Assessing the State of Structural Foundations in Permafrost Regions by Means of Acoustic Testing
About 60% of the territory of the Russian Federation is covered by permafrost. Additionally, a large share of the country’s mineral and hydrocarbon deposits are located in the Arctic. Climate change that has been happening over the past few decades has had a serious impact on the conditions in which...
