In order to have more information on the behavior of the clay soils of Diamniadio, free swelling tests followed by load-discharge cycles were carried out according to standard NF P 94-090-1. These tests were carried out using an Oedometric device on the three samples from the study site (sandy clays with calcareous concretion, marls with crumbs and laminated marls with attapulgite) to apprehend their swelling aspects in saturated conditions. For the free swelling test, a determination of the different swelling phases will be carried out followed by a comparison of the rate of evolution of the phases for the three samples from the site. In the same vein, the compressibility characteristics of the samples will also be provided from load-unload Oedometric tests. Thereafter, we proceed to a comparison of the void index at the initial state of the samples after two charge-discharge cycles and the influence of the cycles on the reorganization of the internal structure of the samples. These studies will provide more information on the swelling behavior of Diamniadio soils in the presence of water.展开更多

On the basis of expression of speed of sound in inhomogeneous medium and generalized equation of continuity of mass obtained in papers [1,2] respectively, it is proved that so called internal gravitation waves do not exist in nature. This concept appeared as a result of incorrect interpretation of incompressibility of medium. Correct understanding of criteria of compressibility or incompressibility leads to qualitatively new understanding of homogeneity or heterogeneity of medium, in particular—only strongly inhomogeneous medium can be incompressible while weakly inhomogeneous medium is always compressible. Besides, it is shown that in inhomogeneous media additional terms are added to known hydrodynamic (gas dynamic) correlations applicable to any medium which disappear at transfer to homogeneous model of medium.展开更多

To systematically discuss the effect of compressibility in different metallic rod-target combinations, we construct three cases, i.e., the penetrations by the more compressible rod into the less compressible target, rod into the analogously compressible target, and the less compressible rod into the more compressible target. The effects of volumetric strain, internal energy, and strength on the penetration efficiency are analyzed simultaneously. It indicates that the compressibility of the rod and target increases the pressure at the rod/target interface. The more compressible rod/target has larger volumetric strain and higher internal energy. Both the larger volumetric strain and higher strength enhance the penetration or anti-penetration ability. On the other hand, the higher internal energy weakens the penetration or anti-penetration ability. The two trends conflict, but the volumetric strain dominates in the variation of the penetration efficiency, which would not approach the hydrodynamic limit if the rod and target are not analogously compressible. However, if the compressibility of the rod and target is analogous, it has little effect on the penetration efficiency.展开更多

For WHA rod penetrating PMMA at 2 km/s <V <5 km/s, the compressibility has a significant effect on the penetration efficiency. We clarify how compressibility affects the penetration efficiency by changing the stagnation pressures of the rod and target. For WHA rod penetrating 4340 Steel and 6061-T6 Al at 2 km/s < V < 10 km/s, the effect of strength is strong and the effect of compressibility is negligible at lower impact velocity, whilst the effect of strength is weak and the effect of compressibility becomes stronger at higher impact velocity. For the copper jet penetrating 4030 Steel, 6061-T6 Al and PMMA. the virtual origin model is adopted, and the compressibility and strength are implicitly considered by the linear relation between the penetration velocity and impact velocity. The effects of compressibility and target resistance on penetration efficiency are studied. The results show that the target resistance has a significant effect on the penetration efficiency. Howver PMMA is much more compressible than copper and the huge difference of compressibility has a significant effect on the penetration by hypervelocity copper jet into PMMA.展开更多

This result leads to a new inference: incompressible wave equation with time and space structure of sonic special relativity is only different description of approximate compressible flow. This conclusion can be extended to Euler equation, and arise the interest of "compressible expression" of Maxwell equation. To study the rule of compressibility and thermodynamic character of metastructure field, a try is made by the using Kaman Tsian virtual gas method, this would give the relation, similar as mass and energy of special relativity theory. At first searching a transformation, witch can transform the compressible wave equation to the incompressible flow, but it is almost equal Lorenz time and space relation. So arrive to the conclusion: incompressible wave equation with approximate Lorentz transformation is only different description of compressible flow. This conclusion is expected be used to Maxwell equation, because its wave equation is also perfectly equal form. To search the rule of electromagnet and gravity field, by the using of Kaman Tsian virtual gas method, the relation of mass and energy of relativity theory is given.展开更多

It is also shown that through carefully choosing the geometric features(i.e. the dimensions and the alignment of the rotating triangles as well as the angles between them) and the direction along which the linear compressibility is measured, one may control the magnitude and range of the NLC. All this provides a novel but effective method of manufacturing the systems which can be tailored to achieve particular values of NLC to fit particular practical applications.展开更多

