The structure of a segmental joint with a load-transferring gasket is complicated and exhibits piecewise and nonlinear deformation characteristics under loads. Joint stiffness largely depends on the properties of the concrete and load-transferring gasket, which are the main components of the joint. A reasonable consideration of their influence is one way to predict the failure process of the …
This paper reports on the first large-scale project in the U.S. for utilizing water from abandoned mines for geothermal applications. This project proved the high potential of turning water in deep abandoned mines into a renewable energy resource, which is safer, greener, and more abundant than other conventional low-enthalpy geothermal applications. In this paper, a real demonstration project …

Nowadays the problem of soil loss during construction of shield driving has attracted much attention, especially in sandy silt. Moreover, it is easy to cause ground subsidence and destruction of surrounding environment because of the soil’s sensitivity and disturbing characteristic. Factually, existing tunnel has high control standards for deformation as well as its deformation occurs easil…
