基于热力耦合数值模拟的膨胀土深基坑变形特性研究

膨胀土的胀缩特性、裂隙性、超固结性常对膨胀土地层中的工程建设造成不良影响,以热-力耦合数值模拟为基础对膨胀土深基坑开挖过程中的受力变形特性进行研究。首先由室内试验测定原状膨胀土的膨胀力,然后以FLAC3D热-力耦合模块模拟一环刀土样推导目标膨胀力下的膨胀系数,最后以扬州某膨胀土深基坑为例,计算上述膨胀系数下深基坑在开挖过程中的受力变形特性,并与基坑实测数据进行了对比。结果表明：（1）围护结构侧向变形轮廓线为鱼腹型,最大侧向变形位置发生在开挖面以上一定范围内,最大侧向变形值大致为（0.15%～0.30%）H;（2）立柱隆沉曲线平缓,数值大致处于（-0.04%～0.14%）H;（3）墙后地表沉降槽呈型,影响范围达到了2.5He以外,最大地表沉降值为vm=（0.05%～0.15%）H,最大地表沉降与最大围护结构侧向变形的关系约为vm=（0.33～0.56）hm;（4）土压力值均处于视土压力包络线范围以内,大致为1.07He。     

A SPATIALLY-VARYING PARAMETER MODEL OF AFDC PARTICIPATION: EMPIRICAL ANALYSIS USING THE EXPANSION METHOD*

Spatial variation in the importance of determinants of participation in the Aid to Families with Dependent Children program (AFDC) is investigated for the U.S. Casetti's Expansion Method is applied to the two-dimensional space domain by making the model's parameters a function of state x–y centroids. The spatially-varying parameter model suggests that the black population's association with participation is lowest in the Southeast and Northwest and greatest in the Southwest and Northeast.

伸缩缝刚度对大跨度悬索桥动力特性的影响

伸缩缝作为大跨度桥梁与引桥之间的重要连接构件,其抗推刚度及可能存在的变异性对主桥及引桥动力特性的影响不可忽略。本文建立了大跨度悬索桥及引桥的有限元模型,采用弹簧单元模拟加劲梁与引桥箱梁之间的伸缩缝,分析伸缩缝刚度对悬索桥及引桥自振特性及其地震响应的影响规律。分析结果表明:伸缩缝刚度对加劲梁的横弯振型、竖弯与纵飘耦合振型的频率有明显的影响;伸缩缝刚度的变化会导致加劲梁与引桥的振型相互耦合,同时这些振型的频率发生相应的突变,当伸缩缝刚度较大时,加劲梁两个竖弯与纵飘的耦合振型解耦成为独立的竖弯和纵飘振型;当引桥与悬索桥加劲梁的纵飘振型发生耦合时,在纵向和竖向地震作用下的悬索桥及引桥的地震响应达到最小。伸缩缝刚度对悬索桥动力特性影响的分析可为悬索桥的模态参数确认、损伤识别、抗震性能分析提供有价值的借鉴。     

Surface gravity wave interaction with elastic bottom

In the present paper, a hydroelastic model is developed to deal with surface gravity wave interaction with an elastic bed based on the small amplitude water wave theory and plate deflection in finite water depth. The elastic bottom bed is modelled as a thin elastic plate and is based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam equation. The wave characteristics in the presence of the elastic bed is analyzed in both the cases of deep and shallow water waves. Further, the linearized long wave equation is generalized to include bottom flexibility. A generalized expansion formula for the velocity potential is derived to deal with the boundary value problems associated with surface gravity waves having an elastic bed. The utility of the expansion formula is illustrated by demonstrating specific physical problems which will play significant role in the analysis of wave structure interaction problems. Behavior of the wave spectra are discussed in the case of closed basin having a free surface and an elastic bottom topography.     

On the equation of state for the Λ field

The recently detected accelerated expansion of the Universe is related to the existence of a new type of matter called the Λ field or quintessence. Constraints were obtained on its equation of state from the absence of clustering of this matter on scales much smaller than the cosmological horizon. The question of how these constraints affect the possibility of fitting the accelerated expansion by such cosmological models as the Chaplygin gas model is discussed.     

Influence of rainfall on the deformation and stability of a slope in overconsolidated clays: a case study

The behaviour of an instrumented unstable slope in a profile of weathered overconsolidated clay has been analysed. Available field investigation data and laboratory tests were integrated in a coupled hydromechanical model of the slope. Particular attention was given to the unsaturated soil conditions above the water table and to the influence of the rainfall record. Recorded pore-water pressures helped to identify the hydrogeological conditions of the slope. The coupled model was used to compute slope deformations and the variation of safety with time. Actual rainfall records were also integrated into the analysis. Comparison of measurements and calculations illustrate the nature of the slope instability and the complex relationships between mechanical and hydraulic factors. Electronic Publication     

FEATURES OF TECTONIC LANDFORM OF FAULT BLOCKS IN SOUTH CHINA COASTAL AREA

In this paper, the South China coastal area is divided into several fault block areas (first class), sub-areas (second class) and mini-areas (third class) based on their dynamic signs, heridity, uniformity, paricu-larity and the mode of action of tectonic stress. Their tectonic geomorphological features are elaborated and the amplitude as well as the rate of relative motion since the end of the late Pleistocene epoch are estimated from 14C data of the samples which fundamentally repres
