Book Synopsis An Introduction to Frozen Ground Engineering by : Orlando B. Andersland
Download or read book An Introduction to Frozen Ground Engineering written by Orlando B. Andersland and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frozen Ground Engineering first introduces the reader to the frozen environment and the behavior of frozen soil as an engineering material. In subsequent chapters this information is used in the analysis and design of ground support systems, foundations, and embankments. These and other topics make this book suitable for use by civil engineering students in a one-semester course on frozen ground engineering at the senior or first-year-graduate level. Students are assumed to have a working knowledge of undergraduate mechanics (statics and mechanics of materials) and geotechnical engineering (usual two-course sequence). A knowledge of basic geology would be helpful but is not essential. This book will also be useful to advanced students in other disciplines and to engineers who desire an introduction to frozen ground engineering or references to selected technical publications in the field. BACKGROUND Frozen ground engineering has developed rapidly in the past several decades under the pressure of necessity. As practical problems involving frozen soils broadened in scope, the inadequacy of earlier methods for coping became increasingly apparent. The application of ground freezing to geotechnical projects throughout the world continues to grow as significant advances have been made in ground freezing technology. Freezing is a useful and versatile technique for temporary earth support, groundwater control in difficult soil or rock strata, and the formation of subsurface containment barriers suitable for use in groundwater remediation projects.

Book Synopsis The Isothermal Compressibility of Frozen Soil and Ice to 30 Kilobars at -10°C by : Edwin J. Chamberlain
Download or read book The Isothermal Compressibility of Frozen Soil and Ice to 30 Kilobars at -10°C written by Edwin J. Chamberlain and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The isothermal compressibilities of ice and partially and fully saturated sand and silt at -10C are presented. The tests employ a piston-die device with which a uniaxial load is imposed on a lead encapsulated specimen, resulting in the hydrostatic compression of the test specimen. Pressures to 30 kbars are obtained. The compressibility of ice is as reported by P.W. Bridgman. The various phase transformations of ice I to water to ice V to ice VI to ice VIII appear as expected. It is shown that the compressibility of frozen soil can be readily predicted from the knowledge of material properties such as degree of saturation with ice, porosity, and the compressibilities of the ice and mineral components.

Book Synopsis Freezing Test for Evaluating Relative Frost Susceptibility of Various Soils by : C. W. Kaplar
Download or read book Freezing Test for Evaluating Relative Frost Susceptibility of Various Soils written by C. W. Kaplar and published by . This book was released on 1974 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report presents a description of the equipment and procedures used in the laboratory test of the relative frost susceptibility of different soils on Corps of Engineers construction projects and includes typical results of freezing tests of natural soils. The test uses a slow unidirectional freezing of a 6-in. high, remolded or undisturbed soil specimen with water available at the base (open system). The heaving rate measured during the test is used as the basis for classification of the frost susceptibility potential of the soil. This type of test, which measures heaving rate, is considered most versatile and adaptable for evaluating the effects of numerous soil parameters on frost heave. (Author).

Book Synopsis The Response of Frozen Soils to Vibratory Loads by : Henry W. Stevens
Download or read book The Response of Frozen Soils to Vibratory Loads written by Henry W. Stevens and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was conducted to provide reliable values of the stiffness and damping properties of frozen soils subjected to vibratory loads and to define the significant factors affecting these parameters. A laboratory test was conducted on prepared specimens of frozen soils wherein a right circular cylinder was subjected to steady-state sinusoidal vibration. The material was considered to be linearly viscoelastic. Analysis of test data based on one-dimensional wave propagation yielded the complex Young's modulus, the complex shear modulus, the phase velocity of wave propagation, the shear velocity, the damping property expressed as the angle representing time lag between stress and strain, an attenuation coefficient, and a complex Poisson's ratio. The frequency of vibration was varied from 500 to 10,000 Hz, and the peak dynamic stress was varied from 0.1 to 5.0 psi. Specimens were remolded or cored in-situ, frozen, and tested at temperatures of 0, +15 and +25 deg F.A few tests were conducted on identical soils nonfrozen. Tests results from a limited number of tests on selected soils indicate that the stiffness of these soils varies with the volume of ice/volume of soil ratio, and that ice is less stiff than saturated frozen soils. Frozen soils have stiffnesses up to 100 times those of identical soil nonfrozen. Depending upon the degree of ice saturation, the stiffness of non-saturated frozen soils varies from that of the saturated soils to nearly that of the nonfrozen soils. Stiffness increases with decreasing temperature but the rate is relatively low. As temperature rises and approaches the freezing point, stiffness abruptly decreases.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the international edition of the proceedings of IS-Seoul 2011, the Fifth International Symposium on Deformation Characteristics of Geomaterials, held in Seoul, South Korea, in September 2011.The book includes 7 invited lectures, as well as 158 technical papers selected from the 182 submitted. The symposium explored ideas about the complex load-deformation response in geomaterials, including laboratory methods for small and large strains; anisotropy and localization; time-dependent responses in soils; characteristics of treated, unsaturated, and natural geomaterials; applications in field methods; evaluation of field performance in geotechnical structures; and physical and numerical modeling in geomechanics. These topics were grouped under a number of main themes, including experimental investigations from very small strains to beyond failure; behavior, characterization and modeling of various geomaterials; and practical prediction and interpretation of ground response: field observation and case histories. Both the symposium and this book represent an important contribution to the exchange of advanced knowledge and ideas in geotechnical engineering and promote partnership among participants worldwide.
