Based on the investigation of the application of machine-made sand in Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province, this paper analyses the supply and demand of local machine-made sand, combined with the application of machine-made sand in highway engineering projects such as Hangzhou Shaoxing Taizhou expressway. It discusses the problems existing in the current machine-made sand industry, such as slow overall application, uneven quality and low application of high-grade concrete, and puts forward many measures to promote high-quality machine-made sand. In the application of high-grade concrete, it is suggested that the government should develop the machine-made sand market jointly with many departments, increase efforts to crack down on the inferior sand, cultivate the high-quality machine-made sand market, and improve the engineering quality of the machine-made sand concrete. 1 Introduction the current promotion and application of machine-made sand, and puts forward the future development direction In recent years, with the Chinese government investing of machine-made sand industry. heavily in the construction of transportation infrastructure, the demand for building materials has increased dramatically, especially the introduction of documents 2 Current situation of machine-made such as the outline of building a powerful transportation sand industry country issued by the State Council. In the next few years, the traffic construction will be greatly developed. 2.1. Sand demand However, as an important material of concrete, the natural river sand, due to the huge consumption, the continuous Taking the sand used in Shaoxing as the survey object, the depletion of resources and environmental protection annual investment of the city's comprehensive problems, has become increasingly serious. The machine- transportation construction is basically over 22 billion, made sand is made of the mineral materials that meet the involving many types of projects, such as expressway, requirements of the parent rock. After treatment, it is national and provincial highway, rail transit, urban viaduct, mechanically broken, screened and shaped to make the etc, involving a wide range of points. The demand for particle size less than 4.75mm. At the same time, its concrete in these projects is basically over 3 million particle shape and grading meet the construction square meters per year, and the proportion of sand in requirements. The replacement of the machine-made sand concrete is the largest, accounting for the proportion of for the natural river sand is the future development trend concrete about 30% of the concrete structure. According [1]. Compared with river sand, machine-made sand has to this calculation, the annual sand consumption in the the advantages of high economic benefit, controllable comprehensive traffic construction field of the city will quality and easy to adjust production because of its reach more than 1 million square meters. convenient material and industrial production [2]. Popularizing and applying machine-made sand is not only the main measure to alleviate the dilemma of sand used in 2.2. Source of sand highway engineering, but also the direction of green At present, there are three main forms of sand used in development of highway engineering, which is of great highway engineering in Shaoxing area. significance for building a powerful transportation The first one is high-quality natural river sand. country. Based on the investigation of the application of According to the investigation, the source of high-quality machine-made sand in Shaoxing area of Zhejiang natural river sand used in highway engineering in the past Province, combined with the current situation of the is basically the river sand produced in Shengzhou of this application of local machine-made sand in highway city.

The sand for highway engineering is basically unqualified. According to statistics, in the past four years purchased to meet the construction needs of the city, of supervision and sampling inspection, there have been mainly from Poyang Lake in Jiangxi, Ganjiang region, three batches of sand with excessive chloride ion content Bohai Bay in Liaoning, Guangxi and other regions. in the city's highway engineering projects. If the chloride However, due to the long transportation distance, the site ion content in the sea sand is large, it will have strong price is relatively high. Taking Shaoxing city as an corrosiveness to the steel bar and bring great harm to the example, the price is more than 230 Yuan per ton. safety and durability of the engineering structure [3]. Moreover, for highway engineering with large demand, it The third type is high-quality machine-made sand, is difficult for high-quality natural river sand in other areas which refers to the rock particles with the particle size less to fill up quickly meet the construction needs. than 4.75mm made by de mining, mechanical crushing The second is inferior sand, including sea sand after and screening, excluding the particles of soft rock and simple desalination, natural sand with excessive mud weathered rock [4]. At present, the machine-made sand content, weathered rock machine-made sand, stone chips used in the highway projects under construction in the city powder, etc. At present, the site price of this kind of sand is mainly in the form of self-processing and outsourcing. is less than 150 Yuan per ton. According to the survey, In this paper, four representative production lines of some project construction units use a large number of machine-made sand are selected for comparison through inferior sand driven by interests, that is, a certain amount field investigation of the production of machine-made of inferior sand is mixed into the natural high-quality sand, sand in the city and surrounding areas, as shown in Table and the quality of the sand mixed is difficult to distinguish. 1.

