To this end, this paper conducts dynamic analysis of a vehicle-track coupled system accounting for the effect of frost heave deformation. Initially, the finite element method is used to obtain the relationship between rail irregularity and frost heave deformation. Then, a vehicle-track vertically coupled dynamics model is established, and its accuracy is validated by the measured data, published results and existing model. The time-domain dynamic responses of a vehicle-track coupled system under typical frost heave are analyzed. Afterwards, parametric analysis of frost heave deformation is conducted. Finally, the control threshold of frost heave is proposed from aspects of vehicle running safety, comfort, and track deformation. Numerical results indicate that the allowable amplitude of frost heave should be respectively restricted to 5, 20, and 25 mm for frost heave wavelengths less than 10 m, between 10 and 15 m, and greater than 15 m.

While the spatial location of glide release areas is extremely consistent, the onset of glide avalanche release is notoriously difficult to forecast, and their destructive potential can be immense. Thus, the timing and dynamics of glide avalanches is an important area of study. To better understand these processes, and to improve assessments of risk to transportation corridors and infrastructure, event documentation is key. Here, we survey a large glide avalanche event along the Going-to-the-Sun Road in Glacier National Park, Montana, USA, during road opening operations in the spring of 2022. Using three sets of terrestrial lidar data (pre-event, post-event, and snow-off), we quantified key aspects of the avalanche and created powerful visualizations for analysis. Further, we evaluated meteorological data from automated weather stations between the onset of glide cracking and avalanche release. Last, we synthesized lidar data with a numerical dynamics model to replicate the event in a simulated environment. Using the tuned model, we determined the critical mean snow depth in the release area necessary for an avalanche to reach the road (4.2 m). Our method may be of particular use for glide avalanches, which tend to release in roughly the same place and time each year at a known interface. This could make the calculated critical depths more consistently reliable and preclude the need for additional tuning in dynamics models. As 1) lidar technology continues to improve and reduce in cost, 2) transportation corridors continue to extend into avalanche terrain, and 3) glide avalanches potentially become increasingly frequent, the synthesis outlined here provides a valuable tool for operational forecasters considering infrastructure threatened by glide events.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10522,"journal":{"name":"Cold Regions Science and Technology","volume":"231 ","pages":"Article 104412"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-12-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143154069","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Predicting such events using supervised classification machine learning models suffers from the class imbalance problem. The number of non-avalanche days exceed the number of avalanche days, and such data distribution skewness interferes with the construction of decision boundaries to support the decision-making procedure. This paper analyses class imbalance from the perspective of avalanche prediction by involving multiple classification approaches, three oversampling and two undersampling techniques, and cost-sensitive approaches. The supervised approaches aimed to predict days with and without avalanches as binary classification. The study was conducted using past 25 seasons of snow and meteorological parameters recorded for two climatologically diverse avalanche prone regions of Indian Himalayas with different levels of class imbalance. The paper also proposes more extensive use of evaluation metrics like balanced accuracy, geometric mean, Probability of Detection (POD) and Peirce Skill Score (PSS) that are pertinent to imbalanced class domains like avalanche forecasting. Extensive empirical experiments and evaluations amply demonstrate that these class balancing techniques lead to significant improvements in the performance of avalanche forecasting models for both regions, albeit with some variations. The POD values improved to 0.83 for Random Forest classifier, 0.65 for Support Vector Machine classifier and 0.75 for Logistic Regression classifier; PSS values also improved to 0.53, 0.47 and 0.5 for Random Forest, Support Vector Machine, and Logistic Regression classifiers, respectively. These findings are complemented by theoretical insights on the proposed solutions to the class imbalance. Our results suggest that the classification based avalanche forecasting models trained using proposed approaches can serve as valuable supplementary decision support tool for avalanche forecasters.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10522,"journal":{"name":"Cold Regions Science and Technology","volume":"231 ","pages":"Article 104411"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143155033","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These events are defined by their relevant annual exceedance probability levels. Probabilistic methods are often used to obtain a proper characterization of the ice actions from which representative ice actions can be inferred. In this paper, we consider ice actions caused by first-year ice ridges. Ridge action depends on a large number of input parameters. Important correlations between the parameters add to the complexity of ridge action and need to be included in probabilistic assessments to obtain reliable results. Data for establishing input probability distributions are often incomplete, biased, or completely non-existent. To solve this problem, it is common engineering practice to combine data from locations other than the location of interest and make ad hoc extrapolations and assumptions. This often leads to overly conservative estimates of representative ice ridge actions. We propose a framework for Monte Carlo simulation of the first-year ice ridge actions. The goal is to establish a method for which the need of input data is at a minimum. The only needed input data in our simulation is the statistics of the annual maximum level ice thickness and statistics related to ice being present or not. Based on correlations and findings from our previous studies, we are able to simulate other input parameters such as ridge keel draft, ridge frequency and consolidated layer thickness. In this paper, we also discuss the problem of defining the probability distribution for the ice strength coefficient C<sub>R</sub> in the context of Monte Carlo simulations. Our approach is dependent on our previous research that is based on data from the Beaufort Sea. Without an appropriate calibration of the correlations between the parameters, we cannot be certain if the simulation can be extended to other locations by simply adjusting the input maximum annual level ice statistics. Nevertheless, we believe that our approach can be used as a tool for preliminary probabilistic assessment of ridge action. Our approach offers good flexibility, and we believe that with suitable data it can be calibrated for other geographical locations and structure types.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10522,"journal":{"name":"Cold Regions Science and Technology","volume":"231 ","pages":"Article 104410"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143154068","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Understanding the dynamic mechanical response, damage, and failure characteristics of moraine soil is crucial for accurately predicting the impact of blasting. Therefore, this study utilizes the Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) equipment to conduct impact tests on moraine soil under different temperatures and strain rates. Additionally, a model for predicting the dynamic mechanical response of frozen moraine soil has been proposed based on peridynamic theory, decohesion damage theory, and the ZWT model, in which the debonding damage and the adiabatic temperature rise are considered. This model focuses on considering the bonds between different substances within frozen moraine soil.

Within this, the modeling of ice-cemented bonds contributes to a deeper understanding of the crack propagation characteristics in frozen moraine soil.

Wetting-modified silica (SiO<sub>2</sub>) nanoparticles, treated with silane coupling agent KH570, were used to construct a micro-nano multilayer structure. To further enhance hydrophobicity, a reentrant porous micro-skeleton was formed through the phase separation of the PDMS mixture. By optimizing the chemical composition of the PDMS/KH570@SiO<sub>2</sub> suspension, we achieved an exceptional superhydrophobic surface on the porous cement mortar. The performance of this surface was rigorously evaluated, including assessments of mechanical durability, self-cleaning behavior, anti-icing and de-icing properties, and F-T resistance. The results demonstrate that the new superhydrophobic surface delays the water droplet freezing time by approximately 23 times and improves the F-T resistance of cement mortar by at least 25 % compared to control samples.
