效率是反映气候和地理条件的降水转化能力的公允度量,可直接用于不同地区的对比分析;流域的白水降水转化率可用于分析流域空地水资源循环中的数量关系.研究和评估白水及其降水转化特征,是空地水资源耦合分析及空中水资源开发利用的基础.通过技术手段提高局部地区的白水降水转化率,并与地表水利工程联合调控,有望实现一定规模的空地水资源耦合利用,是水资源开源的新机遇.
