The Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion, an experimentally validated empirical relationship, is commonly applied for interpreting the stress directions based on the orientation of the brittle shear fractures. However, the Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion fails to explain the formation of the low-angle normal fault, high-angle reverse fault, and the conjugate strike-slip fault with an obtuse angle in the ~1 direction. Although it is ten years since the Maximum-Effective-Moment (MEM) criterion was first proposed, and increasingly solid evidence in support of it has been obtained from both observed examples in nature and laboratory experiments, it is not yet a commonly accepted model to use to interpret these anti- Mohr-Coulomb features that are widely observed in the natural world. The deformational behavior of rock depends on its intrinsic mechanical properties and external factors such as applied stresses, strain rates, and temperature conditions related to crustal depths. The occurrence of conjugate shear features with obtuse angles of -110~ in the contractional direction on different scales and at different crustal levels are consistent with the prediction of the MEM criterion, therefore -110° is a reliable indicator for deformation localization that occurred at medium-low strain rates at any crustal levels. Since the strain-rate is variable through time in nature, brittle, ductile, and plastic features may appear within the same rock.展开更多

As a kind of dynamic fracturephenomena, rockburst has characteristics of strain localization, which is considered as aone-dimensional shear problem subjected to normal compressive stress and tangential shear stress.The constitutive relation of rock material is bilinear (elastic and strain softening) and sensitiveto shear strain rate. The solutions proposed based on gradient-dependent plasticity show thatintense plastic strain is concentrated in fault band and the thickness of the band depends on thecharacteristic length of rock material. The post-peak stiffness of the fault band was determinedaccording to the constitutive parameters of rock material and shear strain rate. Fault bandundergoing strain softening and elastic rock mass outside the band constitute a system and theinstability criterion of the system was proposed based on energy theory. The criterion depends onthe constitutive relation of rock material, the structural size and the strain rate. The staticresult regardless of the strain rate is the special case of the present analytical solution. Highstrain rate can lead to instability of the system.展开更多

This method uses spatial correlation and temporal correlation simultaneously. Simulation results show that the improved local linear prediction method can effectively make multi-step and one-step prediction of chaotic time series and the multi-step prediction performance and one-step prediction accuracy of the improved local linear prediction method are superior to those of the traditional local linear prediction method.展开更多

文摘频域反射法(frequency domain reflectometry,FDR)是目前电缆缺陷定位的有效方法之一。针对传统FDR的缺陷定位效果受窗函数和干扰项影响大的问题,该文提出一种基于子空间分解的电缆缺陷定位方法,该方法不需要选择窗函数,并且滤除了干扰信号的子空间,因此拥有更好的缺陷定位效果。首先,利用传输线理论研究电缆的反射系数谱,证实了反射系数谱可用于定位电缆缺陷。然后,介绍了子空间分解技术、改进的贝叶斯信息准则(Bayesian information criterion,BIC)及基于密度聚类算法的原理,通过估计反射系数谱中各复指数衰减振荡函数的参数,并滤除相关干扰,提出了新的电缆缺陷定位谱图。最后,根据所提方法,对200m仿真电缆模型与500m真实电缆开展缺陷定位。结果表明,该定位谱图可准确地定位电缆中缺陷,并且干扰项较少,较大程度地提高FDR方法对电缆缺陷的定位正确率。
