On quasi-static solutions for buried pipes in permafrost
A review of the existing quasi-static methods of analysis used for predicting the thaw bulb around a buried pipe in permafrost has been made. The quasi-static solutions are compared with the results obtained by numerical techniques so that the accuracy of the approximate method can be examined. Cons...

| Summary: | A review of the existing quasi-static methods of analysis used for predicting the thaw bulb around a buried pipe in permafrost has been made. The quasi-static solutions are compared with the results obtained by numerical techniques so that the accuracy of the approximate method can be examined. Consequently, a modification to the approximate method is suggested to improve its applicability to preliminary engineering design. |
