Multiscale Prediction of Viscoelastic Properties of Asphalt Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The low viscosity of asphalt concrete at
Safety Assessment of Concrete Tunnel Linings under Fire Load
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An assessment of the structural performance of concrete tunnel linings under fire load is presented for the Lainzer Tunnel, a shallow tunnel recently constructed in Austria. Prior to the installation of the concrete lining ...
Artificial Ground Freezing of Fully Saturated Soil: Viscoelastic Behavior
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The transport and mechanical properties of saturated soil drastically change when temperatures drop below the freezing temperature of water. During artificial ground freezing, this change of properties is exploited in order ...
Thermochemomechanical Assessment of Ground Improvement by Jet Grouting in Tunneling
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Horizontal jet grouting (HJG) is employed in urban tunneling in order to reduce surface settlements and, hence, to avoid damage of infrastructure and surface buildings. The widespread use of HJG raises the question of its ...
