Cement stabilization of poor quality national forest bedrock materials for road construction

Creator:: Huddleston, Ira J.
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Properties of geotextiles in cold regions applications

Creator:: Allen, Tony Michael
Abstract:: Geotextiles are experiencing increased use in arctic and subarctic construction in separation, reinforcement, erosion control, and drainage applications. The use of geotextiles as capillary cutoff layers to prevent frost heave has been proposed as well. In recognition of the need to investigate properties of geotextiles in cold regions applications, a...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

The role of specific surface area and related index properties in the frost susceptibility of soils

Creator:: Rieke, Ross D.
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Dynamic properties of naturally frozen ice

Creator:: Hammer, Theodore A.
Abstract:: In recognition of the need to determine dynamic properties of naturally frozen materials, a research project was conducted to measure the dynamic properties (dynamic moduli and damping ratio) of naturally frozen wedge ice samples obtained from the Fairbanks, Alaska area. Cyclic triaxial and resonant column test systems were employed to...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

The application of centrifugal modeling to determine ice forces on isolated circular structures

Creator:: Clough, Herbert F.
Abstract:: A test system was developed and used to investigate ice/structure interaction with centrifugal modeling. The test system was designed to perform two main functions: (1) create a uniform ice sheet, and (2) drive a model structure through the ice sheet at a constant speed. Both of these functions were required...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Evaluation of ocean wave-induced liquefaction in a large scale wave flume

Creator:: Thielen, David Leo
Abstract:: Ocean waves propagating over cohesionless seabed deposits produce cyclic shear stresses within the deposit. Under certain conditions these stresses may cause a progressive build-up of pore pressure. Pore pressure accumulation can result in liquefaction or a substantial decrease in the effective stress with attendant large deformations of the seabed deposit....
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Modeling solute transport by centrifugation

Creator:: Celorie, Jay A.
Abstract:: Measurement of physical and chemical solute transport properties of a soil/waste system is necessary to predict pollutant migration in soils. The adsorption component of solute transport is most often determined in the laboratory by performing column studies and batch equilibrium tests. Both of these methods suffer from disadvantages. Batch equilibrium...

Analysis of thermal fatigue distress of asphalt concrete pavements

Creator:: Jackson, N. Mike (Nathaniel Michael)
Abstract:: Thermal cracking of asphalt concrete pavements is responsible for millions of dollars in annual maintenance and rehabilitation costs in the United States and Canada. Thermal cracking is typically associated with low temperatures in northern climates and at high elevations. However, another form of thermal cracking, known as thermal fatigue cracking,...
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Selection and performance evaluation of a test method to assess thermal cracking resistance of asphalt-aggregate mixtures

Creator:: Jung, Duhwoe
Abstract:: Thermal distress in asphalt concrete pavements is a widespread problem around the world. Thermal cracking can be divided into two modes of distress: low temperature cracking and thermal fatigue cracking. Low temperature cracking results from extremely cold temperatures; thermal fatigue cracking results from daily temperature cycles. Low temperature cracking is...
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Evaluation and application of ice segregation parameters for frost heave prediction

Creator:: Ito, Yuzuru, 1958-
Abstract:: 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...
