The baked margin produced by contact metamorphism of syenite against a dyke in the Houshihushan ring complex, Shanhaiguan, Hebei Province, China, is an unusual feature caused by the dyke's role as a feeder to a family of cone-sheets.展开更多

Three metamorphic stages are recognized in terms of petrography, mineral chemistry and geothermobarometry . The first alhite-amphibole stage was of greenschist facies metamorphism with typical mineral assemblage of actinolite+epidote+chlorite+albite ; the pressure and temperature conditions were equal to or lower than 500MPa and about 400 ℃ .The second prograde eclogitic garnet-amphibole stage was of amphibole-eclogite fades metamorphism with typical mineral assemblage of garnet+hornblende± clinopyroxene+ruffle without ptagioclase ,the pressure condition was at least 1000- 1200MPa and the temperature about 600 ℃ .The third retrograde epidote-amphibole stage was of epidote-amphibolite fecies with assemblage of plagioclase+hornblende+epidote+ilmenite/titanite , the temperature was 500-600 ℃ and the pressure from 800MPa down to 500MPa .All three stages took place in one single tectonothermal event called Jinningian movement at about 1000Ma .The p-T path shows a hairpin shape and thus indicates a metamorphism in the sobduction environment. The metamorphk processes of the garnet- amphibole rocks thus provides a significant evidence for the pbte tectonic movement prevailing in the late Middle Proterozoic period.展开更多

As a consequence, they only apply when the rock mass is homogeneous and so exclude many cases of practical interest. We describe a robust and fast numerical technique that solves the tunnel unloading problem and estimates the ground reaction curve for a cylindrical cavity excavated in a rock mass with properties depending on the radial coordinate, where the solution is no longer self-similar. The solution is based on a continuation-like approach(associated with the unloading and with the incremental formulation of the elasto-plastic behavior), fnite element spatial discretization and a combination of explicit sub-stepping schemes and implicit techniques to integrate the constitutive law, so as to tackle the diffculties associated with both strong strain-softening and elasto-brittle behaviors. The developed algorithm is used for two practical ground reaction curve computation applications. The frst application refers to a tunnel surrounded by an aureole of material damaged by blasting and the second to a tunnel surrounded by a ring-like zone of reinforced(rock-bolted) material.展开更多
