This study analyzed the seismic ambient noise data recorded by 60 short-period seismic stations deployed at the Jishishan earthquake source and adjacent areas. The base-order resonance frequencies of sedimentary layers beneath the stations were determined using the horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio method on ambient noise with diff erent frequencies. Then, a resonance-thickness formula was applied to estimate the sedimentary layer thickness at each station. Finally, the entire regional sediment thickness was obtained via interpolation. The thickness of the sedimentary layer beneath each station was estimated using the equation of the relationship between resonance frequency and sedimentary layer thickness, and fi nally, the distribution of sedimentary layer thickness in the whole region was obtained by interpolation. Results reveal notable spatial variations in sediment thickness in the source and adjacent areas. The shallow sedimentary layer in the source area is relatively thick at approximately 100 m, whereas that in Liugou Village, which is the most severely damaged area, is approximately 150-180 m. In the western region, specifically along the western edge of the Jishishan Mountain rupture and the Pourouliuhe-Cheunhua Nanshan rupture zone, the shallow sedimentary layer is approximately 30-60 m. A comparison between the distribution of seismic secondary hazards and sedimentary layer thickness highlights a strong correlation between these hazards and the amplifi cation eff ects of seismic waves. In regions with thicker sedimentary layers, ground shaking is signifi cantly amplifi ed, resulting in more serious seismic secondary hazards. In addition, the study confi rmed that secondary hazards, such as landslides and liquefaction, were more prevalent in regions with thicker sedimentary layers. These fi ndings provide an important reference for post-earthquake reconstruction, seismic risk assessment, and the development of regional disaster prevention and mitigation strategies..展开更多

文摘Reliable electricity infrastructure is critical for modern society,highlighting the importance of securing the stability of fundamental power electronic systems.However,as such systems frequently involve high-current and high-voltage conditions,there is a greater likelihood of failures.Consequently,anomaly detection of power electronic systems holds great significance,which is a task that properly-designed neural networks can well undertake,as proven in various scenarios.Transformer-like networks are promising for such application,yet with its structure initially designed for different tasks,features extracted by beginning layers are often lost,decreasing detection performance.Also,such data-driven methods typically require sufficient anomalous data for training,which could be difficult to obtain in practice.Therefore,to improve feature utilization while achieving efficient unsupervised learning,a novel model,Densely-connected Decoder Transformer(DDformer),is proposed for unsupervised anomaly detection of power electronic systems in this paper.First,efficient labelfree training is achieved based on the concept of autoencoder with recursive-free output.An encoder-decoder structure with densely-connected decoder is then adopted,merging features from all encoder layers to avoid possible loss of mined features while reducing training difficulty.Both simulation and real-world experiments are conducted to validate the capabilities of DDformer,and the average FDR has surpassed baseline models,reaching 89.39%,93.91%,95.98%in different experiment setups respectively.

文摘Shallow gas can cause many disasters,and it is reported in many marine engineering constructions.For this,it is imperative to understand the impact of gas on the mechanical behaviors of soil.This study investigated the influence of undrained triaxial compression tests on dense gassy sand commonly encountered in coastal areas.Triaxial tests were performed on specimens with saturations of 100%,99.8%,95.9%,and 92.7% under confining pressures of 50 kPa and 200 kPa by a self-developed multipurpose integrated triaxial apparatus(MITA)for gassy soil.The results are presented in terms of monotonic stress‒strain behavior,volumetric behavior,shear strength,and excess pore water pressure(EPWP).The occurrence of gas bubbles has different effects on loose and dense sands,augmenting the undrained shear strength of loose sand while concurrently diminishing that of dense sand.The deviatoric stress of dense sand increases during shear shrinkage,which is similar to the characteristics of loose sand under the influence of gas bubbles.However,following sand dilation,the effect of gas bubbles on deviatoric stress manifests in an antithetical manner.With elevated gas content,the shear strength of dense sand decreases,accompanied by a deceleration in the development of EPWP and a notable increase in volumetric changes.To this end,a microscopic explanation concerning the deformation and evolution of gas bubbles within sand during the shear process was presented to reveal the macroscopic laws governing the undrained shear attributes of dense gassy sand.

