输水隧道在行波激励下的三维地震反应分析

随着大规模调水工程的建设,穿越软土地区的浅埋输水隧道的抗震性能的重要性愈加突出,这就涉及到地震动的输入问题。而对于空间尺度很大的大型输水隧道,地震动输入的空间变化特性即多点输入对输水隧道的地震响应产生重要的影响。所以在考虑了衬砌-水体-围岩的相互作用的同时,还考虑了地震波有限波速传播所引起的行波效应及不同地震动激励方向对三维输水隧道的地震动的影响。结果表明:与地震动一致输入相比,行波效应将对输水隧道的地震响应产生不利的影响。     

圆形和直墙拱形地下隧道地震反应数值模拟对比分析

考虑土与结构动力相互作用的影响,将地基土—地铁区间隧道结构体系视为平面应变问题,建立了土—地铁区间隧道非线性动力相互作用的有限元分析模型,对圆形和直墙拱形隧道的地震反应进行了数值模拟;分析了在相同的埋深和场地条件的情况下不同隧道结构形式在不同地震动作用下的应力、加速度和相对水平位移反应特性。结果表明:圆形隧道结构的应力和相对水平位移反应明显小于直墙拱形隧道。从抗震设计角度考虑,选择隧道形状时应优先采用圆形隧道。

爆炸荷载作用下砌体结构响应的有限元分析

对墙体模型进行简化,用单个混凝土砖块宽度的墙来代替所要分析的整面墙,并采用有限元分析软件LS-DYNA对砌体墙的破坏模式进行数值模拟分析。LS-DYNA的数值模拟结果显示,混凝土砌体墙在不同爆炸荷载作用下会发生不同程度的破坏,破坏的产生首先从墙体中部开始;随着爆炸荷载峰值的提高,砌体墙的破坏逐渐由中间向两端发展,当爆炸荷载峰值压力达到0.36 MPa及以上时,墙体会发生破坏,有块体飞出,并在重力作用下发生倒塌。数值模拟的结果与文献提供的试验结果比较吻合。     

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers in chicken tissues and eggs from an electronic waste recycling area in southeast China

The levels and distributions of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in chicken tissues from an electronic waste (e-waste) recycling area in southeast China were investigated. Human dietary intake by local residents via chicken muscle and eggs was estimated. The mean PBDEs concentrations in tissues ranged from 15.2 to 3138.1 ng/g lipid weight (lw) and in egg the concentration was 563.5 ng/g lw. The results showed that the level of total PBDEs (PPBDEs) in the chicken tissue was 2–3 orders of magnitude higher than those reported in the literature. The large di erence of PPBDEs concentrations between tissues confirmed that the distribution of PBDEs in tissues depend on tissue-specificity rather than the “lipid-compartment”. BDE-209 was the predominant congener (82.5%– 94.7% of PPBDEs) in all chicken tissues except in brain (34.7% of PPBDEs), which indicated that deca-BDE (the major commercial PBDE formulation comprising 65%–70% of total production) was major pollution source in this area and could be bioaccumulated in terrestrial animals. The dietary PBDEs intake of the local residents from chicken muscle and egg, assuming only local bred chickens and eggs were consumed, ranged from 2.2 to 22.5 ng/(day kg body weight (bw)) with a mean value of 13.5 ng/(day kg bw), which was one order of magnitude higher than the value reported in previous studies for consumption of all foodstu s.

Water and sediment toxicity assessment by use of behavioural responses of medicinal leeches

Behaviour has been shown to be a sensitive indicator of chemically induced stress and pathology in aquatic organisms. However, ecotoxicological investigations on medicinal leech are restricted because of scarce leech resources in natural waters. We used artificially bred medicinal leech (Hirudo medicinalis L.) of two different ages: young (1-2 weeks old) and adult leeches (1 year old). Animals were exposed to: (1) waters of Lake Drukshiai-the cooler of Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant, (2) sediments of the river Nemunas and (3) solution of heavy metal model mixture (HMMM). The following behavioural responses of leech were investigated: mobility (number of moving individuals within certain periods of time), avoidance response (number of individuals escaping the tested water or sediments) changes in body shape (contractions of some muscles, abnormal position of suckers) and feeding activity (longevity of attachment process, interruptions of feeding bouts, size of blood meal). Mobility of young leeches was increased in the tested waters of Lake Drukshiai, whereas adult leeches showed no changes of this index. Avoidance response as well as impaired feeding activity (prolonged attachment process or completely suppressed attachment reflex, decreased size of blood meal) was observed in young leeches exposed to the waters from Lake Drukshiai and in adult animals exposed to all three kind of trials mentioned above. Avoidance response and changes in mobility were recorded during the first hour of exposure to tested samples; therefore, these responses can be used as an express method for water and sediment pollution assessment. Impaired feeding activity was recorded after 1-3-week exposure: this response may be used in assessing a chronic toxicity of pollution. Medicinal leech, due to its sensitivity, simplicity of measured indices and ease of laboratory maintenance, can be used as a test organism in ecotoxicity studies.     

Visitor Response to Management Regulations—A Study Among Recreationists in Southern Norway

/ The objectives of nature area management are often twofold: To protect the natural environment and to facilitate recreational use. In order to maintain the natural setting, it is sometimes necessary to regulate the recreational use of an area. In deciding on a management action, one problem can be the lack of knowledge about the effects of management actions on visitors. In order to enhance the knowledge base for future management practices, this study empirically evaluates the effects of management regulations in a Norwegian nature area. In this area camping outside commercial campgrounds was restricted in 1992. The management regulations seems to have influenced the use of Sjodalen for camping in several ways. The number of campers using the area has decreased. The user composition seems to have changed, with new campers in the area after the regulation being more tolerant of human influence on the natural environment than the campers before the regulations. In addition, a considerable proportion of the existing users ceased to stay overnight in Sjodalen, totally or partly due to the regulations. The behavioral response among existing users is related both to environmental preferences and place attachment. Implications for management and future research studies on impact assessment in general, and displacement specifically, are discussed.KEY WORDS: Outdoor recreation; Management regulations; Behavioral response; Displacement, Place attachment     

FLOOD WARNINGS AND FLOOD RESPONSES FOR THE RED RIVER OF THE NORTH1

ABSTRACT The flooding conditions in the basin of the Red River of the North are reviewed in terms of the accuracy of the flood forecasts and the response of both the floodplain occupants and government agencies to these forecasts. The flood prediction methods in Canada and the United States are compared. The accuracy of these prediction measures for the major floods in recent history is reviewed. The differences between the way in which the American and Canadian authorities approach the flood emergencies are outlined. The accuracy of the forecasts are plotted against a number of parameters which reflect the efficiency of the flood fighting measures initiated by those flood forecasts. The significant features of these plots are discussed.
