Trend and Outlook of Carbon Emission from Energy Consumption in Guangdong Province, China
Yaoqiu KUANG
2015, 2(1): 1-10. doi: 10.16516/j.gedi.issn2095-8676.2015.01.001
Abstract:
Energy consumption is the main source of carbon dioxide from human activity, and carbon mitigation has become an important constraint on the energy development in China. The total CO2 emission of the World in 2012 from energy consumption is up to 3.173 4×1010 t of CO2. The total CO2 emission from energy consumption in China occupies 26.0% of the World total. The per capita emission for the World in 2012 is 4 510 kg CO2, and it is 6 093 kg CO2 for China. The per capita emission for Guangdong province in 2012 is 5 224 kg CO2, which is higher than that for the world but lower than that for China. With the progress of the effort for energy conservation and emissions reduction as well as combating climate change, the per unit production energy consumption level in Guangdong Province is becoming lower year by year, and the energy mix is also improving, which suppressed the growth tendacy of the CO2 emission from fossil fuel consumption in the province. The total emission in 2012 is a little less than that in 2011. It is predicted according to the present trend situation, the total carbon emission from energy consumption in Guangdong province will reach 1.606 2×108 t carbon equivalent in 2020, about 9.69×106 t of carbon equivalent more than that in 2012. And the per capita emission will reach 5 287 kg, a little higher than the 5 224 kg in 2012. If the development of the third industry is accelerated during the thirteenth five-year period, the total consumption of fossil fuel in 2020 will be 2.7% less than that in 2012, and the total CO2 emission will be 3.5% less than that in 2012. The per capita CO2 emission will be lowered from 5 224 kg in 2012 to 4 795 kg in 2020, which will be approching the average level of the world then.

2015, 2(1): 17-21. doi: 10.16516/j.gedi.issn2095-8676.2015.01.003
Abstract:
Smart grid has become one of the main development trends of power grid all over the world. However, smart control depends on waste area and high frequency monitor. The huge size of the monitor data has exceeded traditional database's ability because it can only handle limited data size with the centralized and serialized data process method. Big data technologies using distributed parallelized approaches overcome the above shortcuts, and make a big success in many practical areas. In this paper, we focus on the challenges in smart grid data process, and discuss the methods how to adapt the technologies for smart grid. Our target is to establish an information platform for smart grid construction in near future.

Research on Design Methods of Deepwater Floating Systems in Ocean Engineering
Mindong YANG, Ling SHI
2015, 2(1): 81-87. doi: 10.16516/j.gedi.issn2095-8676.2015.01.016
Abstract:
Deepwater floating systems are mainly composed of floating hull, mooring system and riser system. The design analysis of floating platform and mooring/riser is very important for normal operation and running safely. For the design of floating platform, the hydrodynamic analysis is usually performed in frequency domain, and then the hydrodynamic loads are transferred to the finite element model to execute structural FE analysis. The design of the platform can be performed by combining the hydrodynamic analysis results and finite element analysis results with national standards. In addition, effective coupled analysis of the floating system in time domain must be executed due to the nonlinearity and dynamic properties. The results of global response can be used for the initial design of platform and mooring/riser system, and also can be used in the detailed design with the results as the dynamic boundary conditions of mooring/riser. According to these two design ideas, this paper gives a brief introduction of analysis flow, special problems and solution methods, and then introduce the steps of analysis of platform and mooring/riser by combining application of software.

Rongpeng WANG, Ganjun WANG, Yijiang Wu
2015, 2(1): 88-91. doi: 10.16516/j.gedi.issn2095-8676.2015.01.017
Abstract:
The dynamic responses of a transmission tower with angle section members under lateral wind loadings are actively investigated in this study. A real large scale transmission tower is taken as an example to establish the dynamic analytical model by using three dimensional beam elements. The wind loadings in the lateral direction, which are acted on the transmission tower, are simulated to investigate the structural dynamic responses. The observations indicate that the dynamic responses in both the lateral and longitudinal directions are observed if the tower is subjected to lateral wind loadings. The peak wind induced responses in the lateral direction are much larger than those in the longitudinal direction. In addition, the peak stresses of some major members are larger than the yielding strength of the steel material. Therefore, the effects of the lateral wind loadings should be taken into consideration in the design and construction of the transmission tower.

2015, 2(1): 92-97,114. doi: 10.16516/j.gedi.issn2095-8676.2015.01.018
Abstract:
The typical sandstone on dam foundation of Xiangjiaba hydropower station are taken samples. The creep characteristics of the sandstone are studied by triaxial compression tests. The damage characteristics of instability phase, axial strain, lateral strain and volume strain of the whole process of creep curve are analyzed, then the long-term strength of sandstone is evaluated. The results show that there is a starting stress threshold of sandstone under creepage, each creep curve has a instantaneous strain under each load which the instantaneous strain will decrease with the increase of confining stress and deviatoric stress, the axial instantaneous strain has well linear relation with the deviatoric stress. There are obvious three phases for lateral strain and volume strain, and the lateral strain and volume strain have higher growth rate than the axial strain while the creep curves are similar to each other. The lateral creep strain is higher than the axial and volume creep strain under the same confining stress or deviatoric stress. The long-term strength of sandstone can be determined by the partial stress-strain curve clusters which the volume partial stress-strain curve cluster is the best. Finally, the burgers model is most suitable model to simulate the creep characteristic of sandstone amond the current rheological constitutive models
