先期振动对高聚物胶凝堆石料动变形特性的影响

先期振动对土石坝地震变形影响显著。通过开展不同先期动应力作用下的动三轴试验,研究了先期振动对未加固堆石料和高聚物胶凝堆石料动变形特性的影响。结果表明:先期振动对未加固堆石料和高聚物胶凝堆石料的弹性轴应变无明显影响,但显著降低了其塑性轴应变;未加固堆石料和高聚物胶凝堆石料的残余变形在先期振动影响下显著减小,与未经受先期振动的试样相比,先期动应力为40%围压的试样,最大残余剪应变降低幅度和最大残余体应变降低幅度的平均值分别为48.1%和42.0%;先期动应力为80%围压的试样,最大残余剪应变降低幅度和最大残余体应变降低幅度的平均值分别为80.9%和71.6%。先期动应力幅值越大,再次经历动应力时未加固堆石料和高聚物胶凝堆石料产生的残余变形越小,抵抗变形能力提高越明显。最大残余变形的降低幅度与固结比、围压及高聚物含量无关。随后修正了沈珠江动残余变形模型,修正后的残余变形模型可以反映高聚物对堆石料残余剪应变和残余体应变的影响。与未经受先期振动的试样相比,先期动应力为40%围压的高聚物胶凝堆石料(高聚物质量比R_p=2%)的改进残余变形模型参数c₁和c₄分别降低了27.7%和61.2%;先期动应力为80%围压的高聚物胶凝堆石料(R_p=2%)的改进残余变形模型参数c₁和c₄分别降低了68.8%和79.3%。     

Widening the Panama Canal and U.S. ports: historical and economic impact analyses

ABSTRACT

The economic history of the U.S. illustrates how the role of many cities has been changed by being seaports or located on navigable rivers or lakes. Based on the widening of the Panama Canal in 2016, the West Coast ports that include the west coast seaports of California, Oregon, and Washington were expected to become less important, while the freight shares of the East Coast and Gulf ports would increase. By how much it has been not easy to measure or predict so far, but this study attempted to define some of the key parameters in the measurement. As well as several relevant background topics, both the demand- and supply-side versions of the National Interstate Economic Model, have been applied for the measurement of economic impacts. U.S. port authorities and policy makers at the local and national levels who respond and develop plans for coping with the new realities of the Panama Canal are able to understand the extent to which changes in shippers’ and land-mode transporters’ behaviors would undermine the logistics and the costs of their activities. Therefore, this study is important for a diverse spectrum of port development strategies in the U.S. to respond to the Canal expansion.

Young drivers and graduated licensing: The Ontario case

Despite improvements in road safety over the past several decades, accident rates remain high for young drivers. One accident countermeasure that is expected to improve the safety record of this group is graduated licensing. The philosophy behind this licensing system is that novice drivers, of whom the majority are young, should be restricted to relatively safe driving environments during the initial learning period. Graduated licensing was implemented in the Province of Ontario, Canada in 1994. The objective of this study is to estimate the potential benefits and costs for young drivers associated with two components of the Ontario graduated licensing package: the late-night driving curfew and the high-speed roadway restrictions. Based on accident and travel data for the year 1988, accident-involvement rates per kilometre driven were calculated for different driver groups for various combinations of time of day and roadway speed limit. These rates were then applied to the expected mobility profiles of young drivers affected by graduated licensing. The results of the study support the late-night curfew and suggest that this component of the licensing package should reduce total accident involvements for the affected group by up to 10 percent and fatal accident involvements by up to 24 percent, while reducing their total driving by only four percent. By contrast, the empirical evidence suggest that the high-speed roadway restrictions are likely to increase accident involvements, and thus it is strongly recommended that this component of Ontario's graduated licensing package be changed.
