RISEstablishment and Verification of a Thermal Conductivity Model for Fine-Grained Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Abstract Soil thermal conductivity (STC), which plays an important role in the analysis of
soil heat transfer, is widely used in various fields. In this study, based on the
McKee and Bumb model for the soil-water characteristic ...
Experimental Investigation and Strength Prediction Model for Unsaturated Concrete under the Coupled Action of Freeze–Thaw Cycles and Salt Erosion
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Abstract To study the changing law of compressive strength for concrete with different saturation
degrees, water, sodium chloride (NaCl), and sodium sulfate (Na2SO4) solutions are used to erode concrete specimens. Concrete ...
Experimental Study of the Shear Strength of Petroleum-Contaminated Soil under Freeze–Thaw Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Abstract The development and exploitation of petroleum resources in cold regions have exacerbated
the risk of petroleum spills, which can adversely affect the safety of infrastructure,
particularly under freeze–thaw cycles. ...
Effects of Freeze–Thaw Cycles and Water Content on the Mechanical Properties of Artificially Prepared Structured Loess
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Abstract Loess is a type of structured soil widely distributed in seasonal frozen regions.
Its mechanical properties are significantly influenced by the number of freeze–thaw
cycles (N) and water content (ω), often leading ...
Study of Snow Drift Blockage of Ventilated Embankments in Snowy Permafrost Regions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Abstract The degradation of embankment permafrost has been exacerbated by climate warming and
human engineering activities. Ventilated embankments effectively cool the embankment
permafrost. However, snow accumulation in ...
