Arching Effect of Planetary Regolith Simulant under Extraterrestrial Gravities
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Attention has been devoted to the construction of off-earth base construction and mineral mining in recent years. This paper studies the influence of extraterrestrial gravities on the arching effect surrounding deeply ...
Lateral Earth Pressure Coefficient of Soils Subjected to Freeze–Thaw
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Artificial frozen soils (AFS) have been used widely as temporary retaining walls in strata with soft and water-saturated soil deposits. After excavations, frozen soils thaw, and the lateral earth pressure penetrates through ...
Stochastic Thermal-Mechanical Characteristics of Frozen Soil Foundation for a Transmission Line Tower in Permafrost Regions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The Qinghai–Tibet Power Transmission Line (QTPTL), crossing about 55 km of permafrost region, was constructed between July 21 and October 211. The long-term thermal-mechanical stabilities attract extensive attention because ...
