In this study, a geothermal energy deicing system for bridge deck using pile heat exchanger was developed, and the performance of investigated under conditions snowfall. The structural response during process also analyzed. slab temperature, air inlet outlet circulating fluid thermal strain were monitored test. results show that developed in study capable accelerating snow-melting even though no pump employed system. suitable anti-icing winter. addition, effects on could be ignored process.
The thermomechanical behaviour of energy piles during heating and cooling through model tests was studied. These were carried out both with without a vertical load dry sand used. axial distribution, load-settlement the pile head, soil temperature, pressure at tip, horizontal pressure, thermal stress mobilised side shear investigated. magnitude displacement influenced by or no comparatively analysed. results show that induced in residual introduced after cycle. Horizontal also varied changes...
A full-scale test was carried out to investigate the interactions between an energy pile and four traditional piles connected same overlying reinforced beam. series of sensors installed in pile, surrounding soil, piles, beam monitor their thermal mechanical responses. The concrete were analyzed. results show that, when average temperature increased by 20°C, a notable axial stress −4.4 MPa induced at top because interaction Moreover, additional load observed with even though they not...
This study investigates the thermo-mechanical behavior of energy piles equipped with a spiral pipe configuration. The analysis is based on results full-scale pile as well three-dimensional finite element analyses. two five U-shaped pipes connected in series and parallel, characterized by same total length piping network, also analyzed numerically for comparison purposes. this work highlight that configuration are lowest trends average temperature variation thermally induced vertical stress...
Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC), functioning as a next-generation cementitious engineering material, demonstrates marked superiority over conventional in critical metrics, with its groundbreaking characteristics primarily manifested through exceptional strength and enhanced durability parameters. To address structural demands for reduced self-weight, material efficiency, simplified construction processes large-span durable structures, this study proposes retard-bonded prestressed UHPC...
Cells need to migrate through confined spaces during processes such as embryo development and cancer metastasis. However, the fundamental question of how confinement size surrounding rigidity collectively regulate migration capability cells remains unclear. Here, by utilizing maskless photolithography with a digital micromirror device (DMD), microchannel precisely controlled width wall stiffness (similar those exhibited natural tissues) is fabricated. We find that increasing confining leads...
In this study, an experimental investigation was conducted to assess the thermo-mechanical behaviour of a small-scale instrumented floating energy pile installed in normally consolidated saturated clay. The subjected five heating/cooling cycles where inlet temperature ranged from 5 45°C. interaction between and traditional adjacent pile, two piles cap were investigated. programme consisted monitoring change surrounding soil, excess pore water pressure head displacement. results show that...
This study presents a field test to investigate the thermal injection performance of full-scale energy pile for underground solar storage (USES). The tested comprises bridge foundation and spiral-shaped pipe. Numerical modeling was carried out provide complementary results. Sensitivity analyses pipe configuration operation mode on were performed based numerical modeling. results showed that 84% injected could be transferred surrounding soil by pile, total amount stored single −3.2 GJ over...
