It conducts a uniaxial graded loading creep test on yellow sandstone under different pre-peak unloading and wetting-drying cycles. The improved nonlinear Nishihara model was obtained by introducing a nonlinear viscous element with an accelerated creep threshold switch. The sensitivity characteristics of the parameters of the improved creep model were analyzed and a nonlinear creep constitutive model was established, considering the unloading-cyclic intrinsic damage induced by water intrusion. The research results show that:(1)With an increase in the unloading point, the porosity of the rock samples initially decreases and then increases. As the number of cyclic water intrusions rises, the porosity of the rock samples gradually increases, reaching a maximum of 9.58% at an unloading point of 70% uniaxial compression stress(0.7 Rc) after five cycles.(2) Total creep deformation increases with the number of cyclic water intrusions;however, with an increase in the unloading ratio, the original samples show an initial decrease, followed by an increase in creep deformation. With a higher unloading ratio and various instances of cyclic water intrusion, the total creep time of the rock samples,compared to the original samples, is reduced by 21.8%and 23.02%. The creep damage mode gradually changes from shear damage to tensile damage.(3) The sensitivity characteristics of the improved creep model parameters show that transient elasticity modulus E1 is affected by the coupling of unloading and cyclic water intrusion. The viscoelastic modulus E2 and viscous coefficient η1 are mainly affected by unloading and cyclic water intrusion.(4) Based on the strain equivalence principle of damage mechanics, the damage treatment of the parameters in the original model is improved to construct a nonlinear creep constitutive model that considers unloading-cyclic water intrusion damage. A parameter inversion and comparison to the traditional Nishihara model reveal an average relative standard deviation of 0.271%,significantly less than 1%, indicating a more accurate nonlinear creep constitutive model. The research results are crucial for analyzing the long-term stability of water-related steep rocky slopes post-excavation and unloading and for preventing and controlling creep-type landslide disasters.展开更多

For this, tensile tests of rocks under high-temperature treatment were conducted with a ϕ75 mm split Hopkinson tension bar (SHTB) to investigate the mesoscopic fracture and damage properties of rock. An improved scanning electron microscopy (SEM) experimental method was used to analyze the tensile fracture surfaces of rock samples. Qualitative and quantitative analyses were performed to assess evolution of mesoscopic damage of heat-damaged rock under tensile loading. A constitutive model describing the mesoscopic fractal damage under thermo-mechanical coupling was established. The results showed that the high temperatures significantly reduced the tensile strength and fracture surface roughness of the red sandstone. The three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of the fracture surface of the samples that experienced tensile failure at 900 °C showed a flat surface. The standard deviation of elevation and slope angle of specimen fracture surface first increased and then decreased with increasing temperature. The threshold for brittle fracture of the heat-damaged red sandstone specimens was 600 °C. Beyond this threshold temperature, local ductile fracture occurred, resulting in plastic deformation of the fracture surface during tensile fracturing. With increase of temperature, the internal meso-structure of samples was strengthened slightly at first and then deteriorated gradually, which was consistent with the change of macroscopic mechanical properties of red sandstone. The mesoscopic characteristics, such as the number, mean side length, maximum area, porosity, and fractal dimension of crack, exhibited an initial decline, followed by a gradual increase. The development of microcracks in samples had significant influence on mesoscopic fractal dimension. The mesoscopic fractal characteristics were used to establish a mesoscopic fractal damage constitutive model for red sandstone, and the agreement between the theoretical and experimental results validated the proposed model.展开更多

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Enzyme-Induced Carbonate Precipitation(EICP)is an innovative technique to improve soil strength and reduce permeability.However,the use of EICP for reinforcing underwater sand beds remains largely unexplored.To advance EICP implementation in various geotechnical applications,this paper develops a model box system to investigate the effectiveness of the EICP technique in reinforcing underwater sand beds.An"injection-extraction"system is designed to facilitate the flow of the EICP solution through underwater sand layers.Key parameters,including conductivity,pH,and Ca^(2+)concentration of the solution,are measured and analyzed.Electrical resistivity tomography(ERT)is utilized to evaluate the reinforcement effect in the underwater sand bed.The permeability of the model is tested to verify the feasibility of EICP technology for strengthening underwater sands.Furthermore,scanning electron microscope(SEM)is performed to investigate the growth mechanisms of calcium carbonate(CaCO_(3))crystals.The results show that the permeability of the model decreases from 1.28×10^(-2)m/s to 9.66×10^(-5)m/s,representing a reduction of approximately three orders of magnitude.This verifies that the EICP technology can greatly reduce the permeability of underwater sand beds.With increasing grouting cycles,the resistivity of the underwater sand initially decreases and then increases.This variation in sand resistivity is significantly influenced by the ion concentration in the solution,resulting in marked differences in resistivity at various depths and positions within the sand.The findings from this study offer a theoretical basis for the application of EICP technology in reinforcing seabed foundations and supporting marine infrastructure such as offshore pipelines,wind turbines,and oil platforms.

