This book was released on 1993 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The success of civil engineering construction in cold regions often depends on the assessment of the potential for frost heave. Over the past two decades two models have been presented to the engineering community to identify the frost heave potential, namely: (1) the segregation potential (SP), and (2) the discrete ice lens (DIL) models. These models are based on ice segregation parameters which can be obtained from simple laboratory freezing tests. However, the reliability of the ice segregation parameters obtained from the laboratory freezing tests is still in question. In recognition of the need to improve the reliability of the measurement of ice segregation parameters in a frost heave test, a study was conducted to: (1) investigate several improvements in the step freezing test used to measure ice segregation parameters, (2) examine several approximations used to interpret the laboratory step freezing test results, (3) demonstrate the compatibility of the SP and DIL parameters, (4) propose a method to obtain reliable ice segregation parameters, and (5) demonstrate the applicability of the DIL model to address field frost heave problems. The results of the study indicated: (1) the accuracy of measured ice segregation parameters may be improved if step freezing tests are conducted under shallower temperature gradients and the water intake velocity is accurately and continuously monitored, (2) inappropriate approximations may produce a significant error in the measurement of ice segregation parameters, (3) SP may be defined either by the ratios of the (i) heave velocity/1.09 to the overall temperature gradient of the frozen soil, or (ii) water intake velocity to the temperature gradient of the frozen fringe, (4) the SP and DIL ice segregation parameters are compatible, and (5) the reliability of both models is improved through the demonstration of the compatibility of the ice segregation parameters. The application of the frost heave prediction models was studied based on ice segregation parameters determined with the improved laboratory procedure. A practical method to predict the influence of the groundwater level using the DIL ice segregation parameters was proposed. A probabilistic approach for the DIL frost heave model was developed.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1 957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all con cerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an interna tional publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Cor poration of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 32 (thesis year 1987) a total of 12,483 theses titles from 22 Canadian and 176 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 32 reports theses submitted in 1987, on occasion, certain univer sities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Basic frost heave data obtained from various types of laboratory freezing tests, using computerized ramp temperature generation and temperature control at both warm and cold ends of a soil specimen, are analyzed to determine the segregation potential. Automatic volume change measurements provide fair values of cumulative water intake, but not accurate water intake rates. A method based on accurate measurements of total heave, taking into account the amount of heave from in-situ freezing of pore-water, yields relevant freezing characteristics of soils. Precise and automatic acquisition of temperature measurements and of total heave during an open-system freezing test enables accurate definition of the segregation potential, the suction at the frozen-unfrozen interface and the rate of cooling of the frozen fringe, immediately after testing. Examples of freezing test results are given to emphasize the influence of various factors such as the temperature at the segregation-freezing front, the soils porosity, and the unfrozen water content on the segregation potential of freezing soils.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The desire to understand the mechanics of elastic and plastic solids, new materials and the stability, reliability and dynamic behaviour of structures and their components under extreme environmental conditions has dominated research in structural engineering for many decades. Advances in these areas have revolutionized design methods, codes of practice, and the teaching of structural engineers. In this volume an international body of leading authorities presents some forty papers on current research directions in the specific areas of solid mechanics, structural computation, modern materials and their application, buckling and instability, design of structural systems and components, reliability, seismic analysis, and engineering education. They were presented at a symposium held July 10-12, 1994, at the University of Waterloo, Canada, to honour Professor Archibald Norbert Sherbourne who recently retired from a long and active career of teaching, research and academic administration at this University. The themes of the work contained within this volume reflect Professor Sherbourne's own research interests and will be of interest to both academics and practicing structural engineers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essential guide to improving preliminary geotechnical analysis and design from limited data Soil Properties and their Correlations, Second Edition provides a summary of commonly-used soil engineering properties and gives a wide range of correlations between the various properties, presented in the context of how they will be used in geotechnical design. The book is divided into 11 chapters: Commonly-measured properties; Grading and plasticity; Density; Permeability, Consolidation and settlement; Shear strength; California bearing ratio; Shrinkage and swelling characteristics; Frost susceptibility; Susceptibility to combustion; and Soil-structure interfaces. In addition, there are two appendices: Soil classification systems; and Sampling methods. This new, more comprehensive, edition provides material that would be of practical assistance to those faced with the problem of having to estimate soil behaviour from little or no laboratory test data. Key features: Soil properties explained in practical terms. A large number of correlations between different soil properties. A valuable aid for assessing design values of properties. Clear statements on practical limitations and accuracy. An invaluable source of reference for experienced professionals working on geotechnical design, it will also give students and early-career engineers an in-depth appreciation of the appropriate use of each property and the pitfalls to avoid.
