Using over 3 500 first P arrival times recorded by nine digital seismic stations from Hainan Digital Seismic Net-work during 1999~2005,a 3-D P-wave velocity model of the crust under Hainan Island and adjacent regions...Using over 3 500 first P arrival times recorded by nine digital seismic stations from Hainan Digital Seismic Net-work during 1999~2005,a 3-D P-wave velocity model of the crust under Hainan Island and adjacent regions has been determined. The results show that the pattern of velocity anomalies in the shallower upper crust is somewhat associated with the surface geological tectonics in the region. A relative low-velocity anomaly appears north of the Wangwu-Wenjiao fault zone and a relative high-velocity anomaly appears south of the Wangwu-Wenjiao fault zone,corresponding to the depressed areas in north Hainan Island,where many volcanoes are frequently active and geothermal values are relatively higher,and the uplifted and stable regions in central and south of the Hainan Is-land. In the middle and lower crust velocities are relatively lower in east Hainan than those in west Hainan,possi-bly suggesting the existence of the upwelling of hot materials from the mantle in east Hainan. The pattern of veloc-ity anomalies also indicates that NW faults,i.e.,the Puqian-Qinglan fault,may be shallower,while the E-W Wangwu-Wenjiao fault may be deeper,which perhaps extends down to Moho depth or deeper.展开更多

The occurr...Throughout the 20th century, several large megathrust earthquakes were observed in the Colombia–Ecuador subduction zone which widely ruptured plate interfaces, causing considerable damage and loss of life. The occurrence of earthquakes in subduction zones is thought to be closely related to the thermal structure of the incoming plate. However, in the case of the subducting Nazca Plate beneath the Colombia–Ecuador zone, the thermal structure remains unclear, especially its hydraulic distribution. On the basis of 3D thermal models, we present new insights into the plate interface conditions of Colombia–Ecuador interplate and megathrust earthquakes. We show that the plate geometry strongly affects the along-strike thermal structure of the slab beneath Colombia and Ecuador, with the subduction of the Carnegie Ridge playing an important role. Our results further reveal that the unique geometry of the Nazca Plate is the primary reason for the relatively high temperatures of the slab beneath Colombia. We suggest that the positions of the100–200 ℃ and 350–450 ℃ isotherms on the plate interface determine the updip and downdip limits of the seismogenic zone. For Colombia–Ecuador interplate earthquakes, the released fluids control the distribution of shallow-depth earthquakes, whereas the age and geometry of the slab control the distribution of intermediate-depth earthquakes. The average temperature of the plate interface at the upper limit of large megathrust earthquakes is hotter than previously thought, which is more consistent with our understanding of the Colombia–Ecuador subduction zone. We predict that the potential location of future large seismic events could be in the rupture zone of past seismic events or offshore of northern Colombia.展开更多

It is shown that:(1) The Kong 2 Member can be divided into seven types according to the distribution patterns of reservoir spaces: felsic shale with intergranular micron pores, felsic shale with intergranular fissures, felsic shale with intergranular pores, hybrid shale with intergranular pores and fissures, hybrid shale with intergranular pores, clay-bearing dolomitic shale with intergranular pores, and clay-free dolomitic shale with intergranular pores.(2) The reservoir of the intergranular fracture type has better storage capacity than that of intergranular pore type. For reservoirs with storage space of intergranular pore type, the dolomitic shale reservoir has the best storage capacity, the hybrid shale comes second, followed by the felsic shale.(3) The felsic shale with intergranular fissures has the best storage capacity and percolation structure, making it the first target in shale oil exploration.(4) The large volume FIB-SEM 3D reconstruction method is able to characterize a large shale volume while maintaining relatively high spatial resolution, and has been demonstrated an effective method in characterizing the 3D storage space in strongly heterogeneous continental shales.展开更多

