They are often used in combination, or formed into composite bolt-and cable-supported structures, with other traditional construction methods and relevant measures. Distinct characteristics of such structures are that they are most often invisible, exposed to more severe underground corrosive environments and with strict durability requirements. A number of serious durability problems of underground structures are discussed and major achievements and advances in China and abroad in terms of durability and reinforcement measures for underground structures are reviewed, followed by comprehensive analyses. Some suggestions for those problems are put forward.展开更多

To predict the margin of safety and to reevaluate the remaining service life, the structural integrity analysis of solid propellant grains of aged rocket motors is performed at various stages of their life span. To have the reliable results from these analyses, it is mandatory to use the current physical properties of the propellant at the time of analysis. Change in physical properties due to aging is more significant at exposed surfaces. Traditional methods of assessing current physical properties may not truly rep resent the properties of the batch. The paper presents a novel technique to measure the stress strain response at the exposed surface of propellant grain using a miniature-testing device. This specially designed device is able to measure the stress response while the propellant surface is compressed at a constant rate. This measured stress strain behavior is then co-related with the physical properties measured by routine tensile tests of the similar type of propellant which is aged artificially. It is observed that there exists an excellent correlation between the measured stress values by the sensor and physical properties measured by uni-axial tensile test. This nondestructive technique provides properties of propellant grains of all the motors in the batch comprehensively. The technique is safe as well as economical as compared to the traditional methods.展开更多
