The Sichuan seismic data were chosen between 1990 and 2010， most of which distributed on the Longmenshan fault. After node converging on the earthquake network， several seismic sequences from nodes were obtained， which mainly belonged to foreshock-mainshock-aftershock type. Through studying the energy changing of seismic sequences， the results indicated that a single earthquake’s energy changing does not show the law， but the sum energy of sequences with a certain size time window has periodicity change， and the energy center distributes on the Longmenshan central fault zone. All of these researches show that there is an important significance to recognize the regularity of earthquake using analysis method of seismic sequence based on node converging.

To solve this problem， a novel Markov location prediction approach was proposed based on user mobile behavior similarity and user clustering. First， the map was partitioned into various regions based on Voronoi diagram and original GPS trajectories. And then locations were predicted over region trajectories. Second， a new approach was proposed to measure the similarity of users’ mobile behaviors by considering users’ transferring features and regional features. Third，based on the mobile behavior similarity， users were divided into various groups and the first-order Markov model was applied on the groups to predict users’ locations. Therefore， the accuracy of location prediction was improved. The experiments over real GPS trajectory dataset indicate that the proposed method is effective for location prediction.

The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method was applied to calculate the internal fluid flows at different openings and working conditions. Meanwhile， a prototype made by plexiglass was tested by PTV. Then， the internal flows were both obtained using CFD and PTV. Under the same opening， the flow velocity increased with the speed ratio， and the angle between the flow direction and the inlet angle direction of the adjustable guide vane increased as well. In the stall condition， the vortex phenomenon was observed near the vane’s working surface. However， at the no-load condition， the vortex phenomenon emerged in the vane’s non-working surface. The results showed that the numerical simulation method can perform a comparatively accurate prediction of the internal flow characteristics of the hydrodynamic torque converter with adjustable guide vanes in comparison with the test， which can provide a method and basis for the research on its internal flow state， and the performance prediction and design optimization of the hydrodynamic torque converter with adjustable guide vanes.

Ore Grade Estimation Based on Multi-gene Genetic Programming HAN Chang-ik， WANG En-de， XIA Jian-ming， LI Gwang-su 2016, 37 (3):  408-412.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2016.03.022 Abstract ( 539 )   HTML   PDF (356KB) ( 731 )   Ore grade estimation is relatively difficult due to the complexity of ore deposit formation process and numerous control factors. Evaluation of ore deposit with low estimation error is crucial in mineral resources development and usage. So far， Kriging， now known as a best estimation method of grade， is based on intrinsic assumption and stationarity about the underlying grade spatial distribution. However， most of ore grade data are spatially sparse， irregularly spaced and have complex distribution， which could result in the Kriging estimation method violating intrinsic assumption and stationarity. This article presented a new method for ore grade estimation based on multi-gene genetic programming and also compared it with ordinary Kriging. The results show that the proposed method makes no assumptions about the spatial distribution of grade data， the condition of implementing ore body grade prediction is simplified， and it can achieve better prediction effect. So， the proposed method can be used to estimate ore grade for complex ore deposit. References | Related Articles | Metrics

The results show that the extracellular polymers (EPS)， soluble microbial products (SMP)， ζ potential and sludge particle size are the important influence factors of membrane fouling. Membrane fouling of SECMBR is much less than that of SMBR. In the SECMBR， the in situ dissolved iron ion combines with EPS which can enhance flocculation and alleviate pollution of cake layer. Electrocoagulation can reduce SMP and EPS secreted by unit volume activated sludge in SECMBR， and alleviate membrane pollution. SECMBR reduces the proportion of protein which is main pollution in EPS and SMP， and reduces membrane pollution. ζ potential has a negative correlation with Rc. Correlation degree is -0.7988 and -0.5574 in SMBR and SECMBR. Under the effect of electric field and iron ion， the ζ potential absolute value is reduced， and membrane pollution is alleviated.

Thermogravimetric-Mass Spectrometry Analysis and Pyrolysis Kinetic of Rice Husk and Rice Straw YAO Xi-wen， XU Kai-li， JIA Yan-qiang， ZHANG Xiu-min 2016, 37 (3):  426-430.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2016.03.026 Abstract ( 692 )   HTML   PDF (589KB) ( 719 )   In the nitrogen atmosphere， thermogravimetry-mass spectrometry(TG/MS) was used in combination to compare the pyrolysis behavior of rice husk and rice straw at the heating rates of 5℃/min and 20℃/min， and the release rule of small molecule gas (CO，CO2，CH4，H2) product with the change of temperature and heating rates was obtained. The results show that the pyrolysis process of rice husk and rice straw can be divided into dewatering and drying warm-up solution stage， volatile component precipitation fast pyrolysis stage and residue pyrolysis carbonization stage. The total weight loss rate of rice straw pyrolysis is about 75%， while rice husk is about 55%， and the index value of rice straw pyrolysis characteristics is higher than that of rice husk. The release intensity of ion current of main biomass gas composition (CO， CH4 and H2) in the rice straw pyrolysis process is obviously higher than that of rice husk. The pyrolysis kinetic parameters were calculated by using Coats-Redfern method. The apparent activation energy and volatile component initial precipitation temperature of rice straw are lower than those of rice husk， which accord with the results of experiment， and indicate that the pyrolysis performance of rice straw is better than that of rice husk under uniform conditions.