文摘Because of the developed surface of the Triply PeriodicMinimumSurface(TPMS)structures,polylactide(PLA)products with a TPMS structure are thought to be promising bio soluble implants with the potential for targeted drug delivery.For implants,mechanical properties are key performance characteristics,so understanding the deformation and failure mechanisms is essential for selecting the appropriate implant structure.The deformation and fracture processes in PLA samples with different interior architectures have been studied through computer simulation and experimental research.Two TPMS topologies,the Schwarz Diamond and Gyroid architectures,were used for the sample construction by 3D printing.ANSYS software was utilized to simulate compressive deformation.It was found that under the same load,the vonMises stresses in the Gyroid structure are higher than those in the Schwartz Diamond structure,which was associated with the different orientations of the cells in the studied structures in relation to the direction of the loading axis.The deformation process occurs in the local regions of the studied TPMS structures.Maximum von Mises stresses were observed in the vertical parts of the structures oriented along the load direction.It was found that,unlike the Gyroid,the Schwartz Diamond structure contains a frame that forms unique stiffening ribs,which ensures the redistribution of the load under the vertical loading direction.An analysis of the mechanical characteristics of PLA samples with the Schwartz Diamond and Gyroid structures produced by the Fused Deposition Modeling(FDM)method was correlated with computer simulation.The Schwarz Diamond-type structure was shown to have a higher absorption energy than the Gyroid one.A study of the fracture in PLA samples with various cell sizes revealed a particular feature related to the samples’periodic surface topology and the 3D printing process.Scanning electron microscopic(SEM)studies of the samples deformed by compression showed thatwith an increase in the density of the samples,the failure mechanism changes from ductile to quasi-brittle due to the complex participation of both cell deformation and fiber deformation.

文摘With superior structural integrity and design flexibility,3D woven fabrics exhibit unique potential in ballistic protection applications.However,the anisotropic yarn distribution renders traditional 3D woven fabrics susceptible to fixed boundaries,which is not conducive to practical applications.Inspired by the motion characteristics of yarn structures,this study investigates a hybrid 3D woven fabric structure that incorporates interlayer warp yarns and normal yarns.Bending stiffness tests,yarn pull-out tests,and ballistic tests are conducted and compared with single-binding yarn structures.Utilizing a validated meso-finite element model,the dynamic deformation and energy absorption mechanisms of the hybrid configuration under impact are elucidated.The results demonstrate that synergistic interactions among various binding yarn structures maintain fabric stability in the absence of boundaries.Normal yarns inhibit horizontal slippage of warp yarns,while multi-layer warp yarns enhance resistance to weft yarn pull-out,thereby facilitating greater yarn participation in direct energy absorption.The hybrid structure exhibited the highest specific energy absorption(SEA)across different boundary conditions,with an average SEA increase of approximately 27%.These insights will facilitate the design of novel hybrid-structured 3D woven fabrics and inform the customization of lightweight protective materials.

文摘The Pamir Plateau,located in the western syntaxis of the Tibetan Plateau,is a critical region for understanding continental collision dynamics and associated metallogenic processes.First,on the basis of the spherical coordinate system,Bouguer gravity anomalies were derived from satellite gravity data covering the Pamir Plateau and adjacent regions.A three-dimensional density structure model spanning crustal to upper mantle depths(0-200 km)was subsequently inverted through an advanced three-dimensional physical property inversion methodology.Finally,the depth of the Moho surface in the study area was calculated using an interface inversion method with variable density,which was improved on the basis of the Parker-Oldenburg formula.Our results reveal significant lateral density variations:Moho depths exhibit a mirror-image relationship with surface topography,and steep Moho gradients align with major tectonic boundaries,indicating deep structural controls on crustal thickening and plateau uplift.The Pamir uplift was driven by crustal thickening,mantle upwelling following slab break-off,and erosion-isostatic feedback.Lateral extrusion of Pamir material,constrained by the rigid Tarim Basin,further shapes the plateau's asymmetric topography.High-density anomalies at mid-crustal depths correlate with magmatic intrusions and fault systems,providing pathways for ore-forming fluids.The spatial associations of porphyry Cu-Au and skarn Fe deposits with Moho depth underscore the importance of crust-mantle interactions in mineralization.