The approach can effectively avoid difficulties caused by intractable fermionic fields which are anticommuting. By solving the coupled bosonic equations, the traveling wave solutions of the sIto system are obtained with the mapping and deformation method. Some novel types of exact solutions for the supersymmetric system are constructed with the solu- tions and symmetries of the usual Ito equation. In the meanwhile, the similarity reduction solutions of the model are also studied with the Lie point symmetry theory.

    2nd International Conference on Management Science and Industrial Engineering (MSIE 2013) Coupling Relationship between International Image and Linear regression analysis of Signs Translation Practice in the Tourist Scenic Spots Changqing Fu, Qingping Zhang Hainan Foreign Language College of Professional Education, Wenchang, Hainan, China [email protected] Keywords: Practice training; Linear regression; Differential mean value theorem; Influence factors; Coupling relationship Abstract. Since China entered the WTO and successfully hosted the Olympic Games, the communication and exchange between China and other countries has become increasingly closer, and the international status has been improved greatly. With the rapid development of the tourism industry and further opening up to the outside world, more and more foreign tourists come to China for traveling, and the number of the bilingual signs and logos in the tourist attractions is gradually increasing, but there still exist a lot of mistranslation cases. As the signs in the public places and in the tourist attractions are the symbol of cultural soft power, translation accuracy of the signs has been of great significance. This paper mainly focuses on the spelling errors, grammar errors, standardizing the professional technical terms, rectifying the mistranslation behaviors, specialization degree and cultural differences of tourist attractions’ signs to have statistical analysis. Based on the analysis of mistranslation cases, the statistical linear regression theory is conducted on the composite influence on the signs translation. Ultimately this paper presents some constructive ideas and suggestions on how to improve the translation practice of the signs and the logos, and to provide theoretical reference to enhance the international image of tourist attractions.

  • Predicting Method for Time-Dependent Concrete Carbonation Depth (I): Traditional Model and Its Error Distribution
    Predicting Method for Time-Dependent Concrete Carbonation Depth (I): Traditional Model and Its Error Distribution Zhijian Shu School of Engineering, Lishui University, Lishui, China Wei Wang* School of Engineering, Shaoxing University, Shaoxing, China *Corresponding author, e-mail: [email protected] Chunyang Cheng School of Engineering, Shaoxing University, Shaoxing, China Xiaocui Tang School of Engineering, Lishui University, Lishui, China ABSTRACT Carbonation of concrete is one important subject in civil engineering because it is harmful to compressive strength and durability of corresponding structures such as subways, buildings and bridges. It is of great importance to properly understand its mechanism and developing process. In this paper, main influencing factors of concrete carbonation are discussed. Traditional mathematical models to predict time-dependent carbonation depth based on Fick's first law of diffusion are classified and generalized. Three sets investigated data are used to verify the applicability and accuracy of the generalized k-0.5 model and its fitted error distribution. Finally, common shortcoming and its essential reason of the k-0.5 model are proclaimed. KEYWORDS: carbonation depth, concrete, mathematical model, error distribution INTRODUCTION Carbonation of concrete indicates the physical-chemical action process between concrete stone and carbon dioxide from atmosphere producing calcium carbonate (Das, et al. 2012; He and Jia 2011). This action process is often dominated by three aspects. The first aspect is concrete materials including cement/water ratio, kind and mass of cement, fine and coarse aggregates and their gradations, and admixture (Nishi 1962; Zhang and Jiang 1990; Zhu 1992; Bouzoubaâ, et al. 2010; Mohamed, et al. 2013; Gao, et al.
