  • The stability of surrounding rock will be poor when the tunnel is excavated through nearly horizontal stratum. In this paper, the instability mechanism of local nearly horizontal stratum in super-large section and deep buried tunnel is revealed by the analysis of the macro failure and micro fracture. A structural model is proposed to explain the mechanics of surrounding rock collapse under the action of stress redistribution and shed light on the macroscopic analytical approach of the stability of surrounding rock. Then, some highly effective formulas applied in the tunnel engineering are developed according to the theory of mixed-mode micro fracture. And well-documented field case is made to demonstrate the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed analytical methods of mixed-mode fracture. Meanwhile, in order to make the more accurate judgment about yield failure of rock mass, a series of comprehensive failure criteria are formed. In addition, the relationship between the nonlinear failure criterion and $K_I$ and $K_{II}$ of micro fracture is established to make the surrounding rock failure criterion more comprehensive and accurate. Further, the influence of the parameters related to the tension-shear mixed-mode fracture and compression-shear mixed-mode fracture on the propagation of rock crack is analyzed. Results show that ${\sigma}_3$ changes linearly with the change of ${\sigma}_1$. And the change rate is related to ${\beta}$, angle between the cracks and ${\sigma}_1$. The proposed simple analytical approach is economical and efficient, and suitable for the analysis of local nearly horizontal stratum in super-large section and deep buried tunnel.

  • The physico-chemical factors, the distribution of chlorophyll and the primary production of the lakes Hwajinpo, Yongrangho, Chunchonho, Uiamho, Soyangho and Changjamot have been studied in order to make ecological comparison among these lakes during summer stagnation period of August to September of 1973. On the basis of the characteristics of these lakes, the lake types have been discussed. Thermocline is observed at 3-4m zone in the lake Changjamot and 4-5m zone in the lake Yongrangho. In the case of lake Hwajinpo and impoundments, the distinct thermal stratification is not observed at the summer stagnation period. As to vertical distribution of dissolved oxygen, a positive heterograde curve is obtained in the lakes Hwajinpo and Yongrangho. In the lake Changjamot the typical clinograde curve and the oxygen depletion in hypolimnion are observed. In the case of impoundments, however, the orthograde curve is observed in the lakes Chunchonho and Uiamho. While in the lake Soyangho, any stratification of the disssolved oxygen is not found. In the brackish lakes, such as lakes Hwajinpo and Yongragho, the salinity of hypolimnion is found to be much higher than that of epilimnion. In the lake Hwajinpo, the salinity of hypolimnion is exhibited 32.7$\textperthousand$, which is nearly the same as sea water. The distribution of nitrogenous compounds and phosphates is found to be high in the lake Changjmot. The silicate is also found in high concentration in the lake Chunchonho, and the distribution of nutrients in the brackish lakes is generally low. As to the vertical distribution of chlorophyll level, the lake Changjamot shows a stratum type and the brackish lakes L-type stratification. In the impoundments, lakes Chunchonho and Uiamho appear to be homogeneous type. Seasonal variation of chlorophyll level in the lake Changjamot is examined from January to September 1973. The vertical distribution of chlorophyll during the period of circulation from January to April is homogeneous type and is stratum type thereafter. The maximum chlorophyll level is 277.4mg/$m^2$ on June 23 and the pattern of seasonal variation of chlorophyll level is comparable to the type of eutrophy. The horizontal distribution of chlorophyll level is studied in the brackish lakes, Hwajinpo and Yongrangho. The pattern of distribution is found to be an irregular type. On the basis of measurements of primary production by means of the carbon-14 method and the distribution of chlorophyll level, it is concluded that the interior part of the lake Hwajinpo and Changjamot are eutrophic and the exterior part of the lake Hwajinpo, lake Yongrangho and the impoundments, lake Uiambo and Soyangho are mesotrophic.