文摘Rapid and accurate visible-light photopolymerization is essential for advancing bioprinted engineered tissues.In this study,we developed a novel three-component photoinitiator system for visible light-induced crosslinking of gelatin methacryloyl(GelMA)hydrogels,designed to improve polymerization kinetics,mechanical strength,and structural integrity.Incorporation of 2-bromoacetophenone(BAP)considerably accelerated photopolymerization,with reaction rates increasing alongside BAP concentration,enabling the rapid fabrication of stable hydrogel scaffolds.Printing experiments confirmed that BAP promoted fast crosslinking of GelMA bioinks under visible light,reducing printing time while preserving high-resolution structural features.Additionally,the incorporation of BAP induced microscale structural transformations in the hydrogels during hydration,as evidenced by scanning electron microscopy imaging and swelling analyses.This unique property enabled the fabrication of multilayer constructs exhibiting time-dependent deformation,demonstrating four-dimensional(4 D)printing ca pabilities.Moreover,biocompatibility evaluations revealed that cells maintained high viability in BAP-containing hydrogels.Overall,the BAP-based photoinitiator system offers a promising strategy for high-speed,high-resolution bioprinting,combining enhanced mechanical performance,reduced fabrication time,and dynamic structural adaptability-features that make it highly suitable for advanced biofabrication and tissue engineering applications.

文摘Using over 3 500 first P arrival times recorded by nine digital seismic stations from Hainan Digital Seismic Net-work during 1999~2005,a 3-D P-wave velocity model of the crust under Hainan Island and adjacent regions has been determined. The results show that the pattern of velocity anomalies in the shallower upper crust is somewhat associated with the surface geological tectonics in the region. A relative low-velocity anomaly appears north of the Wangwu-Wenjiao fault zone and a relative high-velocity anomaly appears south of the Wangwu-Wenjiao fault zone,corresponding to the depressed areas in north Hainan Island,where many volcanoes are frequently active and geothermal values are relatively higher,and the uplifted and stable regions in central and south of the Hainan Is-land. In the middle and lower crust velocities are relatively lower in east Hainan than those in west Hainan,possi-bly suggesting the existence of the upwelling of hot materials from the mantle in east Hainan. The pattern of veloc-ity anomalies also indicates that NW faults,i.e.,the Puqian-Qinglan fault,may be shallower,while the E-W Wangwu-Wenjiao fault may be deeper,which perhaps extends down to Moho depth or deeper.

文摘Hydrogel scaffolds have numerous potential applications in the tissue engineering field.However,tough hydrogel scaffolds implanted in vivo are seldom reported because it is difficult to balance biocompatibility and high mechanical properties.Inspired by Chinese ramen,we propose a universal fabricating method(printing-P,training-T,cross-linking-C,PTC&PCT)for tough hydrogel scaffolds to fill this gap.First,3D printing fabricates a hydrogel scaffold with desired structures(P).Then,the scaffold could have extraordinarily high mechanical properties and functional surface structure by cycle mechanical training with salting-out assistance(T).Finally,the training results are fixed by photo-cross-linking processing(C).The tough gelatin hydrogel scaffolds exhibit excellent tensile strength of 6.66 MPa(622-fold untreated)and have excellent biocompatibility.Furthermore,this scaffold possesses functional surface structures from nanometer to micron to millimeter,which can efficiently induce directional cell growth.Interestingly,this strategy can produce bionic human tissue with mechanical properties of 10 kPa-10 MPa by changing the type of salt,and many hydrogels,such as gelatin and silk,could be improved with PTC or PCT strategies.Animal experiments show that this scaffold can effectively promote the new generation of muscle fibers,blood vessels,and nerves within 4 weeks,prompting the rapid regeneration of large-volume muscle loss injuries.

文摘This article presents a micro-structure tensor enhanced elasto-plastic finite element(FE)method to address strength anisotropy in three-dimensional(3D)soil slope stability analysis.The gravity increase method(GIM)is employed to analyze the stability of 3D anisotropic soil slopes.The accuracy of the proposed method is first verified against the data in the literature.We then simulate the 3D soil slope with a straight slope surface and the convex and concave slope surfaces with a 90turning corner to study the 3D effect on slope stability and the failure mechanism under anisotropy conditions.Based on our numerical results,the end effect significantly impacts the failure mechanism and safety factor.Anisotropy degree notably affects the safety factor,with higher degrees leading to deeper landslides.For concave slopes,they can be approximated by straight slopes with suitable boundary conditions to assess their stability.Furthermore,a case study of the Saint-Alban test embankment A in Quebec,Canada,is provided to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed FE model.

