The settlement index (Is), risk zonation index (Ir), and geohazard index (Ia) models were selected to map thaw settlement susceptibility, and their results were combined to construct a comprehensive index (Ic) model using a majority vote criterion. Based on 12 conditioning factors related to topography, soil, vegetation, and climate, susceptibility studies using artificial neural network (ANN), K-nearest neighbor (KNN), support vector machine (SVM), and random forest (RF) models were conducted. The results indicate that although the Ic model improves the accuracies of the Is, Ir and Ia models, it remains limited, with 75.06% of thaw settlements occurring in low and moderate susceptibility areas. Conversely, the ML models demonstrated superior accuracy, with the RF model performing the best, which remained only 13.87% of thaw settlements in low to moderate susceptibility regions, effectively pinpointing the Qiangtang Plateau (QP) and Three Rivers Source (TRS) region as high susceptibility areas. Notably, the Budongquan-Beiluhe sections of the Qinghai-Tibet Highway (QTH) and Qinghai-Tibet Railway (QTR) were identified as potential high-risk regions for thaw settlement.

Quantifying this variability may give better estimates of the ice properties and their interrelation. Additionally, correlating in situ ice strength measurements and ice properties, including porosity, may improve understanding of the factors influencing ice strength. This paper presents measurements of sea-ice properties and strength on first- and second-year sea ice during the GoNorth expedition to the Arctic Ocean in October 2022. In situ borehole indentation measurements were co-located with measurements of physical properties, and the meter-scale variability of the physical properties and strength was investigated. Bulk density values found from hydrostatic weighing were 911 ± 5 kg m<sup>−3</sup> for first-year and 904 ± 5 kg m<sup>−3</sup> for second-year ice, with significantly less uncertainty than density values from the mass/volume method or from freeboard/draft measurements. The second-year ice was relatively saline, with a mean bulk salinity of 3.1 ± 0.5, and the ice was desalinated in the upper and lower 0.2 m. The bulk gas fraction in the second-year ice was 2.5 ± 0.5 %, similar to the first-year ice gas fraction of 2.8 ± 0.5 %. Gas fractions up to 6.5 % were observed in the second-year ice without any obvious correlation with the brine fraction. The second-year ice had larger spatial variability in thickness, porosity, grain structure, and ice strength compared to the first-year ice. Variability in bulk density and gas fraction were similar for first- and second-year ice, as the larger variability was mostly seen below the upper 0.4 m of the second-year ice. The borehole strength was 26.0 ± 4.4 MPa for first-year and 41.0 ± 12.1 MPa for second-year ice.

Bridge piers will be subjected to high static ice pressure during the conversion of water to ice, which may cause deformation or even failure of piers. To investigate the spatial and temporal distribution of static ice pressure, this study carried out a two-year field observation experiment on the ice sheet of the Xilamulun Reservoir in Inner Monggol, China. A novel ice pressure panel was designed to measure static ice pressure in this work. Meanwhile, the air temperature, ice temperature, and ice thickness were recorded to analyze the influencing factors of static ice pressure. The results show that the new ice pressure panel provided an accurate measurement of the varying ice pressure and its vertical distribution within the ice sheet. The ice thickness growth factor was calculated based on the Freezing Ice Degree Day model, and snowfall was the critical parameter affecting the ice thickness growth factor. The new formulas for calculating the temperature distribution within the ice sheet were presented, in which critical parameters were determined based on measured data. The calculated ice pressures matched well with the observed values, which indicates the validity of the presented formulas. The maximum ice pressure on piers occurred at 1/3 to 1/2 of the ice thickness below the ice surface and gradually moved downward as the ice thickness increased. Moreover, the ice pressure is not only affected by the air temperature but also by the cracking state of the ice sheet, constraints, sunshine time, etc. This study can be used to predict ice sheet growth, ice pressure, and ice temperature distribution and contribute to the ice-resistant design of bridge piers in cold region reservoirs.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10522,"journal":{"name":"Cold Regions Science and Technology","volume":"229 ","pages":"Article 104352"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142571540","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}

