    Notes: The influence of environmental corrosion on fatigue life of 2024-T3 aluminum alloy isinvestigated in this paper. Experiments with center-hole specimens and CC(T) specimens areconducted and reported. The test result shows that the corrosion influence is becoming seriouswhile the environmental causticity is increasing, and the influence on crack initiation life is greaterthan that on crack propagation life. Analysis of the test data also indicates that the environmentalcausticity enlarges the dispersivity of fatigue life. Using the corrosion-modification-factor obtainedby eigenvalue or mean value to prediction the fatigue life with high reliability will cause anunconservative conclusion

    Notes: The problem of multiple site damage (MSD) has got more attention in ageing structures.Cumulative effects of interacting cracks may significantly degrade the damage tolerance capacity ofstructures. Cracks caused by MSD are extremely difficult to detect and greatly reduce the residualstrength, fatigue life and overall structural integrity of aircraft panels. This paper presents a simplenumerical method, which use the principles of fracture mechanics and the computation results, topredict the fatigue crack growth life of MSD structure. Comparing with calculating crack growth lifecycle by cycle, this method will save much time. To verify the validity of the proposed method,experiment was conducted and reported with simulation specimen of representative MSD structurewith 5 details. The comparison between the calculated a-N curves and the crack growth lives and thetest results shows that the prediction result with this fast method is acceptable. A discussion wascarried out by numerical analysis; in with typical MSD structures with different initial crack lengthwere adopted. Crack interaction effect was found obviously, but it occurred mainly in the last part ofthe crack growth lives. The relative size of MSD cracks depends significantly on the distribution ofthe initial cracks

    Notes: This study investigated the residual strength of aluminum alloy sheet with multiple sitedamage (MSD) through three types of aluminum specimens test. Aluminum panels with barecollinear constant diameter holes were chosen as specimens. And there were saw cuts at both edgesof all the holes. After some constant amplitude tension-tension load cycles, the MSD were found inthese specimens since there were multiple fatigue cracks emanating from the saw cuts of holes. Theresidual strength was recorded as the maximum load when every specimen was subjected tomonotonically increasing tensile load until failure occurred. The test results were compared withpredicted residual strength results by five different failure prediction criteria that were often used inengineering in order to evaluate the accuracy of these criteria. The failure criteria included: fracturecriterion, net ligament loss criterion, ligament yield criterion, CTOA/CTOD criterion and averagestress criterion. Ligament yield criterion (Swift criterion) and average stress criterion got moreaccurate prediction results than other criteria

    Notes: Crack propagation tests were conducted with CCT specimens made by 2024-T3 Aluminumalloy in benign and corrosive environments to investigate the stochastic characteristics of crackgrowth. A random variable probability crack growth model, base on the modified form of Paris law,was used to characterize the stochastic performance. Distribution significance test has been done,which shows that the random variable X can be considered reasonably to follow log-normaldistribution in all the 4 kind of environments. Variance analysis indicates that the scatter in wet air isgreater than that in laboratory air significantly. Expressions for the probability distribution of cracksize at any given loading cycle and the probability distribution of the random fatigue life at which agiven crack size is reached were discussed. The corresponding calculations for the crack lengthdistribution and P-a-N curves with certain reliability were carried out. The comparisons withexperimental data indicate the validity of the proposed method

    Description: Compound‐specific radiocarbon analysis was performed on different grain‐size fractions of surficial sediments to examine and compare lateral transport times (LTTs) of organic carbon. 14C aging of long‐chain leaf wax fatty acids along two dispersal pathways of fluvially derived material on adjacent continental margins implies LTTs over distances of ~30 to 500 km that range from hundreds to thousands of years. The magnitude of aging differs among grain size fractions. Our finding suggests that LTTs vary both temporally and spatially as a function of the specific properties of different continental shelf settings. Observations suggest that 14C aging is widespread during lateral transport over continental shelves, with hydrodynamic particle sorting inducing age variations among organic components residing in different grain sizes. Consideration of these phenomena is of importance for understanding carbon cycle processes and interpretation on sedimentary records on continental margins.

    Description: Combined analyses of deep tow magnetic anomalies and International Ocean Discovery Program Expedition 349 cores show that initial seafloor spreading started around 33 Ma in the northeastern South China Sea (SCS), but varied slightly by 1–2 Myr along the northern continent-ocean boundary (COB). A southward ridge jump of ∼20 km occurred around 23.6 Ma in the East Subbasin; this timing also slightly varied along the ridge and was coeval to the onset of seafloor spreading in the Southwest Subbasin, which propagated for about 400 km southwestward from ∼23.6 to ∼21.5 Ma. The terminal age of seafloor spreading is ∼15 Ma in the East Subbasin and ∼16 Ma in the Southwest Subbasin. The full spreading rate in the East Subbasin varied largely from ∼20 to ∼80 km/Myr, but mostly decreased with time except for the period between ∼26.0 Ma and the ridge jump (∼23.6 Ma), within which the rate was the fastest at ∼70 km/Myr on average. The spreading rates are not correlated, in most cases, to magnetic anomaly amplitudes that reflect basement magnetization contrasts. Shipboard magnetic measurements reveal at least one magnetic reversal in the top 100 m of basaltic layers, in addition to large vertical intensity variations. These complexities are caused by late-stage lava flows that are magnetized in a different polarity from the primary basaltic layer emplaced during the main phase of crustal accretion. Deep tow magnetic modeling also reveals this smearing in basement magnetizations by incorporating a contamination coefficient of 0.5, which partly alleviates the problem of assuming a magnetic blocking model of constant thickness and uniform magnetization. The primary contribution to magnetic anomalies of the SCS is not in the top 100 m of the igneous basement.