文摘The aftershocks of the 1975 M_(S)7.3 Haicheng and 1999 M_(S)5.4 Xiuyan earthquakes have persisted for a long time.The ChinArray-III dense stations,deployed in eastern North China from 2018 to 2020,increased seismic monitoring capability in the Haicheng-Xiuyan region,which can facilitate the construction of high-precision earthquake catalogs to better clarify the fault structures and seismogenic mechanisms of the two earthquakes.In this study,we selected 15 permanent stations and 37 ChinArray-III stations within 150 km of the epicenter of the Haicheng Earthquake.Next,we used deep learning methods to pick P-and S-wave phases from continuous waveforms recorded at these stations from January 2018 to July 2020.Based on these picks,we constructed an automatic earthquake catalog of the Haicheng-Xiuyan region.Compared with the routine manual catalog by China Earthquake Networks Center(CENC),our catalog contains 9.7 times more seismic events,including 98.3%of the seismic events in the CENC catalog,and has a lower magnitude of completeness(M_(c)=1.1 vs M_(c)=1.8 for the CENC catalog).The relocated events indicate that the strike of the Haichenghe-Dayanghe fault varies considerably from northwest to southeast,indicating that the fault bends slightly around the hypocenter of the 1975 M_(S)7.3 Haicheng earthquake which may act as a channel for fluid migration.The weak seismicity in the area between Haicheng and Xiuyan indicates that the fault section may be locked.Furthermore,the 1999 M_(S)5.4 Xiuyan earthquake and its aftershock sequence occurred on the Kangjialing fault and its ENE-trending conjugate fault,and the intersection of the two faults coincides with the source areas of the 1999 M_(S)5.4 and 2000 M_(S)5.1 Xiuyan earthquakes.Therefore,the Xiuyan earthquake sequence may be controlled by the Kangjialing fault and its conjugate fault.This study shows that the automatic earthquake catalog,obtained by deep learning methods and dense seismic array,can provide valuable information for fault structures and the seismogenic mechanisms of moderate-to-strong earthquakes.

文摘The evolution of cracks in shale directly affects the efficient production of shale gas.However,there is a lack of research on the characteristics of crack initiation in deep dense shale under different stress conditions.In this work,considering the different combinations of confining pressure and bedding plane inclination angle(α),biaxial mechanical loading experiments were conducted on shale containing circular holes.The research results indicate that the confining pressure and inclination angle of the bedding planes significantly influence the failure patterns of shale containing circular holes.The instability of shale containing circular holes can be classified into five types:tensile failure along the bedding planes,tensile failure through the bedding planes,shear slip along the bedding planes,shear failure through the bedding planes,and block instability failure.Furthermore,the evolution of strain and stress fields around the circular holes was found to be the fundamental cause of variations in the initiation characteristics and locations of shale cracks.The crack initiation criterion for shale containing circular hole was established,providing a new method for evaluating the trajectory of shale hole wall fractures.This study holds significant importance for evaluating the evolution and stability of fracture networks within shale reservoirs.

文摘A plasma screening model that accounts for electronic exchange-correlation effects and ionic nonideality in dense quantum plasmas is proposed.This model can be used as an input in various plasma interaction models to calculate scattering cross-sections and transport properties.The applicability of the proposed plasma screening model is demonstrated using the example of the temperature relaxation rate in dense hydrogen and warm dense aluminum.Additionally,the conductivity of warm dense aluminum is computed in the regime where collisions are dominated by electron-ion scattering.The results obtained are compared with available theoretical results and simulation data.

文摘Aiming at the problem of mobile data traffic surge in 5G networks,this paper proposes an effective solution combining massive multiple-input multiple-output techniques with Ultra-Dense Network(UDN)and focuses on solving the resulting challenge of increased energy consumption.A base station control algorithm based on Multi-Agent Proximity Policy Optimization(MAPPO)is designed.In the constructed 5G UDN model,each base station is considered as an agent,and the MAPPO algorithm enables inter-base station collaboration and interference management to optimize the network performance.To reduce the extra power consumption due to frequent sleep mode switching of base stations,a sleep mode switching decision algorithm is proposed.The algorithm reduces unnecessary power consumption by evaluating the network state similarity and intelligently adjusting the agent’s action strategy.Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm reduces the power consumption by 24.61% compared to the no-sleep strategy and further reduces the power consumption by 5.36% compared to the traditional MAPPO algorithm under the premise of guaranteeing the quality of service of users.