文摘Throughout the 20th century, several large megathrust earthquakes were observed in the Colombia–Ecuador subduction zone which widely ruptured plate interfaces, causing considerable damage and loss of life. The occurrence of earthquakes in subduction zones is thought to be closely related to the thermal structure of the incoming plate. However, in the case of the subducting Nazca Plate beneath the Colombia–Ecuador zone, the thermal structure remains unclear, especially its hydraulic distribution. On the basis of 3D thermal models, we present new insights into the plate interface conditions of Colombia–Ecuador interplate and megathrust earthquakes. We show that the plate geometry strongly affects the along-strike thermal structure of the slab beneath Colombia and Ecuador, with the subduction of the Carnegie Ridge playing an important role. Our results further reveal that the unique geometry of the Nazca Plate is the primary reason for the relatively high temperatures of the slab beneath Colombia. We suggest that the positions of the100–200 ℃ and 350–450 ℃ isotherms on the plate interface determine the updip and downdip limits of the seismogenic zone. For Colombia–Ecuador interplate earthquakes, the released fluids control the distribution of shallow-depth earthquakes, whereas the age and geometry of the slab control the distribution of intermediate-depth earthquakes. The average temperature of the plate interface at the upper limit of large megathrust earthquakes is hotter than previously thought, which is more consistent with our understanding of the Colombia–Ecuador subduction zone. We predict that the potential location of future large seismic events could be in the rupture zone of past seismic events or offshore of northern Colombia.

文摘In-space 3D printing is transforming the manufacturing paradigm of space structures from ground-based production to in-situ space manufacturing,effectively addressing the challenges of high costs,long response times,and structural size limitations associated with traditional rocket launches.This technology enables rapid on-orbit emergency repairs and significantly expands the geometric dimensions of space structures.High-performance polymers and their composites are widely used in in-space 3D printing,yet their implementation faces complex challenges posed by extreme space environmental conditions and limited energy or resources.This paper reviews the state-of-the-art in 3D printing of polymer and composites for on-orbit structure manufacturing.Based on existing research activities,the review focuses on three key aspects including the impact of extreme space environments on forming process and performance,innovative design and manufacturing methods for space structures,and on-orbit recycling and remanufacturing of raw materials.Some experiments that have already been conducted on-orbit and simulated experiments completed on the ground are systematically analyzed to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the constraints and objectives for on-orbit structure manufacturing.Furthermore,several perspectives requiring further research in future are proposed to facilitate the development of new in-space 3D printing technologies and space structures,thereby supporting increasingly advanced space exploration activities.

文摘Hierarchical porous structure,which include macropores,minor pores,and micropores in scaffolds,are essential in the multiple biological functions of bone repair and regeneration.In this study,patientcustomized calcium-deficient hydroxyapatite(CDHA)scaffolds with three-level hierarchical porous structure were fabricated by indirect 3D printing technology and particulate leaching method.The sacrificial template scaffolds were fabricated using a photo-curing 3D printer,which provided a prerequisite for the integral structure and interconnected macropores of CDHA scaffolds.Additionally,20 wt%pore former was incorporated into the slurry to enhance the content of smaller pores within the CDHA-2 scaffolds,and then the CDHA-2 scaffolds were sintered to remove the sacrificial template scaffolds and pore former.The obtained CDHA-2 scaffolds exhibited interconnected macropores(300-400μm),minor pores(∼10-100μm),and micropores(<10μm)distributed throughout the scaffolds,which could promote bone tissue ingrowth,increase surface roughness,and enhance protein adsorption of scaffolds.In vitro studies identified that CDHA-2 scaffolds had nanocrystal grains,high specific surface area,and outstanding protein adsorption capacity,which could provide a microenvironment for cell adhesion,spreading,and proliferation.In addition,the murine intramuscular implantation experiment suggested that CDHA-2 scaffolds exhibited excellent osteoinductivity and were superior to traditional BCP ceramics under conditions without the addition of live cells and exogenous growth factors.The rabbit calvarial defect repair results indicated that CDHA-2 scaffolds could enhance in situ bone regeneration.In conclusion,these findings demonstrated that the hierarchical porous structure of CDHA scaffolds was a pivotal factor in modulating osteoinductivity and bone regeneration,and CDHA-2 scaffolds were potential candidates for bone regeneration.

