The evolution of the temperature field and frozen wall under different fracture conditions was examined by an artificial ground freezing‐based thermal‐hydraulic coupled model. It was observed that fracture inclination affects the interaction extent of freezing pipes and fracture, while phase transition extent is the dominant factor for heat transfer in

B1 is bord width 1, B2 is bord width 2, L is the pillar length, W is the pillar width, red color and letter A represent the pillars, and white color and number 1 represent excavated areas. Pstress is the average pillar stress; σv is the vertical component of the virgin stress, MPa; and e is the areal extraction ratio. e = B o B o + B P ${\rm{e}}=\frac{{

This research study employs analysis system (ANSYS) fluid–structure interaction simulations to investigate the generation and attenuation of vibration signals resulting from freezing pipe fractures in artificial ground freezing projects. By evaluating key variables—including frozen soil elastic modulus, brine inlet pressure, and external pipe pressure ...

The Age and Origin of Block Deposits in the Victorian Alps, Australia
ABSTRACT Large periglacial block deposits are found in the mountains of southeastern Australia. Despite their widespread distribution, their mode of formation and age are poorly understood. These landforms hold considerable potential to shed light on the nature of cooling during glacial periods. In this paper we present a new study of block deposits in

Analysis of Elastoplastic Mechanical Properties of Non-Uniform Frozen Wall Considering Frost Heave
The aim of this study was to analyze the force and deformation law of an artificial frozen wall. Thus, the frost heave coefficient was introduced to describe the frost heave characteristics, and the frozen wall was regarded as a heterogeneous material ...

Wind, waves, wing loading and the flight energetics of giant petrels
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Wind is a major factor driving seabird movement and energetics, the effects of which are modulated by morphology. Developments in tagging technology now make it possible to test predictions from aerodynamic theory about the effects of wind on flight performance in free ...

Application of Multi‐Method Dating for Understanding the Gravettian North of Moravia, Central Europe
ABSTRACT This article presents the results of integrating three methods to assess the age of the Upper Palaeolithic site of Pietraszyn 11 (SW Poland), close to the Moravian Gate. Sediment chronology determined using optically stimulated luminescence produced promising, yet ambiguous results (51.0 ± 3.7 to 20.3 ± 0.7 ka).

Development of frost heave test [PDF]
Frost heave tests conducted in laboratory conditions are very sensitive to the testing arrangements in which they are executed. There are numerous protocols in different countries but an internationally acknowledged procedure for frost heave test has not

Palynological records are central to the biostratigraphic subdivision of the Late Pleistocene in central Europe. Yet many interglacial and interstadial phases—such as the Eemian, Brörup and Odderade—remain only poorly constrained in time due to limited numerical dating.

Cold Storage Frost Heave Prevention
Selecting a frost heave prevention method for cold storage facilities focuses on the issue of frost heave, the prevention methods available, and the builders' preferences when it comes to applying those methods, dependent on the region and size of the ...
