This paper presents a case study of an investigation into the responses of the surrounding ground to the horizontal twin-jet grouting method (HTJGM) in soft soil deposits of Shanghai. During the field test, the variation of pore-water pressure, lateral earth pressure, lateral displacements of the subsurface soils, and ground surface heave induced by the installation of five horizontal jet-grouted columns were monitored. The monitoring results indicate that the excess pore-water pressure reached 4 to 6 times the undrained shear strength of the soils, while maximum lateral displacements and ground surface heave were up to 80 and 17 mm, respectively. The influence range due to the installation of jet-grouted columns was between 15 and 20 times the nominal column radius. The development of prediction methods for lateral displacements and ground surface heave induced by the HTJGM installation process are presented and discussed. Results from the investigation suggest that the proposed prediction methods can be used to provide reasonable estimates of ground response and influence range of horizontal jet grouting.

The tail void grouting is a key step in shield tunnel construction and has an important influence on the loading on the surrounding soil and on the resulting settlement. In order to estimate the ground surface settlement caused by tail void grouting pressure in tunnel construction, the loading on the surrounding soil is simplified as an expansion problem of the cylindrical cavity in semi-infinite elastic space. A simple analytical formula is deduced by using the virtual image technique and Fourier transform solutions. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by case studies. The effects of elastic modulus, tail void grouting pressure, tunnel radius, and tunnel depth on the ground surface heave are conducted. The results indicate that the computed results are in accordance with Ye’s solution and it is more rational to consider the ground surface heave induced by tail void grouting pressure in the prediction of ground settlement due to shield excavation. Moreover, the ground surface heave owing to tail void grouting pressure resembled a Gaussian distributed curve. Thus, no matter the ground surface subsidence or ground surface heave can be predicted by means of adding the presented empirical formula to the Peck formula which cannot predict the ground surface heave. The ground surface heave decreases with an increase in elastic modulus. On the contrary, as the tail void grouting pressure and tunnel radius increase, the ground surface heave increases, respectively. The ground surface heave first steadily increases and then declines gradually with the tunnel depth increase.

In terms of geology, most areas in south of the Gunungkidul District in Central Java consist of the Wonosari formation limestone. The land is generally very dry and source of raw water is also difficult to reach. Findings on the existence of underground river in caves, however, indicate the potential amount of water within the area, especially in the eastern part of the Gunungkidul District. Although limited information available, some fishermen have discovered that Seropan cave contains fresh water source. This cave is situated at 65 m below the cliff. Initial exploration, which done using a multichannel resistivity method, confirmed the availability of freshwater in the cave and underground river. The isopach of cave depth is found in ranges of 80 200 m below the ground surface. The water of Seropan cave can be utilized by implementing pipeline or by drilling at the suggested point based on the interpretation results, i.e. 110o2223.6388 EL 8o42.874 SL.

An investigation had been done to Tetragonula (Tetragona) sp nest at Indralaya, South Sumatra to describe the Tetragonula sp nest that use streetlight pole as nest medium during April - May 2019. Purpossive sampling is used to select the target nest. Two streetlight pole found be used by Tetragonula sp as their home. The coordinate of location, heght from ground surface, diameter of streetlight pole, air temperature and humidity, and floral species around nest, were noted. Spot coordinate are S 30 14’ 19.2498’’ and E 1040 39’ 15,3288’’ ; 1,5 m above the ground surface, 12 cm diameter pole, highest air temperature was 35 o C at daylight (April and May 2019), 80 – 90 % humidity at April-May 2019; which Switenia macrophyla, Hevea brasiliensis, Zea mays, and Citrullus lanatus floral species are planted around. Air temperature in the pole is very high, around 40 0 C during daylight.

Bending Stresses

Existing methods for estimating the bending stresses of buried pipeline section based on the survey data for the depth of the axis of the pipeline from the ground surface are characterized by a large error between the real values of the bending stress and the values of the bending stress obtained from the calculation results based on the survey data. The purpose of this study is to improve the methodology for calculating the bending stresses of buried pipeline section based on the results of determining the depth of the axis of the pipeline from the ground surface, taking into account the design features of the pipeline and the used search equipment. Mathematical models are proposed that allow for the set value of the maximum error in determining bending stresses for a particular pipeline to choose the optimal measurement step before the survey, which will allow to reduce the error. Explanations are given on the choice of the maximum step of the study based on the strength characteristics of the pipeline. A calculation is provided that confirms the adequacy of the developed mathematical models and the possibility of their application in practice.

The results of modeling the processes of receiving and processing the signals of remote sensing of the Earth’s surface using helicopter radar and synthesizing the antenna aperture due to its placement on the rotating rotor blades are presented. The mathematical correctness of the application of the developed algorithms for processing probing signals, as well as the uniqueness of the measurements, was confirmed. At the same time, the dimensions of the synthesized aperture due to the rotation of the radiator placed at the end of the propeller blade are equivalent to a circular antenna array with a diameter of tens of meters. The functionality of the remote sensing system based on this radar meets the requirements for ice observation and navigation systems for seagoing ships off the coast. The simulation results confirm the promise of further research in this direction and can be used in the development of radar systems with synthesized antenna aperture mounted on rotating rotor blades.