文摘Deep rock engineering is affected by coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical(THM)-dynamic fields,necessitating the elucidation of the dynamic mechanical behavior and failure mechanisms.This study utilized a Multi-field Coupled Controlled Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar(MCC-SHPB)system to elucidate the cross-scale dynamic responses of rocks and the boundaries of failure modes under THM coupling.Impact tests were conducted on green sandstone under coupled conditions of temperature(25℃-80℃),confining pressure(0-15 MPa),and seepage water pressure(0-15 MPa).Scanning electron microscopy(SEM)microstructural characterization and COMSOL Multiphysics numerical simulations were conducted,and a dynamic constitutive theoretical framework and failure-prediction methodology were established.We investigated the impact toughness index(I_(t)),dynamic modulus(E_(d)),dynamic triaxial compressive strength(TCS_(d)),fragmentation degree(W),and failure modes of green sandstone under thermo-confining pressure-seepage-impact loading conditions.The key findings reveal that the(I_(t))reflects different energy regulation mechanisms across different confining pressure regimes.Thermal-microcrack interactions dominate at low pressure,and energy absorption prevails at high pressure.A triphasic dynamic modulus model captures stiffness evolution under energy-driven conditions,revealing cross-scale crack nucleation-propagation and fragment reorganization.The TCSd inflection point signifies energy dissipation shifts,causing nonlinear skeleton bearing-capacity degradation.A critical criterion based on the W was established to distinguish between the two failure modes and predict the unstable failure initiation.Numerical simulations were used to elucidate the effects of inertia-dominated crack propagation and stress wave interference,validating the critical criterion and the predictive accuracy of the theoretical model during cross-scale failure.This study provides a theoretical foundation for assessing the dynamic stability of rock masses subjected to multi-field coupling during deep resource exploitation.

文摘The northwestern margin of Junggar Basin is the region with the richest oil sand resources in China.For better understanding the enrichment rules and deployment of exploration and development of regional oil sand,it is of great scientific significance to study the accumulation conditions of oil sand in different strata and mining areas of the Junggar Basin.Through a large number of field investigations,drilling verification and sampling tests,it is found that the oil sand in the region covers an area of 2000 km^(2),with shallow and thick reservoir,and predicted resource of 180 million tons.The oil sand resources are mainly distributed in four geological strata,namely the Middle Triassic Karamay Formation,Early Jurassic Badaowan Formation,Late Jurassic Qigu Formation,and Early Cretaceous Qingshuihe Formation.The reservoir is mainly composed of sandstone with high porosity and permeability,and the reservoir space is mainly intergranular pores with a medium average oil content.The oil sand deposit in the region is a typical destructive oil reservoir.The crude oil in the oil sand layer is degraded and thickened from the deep to the shallow,the content of saturated hydrocarbon decreased,and the content of aromatic hydrocarbon,non-hydrocarbon and asphaltene increased.The oil source comes from the deep Permian hydrocarbon-generating depression.Unconformities,faults and marginal fan delta-braided river depositional systems constitute effective migration and storage systems.Caprocks of the Upper Triassic Baijiantan Formation,Lower Jurassic Sangonghe Formation and Lower Cretaceous Hutubihe Formation were formed by three large scale lake transgressions.The Indosinian,Yanshan and Late Yanshan movements are the main driving forces for the migration of deep oil and gas to the shallow edge to form oil sand deposits.It is considered that the oil sand in the northwestern margin of Junggar Basin is of a slope complex migration type.

