La prison de Guingamp, de l’ombre à la lumière by Emmanuel Laot

“…The prison was built by the Côtes-du-Nord department and opened in 1841 thanks to Charles Lucas, general inspector of prisons, Louis Lorin, departmental architect and Alexis de Tocqueville, the great French historian, thinker and publicist. We owe them this humanist architectural design of the idea that a prison is not simply a place of confinement. …”

Simulation on Water Diversion Regulation Effect in the Central Ditch of Hengqin New District,Zhuhai by LONG Xiaofei, WU Yaju, FAN Qunfang, ZHU Song, WANG Hua, ZHU Jinhe

“…The tidal river network area of the Pearl River Delta uses the ebb-and-flow differences between tidal level of the outer river and water level of the inland river to divert clear water for regulation.This is an effective way to improve the water environment of the tidal river network.The central ditch of Hengqin New District is in the tidal river network area of the Pearl River Delta.To improve the water environment of the central ditch in Hengqin New District,this study builds a one-dimensional hydrodynamic mathematical model of water quality and investigates the hydrodynamic regulation scheme for improving the regional water environment.Then,the water exchange effects of the original regulation scheme and the optimized regulation scheme are calculated and analyzed.The simulation results show that the optimized regulation scheme increases the regional flow rate by 0.20 m/s,shortens the half-exchange period by 101.5 h,and increases the water exchange rate by a factor of 1.1,which demonstrates a great improvement effect on the regional water environment.The results can be used as a reference for the implementation of the water diversion regulation scheme in the tidal river network area.…”

Large Geomagnetically Induced Currents at Equator Caused by an Interplanetary Magnetic Cloud by B. Nilam, S. Tulasi Ram

“…Abstract Here, we report a rare observation of an extremely large and rapid change of geomagnetic field (dB/dt), a proxy for the geomagnetically induced currents (GICs), at the equator caused by a sudden drop in solar wind density at the front boundary of a magnetic cloud (MC) during the great 31 March 2001 storm. The horizontal component at the Indian equatorial station, Tirunelveli, recorded a sharp decline of ∼350 nT in just 5 min with a peak dB/dt exhibiting a concerning value of 136 nT/min, a possible GIC risk to the electric power systems. …”

Simulation and Analysis of Multi-sluice Dam Channel Flow Evolution Based on MIKE11 by ZHANG Shixin, ZHANG Jing

“…Due to the influence of sluices,the flow propagation law of multi-sluice dam is complicated,which brings great difficulties to the forecast of river flow and water dispatching.In this paper,the river channel of Qipanshan Reservoir and Tuanjie Sluice of Puhe River is taken as the research object,and the river is divided into seven sections.On the basis of the MIKE11HD construction,the influence of multi-sluice dams on river flow evolution is analyzed,and the change of peak discharge travel time and flow attenuation in different sections is studied by the model.The results show that there is a significant power function relationship between the flood peak discharge and the travel time.As the flood peak discharge is larger,the travel time will be shorter.The attenuation rate per kilometer is related to the characteristics of the channel and the vegetation on both sides of the channel.Under the influence of artificial channelization,the discharge attenuation rate per kilometer is minimum in the sluice 7-sluice 6 section,and maximum in the section of the rubber dam on the sluice to Laoshiniu rubber dam.This study can provide a basis for the joint operation of multi-sluice dam in the ecological corridor of Puhe River,and also provide a reference for the flow simulation and flood forecast of other multi- sluice dam channels.…”
