文摘Using high-resolution observations,mesoscale simulations,and idealized experiments,this study investigates the mechanisms governing an episode of orographic convection initiation(CI)during the North China Heavy Rainfall Experiment.On 4 August 2024,repeated CI occurred over the eastern slopes of the Taihang Mountains in the late afternoon,subsequently enhancing an upstream downhill convective storm.Wind profiler radar data and dense automatic weather stations reveal that CI was supported by strengthening southeasterly upslope winds.These winds primarily resulted from the migration of the mountain-plain solenoid and the mountainward-propagating outflow from a convective cold pool over the plain,with sensitivity experiments showing the latter contributed roughly 22%of the wind strength.The upslope flows gradually transported unstable air from the plain to the slope,fostering CI.Mesoscale simulations further highlight the key role of orographic waves near the mountain ridge,which generated strong downslope winds.The near-surface convergence between downslope and upslope flows,combined with wave-induced divergence aloft,produced deep ascent over the slope.Removing mountain ridges weakened wave strength and reduced downslope wind speeds by~8 m s^(-1).Without orographic heating in the idealized simulation(i.e.,no mountain-plain solenoid),only strong wave descent occurred below 2km,inhibiting CI.These findings underscore the critical interplay among plain convection,orographic waves,and the mountain-plain solenoid,offering new insight into the processes controlling orographic CI in North China.

文摘The Global Governance Initiative(GGI)is another important public good that China has provided for the international community,following the Global Development Initiative,the Global Security Initiative,and the Global Civilization Initiative.As a sub-field of global governance,global climate governance has hitherto progressed slowly,exhibiting growing deficits in discourse,institutions,and actions.The governance paradigm is in desperate need of revamping,especially under the guidance of an innovative initiative.At the conceptual level,the GGI has gone beyond the Western governance discourse by outlining the institutional starting point,foundations of legitimacy,action orientations,ultimate goals,and practical support for good global climate governance through its five core concepts.At the practical level,the spillover effects of China's achievements in climate governance and the collective rise of the Global South have created favorable conditions,domestically and internationally,for the GGI to lead the way forward toward good global climate governance.However,the fact that the international political and economic order remains unjust and inequitable indicates that this will inevitably be a long-term process replete with rivalries in the pursuit of breakthroughs.

文摘Hard carbon is a vital anode material for sodium-ion batteries;however,the nonuniform growth of solid electrolyte interphase(SEI)film substantially diminishes its initial coulombic efficiency(ICE)and cycle life.The chemical and morphological properties of surface highly influence the electrode/electrolyte interfacial reactions.In this study,we have tuned orbital hybridization states forming an interface enriched with sp^(2) hybridized carbon(sp^(2)-C),which decreases the binding energy to solvent molecules and inhibits excessive solvent decomposition during SEI formation.Benefiting from successfully constructed inorganic-rich SEI,the ICE increased to 91%and sodium storage capacity reached 346 mAh/g.Besides,the capacity retention rate was 90.7%after 700 cycles at 1 A/g higher than pristine electrode(83.8%).

文摘The stress-strain behavior of calcareous sand is significantly influencedby particle breakage(B)and initial relative density(Dri),but few constitutive models consider their combined effects.To bridge this gap,we conducted a series of triaxial tests on calcareous sand with varying Dri and stress paths,examining particle breakage and critical state behavior.Key findingsinclude:(1)At a constant stress ratio(η),B follows a hyperbolic relationship with mean effective stress(p'),and for a given p',B increases proportionally withη;(2)The critical state line(CSL)moves downward with increasing Dri,whereas the critical state friction angle(φcs)decreases with increasing B.Based on these findings,we propose a unifiedbreakage evolution model to quantify particle breakage in calcareous sand under various loading conditions.Integrating this model with the Normal Consolidation Line(NCL)and CSL equations,we successfully simulate the steepening of NCL and CSL slopes as B increases with the onset of particle breakage.Furthermore,we quantitatively evaluate the effect of B onφcs.Finally,within the framework of Critical State Soil Mechanics and Hypoplasticity theory,we develop a hypoplastic model incorporating B and Dri.The model is validated through strong agreement with experimental results across various initial relative densities,stress paths and drainage conditions.

