Field experiment of vibration characteristics of lightweight embankments converted from bridges using rigid polyurethane foam-filling under traffic load

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials, 2023
The method of filling the lower space of a bridge with rigid polyurethane foam (RPU foam) to reduce the traffic load along with seismic reinforcement has rarely been applied to extend the life of bridges in Japan.

Undrained vane shear strength of sand-foam mixtures subjected to different shear rates

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2023
The shear strength of sand-foam mixtures plays a crucial role in ensuring successful earth pressure balance (EPB) shield tunneling. Since the sand-foam mixtures are constantly sheared by the cutterhead and the screw conveyor with varied rotation speeds ...

Low-Temperature Industrial Waste Heat (IWH) Recovery Using a New Design for Fast-Charging Thermal Energy Storage Units

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
The dynamic melting of CuO–coconut oil was addressed in a latent-heat thermal energy storage unit loaded with copper foam. In a new design, the thermal storage unit is made of a shell-tube-shaped chamber, in which a liquid flow of hot phase-change ...

Understanding aqueous foam with novel CO2-soluble surfactants for controlling CO2 vertical sweep in sandstone reservoirs

open access: yesPetroleum Science, 2017
The ability of a novel nonionic CO2-soluble surfactant to propagate foam in porous media was compared with that of a conventional anionic surfactant (aqueous soluble only) through core floods with Berea sandstone cores.