文摘Lithium(Li)metal is considered the most promising anode material for the next generation of secondary batteries due to its high theoretical specific capacity and low potential.However,the application of Li anode in rechargeable Li metal batteries(LMBs)is hindered due to the short cycle life caused by uncontrolled dendrite growth.In this work,a dendrite-free anode(Li–Sn/Cu)is reinforced synergistically by lithophilic alloy,and a 3D grid structure is designed.Li^(+)diffusion and uniform nucleation are effectively induced by the lithophilic alloy Li_(22)Sn_(5).Moreover,homogeneous deposition of Li^(+)is caused by the reversible gridded Li plating/stripping effect of Cu mesh.Furthermore,the local space electric field is redistributed throughout the 3D conductive network,whereby the tip effect is suppressed,thus inhibiting the growth of Li dendrites.Also,the volume expansion of the anode during cycling is eased by the 3D grid structure.The results show that the Li–Sn/Cu symmetric battery can stably cycle for more than 10,000 h at 2 mA.cm^(-2)and 1 mAh.cm^(-2)with a low overpotential.The capacity retention of the LiFePO_(4)full battery remains above 90.7%after 1,000 cycles at 1C.This work provides a facile,low-cost,and effective strategy for obtaining Li metal batteries with ultra-long cycle life.

文摘Transforming a scattering medium into a lens for imaging very simple binary objects is possible;however,it remains challenging to image complex grayscale objects,let alone measure 3D continuous distribution objects.Here,we propose and demonstrate the use of a ground glass diffuser as a scattering lens for imaging complex grayscale fringes,and we employ it to achieve microscopic structured light 3D imaging(MSL3DI).The ubiquitous property of the speckle patterns permits the exploitation of the scattering medium as an ultra-thin scattering lens with a variable focal length and a flexible working distance for microscale object measurement.The method provides a light,flexible,and cost-effective imaging device as an alternative to microscope objectives or telecentric lenses in conventional MSL3DI systems.We experimentally demonstrate that employing a scattering lens allows us to achieve relatively good phase information and robust 3D imaging from depth measurements,yielding measurement accuracy only marginally lower than that of a telecentric lens,typically within approximately 10μm.Furthermore,the scattering lens demonstrates robust performance even when the imaging distance exceeds the typical working distance of a telecentric lens.The proposed method facilitates the application of scattering imaging techniques,providing a more flexible solution for MSL3DI.

文摘Structural modification of three dimensional(3D)materials for the application of dielectric loss-based microwave absorbing materials(MAMs)usually relies on intricate synthesis process and can pose challenges in terms of scalability and mass production for practical application.In this work,we reported a successful attempt in modifying the 3D structure of mesoporous lanthanum oxide(La_(2)O_(3))for effective broadband MAMs candidate via simple co-precipitation process.The inclusion of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide(CTAB)and hydrothermal aging treatment result in a significant transformation of La_(2)O_(3)particles from their original polygonal form to a 3D coral-like and nano needle-like structure.The utilization of CTAB and hydrothermal aging results in the increase of surface area and a two-fold increase in pore volume of the resulting La_(2)O_(3).Due to its unique 3D structure,the 3D coral-like and nano needle-like La_(2)O_(3)materials possess a broadband electromagnetic(EM)wave absorption characteristic with the effective absorption bandwidth(EAB)covering the C-band frequency range.Specifically,in the La_(2)O_(3)C-H sample(with CTAB-with hydrothermal),it exhibits strong EM wave absorption with a reflection loss(RL)value of-33.07 dB which equals to 99.95%EM wave absorption at a thickness of only 1.50 mm.The detailed analysis of EM wave absorption properties reveals that the improvement of La_(2)O_(3)materials to attenuate EM wave energy arises from the dielectric loss phenomenon,the enhanced interfacial polarization,multiple reflections mechanism,and conduction loss mechanism induced by the 3D structural formation of the La_(2)O_(3)structure.This work proposes a novel and efficient approach in synthesizing and modifying 3D materials for effective broadband EM wave absorption.