Such ...An earlier fluid mechanical model of a tornado [1], that assumed constant air density, forecast a horizontal rotary wind speed that decreased inversely as the distance increased from the tornado’s central axis. Such a velocity function implies that the force of friction is zero. However, if compressibility of the air is included in the model, and everything else is kept the same, dynamics changes the velocity structure to being constant and independent of the radius. Friction is also zero in this case. Observations are needed to find out what the wind structure is doing.展开更多

文摘We further consider the effect of rod strength by employing the compressible penetration model to study the effect of compressibility on hypervelocity penetration.Meanwhile, we define different instances of penetration efficiency in various modified models and compare these penetration efficiencies to identify the effects of different factors in the compressible model. To systematically discuss the effect of compressibility in different metallic rod-target combinations, we construct three cases, i.e., the penetrations by the more compressible rod into the less compressible target, rod into the analogously compressible target, and the less compressible rod into the more compressible target. The effects of volumetric strain, internal energy, and strength on the penetration efficiency are analyzed simultaneously. It indicates that the compressibility of the rod and target increases the pressure at the rod/target interface. The more compressible rod/target has larger volumetric strain and higher internal energy. Both the larger volumetric strain and higher strength enhance the penetration or anti-penetration ability. On the other hand, the higher internal energy weakens the penetration or anti-penetration ability. The two trends conflict, but the volumetric strain dominates in the variation of the penetration efficiency, which would not approach the hydrodynamic limit if the rod and target are not analogously compressible. However, if the compressibility of the rod and target is analogous, it has little effect on the penetration efficiency.

The effects of compressibility and target resistance on penetration efficiency are studied. The results show that the target resistance has a significant effect on the penetration efficiency. Howver PMMA is much more compressible than copper and the huge difference of compressibility has a significant effect on the penetration by hypervelocity copper jet into PMMA.

文摘In rockfill dam engineering,particle breakage of rockfill materials is one of the major factors resulting in dam settlement.In this study,one-dimensional compression tests on a series of coarse granular materials with artificially-graded particle size distributions(PSDs)were carried out.The tests focused on understanding the role of initial PSDs in the dense packing density,compressibility and crushability of coarse granular materials.The effects of fractal dimension(D)and size polydispersity(θ)of PSDs were quantitatively analyzed.Two different loading stages were identified from the logarithms of the stress-strain relationships,with the turning point marked as the yield stress.A similar effect of initial PSDs was observed on the packing density and low-pressure modulus of coarse granular materials.The packing density and low-pressure modulus increased monotonically withθ,and their peak values were attained at a D value of approximately 2.2.However,there was no unique correspondence between the dense packing density and low-pressure modulus.The particle breakage was influenced differently by the initial PSDs,and it decreased with the values of D andθ.The emergence of the unique ultimate state was also identified from both the compression curves and PSDs of the samples after the tests.The potential implications of the test results in the design of both low and high rockfill dams were also demonstrated.

文摘Soil compressibility parameters are important indicators in the geotechnical field and are affected by various factors such as natural conditions and human interference.When the sample size is too large,conventional methods require massive human and financial resources.In order to reasonably simulate the compressibility parameters of the sample,this paper firstly adopts the correlation analysis to select seven influencing factors.Each of the factors has a high correlation with compressibility parameters.Meanwhile,the proportion of the weights of the seven factors in the Bayesian neural network is analyzed based on Garson theory.Secondly,an output model of the compressibility parameters of BR-BP silty clay is established based on Bayesian regularized BP neural network.Finally,the model is used to simulate the measured compressibility parameters.The output results are compared with the measured values and the output results of the traditional LM-BP neural network.The results show that the model is more stable and has stronger nonlinear fitting ability.The output of the model is basically consistent with the actual value.Compared with the traditional LMBP neural network model,its data sensitivity is enhanced,and the accuracy of the output result is significantly improved,the average value of the relative error of the compression coefficient is reduced from 15.54%to 6.15%,and the average value of the relative error of the compression modulus is reduced from 6.07%to 4.62%.The results provide a new technical method for obtaining the compressibility parameters of silty clay in this area,showing good theoretical significance and practical value.

