The results show that the physical indexes of inland fluvial-lacustrine soft soil are close to that of marine soft soil, while its mechanical indexes are higher. However, the variation coefficient of its mechanical indexes is much larger than that of the physical indexes. In addition, it is found that the cone penetration parameters of this soft soil are significantly correlated with its physical and mechanical indexes by establishing a series of empirical relationships between the static point resistance and the natural unit weight, the liquidity index, the quick shear cohesion, and vane shear strength. On the basis of the previous research results, the disturbance strength of inland fluvial-lacustrine soft soil can be converted into in situ strength by deriving the theoretical formula between the vane shear strength and the disturbance degree. The calculation process of the above conversion relation is explained in detail through an engineering case, which indicates that the theoretical formulas have good applicability for inland fluvial-lacustrine soft soil.","PeriodicalId":50738,"journal":{"name":"Applied Rheology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48979363","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At present, the theoretical research methods mainly include mirror image method and conformal transformation method. At present, almost all the research objects in analytical research are homogeneous soil layers. However, in practical engineering, soil layers are often distributed in layers. In this study, the seepage field of layered soil layers is analyzed, and the analytical derivation method of seepage field in heterogeneous media based on traditional conformal transformation method is given, which is verified by numerical simulation. The hydraulic head loss of the medium with better permeability in shallow layer is very small, and the streamline is vertically distributed. In the weak interlayer, the hydraulic head loss is huge, and the streamline bends greatly, showing a strong horizontal distribution and converging towards the center. It can provide theoretical basis for the design of water and soil pressure in practical engineering.","PeriodicalId":50738,"journal":{"name":"Applied Rheology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46943741","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specifically, creep curves were obtained from the triaxial loading and unloading tests and analyzed using the Burgers model. The microstructure of the layered salt rocks before and after the creep test was comparatively analyzed using the dry grinding optical diagram. The results show that the creep deformation of layered salt rocks is mainly viscoelastic under a low deviatoric stress and contains both viscoelastic and viscoplastic deformations when the deviatoric stress is high. With the increase of deviatoric stress, both the instantaneous elastic and plastic strains increase, and the increasing rate becomes lower as the deviatoric stress increases. The creep curves of layered salt rocks can be well represented with the Burgers model. Since the creep leads to fracturing and interlayer rupturing and producing new fluid seepage channels in layered salt rocks, this study has great value for understanding the long-term performance of gas and hydrocarbon liquid storage caverns in layered salt rock formation.","PeriodicalId":50738,"journal":{"name":"Applied Rheology","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135401221","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The main reason is that the limit state functions are highly nonlinear implicit functions of safety factor. Complex numerical iterations are required, which may sometimes lead to computational convergence problems. A new method for computing slope reliability calculation with high efficiency and accuracy was proposed. This method was based on the rigorous limit equilibrium method by modifying normal stresses over the slip surface. The critical horizontal acceleration factor K c {K}_{c} , which can be expressed explicitly, was used to replace the implicit safety factor as a representation of slope stability. The difference between K c {K}_{c} and the known value K c 0 {K}_{c0} was used as the limit state function. Two slope examples were analyzed. The results showed that the calculation results of this method were in good agreement with those of the traditional Morgenstern–Price limit equilibrium method, but the computational efficiency was significantly improved. When this method was combined with the subset simulation method, the calculation time was only a few seconds. Therefore, this method can be used for rapid calculation of slope reliability.","PeriodicalId":50738,"journal":{"name":"Applied Rheology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44996915","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The acceleration and strain results of the tunnel lining under EL Centro seismic waves with different acceleration peak values were studied. Test results show that most of the acceleration values have significant amplification effects compared to input seismic waves, which increased significantly with greater peak values and elevations. Tensile deformations appear along the longitudinal and the circumferential directions of the tunnel lining. The tunnel spandrel and tunnel vault are the maximum deformation parts, respectively, at the standard section and the enlarged section of the tunnel lining. Therefore, it is suggested that the longitudinal anti-tensile design of the tunnel lining at the tunnel portal in such sensitive environments should be strengthened. And the anti-seismic design standard and durability requirement of the standard section of the tunnel lining adjacent to the enlarged section should be improved, so as to meet the requirements for stress deformation and overall stability when subjected to severe earthquakes.","PeriodicalId":50738,"journal":{"name":"Applied Rheology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41764642","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The key point of the gains, losses, and efficiency analyses in the lines are presented with engineering solutions and thermodynamic proofs. The seasonal mathematical models covering the whole of the feasibility of the trigeneration system were carried out and the energy and equilibrium equations of the entire system were established. In addition, energy and exergy analysis, 2nd law efficiency, coefficient of performance (COP), and thermal efficiency were calculated for all the systems. The seasonal numerical analyses of the system have been prepared so that it can work effectively in two different working disciplines separately for summer and winter seasons. Thanks to these numerical analyses that are mentioned, the seasonal exergic destructions of the system are found, seasonal working methods are shown, and working conditions and operating load values suitable for the current season are determined. In addition, in the light of the technical studies mentioned above, both the hourly energy capacities and hourly consumption values that the university will produce after trigeneration have been compared by performing separate mathematical models for summer and winter modes. Thus, it has been aimed to reduce the energy production costs by selling the excess energy to the mains. It is for this reason that it is aimed to reduce the energy production costs of the country, to reduce foreign dependency to meet energy demand, to present both a ready to apply feasibility report to investors and a ready to use design of a medium-sized power plant that will set an example of trigeneration studies in academic terms. In today’s practical applications, it is known that the system efficiency of trigeneration systems can be between 70 and 80%. In the light of the studies, 66% exergic efficiency in winter, thermal efficiency of 0.87411 with 2.05 MW thermal capacity, 63% exergic efficiency in summer, COP of 0.82 with 1.5 MW cooling capacity, and 2.02 MWe instantaneous electrical power was found in summer and winter. It was decided that the system could be a facility that is technically open to development and worth establishing in the light of the exergic and energetic analyses results obtained in this study and the exergic system efficiency comparisons made in the literature. In this study, attention was drawn to the importance of exergy and energy analyses in deciding the installation of a trigeneration system, and it was shown that exergic and energetic analyses played a key role in the verification of decision mechanisms.

This process culminates in the generation of the serine protease thrombin and polymerization of fibrin to prevent vascular leak at sites of endothelial cell injury or loss of cellular junctions. Thrombin generation can be initiated by the extrinsic pathway of coagulation through exposure of blood to tissue factor at sites of vascular damage, or alternatively by the coagulation factor (F) XII activated by foreign surfaces with negative charges, such as glass, through the contact activation pathway. Here, we used transient particle tracking microrheology to investigate the mechanical properties of fibrin in response to thrombin generation downstream of both coagulation pathways. We found that the structural heterogeneity of fibrin formation was dependent on the reaction kinetics of thrombin generation. Pharmacological inhibition of FXII activity prolonged the time to form fibrin and increased the degree of heterogeneity of fibrin, resulting in fibrin clots with reduced mechanical properties. Taken together, this study demonstrates a dependency of the physical biology of fibrin formation on activation of the contact pathway of coagulation.","PeriodicalId":50738,"journal":{"name":"Applied Rheology","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41720626","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
