Polyphenylalkane derivatives Q 0720Studies on the Lanthanum-Induced Pinacol Coupling of Aromatic Aldehydes and Ketones in Aqueous Media. -Ultrasound irradiation can efficiently prompt pinacol coupling of aldehydes in acidic aqueous media in the presence of La. In contrast, aromatic ketones show much lower reactivity due to the steric hindrance around the carbonyl group. -(BIAN*, Y.-J.; YU, X.-G.; PENG, H.
With the author and others scientific investigation on China Wenchuan Ms8.0 earthquake, China Yushu Ms7.1 earthquake and "China's active fault surveying and earthquake hazard evaluation project" relevant data results and the world requirements about project setback of active faults, etc., this paper concluded that: (1) width of Surface-Fault-Rupture is about 40m by statistics, or from the main surface rupture trace about 20m; (2) width of Surface-Fault-Rupture S and the fault vertical offset V, statistical diagrams and formulas S=8.72+9.01V; (3) Setback of the main surface trace D and buildings from damage index I, statistical diagrams and formulas I=0.7969-0.00231D; (4) based on the first three results and by the actual statistics of accuracy, we get three active fault location accuracy level of the standard i, ii, iii, respectively, the error is ± 5m, ± 25m, ± 60m, also, can give this level of standards of Surface-Fault-Rupture width to the actual engineering applications.
The ridge topography can substantially influence seismic ground motion and, in general, causes the amplification of seismic ground motion amplitude at ridges. Fortunately, sets of three-component accelerogram, obtained by the observation arrays for topographic effect at Zigong Xishan, Jiangyou Doutuan and Qingchuan Sanguo from the great Wenchuan earthquake and its aftershocks, provided basic data for analyzing the effect of ridge topography on seismic ground motion. On the base of these acceleration records, peak ground acceleration and response spectrum ratios are calculated, and examined and compared in order to grasp the effect of ridge topography on ground motion. The findings showed that ridge topography has the remarkable effect on seismic ground motion, in which the amplification characteristics varies depending on the shape of ridge topography, and the amplification effect of the horizontal directions are not similar to the vertical direction, and in some periods are even less than 1.0.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