文摘Reliable thickness of sedimentary layers is essential for seismic hazard assessment in active fault zones, especially in regions prone to strong earthquakes. This study analyzed the seismic ambient noise data recorded by 60 short-period seismic stations deployed at the Jishishan earthquake source and adjacent areas. The base-order resonance frequencies of sedimentary layers beneath the stations were determined using the horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio method on ambient noise with diff erent frequencies. Then, a resonance-thickness formula was applied to estimate the sedimentary layer thickness at each station. Finally, the entire regional sediment thickness was obtained via interpolation. The thickness of the sedimentary layer beneath each station was estimated using the equation of the relationship between resonance frequency and sedimentary layer thickness, and fi nally, the distribution of sedimentary layer thickness in the whole region was obtained by interpolation. Results reveal notable spatial variations in sediment thickness in the source and adjacent areas. The shallow sedimentary layer in the source area is relatively thick at approximately 100 m, whereas that in Liugou Village, which is the most severely damaged area, is approximately 150-180 m. In the western region, specifically along the western edge of the Jishishan Mountain rupture and the Pourouliuhe-Cheunhua Nanshan rupture zone, the shallow sedimentary layer is approximately 30-60 m. A comparison between the distribution of seismic secondary hazards and sedimentary layer thickness highlights a strong correlation between these hazards and the amplifi cation eff ects of seismic waves. In regions with thicker sedimentary layers, ground shaking is signifi cantly amplifi ed, resulting in more serious seismic secondary hazards. In addition, the study confi rmed that secondary hazards, such as landslides and liquefaction, were more prevalent in regions with thicker sedimentary layers. These fi ndings provide an important reference for post-earthquake reconstruction, seismic risk assessment, and the development of regional disaster prevention and mitigation strategies..

文摘Optimizing the interfacial environments of electrodes has emerged as an effective strategy to improve their electrochemical properties.Amorphous/crystalline interfacial coupling can effectively utilize the advantages of amorphous materials to optimize the interfacial structure for efficient Na^(+)storage.Herein,the dense homologous amorphous/crystalline heterointerfaces are in situ achieved in N-doped carbon nanobundles via self-polymerization and precise nitriding(Mo–N/Mo_(2)N@C).The amorphous Mo–N rich in unsaturated vacancy defects provides abundant active sites with isotropic ion-transport channels,and can effectively alleviate structural stress from crystalline Mo_(2)N.Meanwhile,the conductive Mo_(2)N can facilitate effective electron transfer,augmented further by the carbon encapsulation.Theoretical calculations reveal that the dense heterointerfaces can optimize the electronic structure and shift the d-p orbital centers of Mo and N upward,thereby enhancing the adsorption and mobility of Na^(+),and ultimately improving the charge transport and storage efficiency of the electrode.The Mo–N/Mo_(2)N@C as an anode delivers a 46.9%increase in reversible capacity over Mo_(2)N@C,reaching 461.1 m Ah.g^(–1)at 0.1 A.g^(–1),along with improved rate capability and cycling stability,underlining its practical utility.These results suggest that the homologous interfacial coupling can boost the storage properties of nitrides,providing a valuable reference for improving the properties of electrodes with low theoretical capacities.

文摘Maintaining the stability of the excavation face is key for ensuring the safety of underwater shield tunnel construction.However,the majority of current studies on the stability of excavation face focus on the homogeneous strata,with limited research conducted on the upper loose and lower dense strata.Active instability tests are conducted in this study,in concert with the digital image correlation(DIC)technique,to investigate the effects of different water pressure ratios in upper loose and lower dense water-rich strata.The accuracy of these model tests is verified using numerical simulations.The results indicate that as water pressure ratio decreases,there is an increase in both the peak displacement of surface settlement and the seepage path range of water ahead of the excavation face expands.In contrast,decreasing water pressure ratio will break the limit equilibrium state of the strata faster,cause the earth pressure on the cutterhead to change more rapidly,and increase the instability range of the strata.
