It would be problematic, however, to extend these approaches to the simulation of the slide, collapse and disintegration of the deposits under seismic loading. Contrary to this, a discrete element method （DEM） provides a means to consider large displacement and rotation of the non-continuum. To take the advantages of both methods of continuum and non- continuum analyses, seismic responses of a slope covered by deposits are studied by coupling a twodimensional （a-D） finite difference method and a 2-D DEM, with the bedrock being modelled by the finite difference grids and the deposits being represented by disks. A smooth transition across the boundaries of the continuous/discontinuous domains is obtained by imposing the compatibility condition and equilibrium condition along their interfaces. In the course of computation, the same time-step value is chosen for both continuous and discontinuous domains. The free-field boundaries are adopted for lateral grids of bedrock domain to eliminate the radiation damping effect. When the static equilibrium under gravity load is obtained, dynamic calculation begins under excitation of the seismic wave input from the continuum model bottom. In this way, responses to the earthquake of a slope covered by deposits are analyzed dynamically. Combined with field monitoring data, deformation and stability of the slope are discussed. The effects of the relevant parameters of spectrum characteristic, duration, andpeak acceleration of seismic waves are further investigated and explained from the simulations.展开更多

The classical integral transform technique, potential theory and Lamè resolution are used to derive the solutions of Navier equations. The higher precision inversion computation is introduced to solve the linear equations. Comparing with acoustic radiation of one-layer cylindrical shell, the influence of thickness, mass density, dilatational wave loss factor and Young's modulus of damping material and circumferential mode number of the cylindrical shell on the insertion loss is concluded. The theoretical model in the paper can be used to deal with the arbitrary thickness and any frequency of the coated layer in dynamic problem. The conclusions may be of theoretical reference to the application of damping material to noise and vibration control of submarines and underwater pipes.展开更多

Then, the viscous-spring artificial boundary(VSAB) is adopted to simulate the radiation damping of their infinite foundations, and based on the Marc software, a simplified seismic motion input method is presented by the equivalent nodal loads. Finally, based on the practical engineering of a RCC gravity dam, effects of radiation damping and construction interfaces on the dynamic characteristics of dams are investigated in detail. Analysis results show that dynamic response of the RCC gravity dam significantly reduces about 25% when the radiation damping of infinite foundation is considered. Hot interfaces and the normal cold interfaces have little influence on the dynamic response of the RCC gravity dam.However, nonlinear fracture along the cold interfaces at the dam heel will occur under the designed earthquake if the cold interfaces are combined poorly. Therefore, to avoid the fractures along the construction interfaces under the potential super earthquakes,combination quality of the RCC layers should be significantly ensured.展开更多

The IR （infrared） spectra of initial and irradiated samples of tar fractions of bituminous oil are compared. The kinetics of radiation chemical yields of gas products at the irradiation of bituminous oil and its tar fraction have been investigated. Irradiation is conducted in the gamma-ray source of isotope 60Co at the dose rate of P = 0.27 Gy/s and absorbed doses D = 5-163 kGy. It is found that in comparison with oil faction, tar fraction of bituminous oil has a high resistance to radiation.展开更多

Based on a conservative range of the symmetry energy slope constrained by the experiment and theoretical analysis, a constraint on the frequency and damping time of the gravitational radiation from the f-mode in neutron star is obtained. It is also shown that a higher symmetry energy slope corresponds with a smaller frequency and a longer damping time. Meanwhile, a new set of parameters is given to present the universal properties of the scaled frequency and damping time.展开更多
