Precompression stress, as an indicator of soil strength, significantly increased from topsoil layer to subsoil layer （P 〈0.05） and was affected by slope position. In the subsoil layer （20-35 cm）, the precompression stress at the footslope position was significantly greater than at the backslope and upslope positions （P 〈0.05）, while there were no significant differences at 0-15 and 100-115 cm. Precompression stress followed the spatial wriation of soil clay content with soil depth and had a significant linear relationship with soil porosity （r^2 = 0.40, P 〈 0.01）. Also, soil cohesion increased with increasing soil clay content. The precompression stress was significantly related to the applied stress corresponding to the highest change of pore water pressure （r^2 = 0.69, P 〈 0.01）. These results suggested that soil strength induced by soil erosion and soil management wried spatially along the slope and the maximum change in pore water pressure during compaction could be an easy indicator to describe soil strength.展开更多

However, it acoustic phonon modes, which are less important for was revealed that the heavier elements could enhance the phonon-mediated superconductivity in ternary hydrides. In the H3S-Xe system, a novel H3SXe compound was discovered by first-principle calculations. The structural phase transitions of H3SXe under high pressures were studied. The R-3m phase of H3SXe was predicted to appear at pressures above 80 GPa, which transitions to C2/m, P-3m1, and Pm-3m phases at pressures of 90, 160, and 220 GPa, respectively. It has been anticipated that the Pm-3m-H3SXe phase with a similar structural feature as that of Im-3m-H3S is a potential high-temperature superconductor with a Tc of 89 K at 240 GPa. The Tc value of H3SXe is lower than that of H3S at high pressure. The ＂H3S＂ host lattice of Pm- 3m-H3SXe is a crucial factor influencing the Tc value. The Xe atoms could accelerate the hydrogen-bond symmetrization. With the increase of the atomic number, the Tc value linearly increases in the H3S- noble-gas-element system. This indicates that the superconductivity can be modulated by changing the relative atomic mass of the noble-gas element.展开更多
