Peat is known as soft soil with low shear strength and high compressibility. Electrokinetic injection technique is being used by applying a direct electrical potential across the soil specimens to improve physicochemical characteristics of the peat. Such applications cause electrochemical effects on the soil, leading to changes in the soil’s chemical, physical, and mechanical properties. This paper presents the results of the undrained shear strength, pH, water content across the electrokinetic box after injecting the cationic grouts. Four cationic grouts namely; calcium chloride, calcium oxide, Aluminum hydroxide, and sodium silicates were selected as grout. The microstructures of the stabilized peats were investigated by scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer analysis. The result showed that the cationic stabilizer injected by the electrokinetic technique could significantly increase the peat soil’s shear strength. Furthermore, the result showed that the effect of calcium oxide was the highest on the shear strength of peat due to its physico-chemical properties. The shear strength, pH and moisture content of peats across the electrokinetic box also altered depending on the used electrolytes and time. 相似文献

Uncertainty in the predicted ultimate pullout strength of soil nails can be significant due to the complexity of nail–soil interactions, inherent variability in soil properties and the effects of nail installation. The paper first presents a statistical evaluation of the accuracy of ultimate bond strength of soil nails using the effective stress method (ESM) equation that has been adopted in Hong Kong. A total of 113 ultimate nail capacity data points from field pullout tests were collected from the literature and used to estimate the accuracy of the current ESM. Based on the available data, the current ESM default pullout model is found to be excessively conservative (on average) by at least a factor of three. The spread in prediction accuracy measured by the coefficient of variation (COV) of bias is in the range of 36–43 % after removing anomalous test data. Here, bias is the ratio of measured to predicted pullout load capacity. In addition, the accuracy of the current ESM equation for prediction of nail bond strength is shown to be dependent on the magnitude of predicted ultimate bond strength and magnitude of nominal vertical effective stress which is undesirable. The paper examines four candidate-modified bond strength equations with empirical coefficients that have been back-fitted to measured bond strengths to improve the overall accuracy of the equation and to reduce or remove the undesirable dependencies noted above. One equation with an empirically corrected stress-dependent term is judged to be the best candidate model based on the mean of bias values, spread (COV) of bias values, lack of dependencies and simplicity. Finally, the relative contributions of random variability in soil shear strength to measurement bias in bond strength (prediction accuracy) for each soil type are computed for the best bond strength model. Analysis of the contribution of soil shear strength to prediction accuracy showed that the combination of variability due to factors other than soil shear strength was greater than the variability in soil shear strength alone, where the latter is defined by the soil secant friction coefficient. 相似文献

Grass buffer strips impact the hydrology of flow and consequently the fate of sediment. A complex process‐based model is developed to predict flow characteristics as well as sediment deposition and transport upstream, and within grass strips. The model is capable of estimating the proportion and amount of different sediment particle size classes in the outflow. The modified Green–Ampt equation was used to simulate infiltration. Gradually varied flow and kinematic wave approximation were used to model flow characteristics upstream and within grass strips. The GUEST model approach has been modified in order to use its basic approaches in sediment transport module in grass strips. Model predictions agree well with the results of two sets of controlled experiments. The bias, coefficient of model efficiency and the root mean squared error of the modelled efficiency of grass strips in reducing sediment concentration were 0.93–0.99, 0.58–0.99 and 8.9–12.7, respectively. The sensitivity analysis showed that the initial soil moisture and flow rate are the most sensitive parameters in predicting runoff loss. Increasing the slope steepness and flow rate dramatically decreases the efficiency of grass strips in reducing sediment concentration and mass. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Major accidents are low-frequency, high-consequence accidents which are not well supported by conventional statistical methods due to the scarcity of directly relevant data. Modeling and decomposition techniques such as event tree have been proved as robust alternatives as they facilitate incorporation of partially relevant near accident data–accident precursor data—in probability estimation and risk analysis of major accidents. In this study, we developed a methodology based on event tree and hierarchical Bayesian analysis to establish informative distributions for offshore blowouts using data of near accidents, such as kicks, leaks, and failure of blowout preventers collected from a variety of offshore drilling rigs. These informative distributions can be used as predictive tools to estimate relevant failure probabilities in the future. Further, having a set of near accident data of a drilling rig of interest, the informative distributions can be updated to render case-specific posterior distributions which are of great importance in quantitative risk analysis. To cope with uncertainties, we implemented the methodology in a Markov Chain Monte Carlo framework and applied it to risk assessment of offshore blowouts in the Gulf of Mexico. 相似文献

Soil salt accumulation is a widespread problem leading to diminished crop yield and threatening food security in many regions of the world. The soil salinization problem is particularly acute in areas that lack adequate soil water drainage and where a saline shallow water table (WT) is present. In this study, we present laboratory-scale column experiments, extending over a period of more than 400 days that focus on the processes contributing to soil salinization. We specifically examine the combined impact of soil compaction, surface water application model and water quality on salt dynamics in the presence of a saline shallow WT. The soil columns (60 cm height and 16 cm diameter) were packed with an agricultural soil with bulk densities of 1.15 and 1.34 g/cm−3 for uncompacted and compacted layers, respectively, and automatically monitored for water content, salinity and pressure. Two surface water compositions are considered: fresh (deionized, DI) and saline water (~3.4 mS/cm). To assess the sensitivity of compaction on salt dynamics, the experiments were numerically modelled with the HYDRUS-1D computer program. The results show that the saline WT led to rapid salinization of the soil column due to capillarity, with the salinity reaching levels much higher than that at the WT. However, compaction layer provided a barrier that limited the downwards moisture percolation and solute transport. Furthermore, the numerical simulations showed that the application of freshwater can temporarily reverse the accumulation of salts in agricultural soils. This irrigation strategy can help, in the short-term, alleviate soil salinization problem. The soil hydraulic properties, WT depth, water quality, evaporation demand and the availability of freshwater all play a role in the practicability of such short-term solutions. The presence of a saline shallow WT would, however, rapidly reverse these temporary measures, leading to the recurrence of topsoil salinization. 相似文献

ABSTRACTThis study develops a mathematical model of buried pipelines subjected to surface blast loading based on the theory of beam on elastic foundation. The Fourier transform, a mathematical formula that converts the time domain of the problem to the frequency domain, was used in order to solve a fourth-order non-homogeneous partial differential equation. Transforming the solution back to the time domain, the blast-induced Peak Particle Velocity (PPV) of the pipeline can be calculated. In addition to the mathematical model, a three-dimensional finite element model has been established, thereby drawing a comparison between analytical and numerical results. It can be concluded that the analytically calculated PPV values are found to be higher than the corresponding numerical values. Lastly, the safe distance from the pipeline to blast source and the maximum allowable ANFO explosive weight for two types of rock have been presented in the form of graphs by imposing a limit of 50 mm/s for PPV. This comparative study has investigated the effect of road-cut excavation blasting on pipelines buried under only two types of rock mass. However, it can be used for different types of rock and explosives, mainly thanks to the comprehensiveness of the analytical solution. 相似文献
