The damage mechanism of loessial soils was studied by the statistical theory.Based on the characteristics strength of loessial soils micro-unit with Weibull distribution, and parameters that described by distribution variable of Drucker-Prager creterion are used, loessial soils damage constitutive model considering damage threshold is established to reflect the full process of loessial soils failure.

Banqiao school building had to be demolished for rebuilding because of severe damage induced by liquefaction following the 2008 Wenchuan Ms 8.0 Earthquake. The mechanism of the building damage and the characteristics of liquefied soils were investigated by trench, borehole drilling, and Dynamic Penetration Test. The detailed field investigation and in-situ tests show that: (1) The Banqiao school building suffered more severe damages than its surrounding buildings from the liquefaction rather than inertia force of shaking during the earthquake; (2) The subsurface liquefied soils are gravelly so

This paper presents the results of a comprehensive experimental program for investigating the influence of mechanical damage on the load-displacement behavior of geogrids. Unconfined tension tests, pullout and direct shear tests were carried out on intact and damaged specimens. Natural or artificial damages were produced either by imposing heavy compaction procedures in the laboratory or by simply cutting one or more geogrid elements. It is concluded that natural damage in the geogrid may be more pronounced when aggressive compaction methods are used with coarse grained soils. Fine grained soi

Training simulators are valuable tools in education of forest machine operators. One important part of the education is to learn about damages occurring due to the forest machines and how they can be avoided. Two types of damages are especially severe, soil compaction and formation of wheel ruts. Compaction reduces the amount of water and nutrients in the soil, and impedes root growth. Furthermore, water is gathered in wheel ruts, leading to transport of organic materia and heavy metals into water courses. These damages can be avoided through planning of the harvesting activities with respect

Expansive soils have damage light structures due to movement of soil which was a common problem all around the world. Soils exhibiting expansive properties were common throughout Australia. The damage to light structures founded on expansive soils in Victoria occurred mainly in properties built on quaternary basaltic clays and Tertiary to Ordovician clays. A review of existing literature in the area of expansive soils showed a lack of a thorough scientific diagnostic of the damage to light structures founded on expansive soils.

Expansive soils are treated with anhydrous or hydrated lime.

Predicting the precipitation of these minerals is a complex problem related not only to soil composition but also construction methods, availability of water, ion migration, and whether the expansive mineral growth can be accommodated by the void structure in the surrounding soil.

High sulfate bearing ground waters can also cause expansive degradation of the cement mortar coating exposing the prestressed wires to corrosive conditions.

However, the presence of chlorides in entrained water also can lead to pitting corrosion damage.

Abstract:
Abstract Oil-and gas- pipelines and processing equipment are usually attacked by different microorganisms that can result with time in damage of the equipment leading to serious technological incidences and environmental contamination. The direction and speed of the processes responsible for bio-damages and bio-corrosion are determined by vital activity of microorganisms. Namely bio-films presenting complex associations of the microorganisms and their metabolites are among the main reasons providing such incidences. From other side, bio-films can be protective agents against corrosion as well.

Abstract:
Abstract In this study, the influence of soil parameters on coating and metallic substrate damage evolution has been characterized by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Intact and defective coating conditions have been simulated to study the damage transformation of a coal tar coating of a pipeline both in the real soil environment and in an NS4 soil simulation solution. Quantitative estimation of coating on a steel X52 pipe under cathodic protection (CP) conditions has been performed by using the transmission line model (TLM). The results show that a compact soil layer can be forme

Framework development for rapid assessment and economic valuation of feral swine damage to wetland terrain : a pilot study at US Army Corps of Engineers–Somerville Lake, Texas.

Abstract:
The increased spread and presence of feral swine on sensitive natural resources landscapes like wetlands has become a considerable concern on lands managed by the US Army Corps of Engineers. In August 2021 a pilot study was carried out at Somerville Lake, Texas, as the first step in a three-year research plan to develop an ecological-economic framework for feral swine damage assessments (FSDA) and valuation. The study sought to quantify and value soil disturbance caused by feral swine trampling, rooting, and wallowing on wetland soils. The primary objective—to develop and test a rapid FSDA pro

Abstract:
Agricultural practices can reduce water quality, degrade soils and cause biodiversity loss. This in turn can disrupt natural processes that support food production. Environmentally sustainable agriculture seeks to reduce environmental damage and restore such processes. This POSTnote summarises associated land management options, agricultural policies and the constraints imposed by a new trading environment.

Abstract:
There is much to learn from the recent New Zealand and Japan earthquakes. These earthquakes produced differing levels of liquefaction-induced ground movements that damaged buildings, bridges, and buried utilities. Along with the often spectacular observations of infrastructure damage, there were many cases where well-built facilities located in areas of liquefaction-induced ground failure were not damaged. Researchers are working on characterizing and learning from these observations of both poor and good performance. The “Liquefaction-Induced Ground Movements Effects” workshop provided an opp

Full text
Abstract:
After an airfield has been attacked, temporary airfield pavement repairs should be accomplished quickly to restore flight operations. Often, the repairs are made with inadequate materials and insufficient manpower due to limited available resources. Legacy airfield damage repair (ADR) methods for repairing bomb damage consist of using bomb damage debris to fill the crater, followed by placement of crushed stone or rapid-setting flowable fill backfill with a foreign object debris (FOD) cover. While these backfill methods have provided successful results, they are heavily dependent on specific m

Abstract:
American Memorial Park (AMME) in Saipan contains a rare mangrove wetland that is known to support several endangered species. Through monitoring water quality and vegetation characteristics of the wetland for &gt;10 years we documented a declining mangrove population, an increase in invasive plant species, and declining surface water salinity. Comprehensive surveys conducted in 2014 and 2019 quantified declines in the plant community observed by park staff. Surface water salinity declined from 2009 to 2018 and no other trend in surface water quality was observed. Over the time period of the pr

Abstract:
Between 1911 and 1984, the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) conducted a large number of corrosion studies that included the measurement of corrosion damage to samples exposed to real-world environments. One of these studies was an investigation conducted between 1922 and 1940 into the corrosion of bare steel and wrought iron pipes buried underground at 47 different sites representing different soil types across the United States. At the start of this study, very little was known about the corrosion of ferrous alloys underground. The objectives of this study were to determine (i) if coatings

Abstract:
Failures in transmission pipelines are often the result of mechanical damage. The US DOT has indicated that 20 to 40 percent of the serious pipeline incidents in any given year are related to mechanical damage. This damage is due to third party activities, mishandling during construction, pipeline bedding material consolidation, or ground movement.
