复合地基加固路堤的稳定性分析

通过对复合地基加固路堤稳定性的极限平衡法和有限单元法的计算结果进行对比分析,揭示出当路堤的稳定性由复合地基决定时,极限平衡法和有限单元法的计算结果存在较大差异。应用岩土有限元软件Plaxis中的强度折减法可得到合理的路堤稳定性分析结果。对复合地基中桩体破坏模式的分析认为,桩体发生非剪断破坏之外的弯曲、转动、拉伸等破坏模式是极限平衡法与有限单元法计算结果产生差异的根本原因。由此进一步指出,当处理存在土与结构物相互作用的边坡稳定问题时,极限平衡法的分析结果可能会高估了边坡的稳定性,应慎重判别其合理性。     

Medium and small embankment dams on permafrost: A discussion of current concepts

This article discusses the current concepts of dam design and construction in permafrost regions. It is demonstrated that embankment dams often change their state from frozen to thawed and back during the operation period. It is shown that these transitions are not always attributable to observed climate warming. Where geotechnical, hydrogeological, and permafrost conditions are complicated, proper performance of embankment dams can only be provided by adhering to a selected thermal design for, as an example, a frozen state.

Use of fly ash with no water consumption for cold regions transportation infrastructure

The construction period in cold regions is very short due to problems related to excavation and use of frozen soils in embankment construction, which leads to excessive deformations upon thawing. Also, handling of compaction water is critical due to freezing temperatures. Coalburning thermal power plants are very common in cold regions to supply electricity. The inorganic part of the pulverized coal after burning produces fly ash, which is available in large volumes. Due to excavation difficulties and the poor engineering behavior of frozen soils in cold regions, the utilization of fly ash when it is readily available must be promoted. Any construction technique which utilizes alternative materials like fly ash and minimizes water consumption has a potential to extend the short construction season and even allow service and maintenance during extreme weather conditions. This paper presents two potential techniques to solve the moisture affinity of silt-sized materials like fly ash. One technique involves in-plant production of fly ash pellets using cold-bonding pelletization to manufacture aggregates of up to 40,000-μm diameter from 15- to 60-μm-diameter fly ash grains. Large disc pelletizers have annual production capacities of up to one million ton at a reasonable cost. The product has adequate strength for embankment construction even when no water is used and no compaction is applied. The second technique is an in situ mixing technique which uses snow instead of compaction water for fly ash. The snow is the main element in this technique to compact the embankment. Water is needed for the hydration reactions to form cementitious minerals in fly ash. The slower the hydration reaction, the greater the crystal growth of cementitious minerals. In the proposed technique, in situ snow is mixed with fly ash and is compacted on-site. The temperature increase due to the hydration reaction of fly ash upon contact with snow crystals provides water for continued long-term hydration, which results in high strength, a high void ratio, light weight, and high thermal insulation capability. The presented techniques have the potential to extend the short construction season in cold regions and will provide fill material, decreasing the need for excavation. Both techniques are well documented under laboratory conditions, the research results have been published, and the techniques are ready for field trials to assess implementability.

塔里木河中游输水堤防的修建对地下水化学特征的影响

通过对塔里木河中游输水堤防修建后,沙子河口、乌斯满和阿其河口三个断面地下水化学特征自2001—2003年的时空变化的监测与分析,初步揭示了在输水堤防影响下地下水化学特征变化的初步规律,结果表明：在空间上,沙子河口断面地下水化学变化规律完全被颠倒过来,乌斯满断面,地下水化学变化规律受输水堤防的影响不十分明显,但地表积盐严重,阿其河口断面,则呈现复杂的变化;在时间上,丰枯期地下水化学特征的正常变化规律在沙子河口被彻底改变,在乌斯满和阿其河口呈现出复杂变化。由于地下水循环具有潜在性和迟滞性,要彻底揭示在输水堤防影响下地下水化学特征时空变化的规律,需要进一步跟踪监测研究。     

Nitrogen and carbon dioxide occurrence in UK coal seams

Conclusions Some bituminous coals, mostly of high volatile rank, sampled from various coalfields contained on average 0.5 m³ t^–1 nitrogen and 0.13 m³ t^–1.Nitrogen is released more readily than methane during coal winning but the volumes of nitrogen released are small compared with ventilation quantities and are only likely to be of significance for detailed oxygen deficiency studies.

Analytical modeling on consolidation of stiffened deep mixed column-reinforced soft soil under embankment

Stiffened deep mixed (SDM) column is a new ground improvement technique to improve soft soil, which can be used to increase bearing capacity, reduce deformation, and enhance stability of soft soil. This technique has been successfully adopted to support the highway and railway embankments over soft soils in China and other countries. However, there have been limited investigations on its consolidation under embankment loading. This paper developed an analytical solution for the consolidation of embankment over soft soil with SDM column in which core pile is equal to or shorter than outer DM column. The consolidation problem was simplified as a consolidation of composite soil considering the load shear effect of core pile. The developed solution was verified by a comparison with the results computed by three-dimensional (3-D) finite element analysis. A parametric study based on the derived solution was conducted to investigate influence factors—length of core pile, diameter of core pile, diameter of SDM column, modulus of DM column, and permeability coefficient of DM column—on the consolidation behavior of SDM column-supported embankment over soft soil. The developed solution was applied to a case history of SDM column-supported embankment, and a good agreement was found between the predictions and the field measurements.     

低矮路堤下膨胀土地基渗流与变形耦合研究

二维渗流与变形耦合控制方程是基于流体质量守恒、Darcy定律及膨胀土弹性本构方程得出的。结合云桂高速铁路低矮路堤下膨胀土地基现场浸水试验,并采用考虑耦合和不考虑耦合两种数值模拟方法,分析了低矮路堤下膨胀土地基的膨胀变形特性。研究结果表明,耦合情况下地基表面膨胀变形呈双曲线变化,非耦合情况下地基表面膨胀变形随时间的增加而逐渐增大,对同一时间而言,未考虑耦合效应数值模拟得到的膨胀变形落后于考虑耦合影响的膨胀变形;耦合与非耦合情况下地基的相对膨胀率沿深度方向呈衰减变化。数值计算结果与现场试验结果比较表明,不考虑耦合影响的数值模拟方法难以描述人工浸水条件下膨胀土地基的膨胀变形规律,而考虑耦合影响的数值模拟方法与现场实测值吻合较好。
