组合稳定剂对透明聚酯玻璃钢防老化偶合效应

本文用人工加速老化方法,研究了两类七种紫外线吸收剂和两种抗氧剂及其组合使用后,对透光聚酯的耐光老化性能影响。试验结果表明,在树脂中加入组合稳定剂后,其防老化效果比单独加入任何一种的效果都好。文中还指出,组合稳定剂产生协同效应的原因有二:一是紫外线吸收剂配合使用后,使吸收光波的强度变大,波长变宽;二是紫外线吸收剂和抗氧剂配合使用,能有效地防止光氧老化反应进行,从而验证了我们提出的透光玻璃钢光老化理论的正确性。

天然海相中间沉积土性质研究

天然沉积物中存在主要由粉质土或粉细砂土含黏性土构成的中间土．通过系统的室内和现场试验，明确了天然海相黏性土和天然海相中间土之间性质的不同．天然中间土天然含水量与液限之比几乎与软质天然海相黏土相似，但是前者相对后者的灵敏度和现场强度更高．粒度分布对锥尖阻力有显著的影响．由于高灵敏度和相对大的渗透性，试样的扰动更加显著地影响了天然海相中间土的力学参数．无侧限抗压强度试验，显著低估了天然海相中间土的强度，而简易三轴固结再压缩剪切试验相对无侧限抗压强度qo试验有显著的改善。

Finite-Element Parametric Study of the Consolidation Behavior of a Trial Embankment on Soft Clay

The paper presents a case study for numerical analysis of the consolidation behavior of an instrumented trial embankment constructed on a soft soil foundation. Details are given to the geological profile, field instrumentation, laboratory test results, and determination of soil parameters for numerical modeling. Embankment settlement is estimated based on one-dimensional consolidation analysis and nonlinear finite-element analysis following Biot’s consolidation theory. Finite-element results are calibrated against the measured field data for a period of more than 3?years. Development and dissipation of excess pore pressure, long-term settlement, and horizontal displacement are predicted and discussed in light of sensitivity of embankment performance to some critical factors through a parametric study.     

Seismic Site Response for Near-Fault Forward Directivity Ground Motions

Forward directivity effects in the near-fault region produce pulse-type motions that differ significantly from ordinary ground motions that occur at greater distances from the causative fault. Current code site factors are based on empirical observations and analyses involving less intense nonpulse ordinary ground motions. Nonlinear site response analyses with bidirectional shaking are performed using representative site profiles to quantify seismic site response effects for intense near-fault motions resulting from forward directivity. Input rock motions are represented with simplified velocity pulses that characterize the amplitude and period of forward directivity motions. Results indicate that site response affects both the amplitude and period of forward directivity pulses, and hence, local site conditions should be considered when evaluating seismic designs in the near-fault region. Stiff soil sites tend to amplify the peak ground velocity and increase the period of pulse-type motions, particularly, when the period of the rock motion coincides with the degraded period of the site. Amplification is limited at soft soil sites by the dynamic strength of the weak soil, so attenuation occurs for intense input motions. This nonlinearity is not reflected in the site factors in current building codes. Guidance is provided for estimating the amplitude and pulse period for velocity pulses at soil sites.     

Suction Stress Characteristic Curve for Unsaturated Soil

The concept of the suction stress characteristic curve (SSCC) for unsaturated soil is presented. Particle-scale equilibrium analyses are employed to distinguish three types of interparticle forces: (1) active forces transmitted through the soil grains; (2) active forces at or near interparticle contacts; and (3) passive, or counterbalancing, forces at or near interparticle contacts. It is proposed that the second type of force, which includes physicochemical forces, cementation forces, surface tension forces, and the force arising from negative pore-water pressure, may be conceptually combined into a macroscopic stress called suction stress. Suction stress characteristically depends on degree of saturation, water content, or matric suction through the SSCC, thus paralleling well-established concepts of the soil–water characteristic curve and hydraulic conductivity function for unsaturated soils. The existence and behavior of the SSCC are experimentally validated by considering unsaturated shear strength data for a variety of soil types in the literature. Its characteristic nature and a methodology for its determination are demonstrated. The experimental evidence shows that both Mohr–Coulomb failure and critical state failure can be well represented by the SSCC concept. The SSCC provides a potentially simple and practical way to describe the state of stress in unsaturated soil.
