Developing a method for assessing environmental sustainability based on the Google Earth Engine platform

Environmental sustainability is the foundation and of great significance for the sustainable development of urban agglomerations. Taking the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei urban agglomeration as an example, we developed a method to effectively assess long-term regional environmental sustainability based on the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform. We used the GEE to obtain 5206 Landsat remote sensing images in the region from 1983 to 2016 and developed the comprehensive environmental index (CEI) to assess regional environmental sustainability based on the theme-oriented framework proposed by the United Nations Commission on Sustainable Development. We found that the environmental sustainability of the urban agglomeration showed a trend of first rising, then falling, and then rising again in the past 30 years. The average CEI increased from 0.621 to 0.631 from 1985 to 1990, dropped to the lowest value of 0.618 in 2000, and then rose to the highest value of 0.672 in 2015. In particular, the extent of areas in which environmental sustainability improved (56% of the region) was greater than the extent of areas in which environmental deterioration occurred. The environmental sustainability of Hengshui, Xingtai, and Cangzhou in the southeast of the region has been significantly improved. The method proposed in this study provides an automatic, rapid, and extensible way to assess regional environmental sustainability and provides a scientific reference for improving the sustainability of the regional environment.

混合土物理性质试验研究∗

土体的物理性质与力学性状之间存在一定的联系,研究不同混合比例的混合土的物理性状变化,对于快速测定混合土体的力学参数有很大的帮助.通过对两种原始黏土及人工配制的五种不同混合比例的混合土的物理性质进行研究,探讨混合土的颗粒粒径分布、土粒密度、液限以及塑性指数随混合比例的变化规律.研究结果表明:原始土的性质对混合土体的基本物理性质产生重要的影响.混合土的颗粒粒径分布和土粒密度按混合比例成比例的发生变化,随着混合土中膨润土百分含量的增加,其黏粒含量线性增加,粉粒含量线性减小,砂粒含量线性减小;混合土的液限与塑性指数的变化规律一致,以非线性的方式随着混合土混合比例的变化而变化,其中在混合土中含有膨润土的情况下,这种变化趋势更加明显.

循环温度荷载下管式能量桩荷载传递机理研究

基于模型试验方法,开展加热(制冷)工作模式下,实心和管式能量桩的热响应测试研究;分析多次加热/制冷循环作用下两种能量桩的热力耦合特性,实测桩顶位移、桩身应变、以及桩侧摩阻力等变化规律,并对实际运行过程中实心和管式能量桩的承载特性进行初步讨论。研究结果表明,相同直径的管式能量桩换热效率高于实心能量桩,管式能量桩对加热循环的热响应要高于实心能量桩;多次循环后,能量桩桩顶产生塑性沉降、桩身产生微小的塑性应变,桩侧摩阻力值增加。