Numerical simulation on two experimental cases was performed and the calculation results agreed well with two experiment results， verifying the effectiveness of the single-fluid model. Then， numerical simulations on suspended sediment up and down motion process in the two experiments were performed. The results showed that sediment run 24s and 35s from the beginning up to a steady state and from the beginning down to a steady state respectively. It is indicated that the single-fluid model is effective to simulate motion process of suspended sediment. It can provide a scientific reference and basis for the study of water and sediment in river coastal engineering. References | Related Articles | Metrics

Analysis of Subgrade Stability in Karst Area Based on Variable Weight Theory-Uncertainty Measurement Method KANG Qian， WANG Xin-min， PU Hao， WANG Shi 2016, 37 (3):  435-439.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2016.03.028 Abstract ( 502 )   HTML   PDF (449KB) ( 709 )   In order to study the stability of subgrade in karst area， the analysis model of uncertainty measurement was established based on sixteen indexes having the greatest impact on the karst subgrade stability. Also， the uncertain measurement functions of all indicators were established. Each index weight was calculated by using variable weight to avoid the “state out of balance” phenomenon caused by constant weights evaluation. Finally， the risk grade prediction of subgrade stability was made according to grade determination based on confidence identification criteria. This model was applied to the highway reconstruction project in Shimen City Hunan Province. The results showed that the risk grade of 1# subgrade and 2# subgrade were Ⅳ and Ⅲ respectively. Namely， the risk grade of 2# subgrade is higher. The results agree well with the actual engineering. The method can provide a new way for subgrade stability analysis and a reference to subgrade design and construction. References | Related Articles | Metrics

Goafs′ Risk Discrimination Based on Improved TOPSIS Coupled with GA-BP XIE Cheng-yu， LUO Zhou-quan， JIA Nan， WANG Wei 2016, 37 (3):  440-445.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2016.03.029 Abstract ( 572 )   HTML   PDF (450KB) ( 688 )   According to the complex process and low accuracy of goaf area risk discrimination， the improved TOPSIS coupled with neural network was proposed. Firstly， the TOPSIS method was improved and used on goaf area in order to enhance the objection and accuracy of sample goafs’ risk discrimination. Absolute ideal point and improved fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (IFAHP) objective were respectively used to avoid the reverse phenomenon caused by the change of ideal point and weights. And risk grade division was realized through different instability degree interval threshold value of discrimination index. The improved TOPSIS method was used to risk discrimination of 100 groups goaf area samples in a certain mine and results were validated. Then， in order to simplify the discrimination process， the improved TOPSIS and GA-BP neural network were combined effectively. Calculating neural network model was trained by the 100 groups sample data which were discriminated by improved TOPSIS， the 5 groups were discriminated by the model， and the discrimination results agree with the facts. The study results not only enhance the objection of goaf area risk discrimination， but also provide a new thought for simplifying the discrimination process and expand the engineering application in field.

Relationship Between AC Electrical Resistivity and the Degree of Soil Chemical Weathering LIU Jing-shuo， CHEN Yu-long， NIE Wen， NING Guo-guo5 2016, 37 (3):  446-451.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2016.03.030 Abstract ( 613 )   HTML   PDF (710KB) ( 644 )   By using alternating current(AC) bridge， the effects of the water content and electric current frequency on the electrical resistivity of soils were studied to investigate the relationship between resistivity and soil chemical weathering index (CWI). The test results show that the electrical resistivity of soils decreases with the increase of water content and electric current frequency. When the water content is relatively low， the electrical resistivity decreases very sharply with the increase of water content， but turned slowly at relatively high water content. However， the electrical resistivity has only a smaller reduction with the increase of the electric frequency. Based on the viewpoint of that the weathering degree is positively related to the electric resistivity， the relationship between resistivity and chemical weathering index was established， and the computing method for fitted parameters was given. A comparison between CWI predicted by fitted equation and actual CWI was made to show its reliability. The electrical resistivity can provide reference for the evaluation of the degree of weathering.

The TJ-1 lunar soil simulant particles used in soft landing model tests were scanned and photographed by using a stereo microscope. Then， a digital imaging processing software was used to statistically analyze the geometric characteristics of particles of each grain size group， and aspect ratio， circularity and roundness of particles were obtained to provide the experimental data for further research of the relationship between geometric characteristics of particles and soil physical and mechanical properties. The research results show that the TJ-1 lunar soil simulant particles have irregular structures of corners， cheicers and sawtooth. Consequently， the surface of particles is relatively rough. Big size particles have obvious honeycomb-like pore structure. The shape of particles differs from each other， the main shapes are long striped， quasi-triangle and quasi-quadrangle. Finally， the geometric characteristics of TJ-1 lunar soil simulant particles is compared to the one of real lunar soil particles. References | Related Articles | Metrics
