Most of basins were controlled by regional northwest\| and south\|north treading faults, and a few basins were constrained by northwest\| or north\|north\|east\|treading local faults.The detailed field mapping and sedimentologic observations for 6 typical Tertiary basins in eastern Tibet show that their types include depressive basins, rifting basins, pull\|apart and extensional basins related to strike\|slip faulting, and erosion\|residual basins. Recently, most of them are controlled by compression\| or thrust\|related margin faults in single side or double laterals of these basins. Not\|well\|developed strata in the Tertiary basins were deformed to form various tight folds and thrusts. High\|K magma intruded widely into the basins. The tectono\|sedimentary evolution of the Tertiary basins appears tempo\|spatially inhomogeneous. The preliminary model to interpret the Tertiary basin evolution is described as below.展开更多

We conducted sedimentological and stratigraphic investigations in the northeastern Qiangtang terrane, eastern Tibetan Plateau. Our results indicate development of several nonmarine basins during Paleogene(?) time, probably synchronous with northeast\|southwest contractional deformation. The Nangqian and Xialaxiu basins (96°～97°E, 32°～33°N) are composed of 500～ 20000m thick successions of primarily clastic sediment indicative of lacustrine and alluvial\|fan depositional processes. Paleocurrent measurements and sediment compositional data indicate local sediment source areas composed of Carboniferous\|Triassic carbonate and sandstone and minor Tertiary volcanic rocks. The large variability of provenance and facies types suggest that each basin evolved independently, as opposed to regional development of a single integrated basin which was partitioned by later deformation.展开更多

Key geological features include: (1) obvio us time difference between plate collision and uplift of the plateau; (2) developments of intracrustal low\|velocity layers , low resistivity layers and discontinuous subhorizontal reflectors; (3) similar results between the rate and time of uplift of the Qinghai\|Tibet plateau and the time and rate of subsidence of its surrounding basins; (4) subhorizontal detachments and metamorphic core complexes occurred in Himalayan and Longmenshan; (5) weak deformation of late Cenozoic sediments and development of major steeply to gently dipping normal faults in the central part of the plateau; (6) discovery of high pressure and ultrahigh pressure metamorphic rocks in Nanbajiawa; (7) young volcanic rocks distributed from the northern plateau to the southern plateau; (8) nearly concordant processes among thrusting , mountain building, horizontal extension and intrusion of leucogranite in Himalayans.展开更多

Sedimentary sequences in the basin consist of the Fenghuoshan Group, the Yaxicuo Group, and the early Miocene Wudaoliang Group from lower to upper. Magnetostratigraphic research has indicated the Eocene to early Oligocene ages for the Fenghuoshan and Yaxicuo Groups (Liu, et al., 2000). Total 29 lithological sections with 20487 7m thick were measured spread all over the 101000km\+2 Hoh Xil basin, the largest Tertiary sedimentary basin in the hinterland of the Tibetan plateau, to reveal the prototype basin and its evolution processes. They include 17 sections with 14925 3m thick of the Fenghuoshan Group, 8 sections with 4273 5m thick of the Yaxicuo Group, and 4 sections with 1284 9m thick of the Wudaoliang Group.展开更多

In general, a k-attractor of DTCNN is not a convergent point. But in this paper, it is proved that a k-attractor is a convergent point if the strict DTCNN satisfies some conditions. The attraction basin of the strict DTCNN is studied, one example is given to illustrate the previous conclusions to be wrong, and several results are presented. The obtained results on k-attractor and attraction basin not only correct the previous results, but also provide a theoretical foundation of performance analysis and new applications of the DTCNN.展开更多
