基于非线性破坏准则的边坡稳定性分析

Baker提出的非线性破坏准则是一种广义的岩土体强度准则,常规的M-C强度准则、格里菲斯强度准则以及Hoek-Brown强度准则均为其特例。该准则通过大量的三轴试验引入无量纲强度参数A,n和T,其中A为尺度参数用于控制剪切强度的大小;n为准则曲线的次数用于控制曲率;T为转换参数用于控制准则曲线与σ轴的位置,并反映其无量纲拉伸强度。以Baker非线性强度准则为基础,以极限分析上限法为工具,采用"切线法"思想研究了静、动荷载下边坡的稳定性,将边坡的稳定性问题转化为含多变量的数学优化问题,并给出其最优解。通过算例分析,研究了非线性强度参数对边坡稳定系数与屈服加速度系数的影响。结果表明:边坡稳定系数随无量纲参数A,T的增大而增大;边坡屈服加速度系数随坡高、坡角的增加而降低。     

Model Calculations of Total Maximum Daily Loads of Mercury for Drainage Lakes1

Abstract: The Watershed Analysis Risk Management Framework watershed model was enhanced to simulate the transport and fate of mercury and to calculate the fish mercury concentrations (FMC) attained by fish through the food web. The model was applied to Western Lake Superior Basin of Minnesota, which has many peat lands and lakes. Topographic, land use, and soil data were used to set up the model. Meteorology and precipitation chemistry data from nearby monitoring stations were compiled to drive the model. Simulated flow and mercury concentrations for several stream stations were comparable to available data. The model was used to perform mercury total maximum daily load calculations for two contrasting drainage lakes (Wild Rice Lake and Whiteface Reservoir). The model results for wet deposition, dry deposition, evasion, watershed yield, and soil sequestration of mercury were comparable with available actual data. The model predicted lake ice cover from November to April and weak stratification in summer, typical of shallow lakes in cold regions. The simulated sulfate decrease and methylmercury increase near the lake bottom in late summer are caused by sulfate reduction and mercury methylation that occur in the surficial sediment. Simulated FMC were within the range of observed values and the R² of correlation between the simulated and observed FMC was 0.77. Under the 1989‐2004 base condition, the average simulated FMC of four‐year‐old walleye was 0.31 μg/g for Whiteface Reservoir and 0.15 μg/g for Wild Rice Lake. The FMC criterion in Minnesota is 0.2 μg/g. Wild Rice Lake already meets this criterion without any load reduction. The model showed that a 65% reduction in atmospheric mercury deposition will not, by itself, allow Whiteface Reservoir to meet the criterion in 15 years. Additional best management practices will be needed to reduce 50% of the watershed input.

建设项目竣工环保验收环境风险检查中的问题及对策

环境风险检查是建设项目竣工环保验收的一项重要内容,但在实际工作中,由于缺乏相应指标体系和标准规范的支持,通常被简化甚至忽略。针对目前中国环境污染事故频发现状,指出应进一步强化环境风险检查的重要地位,启动项目环境风险验收,并对相关技术规范、标准等的制定方法及内容提出了具体建议。     

城市公交车厢内噪声监测与分析

主要对城市公交车厢内的噪声进行监测分析,用等效连续A声级和室内噪声评价指标对监测数据进行分析,评估车厢内的声音品质。结果表明,单纯用A声级不能准确反映公交车厢内的噪声污染状况,用室内噪声标准NCB曲线分析的结果与乘客的主观感受相关性良好,建议用A声级和NCB标准曲线综合考虑制定公交车厢内的噪声标准。     

中国农村绿色发展绩效的空间差异

运用多种DEA模型与Gini准则相结合的方法,采用2003—2012年中国31个省、直辖市和自治区农村数据,对中国及其各地区农村绿色发展绩效值进行了动态测算与分析,在此基础上,对各省市及其所属地区农村绿色发展绩效值进行排名和分析。结果表明,从全国层面来看,中国农村绿色发展绩效整体上呈现上升趋势,如综合绩效值由2.184上升至2.824,表明全国在关注农村经济发展的同时越来越注重环境保护,注重资源和能源的节约,从而促进了全国农村地区绿色发展绩效的提高;从分区域来看,农村绿色发展绩效存在地区差异,绿色发展绩效较高地区是东北,年均值为2.502,西北次之,年均值为2.385,华北、华东和中南地区绩效值相对偏低;进一步地,各省、直辖市和自治区农村绿色发展绩效逐年呈现上升趋势,但有部分省市,如辽宁、河北和山西等,农村绿色发展绩效值偏低,甚至低于该省市所在地区的平均绩效值,这不仅反映了该省市农村绿色发展绩效较低,而且表明了该省市农村绿色发展绩效的高低制约着其所在地区农村整体绿色发展绩效的提升。此外,由于不同省、直辖市和自治区在资源禀赋、技术水平、政策和制度环境等方面不同,农村绿色发展的绩效值在省际之间存在较大差异。基于研究结果,在今后我国农村地区绿色发展过程中,一方面,需要加大绿色资源的投入,为农村绿色发展提供基本的条件;另一方面,需要加大对农村绿色劳动力的投入,确保为农村绿色发展提供高素质劳动力;与此同时,还要不断提高绿色技术水平,为农村绿色发展创造良好的技术条件,以此促进我国农村地区绿色绩效的进一步提高。     

基于Ubiquitous-Joint模型的层状岩坡稳定性分析

在应力的作用下,层状岩土体表现出来的力学行为比较复杂,目前广泛使用的各向同性模型不再适用,因此,有必要建立合理描述层状岩质边坡的力学模型。以某公路边坡为工程背景,首先,探讨了层状岩质边坡的失稳机制;然后,利用快速拉格朗日差分法(FLAC3D),建立该边坡的数值分析模型,探讨了强度折减技术在U-biquitous-Joint模型中的实施方法,即对岩体和层理面参数同时进行折减,采用计算不收敛作为边坡临界失稳判据;最后,通过数值计算,分析层状岩质边坡稳定性的影响因素,得到边坡整体安全系数F随节理倾角β先减小后增大,呈现两头高中间低的形态。     

Case study: T2 Laboratories explosion

A tragic explosion resulting from a runaway chemical reaction occurred at the T2 Laboratories, Inc. facility in December 2007. The U.S. Chemical Safety Board (CSB) completed an incident investigation of the T2 explosion, identifying the root cause as a failure to recognize the runaway reaction hazard associated with the chemical it was producing. Understanding the consequences of process upset conditions is critical to determine risk. This paper will focus on lessons learned from this incident including a comprehensive hazard assessment for reactive chemicals as well as proper collection and application of adiabatic calorimetry data to characterize the chemical reaction and determine appropriate mitigation strategies. Examples will be provided to establish safer operating conditions, implement safeguards and reduce the overall risk.     

对中国排污收费制度改革的思考

排污收费制度是中国环境政策中一个核心的管理手段。它是我国为强化环境管理，运用经济手段，促进工业企业污染防治的一个独特的制度。在新的市场经济体制下和环境目标下，这项制度已不能适应社会主义市场经济发展的需要，因而在必要进行改革以适应新形势下环境保护工作的需要。在分析现行排污收费制度基础上，对我国现行的收费制度、政策和标准等的改革提出见解。