文摘The artificial ground-freezing method is the main technical means for the excavation of mines and tunnels through the water-rich sand layer,and the comprehensive understanding of the mechanical properties of frozen saturated sand and the stress-strain relationship under complex stress can provide important guidance.In this study,a series of true triaxial tests of frozen saturated sand samples were conducted.Combined with the test data,the effects of temperature and medium principal stress ratio(b)on the strength and deformation characteristics of frozen saturated sand are discussed.In addition,a cohesion tensor is introduced to the Wu-Lin hypoplastic model.A scalar value is used to characterize the effect of temperature on the strength of frozen soil.The defect that the original model cannot describe the tensile capacity of frozen soil under low stress conditions is clearly solved.In addition,the cumulative deformation state variable is introduced to improve the response performance of the model in triaxial compression tests.The hypoplastic model of frozen soil has shown good performance in simulating triaxial compression tests at different temperatures and medium principal stress ratios.

文摘To address the shortage of characterization scale of field outcrops,we used the characteristics of unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)oblique photography with a wide field of view and a high degree of quantification for image acquisition,data processing,and geological interpretation of the outcrops of the Shaximiao Formation in the Sichuan Basin.We established a 3D digital outcrop model(DOM),which combines the advantages of visualization and digitization the 3D DOM to interpret the characteristics of typical channel sand bodies.Within the study area,we have identified three types of channel deposition:composite channel deposition,crevasse channel deposition,and abandoned channel deposition.Among these,the composite channel deposition was mainly sandstone,the bottom contains conglomerate,with large cross-bedding,and the maximum thickness of the single sand body was 1.96 m.The crevasse channel deposition was mainly fine sandstone and siltstone,with massive bedding and small cross-bedding,and the maximum thickness of the single sand body was 0.64 m.The abandoned channel deposition dominated by mudstone with thin sandstone,the sandstone was mainly lenticular in section,and the maximum thickness of the single sand body was 0.28 m.We identified the depositional model of the studied region,which is dominated by braided river deposition,based on the growth size and correspondence of the sand bodies.The research provides a comparative foundation for the detailed characterisation of the underground reservoir sands found in the Jurassic Shaximiao Formation in the Sichuan Basin.It also serves as a reference for the effective study of UAV oblique photography technology in the field.

文摘A novel fractional elastoplastic constitutive model is proposed to accurately characterize the deformation of sandstone under true-triaxial stress states.This model is founded on the yield function and the fractional flow rule.The yield function includes parameters that govern the evolution of yield surface,enabling an accurate description of three-dimensional stress states.The direction of plastic flow is governed by the two different fractional orders,which are functions of the plastic internal variable.Additionally,a detailed process is proposed for identifying the yield function parameters and fractional orders.Subsequently,the relationship between the fractional order and the direction of plastic flow in the meridian and deviatoric planes is examined,characterized by the dilation angle and the plastic deflection angle,respectively.The non-orthogonal flow rule,also referred to as the fractional flow rule,allows for a border range of plastic deflection and dilation angles compared to the orthogonal flow rule,thereby significantly enhancing its applicability.The validity and accuracy of proposed model are verified by comparing the analytical solution of the constitutive model with the experimental data.A comparison between the non-orthogonal flow rule and orthogonal flow rule is conducted in both the deviatoric and meridian planes.The further comparison of the stress-strain curves for the non-orthogonal and orthogonal flow rules demonstrates the superiority of the fractional constitutive model.

文摘The study focuses on the creep characteristics of significant yellow sandstone for water conservancy, hydropower, and other waterrelated slope excavation unloading rock-graded loading creep characteristics. It conducts a uniaxial graded loading creep test on yellow sandstone under different pre-peak unloading and wetting-drying cycles. The improved nonlinear Nishihara model was obtained by introducing a nonlinear viscous element with an accelerated creep threshold switch. The sensitivity characteristics of the parameters of the improved creep model were analyzed and a nonlinear creep constitutive model was established, considering the unloading-cyclic intrinsic damage induced by water intrusion. The research results show that:(1)With an increase in the unloading point, the porosity of the rock samples initially decreases and then increases. As the number of cyclic water intrusions rises, the porosity of the rock samples gradually increases, reaching a maximum of 9.58% at an unloading point of 70% uniaxial compression stress(0.7 Rc) after five cycles.(2) Total creep deformation increases with the number of cyclic water intrusions;however, with an increase in the unloading ratio, the original samples show an initial decrease, followed by an increase in creep deformation. With a higher unloading ratio and various instances of cyclic water intrusion, the total creep time of the rock samples,compared to the original samples, is reduced by 21.8%and 23.02%. The creep damage mode gradually changes from shear damage to tensile damage.(3) The sensitivity characteristics of the improved creep model parameters show that transient elasticity modulus E1 is affected by the coupling of unloading and cyclic water intrusion. The viscoelastic modulus E2 and viscous coefficient η1 are mainly affected by unloading and cyclic water intrusion.(4) Based on the strain equivalence principle of damage mechanics, the damage treatment of the parameters in the original model is improved to construct a nonlinear creep constitutive model that considers unloading-cyclic water intrusion damage. A parameter inversion and comparison to the traditional Nishihara model reveal an average relative standard deviation of 0.271%,significantly less than 1%, indicating a more accurate nonlinear creep constitutive model. The research results are crucial for analyzing the long-term stability of water-related steep rocky slopes post-excavation and unloading and for preventing and controlling creep-type landslide disasters.

