Engineering geology, Transportation engineering, Traffic engineering, Geotechnical engineering, Geoengineering, Transportation Technology and Traffic Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering and Applied Earth Sciences

Summary: This volume comprises select papers presented during TRANSOILCOLD 2019. It covers the challenges and problems faced by engineers, designers, contractors, and infrastructure owners during planning and building of transport infrastructure in Arctic and cold regions. The contents of this book will be of use to researchers and professional engineers alike.

Themes -- Problems of design, construction and operation of transportation infrastructure in Arctic and cold regions -- Methods of geological survey and diagnostics -- Stability of slopes, landslides, debris flows, avalanches and disaster prevention -- Soil dynamics and earthquake engineering -- Geosynthetics in construction and reconstruction of transport facilities -- Geoenvironmental technologies in construction and reconstruction of transport facilities -- Geotechnical problems -- Experience in construction and maintenance of subgrade in cold regions -- Artificial ground freezing in transportation -- Pavement problems -- Permafrost dynamics in changing climate and under technogenic impact.
