Rainfall and the water leak frequently causes the unsaturated loess slope landslide and the foundation destruction. The theoretical analysis was accomplished, then a two dimensional water seepage calculation model for loess foundation was established. It realized the forecast for the water content change of loess soil. Combined with an example, the calculating program was compiled by Matlab. The result confirmed the effectiveness and rationality of the method and model.

AbstractThis paper proposes a new framework for categorizing approaches to the history of political thought. Previous categorizations exclude much research; political theory, if included, is often caricatured. And previous categorizations are one-dimensional, presenting different approaches as alternatives. My framework is two-dimensional, distinguishing six kinds of end (two empirical, four theoretical) and six kinds of means. Importantly, these choices are not alternatives: studies may have more than one end and typically use several means. Studies with different ends often use some of the same means. And all studies straddle the supposed empirical/theoretical “divide.” Quentin Skinner himself expertly combines empirical and theoretical analysis—yet the latter is often overlooked, not least because of Skinner's own methodological pronouncements. This highlights a curious disjuncture in methodological writings, between what they say we do, and what we should do. What we should do is much broader than existing categorizations imply.

Compression and collapse of unsaturated compacted loess are studied by using dry density and water content which easily controlled in engineering, the controlling range of dry density and water content are confirmed respectively. Then the deformation of compression and collapse and the frequency of engineering damager occurrence can be decreased. In addition, the mechanical characteristics of loess in different directions may differ because the loess was consolidated only under the condition of its upper weight of soil and load. The conventional mechanical experiments, including one-dimensional compress and collapse test, were conducted with the specimen of loess soil in different angle from the original horizontal plane. The test result shows that the loess is anisotropic

Two-dimensional van der Waals materials have rich and unique functional properties, but many are susceptible to corrosion under ambient conditions. Here we show that linear alkylamines n-CmH2m+1NH2, with m = 4 through 11, are highly effective in protecting the optoelectronic properties of these materials, such as black phosphorus (BP) and transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs: WS2, 1T′-MoTe2, WTe2, WSe2, TaS2, and NbSe2). As a representative example, n-hexylamine (m = 6) can be applied in the form of thin molecular monolayers on BP flakes with less than 2-nm thickness and can prolong BP’s lifetime from a few hours to several weeks and even months in ambient environments. Characterizations combined with our theoretical analysis show that the thin monolayers selectively sift out water molecules, forming a drying layer to achieve the passivation of the protected 2D materials. The monolayer coating is also stable in air, H2 annealing, and organic solvents, but can be removed by certain organic acids.

Forced vibration analysis of two dimensional bridge deck structures involves complex mathematical procedures and therefore analysis is often based on beam idealization of equivalent plates. This simplification yields close agreement only for long span bridges where plate action is relatively insignificant. However, such a concept of beam idealization cannot be successfully utilized in the case of short span bridges where plate action is predominant and where the determination of the distribution of dynamic deflections and amplification factors at critical sections of such plates is of prime concern. The principal objective of the present investigation is the forced vibration analysis of longitudinally stiffened, simply supported orthotropic bridge decks utilizing a new concept of interconnected beam idealization. The theoretical analysis deals with determination of amplification factors and dynamic deflections along critical sections of the plate treated as a series of interconnected beams. The aspect ratios of the plates under investigation as series of interconnected beams are designed to cover a wide range of plate to beam transition. The theoretical analysis is supplemented by an extensive experimental programme.In conclusion, it is seen that this concept of interconnected beam idealization not only takes into account the plate action of the deck structure but also reduces greatly the complexity of mathematical formulation. A good comparison between the theoretical and the experimental results indicates that this concept can be used to advantage for analysis and, within certain limitations, for design purposes.

We study the doping dependence of photoemission spectra for the t-t′-t″-J model by using the exact diagonalization technique and present a consistent theoretical analysis. Both calculations show that upon doping the enhancement of incoherent motion of holes due to the t′ and t″ terms accounts for the formation of the flat region around (π,0) in the quasiparticle dispersion at underdoped and optimally doped region, despite the absence of the flat band at half filling. Our results are in excellent agreement with resent photoemission experiments on Bi 2 Sr 2 Ca 1 Cu 2 O 8+δ [Marshall et al., Phys. Rev. Lett.76, 4841 (1996)] and Sr 2 CuO 2 Cl 2 [Wells et al., Phys. Rev. Lett.74, 964 (1995)].

SummaryA theoretical analysis is presented for a two-dimensional air strut with walls consisting of thin membranes which are joined by many inextensible strings. The strut is deflected through large angles so than an appreciable portion of each membrane is buckled and lies along the solid plates which form the ends of the strut. Numerical solutions are obtained for two cases and, in particular, the resultant force on each end plate is determined.
