Frost heaving forces in Leda Clay

open access: yes, 1970
The frost heaving forces developed under a 1 ft (30.5 cm) diameter steel plate were measured in the field throughout one winter. The steel plate was fixed at the ground surface with a rock-anchored reaction frame.

Effects of heaving and pitching motions on underside aerodynamics of a sedan vehicle

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2019
Unsteady pressure distributions around a simplified sedan automobile model were investigated by conducting dynamic wind-tunnel testing using the newly developed forced oscillating apparatus, HEXA-X3, which can produce 6-degrees-of-freedom motion.

Experiments on the Heaving Force of Freezing Soil

open access: yes, 1977
Frost heaving of soil is accompanied by a force which often causes severe damage to structures. It was suggested by Everett that this so-called “heaving force" can be attributed to the coexistence of ice and water in micropores among soil particles which

Experimental study on water transfer of soil-rock mixtures under freezing action

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao
The frost-heaving failure of earth-rock dam slopes is mainly caused by the combined action of sand and gravel cushion, frost heaving of dam fills and water migration.

Sensitivity of freezing and thawing influencing factors of pipeline foundation soils in permafrost region

open access: yesYou-qi chuyun, 2020
For the oil and gas pipeline operating in the permafrost regions, buckling deformation is usually caused by frost heaving and thaw settlement of the foundation soil, which affects the safety and stability of pipeline seriously.

Sensitivity Analysis of Pipe–Soil Interaction Influencing Factors under Frost Heaving

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
The mechanism of pipe–soil interaction under frost heaving is complicated due to many factors affecting the pipe–soil system. In order to analyze the sensitivity of various pipe–soil interaction influencing factors and highlight the relationship between ...

Ultrasensitive Anti‐Stokes Luminescence Thermometry in Transition Metal Dichalcogenide Monolayers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We demonstrate a highly sensitive nanothermometer using anti‐Stokes photoluminescence, also known as photoluminescence upconversion (UPL), in monolayer tungsten disulfide. A strong resonantly enhanced UPL is observed, confirming the central role of optical phonons in the PL upconversion mechanism.
