Creation and Design of Energy Center
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Rural Alaskan communities have special challenges to supply dependable heat and electric power while preserving environmental quality. To help address these issues in a coherent fashion, we have established an energy center ...
Fully Coupled Model of Ice-Jam Dynamics
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a numerical model that simulates the dynamic failure and re-formation of an ice jam. The model comprises a simultaneous solution of the 1D, unsteady flow equations (conservation of mass and momentum) ...
Experimental Investigation of Fracture Toughness of Frozen Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This note presents an experimental study on the fracture toughness of frozen soil. Notched bend specimens were used in the test. Some preliminary results are given to describe the effects of temperature, water content, and ...

Bohai Sea Ice Monitoring Using Satellite Images
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Sea ice monitoring and forecasting in the Bohai Sea is an operational task of the National Research Center for Marine Forecasts (NRCMEF), China. An overview of current satellite image receiving and processing systems at ...
Bohai Sea Ice Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Oil and gas exploration and production and other maritime activities are rapidly increasing in the Bohai Sea. Since sea ice occurs every winter in this region, it poses serious threats to these activities. The presence of ...
Modeling and Forecasting of Bohai Sea Ice
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The sea ice model for simulating ice growth, decay, and drift in the Bohai Sea was developed based on the ice conditions in the Sea and on existing sea ice models. Both dynamic and thermodynamic processes of sea ice are ...
Ice-Induced Jacket Structure Vibrations in Bohai Sea
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Full-scale tests of ice-structure interaction were conducted on three multileg jacket platforms in Bohai Sea. Two of them were installed with ice-breaking cones on each of their four legs to reduce ice force and mitigate ...
Resilient Behavior of Unbound Granular Materials Subjected to a Closed-System Freeze-Thaw Cycle
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The resilient modulus of a base course granular material is an important input parameter for pavement design and analysis. In recent decades, numerous studies have been performed to characterize and model the resilient ...
