RESEARCH AND APPLICATION OF U-BIT CONSTRUCTION METHOD IN SUBWAY STATION ENGINEERING LOCATED IN SATURATED SOFT SOIL AREA

In order to solve the problems existing in the construction of underground structures located in the downtown of saturated soft soil area, such as insufficient construction site, complex adjacent structures and great impact on the surrounding environment, the construction method of underground bundled integrate tunnel(U-BIT) is proposed. In this method, after steel pipes jacking completed, concrete is filled into the pipes, and prestress is tensioned to make each independent pipe combined to form a whole bearing structure, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing the size of structural components, improving the structural stiffness and bearing capacity. Based on the structural mechanical properties test and the project of Wuding Road Station of Shanghai Metro Line 14, the failure mechanism of bundled integrate structure, the tension technology of prestressed tendons in narrow space and the variation rules of ground surface subsidence are systematically studied. The research shows that structural seam sections will be destroyed before pipe sections, so ensuring the mechanical performance of seam sections is very important to make sure the structural safety. Since each independent pipe is combined to form an overall stable structure under the prestress effect, the subsequent soil excavation has little influence on the tension of prestressed tendons and ground surface deformation. Therefore, the above construction method can control the ground surface subsidence effectively and reduce the influence of underground engineering construction on the surrounding environment.  &nbsp

What landscape elements are needed for hospital healing spaces? Evidence from an empirical study of 10 compact hospitals

BackgroundModern medical research shows that a rationally planned landscape environment helps patients recover. With the growing number of hospital patients and the tightening of per capita medical landscape land, the use of limited landscape resources to serve patients has become challenging.MethodsThis study focused on the landscape environment of 10 hospitals in Guangdong Province, China. Based on the KANO theoretical model, a survey questionnaire was designed and administered to 410 participants. The data were analyzed based on demand attributes, importance, sensitivity, and group differences.ResultsThe maintenance requirements were the most important item in the sensitivity ranking. Furthermore, the analysis revealed that the users need a safe, quiet, and private environment, owing to their higher requirements, including visual healing, rehabilitation activities, shading and heat preservation, and medical escort. Moreover, adolescents and older adult patients have common and contradictory environmental needs. For example, the landscape environment should provide both an active space and a quiet rehabilitation environment.ConclusionThis study evaluates how landscape resources can be better utilized from the perspective of the user and expands the theory of healing landscapes, which has practical implications for hospital renovation and landscape environment strategies

Research and application of maximum surface subsidence model under the condition of repeated mining in weakly cemented strata

The characteristics of surface subsidence under the condition of repeated mining in weakly cemented strata are of great significance to the safe and efficient mining and ecological restoration of coal resources in weakly cemented mining areas in western China. Theoretical analysis, similar simulation, numerical simulation and field monitoring are used to study the migration law of overlying strata and surface subsidence model under repeated mining conditions in weakly cemented strata, and the model is applied in engineering. The bulking characteristics of weakly cemented rock and the influence mechanism of repeated mining overburden strata movement on surface subsidence are discussed through theoretical analysis. The ‘maximum surface subsidence model under the condition of repeated mining in weakly cemented strata’ is established. There is a linear relationship between the bulking coefficient of weakly cemented rock, the mining thickness of lower coal and the maximum surface subsidence of weakly cemented strata. Through similar simulation and numerical simulation, the characteristics of repeated mining overburden and surface subsidence in weakly cemented strata are analyzed. The research results show that the development law of the separation height of the initial mining and repeated mining of the weakly cemented strata is basically the same, and both show a step-like rise. The surface subsidence curve of repeated mining is asymmetrically distributed, and the maximum subsidence value is biased towards the side of open cut. The maximum development height of overlying strata, the maximum surface subsidence value and the surface subsidence coefficient after initial mining and repeated mining are given. The established maximum surface subsidence model is used to predict the maximum surface subsidence value on site. The predicted value of the maximum surface subsidence model is similar to the measured value on site during the mining process of the working face, which verifies the rationality of the ' maximum surface subsidence model under the condition of repeated mining of weakly cemented strata '. At the same time, the predicted value of the maximum surface subsidence after the mining of the working face can provide a reference for the actual work on site

Effect of a Zn impurity on T_c and its implication to pairing symmetry in LaFeAsO1−x_{1-x}Fx_x

The effect of non-magnetic Zn impurity on superconductivity in LaFe$_{1-y}$Zn$_y$AsO$_{1-x}$F$_x$ system is studied systematically. In the presence of Zn impurity, the superconducting transition temperature increases in the under-doped regime, remains unchanged in the optimally doped regime, and is severely suppressed in the over-doped regime. Our results suggest a switch of the symmetry of the superconducting order parameters from a $s$-wave to $s_{\pm}$ or $d$-wave states as the charge carrier doping increases in FeAs-based superconductors.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures.

