摘要:

目前中国有60余处四分量钻孔应变测点, 这些测点的观测数据在地球动力学和地震前兆等研究中均发挥着重要作用。但在实际观测中, 不少四分量钻孔应变仪会受到不同周期气压波的干扰。截至目前, 还鲜有关于该类仪器对气压频响效应研究的报道。文中以江宁台为例, 尝试采用传递函数对其进行系统诊断; 在此基础上, 进一步利用双衬套力学模型反演其钻孔围岩的力学参数。结果表明: 1)在0.1~30cpd频带内, 气压和钻孔应变的相干性较好; 2)低频带(0.1~0.5cpd)的气压响应最好, 高频带(>8cpd)次之, 中频带(0.5~8cpd)则略差; 3)若不考虑日波和半日波频段的影响, 在整个频带内, 4个分量的应变和面应变气压系数谱近线性平稳; 4)在高频带, 钻孔应变对气压响应的相位谱呈指数形式上升, 平均滞后约24.2°, 频率依赖性明显; 5)利用面应变低频气压系数均值反演的钻孔围岩弹性模量和泊松比分别为33.9GPa和0.27。以上结果将不仅有助于气压效应的分频改正, 同时还能为钻孔围岩力学参数的定量反演提供新方法。

Abstract:

To date, more than 60 four-component borehole strainmeters have been deployed in China to provide more data on geodynamics and earthquake precursors. In practice, the strain signals recorded by the four-component borehole strainmeters are greatly disturbed by the effect of barometric pressure at different frequencies. Therefore, precisely deciphering the frequency-dependent strain response to barometric pressure changes in the frequency domain is very significant for continuous high-resolution borehole strainmeter measurements. However, no much related research has been conducted in this day. For these more than 60 four-component borehole strainmeters being operated in Mainland China, the study of properties(e.g., Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio)of borehole surrounding rock are seldom probed via rock mechanical testing has not been given enough attention, compared that with in the USA and Japan, consequently, which makes it difficult in the understanding of the driving mechanism of atmospheric effects.

Beginning at 2006, a YRY-4 type borehole strainmeter was installed approximately at 50m depth in the Jiangning area to precisely monitor the earthquake precursors and tectonic movements in Jiangsu Province. For daily observation, the atmospheric effect is quite obvious in different frequency bands. Therefore, we applied transfer function to uncover features, such as barometric pressure coefficient and phase shift, of frequency dependence observed at Jiangning station in Jiangsu Province in high-(>8cpd), intermediate-(0.5~8cpd), and low-frequency(0.1~0.5cpd)bands. Furthermore, the double bush mechanical model was adopted to estimate the parameters of elastic modulus and Poisson's ratio for the borehole surrounding rock.

The results show that: 1)The values of coherence in the frequency band(0.1~30cpd)are higher than in others. 2)The barometric pressure responses were very stable and valid in the low-frequency band, and remained stable in the high-frequency band(8~30cpd), but significantly fluctuated in the intermediate-frequency band. 3)If the impacts of the diurnal and semidiurnal tidal waves are neglected, the spectra of barometric pressure response coefficients for the four borehole sensors and areal strain were quasi-linear and stable. 4)In the high-frequency band, the spectra of phase responses for borehole strains behaved exponentially, strongly depending on frequency, with the average phase delay of about 24.2°. 5)The estimated elastic modulus and Poisson's ratio were 33.9GPa and 0.27 according to the averaged barometric-pressure response coefficients of areal strain, respectively, in which the estimated parameters showed good agreement with the results obtained via rock mechanical testing.

These above findings will be useful for separating the nonlinear barometric responses from the four-component borehole strainmeter records, as well as for estimating the mechanical parameters of the borehole surrounding rock. In the future, more and more rock cores taken from boreholes may disappear with time. So exploring the potential values of transfer function is an important work in the field of borehole strain study. In the near future, we will reconstruct the rock mechanical parameters of borehole surrounding rock for other unstudied sites in mainland China.
