    The space analysis function of ArcGIS is used to display the main pollutants’ spatial distribution of shallow groundwater in Daxing district, get the distribution and variation diagrams. And the water quality monitoring data of shallow groundwater for nearly 20 years is used to get the trend charts, the change of the main pollutants are analyzed. Then the reason why the spatial-temporal changes of water quality of shallow groundwater happen is analyzed. Results show that the main pollution indexes of shallow groundwater in Daxing district are higher, and total hardness largely exceeds the norm. The southern and eastern water quality is better than the other parts. Distribution of pollution sources, surface geological environment and the conditions of groundwater storage largely influence the water quality. Daxing district needs to establish and perfect the mechanism of the utilization and protection to groundwater resources.

    With mathematical methods and modern computer technology, according to the Dongliao River flow characteristics, hydrology, pollution and water quality data, the latest version of Water Quality Analysis Simulation Program (WASP) WASP7.3 recommended by USEPA was selected to quantitatively describe the relationship of discharged pollutants and the water quality. The temporal and spatial variation characteristics of the main pollutant (ammonia) in Dongliao River 2009 was also simulated and analyzed. The results showed that: WASP7.3 has strong applicability in Dongliao River Basin. From the temporal variation characteristics, it shows that the ammonia concentration of each segment in the dry season is the highest, followed by the wet period, and the minimum in normal-water period. From the spatial distribution characteristics, the ammonia concentration of segment 8, 9 and 10 is far more than the water quality standard, which is mainly in the downstream of Liaoyuan City. The simulation results show that the deterioration of water quality in Dongliao River is mainly due to the point and non-point source pollution and the decrease of precipitation. It will provide science to improve the water quality and protect the ecology of Dongliao River.

    Based on the experimental data collected from Dongliao basin, we performed statistics and geo-statistics analysis to investigate the spatial variability of soil parameters and soil moisture of spring maize during August 2009. The results showed that the optimum semi-variogram models of soil moisture in 10cm-deep, total nitrogen, coarse sand, fine sand and coarse silt were the linear model. The semi-variogram models of soil moisture in 20cm-deep and 30cm-deep displayed the spherical model. The semi-variogram models of organic matter, total phosphorus, fine silt, coarse clay and fine clay were best described with the Gaussian model. There was a strong spatial correlation for soil moisture in 20cm-deep and 30cm-deep, organic matter, total phosphorus, fine silt, coarse clay and fine clay. There spatial autocorrelation were also significant. Kriging-interpolating maps of above mentioned soil parameters had obvious slabby and plaques characteristic.

    Dispersion clay has smaller particles, and its water permeability is weak, in low-salinity water or pure water, the coupling force between fine particles mostly disappear. With dynamic load, it is easy to excess pore water pressure, resulting in strength reduced by small or lost. In this paper, we use dynamic torsional shear tests to study the dispersion clay`s dynamic characteristics at different moisture content(10%~22%), confining pressure(50kpa~150kpa) and dry density(1.35g/cm3~1.65g/cm3). The results showed that: moisture content, confining pressure and dry density affect contact between soil particles, then affect the dynamic strength of specimen. As specimens have the same other initial conditions, the lower the moisture content, the greater the shear strength of the specimen; the greater the confining pressure, the greater the shear strength of the specimen; the grater the dry density, the greater the shear strength of the specimen; moisture content is the most important factor. the greater the dry density, the greater value of dynamic strength parameters value ,φd and Cd; under the same confining pressure, the dynamic strength of dispersion clay reduces while the vibration time increasing.

    ABSTRACT: The umbrella-type membrane is an used form of the membrane structure. On the structural design, accurately predict the structure of global and local wind pressure is essential. This paper selects the common umbrella-type membrane structural styles. Using the CFD method, with FLUENT software, it conducts the analytical study to the membrane structure surface various regions wind pressure distribution. Results of this study show that: because the inner and outer membrane umbrella wind pressure coefficient larger varying, zoning district with the sector on the basis of an increase in the midpoint radius of the inner partition of the method is reasonable; the umbrella membrane Greater curvature, so distribution of wind pressure coefficients vary greatly, usually the largest absolute value of positive and negative extremes are larger, the local pressure coefficient is very large, particularly at the windward corner and close the umbrella hole location. It’s Important to designers.
