Calcareous sand, as a blow-fill or construction material, is widely used in island and reef construction projects in marine environments after treatment. When microorganism-induced mineralization is used to strengthen calcareous sand, salinity and other conditions in the marine environment will adversely affect microorganisms or their mineralization process. For this reason, the two environmental conditions created by deionized water and simulated seawater were introduced to explore their effects on the growth and urease activity of Sporosarcina pasteurii. Then, the changes in the permeability and mechanical strength of calcareous sand under different mineralization methods were compared by one-dimensional sand column tests. Finally, the reinforcement mechanism was compared and analyzed based on the results of scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction tests. The results show that Sporosarcina pasteurii can induce carbonate and phosphate precipitation and mineralization to strengthen calcareous sand in simulated seawater. The mineralized products greatly reduce the permeability of calcareous sand and significantly improve the mechanical strength by wrapping calcareous sand particles, filling water seepage channels and cementing adjacent particles. The reinforcement effect of carbonate mineralization is better than that of phosphate mineralization, but phosphate mineralization has less impact on the environment during the treatment process.

AbstractA smoothed particle hydrodynamics code based on micropolar continua for geomaterials is developed for problems involving large deformation and shear strain localization. Two typical geotechnical problems, i.e., biaxial compression test and sand column collapse, are simulated using classical and micropolar model to demonstrate the performance of the newly proposed method. A parameter study is given on the scale effect in the micropolar continua.

This paper studies a buffer overflow valve that is attached to a hydraulic rotary motor which could reduce high hydraulic impact when the hydraulic rotary motor starts, brakes or suddenly reverses. A rotary motor buffer overflow valve was modeled and simulated using a computer software, AMESim, and the relation of the buffer overflow valve to the hydraulic impact experienced by the motor was analyzed. The cushioning property of the buffer overflow valve of a rotary motor is verified by using an excavator. It is concluded that having a reasonable design of the buffer overflow valve’s maximum displacement for the buffer set and diameter size for the buffer damping hole, it can reduce the pressure impact experienced by the hydraulic rotary motor and improve its operating performance, which also improves the service life of the system or its hydraulic components.