文摘Due to seasonal climate alterations,the microstructure and permeability of granite residual soil are easily affected by multiple dry-wet cycles.The X-ray micro computed tomography(micro-CT)acted as a nondestructive tool for characterizing the microstructure of soil samples exposed to a range of damage levels induced by dry-wet cycles.Subsequently,the variations of pore distribution and permeability due to drywet cycling effects were revealed based on three-dimensional(3D)pore distribution analysis and seepage simulations.According to the results,granite residual soils could be separated into four different components,namely,pores,clay,quartz,and hematite,from micro-CT images.The reconstructed 3D pore models dynamically demonstrated the expanding and connecting patterns of pore structures during drywet cycles.The values of porosity and connectivity are positively correlated with the number of dry-wet cycles,which were expressed by exponential and linear functions,respectively.The pore volume probability distribution curves of granite residual soil coincide with the χ^(2)distribution curve,which verifies the effectiveness of the assumption of χ^(2)distribution probability.The pore volume distribution curves suggest that the pores in soils were divided into four types based on their volumes,i.e.micropores,mesopores,macropores,and cracks.From a quantitative and visual perspective,considerable small pores are gradually transformed into cracks with a large volume and a high connectivity.Under the action of dry-wet cycles,the number of seepage flow streamlines which contribute to water permeation in seepage simulation increases distinctly,as well as the permeability and hydraulic conductivity.The calculated hydraulic conductivity is comparable with measured ones with an acceptable error margin in general,verifying the accuracy of seepage simulations based on micro-CT results.

文摘Two-dimensional(2D)MXenes are promising as electrode materials for energy storage,owing to their high electronic conductivity and low diffusion barrier.Unfortunately,similar to most 2D materials,MXene nanosheets easily restack during the electrode preparation,which degrades the electrochemical performance of MXene-based materials.A novel synthetic strategy is proposed for converting MXene into restacking-inhibited three-dimensional(3D)balls coated with iron selenides and carbon.This strategy involves the preparation of Fe_(2)O_(3)@carbon/MXene microspheres via a facile ultrasonic spray pyrolysis and subsequent selenization process.Such 3D structuring effectively prevents interlayer restacking,increases the surface area,and accelerates ion transport,while maintaining the attractive properties of MXene.Furthermore,combining iron selenides and carbon with 3D MXene balls offers many more sites for ion storage and enhances the structural robustness of the composite balls.The resultant 3D structured microspheres exhibit a high reversible capacity of 410 mAh g^(−1) after 200 cycles at 0.1 A g^(−1) in potassium-ion batteries,corresponding to the capacity retention of 97% as calculated based on 100 cycles.Even at a high current density of 5.0 A g^(−1),the composite exhibits a discharge capacity of 169 mAh g^(−1).

文摘Origami structure has been employed in many engineering applications.However,there is currently no strategy that can systematically achieve stiffness-tunable origami(STO)structures through proper geometric design.Here,we report a strategy for designing and fabricating STO structures based on thick-panel origami using multimaterial 3D printing.By adjusting the soft hinge position,we tune the geometric parameterψto program the stiffness and strength of origami structures.We develop origami structures with graded stiffness and strength by stacking Kresling origami structures with differentψ.The printed structures show great cyclic characteristics and deformation ability.After optimizing combinations of structures with differentψ,the multi-layer Kresling STO structures can effectively reduce the peak impact,showing a good energy absorption effect.The proposed approach can be implemented in various origami patterns to design and tune the mechanical properties of origami structures for many potential applications.

文摘Three-dimensional(3D)reconstruction using structured light projection has the characteristics of non-contact,high precision,easy operation,and strong real-time performance.However,for actual measurement,projection modulated images are disturbed by electronic noise or other interference,which reduces the precision of the measurement system.To solve this problem,a 3D measurement algorithm of structured light based on deep learning is proposed.The end-to-end multi-convolution neural network model is designed to separately extract the coarse-and fine-layer features of a 3D image.The point-cloud model is obtained by nonlinear regression.The weighting coefficient loss function is introduced to the multi-convolution neural network,and the point-cloud data are continuously optimized to obtain the 3D reconstruction model.To verify the effectiveness of the method,image datasets of different 3D gypsum models were collected,trained,and tested using the above method.Experimental results show that the algorithm effectively eliminates external light environmental interference,avoids the influence of object shape,and achieves higher stability and precision.The proposed method is proved to be effective for regular objects.

