In grouting technology, after choosing the type of grouting fluid needed for grouting, the next most important step is the layout of grouting holes, that is, grouting hole type and hole spacing. Reasonable arrangement of grouting holes and hole spacing can not only achieve the desired reinforcement effect, but also save unnecessary economic expenses. For this reason, the effective diffusion radius of slurry is firstly determined considering both the characteristics of polymer slurry and the pore structure of injected medium. Based on this, the distance between holes (triangular and rectangular) is determined. Finally, the grouting design parameters of this design scheme are applied to the disease area of Nanping Expressway in Shenzhen. The deflection value before and after grouting is detected by falling weight deflectometer (FWD). The results show that the grouting design parameters can achieve better grouting effect.

Permitting superheavy loads may increase the rate of pavement damage and the cost of maintenance. An analysis of a proposed superheavy load route (FM519) to evaluate the potential pavement damage caused by a planned superheavy load move is presented. Falling weight deflection (FWD) tests and backcalculations of layer moduli were performed on the FM519. FWD tests and backcalculation of layer moduli were performed on the pavement before and after the superheavy load was moved. ELSYM5 and BISAR were used to evaluate the pavement responses using the backcalculated layer moduli from FWD data. The predictions of surface deflections from ELSYM5 and BISAR were close to (within 10 percent of) the measured deflections from FWD tests. The FWD data and analyses show that the existing pavement structure is adequate for the planned superheavy load move. Finally, the permit was issued with the condition that the transport vehicle should be kept within the travel lanes and away from the shoulder whenever possible. FWD tests were conducted after the superheavy load move and comparisons with before superheavy load move were made. T-tests were performed to check for significant difference at the 95 percent confidence level. T-tests showed that there is no significant difference between before and after superheavy load move. Also, no significant distresses due to this superheavy load were observed after the move, and the pavement condition is consistent with the analysis performed to issue the permit.

MIL-101, a metal-organic framework material, was synthesized by the high-temperature hydrothermal method. Triethylenetetramine (TETA) modification enabled the effective grafting of an amino group onto the surface of the materials and their pore structure. The crystal structure, micromorphology, specific surface area, and pore structure of the samples before and after modification were analyzed with an X-ray diffractometer, scanning electron microscope, specific surface and aperture tester, and infrared spectrometer. The carbon dioxide adsorption properties of the samples were determined by a thermal analyzer before and after TETA modification. Results show that moderate amino modification can effectively improve the microporous structure of MIL-101 and its carbon dioxide adsorption properties. After modification, the capacity of MIL-101 to adsorb carbon dioxide decreased only by 0.61 wt%, and a high adsorption capacity of 9.45 wt% was maintained after six cycles of adsorption testing at room temperature and ambient pressure.

A neural-network-based backcalculation procedure is developed for multilayer composite pavement systems. The constructed layers are modeled as compressible elastic layers, whereas the subgrade is modeled as a Winkler foundation. The neural networks are trained to find moduli of elasticity of the constructed layers and a coefficient of subgrade reaction to accurately match a measured deflection profile. The method was verified by theoretically generated deflection profiles and falling weight deflectometer data measurements conducted at Edmonton Municipal Airport, Canada. For the theoretical deflection basins, the results of backcalculation were compared with actual elastic parameters, and excellent agreement was observed. The results of backcalculation using field test data were compared with the results obtained using WESDEF. Similar trends were observed for elastic parameters of all the pavement layers. The backcalculation procedure is implemented in a computer program called DIPLOBACK.

The pore structure and gas adsorption are two key issues that affect the coal bed methane recovery process significantly. To change pore structure and gas adsorption, 5 coals with different ranks were treated by CS2 for 3 h using a Soxhlet extractor under ultrasonic oscillation conditions; the evolutions of pore structure and methane adsorption were examined using a high-pressure mercury intrusion porosimeter (MIP) with an AutoPore IV 9310 series mercury instrument. The results show that the cumulative pore volume and specific surface area (SSA) were increased after CS2 treatment, and the incremental micropore volume and SSA were increased and decreased before and after Ro,max=1.3%, respectively; the incremental big pore (greater than 10 nm in diameter) volumes were increased and SSA was decreased for all coals, and pore connectivity was improved. Methane adsorption capacity on coal before and after Ro,max=1.3% also was increased and decreased, respectively. There is a positive correlation between the changes in the micropore SSA and the Langmuir volume. It confirms that the changes in pore structure and methane adsorption capacity due to CS2 treatment are controlled by the rank, and the change in methane adsorption is impacted by the change of micropore SSA and suggests that the changes in pore structure are better for gas migration; the alteration in methane adsorption capacity is worse and better for methane recovery before and after Ro,max=1.3%. A conceptual mechanism of pore structure is proposed to explain methane adsorption capacity on CS2 treated coal around the Ro,max=1.3%.
