When the type and distribution of unfavorable geological bodies (UGBs) associated with their influences on geoengineering are complicated or unfortunately are overlooked, we should pay more attentions to internal features of rocks grades IV and V (even in local but mostly controlling zones). With increasing attentions to the characteristics, mechanism and influences of engineering construction-triggered geohazards, it is crucial to fully understand the disturbance of these geohazards on project construction. A reasonable determination method in construction procedure, i.e. the shape of working face, the type of engineering support and the choice of feasible procedure, should be considered in order to mitigate the construction-triggered geohazards. Due to their high sensitivity to groundwater and in-situ stress, various UGBs exhibit hysteretic nature and failure modes. To give a complete understanding on the internal causes, the emphasis on advanced comprehensive geological forecasting and overall reinforcement treatment is therefore of more practical significance. Compre- hensive evaluation of influential factors, identification of UGB, and measures of discontinuity dynamic controlling comprises the geoengineering condition evaluation and dynamic controlling method. In a case of a cut slope, the variations of UGBs and the impacts of key environmental factors are presented, where more severe construction-triggered geohazards emerged in construction stage than those predicted in design and field investigation stages. As a result, the weight ratios of different influential factors with respect to field investigation, design and construction are obtained.展开更多

In terms of the parameter representing the ratio of the center deflection to the thickness of the plate, we make the asymptotic expansions of the deflection, membrane stress and the parameter of load as in Ref. [1], and then give the orthogonality conditions (i.e. the solvability conditions) for the resulting equations, by which the stiffness characteristics of the plate could be determined. It is pointed out that with the solutions for the small deflection problem of the circular plate and the orthogonality conditions, we can derive the third order approximate relations between the parameter of load and the center deflection and the first-term approximation of membrane stresses at the center and edge of the plate without solving the differential equations. For some special cases (i.e. under uniform load, under compound toad, with different boundary conditiors), we deduce the specific expressions and obtain the results in agreement with the previous ones given by Chien Wei-zang, Yeh kai-yuan and Hwang Chien in Refs. [1 - 4J.展开更多

The multi-antenna users and the multi-antenna relay are considered in this work. Different from the existing works, the proposed algorithm is energy-efficient which is more applicable to the future green network. It considers both the sum-MSE problem and the power consumption problem for the users under the relay power constraint. Based on the optimal condition decomposition(OCD) method, the energy-efficient precoders at the users can be designed separately with limited information exchanged. The proposed relay beamforming algorithm is based on the alternative direction method of multipliers(ADMM) which has simpler iterative solution and enjoys good convergence. Simulation results demonstrate the performance of the proposed algorithms in terms of power consumption and MSE performance.展开更多

Characteristics of the heat transfer process are analyzed with a more realistic condition named the convective boundary condition. Governing equations for the flow problem are derived by the boundary layer approximations. The modeled highly coupled partial differential system is converted into a system of ordinary differential equations with acceptable similarity transformations. The convergent series solutions for the resulting system are constructed and analyzed. Optimal values are obtained and presented in a numerical form using an optimal homotopy analysis method (OHAM). The rheological characteristics of different parameters of the velocity and temperature profiles are presented graphically. Tabular variations of the skin friction coefficient and the Nusselt number are also calculated. It is observed that the temperature distribution shows opposite behavior for Prandtl and Biot numbers. Furthermore, the rate of heating/cooling is higher for both the Prandtl and Biot numbers.展开更多

文摘This paper discusses a statistical second-order two-scale(SSOTS) analysis and computation for a heat conduction problem with a radiation boundary condition in random porous materials.Firstly,the microscopic configuration for the structure with random distribution is briefly characterized.Secondly,the SSOTS formulae for computing the heat transfer problem are derived successively by means of the construction way for each cell.Then,the statistical prediction algorithm based on the proposed two-scale model is described in detail.Finally,some numerical experiments are proposed,which show that the SSOTS method developed in this paper is effective for predicting the heat transfer performance of porous materials and demonstrating its significant applications in actual engineering computation.
文摘In recent years,with the rapid development of China’s economy,a large number of people have flocked to the cities,which also brings more residential waste.The increased waste overloads transfer stations located near residential areas,and the continuous noise and odour affect the daily lives of nearby residents.In addition,the neighbourhood avoidance facilities represented by the waste transfer stations also reduce the value of the surrounding residents’houses.Therefore,using the conditional value method and the Tobit and Double Hurder econometric models,this article investigates the implicit value of the Fuli Resort neighbourhood under the influence of the waste transfer station through a questionnaire survey on the willingness of the residents to accept the compensation,which can be regarded as the“aversion value”of the neighbourhood due to the aversion to the waste transfer station and analyses the impact of the aversion value of the neighbourhood.aversion value and analyses the impact on residents’willingness to accept compensation.The study found that the residents’willingness to accept compensation near the waste transfer station is 511.94 RMB/person/month,and the implicit value of the Fuli Resort neighbourhood under the influence of the waste transfer station in Qinhuai District,Nanjing,Jiangsu Province,China,is 147,950 RMB.The study found that residents are most interested in having the government rectify the waste transfer station and set sanitary standards and work norms.
文摘The near crack line field analysis method has been used io investigate into theexact elastic-plastic solutions of a mode II crack under plane stress condilion in anelastic-perfectly plastic solid. The assumptions of the usual small scale yielding theory.hare been completely. dbandoned and the correct formulations of matching conditionsat the elaslic-plastic boundary. have been given. By, matching the general solution ofthe plastic slress field (bul not the special solution used to be adopted) with the exactelastic stress field (but not the crack tip K-dominant field) at the elastic-plasticboundary, near the crack line, the plastic stresses. the length of the plastic =one and theunit normal vector of the elastic-plastic boundary.which are sufficiently precise near the crack line region ,have been given.

文摘The double-die ironing process is studied by means of UBM. The formulas of deformation load.contact stress on die surface, and tensile stress which acts on workpiece is obtained. Taking account of dirnensional accuracy, a new critical condition of limit reduction in cross section area is put forward for the flrst time. The test experiment indicats that results of theoretical analysis well accord with the actual conditions.[0]
