An Analytical Solution for Three-Dimensional Diffraction of Plane P-Waves by a Hemispherical Alluvial Valley with Saturated Soil Deposits

An analytical solution for the three-dimensional scattering and diffraction of plane P-waves by a hemispherical alluvial valley with saturated soil deposits is developed by employing Fourier-Bessel series expansion technique. Unlike previous studies, in which the saturated soil deposits were simulated with the single-phase elastic theory, in this paper, they are simulated with Biot's dynamic theory for saturated porous media, and the half space is assumed as a single-phase elastic medium. The effects of the dimensionless frequency, the incidence angle of P-wave and the porosity of soil deposits on the surface displacement magnifications of the hemispherical alluvial valley are investigated. Numerical results show that the existence of a saturated hemispherical alluvial valley has much influence on the surface displacement magnifications. It is more reasonable to simulate soil deposits with Biot's dynamic theory when evaluating the displacement responses of a hemispherical alluvial valley with an incidence of P-waves.

Study of three elastic-plastic constitutive models by non-proportional finite deformations of OFHC copper

Experimental stress-strain data of OFHC copper first under torsion to 13% and then under torsion-tension to about 10% are used to study the characteristics of three elastic-plastic constitutive models: Chaboche's super-positional nonlinear model, Dafalias and Popov's two surface model and Watanabe and Atluri's version of the endochronic model. The three models, originally oriented for infinitesimal deformation, have been extended for finite deformation. The results show (a) the Mises-type yield surface used in the three models brings about significant departure of the predictions from the experimental data; (b) Chaboche's and Dafalias' models are easier than Watanabe and Atluri's model in determining the material parameters in them, and (c) Chaboche's and Watanabe & Atluri's models produce almost the same prediction to the data, while Dafalias' model cannot accurately predict the plastic deformations when a loading path changes in its direction.

Plastic stress-strain fields and blunting effects during large deformations

Plastic stress-strain fields of two types of steel specimens loaded to large deformations are studied. Computational results demonstrate that, owing to the fact that the hardening exponent of the material varies as strain enlarges and the blunting of the crack tip, the well known HRR stress field in the plane strain model can only hold for the stage of a small plastic strain. Plastic dilatancy is shown to have substantial effects on strain distributions and blunting. To justify the constitutive equations used for analysis and to check the precision of computations, the load-deflection of a three-point bend beam and the load-elongation of an axisymmetric bar notched by a V-shaped cut were tested and recorded. The computed curves are in good accordance with experimental data.

Asymptotic solutions to a class of nonlinear oscillation systems

In this paper, we present an asymptotic method for the analysis of a class of strongly nonlinear oscillators, derive second-order approximate solutions to them expressed in terms of their amplitudes and phases, and obtain the equations governing the amplitudes and phases, by which the amplitudes of the corresponding limit cycles and their behaviour can be determined. As an example, we investigate the modified van der Pol oscillator and give the second-order approximate analytical solution of its limit cycle. The comparison with the numerical solutions shows that the two results agree well with each other.

Plasma-Arc Technology For The Thermal Treatment Of Chemical Wastes

Plasma-arc technology was developed to dispose of chemical wastes from a chemical plant by the Institute of Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS-IMECH). A pilot plant system with this technology was constructed to destroy two types of chemical wastes. The system included shredding, mixing, and feeding subsystems, a plasma-arc reactor of 150 kW, an off-gas burning subsystem, and a scrubbing subsystem. The additives (CaO, SiO2, and Fe) were added into the reactor to form vitrified slag and capture the hazardous elements. The molten slag was quickly quenched to form an amorphous glassy structure. A direct current (DC) experimental facility of 30kW with plasma-arc technology was also set up to study the pyrolysis process in the laboratory, and the experimental results showed the cooling speed is the most important factor for good vitrified structure of the slag. According to previous tests, the destruction and removal efficiency (DRE) for these chemical wastes was more than 99.999%, and the polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) concentration in the solid residues was in the range of 1.28 to 12.9mg/kg, which is far below the Chinese national emission limit for the hazardous wastes. A simplified electromagneto model for numerical simulation was developed to predict the temperature and velocity fields. This model can make satisfactory maximum temperature and velocity distributions in the arc region, as well as the results by the magneto hydrodynamic approach.

