战场单兵伤害因素与防护需求研究进展

在战场上,单兵身体综合素质的高低、装备的优劣,是决定战斗胜败的基本因素。不论是战争、维和,还是非军事行动,概莫能外。

基于Rockfall数值模拟的边坡落石防护网修复加固方案研究∗

某水电站尾水支洞边坡多次发生落石灾害,原被动防护网已发生局部破损,严重威胁着尾水支洞施工期和运行期的安全,需对原防护网进行修复加固。由于山体陡峭、地貌复杂,人工调查无法确定落石源,采用高精度无人机航摄初步排查出四处可疑危险源区域,利用Rockfall 软件进行落石轨迹模拟计算,通过对比分析计算成果与观测到的落石落点位置与威胁区域分布情况,反分析确定了两处落石源。在此基础上,根据落石源的落石运动特征,复核分析了原防护能力不足的原因,发现原防护网的能级和高度不足是导致落石灾害发生的主要原因。通过提高防护网的能级和高度,提出了原位修复和增高加固两种方案。研究结果表明：两种方案均能有效减小落石威胁区域面积、降低落石率、改善运动特征参数。其中增高加固方案的防护效果更加显著,落石被全部拦截,落石弹跳高度和动能的最大值分别降低了69.64%、66.02%。对被动防护网破损部位的修复加固,综合考虑现场实际情况与落石模拟计算成果进行修复方案设计更为科学合理。研究成果可为该工程的落石防护方案提供科学依据,为类似工程设计与落石分析提供参考。

Cadmium removal mechanistic comparison of three Fe-based nanomaterials: Water-chemistry and roles of Fe dissolution

● nZVI, S-nZVI, and nFeS were systematically compared for Cd(II) removal. ● Cd(II) removal by nZVI involved coprecipitation, complexation, and reduction. ● The predominant reaction for Cd(II) removal by S-nZVI and nFeS was replacement. ● A simple pseudo-second-order kinetic can adequately fit Fe(II) dissolution. Cadmium (Cd) is a common toxic heavy metal in the environment. Taking Cd(II) as a target contaminant, we systematically compared the performances of three Fe-based nanomaterials (nano zero valent iron, nZVI; sulfidated nZVI, S-nZVI; and nano FeS, nFeS) for Cd immobilization under anaerobic conditions. Effects of nanomaterials doses, initial pH, co-existing ions, and humic acid (HA) were examined. Under identical conditions, at varied doses or initial pH, Cd(II) removal by three materials followed the order of S-nZVI > nFeS > nZVI. At pH 6, the Cd(II) removal within 24 hours for S-nZVI, nFeS, and nZVI (dose of 20 mg/L) were 93.50%, 89.12% and 4.10%, respectively. The fast initial reaction rate of nZVI did not lead to a high removal capacity. The Cd removal was slightly impacted or even improved with co-existing ions (at 50 mg/L or 200 mg/L) or HA (at 2 mg/L or 20 mg/L). Characterization results revealed that nZVI immobilized Cd through coprecipitation, surface complexation, and reduction, whereas the mechanisms for sulfidated materials involved replacement, coprecipitation, and surface complexation, with replacement as the predominant reaction. A strong linear correlation between Cd(II) removal and Fe(II) dissolution was observed, and we proposed a novel pseudo-second-order kinetic model to simulate Fe(II) dissolution.
