Analysis of Deformation Characteristics of Dikes on Deep Soft Soil Foundations by WU Juan, ZHANG Ming, LI Yansong, HOU Weijian

“…The deformation of dikes directly affects the safety of dikes,especially for dikes on deep soft soil foundations,whose deformation is often large,and thus it is often used as the main evaluation index of dike safety.By the reconstruction project of a dike on soft soil foundations,the finite element numerical analysis model for the typical section of the dike is built,and the deformation of the dike during the completion period and under the characteristic water levels is calculated,with emphasis on analyzing the influence of the water level changes and pressure platform on the deformation characteristics of the dike.The results indicate that the dike settlement is severe,and the severe settlement area is mainly concentrated near the center of the surface layer of the dike foundation,and the soft foundation has a significant impact on the dike settlement.The horizontal deformation is relatively small,mainly concentrated in soft foundations,and the horizontal deformation of the dike body is slight.The pressure platform on the waterside slope and the water level changes near a river have a great influence on the horizontal deformation of the dike.On the whole,the dike design scheme is reasonable,and it is suggested to reserve a sufficient settlement amount at the top of the dike.…”

Spatial distribution characteristics, ecological risk assessment, and source analysis of heavy metals in surface sediment of a reservoir in northwest China by Yufeng Xie, Ming Kong, Fei He, Rongrong Ying, Tao Long

“…The pollution index analysis shows that the heavy metals in the surface sediment of the reservoir are at an uncontaminated level, but arsenic (As) is within the pollution alert range; The potential ecological hazard index method shows that mercury (Hg) and cadmium (Cd) are the main ecological hazard contributing factors; Correlation analysis and principal component analysis suggest that As and Pb are mainly affected by human activities, while heavy metals chromium (Cr) and copper (Cu) mainly come from natural sources, while other heavy metals are simultaneously affected by both human activities and natural sources. …”
