| 1 | Analysis of hydro-mechanical processes in a ventilated tunnel in an argillaceous rock on the basis of different modelling approaches显示文摘In this paper, a modelling benchmark exercise from the DECOVALEX-2011 project is presented. The bench-mark is based on the performance and results of a laboratory drying test and of the ventilation experiment (VE) carried out in the Mont Terri Underground Rock Laboratory (URL). Both tests involve Opalinus clay. The work aims at the identification, understanding and quantification of mechanisms taking place during the ventilation of a gallery in argillaceous host rocks on one hand and at investigating the capacity of different codes and individuals to reproduce these processes on the other hand. The 4-year in situ VE took place in a 1.3 m diameter unlined tunnel and included two resaturation-desaturation cycles. The test area was equipped with over one hundred sensors (including the global water mass balance of the system, relative humidity (RH), water content, liquid pressure, relative displacement and concentration of some chemical species) to monitor the rock behaviour during ventilation. The laboratory drying experiment, carried out before the VE, was designed to mimic the in situ conditions. The work was organized in a progressive manner in terms of complexity of the computations to be performed, geared towards the full hydro-mechano-chemical (HMC) understanding of the VE, the final objective. The main results from the modelling work reported herein are that the response of the host rock to ventilation in argillaceous rocks is mainly governed by hydraulic processes (advective Darcy flow and non-advective vapour diffusion) and that the hydro-mechanical (TM) back coupling is weak. A ventilation experiment may thus be regarded as a large scale-long time pump test and it is used to determine the hydraulic conductivity of the rock mass. | B.Garitte A.Bond A.Millard C.Zhang C.Mcdermott S.Nakama A.Gens | 2013 | Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering2013，5，1： | 3 |
| 3 | An Earth-mass planet in a time of COVID-19:KMT-2020-BLG-0414Lb显示文摘We report the discovery of KMT-2020-BLG-0414 Lb,with a planet-to-host mass ratio q2=0.9-1.2×10-5=3-4 q⊕at 1σ,which is the lowest mass-ratio microlensing planet to date.Together with two other recent discoveries(4?q/q⊕?6),it fills out the previous empty sector at the bottom of the triangular(log s,log q)diagram,where s is the planet-host separation in units of the angular Einstein radiusθE.Hence,these discoveries call into question the existence,or at least the strength,of the break in the mass-ratio function that was previously suggested to account for the paucity of very low-q planets.Due to the extreme magnification of the event,Amax~1450 for the underlying single-lens event,its light curve revealed a second companion with q3~0.05 and|log s3|~1,i.e.,a factor~10 closer to or farther from the host in projection.The measurements of the microlens parallaxπE and the angular Einstein radiusθE allow estimates of the host,planet and second companion masses,(M1,M2,M3)~(0.3 M⊙,1.0 M⊕,17 MJ),the planet and second companion projected separations,(a⊥,2,a⊥,3)~(1.5,0.15 or 15)au,and system distance DL~1 kpc.The lens could account for most or all of the blended light(I~19.3)and so can be studied immediately with high-resolution photometric and spectroscopic observations that can further clarify the nature of the system.The planet was found as part of a new program of high-cadence follow-up observations of high-magnification events.The detection of this planet,despite the considerable difficulties imposed by COVID-19(two KMT sites and OGLE were shut down),illustrates the potential utility of this program. | Weicheng Zang Cheongho Han Iona Kondo Jennifer C.Yee Chung-Uk Lee Andrew Gould Shude Mao Leandro de Almeida Yossi Shvartzvald Xiangyu Zhang Michael D.Albrow Sun-Ju Chung Kyu-Ha Hwang Youn Kil Jung Yoon-Hyun Ryu In-Gu Shin Sang-Mok Cha Dong-Jin Kim Hyoun-Woo Kim Seung-Lee Kim Dong-Joo Lee Yongseok Lee Byeong-Gon Park Richard W.Pogge John Drummond Thiam-Guan Tan JoséDias do Nascimento Júnior Dan Maoz Matthew T.Penny Wei Zhu Ian A.Bond Fumio Abe Richard Barry David P.Bennett Aparna Bhattacharya Martin Donachie Hirosane Fujii Akihiko Fukui Yuki Hirao Yoshitaka Itow Rintaro Kirikawa Naoki Koshimoto Man Cheung Alex Li Yutaka Matsubara Yasushi Muraki Shota Miyazaki Greg Olmschenk Clément Ranc Nicholas J.Rattenbury Yuki Satoh Hikaru Shoji Stela Ishitani Silva Takahiro Sumi Daisuke Suzuki Yuzuru Tanaka Paul J.Tristram Tsubasa Yamawaki Atsunori Yonehara Andreea Petric Todd Burdullis Pascal Fouqué | 2021 | Research in Astronomy and Astrophysics2021，21，9： | 0 |