文摘Rock residual strength,as an important input parameter,plays an indispensable role in proposing the reasonable and scientific scheme about stope design,underground tunnel excavation and stability evaluation of deep chambers.Therefore,previous residual strength models of rocks established were reviewed.And corresponding related problems were stated.Subsequently,starting from the effects of bedding and whole life-cycle evolution process,series of triaxial mechanical tests of deep bedded sandstone with five bedding angles were conducted under different confining pressures.Then,six residual strength models considering the effects of bedding and whole life-cycle evolution process were established and evaluated.Finally,a cohesion loss model for determining residual strength of deep bedded sandstone was verified.The results showed that the effects of bedding and whole life-cycle evolution process had both significant influences on the evolution characteristic of residual strength of deep bedded sandstone.Additionally,residual strength parameters:residual cohesion and residual internal friction angle of deep bedded sandstone were not constant,which both significantly changed with increasing bedding angle.Besides,the cohesion loss model was the most suitable for determining and estimating the residual strength of bedded rocks,which could provide more accurate theoretical guidance for the stability control of deep chambers.

文摘Understanding the mesoscopic tensile fracture damage of rock is the basis of evaluating the deterioration process of mechanical properties of heat-damaged rock. For this, tensile tests of rocks under high-temperature treatment were conducted with a ϕ75 mm split Hopkinson tension bar (SHTB) to investigate the mesoscopic fracture and damage properties of rock. An improved scanning electron microscopy (SEM) experimental method was used to analyze the tensile fracture surfaces of rock samples. Qualitative and quantitative analyses were performed to assess evolution of mesoscopic damage of heat-damaged rock under tensile loading. A constitutive model describing the mesoscopic fractal damage under thermo-mechanical coupling was established. The results showed that the high temperatures significantly reduced the tensile strength and fracture surface roughness of the red sandstone. The three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of the fracture surface of the samples that experienced tensile failure at 900 °C showed a flat surface. The standard deviation of elevation and slope angle of specimen fracture surface first increased and then decreased with increasing temperature. The threshold for brittle fracture of the heat-damaged red sandstone specimens was 600 °C. Beyond this threshold temperature, local ductile fracture occurred, resulting in plastic deformation of the fracture surface during tensile fracturing. With increase of temperature, the internal meso-structure of samples was strengthened slightly at first and then deteriorated gradually, which was consistent with the change of macroscopic mechanical properties of red sandstone. The mesoscopic characteristics, such as the number, mean side length, maximum area, porosity, and fractal dimension of crack, exhibited an initial decline, followed by a gradual increase. The development of microcracks in samples had significant influence on mesoscopic fractal dimension. The mesoscopic fractal characteristics were used to establish a mesoscopic fractal damage constitutive model for red sandstone, and the agreement between the theoretical and experimental results validated the proposed model.

文摘Analyzing the sources of nitrogen and phosphorus pollution in atmospheric deposition is crucial for protecting the surfacewater environment in vulnerable areas.This study focused on the Dahekou Reservoir,Shayuan District,Xilin Gol League,Inner Mongolia,China.It established 12 monitoring sites,conducted one-year monitoring,and collected 144 samples.The concentrations of nitrogen,phosphorus,and water-soluble ions in atmospheric wet sedimentation were measured.This study identified atmospheric precipitation types,revealed seasonal variations in nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations,assessed the contribution of atmosphericwet sedimentation to reservoirwater quality.Utilizing the airmass backward trajectory(HYSPLIT)model and PMF model,themain pollution sources were analyzed.The results were as follows.1)During the observation period,the atmospheric precipitation types were nitric acid rain in spring,sulfuric acid rain in winter,and mixed acid rain in summer and autumn.2)The monthly concentrations of nitrogen and phosphorus of various forms varied significantly,with NH_(4)^(+)-N peaking in spring,NO_(3)^(-)-N and DOP in autumn,and DIP and DON in summer.Annual pollution loads of atmospheric nitrogen and phosphorus precipitation into the reservoir were 35.77 and 4.17 t/a,respectively,severely impacting reservoir water quality.3)Precipitation was negatively correlated with TN concentration,particularly with the NO_(3)^(-)-N/TN ratio,and positively correlated with TP and DIP concen-trations.4)The analysis of pollution sources indicated that the sources of atmospheric nitrogen and phosphorus wet deposition pollution in the study area included agricultural,anthropogenic,dust,and coal sources,with contribution rates of 32.4%,25.6%,21.0%,and 21.0%,respectively.