An Expanded Three Band Model to Monitor Inland Optically Complex Water Using Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI)

Due to strict spectral band requirements, the three-band (TB) chlorophyll-a concentration (Cchla) estimation algorithm cannot be applied to GOCI image, which has great potential in frequently monitoring inland complex waters. In this study, the TB algorithm was expanded and applied to GOCI data. The GOCI TB algorithm was subsequently calibrated using an in-situ dataset which contains 281 samples collected from 17 inland lakes in China between 2013 and 2020. MERIS TB and GOCI band ratio (BR) models were selected as comparisons to assess the proposed model. The results showed that the proposed GOCI TB model has similar accuracy with MERIS TB model and overperformed GOCI BR model. The root mean square error (RMSE) of the GOCI TB, MERIS TB, and GOCI BR algorithms are 14.212 μg/L, 12.096 μg/L, and 20.504 μg/L, respectively. The mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) (when Cchla is larger than 10 μg/L) of the three models were 0.377, 0.250, and 0.453, respectively. Similar conclusion could be drawn from a match-up dataset containing 40 samples. Finally, a simulation experiment was carried out to analyze the robustness of the models under various total suspended matter concentration (CTSM) conditions. Both the in-situ validation and simulation experiment indicated that the GOCI TB factor could effectively eliminate the optical influence of CTSM. Furthermore, the broader spectral range requirement of GOCI TB model made it proper for many other multispectral sensors such as Sentinel two Multispectral Instrument (S2 MSI), Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) (onboard the Terra/Aqua satellite), and Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) (onboard the National Polar-orbiting Partnership satellite). Compared with the GOCI BR algorithm, the GOCI TB algorithm has stronger stability, better accuracy, and greater potential in practice

Multidisciplinary Cooperation in a Simultaneous Combined Liver and Kidney Transplantation Patient of Primary Hyperoxaluria

Primary hyperoxaluria type 1 is an autosomal recessive hereditary glyoxylate metabolism disorder characterized by excessive production of oxalate, caused by the deficiency of liver specific peroxisomal enzyme: alanineglyoxylate aminotransferase. For patients with end-stage renal disease, combined liver and kidney transplantation was needed. This report describes one patient, with a diagnosis of end-stage renal disease and primary hyperoxaluria 1 confirmed by PCR and direct sequencing with genomic DNA, received the simultaneous combined liver and kidney transplantation after seven months’ waiting. However, there were several complications observed post surgery, such as protracted bleeding, common bile duct anastomotic stenosis, biliary calculi and recurrence of urolithiasis. All these were well solved by relevant department, and finally a satisfactory outcome was achieved. Multidisciplinary cooperation plays an important role on the PH1 patient management, especially when multiple complications are encountered. Keywords: primary hyperoxaluria type 1; end-stage renal disease; liver transplantation; kidney transplantation

Attribution analysis of multi-temporal scale changes of streamflow in the source area of Lancang River with seasonal scale Budyko model

Under the influence of climate change and human activities, the intra-annual distribution characteristics of streamflow have changed, directly affecting the exploitation of water resources and the health of ecosystems. The trend-free pre-whitening Mann-Kendall (TFPW-MK) test method, concentration degree and concentration period, and Bernaola-Galvan (BG) segmentation algorithm were applied to analyze variation trend, intra-annual distribution characteristics, and abrupt year of streamflow. Then, the monthly water storage and monthly actual evaporation of the source area of the Lancang River (SALR) were calculated by the monthly ABCD model. Finally, the contributions of different factors to runoff variability at multiple time scales were quantified using the seasonal-scale Budyko hypothesis approach. The results showed that: (1) The runoff revealed a significant upward trend on the annual scale. Runoff exhibited a significant upward trend in January, October and November, and runoff in other months and seasons exhibited an insignificant upward trend. (2) The intra-annual distribution characteristics of runoff in the SALR showed an obvious “Single-peak type“ distribution, reaching a maximum in July and August. (3) The year of sudden change in streamflow was 2008. (4) The contribution of climate change and human activities to the annual runoff change was 83.3% and 16.7%, respectively. The degree of influence of climate change on runoff change was ranked as spring (96.8%), autumn (85.3%), winter (82.2%) and summer (58.2%). The order of impact of human activity on runoff change was summer (41.8%), winter (17.8%), autumn (14.7%), spring (3.2%)
