The landing zone – Ground for model transfer in chemistry

This essay proposes a new notion - the landing zone - in order to identify conceptual features that allow modelers to transfer mathematical tools across disciplinary borders. This discussion refers to the transferable models as ‘templates’. Templates are functions, equations, or computational methods that are capable of being generalized from a particular subject matter. There are formal and conceptual prerequisites for the transfer of a template to a new domain. A landing zone is an ontology that contributes to the satisfaction of these conditions for successful transfer. This paper presents a case study on a model in chemistry - the Quantum Theory of Atoms in Molecules (QTAIM) - that makes use of transferred templates from physics - the virial theorem and the wave function. The landing zone in this case is a new ontological notion, that of the topological atom, which prepares ground for the use of the virial theorem and the wave function in chemistry. The virial theorem requires that there exists in-principle stability to the system that it represents, and the wave function requires transformation in its representation that is justified. The ontology of QTAIM - the landing zone for these templates - grounds the scientific use of these templates in the context of chemistry.     

Ants feeding on anal exudate from tortricid larvae: a new type of trophobiosis

A new type of trophobiosis between tortricid larvae of a hitherto unknown genus and species, and various ant species of the subfamilies Formicinae, Dolichoderinae and Myrmicinae, was found in Malaysia. The larvae live in silken shelters fixed to the leaves of bamboo. In response to mechanical stimuli from the ants, they discharge from the anus a liquid containing sugar and amino acids and/or protein. The tortricid is described as Semutophila saccharopa gen. nov., sp. nov.; a second species, S. susurra sp. nov., is described from New Guinea.

采用条元法分析了异步轧制条件下金属在变形区内的变形情况,建立了适用于异步轧制的轧制压力公式及中性点坐标公式,并在计算摩擦力时考虑了粘着区的存在。通过仿真分析,得到了异步轧制条件下变形区内摩擦力的分布规律及应力、应变的分布规律,最后分析了不同速比对等效应力的影响以及不同入口厚度对轧制压力的影响。     

Three noteworthy mirine plant bugs inhabiting subalpine zones of the Nepalese Himalayas (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Miridae: Mirinae)

Three unique mirine plant bugs inhabiting typical subalpine vegetation in the Nepalese Himalayas are documented, with their confirmed plant associations. A new genus and new species, Khumbumiris schwartzi, is diagnosed and described, based on a male specimen collected from Abies spectabilis; two additional new species, Lygocoris laligurans (associated with Rhododendron shrubs) and Phytocoris sagarmathanus (Abies spectabilis), are also described. Images of the habitats and live individuals are also provided. The tribal placement of Khumbumiris is discussed in detail.

Benthic foraminiferal δ~(13)C minimum events in the southeastern Okhotsk Sea over the last 180 ka

A total of six d13C minimum events,i.e.,VI,V,IV,III,II,and I,were observed via a stable carbon and oxygen isotope analysis of infaunal benthic foraminifera Uvigerina spp.in gravity core OS03-1 in the southeastern Okhotsk Sea over the last 180 ka.These events occurred at112–109,102–90,85–76,57–54,44–40,and 17–10 ka BP.The largest negative excursions reached 2.5%in event V and were greater than 1%in the other events.We proposed that all d13C minimum events were caused by the increase in sea surface water productivity,the weakened formation of Okhotsk Sea intermediate water,and the enhancement of the oxygen minimum zone.The negative excursions were unaffected by methane hydrate destabilization and subsequent methane release based on the results obtained by using archaeal lipid markers.

焊接锚垫板锚固区拉压杆模型及配筋设计

针对焊接锚垫板齿板锚固区配筋,提出了一种锚固区新型拉压杆模型。首先对齿板锚固区 6 种典型效应、主应力迹线以及力流平衡关系进行分析并建立新型拉压杆模型,其次通过美国国家公路与运输官员协会(American Association of StateHighway and Transportation Officials,AASHTO) Load-and-resistance Factor Design Bridge Design Specifications、Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete and Commentary(ACI 318-19)、《公路钢筋混凝土及预应力混凝土桥涵设计规范》 ( JTG 3362—2018)和欧洲设计建议 Practical Design of Structural Concrete 进行拉压杆模型参数定量化设计,根据拉压杆几何关系推导出焊接锚垫板齿板锚固区劈裂力计算式,利用有限元分析,拟合出焊接锚垫板下齿板锚固区劈裂力合力重心计算式。 最后通过算例分析,按本文建议的拉压杆方法进行焊接锚垫板齿板锚固区结构配筋设计,能较好地控制锚下典型效应问题,相比《公路钢筋混凝土及预应力混凝土桥涵设计规范》(JTG 3362—2018)给出的设计方法,拉压杆模型法能较好地反映结构传力机制且具备可行性和可应用性,可为焊接锚垫板齿板锚固区配筋设计提供参考。     

安太堡露天矿排土场基底黄土过载现象数值模拟

为了研究黄土基底排土场破坏机理,对安太堡露天矿排土场基底黄土进行过载现象数值模拟研究。结果表明在排弃物不断回填的过程中,基底黄土逐渐出现塑性区域,最终由于基底软塑带图所承受载荷超过其极限值而使得自身强度急剧降低,从而产生破坏。并且通过二次回填的方法,可以防止塑性变形值增大过快而使得软塑带土过早的产生过载现象,这样更适合于排土场的规划。     

断层带对深部地压影响的数值模拟

由于浅部断层带中的岩体比较软弱和破碎,所以成为应力降低带,而深部工程中断层带对地压分布的影响是一个有待深入研究的问题.为了了解和掌握深部地压分布规律,本文中通过结合某工程现场条件,在实际调研和岩石力学实验的基础上,建立了力学数值模型,分析了深部工程中断层带对深部地压分布的影响.结果表明,深部工程中断层的存在影响了地应力分布的连续性,在同一水平高程上,断层上盘的主应力大于断层下盘的主应力;高地应力出现在断层上盘和矿层上盘的交叉区域.
