    System Reliability Analysis of Reservoir Landslides:Insights from Long-Term Reservoir Operation

    查看更多>>摘要:The reservoir operation awakens numerous landslides with multiple sliding surfaces known as reservoir landslides,and the systematic stability analysis for such landslides is becoming in-creasingly urgent.Taking the Majiagou landslide as an example,this paper analyses the comprehensive performance of the landslide from a probabilistic point of view.Under a reservoir operation cycle,a se-ries of numerical analyses are carried out to simulate the migration of the seepage field,then the dy-namic stability of the landslide is quantified accordingly.Subsequently,the wetting-drying cycles test is used to model the weakening of strength parameters in hydro-fluctuation belt under the long-term res-ervoir operation.Considering the weakening effect of long-term reservoir operation on the hydro-fluctuation belt,the system reliability is evaluated using the Ditlevsen's bounds.The results suggest that the reservoir operation can affect the stability of the landslide by changing the seepage field.The system failure probability gradually rises as the number of wetting-drying cycles increases.Compared with conventional probabilistic analysis that calculates the failure probability of each sliding surface mechanically,analyzing the landslide in terms of system reliability can effectively narrow the failure probability range,which provides an insightful idea for evaluating the systematic stability of analogous reservoir landslides.

    查看更多>>摘要:The mechanical properties of bolts are important factors affecting the shear behavior of bolted joints.In this study,tensile and pure shear tests were conducted on five kinds of bolts made from different materials to measure their tensile and shear parameters.Direct shear tests were conduct-ed to analyze the effects of tensile and shear strength parameters on the shear behavior of bolted joints.The test results showed that the mechanical properties of bolts made from different materials were clearly different and that these differences mainly affected the plastic deformation stage of the bolted joints.The larger the bolt elongation was,the larger the joint shear displacement at bolt failure.The tensile and shear strengths of the bolts were positively correlated with the shear strength of the bolted joints.According to the standard regression analysis,the bolt shear strength had a greater influence than the bolt tensile strength on the bolt contributions when the bolts were perpendicular to the joint surface.Based on the empirical equation for the bolt contribution proposed by Spang,the maximum shear loads in the pure shear test were introduced,and a new equation was established to predict the contributions of bolts.The prediction results obtained using the modified equation were in good agree-ment with the experimental results.

    查看更多>>摘要:This study reveals the temporal and spatial evolution characteristics of the winter night-time urban heat island(UHI)effect in the case of Beijing,China.The land surface temperature(LST)is retrieved by radiative transfer equation by using the remote sensing data from Landsat ETM+/OLI TIRS from 2007 to 2017 for the winter nighttime period,and LST is then divided by the mean-standard deviation method into different levels of thermal landscapes.A combination of the migration calculation of gravity center and multi-directional profile analysis is used to study the directional differ-entiation characteristics of LST and the migratory characteristics of the gravity center of UHI.Finally,the overall temporal and spatial evolution characteristics of winter nighttime surface urban heat island(SUHI)in Beijing are studied,and the possible reasons for the changes are discussed.Results show that Beijing's UHI effect first increased and subsequently decreased from 2007 to 2017.The winter heat is-land in the urban area developed from low-density agglomeration to high-density agglomeration to low-density diffusion.Additionally,the high-level thermal landscapes migrated to the southwest along with the city center of gravity,and the expansion rate is fastest in the southwest,which is directly linked to the changes in the urban construction land.Moreover,the overall spatial distribution of winter night-time LST is high in the east and south and low in the west and north,and is influenced by topography,land cover,urbanization,anthropogenic heat,and other factors as well.

    查看更多>>摘要:Karapınar region(Konya,Türkiye)is one of the important regions of the world in terms of sinkhole formations.The research aimed to map the sinkholes in detail,to determine their spatial distribution and geometrical parameters.For this purpose,the long axes,short axes,depths and the proximity to settlements of the sinkholes were measured and their circumferences and areas were calcu-lated.During the studies,the relationship of the sinkholes with lithology,their cross sections,shapes and the related structures were determined and the sinkholes were divided into five main groups as fol-lowing:Basement rock sinkholes,Obruk Plateau sinkholes,Seyithacı sinkholes,Siyeklik sinkholes and Basin sinkholes.The d/l ratios of each sinkhole group were separately determined and interpreted.Ac-cordingly,most of the d/l ratios are smaller than 0.2.Namely,the long axes are higher than the depth and it indicates that the shallow and wide sinkholes are common in the region.It has been determined that the fracture systems in the region,as well as the lithology and groundwater factors,are quite effec-tive in the formation and distribution of the sinkholes in the Karapınar region.Considering the dis-tance of the sinkholes to the settlements,Seyithacı sinkholes are the most risky group in the region be-cause they are deep and close to the settlements.

    查看更多>>摘要:The mafic-ultramafic intrusion in the XV anomaly area,contains magmatic Fe-Ti ox-ides±(p)ore,is located in the Bafq mining district in the Central Iran.It consists of cumulate and lay-ered Fe-Ti-bearing gabbros and pyroxenites.The mineral assemblages include clinopyroxene,Fe-Ti oxides,plagioclase,amphibole,apatite and sulfides(pyrite and chalcopyrite).The Fe-Ti oxides mainly consist of magnetite-titanomagnetite and ilmenite,which occurred as disseminated,intergrowth,la-mellae(trellis and sandwich textures)and inclusions.Magnetite in the gabbroic rocks is from the near end-member of Fe3O4(<1 wt.% TiO2)to titanomagnetite containing up to 8 wt.% TiO2(about 3.73 wt.% to 26.84 wt.% Ulvospinel(XUsp)).Magnetite in pyroxenite rocks is characterized with TiO2 range from 0.46 wt.% to 3.14 wt.% (XUsp varied from 1.76 wt.% to 10.46 wt.% ).The abundances of V2O3 range from 0.03 wt.% to 1.29 wt.% and 0.24 wt.% to 1.00 wt.% for gabbro and pyroxenite,re-spectively.XUsp contents of magnetite show insignificant correlations with Al2O3 and MgO.The aver-age XIlm in the ilmenite of gabbro is 92% ,whereas it is 90.37% in the pyroxenite rocks.The MgO and V2O3 contents show a slightly positive correlation with TiO2 in ilmenite.The composition of clinopy-roxenes in gabbro and pyroxenite rocks fall in the diopside to augite field with Mg#ranging from 67 to 98 and 74 to 96,respectively.In both rock types,amphiboles are mainly pargasite and rarely actin-olite.Plagioclase in pyroxenite rocks is clustered in the labradorite to andesine fields with a composi-tional ranges of An46-69 and in gabboic rocks fall in two fields with compositional ranges of albite with An0.65-5.95 and labradorite with An50-63.The δ 34S isotopic values cover a limited range from+3.15‰ to+4.10‰ V-CDT consistent with magmatic origin.Fe-Ti mineralization is formed in two stages,minor inclusions of Fe-Ti oxide minerals in the pyroxene and plagioclase crystallized in the early magmatic stage,whereas interstitial oxides formed by fractional crystallization processes that accumulated by gravitational settling in the later stage as intercumulus phase.Gravitational settling process is support-ed by the observation of decreasing the amount of Fe-Ti oxides from Fe-Ti oxide-rich pyroxenite to weak mineralized gabbro(base to top).The high contents of H2O,phosphorate and high initial Ti-Fe in parental magma are the crucial factors controlling the Fe-Ti oxides enrichment and mineralization.