文摘Ice lens initiation is the core issue in understanding the dynamic process of frost heave.However,there are still limitations to find an adequate criterion for describing the formation of ice lens.A series of one-dimensional freezing tests is designed using the particle image velocimetry(PIV)method to monitor the frost heave and ice lens formation.The results show that the conventional parameters,such as displacement and velocity,cannot be used to track the ice lens formation,while the strain can be employed to detect the ice lens formation and investigate the freezing change patterns.This study proposes strain as a new criterion for assessing ice lens initiation,applicable across various soil types and freezing conditions(constant freezing and ramped freezing).The strain change in the region where the ice lens forms is the largest during the freezing process.Additionally,strain curves at the top of the soil samples can reveal different freezing patterns and distinguish the first and second frost heave stages.This newly developed technology enables continuous,non-destructive monitoring of ice lens initiation across diverse conditions and soil types,enhancing data visualization and three-dimensional modeling of freezing parameters while improving traditional methods by directly measuring velocity and strain in frost heave investigations.The study is expected to enhance the research of ice lens criterion and provide a new perspective for monitoring the freezing process.

文摘The influence of different solution and aging conditions on the microstructure,impact toughness,and crack initiation and propagation mechanisms of the novel α+β titanium alloy Ti6422 was systematically investigated.By adjusting the furnace cooling time after solution treatment and the aging temperature,Ti6422 alloy samples were developed with a multi-level lamellar microstructure,in-cluding microscaleαcolonies and α_(p) lamellae,as well as nanoscale α_(s) phases.Extending the furnace cooling time after solution treatment at 920℃ for 1 h from 240 to 540 min,followed by aging at 600℃ for 6 h,increased the α_(p) lamella content,reduced the α_(s) phase content,expanded theαcolonies and α_(p) lamellae size,and improved the impact toughness from 22.7 to 53.8 J/cm^(2).Additionally,under the same solution treatment,raising the aging temperature from 500 to 700℃ resulted in a decrease in the α_(s) phase content and a growth in the thickness of the α_(p) lamella and α_(s) phase.The impact toughness increased significantly with these changes.Samples with high α_(p) lamellae content or large α_(s) phase size exhibited high crack initiation and propagation energies.Impact deformation caused severe kinking of the α_(p) lamellae in crack initiation and propagation areas,leading to a uniform and high-density kernel average misorientation(KAM)distribu-tion,enhancing plastic deformation coordination and uniformity.Moreover,the multidirectional arrangement of coarserαcolonies and α_(p) lamellae continuously deflect the crack propagation direction,inhibiting crack propagation.

文摘To investigate the fracture initiation and propagation behavior of fractures in tight sandstone under the supercritical CO_(2)(SCCO_(2))shock fracturing,laboratory fracturing experiments were conducted using a true-triaxial-like SCCO_(2)shock fracturing system.Computed tomography(CT)scanning and three-dimensional fracture reconstruction were employed to elucidate the effects of shock pressure,pore pressure,and in-situ stress on fracture characteristics.In addition,nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR)transverse relaxation time spectra were used to assess the internal damage induced by SCCO_(2)shock fracturing.The results indicate that,compared with conventional hydraulic fracturing and SCCO_(2)quasi-static fracturing,SCCO_(2)shock fracturing facilitates multidirectional fracture initiation and the formation of complex fracture networks.Increasing shock pressure more readily activates bedding-plane weaknesses,with main and subsidiary fractures interweaving into a dense fracture network.Under the same impulse intensity,elevated pore pressure reduces the effective normal stress and alters stress-wave scattering paths,thereby inducing more branch fractures and enhancing fracture complexity.An increase in differential in-situ stress promotes fracture propagation along the direction of the maximum principal stress,reduces branching,and simplifies fracture morphology.With increasing SCCO_(2)shock pressure,pore volume and connectivity generally increase:small-to-medium pores primarily respond through increased number and enhanced connectivity;when the shock pressure rises to 40-45 MPa,crack coalescence generates larger pores and fissures,which play a dominant role in improving flow pathways and effective storage space,ultimately forming a multiscale pore-fracture network.

