Some models predict that the seismic energy remains almost constant or becomes even stronger with increasing distance at this distance, while other models hold that it decreases with increased distance. The divergence lies mainly in whether SmS is stronger than direct S and surface waves at this distance. With the MsS. 9 earthquake sequence in the Yingjiang region of Yunnan Province as an example, we demonstrate that SmS is always 2 - 5 times stronger than direct S waves around the epicentral distance of 100km （which is the post-critical distance for S in this region）. Study of synthetic seismograms suggest that crustal structure has an important effect on the amplitude of post-critical SmS, with simple crust producing strong SmS. This preliminary study confirms that in China, SmS also plays an important role on ground motion at distances around 100km, which demands more studies of post-critical SmS.展开更多
Mg-6Al-2Sr alloys with different Sm contents(0%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, mass fraction) were prepared by melting and casting method.

The effects of Sm on the microstructure and mechanical properties of as-cast Mg-6Al-2Sr alloys were studied by optical microscope, scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive spectrometer, transmission electron microscope, X-ray diffraction and tensile test. The results show that the microstructure of as-cast Mg-6Al-2Sr alloy is composed of α-Mg, Mg_(17)Al_(12), Mg_(13)Al_(3)Sr and lamellar acicular Al_(4)Sr phase. After adding Sm element, granular block Al2Sm phase appears in the grain. With the increase of Sm content, the discontinuous long strip reticular Mg_(17)Al_(12)phase and the lamellar acicular Al4Sr phase gradually decrease, and the Al_(2)Sm phase increases and distributes more dispersedly, so the alloy microstructure is continuously refined. The average grain size of the alloys decreases at first and then increases with the increase of Sm content. When the Sm content is 1.5 wt%, the average grain size reaches the minimum value of 94.6 μm. With the increase of Sm content, the mechanical properties of the alloy at room temperature first increase and then decrease. When the Sm content is 1.5 wt%, the alloy has the best comprehensive mechanical properties at room temperature.展开更多