文摘Taking the second member of the Xujiahe Formation of the Upper Triassic in the Xinchang structural belt as an example,based on data such as logging,production,seismic interpretation and test,a systematic analysis was conducted on the structural characteristics and evolution,reservoir diagenesis and densification processes,and types and stages of faults/fractures,and revealing the multi-stage and multi-factor dynamic coupled enrichment mechanisms of tight gas reservoirs.(1)In the early Yanshan period,the paleo-structural traps were formed with low-medium maturity hydrocarbons accumulating in structural highs driven by buoyancy since reservoirs were not fully densified in this stage,demonstrating paleo-structure control on traps and early hydrocarbon accumulation.(2)In the middle-late Yanshan period,the source rocks became mature to generate and expel a large quantity of hydrocarbons.Grain size and type of sandstone controlled the time of reservoir densification,which restricted the scale of hydrocarbon charging,allowing for only a small-scale migration through sand bodies near the fault/fracture or less-densified matrix reservoirs.(3)During the Himalayan period,the source rocks reached overmaturity,and the residual oil cracking gas was efficiently transported along the late-stage faults/fractures.Wells with high production capacity were mainly located in Type I and II fault/fracture zones comprising the late-stage north-south trending fourth-order faults and the late-stage fractures.The productivity of the wells was controlled by the transformation of the late-stage faults/fractures.(4)The Xinchang structural belt underwent three stages of tectonic evolution,two stages of reservoir formation,and three stages of fault/fractures development.Hydrocarbons mainly accumulated in the paleo-structure highs.After reservoir densification and late fault/fracture adjustment,a complex gas-water distribution pattern was formed.Thus,it is summarized as the model of“near-source and low-abundance hydrocarbon charging in the early stage,and differential enrichment of natural gas under the joint control of fault-fold-fracture complex,high-quality reservoirs and structural highs in the late stage”.Faults/fractures with well-coupled fault-fold-fracture-pore are favorable exploration targets with high exploration effectiveness.

文摘Shield tunneling in saturated ground poses challenges due to the potential risk of ground collapse resulting from seepage force and inadequate support pressure.This study employed a laboratory model test and a theoretical validation to elucidate the mechanisms of face failure and subsequent ground collapse in saturated ground during slurry pressure-balanced shield(SPBS)tunneling operations.A slurry circulation system was developed to ensure steady shield tunneling and to replicate the phenomena of ground collapse.Investigations into shield tunneling parameters and ground responses,including soil pressure,pore water pressure,and surface subsidence,were conducted to understand the mechanisms of face failure and subsequent ground collapse.The theoretical solution for the critical collapse pressure of the tunnel face,based on the rotational failure mechanism,was validated through the comparison with the experimentally determined critical collapse pressure.The results indicate that:(1)appropriate adjustments of tunneling parameters are crucial for promoting filtercake formation,maintaining chamber pressure,and minimizing ground subsidence;(2)chamber pressure,soil pressure,pore water pressure,and ground subsidence are closely correlated with shield tunneling parameters and the formation of filter cake;(3)ground collapse follows a continuous failure mode due to the destruction of filtercake and the decrease in chamber pressure;(4)the soil pressure at the cutterhead is more sensitive to disturbances from shield tunneling than chamber pressure;and(5)experimentally determined critical collapse pressures is consistent with the theoretical solution of limit analysis.