文摘This study combines large volume three-dimensional reconstruction via focused ion beam scanning electron microscopy(FIB-SEM) with conventional scanning electron microscope(SEM) observation, automatic mineral identification and characterization system(AMICS) and large-area splicing of SEM images to characterize and classify the microscopic storage space distribution patterns and 3D pore structures of shales in the second member of the Paleogene Kongdian Formation(Kong 2) in the Cangdong Sag of the Bohai Bay Basin. It is shown that:(1) The Kong 2 Member can be divided into seven types according to the distribution patterns of reservoir spaces: felsic shale with intergranular micron pores, felsic shale with intergranular fissures, felsic shale with intergranular pores, hybrid shale with intergranular pores and fissures, hybrid shale with intergranular pores, clay-bearing dolomitic shale with intergranular pores, and clay-free dolomitic shale with intergranular pores.(2) The reservoir of the intergranular fracture type has better storage capacity than that of intergranular pore type. For reservoirs with storage space of intergranular pore type, the dolomitic shale reservoir has the best storage capacity, the hybrid shale comes second, followed by the felsic shale.(3) The felsic shale with intergranular fissures has the best storage capacity and percolation structure, making it the first target in shale oil exploration.(4) The large volume FIB-SEM 3D reconstruction method is able to characterize a large shale volume while maintaining relatively high spatial resolution, and has been demonstrated an effective method in characterizing the 3D storage space in strongly heterogeneous continental shales.

文摘In this study,we compiled and analyzed 69310 P-wave travel-time data from 6639 earthquake events.These events(M≥2.0)occurred from 1980 s to June 2019 and were recorded at 319 seismic stations(Chinese Earthquake Networks Center)in the study area.We adopted the double-difference seismic tomographic method(tomo DD)to invert the 3-D P-wave velocity structure and constrain the crust-upper mantle architecture of the Middle and Lower Reaches of the Yangtze River Metallogenic Belt(MLYB).A 1-D initial model extracted from wide-angle seismic profiles was used in the seismic tomography,which greatly reduced the inversion residual.Our results indicate that reliable velocity structure of th e uppermost mantle can be obtained when Pn is involved in the tomography.Our results show that:(1)the pattern of the uppermost mantle velocity structure corresponds well with the geological partitioning:a nearly E-W-trending low-velocity zone is present beneath the Dabie Orogen,in contrast to the mainly NE-trending low-velocity anomalies beneath the Jiangnan Orogen.They suggest the presence of thickened lower crust beneath the orogens in the study area.In contrast,the Yangtze and Cathaysia blocks are characterized by relatively high-velocity anomalies;(2)both the ultra-high-pressure(UHP)metamorphic rocks in the Dabie Orogen and the low-pressure metamorphic rocks in the Zhangbaling dome are characterized by high-velocity anomalies.The upper crust in the Dabie Orogen is characterized by a low-velocity belt,sandwiched between two high velocity zones in a horizontal direction,with discontinuous low-velocity layers in the middle crust.The keel of the Dabie Orogen is mainly preserved beneath its northern section.We infer that the lower crustal delamination may have mainly occurred in the southern Dabie Orogen,which caused the mantle upwelling responsible for the formation of the granitic magmas emplaced in the middle crust as the low-velocity layers observed there.Continuous deep-level compression likely squeezed the granitic magma upward to intrude the upper crustal UHP metamorphic rocks,forming the'sandwich'velocity structure there;(3)high-velocity updoming is widespread in the crust-mantle transition zone beneath the MLYB.From the Anqing-Guichi ore field northeastward to the Luzong,Tongling,Ningwu and Ningzhen orefields,high-velocity anomalies in the crust-mantle transition zone increase rapidly in size and are widely distributed.The updoming also exists in the crust-mantle transition zone beneath the Jiurui and Edongnan orefields,but the high-velocity anomalies are mainly stellate distributed.The updoming high-velocity zone beneath the MLYB generally extends from the crust-mantle transition zone to the middle crust,different from the velocity structure in the upper crust.The upper crust beneath the Early Cretaceous extension-related Luzong and Ningwu volcanic basins is characterized by high velocity zones,in contrast to the low velocity anomalies beneath the Late Jurassic to Early Cretaceous compression-related Tongling ore field.The MLYB may have undergone a compressive-to-extensional transition during the Yanshanian(Jurassic-Cretaceous)period,during which extensive magmatism occurred.The near mantle-crustal boundary updoming was likely caused by asthenospheric underplating at the base of the lower crust.The magmas may have ascended through major crustal faults,undergoing AFC(assimilation and fractional crystallization)processes,became emplaced in the fault-bounded basins or Paleozoic sequences,eventually forming the many Cu-Fe polymetallic deposits there.