文摘Hydraulic fracturing technology plays a key role in improving the recovery rate of shale gas.The improvement of permeability in relation to hydraulic fracturing depends on changes brought about by the proppant on the fracture structure in reservoirs.Then it is of great significance to describe the microscopic changes during this process by means of an accurate theoretical model.In this study,based on the heterogeneity of shale fracture and the compaction and embedment of a proppant,we proposed a permeability model to examine the combined effects of a proppant and stress to describe the change mechanism in permeability.Further,changes in fracture width and porosity were considered,and a calculation model of fracture compressibility under proppant compaction and embedment was proposed.The difference from previous studies is that the compressibility and permeability of supported fractures can be further quantified and analyzed by this model.Moreover,its rationality was verified by publicly released test data.The results show that,the compressive effect of stress and the embedding of proppant both have a negative impact on shale permeability.
文摘The effects of compressibility on the Rayleigh-Taylor instability in Z-pinch implosion plasmas are investigated by means of simple slab geometry.The linear mode equation,which includes main steady-state quantities and their gradients,is derived.Numerical solutions are presented.The incompressible fluid result is also obtained.These results indicate that the linear growth rate of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability for the compressible magnetohydrodynamic fluid is far larger than one in the incompressible situation.Therefore,the compressible systems are all more unstable than the incompressible ones.

文摘A new three-dimensional(3D)cellular model based on hinging open-cell Kelvin structure is proposed for its negative compressibility property.It is shown that this model has adjustable compressibility and does exhibit negative compressibility for some certain conformations.And further study shows that the images of compressibility are symmetrical about the certain lines,which indicates that the mechanical properties of the model in the three axial directions are interchangeable and the model itself has a certain geometric symmetry.A comparison of the Kelvin model with its anisotropic form with the dodecahedron model shows that the Kelvin model has stronger negative compressibility property in all three directions.Therefore,a new and potential method to improve negative compressibility property can be derived by selecting the system type with lower symmetry and increasing the number of geometric parameters.
文摘The nonlinear analysis of the combined effect of magnetic field and compressibility on the growth rate of Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) instability has been investigated for inviscid two fluid interface. We have considered an interface-parallel density dependent magnetic field and used Layzer’s approach to analyze the problem. We have also investigated the relative effect of magnetic pressure and hydrodynamic pressure on RT instability through the variation of the ratio of hydromagnetic pressure to magnetic pressure (β). Dynamics of bubble and spike has been studied analytically and numerically. Finally, we have obtained the stability conditions of our result through linear stability

文摘The real pores in digital cores were simplified into three abstractive types,including prolate ellipsoids,oblate ellipsoids and spheroids.The three-dimensional spheroidal-pore model of digital core was established based on mesoscopic mechanical theory.The constitutive relationship of different types of pore microstructure deformation was studied with Eshelby equivalent medium theory,and the effects of pore microstructure on pore volume compressibility under elastic deformation conditions of single and multiple pores of a single type and mixed types of pores were investigated.The results showed that the pore volume compressibility coefficient of digital core is closely related with porosity,pore aspect ratio and volumetric proportions of different types of pores.(1)The compressibility coefficient of prolate ellipsoidal pore is positively correlated with the pore aspect ratio,while that of oblate ellipsoidal pore is negatively correlated with the pore aspect ratio.(2)At the same mean value of pore aspect ratio satisfying Gaussian distribution,the more concentrated the range of pore aspect ratio,the higher the compressibility coefficient of both prolate and oblate ellipsoidal pores will be,and the larger the deformation under the same stress condition.(3)The pore compressibility coefficient increases with porosity.(4)At a constant porosity value,the higher the proportion of oblate ellipsoidal and spherical pores in the rock,the more easier for the rock to deform,and the higher the compressibility coefficient of the rock is,while the higher the proportion of prolate ellipsoidal pores in the rock,the more difficult it is for rock to deform,and the lower the compressibility coefficient of the rock is.By calculating pore compressibility coefficient of ten classical digital rock samples,the presented analytical elliptical-pore model based on real pore structure of digital rocks can be applied to calculation of pore volume compressibility coefficient of digital rock sample.
文摘It is shown that when the compressibility of a fluid is taken into account, the nonlinear term disappears in the Euler equation. The validity of this approach is proved by the example of capillary waves.
文摘An earlier fluid mechanical model of a tornado [1], that assumed constant air density, forecast a horizontal rotary wind speed that decreased inversely as the distance increased from the tornado’s central axis. Such a velocity function implies that the force of friction is zero. However, if compressibility of the air is included in the model, and everything else is kept the same, dynamics changes the velocity structure to being constant and independent of the radius. Friction is also zero in this case. Observations are needed to find out what the wind structure is doing.