Icephobic surfaces are currently being developed to reduce winter-related impacts. Creating such surfaces requires considering various factors, including reducing and preventing ice accumulation, significantly decreasing ice adhesion, and/or delaying water solidification. Although established methods such as centrifugal force and push-off tests exist for measuring ice adhesion, the results may not always correlate or offer the needed information for specific applications. To better assess icephobic properties, we have developed a novel device called the human motion–inspired automated apparatus (HMA) that mimics manual de-icing performed by humans in a scraping mode. The primary objective of the HMA is to emulate human removal of ice-covered surfaces, providing a more realistic evaluation of icephobic properties according to the ease of ice removal. This apparatus aims to revolutionize icephobic material assessment by offering improved accuracy, repeatability, and versatility in testing. We developed a unique procedure using low icing conditions, which are challenging to evaluate using conventional methods, and assessed four surfaces: aluminum as a reference, an epoxy-based hydrophilic coating, a hydrophobic silicone elastomer coating, and a hydrophobic epoxy–silicone coating. Our HMA characterizes surfaces according to several crucial parameters, including the normal force required to initiate ice scraping removal, the maximum force achieved, the angle of attack, and the equivalent force, all consistent with validation tests conducted by humans. Among the evaluated surfaces, the silicone coating required the lowest normal force, and the epoxy–silicone coating had the lowest maximum and equivalent forces. Our HMA results align well with validation tests conducted by humans.

To address this, this study developed a hybrid machine learning model (RF-LSTM-XGBoost) for permafrost table prediction. By analyzing climate change and ground temperature data from various positions and depths along the subgrade in the Tuotuo River section of the Qinghai-Xizang Highway, the Spearman correlation coefficient method was initially used to determine the important influencing factors. Random Forest (RF), Long Short-Term Memory Neural Network (LSTM), and Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) models were used to predict the artificial permafrost table, and grid search and cross-validation methods were employed to optimize the hyperparameters of each model. A linear weighted combination method based on the minimum cumulative absolute error was utilized to merge the models, and its performance was compared with the individual RF, LSTM, and XGBoost models. Subsequently, the feature importance of the variables in the machine learning model was analyzed. The results indicated a strong correlation between artificial permafrost table changes and factors such as daily average atmospheric temperature, subgrade surface ground temperature, and subgrade surface ground heat flux during the freezing-thawing cycle. The combined model highlighted daily atmospheric temperature as the most influential predictor, followed by ground heat flux, with the surface ground temperature being less impactful.

However, only recently has it been posed as a promising method for modeling the densification of snow into glacial ice, where the conventional model is empirical or semi-empirical. Here, we explore the applicability of a standard one-dimensional two-phase continuum framework for modeling snow compaction through theoretical and laboratory methods by analyzing and simplifying theory, and then experimentally constraining the model coefficient. We find in our theory analysis that the limit of slow compaction is reached such that air evacuation during the compaction process does not impede the deformation of ice grains. Model-data comparisons are performed using data from a series of uniaxial compression experiments of snow samples under a range of compaction rates (1 × 10<sup>−6</sup> to 3 × 10<sup>−5</sup> m s<sup>−1</sup>) and densities (250 to 450 kg m<sup>−3</sup>) at −10° and –20 °C, which show good measures of fit (<span><math><msup><mi>r</mi><mn>2</mn></msup></math></span>&gt;0.996). By defining a linear effective pressure function, we then constrain the model parameter by tuning against the data. While our model follows proper simplification of theory, the temperature and microstructural dependence are determined exclusively by the model parameter in a rheological formulation with the strain rate, and much scatter still exists. Within the selected range of compaction rates and densities, our results indicate that a 1-D two-phase model with a continuum framework alone does not likely capture important processes involved in the compaction process.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10522,"journal":{"name":"Cold Regions Science and Technology","volume":"229 ","pages":"Article 104336"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142531386","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}