文摘After coal seam mining,the overlying rock strata above the goaf are subjected to long-term stress and eventually undergo failure.Under mining-induced disturbances,the strata develop fractures at various angles,which significantly influence failure modes and the morphology of gas flow channels.This study employed multistage loading experiments,numerical simulations,three-dimensional reconstruction,and image recognition to investigate the fragmentation process of rocks with different initial fracture angles under multistage loading.The results show that variations in the initial fracture angle affect the transmission of contact forces among rock particles.As the angle increases,the transmission pattern shifts from a uniform distribution to one extending along the direction of the fracture.Rocks with small initial fracture angles tend to experience tensile-dominated failure,with most of the material subjected to longitudinal loading,resulting in reduced strength.Fractures propagate from the central region of the initial fracture,producing a complex internal fracture network.The proportion of fracture channels varies considerably across regions,creating multiple zones of velocity variation in the gas flow.In contrast,rocks with large initial fracture angles are more susceptible to shear failure,with the primary load-bearing zones aligned along the inclined fracture direction.As a result,the influence on surrounding regions is limited,improving the rock's load-bearing capacity under multistage loading.In these cases,the distribution and proportion of fracture channels become more uniform,promoting more stable gas flow within the channels.Overall,these findings provide theoretical insights into how initial fracture angles govern rock failure patterns and gas flow characteristics.

文摘The stability of rock slopes is frequently controlled by the initiation and propagation of inherent dominant cracks.This study systematically investigated these processes in valley slopes by combining fracture-mechanics analysis with transparent soil model tests.An analytical expression for the stress field at the dominant crack tip was derived from the slope stress distribution by superposing the corresponding stress intensity factors(SIFs).The theoretical predictions were then validated against observations from transparent soil model tests.The influences of slope angle(β),crack inclination angle(α),crack position parameter(b),and crack length parameter(h)on crack initiation and propagation were quantified.The results indicated that:(1)cracks at the slope crest tended to propagate in shear mode,and the shear crack initiation angle(θ_(s))was approximately 8°.Cracks at the slope toe might propagate in either tensile or shear mode.(2)θ_(s) at the slope crest increased withβ,b,and l,and decreased withα.The maximum change inθ_(s) induced by the considered parameters was approximately 30°.(3)The tensile crack initiation angle(θ_(t))at the slop toe decreased withβ,α,and l,while the influence of b was comparatively minor.The maximum change inθ_(t) caused by individual parameters ranged approximately from 25°to 60°.Predicted crack propagation modes and directions showed good agreement with experimental results.These findings provide theoretical guidance for stability assessments of valley slopes controlled by dominant crack propagation.

文摘The cemented tailings backfill(CTB)with initial defects is more prone to destabilization damage under the influence of various unfavorable factors during the mining process.In order to investigate its influence on the stability of underground mining engineering,this paper simulates the generation of different degrees of initial defects inside the CTB by adding different contents of air-entraining agent(AEA),investigates the acoustic emission RA/AF eigenvalues of CTB with different contents of AEA under uniaxial compression,and adopts various denoising algorithms(e.g.,moving average smoothing,median filtering,and outlier detection)to improve the accuracy of the data.The variance and autocorrelation coefficients of RA/AF parameters were analyzed in conjunction with the critical slowing down(CSD)theory.The results show that the acoustic emission RA/AF values can be used to characterize the progressive damage evolution of CTB.The denoising algorithm processed the AE signals to reduce the effects of extraneous noise and anomalous spikes.Changes in the variance curves provide clear precursor information,while abrupt changes in the autocorrelation coefficient can be used as an auxiliary localization warning signal.The phenomenon of dramatic increase in the variance and autocorrelation coefficient curves during the compression-tightening stage,which is influenced by the initial defects,can lead to false warnings.As the initial defects of the CTB increase,its instability precursor time and instability time are prolonged,the peak stress decreases,and the time difference between the CTB and the instability damage is smaller.The results provide a new method for real-time monitoring and early warning of CTB instability damage.

文摘To investigate the long-term stability of soft-hard interbedded rock masses with initial damage induced by earthquakes and periodic drying and wetting,this study prepared samples with different initial damage through cyclic loading and unloading(CLU)experiments followed by cyclic drying and wetting(CDW)experiments,and finally conducted creep experiments.The study analyzed the effects of initial damage on creep mechanical behavior,crack evolution,and explored failure precursor information,revealing the damage failure mechanisms.The results show that the structural characteristics of the rock mass control its macroscopic failure mode.Initial damage promotes microcrack development,influences the fracture mode,and increases the proportion of high-frequency(200−280 kHz)acoustic emission events during creep.Meanwhile,initial damage exacerbates creep characteristics,increasing the creep rate,shortening total creep failure time,and reducing long-term strength.The damage failure is attributed to:the generation of internal cracks and pores in the rock caused by CLU;mineral hydrolysis and expansion-contraction due to CDW,resulting in weakened intergranular cementation;and full development of cracks and pores under creep stress.Additionally,the deformation difference coefficient and the coefficient of variation of RA/AF values can serve as precursor indicators for creep failure.
