脉状矿床开采维护矿山整体稳定性的一般原则和方法

含金石英脉群类型的矿床，当采深达到一定程度而采空区又未进行适当处理时，矿山的整体稳定性应予以充分注意。可采取的措施和方法有：在采矿设计中，尽量改善采场围岩的应力环境；为防止岩移“突破口”的形成，处于某些关键部位的采场，应适当进行支护、充填或加固。

体外CFRP筋预应力混凝土箱梁长期受力性能试验研究

碳纤维(CFRP)筋具有优异的物理力学性能,可用于替代传统的预应力钢筋。制作了体外配置碳纤维筋预应力混凝土箱梁模型,对持续均布荷载作用箱梁的截面应力重分布、长期挠曲变形及裂缝发展等规律进行了1001 d的试验观测。基于素混凝土柱体的实测徐变系数,运用双线性法和曲率法分别对试验箱梁的长期挠曲变形进行预测。试验结果表明:受压钢筋应变较初值增长225%～268%,受拉钢筋的应变较初值增长36.2～38.6%,混凝土表面压应变较初值增长164%～224%。按现行设计规范计算长期荷载作用特征裂缝宽度较实测值偏小11.8%～55.5%。跨中长期挠曲变形实测值为初始变形的2.32～2.42倍,较现行设计规范取值偏大18.5%。

The impact of relative radiometric calibration on the accuracy of kNN-predictions of forest attributes

The k-nearest-neighbour (kNN) algorithm is widely applied for the estimation of forest attributes using remote sensing data. It requires a large amount of reference data to achieve satisfactory results. Usually, the number of available reference plots for the kNN-prediction is limited by the size of the area covered by a terrestrial reference inventory and remotely sensed imagery collected from one overflight. The applicability of kNN could be enhanced if adjacent images of different acquisition dates could be used in the same estimation procedure. Relative radiometric calibration is a prerequisite for this. This study focuses on two empirical calibration methods. They are tested on adjacent LANDSAT TM scenes in Austria. The first, quite conventional one is based on radiometric control points in the overlap area of two images and on the determination of transformation parameters by linear regression. The other, recently developed method exploits the kNN-cross-validation procedure. Performance and applicability of both methods as well as the impact of phenology are discussed.     

Advances in titanium metal injection molding

The approaches to production of titanium powder injection molded parts are reviewed. Historically, oxygen levels have been too high for structural use (particularly with the Ti-6Al-4V alloy). However, recent advances in starting powders, binders and sintering facilities now allow oxygen levels in the Ti-6Al-4V alloy to be controlled to about 0.2 wt.% oxygen. This should result in significant expansion of the titanium PIM market place into aerospace, automobiles, surgical instruments, dentistry, communication devices (such as computers and cell phones), knives and guns. __________ Translated from Poroshkovaya Metallurgiya, Vol. 46, No. 5–6 (455), pp. 118–125, 2007.     

Finite element modelling of skeletal muscles coupled with fatigue

In this study, Hill's muscle theory coupled with fatigue was proposed to describe mechanical behaviours of skeletal muscles. The force developed by a fatigued muscle was described by a muscle fatigue formula which was a time function of the activation α_a and the stretch λ. The modified Hill's muscle theory was hence incorporated into a three-dimensional (3D) finite element model using the PAK finite element code. In this paper, the theoretical derivation of the 3D muscle model was firstly described. After presenting the method of establishing the finite element programme, a case example of studying the mechanical response of a frog gastrocnemius muscle was used to illustrate the applicability of the proposed methodology. The effects of the muscle fatigue on the deformation as well as the stress and strain distribution of the frog muscle subject to a cyclic activation function have been determined. An experiment capturing the real-time shape change of a frog muscle was also conducted to assess the applicability of the proposed method. A comparison between the deformed shapes of the predictive model and the frog muscles was also made. It was shown that the method is capable of providing a reasonable model for describing the mechanical behaviour of skeletal muscles.