文摘High-altitude cold regions exhibit complex geological and environmental conditions,fostering steep rock slopes with macroscopic joints and mesoscopic freeze-thaw(F-T)damage.Cyclic loading further exacerbates rock instability,yet the fracture mechanisms and load response relationships remain poorly understood.This study prepared intact and fractured sandstone specimens,subjected them to F-T cycles and graded loading-unloading,and monitored their structural evolution via X-ray computed tomography.First,the progressive failure process was investigated from both qualitative morphologic features and quantitative void parameters.The results showed that intact and fractured sandstone instability behaviors are determined by F-T damage and joint arrangement,respectively.However,both indicate that precursory localization of failure can only be detected when heterogeneous damage exists in advance.Furthermore,the void parameters of undamaged intact sandstone exhibit power-law acceleration,while damaged sandstones are characterized by a trend of initial decrease followed by an increase.Subsequently,a damage constitutive model for freeze-thawed fractured sandstone under graded loading-unloading was established.This model is based on the Lemaitre strain equivalence hypothesis and defines the coupled damage variable through multivariable indicators.In this framework,the material damage induced by fractures and F-T is unified and characterized by void parameters;while the load-induced damage is integrated with the energy linear allocation law and defined by damage energy.Thus,the stress-strain theoretical relationship is depicted,and the model is validated as reliable.Finally,a conceptual model of rock damage due to F-T and loading-unloading was proposed by combining the microscopic testing results from X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy.

文摘Sand-bentonite(SB)cutoff walls are commonly used as barriers in polluted areas.The embedded part of an SB wall in an aquitard is crucial for its performance.In this study,a centrifuge modeling test was carried out to investigate the effect of contact between the key and the aquitard on the migration behavior of contaminants within an SB cutoff wall.The centrifuge was accelerated to 100g(gravitational acceleration)and maintained in-flight for 36 h,equivalent to 41 years of transport time in the prototype.Results showed that the contaminant concentration within the SB wall was higher downstream than in the middle in the thickness direction,and deeper regions exhibited a greater concentration than shallower ones.This concentration distribution indicated that contaminants were transported along the interface between the SB wall and the aquitard,bypassing the base of the SB wall to reach the downstream aquifer rapidly.An improved numerical simulation considering preferential interface migration was performed,which agreed with the centrifuge test results.The simulation results indicated that preferential interface migration,as a defect,significantly accelerated the speed of contaminant migration,reducing the breakthrough time of the SB wall to 1/9 of that without preferential interface migration.

文摘The paper presents the results of geomechanical and CT-based studies of deformation,fracture and filtration processes in reservoir rocks of the Arctic shelf gas condensate field.The experimental study combines(i)determination of mechanical properties,(ii)true triaxial physical modeling of near-wellbore filtration and geomechanical processes,(iii)triaxial sand production studies,and(iv)digital CT-analysis of the rock matrix and sand particles.Based on true triaxial physical modeling,the relationships between permeability,rock deformation,and stresses around a horizontal well during drawdown were determined.Hollow cylinder-type tests were used to determine the stress conditions for sand release initiation,the intensity of sand production under varying stress states,and the total volume of sand produced.Digital particle size analysis of the matrix and released sand provided insights into the dominant mechanisms of hole failure during sand production.A significant strength anisotropy of reservoir rocks was identified,suggesting that drawdown in horizontal wells could lead to asymmetric bottomhole zone fracture,initiated at the upper and lower points on the wellbore contour.The obtained results allowed to determine(i)the drawdowns required to maintain wellbore stability in the given reservoir interval;(ii)the optimal parameters of downhole gravel filter screens for sand control;(iii)to identify the prevailing type of wellbore fracture and to localize failure initiation points on the wellbore walls.The results highlight the importance of integrating modern laboratory core analysis methods to enhance the development of complex reservoirs and reduce the risks of fractures and sand production in weakly cemented formations.

文摘Rocks will suffer different degree of damage under freeze-thaw(FT)cycles,which seriously threatens the long-term stability of rock engineering in cold regions.In order to study the mechanism of rock FT damage,energy calculation method and energy self-inhibition model are introduced to explore their energy characteristics in this paper.The applicability of the energy self-inhibition model was verified by combining the data of FT cycles and uniaxial compression tests of intact and pre-cracked sandstone samples,as well as published reference data.In addition,the energy evolution characteristics of FT damaged rocks were discussed accordingly.The results indicate that the energy self-inhibition model perfectly characterizes the energy accumulation characteristics of FT damaged rocks under uniaxial compression before the peak strength and the energy dissipation characteristics before microcrack unstable growth stage.Taking the FT damaged cyan sandstone sample as an example,it has gone through two stages dominated by energy dissipation mechanism and energy accumulation mechanism,and the energy rate curve of the pre-cracked sample shows a fall-rise phenomenon when approaching failure.Based on the published reference data,it was found that the peak total input energy and energy storage limit conform to an exponential FT decay model,with corresponding decay constants ranging from 0.0021 to 0.1370 and 0.0018 to 0.1945,respectively.Finally,a linear energy storage equation for FT damaged rocks was proposed,and its high reliability and applicability were verified by combining published reference data,the energy storage coefficient of different types of rocks ranged from 0.823 to 0.992,showing a negative exponential relationship with the initial UCS(uniaxial compressive strength).In summary,the mechanism by which FT weakens the mechanical properties of rocks has been revealed from an energy perspective in this paper,which can provide reference for related issues in cold regions.

