Numerical Analysis of Frost Heave and Thaw Settlement for Pipeline Buried in Frost-Susceptible Soil via Thermosiphons
Seasonal frost or permafrost soils may encounter frost heave or thaw settlement resulting from atmospheric temperature changes and/or heat emanating from the resource-carrying pipeline. Notably, these soil movements can damage the pipeline. Thus, various ground stabilization methods have been develo...
