Calculation of thermal stress-strain state of soil base under the building on permafrost soil

Abstract

Article presents problem statement and solution for joint calculation of temperature regime and stress-strain state of permafrost soils under building footing, with consideration of thermal impact from on-surface and buried high-temperature utilities. Based on a series of optimization tasks, a design model for stress-strain state has been developed, solutions of test problems have been obtained and analyzed to determine the degree of influence of temperature stresses and relation of the deformation characteristics of frozen soil in the negative temperature spectrum on the stress distribution and settlement values of frozen soil base under the building.