文摘Accurate lithofacies classification in low-permeability sandstone reservoirs remains challenging due to class imbalance in well-log data and the difficulty of the modeling vertical lithological dependencies.Traditional core-based interpretation introduces subjectivity,while conventional deep learning models often fail to capture stratigraphic sequences effectively.To address these limitations,we propose a hybrid CNN–GRU framework that integrates spatial feature extraction and sequential modeling.Heat Kernel Imputation is applied to reconstruct missing log data,and Borderline SMOTE(BSMOTE)improves class balance by augmenting boundary-case minority samples.The CNN component extracts localized petrophysical features,and the GRU component captures depth-wise lithological transitions,to enable spatial-sequential feature fusion.Experiments on real-well datasets from tight sandstone reservoirs show that the proposed model achieves an average accuracy of 93.3%and a Macro F1-score of 0.934.It outperforms baseline models,including RF(87.8%),GBDT(81.8%),CNN-only(87.5%),and GRU-only(86.1%).Leave-one-well-out validation further confirms strong generalization ability.These results demonstrate that the proposed approach effectively addresses data imbalance and enhances classification robustness,offering a scalable and automated solution for lithofacies interpretation under complex geological conditions.

文摘The utilization of discarded coral debris in cementitious material is a prominent research area for island construction projects.The aim of this study is to explore the use of environment-friendly cement and waste coral sand in the preparation of coral mortar,while investigating its performance when exposed to a chloride environment.Three types of low-carbon cements were employed,such as rapid hardening sulphoaluminate(RCSA)cement,high belite sulphoaluminate(HBCSA)cement,and slag sulphoaluminate cement(SSC).The coulomb electric flux,mechanical properties,free chloride content,and mass change of the cement mortar under exposed to 3.5 wt%NaCl solution were examined at various time intervals.X-ray diffraction analysis was conducted to identify the mineral phases present in the mortar samples.The results demonstrate that the flexural and compressive strength of the mortar consistently increase throughout the 360 days chloride exposure period.Incorporating coral sand into SSC-based mortars enhances their compressive strength from day 28 up until day 360.However,it adversely affects the strength of HBCSA-based mortars.The behavior of mortars exposed to a chloride-rich environment is closely associated with the amount of C-S-H gel present within them.SSC generates a significant quantity of C-S-H gel which possesses a large specific surface area capable of absorbing more chloride ions thereby reducing their concentration within the mortar matrix as well as increasing its mass and improving resistance against chloride ion penetration.
文摘Model evaluation using benchmark datasets is an important method to measure the capability of large language models(LLMs)in specific domains,and it is mainly used to assess the knowledge and reasoning abilities of LLMs.Therefore,in order to better assess the capability of LLMs in the agricultural domain,Agri-Eval was proposed as a benchmark for assessing the knowledge and reasoning ability of LLMs in agriculture.The assessment dataset used in Agri-Eval covered seven major disciplines in the agricultural domain:crop science,horticulture,plant protection,animal husbandry,forest science,aquaculture science,and grass science,and contained a total of 2283 questions.Among domestic general-purpose LLMs,DeepSeek R1 performed best with an accuracy rate of 75.49%.In the realm of international general-purpose LLMs,Gemini 2.0 pro exp 0205 standed out as the top performer,achieving an accuracy rate of 74.28%.As an LLMs in agriculture vertical,Shennong V2.0 outperformed all the LLMs in China,and the answer accuracy rate of agricultural knowledge exceeded that of all the existing general-purpose LLMs.The launch of Agri-Eval helped the LLM developers to comprehensively evaluate the model's capability in the field of agriculture through a variety of tasks and tests to promote the development of the LLMs in the field of agriculture.
