Poroelastic Theory of Ground Consolidation with Fluid and Heat Flows

本研究的目的是研究流体饱和多孔地面的缓慢变形过程。将考虑各种人为干扰和几何形状。第一类是由于从井中抽水穿过层状土壤而引起的下沉。在第二类中，将研究埋在厚层软土中的强热源引起的地面变形。最后，探讨了因采油井或加热结构引起的解冻沉降。本研究具有重要的理论和实践意义。建议颁发奖项。

The purpose of the proposed research is to investigate the process of slow deformation of porous ground saturated with fluids. Various man- made disturbances and geometries will be considered. The first category is concerned with subsidence due to pumping from a well through a layered soil. In the second category, ground deformation induced by an intense heat source buried in a thick layer of soft soil will be studied. Finally, the thaw subsidence due to heated structures or oil production wells will be investigated. The proposed research has significant theoretical and practical implications. An award is recommended.