    Description: Coring/logging data and physical property measurements from International Ocean Discovery Program Expedition 349 are integrated with, and correlated to, reflection seismic data to map seismic sequence boundaries and facies of the central basin and neighboring regions of the South China Sea. First-order sequence boundaries are interpreted, which are Oligocene/Miocene, middle Miocene/late Miocene, Miocene/Pliocene, and Pliocene/Pleistocene boundaries. A characteristic early Pleistocene strong reflector is also identified, which marks the top of extensive carbonate-rich deposition in the southern East and Southwest Subbasins. The fossil spreading ridge and the boundary between the East and Southwest Subbasins acted as major sedimentary barriers, across which seismic facies changes sharply and cannot be easily correlated. The sharp seismic facies change along the Miocene-Pliocene boundary indicates that a dramatic regional tectonostratigraphic event occurred at about 5 Ma, coeval with the onsets of uplift of Taiwan and accelerated subsidence and transgression in the northern margin. The depocenter or the area of the highest sedimentation rate switched from the northern East Subbasin during the Miocene to the Southwest Subbasin and the area close to the fossil ridge in the southern East Subbasin in the Pleistocene. The most active faulting and vertical uplifting now occur in the southern East Subbasin, caused most likely by the active and fastest subduction/obduction in the southern segment of the Manila Trench and the collision between the northeast Palawan and the Luzon arc. Timing of magmatic intrusions and seamounts constrained by seismic stratigraphy in the central basin varies and does not show temporal pulsing in their activities.

    Description: To assess the influences of carbon sources and transport processes on the 14C age of organic matter (OM) in continental margin sediments, we examined a suite of samples collected along a river‐shelf‐deep ocean transect in the East China Sea (ECS). Ramped pyrolysis‐oxidiation was conducted on suspended particulate matter in the Yangtze River and on surface sediments from the ECS shelf and northern Okinawa Trough. 14C ages were determined on OM decomposition products within different temperature windows. These measurements suggest that extensive amounts of pre‐old (i.e., millennial age) organic carbon (OC) are subject to degradation within and beyond the Yangtze River Delta, and this process is accompanied by an exchange of terrestrial and marine OM. These results, combined with fatty acid concentration data, suggest that both the nature and extent of OM preservation/degradation as well as the modes of transport influence the 14C ages of sedimentary OM. Additionally, we find that the age of (thermally) refractory OC increases during across‐shelf transport and that the age offset between the lowest and highest temperature OC decomposition fractions also increases along the shelf‐to‐trough transect. Amplified interfraction spread or 14C heterogeneity is the greatest in the Okinawa Trough. Aged sedimentary OM across the transect may be a consequence of several reasons including fossil OC input, selective degradation of younger OC, hydrodynamic sorting processes, and aging during lateral transport. Consequently, each of them should be considered in assessing the 14C results of sedimentary OM and its implications for the carbon cycle and interpretation of sedimentary records.

Frontiers in Marine Science, 7, (2020): 341, doi:10.3389/fmars.2020.00341.
    Description: The vast majority of freshly produced oceanic dissolved organic carbon (DOC) is derived from marine phytoplankton, then rapidly recycled by heterotrophic microbes. A small fraction of this DOC survives long enough to be routed to the interior ocean, which houses the largest and oldest DOC reservoir. DOC reactivity depends upon its intrinsic chemical composition and extrinsic environmental conditions. Therefore, recalcitrance is an emergent property of DOC that is analytically difficult to constrain. New isotopic techniques that track the flow of carbon through individual organic molecules show promise in unveiling specific biosynthetic or degradation pathways that control the metabolic turnover of DOC and its accumulation in the deep ocean. However, a multivariate approach is required to constrain current carbon fluxes so that we may better predict how the cycling of oceanic DOC will be altered with continued climate change. Ocean warming, acidification, and oxygen depletion may upset the balance between the primary production and heterotrophic reworking of DOC, thus modifying the amount and/or composition of recalcitrant DOC. Climate change and anthropogenic activities may enhance mobilization of terrestrial DOC and/or stimulate DOC production in coastal waters, but it is unclear how this would affect the flux of DOC to the open ocean. Here, we assess current knowledge on the oceanic DOC cycle and identify research gaps that must be addressed to successfully implement its use in global scale carbon models.