利用DSC和EPR技术研究杜仲种子的贮藏条件

种子贮藏稳定性对于种质资源的长期保存具有重要意义，目前关于种子贮藏的最新理论为玻璃态理论，该理论认为种子的玻璃化有利于种子的长期贮藏。当种子处于玻璃态时，玻璃化物质的高度粘滞性降低了种子细胞内分子流动性，阻止了细胞质中分子的扩散，从而减少老化过程中细胞结构的损伤和化学组分的变化，延缓种子老化劣变反应速率，延长贮藏寿命。评价玻璃态的一个重要指标是玻璃化转变温度，当种子贮藏于玻璃化温度或以下10℃～30℃范围内时，种子具有最佳的贮藏稳定性。因此，检测种子的玻璃化转变温度对于种子的长期有效贮藏具有重要指导意义。 本研究将差示量热扫描技术（DSC）与电子顺磁共振波谱仪技术（EPR）应用于杜仲种子玻璃化转变温度方面的研究。在DSC方法中，选用4.4%～31.6%含水量范围的杜仲种胚分别进行了DSC图谱扫描。EPR方法选用3-羧基-2,2,5,5-四甲基吡咯烷-1-氧（3-carboxy-2,2,5,5-tetramethylpyrrolidine-1-oxyl，CP）和2,2,6,6-四甲基哌啶（4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy，TEMPO）作为探针标记杜仲种胚， 利用EPR技术测定不同含水量杜仲种胚的分子运动，通过对EPR图谱参数的分析计算，最终确定不同含水量杜仲种胚的玻璃化转变温度。 DSC实验结果显示，含水量为22.3%、28.0%、31.6%的杜仲种胚在0℃ 左右出现了一个水的熔融峰。该熔融峰的面积代表了自由水含量的多少，随着种胚含水量的降低该熔融峰面积减小。4.4%～31.6%含水量范围的杜仲种胚在-28℃左右还出现了一个熔融峰，推测此峰为杜仲种胚中某类物质熔融所形成的熔融峰。然而在此曲线上我们未观察到标志玻璃化转变的“台阶”出现。 CP-EPR实验的结果表明，利用EPR测定得到含水量为4.4%～11.6%的杜仲种胚在-110℃～20℃温度范围内，同一含水量的杜仲种胚随着温度的升高，分子运动速率加快;在同一温度条件下，高含水量的种胚比低含水量种胚的分子运动速率快。通过CP-EPR波谱两外缘峰最大距离（2Azz）的测定和数据统计分析，得到含水量为4.4%、5.7%、8.6%、10.3%、11.6%杜仲种胚的玻璃化转变温度分别约为44℃、25℃、4℃、-31℃、-43℃。可以把测定的杜仲种胚的这几个含水量的玻璃化转变温度与杜仲种子贮藏相结合，用于指导杜仲种子的贮藏。 TEMPO-EPR实验测定分析得到含水量为2.1%、3.4%、4.8%、8.3%、11.2% 的杜仲种胚的玻璃化转变温度分别为-21℃、-18℃、-24℃、-20℃、-27℃，玻璃化转变温度随含水量升高其变化的规律不明显，这与CP-EPR实验测得的结果有着较明显的差别。通过分析，认为对于脂质含量较高的杜仲种胚，随着含水量的降低，作为标记化合物的TEMPO随着脱水进入脂相，从而不能真实反映出不同含水量种胚的分子运动情况。与TEMPO标记相比，CP标记可能能够更真实地反映不同含水量杜仲种胚细胞质分子运动的情况，根据其分子运动情况得到的玻璃化转变温度更准确。
