Experimental study on workability and permeability of sandy soils conditioned with thickened foam

Water spewing and muck plugging often occur during earth pressure balance (EPB) shield machines tunnelling in water-rich sandy strata, even though the conventional foam has been employed to condition sandy soils. In this study, a novel thickened foaming agent suitable for EPB shield tunnelling in water-rich sandy strata is developed. In...

焊接残余应力对钢桥面疲劳性能的影响与处理措施

In order to improve the fatigue resistance of orthotropic steel decks (OSDs), the steel bridge deck was annealed to reduce the welding residual stress of key welds. This work at first presented a systematical review and discussion over the distribution pattern of welding residual stress in OSDs, in accordance with a conceptual analysis...
